wow! The general is so articulate and friendly, you forget he is military until you look at his posture, edge of the seat, feet planted, this man is ready to spring into action without warning!.

I really liked the interview with LT. General Jonah Mwangi from the Kenya Defense Forces. His straightforward and inspiring way of answering questions was pretty impressive. It's cool how he didn't beat around the bush and just got straight to the point. It would be great if Kenya had something like the Junior ROTC program like the US- it would be awesome to have a program that helps young people develop leadership skills and all that. Also, they’ll know about requirements ahead of time such as the tattoo thing.

I am quite sure that Lt Gen Jonah Mwangi has never disappointed whoever interacts with him. Avery great Gen and always inspiring. Thank you Gen

An officer and a gentleman, I had the opportunity to interact with him professionally and it was an honor.

May the Good Lord bless you Lt Gen J.Mwangi. You are an inspiration.

Commendable job LT. GENERAL JONAH MWANGI indeed it inspiring one to us and entire country. Keep the good work.

Well trained, well cultured. Very good job General!

Good job both of you jeff for your good questions and well answering

I love the general he deserves to be the general actually...He articulates issues more than most politicians in the country...I like the defense system

Gen. You are great God bless you. Explanation on point.

These are just words, the actual thing taking place cannot be changed. I was disqualified in 1992 at Homabay after undergoing all processes and we were only remaining 7 at 14hrs. An officer asked me to disclose the person I came with! This was Greek to me! Upon telling him that I desired to join the Air-force after recruitment were announcements over the radio. He then checked my urine and claimed that it had blood stain and am sick. He thereby dismissed me by throwing my papers to the wind. However up to today my kidneys are still good and am well. So was I sick or I just had no money, person to buy me the opportunity?

This man is very knowledgeable. Thanks General for serving our country.

This guy is very smart. Wow. I am totally impressed. Good work general. You make me want to become an officer lakini miaka ishapita. 😂 Once again Good job genral!

One question how does 26 yrs have a beneficial for service men cadet so I think you should extend to 32 yrs coz training can't affect anything coz if a specialist trains up to 39 do you we should give other people opportunities

We know this all opportunity if you don't have money you cnt get 😢

They're going to recruit more Kalenjins this year, Kikuyus will be considered, anything else doesn't meet the qualifications, unless you have money. If you get recruited from any other community and you didn't pay then you are extremely special

A very sober general and a great communicator

Problem with recruitment is corruption. Many young graduated who meet all the academic and physical requirements are rejected...and those who bribe taken.

Very competent and eloquent. Good job

One day I will join military that's my passion 🥺

He is resides where I work and is a very humble man and good hearted

😅 will x-NYS be looked upon on their discharge cirtificate.concerning the year where in service i.e the one with Good n very good years differ check out please

Regarding the issue of height and weight, the KDF is backward. KDF need to adopt OSH and Ergonomics systems of fitting the job to the individual. If a weapon is 4 feet long and we have a short soldier, they can procure or modify weapons for them. Innovation is what makes armies great. That goes for USA, UK Army and others.

And why all is Kenya but other counts recruitment you take more people ?why you are not taking the same numbers each county.?
