VERY INTERESTING Smurfy Kirgit First.... nobody fought for National independence... .. thats the biggest lie ever..... iliterate snuff taking guerillas were fighting for their lands.... not our country.... not the kenyan area in square footage.... maumau had no knowledge or inclination about the existence of the giriama, teso, nandi, luo, kamba maasai etc.... who make up kenya.... they just wanted to reclaim their immediate lands........ every community fought for their land with the nandi leading the longest resistance battle of eleven years, locking out the white settler until Koitalel Samoei was finally assasinated after being tricked into a "truce" meeting. Secondly, forget the propaganda spread to us by our first government that was spread through literature syllabus.... via The Jomo Kenyatta Foundation. V.O.K and KBC also went a long way to propagate certain notions only intent at trying to validate the feeling of entitlement by some.... kindly read about all african countries from angola down south all the way up to east and central africa.... all these countries attained independence between 1960 - 1965. Its not a coincidence.... its because the europeans were all returning back the same time.... the few remnants and the murders against them by blacks is actually what caused the settlers to also kill, maim and torture. Never in our wildest dreams, even if Africa had been one country, would our primitive society win a war against Britain had the English laid claim to the continent by force. i by no means negate or trivialize the crimes the british comitted against us.... i just feel like Africans whine too much instead if using their history as a tool to develop. The reason Japan is the worlds third largest economy yet it has an area the size of kenya is because, they once thought they were tough.... and picked a war with the Americans. One small american aircraft obliterated Japan and sent it into a third world economy and years of desease and poverty. That Plane was over Hiroshima and Nagasaki.The japanese quit the war, and concentrated henceforth in their own development. That is why they have sony, toshiba, toyota, nissan, panasonic, canon, mitsubishi, subaru etc, from Japan. The biggest consumer brands. And americans are their biggest trade partners and global allies. We must stop being bigotted, we must harness our strengths and move our continent forward... ourselves
