{"text": "Observation"}
{"text": "Atomic radius of elements in the same period decrease successively acrossalong a period from left to right"}
{"text": "Explanation"}
{"text": "Acrossalong the period from left to right there is an increase in nuclear charge from additional number of protons and still additional number of electrons entering the same energy level"}

{"text": "iFrom the table 1and 2 above atomic radius of Sodium 0157nM is higher than that of Magnesium0137nM This is because Magnesium has more effective nuclear attraction on the outer energy level than Sodium hence pulls outer energy level more nearer to its nucleus than sodium"}

{"text": "iiiIonic radius therefore decrease acrossalong the period from Lithium to Boron in period 2 and from Sodium to Aluminium in period 3This is because the number of electrons donatedlost causes increased effective nuclear attraction on remaining electrons energy levels"}
{"text": "iv Nonmetals form stable ion by gainingacquiringaccepting extra electron in the outer energy level The extra electrons increases the repulsion among electrons and reduces the effective nuclear attraction on outer energy level The outer energy level therefore expandenlargeincrease in order to accommodate the extra repelled electrons The more electrons gainedacceptedacquired the more repulsion and the more expansion to accommodate them and hence biggerlarger atomic radius eg"}

**INTRODUCTION TO HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT** **THE MEANING OF HISTORY** History is an account of events that took place in the past. History may also be defined as a branch of knowledge which deals with past events of human beings and their response to their environment over the years.R.G Collingwood, in his book The Idea of History (OUP 1994) defined history as a science concerned with the human actions in the past, pursued by interpretation of evidence for the sake of Human self knowledge. That history is a science because it involves finding out things about the past Humankind. For example, the origin of Man, why he was a toolmaker, why he domesticated animals and plants. These are questions that provoke scientific curiosity. The three definitions of History from the above are:
History is the past of anything; of earth, man, disease or animals History is a branch of knowledge dealing with past events History is a science concerned with past Human actions
Since History at secondary level is specifically concerned with the past as it relates to humankind and his response to his environment over the years, the working definition of history is therefore;
History is the endless story of mankinds actions and events affecting him in the past. Closely related to the term history is the term**PREHISTORY**.Prehistory refers to the unrecorded history- those activities that humans engaged in before writing and drawing were invented as ways of storing information. Such information is gained from songs, myths, stories, artifacts, fossils and the language of a people. A historical event needs to have recorded evidence in order to be referred to as a historical fact **Characteristics of historical events**
They must have evidence. Historical information must be written or unwritten. Historical events only concern man. Historical events dwell mainly on the past happenings. Historical events must contain elements of truth.
The study of humankinds past can be classified systematically into three;
Social history- dealing with the traditions, values and cultural practices of a people Economic history; dealing with the means of livelihood of a people, such as hunting,
gathering, agriculture and trade.
Political history; dealing with the control system in a society, for example maintenance
of law and order, leadership and security. **THE MEANING OF GOVERNMENT** Derived from the verb govern, government means to exercise authority over. To rule or control. Or having power to direct or conduct the policies and public affairs of a country or an institution. In our study, the term government refers to a group of people within a state or a country given authority to organize, direct and control the affairs of the state or country.In Kenya, the government has three arms. **The legislature:**- Commonly referred to as parliament, this is a law making arm of government. It includes the National assembly and the president. **The executive:**- this is the arm of government which implements laws. It includes the president, the cabinet and the civil service. **The judiciary:**- this is the arm of government responsible for seeing that the laws made are constitutional, that they are followed and that those who break them are punished. It is commonly referred to as the courts.Jean Jacques Rousseau, in his book,**The Social** **Contract**, describes government as an intermediate body set up by the subjects to ensure equity (fairness) and the execution of laws while maintaining social and political liberty In this sense, government is not dictatorial since its authority is derived from the people. People must however be free to choose their leaders, even remove those in power and replace them with others, in order to ensure the existence of the principal of fairness. **FORMS OF GOVERNMENT** There are four forms of government: **Democratic government** This is a type of government in which rulers regularly seek public mandate through popular vote. Such governments are based on the principles of free and fair elections. According to Abraham Lincoln, an American statesman, they are governments of the people, for the people and by the people.In such a government, freedoms and rights are provided for in the constitution that governs the law of the nation. **Aristocratic government** **Aristos** best **Kratos**- powers An aristocracy is a form of government in which a group of people from the highest social class the royalty- in a society rule over others. Any member of the nobility can seek election or appointment to a government office while other citizens who are less privileged are there to be ruled.The King or Queen is the head of government while senior positions in the gover-nment are given to the privileged members from among the nobles. The nobles are considered superior to others human beings because of the wealthy family back-ground they are born into and their superior education. They are considered a rare breed of people. **Monarchical government** This is a form of government where democracy is practiced but aristocratical power is respected. Parliament is the supreme organ but the monarchy- the royalty that are in power be it the king or queen is retained as a tradition, and respected as head of state. Monarchical governments are classified into two;Absolute monarchy: - which refers to the unrestricted power of the Head of State. The monarchy is dictatorial. Constitutional monarchy;- The monarchical power , which is restricted is determ-ined by what is spelt out in the constitution. Such a system of government is found in Lesotho and Britain. **Dictatorial government** Dictatorship is a system of government where the ruler has total power over his subjects. Dictators are the sole authority where they rule. They make the law and execute justice and exercise their rule forcefully, suppressing their subjects at will. They curtail freedom of other subjects and impose their will over others.Examples of world dictators; Adolf Hitler of Germany who instigated the Germans into believing they were superior race and incited them against the Jews. Idi Amin of Uganda who ruled with a rod of iron NB; the most ideal form of government is where the subjects go to the ballot to elect the people to lead them. Governments play the important function of maintaining law and order. **Importance of studying history** a) History enables us to appreciate peoples evolution, origin of cultures and development and hence further good relations and remove biases and prejudices about other people. b) When we study history, we appreciate peoples contribution to national develop- pment. E.g. freedom fighters hence the importance of mutual and social responsi-bility. c) It helps us to know the origin of mankind, his development and the progress he has made to this day. d) We are able to understand our culture and appreciate the culture of other people. e) it instills a sense of patriotism and nationalism among citizens as they learn of the past political developments of their country. Its study inspires strong feelings of ones heritage and the sense of belonging to a particular country. f) It helps us understand the interdependence of mankind and hence the need for cooperation. g) It influences career choice. The study of history leads to various professions. E.g. law, diplomacy, church, politics, teaching, and administration. h) The study of history helps us comprehend the social, economic and political developments of our societies i) It gives time and space to past events. Through the study of history, we learn about the time and place where an event took place. E.g. we know when Mau Mau uprising broke out (1948) and know when Kenya gained independence. j) It helps us develop a critical mind as we try to explain historical events. Historians will ask why, when and how. k) It provides intellectual fulfillment to the learner. Through an in -depth study of history, ones mind is enriched. **Importance of studying government** a) It helps us to appreciate the importance of government. b) Helps us understand how laws are made and enforced c) Helps us understand the organs of the state and the powers vested in them d) Helps us understand how government raises and spends revenue. e) Helps us compare our government system with other systems of government in other countries. f) Understand how development policies are formulated and implemented. g) It makes us know our roles as citizens and the roles of the leaders who govern us. This makes better law-abiding citizens. h) Its study helps us understand our responsibilities as well as the limitations within which e must operate for the well-being of every member of the society. i) It helps us appreciate the constitution and the process of making and reviewing laws and statutes. j) It influences career choices. For example, those who choose to specialize in public administration will find the study of government very useful. **SOURCES OF INFORMATION ON HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT** There three main sources of information on history and government; a) Unwritten sources. b) Written sources. c) Electronic sources **Unwritten sources** This refers to historical information which is not recorded in writing.Unwritten sources of historical information include oral traditions, linguistics (languages), Anthropology (culture) archaeology, paleontology and genetics. **Oral traditions** This refers to the practice of handing down historical information by word of mouth from one Generation to the next. This forms a very important source of historical information especially where exists a non-literate society who might not be able to read. Oral traditions include folk tales, proverbs, songs and stories. Songs, proverbs folktales and stories told to a younger generation have been very instrumental in the passing of information from one generation to the other. For example, a song about our struggle for independence in Kenya passes very important information to the younger generation, who not yet had born at that time. **Advantages of oral traditions as a source of information** a. Oral traditions hands over historical facts from one generation to another in the absence of written records. b. It is the best source of historical information since even the illiterate can learn their h history using oral traditions c. It is also a form of entertainment. For example through songs, folktales stories and proverbs, people get entertained. d. It complements other sources of information. e. The source of information is captivating especially if it is narrated by a person who participated in the event himself. For example, an Ex- World War II veteran narrating about the war. **Disadvantages of oral traditions as a source of information** a. The truth and correctness of oral traditions become unreliable especially when the narrator deliberately conceals some information or lies. People tend to conceal their failures while talking so much about their success. b. Information can b exaggerated as they are transmitted by elders to successive generations. At times it is difficult to differentiate between what is real and what is imagined. c. Some information or facts may be forgotten or omitted since oral traditions depend heavily on human memory. This makes the information passed unreliable. d. Dates of information may be lacking. The source may not give correct chronology of events because it depends on human memory. It is common that people forget important dates and information about a particular past event. e. It is an expensive method. One has to pay for the informants transportation, lunch and accommodation. A historian may also need to travel to far places to find information. f. It is time consuming. One requires a lot of time to interview one individual. Where many people are to be interviewed, it may take a long time. **Linguistics** This refers to the scientific study of languages. Historical linguistics is the study of language as it changes n the course of time. It seeks to trace the principles of language change and establish the current genealogical classification of a particular language. Such a study helps in discovering language form, content, vocabulary and historical experiences of the people who speak the language. Distribution of language and relationship between languages is important to a historian. People who speak related languages may be assumed to have a common origin, be connected, or had been in close contact at sometime in the past.Variations between languages of the same family can show how long ago the break in contact occurred. **Advantages of linguistics as a source of information** a. Through linguistics, Facts can be obtained about the movement of people and their relationship. Such information helps experts to correctly group languages according to language families. b. It helps us understand communities better as people with a common language may have common origin. It is good for establishing facts on origin, migration and settlement. c. Linguistics complements other sources of historical information. For example, language as a medium of communication helps those using oral tradition to gather information from various sources. d. Language has enabled historical linguists to discover links between different people which were previously unknown. E.g. it is now known that the Bantus had a common origin and possibly spoke one language. However due to long periods of separation between various Bantu groups, through migrations, these groups may not understand each others language today. e. Linguistics helps in the dating of migration of people. Language drawn from a parent language will change in a certain way and rate through time. When comparing parent language with derived language, it is possible to know how long the derived language has independently from the parent language. E.g. Sheng language and Kiswahili (parent language). **Limitations in the use of linguistics as a source of information** a. It is time consuming/learning a language takes a long time therefore delaying acquisition of information. b. There is a danger of omitting a word when translating a language. In the process, vital information about a peoples history may be lost. c. Inaccurate information can be passed on where wrong words are borrowed from other languages. d. Some words may just be difficult to understand. e. Some languages have become archaic and irrelevant hence difficult to translate. f. Misinterpretation of words may make them difficult to understand. g. Linguistic analysis for classification purposes may fail to take into account languages with time. h. One word may have different meanings in different languages. This can easily confuse a researcher. For example, Nyoro in Kikuyu means smooth, while the same word in Luo means yesterday. i. Lack of original speakers in the language under study limits research findings. **Anthropology** This is the study of human beings, their origin, development, customs, beliefs, and social attributes like music, dance, drama, and religious beliefs and practices. Anthropologists have to live among the people under study in order to experience their way of life in order to understand and explain structures of societies, forms of social organization, institutions, descent, marriage, forms of government, systems of inheritance, religious customs and cultural values.The anthropological description of the beliefs and customs of a people will help the historian to determine the cultural past of the people **Advantages of anthropology as a source of information** a. By living among the people, anthropologists help to discover, understand and explain structures of societies, forms of social organization, cultures, etc. b. Anthropologists assist historians to determine the cultural past of the people. c. It also gives a deeper understanding of a particular aspect of a peoples culture. Limitations in the use of anthropology as a source of information a. It is an expensive method as it involves living among the people. b. It is a time-consuming method of acquiring information. c. It is difficult for a researcher to adapt to the environment since the people they are studying may be of a totally different culture. Where they succeed in adapting, they face the risk of losing their own culture. d. People under study may try to behave differently when the researcher is around. A researcher may therefore miss important details. **Genetic studies** Genetics is the scientific study of the ways in which characteristics are passed from parents to their offspring. (The study of heredity and the variation of inherited characteristics.) It deals with the ay human beings adapted to the circumstances in their environment and utilized available plants and animals to meet their needs.When used in relation to pants genetic studies helps us trace the origin of various species by identifying them with the region where large numbers of them are found today. After this, interpretation of their movement is made. The appearance of new cultivated varieties can be identified with the people whose economy they form a part. Also, common genes or characteristics among a group of people may indicate some relationships. **Archaeology and paleontology** Archaeology is the study of mans past through scientific analysis of the remains of material remains of his culture, e.g. weapons, tools, houses, clothing, utensils, paintings sculpture, pottery, coins, jewellery, cutlery, beads and work o arts.The archaeologist reconstructs the activities and way of life of people who lived in prehistoric times from various evidence remains of the material culture.Other items that can be used in archaeology include remains of charcoal and carbo-nized seeds, remains of cloth or garments, remains of dwelling laces.After studying the available artifacts, the archaeologist formulates his concept of a peoples civilization at the time the artifacts were used. The existence of artifacts in an area can enable the historian to deduce the material culture of the people who lived n the past. Palaeontology is the scientific study of the evolution and structure of extinct plants and animals (fossils) through scientific examination of fossil remains.Historians and archaeologists work with natural scientists like paleontologists, geologists and ecologists and chemistry in discovering fossils, getting information about soil structure, interpreting mans relationship to his environment and dating of fossils. **Methods used by archaeologists and paleontologists in discovering a historical site.