      I would suggest that the ministry of culture of Kenya to due weight to the song and make it compulsory to be sang in all community gatherings especially at schools, it very sensational and the composer of the song be rewarded accordingly if ever he is still alive ,I know he is a Luo ,and these men (luos) are really good in music
      The song is a national heritage and should the sung before news broadcast or shortly before big events like speeches by head of state, when Kenyan National team plays
      Though I'm from Tanzania ,still I find it relevant as if it was composed for our father of Nation the late Julius Kambarage Nyerere
      Big up Mr Ondigo the composer

    Lyrics to the song
    Wimbo huu ni wimbo wa historia watu wote mnaombwa msikize kwa makini
    Ilikua oktoba 52 watu wote tulisikia kenyatta ameshikwa
    Hakushikwa kenyatta peke yake lakini alishikwa na mabigwa wa uhuru
    Oooooh ooohh ooohhh
    Ilikua kilio nchnii kenya watu wote tuliona huzuni mwingi sana
    Wakina baba kina mama na watoto wote walilia machozi wakisema wooooi wooooiiii woi tunataka Kenyatta aachiliwe
    Baba taifa alipotoka gerezani aliwakuta wajumbe wetu wametengana vibaya sana
    Kisha yake baba taifa alikata shauri moja kujiunga na chama chetu Kanu
    Aliongoza wajumbe paka ulaya kufika huko alipigwa na mayai yaliyooza
    Baba taifa hakujali alishinda na kurudi na katiba ya nchi yetu hapa Kenya
    Ilipofika december kumi na mbili sitini na tatu mzee wetu alinyakua uhuru kenya
    Kisha yake december sitini na nne mzee wetu alipandisha bendera jamuhuri
    Mzee wetu alituomba tusahau yaliyopita badala yake tuijenge nchi yetu
    Alisema Harambee tuungane na hivi sasa tumejua harambee ni umoja
    Asante baba wetu kweli we asante baba wetu

    Growing up in the 1970s and 1980s no Kenyatta Day was complete without this song Wimbo wa Historia written by Mwalimu Enock Ondego and originally sang by the Mwakigwena Choir from what is now Kwale County at the Coast.
    Leyla Mohammed, a school girl was later to give life to the song some years back.

    A very touching legendary song that is a poignant reminder of how far we have come as a nation. I remember as a child in nursery school this song would make me shade tears. I didn't know why the song would move me to tears but today I now understand it is the sobering reminder of the pride in me as a Kenyan. Let me book this space to register my gratitude to our late Father of the Nation and all the Fallen Heroes who sacrificed so much for us and our beloved nation. We may not have attained all that we would wish to attain as Nation. but I Thank God for where we have come from and where we are today . Cheers

    And as per rumours, they died in a car crash after recording this song. I grew up listening to this song every 12 December since 1972. The joining Kanu, coming back with Katiba and independence in 1963 makes me tear. But it's raising the flag in 1964 that finishes me. Yes, from then on, every time the Kenyan flag is raised, it's because we are not being honoured but identified as giants. That old man instilled in us the attitude of winning. Best athletes, first controversial and only Nobel prize winner for matters nature conservation, we even sired America's first black president, A teacher priest from Kenya made us proud, our Kenyan girl made Whitney Houston's vocals sound like crap ....etc. You must be a Kenyan to understand the passion and hidden message behind this song.
