Produktbeschreibung

At the heart of a nation's identity lies the moment it breaks free from its chains. For Kenya, this pivotal moment came in 1963, setting a course that would be both celebrated and challenged. Amidst this backdrop, we follow Salimo, a man whose life is intertwined with Kenya's political and professional evolution. His interactions with international allies and the Kenyan people he serves deeply influence his path. 'Hakuna Matata' isn't just a phrase; it embodies the resilience of Kenya's youth and the spirit of a nation that refuses to be subdued. Yet, the shadow of the ruling elite looms large, marked by violence, political games, and rampant corruption. From the era of Jomo Kenyatta to the tumultuous reign of President Moi, the narrative captures the highs and lows of a country in flux. But through it all, the Kenyan spirit remains unbroken. The people, especially the youth, remain hopeful, forging ahead, shaping and being shaped by their nation's journey. Dive into a tale of resilience, politics, and the indomitable spirit of a nation and its people.

Autorenporträt

Peter Nyarang'o was born in Kenya, the first-born in the family of seven, four girls and three boys. His grandfather moved the family from the top of Manga escarpment in the then Kisii highlands southwards to virgin land, where he curved out what was then considered huge tract but in effect a couple of hectares! Much later when the colonial authorities presented him with a choice to host a school or church, without second thoughts, he chose the Seventh Day Adventist Church. "Unlike the school, the church grows beyond its borders without eating up your land," was his logic. From this humble origin, his eldest grandson obtained earlier education before venturing into schools in various parts of the country, and university, graduating in medicine before specialising in surgery and public health. He has worked for universities and governments in Eastern Africa, the horn of Africa and Southern Africa. He is married with four children.
