This is where the rain started beating Kenya if he could be alive Kenya could be the way it is now in the late 70s,what a brilliant man whose fruits we still enjoy.
I've never seen this footage before. Its heart breaking. He had so much promise and I guess that must have been a threat to some people. Just think, what could have become of TM if his life wasn't cut short?

@Mwaniki Mwaniki I know exactly what I've said and mind you, I'm not tribal but hate tribal communities. Mt Kenya association work behind the scenes to manipulate power and wealth among their community and anybody they don't support gets terminated. Saitoti and Msando are other good examples.
@Mwaniki Mwaniki The way I have observed things is that Kenya couldn't be a country without Rift valley, Nyanza and Western. People from the West have been a major neutrality in Kenya, look at North Eastern, and Coast, do these people even feel Kenyan?without the western region Kenya could have been turned into a one tribe nation like Sudan and Ethiopia where the Hebesha oppress the rest economically and socially. Others could have been living as secondary Citizens. Education is the only thing holding Kenya together.
This is my first time watching this...Surely, the guy was eloquent and would've taken us to greater heights... I would therefore, pass-by along Tom Mboya rd for his remembrance... Thanks for the video...
@@mundiakarue8849 That's some tale concocted by Prof Ogot. In a dance hall! Doesn't make sense. I think it started in the early fifties (1952, I think) when suspected Mau Mau terrorists assassinated a Nairobi councillor going by the name Ofafa who happened to be a Luo. Political assassinations in Kenya did not start with Pinto.
As a country, too much innocent blood was shed needlessly for the sake of power & ethnic chauvinism. This country’s been built on negative competition & ethnicity, blood letting & exclusion. It’s no wonder, our cohesiveness is always brittle; on the brink of rupture & our level of distrust across communities is palpable! This country needs extreme re-engineering! Tragedy is it seems we do not have a Kagame in us!
Rest in peace, Son of Kenya. You lost your life to the enemies of social progress protecting and fighting for a good future for me and Motherland. I admire you Tom Joseph Mboya. But I wonder if this is the way i'll die if I become president. It's tearful that you had to die this way Son of Motherland. I love you Mboya.
THE people who did this to the Family of Tom Mboya should be very ashamed. Eventually Kenyatta, JM Kariuki and their evil cohorts died. I had thought by killing TJ Mboya and later Josiah Mwangi Kariuki that they were immortal. So what could they be telling Mboya? Ofcourse they did not meet Mboya or JM because assassins belong to hell, yet Mboya and those unjustly liquidated must be in heaven. Kenyatta was the WORST thing that happened to Kenya
This assassination really set Kenya back. Just heartbreaking stuff, seeing all the grief. God bless Kenya, and her people... the breakthrough isn't too far away.
A stream of tears cascading my cheeks.... I am a pure luo, I wonder why he was assassinated, one man who can make and amend constitution alone, may God intervene upon this Nation Kenya...... Nind gi kwe Ratego
Totally emotive. He would now be an octogenarian happily recollecting what he has done for this Nation. We would be beyond doubt a First World country had the despots not taken his life. RIP Legend TM😪😪😪
this is one of the darkest moments in the history of our nation ....I imagine he trauma that the people who witnessed the whole sanger went through.....its really sad....I wish he leaved long enough to see the current generation
Justice will be delivered if not in this life than in the hereafter. Just as Marjorie Oludhe Mackgoye said in her book coming to birth. " The country is eating it's own children "
These are some of the stupid comments I get from Kikuyus. I hate this tribalism thing. So if u were'nt Kikuyu you wouldn't miss him? Kikuyus are the majority in the country but this tribalism thing is just shameful and divisive. Wacheni ujunga
It is 50 years later, but TJ Mboya's assassination remains a major loss to Kenya. If Mboya had a chance at leadership, his clarity, purpose, focus and direction would have ushered Kenya into a first class country, very very very likely. Failed radarless leadership have seen us mark-timing on the same spot from worse to worse. We have immense potential, but that's just about it. I hope we take off the ground into the skies and match the developed nations - socially and economically.
This is how the kenya foundation was built!!! I am however very impressed by the displined Police force of which i think were still under the colonial masters for their responce as there was`nt even a single bullet used against the Demonstrators, compared to the current times.Very sad ,a promissing, brilliant Young kenyan murdered by the same Regime he had put his Hands on fire!! Dear god,dou you really hear our cries /sufferings here in kenya??? Are we not the same agai in your eyes??? Give us a sighn.
Bad CPR technique. The man is bleeding to death, instead they should rushed him to Surgery to plug the bleeding vessel, this Was part of the Assassination Plan = dont save him, let him die So is the DREAMS Of many Kenyans who expected him to be the next 2nd president of the Republic of Kenya and so is the Economic well being, That Mboya Big Dream is still missed to date in Kenya with youth unemployment topping 80%...RIP BROTHER MBOYA..
Kenya was a united force focused on development until Jomo Kenyatta pulled this nonsense! He created a disease that's still ailing the country up to date! RIP Mboya
Oh My God, African women look beautiful, fresh and healthy in this footage. Unlike what I see today, What were they eating back then? Which skin creams were they using? I wanna live in this age
Too many painful assassinations in Kenya! The Kenyan soil has seen the blood of too many of its sons and daughters innocently Murdered!! I wait for the time when we, together will stand up and say "Enough is Enough"! Tom Mboya will never rest in peace...not until his vision of economic Independence and Economic inclusion is achieved!! Pray for Kenya Mboya!!
Was Nahashon Njenga Njoroge, the alleged assassin, ever hanged? Why was the deed conducted in secrecy? Where's the proof? Why no judicial inquiry into his death? What of all those allegations of him being seen in Addis Ababa, in Tanzania, etc? Add to this the mystery of the "big man" he alluded to at his arrest, and you get a very big puzzle, one that will outlive generations. May his departed sould always rest in Heaven's heroes corner.