** a) By looking at areas where tectonic forces (faulting) or erosion have occurred. In such areas, surfaces which may give important clues to the point of finding fossils and artefacts are exposed. b) Use of vision. Sometimes vision may help them find on the surface a small part of an early settlement such as a few stones in a regular pattern. c) Use of historical research. A place that may be mentioned in a historical document or in an oral narrative may give a clue to the geography of the area and open up further inquiries into the past civilization of such a clue.e.g Omo River Valley, Olduvai Gorge, Ur and Babylon. d) Use of experience. An archaeologist may also use his long experience and skill to identify a potential site for archaeological excavation. e) During cultivation and building construction, farmers and builders may accidentally expose ancient objects that could arouse the curiosity of researchers. For example Nyayo ya Mungu in Tanzania was a single footprint on a rock surface that was found in 1995 and became evidence of the existence of early human beings. **Advantages of using archaeology** a) Archaeology gives us detailed information on material culture that other sources may not have. b) Archaeology gives a sense of time, as the artifacts are dated. c) It complements other sources of information and thus ensures authenticity of the information. d) It provides information of varied nature depending on the materials found on the site. For example, if tools, weapons, coins, bones, rock paintings and other items are located, at a site, a lot of information maybe deduced. **Limitations of using archaeology** a) It is an expensive source of information. This is because one has to hire labourers to excavate the site and get artefacts and take them to laboratories for analysis. b) It is a time-consuming method. The researcher needs a lot of time to prepare for an excavation and take material for analysis in laboratories. c) It is sometime difficult for archaeologists to locate an archaeological site. d) Some artefacts and fossils are fragile and can therefore break or disintegrate during excavation. This may result in distortion of the analysis of the artefacts. e) Archaeology is only limited to the study of the ancient period and therefore cannot be used to study recent history. f) Archaeological information may sometimes be inaccurate since it is often bases on inferences (conclusions) and reconstructions. g) With archaeology, it may not be easy to accurately determine the date when events took place. It is only estimated through the method of dating fossils. h) There are very few archaeological experts and facilities for interpreting archaeological evidence in Kenya. Quite often, artefacts excavated from Kenya are taken to European countries for dating and analysis. What things do archaeologists use to construct the activities of people who lived in pre- history times? a) Looking for regions of tectonism (faulting) associated with fossils and artifacts. b) They look for unique features e.g. stone patterns. c) Remains of fossils and artifacts dug out by farmers and constructors. d) They dig, excavate for artifacts and fossils. e) They study artifacts and fossils found. f) They make research in regions associated with evolution of man e.g. rift valley. g) They classify the artifacts and fossils. h) They use chemical and scientific methods to find ages of their findings e.g. carbon 14- dating method **What problems face archaeologists in their work of re writing history using** **unwritten sources?** a) The exercise is too expensive. b) It is dangerous and tedious. Animals like wild dogs can attack scientists. c) Identification of the site is not easy because some artifacts are buried. d) Some artifacts can be destroyed in the process of digging. e) Dating of fossils is difficult. f) Personnel are few hence more work. g) Poor infrastructure in rural areas where their researches are mainly based h) Archaeologists may suffer from diseases caused by changes in climate. i) Sometimes the climate of their residence differs from that of the place they are taking **METHODS OF DATING FOSSILS** There are six methods through which scientists may use to arrive at the age of fossils. **1. Geological periods** These are periods that have been given names by paleontologists and geologists for the past ages. They are characterized by the successive type of pants and animals found, and the climatic changes.The recent period is the Holocene period which began 10,000 years ago at the end of the Pleistocene. **2. Chemical dating** They exist in two types: **(a) Radio- carbon dating** This method involves a measure of the rate of decay of carbon -14 in fossils and organic substances. Carbon -14 is a naturally existing radioactive element (isotope) of carbon of relative atomic mass fourteen and is found in the Carbon Dioxide which is present in the atmosphere.It is absorbed by plants and consequently by all living organisms during their lifetime. When plant or animal dies, absorption stops. Carbon -14 already absorbed begins to disintegrate at a fixed rate from the time of death. If the amount of carbon -14 still remaining in an organic sample can be measured and related to the content of the isotope in the modern plant or animal, the rate of decay will be known. The date at which the sample was buried will e known. The measurement tells us how long it is since the organism died.The unit of measuring is known as half-life- the number of years it takes for half the carbon -14 to decay.However the accuracy of radio-carbon dating is limited to up to 40,000 years ago. **(b) Potassium argon method** This is the method used to date volcanic ash. During volcanic eruptions, potassium is emitted. As soon as the potassium is deposited, the radio-active potassium-40 immediately begins to decay into the gas argon. It is assumed that the argon is retained in the mineral or rock unless there is earth movement.Given that the rate of decay of potassium is known, the amount of argon-40 compared with the amount of potassium, gives a direct measure of age.Because of the slower rate of decay of potassium than the decay of carbon-14, the potassium argon method is used for dates ranging from hundreds of millions of years to 30,000 years.Recently methods have been developed for measuring the potassium and argon simultaneously on the same sample using nuclear. **3. Stratigraphy** This is the study and interpretation of the layers of rock successively deposited at one place. It is useful in determining dates for areas affected by sedimentation. Through Stratigraphy, a geological time-chart is obtained showing which rock was formed earlier or later. **4. Fission-track dating** This is a method developed for dating Pleistocene samples. The ages of glass and other mineral objects estimated by observing the tracks made in them by the fission fragments of uranium nuclei they contain. It requires that Uranium must be present. The age obtained dates from the time the object solidified. This method has been proved reliable by being able to provide same reading from a sample of glass with a lump of pumice from Olduvai Gorge corresponding with the potassium argon dates from the same layer. **5. Lexico-statistics dating** Lexico-statistics is the statistical study of the vocabulary of languages with the intentions of determining their ages and their historical links with other languages.The study is based on the assumption that all languages have a basic vocabulary which will change slowly at a common rate for all languages at all times. The existence of reconstructed vocabulary of the parent language in derivative languages shows the **Relationship between the two** Glottochronology, a subdivision of Lexico-statistics, attempts to establish that languages are historically related .by this method, there is an effort to express rates of language development by formulae precise enough to enable dates when change occurred to be calculated **6. Statistical dating** Through a system of averaging, the length of a generation can be determined for a Particular society and dates estimated for events associated with certain generations. If the number and names of successive age-sets are remembered, the same system of averaging can be used. **Advantages of using unwritten sources of information on history and government** a) Information about peoples movement and relationship is given. b) It is very efficient where there still existed illiteracy and people could not write or read. c) It informs us of events in the absence of written materials. d) Data received is primary/ firsthand so accuracy is enhanced. e) Materials collected or excavated can be stored in museums for future reference. f) They create employment in museums where they are stored. g) Information not captured by written sources can be obtained from oral traditions. h) There is a sense of reality as it involves things that are seen and touched. i) Unwritten sources especially linguistics help in discovering the links between different people, which were previously unknown. j) Detailed information on material culture may be obtained. k) Dating of the migration of people is more accurate in unwritten sources e.g. In linguistics. **Written sources** These are sources in which letters or any other symbols have been put on the surface for the purpose of communication. They include books, archives, constitutions, journals, novels, plays, newspapers, magazines, documentaries, dairies, annual reports, periodical and paintings. **Written sources are classified into two;** **a) Archives and early manuscripts** Archives are a collection of historical documents or records, especially those carrying classified information of a government or an organization, which after a period of time are accessible to the public. They are also places where government, public and other historical records are kept.-they are resource centres for information.A manuscript is an authors handwritten or typed text that has not yet been published. Early manuscripts include stone tablets and scrolls. The bible and Quran are based on these two. **b) Printed sources** They include books, journals, novels, plays, newspapers, magazines, documentaries, dairies and annual reports. Photographs employ both electronic and printing processes but basically fall under printed sourcesWorks of fiction such as films plays and novels are important source of historical information. (Fiction is literature in form of prose, especially novels that describe imaginary events and people).Since work of fiction involves feelings and emotions, they can give more information about history. Also reading good historical novels arouses interest in history and gives the reader intellectual fulfillment. Newspapers convey new or fresh events, which with the passing of time becomes history. **Advantages of written records** a) Written records preserve history since events are recorded for future reference. They are a store of information. b) Written information can reach or be distributed to all literate people all over the world. c) Written sources are less costly compared to those of anthropology or archaeology. d) Unlike oral tradition sources which are largely dependent on human memory, written sources are more accurate as information is preserved exactly as it was recorded. e) Written records may be written or translated into different languages thus reaching different people all over the world. f) Written records are in most cases reliable as biases and prejudices coming from authors can be limited. This can be done by comparing written material with statistical data from other sources. **Limitations** a) Where an author omits essential information for one reason or another, a written source may be rendered quite unreliable. b) Written information may be misunderstood or misinterpreted by readers either with the intention of discrediting others or to suit ones needs. c) Writers at times are biased since the write from their particular point of view. For example, the writings of early explorers and missionaries. d) Written records are only limited to literate people within the society. are not useful to illiterate people in the absence of literate members of the society. e) At times, depending on the society involved, acquiring written records may be very costly. f) Reading written records is often time-consuming. **Electronic sources** These include microfilms, films, videos, radio, and television **Microfilms** These are films on which extremely small photographs (microphotography) of documents and printed matter are stored. They are tinny but when magnified can be clearly read. The importance of converting documents into microfilms is for preservation purposes and saving storage spaces. **Radio** This is an authoritative source of historical information that captures words and emotions of an event as I was. For example radio news on the presidents speeches gives listeners the actual information on national matters. However, radio lacks the vividness found in television and films. **Audio- visual sources** These include television, films and videos. Films carry indisputable historical facts as action is recorded live. They also give better understanding of some aspects of the social history of a given people with regard to their music, dress and leisure activities. Videos and films make the past come alive. However, since films are acted, they can sometimes be unrealistic as they may not present facts but an exaggerated version of an event.Television on its part gives good historical information as it depicts the situation as it was. **Databanks and databases** Databanks are large stores of organized information which can be accessed in number of ways. E.g. if it is a book, information can be accessed through an index, a table of content or by browsing.Electronic databases are stored in computer and facilitate easy and faster retrieval of information. One can search for information by use of a number of search terms.Information in a database can be printed when required but can also be accessed instantly on computer. **Limitations of using electronics as a source of information in history and** **government** a) They are Subject to bias since most audio visuals contain foreign materials carrying the bias of the producer. b) Some are limited to the literate only e.g. information in data bases and microfilms can only be accessed by literate people and even computer literate people only. c) The information may be inaccurate only giving what is appealing to the public. TV crew depict only what they want to. Censorship may leave out vital information. d) Electronic sources of information are too expensive; most people cannot afford e.g. TV, Radios. e) Some acted films are unrealistic and therefore contain exaggerated information. **EARLY MAN** In the study of early man, we will seek to answer questions that human beings have always sought to answer about how they appeared on earth, whether they were created and where the universe came from. **The origin of Human Beings** A number of theories have been put forward to explain the origin of human beings. a. The creation theory. b. The mythical/ traditional theory c. The evolution theory **The Creation theory** The Jews, Christians and Muslims recognize the creation story as narrated in the first book of bible and in Quran. That the whole universe was created by god. That God also created man, woman and all living things and all non-living creatures. Man was created in Gods own image and woman created to provide man with companionship. **The Mythical Theory** Among African communities, there are myths about their origin all of them pointing to the fact that the first man was created by God. Examples: Among the Agikuyu, their God (Ngai) created the first man, Gikuyu. He the provided him with a wife, Mumbi. He gave him land at Mugurwe wa Gathanga. One of the myths among the Nandi state that the first two people, male and female came from the knees of a giant man, when the knees began swelling and later burs for the two to come out from each of the either knees. **The Evolution Theory** Charles Darwin, an English man living between 1809 and 1882 questioned the acceptance of the creation theory. Through scientific expedition to South America and the pacific islands in 1831, he developed interest in fossils (remains of plants and animals found beneath the earths surface.) in 1859; he published his ideas in a book titled**The** **Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection.**The ideas enlisted instant battles from the Christian fraternity save for one supporter, Huxley. Clearly the theory of evolution was not accepted but it helped to make people aware of the new ideas concerning the origin of man. **What is evolution?** Evolution can be defined as the process of change in living organisms over a number of years, frequently involving the beginning of new species from earlier species. According to Charles Darwin, man transformed from simple life slowly over millions of years through environmental mutation, natural selection, isolation and adaptation. Mutation was a stage of abrupt change. Natural selection is an instinct by which the stronger species out compete the weaker
for resources.
