Most importantly, during the height of multi-party politics, we had many detained Kenyans. She led a protest at Uhuru Park which led to the release of political prisoners. If there is somebody who has a right of something to be named after her, it is none other than Prof. Wangari Maathai. I support the Hon. Member for Kamukunji in the Petition.
