In the past, several attempts were made to identify the spot where the body was buried but in vain until now. When the previous president, Mwai Kibaki, came to power in 2003, he promised to make finding the grave a priority. A number of people who claimed to have witnessed the burial led officials to spots within Kamiti prison but they found nothing. Instead, the government built a monument in central Nairobi in honour of the Mau Mau fighter.#KimathisGraveIdentified pic.twitter.com/gp6YwgPQuK