Adaptation is where the surviving species isolate themselves from others as they adapt to new environment through body changes and technological changes e.g. ability to grow crops and make shelter. Darwins theory of natural selection comprises the following points. All organisms or creatures are uniquely different and this uniqueness is based on heredity factors which an organism has from birth. Although many young organisms are produced, few manage to develop to maturity. The organisms that manage to grow to maturity and reproduce are those that are able to constantly adapt to the existing environment.In view of the limited resources, even after mutation, Darwin argued that only the fittest organisms survive as the weak species become extinct. This theory is popularly known as survival for the fittest.According to Darwin, isolation and adaptation is the final stage in the evolution process. Having survived through mutation and natural selection, the merging species increase in number. This leads to search for basic needs and in the process a species may be isolated from the rest and then finally adapt to the new environment.The theory of evolution holds that Humans belong to the animal kingdom and that man has evolved over the years. Man is a primate just as apes like gorillas, chimpanzees and monkeys. However, man belongs to the family of hominidae, while apes belong to the family of pongidae. Man according to Darwin developed over the years from his ape-like ancestors. **Evolution and adaptation of man** The earliest Mammals lived on trees for two reasons; a) There was more supply of food o trees such as insects, leaves and birds eggs b) Security. Animals were more secure from their enemies while up on trees Man evolved from this kind of animals Archaeological evidence points at East Africa as the cradle of mankind. Reasons why East Africa is regarded as the place where man first evolved a) Evidence from archaeologists show that the earliest apes first evolved around lake and rift valley areas. And if man evolved from apes, then the first man must have appeared in east Africa. b) The savanna landscapes found in east Africa favored evolution while the conditions elsewhere (forests and deserts) Were unfavourable. c) The bones and weapons and tools which archaeologists are finding are proofs to this. These findings are widespread in Olduvai Gorge, Olorgesaillie, and Ngorongoro and around lakes of east Africa. d) The discovery of remains of early hominids and their material culture which form a pattern of human evolution prove this. E.g. we can trace the evolutionary process from Dryopithecus to Ramapithecus to Australopithecus to Homo habilis to Homo erectus to Homo sapiens. **Important archaeological sites found in East Africa** In Kenya; - Rusinga Island, Fort Ternan near Kericho, Kariandusi near Elementaita, Gambles cave, Olorgesaillie, Kobi For a near Lake Turkana, Hyrax Hill and Njoro River cave. In Tanzania; - Olduvai Gorge, Eyasi Simila, Apis Rock and Garusi In Uganda; - Nsongezi, Napak, Magosi, Paraa, Ishanga, Mweya and Nyabusora In Ethiopia; - Omo River Valley and Hadar. Over a long period of time, mans ancestors lived in thick forests. Later about 15 million years ago, the forests transformed into savanna grasslands causing mans ancestors to change both physically and mentally so as to cope with the new environment. **The changes** a) The tail which no longer had any value in the savanna disappeared. b) Man became more upright as there were no more impeding vegetation as was the case of too much foliage and intertwining vegetation in the forests and also to reduce surface area onto which solar insolation had effect. These also enabled quicker movement. c) The leg and foot formation changed to enable the weight of the body to be supported and balance to be achieved while moving or at a standstill. d) Gradual use of front limbs (hands for holding objects) enabled man to make tools which made work easier. The limbs also found another role of protection from other predators. As the forests disappeared, competition for food intensified and humans had to change their earlier eating habits. Some fossil evidence clearly give distinctive evidence of the break-off point between apes and hominids (mans ancestors.)The changes which Homo sapiens underwent as a break-off from apes to modern man. a) The skull size of the early human beings became larger indicating bigger brains. For example, Australopithecus, who lived between 5 and 1 million years ago, had a brain capacity of 530cm3. Homo erectus who lived later on had an improved brain capacity of between 775 and 1225cm3. b) Their jaws and teeth became more powerful compared to earlier forms indicating their use in tearing and cutting tough fibres and even the need for defence as a weapon. The size of the jaws and teeth became smaller. c) They developed a refined speech as compared to earlier forms. d) They were taller with less hair on their body. e) The forearms and hands underwent some changes. They developed a thumb for grasping objects. Their arms and hands became shorter, more appropriate for an upright posture. f) Their leg and foot formation also changed. Their feet and toes were smaller than earlier hominids in order to support the weight of the rest of the body while motionless or mobile. The toes were no longer in need for holding onto branches. **From apes to homo sapien sapiens** Between 40 and 25 million years ago, the first apes appeared on earth. The first man (Austropithecus) appeared around 4.5 million years ago. The following are the stages through which the evolution of man passed. **1) Aegyptopithecus - An Early African Monkey** ~ Aegyptopithecus was reconstructed from a monkey like skull found at Fayum Depression in Egypt. He forms earliest evidence of probable man's ancestors. ~ Its Teeth were those of a herbivore ~ It had a Small, about 4kg and was named Egyptian ape. ~ It was highly adapted to forest life. Had stereoscopic vision. It could jump skillfully from one tree to other using hands. It Dated 33 million years **2) Dryopithecus Africanus (proconsul**) ~ Its Remains were found at Rusinga Island within Lake Victoria by Mary and Louis Leakey in 1948. Its Skull appearance was more close to modern man than to Aegyptopithecus. ~ He had a quadrupedal movement like a chimpanzee. He had a Smooth forehead. ~ He had long teeth like other animals. The shape of his teeth and jaws indicated that He ate fruits. It is his remains that strengthen the belief that east Africa was the first homeland of mankind. **3) Kenyapithecus (Ramapithecus)** ~ He is believed to have appeared between 15 and 12 million years ago ~ First remains found Fort Ternan in Kericho District, Kenya, in 1961 by Dr. Louis Leakey and Mary. Other fossils found at Samburu Hills, near Lake Baringo as well as in the Lake Turkana basin. ~ The equivalent species found in the Siwalikis Hills in northern India near New Delhi was named Ramapithecus ~ He had small canines and could occasionally walk on twos without falling. ~ The creature was small and weighed 36kg with bigger brains than earlier hominids. **4) Australopithecus (southern ape)** ~ By 4-2m years ago a series of species known as australopithecines begin to appear. Perhaps it was the earliest homid closer to modern man. ~ The pelvis and leg were similar to that of modern humans. ~ They were bipedal and this was important in defence, grasp of objects and vision of an impending danger from a distance. ~ His Brain size was smaller than that of a human but larger than gorillas. ~ He was one of the most hairy hominid that ever existed. ~ He was Short but strong with a low forehead. Had large teeth and skulls ~ His remains were first discovered at Taung in Botswana by Raymond Dart in 1924. ~ The broken up skull found in East Africa at Olduvai Gorge in 1959 by Mary Leakey, was called Zinjanthropus- Nut-Cracker man since it had big jaws that suggest it kept on chewing. ~ Other fossils found in South Africa, Omo River Valley, Laetoli in Tanzania, near lakes Turkana and Baringo in kenya and L Natron Four types of Australopithecines that have been identified a) Australopithecus Afarensis b) Australopithecus Anamensis c) Australopithecus africanus. d) Australopithecus Robustus e) Australopithecus Anamensis ~ He is aged between 4.2 and 3.9 million years ago and is believed to be one of the oldest
**a) Australopithecines** ~ Evidence of his existence is obtained from the Reconstruction of Material consisting of 9 fossils from Kanapoi in Kenya and 12 fossils from Allia Bay in Kenya found by Dr. Meave Leakey, Dr. Allan Walker and the four fossil hunters (Kamoya Kimeu, Wambua Mangao, Nzube Mutiwa and Samuel Ngui.) ~ The fossil remains (comprising a lower jaw) were named A. Anamensis in August 1995 in a leading British Scientific journal. ~ He had relatively large canines. ~ The homid was aged between 3.9 and 3.0 million years ago. Its Name is derived from Afar Depression in Ethiopia. ~ He Had Apelike face and human-like teeth. He was small in stature and Bipedal, but Walked bent over, not fully upright. ~ They had very small brains -Brain capacity from 375 to 500 cc (Its Brain was the size of an orange.) ~ They had a bony ridge over the eyes, a low forehead, a flat nose, and also they had no chin. ~ Remains found at Laetoli in Tanzania and Tugen Hills in Baringo District. **c) Australopithecus Africanus (A. Gracilis)** ~ A. africanus existed between 3 and 2.5 million years ago. A. africanus was slenderly built, or Gracile (Gracile means slender) with a height of 1.5m. ~ Was significantly more like modern humans than A. Afarensis, with a larger brain and more humanoid facial features. ~ Had large teeth, jaws and skull ~ A. africanus has been found at only four sites in southern Africa Taung (1924), Sterkfontein (1935), Makapansgat (1948) and Gladysvale (1992). d) Australopithecus Robustus ~ He Lived between 1 - 2mya in South Africa. ~ He is the biggest and most recent Australopithecine. - weight 68kg. He had more robust skull, jaws, and teeth. ~ He ate fruits, nuts and raw tubers- was apparently a vegetarian. ~ His Remains were found primarily in cave deposits at Swartkrans and Kromdraai in South Africa. ~ His Average brain size was about 530 cc ~ The East African A.Robustus was named A. Boisei 5) Homo habilis (Handy Man) - man with ability. ~ He is the earliest known species of the genus Homo; that is, the first human species. He lived 2.5 -1.5 million years ago ~ He was the First Homo specie to create and use stone tools for hunting and daily life. Homo habilis depicted the ability to make better tools than his predecessors. That is why he was referred to as man with ability. ~ His Brain size was -500 -800 cc;-the Brain shape is more humanlike. ~ He was capable of rudimentary speech. ~ He was about 127 cm (5'0\") tall, and about 45 kg (100 lb) in weight, although females may have been smaller ~ His fossils were found in the Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania in 1964 by Dr. J. Leakey. ~ His Remains were also found at Hadar and Omo River Valley in Ethiopia and kobi fora along L. Turkana by Benerd Ngeneo in 1972. 6) Homo erectus (Upright Man) ~ He was BIPEDAL- standing about 4-5 feet tall with a larger brain (700-1250cc). He lived between 2 million and 200,000 years ago. ~ He was clever as illustrated by his ability to make Acheulian tools such as the hand axe which was used as an axe, knife or even as a scraper. He was the First hominid to invent and use fire. ~ Their skeletons were larger and showed that they were quite heavily muscled ~ They were omnivorous like many other early hominids. ~ Only had hair on their head and back like are men that we have today ~ Remains found in Hardar, Ethiopia where the skeleton of a female Lucy were found. ~ Other fossils were found near Nariokotone River on the north western shores of LakeTurkana by Kamoya Kimeu in 1984. ~ Also at Olorgesaillie near Magadi, Isimila near Iringa in TZ and Tenerife in Algeria. ~ The most famous Homo Erectus fossil was found in a cave in Zhoukoudian, China and became known as Peking Man/Java man **7) Homo sapiens (Wise Man thinking man)** ~ Their Main difference with their hominid ancestors is their extreme intelligencethey were the smartest hominid that ever lived with a Brain capacity of 1000-1800cc ~ They lived between 200,000 and 150,000 years ago ~ They improved their way of life by making a variety of flint, bone, wood and stone tools **(Microliths)** ~ They hunted, gathered and fished. Later on, they domesticated plants and animals ~ Their Remains were found at Eliye Springs, Kanjera and Kanam in Kenya, Bodo and Omo River Valley in Ethiopia and Ngaloba in Tanzania. Three sub-species of Homo sapiens existed; **a) Rhodesian man** ~ The sub-species Was discovered in Zambia , hence the name Rhodesian man ~ He had straight legs and walked with long strides. ~ Rhodesian mans Brains and skull were very similar to those of modern man. **b) Neanderthals** ~ His Remains were found in Neander valley, Germany (1856). They Lived in caves and valleys ~ He was 5 feet and 5 inches tall-much stronger, heavily built and more aggressive too. ~ He Had very thick eyebrow ridges like the other hominids ~ He Made clothes from animal skins. They would scrape animal fat so they can use the skin as clothing. ~ They were probably the First humans to bury their dead. He was most likely the most intelligent hominid other than modern humans. ~ He was a nomad, gathering and hunting deer, wild pigs and wild sheep. Their weapons were used to impale animals; therefore, to kill them, they had to approach the animal and get very close. This was dangerous and probably caused injuries and even fatalities. ~ Communication was key in hunting because they had to work as a team. They had the ability to use complex speech; however, their sentences were probably basic. Instead of painting on cave walls they painted their faces. ~ Other remains were found in Asia in France, Belgium, Gibraltar, Italy and former Yugoslavia. ~ They became extinct about 30,000 years ago. c) Homo sapiens Cro-Magnon ~ He was almost identical to modern humans although quite muscular and taller. Had long, low skull and a wide face, a sharp, rising forehead, bushy eyebrows and prominent chins ~ They had a big brain capacity and had very complex thinking ~ He was hunter-gatherer, painter and lived in caves ~ He knew how to make clothes ~ His Fossil remains were found in Western Europe. Their skeletons still remain in France today ~ They became extinct around 10,000years ago 8) Homo sapiens sapiens ~ Homo sapiens sapiens are modern day humans. They evolved about 50,000 years ago. ~ They have big brains and a more advanced faculty for curiosity and intelligence ~ They have a large brain capacity. They do not just think, they plan ahead, make accurate forecasts, and study the star and the galaxies ~ They have made inventions that have made life more comfortable. ~ They are Around 5 feet 6 inches tall and Walk fully upright ~ They have Minimal hair on our bodies (replaced by clothing)-We have clothes that are made from brands, factories, we also sew or knit our own clothing. The growing knowledge of genetic structure and functions has enabled human beings to clone animals using genes obtained from existing animals, thereby producing offsprings that looks exactly like the original e.g. the work of Dr. Wilmut Ian at the Roslin Institute of Edinburgh, Scotland that led to the first cloned sheep named dolly. Scientists are making attempts to even clone humans.More recent discoveries of early man include the Toumai found in Chad in 2002 dating about 6 to 7 myaIn 2000, another discovery was made in Baringo, Kenya (millennium man) and is believed todate 6mya. The discovery was made by Martin Pickford and Eustace Gitonga o the National Museums of Kenya. **Appearance of races** It has been hypothesized modern humans, using superior technology and more efficient adaption, out competed other hominid species to quickly emerge as the only surviving hominid species on the planet.Though we feature much diversity in appearance, these differences are minor compared to our biological similarities/all human beings are quite closely related.Many of our physical differences (skin, color, hair color, etc.) are relatively recent adaptations to local environment conditions. Evolutionary forces such as genetic drift have also played a role in our creating such variation as well. Biologists and anthropologists classified humans into three different groups based on physical characteristics. Modern genetics has revealed that these categories make very little sense biologically since modern races are derived from a common stock and the different races are able to interbreed. There are also no differences in intelligence among all races of mankind. The term race has traditionally been used by scientists as the equivalent of the subspecies concept when classifying humans.The Cultural and economic practices of early man **What is culture?** Culture is the way of life of a people-Customs, language and social institutions The things that early humans made and used formed their material culture. Early mans culture can be understood through study of Stone Age or Paleolithic periods **What is Stone Age?** This refers to the early period of human history when mans tools and weapons were mainly made of stone and to some extend wood and bone There are three Stone Age periods 1) Old stone age- Paleolithic period- 4,500,000 to 50,000years 2) Middle stone age- Mesolithic period-50,000-15,000 years. 3) New Stone Age Neolithic period- 15,000- 1,500 years **The Paleolithic Age** Paleolithic -> Old Stone Age- 4,500,000 50,000 years ago The Paleolithic is the longest of all stone ages, covering roughly 2 million years. The hominid species who lived side by side were Australopithecus, Homo habilis and Homoerectus. **EARLY STONE AGE TOOLS** The hominids Made tools from stone The Tool Traditions was called Oldowan tools / pebble tools. The tools were named after Olduvai Gorge where they were found. They were made by Australopithecus and Homo erectus. They were also known as pebble tools because they were made of stones. Among the finds at Olduvai were the chopper, fist hatchet (core tools) and several flake tools.Such tools were also found at Kobi For a near Lake Turkana, Omo River Valley in Ethiopia, and Kafu Valley in Uganda, Shaba province in Zaire and in Algeria, Tunisia and morocco.In Kenya, the tools were found at sites in kariandusi, Olorgesaillie, Kilombe, Chesowanja, Mtongwe, Isenya and Lewa DownsAustralopithecus Southern Ape They didnt have the intelligence to make sophisticated tools, so they may have made tools out of bones that they foundAustralopithecus afarensis mostly used tools that they found or that nature had created, example was a stick, which they stuck into a termite mound, then the termites clung to it letting the ape pull out the stick covered in food. He is however also credited for making Oldowan tools. **Homo habilis and the Oldowan Tradition** They made stone tools for chopping, scraping, and cutting. Making of Choppers (lower left) involved knapping a few flakes off the core. Both cores and flakes were used. The Knapper could strike a spherical piece of stone until Flake falls off opposite side. The Tool would then be flipped over and procedure repeated. Several blows would create a cutting edgeRequirements reflect Intelligence, Planning, foreknowledge of design and Knowledge of breakage pattern of rock. There must also be Hand-eye coordination The second phase of the Old Stone Age was marked by tools called Acheulian tools, named after the site of St Acheul in France. Others found in Tanzania, Uganda, Malawi, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. In Kenya, the tools were found at Kariandusi, Olorgesaillie, Kilombe, Chesowanja, Mtongwe, Isenya and Lewa DownsThey were made by Homoerectus. Homo erectus and the Acheulian tool technology. Signature tool: a well- designed hand axe and cleavers The Hand axe had multiple uses, from cutting, skinning, scraping animal skins, digging and sharpening bone and wood. **Characteristics of Acheulian hand axe** ~ It was Bifacial: both sides were knapped ~ Symmetrical in breadth ~ Shaped to a point on one end ~ The edge is thin and sharp ~ Broad end is curved, but edge is still sharp. **Process of Manufacturing Acheulian Hand axes** Dozens of flakes were removed from the core, from 25 to 75. Each flake blow must be precisely positioned. The Core must be turned over again and again to maintain symmetry and to keep edge straight. All the exterior rind (cortex) was removed. It was a demanding task-The hand axe was Symmetrical and finely shaped. **OLD STONE AGE-HUNTING AND GATHERING** The early Stone Age people lived in small groups and were able to hunt for food using sharpened rocks and sticks. They used simple hunting methods of chasing wild animals and throwing stones at them. They also made traps by digging large pits on the paths used by animals. They ate raw meat from small animals like lizards and rodents Women gathered edible fruits, eggs and roots- had a balanced diet. **THE OLD STONE AGE-SHELTER AND CLOTHING** Humans during this period found shelter in caves and tree-tops. Their bodies were hairy enough to keep them warm- lack of clothing was therefore bearable during this period. Moreover, the savannahs were also warm enough. They also preferred the grasslands because they provided them with the much needed water and foodThe Australopithecus had a very small brain and that limited the actions they could do. The Australopithecus were very hairy so they didnt need any clothes. Australopithecus diet was mostly made up of fruits and vegetables they found. If Australopithecus found a dead animal it would scavenge of it but the Australopithecus afarensis couldnt cook the meat and kill the germs. **Mesolithic age** Mesolithic middle Stone Age- 200,000 10,000 years ago. They period was characterized by superior brains and ability of Homo erectus and Homo sapiens. Great improvements were witnessed. **TOOLS** Signature tool; Sangoan tool made using Lavallois method The tool was named after Sango Bay site on L. Victoria-Tz **The Lavallois technology** It involved using cores of smaller stones to hit bigger ones. The tool maker would draw outline of flake on stone module and Strike out flakes and blades of desired shape. The rock would be prepared beforehand to control how rock breaks when struck. The flakes and blades were then trimmed into a variety of knives, scrapers, spear points, choppers and daggers.Also Mousterian tools (specialized stone tools and weapons) were made. Tang- the first tool with a handle was invented in this period- 40,000 years ago in northern Africa.Fire was also another important tool invented by Homo erectus and he used it as follows ~ For warmth at night, lighting, to cook roots and roast meat, for hunting (bushfires), tool-making to harden tips, means of communication, food preservation ~ It also enabled hominids to migrate out of savannah **MESOLITHIC FOOD AND CLOTHES** Homo erectus was considered the first true hunters. Because of better tools (Hand axe), fire and axes, they could hunt larger game such as deer, rhinos, pigs, elephants; buffaloes etc. and cook their food.People learnt to wear animal skins and make waist-belts and necklaces. They also painted themselves with red ochre and oil. **MESOLITHIC SHELTER.