It was a short, solemn, humble send-off for a fallen Mau Mau veteran who risked his life countless times to offer both financial and material support to Mau Mau soldiers fighting to liberate Kenya from colonial rule.
But despite the sacrifice he made for his country, Mwangi Njuguna - alias Daudi Keru, 92, was laid to rest at his farm in Irigithathi village in Kieni, Nyeri County, surrounded by less than 50 desolate family members and friends on August 17.
