    No sound but it a precious history. Just to learn he was my great grandfather and I used to brag in my primary school when we would read the story book The AGIKUYU.....

    The clips pinned on his coat include one bearing the present day Kenya flag colors and even the shield! ( 8.13 ). What does that say about the man?