** Man used identifiable shelter. An example was found at Orangia in South Africa. Man also used rock shelter (rocks scooped out to make hollows). Later man lived in caves with entrance covered with animal skins to keep wind and rain away (e.g. Matupi Cave in Zaire and Gambles cave near Nakuru. **MESOLITHIC LANGUAGE AND ROCK ART** Families lived in small groups for security reasons. There were distinct languages to enhance communications.Rock paintings-Pictures of animals were painted on walls and rocks. Examples of Cave paintings were left behind at Kondoa and singida areas in north Tanzania and at Apollo II cave in S.A. This pictures signified mans believe in magic (arrows piercing animals he hoped to kill) **SOCIAL ORGANIZATION** There was efficient group organization as evidenced by the ability to carry out large-scale hunting. Language invention further strengthened the social bonds and cultures of early man **The Neolithic age** Neolithic This period was marked with the Emergence of Homo sapiens and homo sapien sapiens. **THE NEOLITHIC TOOLS** Man became a Very skilled toolmaker-they made tools known as microliths- (small piece of sharp stone tool). For example, a crescent or a lunate which had a straight sharp cutting edge and a curved blunted back.Their weapons include stone axes, knives, spears, harpoons, wooden bows, and sharp, stone tipped arrows, hooks, needles, and bone fish hooks.NEANDERTHALS were the first to create the pointed tip on hunting spears and harpoons **THE NEOLITHIC SHELTER** Earlier sapiens used caves as their homes instead of building one. Later, they made permanent homes that looked like tents or tepees, out of tree branches, grass, mammoth bones, and animal skins. They used or made some sort of paint to use on their cave paintings. **FOOD AND AGRICULTURE** Man domesticated plants and animals though he continued to hunt and gather. Man changed as from Nomadic lifestyle to settled stationary lifestyle; a.k.a.sedentary Population also increased due to balanced diet and adequate food
New Stone Age- 15,000 4,000 years ago **THE NEOLITHIC GOVERNMENT** Due to settled life and improved settlement, rules and laws were set up as a basis of government. Some people also specialized in leadership, religious activities as well as making of crafts. **THE NEOLITHIC RELIGION** Mans language and religious beliefs developed as a result of depending on natural forces like rain. They began to ponder over issues like life and death.Evidence is found at Hyrax Hill and Njoro river Cave where human fossil remains were found buried with items such as tools and seeds or foodThe practice of burying someone with his possessions implied a belief in life after death.Neanderthals were the first to bury their dead. They also seemed to have a conception of an afterlife as shown by the actual burial site at La Ferrassie, France, with seven tombs including a man, a woman and several childrens graves lying side by side. **THE NEOLITHIC ART AND CRAFT** Humans specialized in crafts such as basketry, pottery and later smelting Evidenced by this horse head carving to the right. **DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURE** **Definition of agriculture** It is the cultivation of crops. The modern definition of agriculture includes animal husbandry, fish farming and bee-keeping. **The beginning of Agriculture** The domestication of plants and animals began over 10,000 years ago during the Neolithic period **Why man domesticated plants and animals** a. The increase of human population needed regular food supply -natural environment could no longer provide sufficient food. b. Climatic changes-increased drought, threatened plant life and animal life making natural food scarce. c. Competition for existing food in the natural resulted in inadequate wild food/over hunting of animals. d. Hunting and gathering was increasingly becoming tiresome. e. Calamities such as forest fires or floods sometimes destroyed vegetation or drove wild animals away. f. Development of settled life. Man had to stop a life of movement in search of food and water. g. Development of tools (microliths) e.g. sickles wooden plough, etc. h. Availability of varieties of indigenous crops e.g. wheat and barley. There are two theories that explain how agriculture started; 1. The Independent theory. Agriculture developed independently in different parts of the world especially along river valleys. 2. One Place Theory/Diffusion Theory-Crop growing and animal keeping developed among people of south East Asia. Then the idea spread to the rest of the world; Middle East, India, Central America, China, Southeast Asia 8,000 BC 7,000 BC 6,500 BC 6,000 BC 5,000 BC **CROP GROWING** The transformation from hunting and gathering to growing of food crops was a gradual development. The first crops were grown by man in areas where they existed naturally. Crop growing first developed in the Fertile Crescent which is in the Middle East. Neolithic women noticed new grain plants grew when they accidentally spilled grain seeds. They tried scattering seeds on purpose it worked! ~ Animals often find plants in places with water / good soil - Hunters saw pattern ~ People stayed at sites, animals became tamer ~ People started weeding / irrigating so plants would grow better ~ Started saving seeds of better plants to plant ~ One season, nomads liked a site so much they stuck around ~ Stayed so long they harvested a crop and then saw it grow to harvest stage again ~ Groups learned to grow a crop from seed to harvest and then move on ~ Since men did the hunting and females were responsible for the food gathering, women learned how to plant seeds, as well as process and prepare the food. The above facts point out that the beginning of crop farming was accidental and mainly through trial and errorEarliest crops to be domesticated were barley, wheat, sorghum, millet, rice, maize, yams, cassava, potatoes, bananas and grapes. Since they grew in different environments, there were many centres of agricultural revolution. For example; ~ Middle East. ~ Indus valley in India. ~ Nile valley ~ The yellow river valley in china ~ The Danube Valley in Europe. **WHEAT** Originally grown in south-west Asia Initial type was brittle wheat-then replaced by a non-brittle type in 7500BC called emmer Wheat then spread Mesopotamian plains by 6000 BC to Egypt by 3000BC, then to Mediterranean region, central Asia, India and southern Europe. **BARLEY** The first cereal to be domesticated.Initially grew wildly at Mureybat on the Euphrates in Syria between 7000 - 6000 BC Another evidence of growth found at Ali kosh (Iran) and Jericho (Jordan)Then spread to Egypt at Fayum in 4500 BC. Then spread to India and china by about 2000 BC. **SORGHUM AND MILLET** Originated from Africa at Hoggat in southern Algeria as early as 6000 BC Spread to West Africa to around Sudan area between Nile and Chad, by 1500 BC Finger millet originated in East Africa. Later the two spread to Asia and China. **RICE** Originated in Asia where currently is a stable food- in Thailand at about 3500 BC Then spread to India, Europe and Japan The African variety was grown along the upper Niger around 1500 BC **MAIZE** Origin- Central America at about 5000 BC at Tehuacan in Mexico. In Africa, was introduced by the Portuguese in 15thc. **YAMS** The first root and tuber crop to be domesticated- 9000 BC in south East Asia. The African variety, the white guinea yam was grown in Ivory Coast. **DOMESTICATION OF ANIMALS** The Dog was the first animal to be domesticated. The next animals were the sheep, Goats, cattle and camels. Animal domestication Began through establishment of ties between man and animals during hunting or when fetching water. **Dog** Assisted humans in hunting, driving away dangerous animals and herding livestock **Goats** The Goat was first domesticated in south west Asia in5000 BC.Evidence of this is found at Tell Abu Hureyra, Tepe Ali Kosh, and Deh Luren Khuzestan in south -west Iran. Also in Iraq, upper Tigris valley, turkey and south Jordan. Goat domestication was in Egypt in 5000 BC Sheep.Sheep was domesticated after the dog. Fossil evidence of sheep keeping has been found at Zawi Chemi Shanid in Iraq and dating to about 9000 BC. Sheep were also kept in Syria, Egypt and Saharan region then to West Africa. Sheep was also kept in Indus valley and yellow river valleys. **Cattle** Cattle was first domesticated in south-west Asia as early as 5800BC in turkey and then in Iran and Iraq. It then spread to Ethiopia and North Africa from Asia. The short-horned cattle originated in Mesopotamia then spread to Africa and Europe. **Camel** Though camels are associated with North Africa today, the original home has been traced to North America from where t spread to South America and Asia. The Asian and s. American species became the ancestors of the Alpaca and Illama.Two types of camels exist today- the one-humped (found in Middle East, northern china and Africa), and the two-humped camel (found in central Asia.) Camels were domesticated about 3000 BC to 2500 BC **Importance of the domestication of animals** a) Some of them like cattle, sheep and goats provided man with regular food i.e. Milk, meat. b) Animal Hides or skin were used as clothing and beddings c) The horns were used for communication. d) Hooves and bones of animals were used as containers and as drinking vessels. e) Some of the domesticated animals like the camel, donkey and horses were used for transport. f) Domestic animals like the oxen and the donkey were used to plough land for farming. g) The dog protected man against dangerous animals. h) Some of the domesticated animals produced manure which greatly improved agricultural produce. **EARLY AGRICULTURE IN MESOPOTAMIA** Mesopotamia was the land between the two rivers Tigris and Euphrates and lay in the present day irag. It was one of the centres of early civilization as early as 3000 BC. Food production in this region began as early as 8000 BC. **Reasons why early agriculture developed in Mesopotamia** a) Availability of indigenous crops and animals in the region e.g. Wheat, barley, dates and goats, sheep and cattle. b) Existence of fertile land along river valleys of Tigris and Euphrates-consisting of deposited silt. c) Availability of water from rivers Tigris and Euphrates which was used for irrigation. Heavy rains experienced in the Zaggroes Mountains contributed to floods on the river valleys. d) Invention of farming tools e.g. Hoes, ploughs, sickles and seed drill which promoted agricultural activities. e) Existence of transport system in form of donkeys, canoes, river transport etc; which was instrumental in transportation of inputs and outputs. f) Political instability that enabled people to practice agriculture. The Sumerians are credited as the first people to use irrigation in growing crops. When the river water overflowed the banks during flooding, the Sumerians had the skill of controlling it through canals into the dry lands. (Canal or bucket irrigation). They also used farm implements to improve crop growing. For example the use of ox-drawn ploughs and seed drills pulled by oxen to replace stone hoes.Most of the people during the summer civilization earned their livelihood as farmers, craftsmen, fishermen and cattle breeders.Most of the land was in form of large estates owned by the rulers or the wealthy classes. The peasants were given small plots along with seeds, farm implements and animals in exchange for labour. The Crops grown included barley, wheat, vines, date, palms, grapes, olives, onions, figs, melons and cucumbers. Milk animals kept included goats and cow. Also ducks, pigs, geese and horses were kept. **Impact of early agriculture in Mesopotamia** a) It led to settled life as people now needed to concentrate on farming. b) Food production increased. c) There was an increase in population along the river valleys due to plenty and regular food supply. d) There was emergence of city-states and urban centres. For example Ur, Uruk, Eridu, Nippur, Kish and Babylon. e) Surplus agricultural production led to development of trade between communities. f) There was increased specialization as all could not engage in farming. Some became craftsmen. g) Agriculture influenced writing and arithmetic. Management of estates required knowledge in accounts. The form of writing that was developed was known as cuneiform involving the use of stone tablets. h) The invention of the wheel by around 3000 BC. it was used in carts to transport farm produce, for making war chariots to transport soldiers and also in pottery (the potters wheel) i) The plough was also invented. The first ox-plough consisted of simply a tree trunk with one small branch protruding upwards with the other one upwards. The invention meant that only a few people were needed to cultivate land. j) There was the development of science and mathematics with the development of the first formulas for measuring time, distance and area. There was also development in the field of Astronomy. k) Religious practices also developed with the connection of most of the gods to agriculture in one way or another. For example, Ninurta was a god of floods. l) Development of law. A code of laws was compiled as a means of minimizing conflict in society- the Hammurabis code. **EARLY AGRICULTURE IN EGYPT** As early as 7000 BC, people had already settled in the Nile valley. By around 5000 BC, the Egyptians had gradually adopted agriculture, departing from a hunter-gatherer society. **Reasons that enhanced development of early Agriculture in Egypt** a) Availability of Water for irrigation and for domestic use from river Nile. b) Existence of fertile silt deposits and mud originating from the flooding of the Nile betweenJuly and October annually, which provided fertile soil for crop farming. c) Another advantage was that Egypt had a suitable warm climate for crop growing and ripening. d) The Use of shadoof Irrigation technology ensured production of food during drought seasons e) Presence of indigenous crops and animals from which domestication was made. Wheat and barley had already become indigenous to Egypt as were animals like sheep and goats. f) Foreign influence from South West Asia where farming was first practiced. The proximity of Egypt to Mesopotamia, the first centre of agricultural development ensured that she borrowed heavily from there. g) The Natural protection of the region from foreign attacks, since the Nile valley was protected by the Libyan Desert to the West, the Nubian Desert and Nile cataracts to the South and the Nile coast delta on the North. h) Political stability. i) High population created need for more food and provided farm labour. j) Availability of slave labour made crop farming a success. k) The invention and use of implements that included wooden sticks, knives and wooden hoes enabled the farmers to increase their yields. l) The existence of writing in Egypt helped the Egyptians to keep accurate records of seasons and volume of food. **The shadoof irrigation** This was the method of irrigation used in Egypt during the drought season when the river was not flooding. A shadoof is a wooden device for lifting water from a river into the canals. It consisted of a long pole swinging up and down between two supporting wooden posts One end has a weight hanging on the pole while the other end has a skin bucket. The bucket is pulled down and dipped into the water by a person. It is caused to rise by the weight, once water has been filled. The other person empties the water into the canal to be drained into the fields.The Egyptians used farm implements like sticks, knives, axes, sickles and hoesAmong the crops planted in Egypt included wheat, barley, fruits, flax, beans, vegetables, cucumbers, onions, lentils, dates, figs and grapes. They used the broadcasting method. Shifting cultivation was also practiced before human population increased.They kept animals like sheep, goat, pigs, donkey, cattle and poultry. The state directed production. It controlled distribution of harvests as well as handicrafts. Government owned huge granaries and godowns which were used to store food. The king was regarded as the guardian who presided over food supply for all. The master of largesse was responsible for all the livestock in the country. In the year when agricultural production was poor, the head of the exchequer would take care of the distribution of seeds and livestock. **Effects of early agriculture in Egypt** a) Due to improved farming, there was increased food production thus ensuring regular food supplies. b) There was Growth in population as food supply increased and became regular. c) Agriculture led to permanent settlement of people. As a result, their living standards improved dramatically as they reaped from farming. d) Agriculture promoted trade among the Egyptians. It led to production of surplus food that in turn was used to increase trading activities. e) Agriculture Led to rise of urban centres or towns in Egypt such as Memphiss akhetan, Aswan and Thebes along the Nile valley. f) Agriculture enabled some society members to specialize in other activities since a few could now produce enough food for all. Some engaged in hand crafts, geometry etc. g) Agriculture Led to emergence of government and related governing laws. h) Like the case of Mesopotamia, it led to the discovery of arithmetic, geometry, writing and calendar. These were used by the priests to keep records and make accurate prediction of annual foods. The Egyptian calendar is believed to be the earliest calendar in the world. i) It promoted social stratification or classes in Egyptian society. **Effects of early agriculture** Summarize from the effects in Egypt and Mesopotamia. **THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN BRITAIN** The agrarian revolution refers to rapid changes and improvements in the field of agriculture. Between 1750 and 1850 European countries underwent changes in agriculture. The changes were marked by A new system of land ownership Use of machines and new farming methods.
