[Daily article] September 22: Jomo Kenyatta

Jomo Kenyatta (c. 1897 – 1978) was an anti-colonial activist and
politician who governed Kenya as its prime minister from 1963 to 1964
and then as its first president from 1964 to his death in 1978. He was
the country's first indigenous head of government and played a
significant role in the transformation of Kenya from a colony of the
British Empire into an independent republic. In 1947, he began lobbying
for independence from British colonial rule through the Kenya African
Union, attracting widespread indigenous support. In 1952, he was among
the Kapenguria Six arrested and charged with masterminding the anti-
colonial Mau Mau Uprising. Although protesting his innocence—a view
shared by later historians—he was convicted. Upon his release in 1961,
he led the Kenya African National Union party until his death. During
his presidency, he secured support from both the black majority and
white minority with his message of reconciliation.