I wasn't born then but from everything I hear.. he was a great guy.. my dad was so inspired by this guy 👏
Perfect song to explain it...Kudos to Mbongeni Ngema for composing this record and Thandi Zulu perfoming it..
Watching this gives chills through my body . Very sad ... Tom Mboya was gentleman and a legend he will never be forgotten !
I've never seen this footage before. Its heart breaking. He had so much promise and I guess that must have been a threat to some people. Just think, what could have become of TM if his life wasn't cut short?
I had no idea how painfully sad this was...may his soul rest in peace.

its not luo its kenya, its afrika
Really sad that the best are killed and then we remain with quacks.
-Mboya
-Ouko
-JM Kariuki
-Saitoti
Pole saana
The pain sinks deep to my heart any time I watch this clip
painful then and still painful now, young, eloquent, smart, ambitious, charismatic and good looking too.
i have seen the video..with a lump in my throat..Kenya has not stopped eating its own babies..saddest thing
Viongozi wakiafrika wenye waikuwa na akili na uerevu waliuliwa na wanaendelea kuuwawa na wakoloni wenye wanataka kuendelea kunufaika na african natural resources. Tom mboya alikuwa anapigania Uhuru ya wakenya na ya waafrika
Kwa jumla, mwishowe alinyamazishwa na walewale walionyamazisha, J f kennedy, Martin Luther King, malcolm x , nakadhalika. Huyo mkenya mwenye alihukumiwa alitumiwa tu kama chombo chakutekeleza mahitaji ya wakolini, ndiposa ilete chuki kati ya wakenya ili waendelee kutengana na kupigana , na huku wanachukua mali yetu wakenya na africa kwa jumla , kwa manufaa ya nchi yao ngambo.sasa wamebaki wanasiasa duni wenye hawawezi kusema ngwe mbele ya waingereza , Wakenya tigutuke.

Thank you.
kenya didn't eat its baby, Kenyattas government did.
All the tears will be brought back with laughter one day!
true leaders are never given chance ..... but one day ... we are getting there ... Tom R.I.P
Kenya seemed more united then than now, the song makes it even more sad< although after watching i feel healed and at peace
Kenya was, much better then than now
Rest in Enternal peace Tom,the seens of your last breath are so painful to bear,may God Almighty favour you on the day of resurrection,Amen.
The Struggle continues. The Luo are a Powerful people. We Live on.
Was also a kamba
Very powerful. We kikuyus know that
*Kenyans are
We lost a great hero, his legacy still lives on in Kenyans
sad...this man is the reason America got a black president
Jamal fathela no he isn't fuck you
Jamal, true, God used Tom Mboya to facilitate for Obama senior to Hawaii. God bless Tom Mboya and Barack Obama Senior and President Barack Obama
@@brandonleflore4409 Tom mboya is the one who helped Obama senior to go and study in the USA.
jamal fathela get your facts right. trully he wasnt a benefially .
His star was shining too bright and it scared the old guys.Youthful,charismatic,intelligent and witty.All taken away by greed.
yah i agree with you mr ogutu,
Rip my grandma loved you so much and gave his last born your name😢😭😭 thanks for the freedom that you fighted for😭😭
Thanks for the memories but stay with souls forever
A true revolutionary. We miss him.
This is the fear that haunts one tribe in kenya about a Luo presidency.
Lets fight tribalism
That same tribe wanted and loved this man and perhaps the only "outsider" they would have votef for
@@christmt108 But Killed him and Ouko too.

The genesis of luo Kikuyu hatred
william wekesa it started in 1925

This further created bad blood between the Luo and Kikuyu

Soo painful 😭 I heartfelt condolences to the family, friends and whole African
They killed TJ because they knew how genius he definitely was.He was super hero and eloquent.

Unfortunately the greatest have their lives cut short
if only the like of JM and Tom Mboya were free to execute their dream for Kenya, I believe Kenya would have been transformed immensely.
RIP hero,,, you played a good war
Totally emotive. He would now be an octogenarian happily recollecting what he has done for this Nation. We would be beyond doubt a First World country had the despots not taken his life. RIP Legend TM😪😪😪

Jomo could just assasinate anybody who showed signs of becoming more powerful than him. So sad!
quite sorrowful.but come to think of it.colored video footages were not in existence by then.so who is the man lying in the coffin with a blue suit?
1969.coloured videos existed.
Quite sad to watch this. This is where we first derailed as a country! Curse upon those who plotted and killed legend Tom Mboya
How long shall they kill our prophet yet we .....
He was seen as a perfect successor of Jomo Kenyatta before the right time so eliminating him was the only option.