The revolution took place first in Britain. **CHARACTERISTICS OF AGRICULTURE IN BRITAIN BEFORE THE** **AGRARIAN REVOLUTION** 1. Feudalism was practiced. **What is Feudalism?** Loosely organized system of government in which local lords governed their own lands but owed military service and other support to a greater lord (nobility) The feudal kings had plenty of land; but they could not control it all. So they gave land to lords (nobility) in exchange for protection, loyalty and $.Nobility then gave Part of their land to the serfs (peasants) who would work on it and give part of their crops to the local (land) lord, for letting them farm the land. 2. Farmers practiced open-field system. In this system land was divided into three portions; I. Portion one- growing corn and wheat II. Portion two- for beans, barley and oats III. Portion three- left fallow to regain fertility. Such a system did not allow effective farming since land was not fully utilized. It also discouraged livestock farming since it allowed easy spread of livestock diseases. There was uncontrolled breeding in livestock instead of selective breeding since livestock grazed together. Fallow land and existence of Cattle and footpaths that crisscrossed the farms wasted a lot of land. 3. Stripping as a method of farming was used. The existence of strips meant that Land portions were small and discouraged the use of machines. 4. Use of simple tools and implements that included sticks, hoes and later ploughs. Cultivation was therefore on small scale with crop rotation being used as a method of improving fertility. It was however not effective. 5. Use of broadcasting method. Broadcasting method of planting led to wastage of seeds as it would be eaten by birds and rodents 6. Intercropping was practiced. The growing of two or more crops on the same piece of land. 7. Mixed farming. Livestock was allowed to graze on fallow land 8. Mono-cropping-planting the same type of crop year after on the same piece of land. NB; this was an inefficient system leading to low yields **CHANGES THAT MARKED THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN BRITAIN** 1. Fallows were abolished and available lands used effectively. This was influenced by population that occasioned demand for more food. The farmers could no longer afford to leave land to regain fertility. 2. Application of new methods of farming. **Introduction and use of fertilizers in farms** Lord Viscount Townsend discovered that clover added nitrogen to the soil and turnips could survive in winter and be used to feed cattle. Townsend introduced a new four- course crop rotation called the Norfolk system consisting of barley, clover, turnips and wheat on same plot for a four-year period. In 1843, John Bennet Lawes discovered the use of fertilizers and opened a superphosphate factory in London. 3. Use of farm machineries like the horse drawn drilling machine invented by Jethro Tull in 1701 which replaced the broadcasting method. Iron hoes were used instead of sticks, to prepare the ground. In 1925, the wooden plough was replaced with an iron plough. Patrick Bells invention of the mechanical reaper replaced the sickle in harvesting corn. Andrew Meikles invented a mechanical thresher in 1876 which could cut and bind corn at the same time. The use of machines changed agriculture from a small scale to a large-scale business. 4. Intercropping to retain land fertility. E.g. of maize and beans. This practice enabled farmers to realize more yields. 5. Application of scientific principles to farming. For example, Selective breeding of livestock invented by Robert Bakewell (1725-1795). He was able to develop the short horn, Devon, the Hereford, Aberdeen Angus and Ayrshire. He also improved sheep breeds such as the Leicester, Shropshire, Suffolk and the oxford. Pig varieties- the Yorkshire, Berkshire and Tamworth breeds 6. Fencing of farms/land enclosure system; the introduction of land enclosures put to an end to strip farming. This was a demand of the rich landlords that land should be enclosed by fencing. The enclosure act enabled rich people to acquire more land. As a result more land was put under production and more land could be ploughed by one farmer **Positive effects of the land enclosure system introduced in Britain** a) It created large farms which allowed use of horse drill and crop -rotation. b) The farms were easily managed and Farmers could specialize in crop or animal production. c) Farmers could use their title deeds to borrow money from financial firms for the improvement of their farms. **Effects of the land enclosure movement on the peasant farmers in Britain** a. The creation of large farms led to landlessness among the peasant farmers, b. Peasant farmers sold off their land to the rich farmers because they could not afford to cultivate the land. c. The land enclosure movement led to displacement of peasant farmers from their land and hence they migrated to towns/ caused rural -urban migration. d. The rural-urban migration of peasant farmers led to overcrowding in urban centres/ congestion in urban centres. e. The land enclosure movement caused emigrations of the peasants to other countries such as USA, Canada, Australia, new Zealand and south Africa f. The poor farmers were exploited, as they had to sell their labour to farmers and to the factories / exploitation of the poor peasants labour force. 7. The royal agricultural society. It was established in 1838. Through the journals of the society, new ideas and techniques of farming were publicized all over the country. As a result, many farmers began to adopt the modern methods of farming. **CAUSES OF AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN BRITAIN** 1. Land consolidation; the introduction of land enclosures which put to an end to strip farming. As a result more land was under production and more land could be ploughed by one farmer. 2. Development of new methods of livestock breeding; more scientific methods of breeding livestock were developed. They involved selective breeding in which animals with suitable characteristics were maintained in the herds. 3. Development of new tools for farming which helped to increase agricultural productivity .e.g. use of seed drill, Rotterdam plough, threshing machine and tractors. 4. Development of new methods of maintaining soil fertility e.g. the new crop rotation system allowed the continued use of land without exhausting its fertility. Chemical fertilizers were also produced. 5. Development of agricultural research in universities and research institutes assisted in improvement of soils and crop yields. Newspapers and agricultural journals helped to spread the results of this research to farmers. 6. Impact of industrial revolution which provided the agricultural sector with inputs and market. 7. Population increase led to high demand for food. **EFFECTS OF THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN BRITAIN** 1. Food security for the population of Britain due to improved farming methods. 2. There was Growth of population in Britain due to food security lowered mortality rates and increased life expectancy. 3. There was Growth of capital/plantation farming to replace subsistence farming. Due to the enclosure act, ownership of large farms was encouraged and subsequently mechanization/plantations were set up. 4. Poor farmers who could not afford fencing lost their land. Capital farming therefore led to emergence of landless peasants as large tracts of land were consolidated in enclosures. The poor peasants were compelled to migrate to urban areas where they were subjected to poor living conditions. 5. Trade expanded locally and internationally. When farming was commercialized, Britain expanded trade thus boosting her economy. 6. Growth of a working class. The landless peasants sought wage employment on farms or in towns in the emerging new industries. Thus a class of workers began to emerge. 7. Transport systems like roads and railways improved. They were used to transport agricultural products to the market and raw materials to industries. 8. Industries benefited from agricultural raw materials/ develop ment of industries. A number of machines produced by industries were also used in agriculture to boost production. 9. Emigration of British national to other parts of the world. Some of the landless peasants migrated to USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. 10. Intensification of scientific research by the royal agricultural society to carter for the expanding agricultural sector. **THE SPREAD OF AGRARIAN REVOLUTION** From Britain the revolution spread to other parts of Europe and Americas and then the rest of the world. Ideas like crop rotation, use of machines, selective breeding of livestock and use of fertilizers spread into continental Europe from Britain. The governments encouraged agricultural science and research. The work of Louis Pasteur (1890-1960) a Frenchman discovered that disease are caused by bacteria and sterilization of food such as milk through boiling keeps it bacteria-free for long time **THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN THE USA** The Americas was the origin of many crops in the world the American Indians were subsistence farmers growing crops like yams, potatoes, maize (corn), cocoa, tomatoes, cotton, tobacco, beans and cassava.Political and religious differences in Europe in the 17th c forced many Europeans to settle in America as was also the enclosure system in Britain. Craftsmen and labouerers also moved in search of better life. The immigrant settlers came with horses, sheep, cattle, pigs, fowls, seeds and plants from Europe. Some of them participated in improving the machines that were already in use in Europe. For example: a. 1837- John Deere a young blacksmith from Illinois invented a steel plough b. 1837- Cyrus McCormick established a factory in Chicago to produce reapers c. 1837- Daniel Massey produced a similar machine in Canada. d. 1792- Elly Whitney invented the cotton gin and cotton picker American scientists also developed the refrigerator. For example, John Perkins (1766- 1849) an American inventor patented the first prototype refrigerator in England in 1834. The first American patent for a refrigerator was awarded to John Gorrie (1803-1855) in 1851.1859- Ferdinand Carre, a Frenchman invented the absorption system in a refrigerator. This was a major milestone in preservation of meat and other foods in America.Several agricultural zones emerged in America due to differences in soil fertility and climate: a. North-Eastern parts- Ranching and dairying b. The south- cotton zone. c. Central region-maize. d. North-west wheat There was large scale mechanized agriculture especially after the abolition of slave trade. Most cash crops were grown to provide raw materials to European industries. Tobacco was grown in Virginia and Maryland. Rice and indigo were grown in Georgia and South Carolina. Cattles rearing was done in Texas.Transport development also enhanced agricultural development. For example, water transport using the great lakes, railway and road transport.Alexander graham bell invented the telegraph to enhance communication. USA also invested in the field of science and research which boosted agriculture with better hybrid seeds and different strains of livestock. **FACTORS THAT FACILITATED THE DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICUL-TURE** **IN AMERICA BEFORE 1800** a. The enclosure system in Britain led to the Settlement of enterprising European emigrants who wished to make a living through agriculture/Determination of European immigrants to succeed as farmers as there was no other source of livelihood. European immigration into the region also led to population increase and demand for more food. The immigrants also introduced new crops and new methods of farming leading to agricultural development b. Scientific research made it possible to improve strains of crops to resist diseases, to develop superior animal breeds and to develop new food crops e.g. Soya beans into artificial meat, etc. c. Mechanization; there was extensive use of machines to improve production e.g. steel plough, use of reapers, cotton gin etc. d. The presence of cheap means of transport e.g. Erie Canal, roads, railway, etc speeded up the transportation of goods and raw materials. e. The invention of the cotton gin in 1793 led to increased cotton acreage. f. Environmental influence on the farmers through experience leading to agricultural zoning e.g. maize in the centre, wheat in the south and beef rearing in the west/Presence of suitable soils for different types of crops such as tobacco, cotton and wheat. g. Government recognition of individual land ownership (the Homestead Act 1760) encouraged settlers to farm. **EFFECTS OF THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN USA** Fuelled by peasants who emigrated after they were driven out of Europe by the land enclosure movement, USA became the worlds leading producer of agricultural products. The effects of the revolution were as follows: a) It led to diversification of agriculture through the introduction of new farm animals and crops. b) The new inventions in farm machinery enabled American farmers to bring more land under cultivation. For example the steel plough invented by John Deere and reaping machine by Cyrus McCormick. c) Food production especially of wheat and maize, increased due to the use of new farming methods like use of fertilizers and hybrid seeds. d) The agrarian revolution led to expansion of agricultural related industries. e) Mechanization of agriculture replaced slaves and other labourers at the farms. Many people went to search for employment in urban areas. f) The expansion of food production led to increase in trade between USA and Western Europe thus boosting USA economy. g) The transport system was improved to enable transportation of farm inputs to farms and agricultural produce to market. h) The revolution contributed to the enhancement of research and scientific inventions especially on the field of agriculture. **FOOD SITUATION IN AFRICA AND THE REST OF THE THIRD WORLD** Third world refers to the less developed countries in Africa, Asia and South America. Many of these third world countries have food shortages and even continue to have weak economies upto date. **Causes to food shortage in Africa** a. Rapid population growth which has put a lot of pressure on the available food resources leading to shortages b. Poor land use and agricultural practices. Many farmers still depend on traditional farming methods, for example, not applying fertilizers, pesticides or mechanization, thus producing low yields. c. Some developing countries experience adverse weather conditions such as floods and long periods of drought. Since these countries practice rain-fed agriculture, food production has been affected d. Overemphasis on cash crops at the expense of food crops has contributed to low food production. In Kenya for example, large farms concentrate on growth of flowers, tea and coffee with food crop farming being largely for subsistence. e. Rural-urban migration , especially among the young people has deprived the rural areas of the badly needed labour force for food production f. Lack of adequate capital for agricultural development. Low income/poverty. The farmers lack enough funds to purchase farm inputs. g. Political instability in some African countries undermines food production. For example in Ethiopia, Sudan, DRC, Burundi and Rwanda. This has prevented people from concentrating on food production. h. Decline in growing drought resistant crops. Crops like cassava and millet have been abandoned due to attitude thus causing artificial shortage of specific food. i. Poor and inadequate storage facilities have led to food wastage. In Kenya by 2001, the country was losing up to nine million bags of grain per year as a result of poor storage methods. j. Poor transport network leads to uneven distribution of food. It also discourages farmers from producing more. k. Over reliance on food aid and forms of aid has created a dependence attitude in many African countries. Some communities have become complacent about looking for a permanent solution to their food problems. l. Poor economic planning on the part of the government with many countries putting a lot of emphasis on other development projects at the expense of agricultural and food production. m. Poor land tenure systems resulting in low productivity. For example where a few European farmers own large tracts of land but only exploiting a small portion of the expansive farms. n. The HIV/AIDS pandemic contributed to food shortages since the scourge leads to death of many of the work force in their prime years. **Effects of food shortages** a. Loss of life. Many people have lost their lives. For example the Ethiopian famine in 1984 led to the deaths of thousands of people. b. Increased suffering among millions of people in Africa due to deficiency diseases like kwashiorkor and marasmus. c. Food shortage has created social problems in societies. For example cattle raids by the karamojong and Maasai during the periods of famine. Even other anti-social problems like stealing food in rural areas can be attributed to inadequate food supply. d. Sometimes famine and drought has forced people to flee their home countries thus causing refugee problems in the receiving countries. e. Lack of food hampers efforts towards economic development. It Affects education since famine stricken children cannot concentrate on learning. There is Use of scarce foreign exchange to import food. f. It has created dependence on food aid from rich countries. Even some of the genetically created foods are tested in third world countries. Such foods have unknown side-effects. g. It has adversely affected agricultural-based industries.e.g sugar industries.