Struggle for Independence in Kenya

Kenya was under colonial rule for several years. In 1952, Mzee Jomo Kenyatta formed the Mau Mau movement so as to help other Africans to attain independence. On 20th october 1952, Kenyatta with other leaders who had joined him were arrested & taken to Kapenguria. All the people in Gatundu division were angry. Kenyatta was released in 1961. Many Africans died during the war but after all, Africans had got their independence and Mzee Jomo Kenyatta was the president of Kenya on 12th December 1964. This was a great solution to a problem that had threatened many people.
