    Jimmy's mother was my daughter's godmother during her baptism at St.Peters Clavers Church,.... this interview takes me many years back... The Gathus were our immediate neighbors.....am 3 years older than Jimmy...and his mom and my mom are agemates and both have a history with the mau mau....my mom was a social worker with the child welfare society and used to take care of the children' of the mau mau...incidentally we were 9 kids and am the 7th born too.

    The legend of our times. 'Jimmi Ngaaathu' as its pronounced reminds me of my sister who kept reminding us that 'Jimmi Ngaaathu' is simply James Gathu. And we had a comical neighbour called Gathu by then.