-inevitably thisleads to unemployment. h. It has led to Political instability as people lose confidence in the governments that cannot feed them. **Solutions to food shortage in Africa** a. Land reclamation thus increasing land under agriculture. This may increase food production. b. Re-formulation of agricultural policies so that there is a shift from a concentration on cash crops to paying more attention on food crops. c. Provision of extension services to farmers e.g. information on storage, preservation of farm produce and other forms of advice. d. Revision of the land tenure system- redistribution of land / land reforms as case is in china. e. Development of agro-based industries which will become market to agricultural raw materials like coffee, tea, etc. f. Creation of political stability to enable mobilization of people to self-sufficiency in food production. g. Relentless campaign against killer disease such as AIDS. h. Infrastructural development/ in transport, communication, storage and marketing. i. Environmental conservation measures which may help curb drought spread and ensure sufficient rains./ protection of catchments areas j. Family planning so that people only have children they can be able to feed, cloth and shelter. k. Demand for food to feed the growing population. **STEPS KENYA HAS TAKEN TO SOLVE FOOD SHORTAGES** a) Extensive research has been carried out in research institutions such as the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI) producing hybrid maize such as Katumani that grows in drier areas. ICIPE and ILRI researches in pests and disease that affect both livestock and crops in the country. b) Introduction of genetically engineered crops and animal s into the agricultural sector. These crops, developed mainly at JKUAT and KARI are resistant to diseases and pests. c) Agricultural training institutions have been established to train experts such as agricultural officers, veterinary doctors and horticultural experts. Agriculture is also taught in schools- to equip learners with new and better techniques of farming that could boost production. d) People are being educated about the need for family planning so that families have only number of children whom they can feed and provide for. e) The government has formulated a food security policy to enhance production of food in the country. For example a minimum amount of cereals in the government silos has been set up with urgent measures to top up outlined. **THE PEOPLE OF KENYA UP TO THE 19THCENTURY** **INTRODUCTION** There is immense evidence to confirm that east Africa was the cradle of humankind. Archaeological evidence (for example, the tools found at kobi for a, Olorgesaillie, kariandusi, Mtongwe, around Lake Victoria, lukenya hills, near lake Naivasha) show that Kenya was inhabited by Stone Age people. There is also evidence of use of iron in Kenya dating back as AD270 e.g. at Urewe near Ngiya in Siaya and in Kwale. **THE KHOISAN** According to oral traditions, the earliest people to occupy Kenya were of the Khoisan stock. They had similar features like the Khoi khoi and the san of South Africa, the Sandawe and Hadza of Tanzania. They all spoke a language with a clicking sound. **Cultural aspects of the Khoisan** a) They Spoke a language with a clicking sound like the khoi-khoi of south Africa b) They were nomadic people c) They gathered the wild fruit in the wild and dug up tubers and roots for their foods d) They used stone tools in addition to bows and arrows. e) They fished in rivers and lakes using harpoons f) They made use of rock shelters and caves. g) They buried the dead. h) Made and used pottery. NB- such evidence of the culture of the Khoisan has been found in Gambles and Njoro river caves near Nakuru.These pioneering inhabitants of Kenya disappeared maybe after being subdued and overcome by the powerful incoming Bantus and nilotes.However, there exist some remnants of these hunter-gatherer communities in the western highlands of rift valley. They speak the language of the group near them like kalenjin (okiek), Maasai (Dorobo), Onguye and Okuro in western Kenya. **THE CUSHITES** They existed in two groups: a) The southern Cushites b) The eastern Cushites. **The southern Cushites** They might have entered present day Kenya through northern Kenya and seem to have originated from the Ethiopian highlands. Since they were pastoralists, they must have been looking for better pasture for their livestock.Around 2500 and 3000 years ago, they were already occupying the grasslands of the Kenya highlands cultivating food crops like sorghum , millet and rearing long horned humpless cattle. They even extended upto Tanzania. They included the Iraqi, Boni and Burungi of Tanzania, The Dahallo or Sanye of the lower Tana (the remaining southern Cushites in Kenya). Some were later absorbed by the incoming groups. **The Eastern Cushites** They include the Borana, Somali, Oromo, Gabra, Rendille and Burji. They originated either from Ethiopia or Somalia moving and settling into Kenya around 2000 and 1000 years ago due to the following reasons; a) Escaping from clan or family feuds. b) There was population pressure in their area of origin. c) They were in search of better grazing lands. d) They were fleeing the outbreak of disease that affected both people and animals. e) They were escaping famine and drought. f) They fled constant attacks from their neighbours such as the Somali. g) The migrated to satisfy their spirit of adventure. **THE OROMO** They came in the 16thcentury from Ethiopia. Initially they settled on the eastern shores of Lake Turkana. They later moved south pushing the Mijikenda and the Pokomo out of the Shungwaya to occupy Malindi and Kilifi. Today they occupy the southern part of Tana River and are neighbours to the Pokomo. **Effects of migration and settlement of the Oromo in Kenya** a) They inter-married with the people they came into contact with e.g. Somali, Pokomo and Borana. b) Their settlement in Kenya led to expansion of trade. c) Their settlement led to increased conflict between communities over resources e.g. pasture and water. d) Displacement and redistribution of people in the area where they settled e.g. the Oromo pushed the Bantu from the Shungwaya region. e) Assimilation of some communities they came into contact with e.g. the Oromo vs. Somali. f) Cultural exchange e.g. neighbouring communities adopted Islam. g) Settlement in high agricultural potential areas e.g. river valleys encouraged some of them to practice crop farming. h) Expansion of agriculture due to demand of agricultural produce. **THE BORANA** They are also Oromo speaking people whose origin is southern Ethiopia. Their migration into Kenya was due to escaping the Menelik Wars of Conquest in 1897 and who had imposed heavy taxes on them. They represent some of the most recent migrations into Kenya end as late as 1900 when more Borana groups fled into Kenya from Somali running away from the war between the Somali Nationalists and the British. Today the Borana occupy the area north of the Tana River. **THE SOMALI** They originated from Mogadishu where they were living by 10th century A.D. They begun moving southwards into Kenya around that time maybe due to the Oromo threat or they were looking for pasture for their livestock.The Somali represent the largest single group of eastern Cushites in Kenya. **Results of Cushitic migration into Kenya** a) There was massive warfare during the migrations leading to killing of many people in the process. For example, there was constant warfare between the Somali and the Oromo. i) They displaced some of the communities which they came into contact with e.g. the Oromo pushed the Mijikenda from the Shungwaya region in AD 1500 AND 1600. b) They intermarried with those people they interacted with e.g. the some of the Pokomo intermarried with the Borana. c) Their settlement led to expansion / development of trade between them and their neighbours e.g. they traded with the Samburu and the Maasai. d) There was cultural exchange between them and the Bantu and Nilotic neighbours. E.g. the Taboo against eating Fish among the Bantu, the age set system and circumcision has origin from the Cushites. e) The migrations led to population pressure in the region. f) Adoption of some agricultural practices from the Bantu. g) There was redistribution of population in Kenya. The Mijikenda for example were scattered at Shungwaya. **THE BANTU SPEAKERS** Introduction The term Bantu refers to group of people who speak the same or similar language with common word NTU which means a person. The Bantu-speaking groups include the Luhyia, Kisii, Kuria, Kikuyu, Akamba, Meru, Aembu, Taita, Agiryama, Digo in Kenya and Pokomo, as well as many other smaller groupsTheir original homeland was somewhere between eastern Nigeria and the Cameroon (Congo Basin). They then moved southwards towards present day Democratic Republic of Congo (around 500 BC the Bantu were living in the Congo forest). This became a major dispersal point from where the Bantus moved in four major waves. Of these waves, the two waves that account for settle of the Bantu in Kenya are the ones moving south- eastwards through the area west of LakeVictoria (a 2nddispersal point for Bantus). From here they dispersed in two groups; A. some group passed through present-day Uganda , some settling there (Baganda, Banyoro, Batoro), proceeding into kenya to form the western Bantu(Luhyia, Kisii, Kuria and abasuba) B. From the west Victoria dispersal point a group moved and entered east Africa at appoint south of Lake Victoria and then proceeded eastwards across northern Tanzania to a dispersal point between Taita hills and mt. Kilimanjaro. Some settled in Tanzania (Chagga, nyamwezi, sukuma, Kuria, haya, Yao, Segeju, Zaramo).the rest of the groupproceeded northwards to the coast upto Shungwaya (another dispersal point). These were the eastern Bantus. **REASONS FOR THE BANTU MIGRATION** The reasons for the migration of the Bantu are not known but they most likely included the following; a) Drought and famine: This broke out because the climate in their cradle land had become unreliable/unpredictable. b) Population increase which resulted into population pressure, e.g. they became overpopulated in their cradle land. c) The constant attacks (external pressure) from stronger tribes in West Africa and the Nile valley; also due to the migration of the Arabs, who were believed to be more hostile, into West Africa. d) Internal conflicts from the Bantu tribes: These conflicts concerned the ownership of agriculture area, the shortage of grazing lands and watering areas. e) Epidemics and diseases/natural calamities, e.g. earthquakes, over flooding of rivers like river Niger, sickness, diseases such as Nagana caused by Tsetse flies, sleeping sickness e.t.c. f) Search for fertile land: Since they were predominantly farmers, the Bantu migrated in order to find more land which could be more fertile than the cradle land, which could no longer support them. g) Love for adventure: They moved due to their desire for adventure, i.e. they wanted to find out what was happening in other areas. h) Group influence: Some moved because they had seen their relatives and friends move. i) Need for water and pasture for their animals forced them to move. j) The Bantu migrated in order to export their iron-working culture. They had discovered the knowledge of iron working and had invented iron tools. These iron tools had transformed the agricultural sector by making the clearing of land for cultivation faster and more efficient. **The western Bantu** They include Luhyia, Kisii, Kuria and abasuba and settled in western part of kenya thus their name. **Abaluhyia** ~ The Abaluhyia community is made up of eighteen sub-groups. The sub-groups which constitute the community have a common background, common customs and speak closely related dialects of the same language. ~ According to Abaluhyia tradition, communities used to hold criminal tribunals at the junctions of footpaths. The area at the junction of footpaths was known as Uluyia or a meeting point and it is claimed that the name Abaluhyia is derived from this. Another version states that in a polygamous home the courtyard outside the main fathers house is called Luhyia. All the children are referred as children of one Luhyia and hence the name Abaluhyia. ~ Most of the Luhyia sub-groups point to mt. elgon dispersal point as their origin. The settlement of the Abaluhyia into Kenya dates back to 300 AD. By 1750 AD, many groups had settled in present day Bukhayo, Marama, Tiriki, Bunyore, Wanga and Maragoli. ~ They absorbed some groups they found in the area. Also, their interaction with the Maasai led to establishment of clans like the Abashimuli among the Idakho. The Marachi, Kisa and Samia interacted with the Luo. Abagusii ~ Abagusii traditions acknowledge a close relationship with the following people: the Abakuria, Abalogoli, Ababukusu, Abasuba, Agikuyu, Ameru, Aembu, Ambeere and the Akamba. Their tradition has it that on their way from the country which they call Msiri they were accompanied by the Baganda and the Basoga besides the above groups. ~ The Abagusii and the Abalogoli migrated southwards following the River Nzoia valley and arrived near Lake Victoria between 1490 and 1520. Following an easterly course along the lake shore, they settled at the head of Goye Bay in Yimbo location of Nyanza with their homeland spreading across present day Ulowa, Sare and Unyejra at the foot of Ramogi hill. Luo migrants in 1550 AD found them settled in this general area and pushed them from alego to Kisumu where they lived upto 1600AD. ~ Their migration from Kisumu to Kano was motivated by drought in the area.. However, their eastward migration was checked by the Maasai and the Kipsigis ~ By the 18thcentury, they had settled in the Kisii highlands positively interacting with the neighboring Luo, Maasai and Kipsigis in terms of trade. Why the Abagusii remained in the Kano plains for too long before settling in the Kisii highlands. a) They were obstructed by the Kipsigis who were migrating westwards. b) The Maasai were also quite wild/hostile. c) The plains favored their activity of livestock grazing. d) Lack of a strong warrior group to fight their expansionist wars against the warring neighbors. **Abakuria** ~ The origin of the name Kuria is a thorny point in the Abakuria history. The major Abakuria sub-tribes such as Abanyabasi, Abatimbaru, Abanyamongo, Abakira, Abairegi and Abagumbe have traditions to the effect that their ancestor was Mokuria (or Mukuria) that lived in Msiri. His descendants migrated from Msiri and after many years of wandering on the other side of Lake Victoria; they eventually reached and settled in the present Bukuria By 1800AD,) in south Nyanza.) ~ According to this tradition, the Abakuria have been divided from time immemorial into two families: the Abasai of the elder wife of Mokuria and the Abachuma of the younger wife. ~ The Abakuria are related to Abalogoli of Abaluhyia and Abagusii and trace same origin at mt. elgon dispersal point. ~ The Abakuria people appear to have sprung from too many directions to have a common historical origin, although a number of clans claim to have come from Msiri. ~ Among the Abakuria today are found people who were originally from Kalenjin, Maasai, Bantu and Luo speaking communities. The Abakuria adopted the practice of age set organization and circumcision from the southern Cushites **Abasuba** ~ The name Suba means the people who are always wandering. ~ The Suba migrated into their current locations beginning in the mid-1700s. They came from the region just west of Lake Victoria and settled on the islands. ~ The Suba migrated from Uganda and settled on the two Lake Victoria islands of Rusinga and Mfangano, and are believed to be the last tribe to have settled in Kenya. Other subgroups migrated and settled on the shores of Lake Victoria in the early 18th century. ~ The Suba are descendants of one wave of the Bantu migration from Central Africa over the last 1500 to 1800 years. In the 16th century, it appears, small family groups related to the Ganda people on the western side of the lake migrated across Lake Victoria on boats to settle on Rusinga Island and other islands near what is now Kenya and Tanzania. ~ The Suba are descendants of one wave of the Bantu migration from Central Africa over the last 1500 to 1800 years. In the 16th century, it appears, small family groups related to the Ganda people on the western side of the lake migrated across Lake Victoria on boats to settle on Rusinga Island and other islands near what is now Kenya and Tanzania. ~ Linguistically, the Suba are highly influenced by the neighbouring Luo, to the point of a language shift having taken place among large portions of the mainland Suba. ~ The remaining speakers of the Suba language are mostly elderly residents on the island of Mfangano. **The eastern Bantu** They are divided into Highland or Mt. Kenya Bantu and Coastal Bantu. **Coastal Bantu** They include the Taita, Pokomo and Mijikenda.From the west Victoria dispersal point their first movement was upto Taita hills, where the Taita remained. The Mijikenda and Pokomo proceeded northwards to the coast upto Shungwaya (another dispersal point). The main reason for the Shungwaya dispersal was the Oromo attack In AD 1600. **Pokomo** They moved from Shungwaya following river Tana interacting with the Cushites like the Oromoand Somali. **Mijikenda** The name means Nine Clans comprising of the Kauma, Giriama, Duruma, Chonyi, Jibana, Kambe, Ribe, Rabai and Digo.From the Shungwaya dispersal point,(forced out by the Oromo/Somali southwards expansionist attacks), they settled in fortified villages mainly due to security concerns. Each of the nine groups settled in their own separate ridge referred to as Kaya fortified with thorny trees.By the 19th, the Mijikenda were established as middlemen during the long distance trade between the Akamba and the coastal Waswahili. **The highland Bantu** Examples of highland Bantus include Agikuyu, Ameru, Aembu, Ambeere and the **Akamba** They are also products of the Shungwaya dispersion. **Agikuyu** ~ The largest single group of the eastern group. ~ While the Kikuyu can be found throughout Kenya, the heaviest concentration being in Central Province, known as the traditional Kikuyu homeland. The Kikuyu traditionally believe that a man, Gikuyu, was the founder of the tribe. He had a wife named Mumbi, who gave birth to nine (plus one) daughters. The daughters married and had their own families, retaining a domineering role in Kikuyu society. ~ It was in Mukurwe wa Gathanga division of Nyeri district where an identifiable beginning for the modern Kikuyu people is defined. ~ Ancestors of the Kikuyu arrived in Kenya during the Bantu migrations of 1200-1600 AD. The Agikuyu seem to have moved southwest from the coast at around 1400AD also running away from hostile Oromo. They followed Tana River with some groups falling off and settling in different places. For example the Tharaka settled in the east and the Ambeere settled in the southwest. The main group proceeded upto the confluence of rivers Tana and Thika (Mukurwe wa Gathanga. They spread and settled in Kiambu and Nyandarua from Muranga. ~ The key event in their migration and settlement was military conflict with and defeat of the Gumbapeople by the Mathira and Tetu people, allied with the Athi and the Maasai in the early 1800's. ~ They displaced or absorbed the original inhabitants-the Dorobo (Athi) and Gumba who were a hunter- gatherer community. ~ Settlement of the Nyeri plains took place after the British moved the Maasai from the area. The Kikuyu were in Kabete by around 1850, Ruiru about 1900. ~ They heavily interacted with the Maasai and Cushites in the area. **Describe the relationship between Athi and the Agikuyu** a) The Athi were the original inhabitants of the land where the Agikuyu live presently. b) The Agikuyu claim they bought the land from the Athi. c) The Agikuyu also acquired some cultural practices from the Athi e.g. circumcision, clitoridectomy and age set system. d) The Athi acted as middlemen in the trade between the Agikuyu, Maasai and the coastal people. **Akamba** ~ They point to the area around mt Kilimanjaro as their original homeland. ~ From here they moved to Taita Hills before reaching Tsavo West. They followed the Banks of Athi River in the 15thcentury one group crossing Athi into Ulu. Another group moved south to the Galana River and settled in the region around chyulu hills north of mt. Kilimanjaro ~ By around mid 16thcentury a group of the Akamba had settled in the Mbooni hills near Machakos. ~ Due to environmental influence, the Akamba near Mbooni began to practice agriculture before migrating to iveti, kilungu and masaku. Those that moved to drier Chyulu hills became hunters. The Kitui group adopted pastoralism and hunting and participated in long distance trade. **The Ameru** ~ Their original homeland is claimed to Mbwa, located somewhere at the coast on manda island. The Shungwaya dispersal might have led to the pushing of the Ameru to tigania and igembe regions at around 1400AD. They crossed the Tana River with the Tharaka sections of Agikuyu and settled to the east of tana. The Chuka section settled in the west of river tana. The mwimbi, imenti, tigania and igembe also settled west of the Tana River. ~ According to tradition, the Meru and Agikuyu were initially migrating as one group and separated at around 15thc and 16thc. **Effects of the Bantu Migration** The results of the Bantu migration were both positive and negative. **Positive results** 1. Introduction of iron working the use of iron tools in the interior of East Africa where peoplewere at first using stone tools. There was an increase in food production. 2. Introduction of new crops e.g. yams, bananas: the Bantu introduced and increased the knowledge of food and extensive crop cultivation. Earlier on, the inhabitants of East Africa were food gatherers, but with iron smelting and its results, food production seriously started. 3. The absorbed other tribes e.g. the gathers: This led to widespread Bantu languages of NTUprefix in East Africa. 4. They introduced centralized administration: They introduced a centralized system of government whereby the king acted as the overall ruler, under who were the other chiefs, down to the lay person. This was done in western Kenya by the Wanga. 5. Introduced a system of building permanent homes: They opened new land to settlement in families, clans and villages. 6. The knowledge of iron smelting which the Bantu introduced led to the making of hoes and pangas for tilling and clearing land, the bows, arrows and spears for defense and protection. 