The world is mourning departed Queen Elizabeth II, but the Talai clan who originally hailed from Nandi can only collectively sigh in grief and wonder why she has refused to heed their desperate cries for 70 years.

Theirs is a story of Kenya's longest-suffering community. Their tribulations resonate with the history of Jews; targeted for extermination by Adolf Hitler's regime during the Second World War.

The Talai's resistance to the British occupation was spearheaded by their most illustrious prophet of modern times, Koitalel Arap Samoei, a military genius who harassed the superior colonial forces for over ten years.
