Kubu Kubu information


Kubu Kubu (or Kubukubu), born Njagi wa Ikutha, was an Embu Mau Mau leader and general.[1] His nom de guerre, Kubu Kubu, means "heavy thud" in Kîembu, referencing the thud his feet made due to his heavy build.

He was the de facto Mau Mau military leader in the Embu country, and an important leader nationally, alongside Dedan Kimathi, Musa Mwariama, and Waruhiu Itote.[2]

Kubu Kubu was revered among the Embu for defending their territory from British rule, leading the community for more than ten years, and repulsing colonial settlers from the southern Kenyan highlands.