7. They introduced subsistence agriculture, whereby they grew enough food for home consumption, and the rest could be kept in case of shortages, or be exchanged in barter trade. Negative effects 1. The Bantu migration led to depopulation: This was caused by the frequent attacks made on the Bantu by Somali and Oromo, or by the Bantu against the people East Africa for land, through wars. 2. There was loss of culture due to cultural absorption: This was brought about due to Bantu intermarrying with the non- Bantu peoples, whom they came across. 3. There was transformation of languages into new ones: This led to the dying down of some of the Bantu languages, while others remained. **The Nilotic speakers** Nilotes is a term originating from the word Nile. The origin of these groups is associated with the Nile River. These are the second largest group after the Bantu. They are divided into three groups; a) River-lake nilotes- the Luo. b) Plains nilotes- the Maasai, Tunkana and Samburu. c) Highlands nilotes- kalenjin groups of the Marakwet, Tugen, Nandi, Kipsigis, Elgeyo , Pokot and Sabaot **River-lake nilotes** They are sometimes referred to as the southern Luos to differentiate them from other riverlake nilotes in Uganda and Sudan like the Dinka, Shilluk, Bor , Anwak, Alur, Acholi, Jopaluo, Padhola, Nuer and Luo of Uganda. They are believed to have originated from Bahr-el-Ghazal region of southern Sudan. They then migrated to Pubungu Pakwach in Uganda where they settled by 1450 AD. They later moved into Kenya. Their arrival caused the displacement of many Bantu- speaking peoples, notably the Gusii, Kuria and Luhya, who were forced into the highlands east and north of the lake. **Why did they leave Bahr-el-Ghazal region?** a) They might have been Escaping from clan or family feuds. b) There was population pressure in their area of origin. c) They were nomadic pastoralists in search of better grazing lands and water for their livestock d) They were fleeing the outbreak of disease that affected both people and animals. e) They were escaping famine and drought. f) They fled constant attacks from their neighbours. g) They were also looking for better fishing grounds. h) The migrated to satisfy their spirit of adventure. Their migration into Kenya began in the 15thc. they moved in four distinct groups; a) Joka-jok- people of jok. Was the first group to enter into kenya from Uganda. They first settled at Ramogi hills in Kadimo Siaya district displacing the earlier Gusii settlers. Two of Joks sons fled to south Nyanza to form the Karachuonyo and Wanjare clans. Thisgroup spread to Sakwa, Alego, Asembo and other parts of Nyanza. b) Joka-Owiny. Owiny moved from Uganda to settle in Sogoma in Alego with his group in the 17thc. he was both a great fighter and leader (Ruoth). He came to be known as Owiny Sigoma and his people Joka Ruoth. This group settled in Kisumu, Nyakach and South Nyanza. c) Joka-Omolo. They came from northern Banyoro and settled temporarily in Ibanda and Bukoli before moving to Ugenya and Gem. They displaced the Abagusii and Abalogoli out of Yimbo. They spread to Alego and then across winam gulf into south nyanza. d) The abasuba. They are Bantu in origin but are associated with the Luo. They are a mixture of Bantu refugees from Uganda who intermarried with the Luo. They settled in the Lake Victoria islands of Mfangano and Rusinga and also in gwasi area. They adopted Luo culture. **Effects of Luo Migration** a) The settlement of the Luo in Kenya led to increase in population in the area. b) Their arrival intensified conflicts between them and other communities in the area over limited resources. For example they displaced the western Bantu like the Abaluhyia, **Abakuria and Abagusii** c) There were intermarriages between the Luo and the Luyia and Maasai groups in the area. d) The Luo assimilated some Luhyia communities living in the area. e) Their settlement enhanced trade with different communities; they exchanged livestock products for grains with the Luyia. f) The Luo adopted agriculture as a result of interacting with the Bantus who were farmers. **Plain Nilotes** They include the Maasai and Samburu (Maa speakers), Iteso, Turkana and Njemps. The Plain Nilotes entered Kenya at around AD 1000 from an area north of Lake Turkana. **Why they moved into Kenya:** a) Drought and famine that broke out in their cradleland. b) Population increase which resulted into population pressure in their cradle land. c) The external pressure from stronger neighbours. d) Internal conflicts from among other Nilotic groups concerning the ownership of grazing lands and watering areas. e) Epidemics and diseases like sleeping sickness affecting both humans and animals. f) They moved due to their desire for adventure, i.e. they wanted to find out what was happening in other areas. g) Need for water and pasture for their animals forced them to move. Their first point of settlement was near Mount Moroto in eastern Uganda by AD 1000. From here, several groups like the Jie, Iteso, Turkana and karamojong emerged, with the Iteso settling in Uganda in 17thc before expanding into western Kenya by 19thc. The Turkana extended northwards to their present area. **The effects of the migration and settlement of the iteso** a) The settlement of the iteso in their present region led to increase in population in the area. b) It intensified conflicts between them and other commu nities in the area over limited resources. c) There were intermarriages between the iteso and the Luyia groups in the area. d) Cultural interaction giving rise to enriched cultures. e) Some people were displaced from the area with the arrival of the iteso. E.g. the Maasai and some kalenjin communities. f) The iteso assimilated some communities living in the area. g) Their settlement enhanced trade with different communities; they exchanged livestock products for grains with the Luyia. h) The iteso adopted agriculture as a result of interacting with the Bantus who were farmers **The Maasai** ~ Their movement from north of lake Turkana is closely associated with the original Kalenjin speakers. By AD 1500, the Maasai begun to move separately southwards between Mt,. Kenya and Mt. Elgon. By 19thc , they had settled in Uasin Gishu and even spread into Tanzania along the Rift Valley. ~ As they moved, they assimilated the Sirikwa peoples. They also waged war against the neighbouring Kalenjin, Akamba and Abagusii. ~ In the 1850s the Maasai experienced many natural disasters like drought, famine and cattle diseases leading to decline of their power. They also experienced civil wars between the Kwavi (iloikop) and the Purko (Ilmaasai) sections. When Oloibon Mbatian died, his two sons Sendeyo and Lenana became involved in a protracted succession dispute. They were also weakened by wars with the Agikuyu. Their power came to an end with the coming of British rule. **Effects of the migration and settlement of the plain nilotes into Kenya** a) The migration and settlement of the Maasai in their present region led to increase in population in the area. b) As they migrated, into Kenya, the Maasai pushed and displaced the communities they came across. For example, they subdued the Nandi in the 18thc. c) The Maasai influenced the fighting tactics of other groups in Kenya. d) The Maasai absorbed the southern Cushites such as the Dorobo. e) There were intermarriages between the Maasai and the Akamba, Agikuyu and even the kalenjin groups in the area. f) There was Cultural interaction giving rise to enriched cultures. They adopted some cultural practices from the southern Cushites for example, the age-set systems circumcision and clitoridectomy. They also adopted some Kalenjin vocabulary. g) Their settlement enhanced trade with different communities; they exchanged livestock products for grains with the Luyia. h) A section of the Maasai adopted agriculture as a result of interacting with their agricultural neighbours in the Rift Valley. The Kwavi Maasai became mixed farmers. i) They influenced Communities like the Nandi who adopted the institution of Prophet or diviner from the institution of Laibon among the Maasai. **The Highland Nilotes** They comprise the kalenjin speakers namely the Tugen, Nandi, Kipsigis, Marakwet, Keiyo, Pokot and Sabaot. They are believed to be the earliest Nilotic speakers in Kenya. This evidenced from the narratives of their neighbours like the Luo. Their traditions point their original homeland to be a place to the north-western part of Kenya, between Sudan and Ethiopia. **Why they migrated:** a) They might have been Escaping from internal enemies causing clan or family feuds. b) There was population pressure in their area of origin forcing them to look for new land for settlement. c) They were fleeing the outbreak of diseases and epidemics that affected both people and animals. d) They were escaping famine and drought. e) They fled constant attacks from their neighbours. f) They were also looking for better lands for cultivation. g) The migrated to satisfy their spirit of adventure. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Helot 2012-2013 49 They began migrating from their cradleland in around 600AD. By 700AD, some kalenjin groups like the Sirikwa were already occupying the rift valley. Some were later pushed out of the Mt. elgon region by the incoming Bantu and plain nilotes. Those that remained include the Bok, Bongomek and Kony. The Terik later migrated to western Kenya and greatly borrowed from the Bantu, adopting a new name, Tiriki. **The Nandi.** They were pushed out of the Mt. Elgon region between 1700 and 1800 by the incoming **Maasai.** The decline of the Maasai in the 19thc made them rise to become a formidable group that conducted raids against their neighbours like the Abaluhyia and Luo. Their power only declined due to colonization. **The Kipsigis** They are believed to have separated together with the Nandi from other kalenjin groups at around Mt. Elgon region around AD1600. They moved south east to Teo, near Lake Baringo. Due to the Maasai attacks, they moved westwards to Tambach where they stayed for a long period. They later moved southwards to Rongai near Nakuru. They only separated from the Nandi due to drought and the Maasai Raids on the Nandi. The Kipsigis moved further south to Kericho while the Nandi moved to Aldai during the 2nd half of 18thc. The Kipsigis settled at Kipsigis Hills forming a strong community that assimilated thelegendary Sirikwa and some Maasai and Abagusii groups. They were for a long time allies of the Nandi. **What factors contributed to the Nandi and Kipsigis split during the mid 18th** **century.** a) Maasai attacks on the two communities forcing each group to find its own means of Defence. b) Drought which caused scattering in search of food and pasture. c) Constant conflicts over the limited resources in the region leading to warfare and final split. **Results of the Highland nilotes migration** a) It increased intercommunity conflicts in the region. b) Some of the Kalenjin groups assimilated Bantu cultures while their culture was also assimilated by other groups.

E.g. the Bantu and the nilotes learned the art of cattle milking and bleeding, irrigation and manuring from the southern Cushites. h) Specialization emerged mainly due to inter-community trade in the region. i) There was also increased wealth in some communities. For example through the trade between the Agikuyu and the Akamba, some Agikuyu gained wealth. j) New economic activities sprung up in some communities. E.g. the Maasai adopted crop cultivation from the Agikuyu. k) The Bantu language was enriched through the borrowing of some vocabulary from the southern Cushites. l) The Abakuria were able to develop into a distinct ethnic group as a result of constant raids from the Maasai and the Luo. **SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL ORGANIZATION OF KENYAN** **COMMUNITIES IN THE 19THCENTURY** **THE BANTU** **Social organization** ~ Almost all the Bantu communities were organized in clans made up of people with common descent. ~ All the Bantu communities practiced circumcision.

They sold pots, baskets, cattle, fish and livestock for grains, spears, arrows and canoes from the Abaluhyia, Abagusii, Kipsigis and Nandi. ~ They also Cultivated plants like millet, sorghum, etc ~ Most of them practiced hunting and gathering to get additional meat and hides and to supplement the food they produced. ~ They practiced craft. Women specialized in production of pottery products, baskets and clothes **Political organization of the Luo** The Luo were a decentralized community. The family was the basic political unit among the Luo. The head of the family was referred to as Jaduong. Several related families made up a clan headed by a council of elders called Doho whose main responsibility was to settle inter-family disputes. Below the Doho were lineage councils called Buch Dhoot that tackled domestic issues Above the Doho was a grouping of clans called Oganda headed by a council of elders reffered to as Buch piny and headed by a chief elder called Ruoth. The Buch piny comprised representatives from each clan. It was responsible for settling inter -clan conflicts, declaring war and punishing criminals such as murderers.Religious leaders among the Luo also influenced politics. E.g rainmakers and diviners.One of the members of the council of elders was given a responsibility of advising the council on military matters and was therefore a war leader (osumba Mrwayi). Under them was a special group of warriors reffered to as Thuondi (bulls). Their work was to raided neighbouring communities like the Maasai, Nandi and Abagusii and other perceived enemies. **The Cushites** These were the smallest linguistic group in Kenya inhabiting the northern part of Kenya. They are a nomadic Sam speaking group. They comprise the Borana, Gabra, Galla (Oromo), Rendille and Burji.The communities developed complex social, economic and political institutions that were interrupted by the coming of the Muslims and Europeans. **Social organization of the Cushites** The Cushites had a patrilineal society, which means they traced their origins through the fatherThe Cushites believed in a common ancestor which makes their kinship system strong.All the Cushitic communities practiced circumcision of boys and clitoridectomy for girls as a form of initiation. This was a rite of passage into adulthood.After circumcision, the initiates were taught about their adult roles and their rights as members of the community.Circumcision marked an entry into an age set whose functions included defending the community from external attacks, building huts and advising junior age- sets on how to raid.Each age set had a leader with specific duties. They believed in the existence of a supreme god, who was the creator of everything. He was given different names. The Oromo referred to him as wak(waq).They also believed in spirits which inhabited natural objects like rocks and trees. The Cushites had shrines from which they prayed to their God. Later on, through interaction with their neighbours, all the Cushites became Muslims by the 16thc.The Cushitic speakers were polygamous and their marriage was exogamous in nature.Inheritance was from father to son among the Cushites. The elder son inherited the fathers property and shared it with his younger brothers. Girls had no right to inheritance.The Cushitic life was full of ceremonies. They celebrated life both in song and dance. There were songs for initiations, childbirth, marriage, harvest and funeral. **Economic organization** They had a diversified economic system that catered for their livelihood and supported their lifestyle.They basically practiced Pastoralism/livestock keeping in their semi-arid region They kept cattle, goats, camel and donkeys. Camels and cattle provided milk and blood and were assigning of prestige. Goats and sheep provided meat. Some Cushites who lived along river valleys practiced substance agriculture where they grew grain crops, vegetables, dates, peas, pepper, tubers and bananas.They also practiced iron smelting and made iron tools e.g. swords, knives, bangles and arrow heads.They hunted wild game for food, ivory, skins (hides) for clothing, bedding and gathered fruits and roots and vegetables. They engaged in craft industry e.g. production of leather items such as handbags, belts etc.Some of them who lived near rivers and along the Indian Ocean practiced fishing.They traded with their neighbours e.g. the Pokomo and the Samburu. **Political organization of the Cushites** All the Cushitic communities like other groups in Kenya, had decentralized forms of government. The clan formed the basic political unit for all the Bantu communities. Each clan was made up of related families. The social and political system of the Cushites was interwoven that the social divisions, age set system were also important aspects of the political system.Leadership of the clan was in the hands of a council of elders who played a pivoted role in solving disputes, acting as ritual experts, presiding over religious ceremonies, maintaining law and order and making executive decisions affecting the community like declaring war.Among the Cushites a clan was independent of others except when the wider community faced a common enemy or problem.The Cushites developed an age-set system that had some political significance. After circumcision, the boys joined the age-set after initiation to provide warriors who defended the community from external attacks and raid other communities for cattle.The age set system was based on about ten groups each with its own leader. At the end of an age cycle, a ceremony was performed and the senior age sets retired from public life and settled in different territories. **The Somali** The social organization of the Somali.Like Somali were organized into clans each comprising of families whose members claimed common descent. They also had an age set system. Circumcision marked an entry into an age set whose functions included defending the community from external attacks, building huts and advising junior agesets on how to raid. Each age set had a leader with specific duties. They believed in the existence of a supreme god, whom they referred to as wak (waq). He was the creator of everything. They had religious leaders who mediated between God and the people Later on, through interaction with their neighbours, all the Somali became Muslims by the 16thc.The Somali valued marriage as an important institution. They were polygamous and their marriage was exogamous in nature. **Political organization of the Somali** The Somali had a decentralized political system of administration. The basic political unit was the clan made up of related families. The clan was headed by a council of elders in charge of day to day affairs of the clan e.g. making major decisions and settling disputes and presiding over religious ceremonies.The Somali had an age set system and all male members of the society belonged to an age set. Each age set performed specific roles/duties. From the age set system, there evolved a military organization for community defence. Initiates joined the age set system after circumcision. With the advent of Islamic religion political organization changed. They now had community leaders called sheikhs whose role was mainly advisory.The political system was now based on the Islamic sharia. **Economic organization** a) The Somali were hunters and gathers. They hunted wild game for food and gathered fruits and roots and vegetables. b) They basically practiced nomadic Pastoralism. They kept cattle, goats, camel and sheep.Their diet was mainly milk, meat and blood. c) They traded with their neighbours to get what they could not produce e.g. the Pokomo and the Mijikenda from whom they acquired grains. d) A section of the Somali practiced iron smelting and made iron tools e.g. swords, knives, bangles and arrow heads. They also engaged in craft industry e.g. production of leather items such as handbags, belts etc. e) Such craft activities were despised among the Somali and were associated with a group whom they referred to as Sab (outcasts). **The Borana** They are a branch of the Oromo or Galla people who came from Ethiopia. **Social organization** The Borana had a complex social organization.The society was divided into clans led by elders whose