Jomo Kenyatta




"A big, paunchy man, with... a theatrically monstrous ebony elephant-headed walking stick... dressed in European tweed jacket and flannel slacks." British journalist 1947

"At the time, too cautious to give anything anything away to a white stranger, the black leader conversed in a series of equivocal grunts, ‘Unh-hunh!’"
