The Lulus Band - Kun'gu Karumba + Z.K. Part II (1975 d.k.undugu 7") Kikuyu

A contemporary document and rare 7" from Kenya.
It's about Kungu Karumba. A kenyan politician and opinion leader before independence in 1963. He was among the group of leaders called the "Kapenguria Six" who were detained by the colonialists. The group consisted of:
1. Kungu Karumba (Kikuyu)
2. Achieng Oneko (Luo)
3. Paul Ngei (Kamba)
4. Fred Kubai (Kikuyu)
5. Jomo Kenyatta (Kikuyu) later became the first president of Kenya
6. Bildad Kagia (Kikuyu)
After being released from prison he later disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Those frequent incidence those days left a lot of questionmarks.
Who will answer these questions?
