War veterans said that for close to six decades after independence, they were yet to be recognised by law. By PETER MBURUMore by this AuthorThe National Assembly Committee on Sports, Culture and Heritage will today meet the Kenya Law Reforms Commission (KLRC) over a petition by Mau Mau War Veterans Association’s push for recognition. The war veterans are seeking recognition by law as the movement which fought for Kenya’s independence. The association, however, accepted to have the name ‘Mau Mau’ dropped after MPs suggested that a name with a national face should be used. Mr Kahengeri, however, said they were not opposed to change of name as long as the law recognised their movement.
