    And as per rumours, they died in a car crash after recording this song. I grew up listening to this song every 12 December since 1972. The joining Kanu, coming back with Katiba and independence in 1963 makes me tear. But it's raising the flag in 1964 that finishes me. Yes, from then on, every time the Kenyan flag is raised, it's because we are not being honoured but identified as giants. That old man instilled in us the attitude of winning. Best athletes, first controversial and only Nobel prize winner for matters nature conservation, we even sired America's first black president, A teacher priest from Kenya made us proud, our Kenyan girl made Whitney Houston's vocals sound like crap ....etc. You must be a Kenyan to understand the passion and hidden message behind this song.

    More than 40 years since I first heard this song it still gives me goosebumps. It is truly a historical song that generations to come will still listen to. I thank God that I have lived to see all the 4 post independence presidents of Kenya and hope to see the 5th. Forever proud to be kenyan 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪

    Growing up in the 1970s and 1980s no Kenyatta Day was complete without this song Wimbo wa Historia written by Mwalimu Enock Ondego and originally sang by the Mwakigwena Choir from what is now Kwale County at the Coast.
