- Mukuuri abstract "Mûkûûrî is a sub-location and township in Runyenjes Division, in Embu County, Kenya, with a population of about 15,000 people. It lies on the green, rolling hills of the Mount Kenya slopes. It is home to four public primary schools, including Kubu Kubu Memorial Boarding School and Mûragarî, which is among the oldest schools in Embu and Kîrînyaga districts. Mukuuri is also home to the historic Kîrîmîri Forest Hill. The 800-acre forest was popular during Kenya's freedom war the Mau Mau. Embu's most renowned freedom fighter Kubu Kubu made the forest his main hideout. He was killed by the colonialists early 1950s. The colonial rulers burnt his body to ashes on the present location of Kubu Kubu Memorial School. General China, in his book The Mau Mau General, says women and children were forced to clap and sing as the body turned into ashes. This angered the residents and more Mau Mau fighters like Kaviu îtina were recruited. The area has produced a number of leaders scaling national and international levels. They include current Embu Governor Martin Nyaga Wambora, and KASNEB founder and former MP Stanley Nyaga Kithung'a. Others are academics like leading Kenyan geneticist Dr Njiruh Nthakanio and veteran Embu Knut secretary general Mohammed Gakinya. There are also religious leaders like former Embu Anglican Bishop Moses Njue (1992-2006), Embu Bishop of National Independent Church of Kenya (Nica) Bishop Amos Njiru (1993*-2003*), and business leaders including Richard Nyaga, who served as MD of national carrier Kenya Airways (1981-1985) and later steered privatisation of KQ again as its Managing Director in 1999-2003.. Mzee Kariuki Kobuthi, the man who famously treated President Jomo Kenyatta by cutting off his uvula in 1960s when Kenyatta was very ill, also lives here.The timezone in Mukuuri is Africa/NairobiSunrise at 06:39 and Sunset at 18:46.
