Jomo Kenyatta was elected Kenya’s first Prime Minister, in 27/April/
1963, following that country’s independence from Britain. In 1964 he became the
first President of the Republic of Kenya.
A few years earlier, Kenyatta had been sentenced to hard
labour and was restricted following his arrest in 1952 related to allegations
of his complicity in the Mau Mau rebellion. He was released on 14 August 1961.
