Kungu Karumba

He was one of six legendary Mau Mau freedom fighters, including Kenya’s future President, Jomo Kenyatta, whom the British colonial government arrested and tried in a hastily made-up court in a small town in north-western Kenya called Kapenguria, convicted and locked up in jail and detention for nearly a decade before the country’s independence. He was the only one of the Kapenguria Six who did not go into politics after being set free, preferring to resume his business career instead. But two decades later he would send shocks waves through the country’s political system when he mysteriously disappeared never to be seen again following a business trip to military dictator Idi Amin’s Uganda.

Kenyatta Jomo

He was Kenya's first President. No one had a greater impact on Kenya’s history than he did. No leader elicited such intense emotions from friend and foe alike. Few African heads of state had such total control of the affairs of their nations as he did. Few could match his ruthlessness in the conduct of politics, and probably none were held in greater awe and esteem by their fellow citizens than this legendary freedom fighter.
