SECOND LIBERATION IN KENYA

THE Memory of ruling party KANU in Kenya



Moi and Kenyatta regime



Mwandawiro Mghanga was among founder members of the Students Organization of Nairobi University, SONU. In 1985 he was expelled from the University of Nairobi on claims that he had become too radical, after he inspected a guard of honour mounted by fellow students. He ended up spending fours years in detention. On our continuing series, the second liberation, Mwandawiro Mghanga opens up about his struggle and painfully narrates how he almost lost his life during his last month in detention at the Kibos prison. He was saved by public protests organized by his wife, and his lawyer at the time, current Bungoma senator, Moses Wetangula.
