Pio Gama Pinto: Patriot for Social Justice

By Pheroze Nowrojee

Pio Gama Pinto was assassinated in 1965, the first assassination in independent Kenya. He is one of the most important heroes of Kenya's struggle for independence. He championed social justice in post-independence Kenya and opposed a society where only a few amassed wealth and privilege: 'There is enough for all; why should a few have it all?' This accessible, easy-to-read version is appropriate for all ages.

'He is part of our history, part of what we are. We see in his work the love this man had for this country. We must honour those on whose shoulders we stand.' -Wangari Maathai, Nobel Peace Laureate
