Mûkami Kîmathi (1930 - 2023) was Dedan Kîmathi's wife, a mother and grandmother and was actively involved in the struggle for independence and played a significant role in supporting her husband's activities. She faced imprisonment and harassment from the British colonial authorities due to her involvement in the Mau Mau movement.

Field-Marshal Mûthoni wa Kîrîma (born 1931) is a retired top-ranking female fighter in the Kenya Land and Freedom Army of the Mau Mau Uprising in the 1950s. Few Mau Mau women became active fighters, and Muthoni is the only woman to have attained the Mau Mau rank of field-marshal. Please listen, enjoy and share!
