Our sacred mandate

The trust deed in action

The KUMPHCO Trust is the legal and intergenerational vehicle for turning the veterans' final wishes into enduring national reality.

The veterans' vision

Our heroes, now in their twilight years, seek to leave a legacy that secures the spiritual and cultural foundation of Kenya. Their call is clear: reconciliation, heritage preservation, veteran welfare, and monuments that testify to sacrifice.

We are building an intergenerational bridge of gratitude and action so that freedom is remembered not as a date, but as a living covenant.

"Until the great Thingira wa Iregi is built in Githunguri Kiawairera and inaugurated by the necessary ceremonies and purification rites, the country will never be free of the ills brought by the coloniser, neither benefit from them."

History and agenda

Githunguri Kiawairera: the cradle of sovereignty

We have added the Githunguri Kiawairera history into the website as a dedicated story arc and reference page, so future updates can grow from a proper archive instead of a single landing page.

From prophecy to restoration

The history document traces Githunguri Kiawairera from Mugo wa Kibiru's prophetic mandate, through the Inorero vision of the 1930s, the sacrifice of the State of Emergency, and today's struggle to preserve the site before it is overwhelmed by development.

Prophetic seed

Mugo wa Kibiru and the sacred geography

Githunguri Kiawairera was marked out as a place of divine encounter, national healing, and covenant restoration long before the colonial period reached its peak.

1930s to 1952

The Inorero vision

Communities across Greater Kiambu pooled resources to establish the Kenya Teachers College at Githunguri, an indigenous center of sharpening, leadership, and Pan-African political imagination.

1953 to 1954

The altar of sacrifice

Thirty-nine freedom fighters were executed at the Githunguri Gallows, turning the site from a place of learning into a place of martyrdom sealed by blood.

The present task

Heritage before infrastructure

The modern agenda is to restore the Thingira wa Iregi, revive the Inorero vision, honor the martyrs, and secure dignity for veterans and their descendants.

Strategic pillars

Three commitments shaping the trust

The trust's work joins spiritual peace, heritage stewardship, and practical welfare into one accountable mission.

1. Spiritual and cultural covenant

Honoring prophecy, prayer, peace, and the customs that root national identity.

  • Raise the Kigogona kia Ngai altar as a monument of gratitude.
  • Restore the Thingira and Kiriri as living cultural spaces.
  • Preserve foundational customs for future generations.
  • Support the Inorero vision for indigenous scholarship.

2. Heritage, memorials, and sustainable value

Protecting sites of sacrifice while creating dignified public memory and cultural use.

  • Memorialize the Gallows and key martyrdom sites.
  • Build monuments, museums, and historical interpretation spaces.
  • Safeguard Githunguri's heritage footprint from erasure.
  • Develop cultural sites that can sustain long-term stewardship.

3. Welfare, unity, and accountability

Ensuring the people who carried the nation's freedom are treated with dignity now.

  • Advance reconciliation, peace, and national unity.
  • Support landless freedom fighter veterans and their households.
  • Prioritize veterans and beneficiaries in program allocation.
  • Manage donations and partnerships with clear fiduciary responsibility.

Veterans' urgent call

Their remaining time is precious.

Our revered freedom fighters seek to witness the fulfillment of a covenant of peace, heritage, and dignity for the nation they built. The opportunity to honor them is now, not later.
