Today we bid farewell to our deputy commanding general for Operations, Maj. Gen. Patrick J. Donahoe. He's better known in these parts as @PatDonahoeArmy. He came to us from @drum10thmtn in late 2018, and as he departs today, he's leaving us a better organization. THREAD! 
Eighth Army has a long and proud history - but not much attention went into the days before June 25, 1950 - the start of the Korean War. The "O" changed that - and last year's 75th anniversary celebration was in large part a result of his drive and reverence for our past.
He led the effort to change the enduring narrative of Korea as a solo hardship tour, He turned that around, leading the #AssignmentofChoice initiative, showing Soldiers and families the new facilities, top schools, and the 15 hour head start to their Asian bucket list travel.
#AmKenyan 1. We have systems in Kenya. Though weak and easily compromised, as law abiding citizens we must test them and demand for improvements. Our leadership continues to abuse power and ignore our constitution. This is what we have been dealing with this week.

#AmKenyan 2. Last Saturday, while attending a family event in Muranga, I received a frantic call from @atty_kim asking where I was because she had received a threatening phone call from @MikeSonko about a post she had copy-pasted on our FB page Buyer Beware.
#AmKenyan 3. The post alleged there was corruption happening at City Hall. Atty declined to bring the post down. What followed were more threatening calls to the other admin @JacksonNjeru254 and a sustained online campaign to troll us using several pseudo accounts
#AmKenyan 1. Dear #KOT. I want to remind you it took 2yrs 8months for you to campaign for #FreeSSudan4. It is because of you that they are now with their families. Your consistent support saved their lives.
With this in mind let us look at the #SwitchOffKPLC
Campaign.

#AmKenyan 2. Are we cowards, ignorant for insisting #SwitchOffKPLC campaign, which is about ALL Kenyans, cannot be pushed under the rug because of a VAGUE 'Out of court settlement' that doesn't STOP the CRIMINAL outfit that is @KenyaPower from exploiting us?

#AmKenyan 3. During #FreeSSudan4 campaign, there was a core team of activists and family members that were strategising, holding meetings, planning for action to take. The ENTIRE #KOT could not be a part of that team. That does not mean you were not IMPORTANT