responsibility was to settle disputes and maintaining law and order. Each clan was made up of related families. The borana had a strong belief in the extended family.The Borana were nomadic. But they had a residential section called the camp that consisted of a few huts of related families. .In the camps, it was the most senior married and competent man who became the head of the camp (abba olla). He would have his wifes hut built on the extreme left.The Borana had a complex age-set structure called Gada. Each Gada was headed by the most powerful individual among the group members (Abba boku). His duty would be to preside over village meetings, proclaim laws and preside over religious ceremonies.The community had two kinship groups that practiced exogamous marriage.. A man from the Gona kinship would only marry from the Sabbo kinship. Polygamy was allowed.The family among the borana was headed by a man referred to as Abba warra with the wife as the female head of the household (Hatimana) There was division of labour in the society. The men defended the camps, wells, herds and shrines. They dug wells and organized raiding parties. The men also elected leaders of camps, age sets and Gada class. The women performed household duties, wove baskets for carrying children, prepared leather and built houses. Boys herded sheep, goats and cattle. Elders presided over the court cases.The borana worshipped a powerful God, the creator whom they called Wak (waq). He was worshipped through religious leaders They had a patrilineal society where inheritance was from the father to the son, and specifically the first son, angafa, who would then redistribute the inherited cattle to the younger brothers.Their culture was full of ceremonies. For example, there were ceremonies when a Gada class entered or left a Gada grade, there was war ceremony (butta) and a muda ceremony in honor of the kinship leader, kallu. **Economic organization** a) The borana were basically practiced nomadic Pastoralists who kept cattle, goats and sheep. Cattle was slaughtered as part of their religious rituals and also provided raw materials for houses and other local industries. b) They traded with their neighbours to get what they could not produce e.g. they exchanged their animals with the Mijikenda from whom they acquired grains. c) The Borana were hunters and gathers. They hunted wild game for food and gathered fruits and roots and vegetables. d) Those who settled in the fertile region along the tana valley grew crops like beans and pepper. e) The Borana women engaged in craft industry e.g. production of leather items such as handbags, belts etc. men also made wooden tools, weapons and utensils. f) The Borana also practiced fishing as they settled along river tana. **Political organization of the borana** Their political system was based on the kinship system where the society was divided into clans comprising related families. There were two moieties (kinships) that were further divided into sub-moieties. The sub-moieties were further divided into clans. Each moiety was headed by a hereditary leader known as kallu. The kallu of the Sabbo for example came from the dyallu clan of the karrayyu sub-moiety.The kallus camp was the spiritual and political centre of the group. His duties included leading in ritual ceremonies, providing judgment in major conflicts between clans.He was elected together with the council of the Gada leaders of each gad class when it prepared to enter a new grade.The kallu were not authorized to bear arms or defend themselves but were to move in company of other members of the society.The borana society was divided into clans led by a council of elders whose responsibility was tosettle disputes and maintaining law and order. Each clan was made up of related families who lived in a residential section called the camp that consisted of a few huts of related families. .Powers were distributed equally between the two moieties at all levels such as in the Gada class, age-set and camp councils as well as in tribal ceremonies.The complex age set system mainly provided a military base for the society. The age sets, Hariyya, were recruited from boys of the same age. Gada class (Luba) was recruited genealogically. There were eleven grades through which the Gada classes passed from birth to death, with each grade lasting eight years. While age set members were of the same age, Gada members were of varied ages. The age sets formed the age set council that recruited the warriors.Members of the Gada classes formed the Gada council (lallaba) which the responsibility of making decisions for their classes. They also resolved conflicts between non-relatives and mobilized economic activities such as digging wells, organizing societal rituals and ceremonies and directing relatives with their neighbours such as the Oromo and Somali.The councils contributed to the development of an effective political organization.The complexity of the borana institutions strengthened unity among them. However, the coming of the colonialists in the 20th century heavily impacted on these nomadic pastoral community. **CONTACTS BETWEEN EAST AFRICA AND THE OUTSIDE WORLD UP TO** **THE 19TH C.** The early contacts were initially at the coast but later spread inland. The early visitors included the Arabs, Greeks, Chinese, Persians, Portuguese, British, French and the Dutch. **The East African coast** The existing documentaries and archaeological evidence about the historical information on the east African coast include; ~ The Graeco- Roman Documentary which only makes indirect references to the east African coast. ~ The Swahili chronicles written by the people of the coast. E.g the Kilwa chronicle gives account of achievements of coastal rulers before the arrival of the Portuguese. ~ The writings of Pliny, a Roman Geographer who wrote about the high cost of trade with India in his book, The Natural History. ~ Periplus of the Erythrean Sea; by a Greek merchant in 1st C AD describes the people and places along the coast and the Indian Ocean Trade. (Erythrean Sea Trade). ~ Geopgraphia by Claudius Ptolemy makes reference to east African coast and the trade along Somalia and Kenyan coasts. ~ Christian Topography of Cosmos Indico of the 6TH C describes the trading activities on the coast of East Africa. ~ Renowned travelers like Al-Mosudi, Al Idrisi and Ibn Battuta wrote firsthand accounts about the places they visited and the people they met at the coast in the 10th C AD. ~ The existing archaeological evidence in east Africa include the remains of pottery , iron tools, beads and coins which prove the presence of international trade. **Early visitors to the east African coast upto 1500.** Due to the great accessibility of the east African coast, there was widespread interaction between it and the people from the outside world. This was also aided by the monsoon winds that blew vessels / ships to the coast between November and April and took them away between may and October. The earliest visitors were the Egyptians, Phoenicians and Indonesians.Others who came later on included the Greeks, Persians, Romans, Chinese, Arabs, Syrians, Indians and the Portuguese. **The Greeks** Their coming to east Africa is accounted for by the quarrels between the Seleucid rulers in Greece and the Ptolemaic Greeks in Egypt over control of the land route to the east through the Mediterranean lands.The rising demand for ivory made the ptolemies venture into the red sea and finally into the east African coast. Evidence of Greek existence on the coast is the Ptolemic Gold Coin found near Dar es Salam. **Romans** In AD 45, Hippalus, a Roman sailor using monsoon wind knowledge reached the red sea and entered the Indian Ocean. The Romans were keen on breaking the Arab monopoly over trade.Evidence of trade between the Romans and the coast is in the writing of a Roman Historian Pliny (23-79AD) who points out the high coast of trade between India, Arabia and china.The fall of the Roman Empire in the 5th c AD affected international trading network in the Roman Empire. **Persians** They were mainly immigrants from Shirazi on the eastern shore of the Persian Gulf. Their adventure into the east African coast happened during the reign of the Sassanid Dynasty(224-636AD), which was determined to rebuild the Persian Empire that had been destroyed by the Macedonian Greeks, through wealth amassed from international trade. By the 6th c, the Persians were trading in India and later china, controlling the red sea and parts of Egypt and Arabia.They got involved in the east African trade and even established ruling dynasties9 e.g. the (Shirazi Dynasty) at the coast. They intermarried with the locals and introduced Islamic religion.They were later overthrown by the Arabs. The succeeded in introducing Bowls of glass, swords, beakers and pots to the coast. **Chinese** They visited the coast in the middle ages. This is evidenced in the work of the Chinese authors during the Sung Dynasty (960- 1279 AD) and Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), who referred to the east African coast as Tseng- Pat or Pseng- Po.There has also been evidence of Chinese coins dating to 700 AD at the coast.The last Chinese fleet must have reached Mogadishu in 1430AD. The Chinese brought in Silk cloth, porcelain bowls and plates in exchange for Gold\\, leopard skin, Rhino Horns and tortoise shells. Porcelain remains have been found at the coast. **Arabs** The earliest Arab settlers to arrive were the Daybui from Daybul In north western India. They arrived along the east African coast by AD 650 for trade. The earliest Arab settlement was Qanbalu (Pemba). They later settled in manda, Kilwa. Lamu and Mombasa.The Arabs reffered to the Africans as the Zenj (Blacks) **Factors that facilitated the coming of Arabs to the east African coast.** ~ The Indian ocean provided the highway through which the traders traveled ~ The traders had the skills of harnessing the monsoon winds (trade winds) they knew what times of the year to come to the coast and what times to go back. ~ The traders had marine technology e.g. they had ship-building technology and knew how to use the compass for navigation of the ocean ~ They ensured the control of the red sea was in their hands to bar the enemy from attacking them ~ The ports of southern Arabia were good calling places on their journey between the east and the west. ~ The deep harbours at the coast were ideal for their ships to anchor, refuel and get supplies. **Reasons for the coming of the Arabs** ~ They wanted to trade and control the commercial activities along the east African coast. ~ Some Arabs came as refugees, fleeing from religious and political persecutions in Arabia. ~ They came to spread their religion, Islam. ~ Some came as explorers to explore the east African coast. ~ Some came to establish settlements along the east African coast. **Trade between the East African coast and the outside world** There is sufficient evidence of the existence of regular trading contacts between east African coast and the countries in the Middle East and Far East. **Development and organization of the trade** ~ The earliest foreign traders must have been the Romans who traded with the Indians in the Far East. They made stopovers at the east African coast for ivory whose demand had grown tremendously. ~ Muslim Arabs acted as intermediaries in the Indian Ocean trade between the Indians and the Romans. They also exported frankincense and myrrh among other things. ~ Traders from Persia, Arabia and Syria brought glass beakers and bowls, swords, pots, grains, sugar, cloth and beads in exchange for palm oil, tortoise shells, ivory and slaves. ~ The Greek, roman and Chinese traders brought porcelain bowls, daggers, swords, pottery, cowrie shells, glassware, beads and silk in exchange for ivory, rhinoceros horns, bee wax, tortoise shells , coconut oil and mangrove poles. Cowrie shells were obtained from Maldives islands while spices came from Spice Island. ~ East Africa also exported leopard skins, gold, ostrich feathers, copal, copper and iron. Ivory was used in Asia to make bangles, bracelets, piano keys and for decorations ~ The traders relied on the monsoon winds to blow their ships to and from the east African coast. ~ The Indian Ocean trade was conducted through the barter system but later coins were used as a medium of exchange. During barter, the foreigners bartered their goods with gold, ivory and slaves. Seyyid said later introduced copper and silver coins. ~ The middlemen in the trade included the Arabs and Swahili who organized caravans to the interior to acquire local goods which they sold to traders at the coast. ~ As there was no common language spoken, trading was conducted silently, hence the name silent trade ~ Capital for the trade was provided by the Arabs. Later the Indian banyans started giving credit facilities to the traders which increased the volume of trade. ~ The sultan of Zanzibar provided security to the Arab traders, enabling them to penetrate the interior to acquire goods. ~ The trade stimulated development of towns along the coastline. E.g Rhapta (probably located between pangani and Dar es Salam), Essina and Sarapion were the earliest towns to grow. Lamu Malindi Mombasa, pate and Brava also developed. ~ The merchants settled at various places on the coast and on the islands and interacted with the locals leading to development of the Swahili culture. Factors which promoted the Indian Ocean trade. (a) Availability of items of trade from the east African coast and foreigner countries. For example, ivory, slaves, cotton and porcelain. (b) The high demand for trade items from the coast by consumers from the outside world was also a promoting factor. This was caused by the uneven distribution of resources. Foreign items were also on demand at the coat. (c) The existence of enterprising merchants in both the foreign lands and the east African coast led to promotion of trade links. The Akamba, Mijikenda, nyamwezi and Swahili middlemen for example played a pivoted role in the trade. (d) The existence of local trade among Africans which acted as a base upon which the Indian Ocean trade was developed. (e) The accessibility of the east African coast by sea. This enabled the foreigner traders to reach the region across the Indian Ocean. (f) The existence of the monsoon winds facilitated the movement of the vessels which made it possible for the traders to travel to and from the coasty. (g) The existence of peace and political stability at the east African coast created a conducive atmosphere for business transactions. Where there was need, the traders were given security by the sultan of Zanzibar. (h) The existence of natural harbours along the coast ensured safe docking of the trade vessels for fueling and off-loading. (i) The advancement in the ship building technology in Europe gave great advantage to the traders. This made water transport reliable and regular. (j) The existence o the Indian Banyans (money lenders) who gave credit facilities enabled many more people to join the trade. **Impacts of the trade on the peoples of east Africa** (a) The trade led to intermarriage between Muslim traders with the local Bantu communities giving rise to the Swahili people with a distinct culture. (b) There was emergence of Kiswahili as a new language of the coastal people. The language is a mixture of Bantu and Arabic languages. (c) The trade led to the spread of the Islamic culture along the coastal region. Stone buildings were constructed, new dressing styles arose (women began to wear buibui while men wore kanzus), new eating habits also evolved. (d) The Islamic law, sharia was also introduced. (e) Many Africans were converted to Islam. However the religion did not spread beyond the coastal region prior to the 19th c. (f) New crops were introduced along the coast. For example, rice, wheat, millet, cloves, vegetables and fruits such as bananas and oranges. Cloth, cowrie shells and spices were also introduced. (g) Profits derived from the trade were used to develop towns like Pemba, Mombasa, Lamu, Zanzibar and Kilwa.
(h) The trade led to the rise of a class of rich merchants exhibiting a high standard of living. African merchants who rose to prominence included chief Kivoi among the Akamba, Ngonyo of the Giriama, Mwakikonga of the Digo, Nyungu ya mawe, Mirambo and Msiri of the Nyamwezi. (i) There was decline of the local industries like weaving and iron working which were affected by the influx of foreign goods like cloth fro India and iron tools from Asia and Europe. (j) There was destruction of wildlife, especially elephant and rhinoceros due to the increased demand for ivory. (k) The increased demand for slaves promoted warfare among the communities as many people were captured during slave raids. It also created fear while others lost their life during the warfare. (l) Slave trade also disrupted African economies as able bodied men were captured leaving behind the aged, weak, and children who made little contribution. Many even died of starvation since they could not participate in food production. (m) African population in the hinterland greatly reduced as many were sold into slavery. (n) Money (currency) was introduced as a means of exchange to replace the barter system of trade. (o) East African coast was exposed to the outside world through trade. This paved way for European imperialism later on. (p) Trade routes led to the establishment of trade caravan routes which later were upgraded to by the colonialists. **The coming of the Portuguese** Since the 10th century Arabian influence along the coast had been strong. Most of the port towns along the East African coast had been built by Arab Sultans, who brought the Muslim religion to the coastal people.The Portuguese explorer and soldier, Vasco da Gama, was the first European to make contact with the people of the East African Coast. He had been paid by the King of Portugal to find a sea route to India. **The Portuguese at the East African coast 1500 1700 A.D** The Portuguese were the first Europeans to have contacts with the people of the East African Coast. They invaded the east African coast in 1498 at a time when the Ottoman Empire occupied most of the Middle East thus blocking the overland route to India from Europe.They were adventurous and in search for the sea route to India. This led them to the East African Coast where they stayed for 200 years. Reasons for the coming of the Portuguese at the East African coast a) The need to establish a commercial empire in order to get the products of East Africa e.g. ivory, gold, silks and spices that were mainly controlled by the Arabs merchants. b) They wanted to obtain control of the main trading towns, e.g. Kilwa, Mombasa etc. c) They wanted to defeat the Muslim traders and rulers who had monopolized the Indian Ocean trade. d) They wanted to prevent other European rivals from gaining access to the Indian Ocean Trade e.g. the French, Dutch, and British e) Desire to get revenue for the development of their country. f) The Portuguese wished to share in the profits of the Indian Ocean Trade by imposing taxes and forcing wealthy coastal towns to pay tribute to the king of Portugal. g) The coast had natural harbors where ships could anchor on their way to and from the East for fresh food and water. The Portuguese therefore wanted to establish a calling station for resting, refresh, treating the sick, repairing wrecked ships e.t.c h) The coast was strategically located and this made it easy to control sea pirates and other rival powers. i) They wanted to revenge on the Muslim Arabs who had conquered Portugal in 711 AD by converting them to Christianity and stop the spread of Islam i.e. the Arabs had ever run the Iberian Peninsula and forced the Christians to accept Islam. j) They hoped to get assistance of King Prester John thought to be in the interior of north east Africa. They hoped the king would help them in their crusade against the Muslims. k) They had hope of stopping Egyptians and Turks from sending military aid to their fellow Moslems on the coast. l) They were interested in exploration and adventure; this was a period of Renaissance (means to be born again/change) in Europe. Hence hoped to search for the unknown, new knowledge and sailing across un mapped seas. m) Desire to acquire revenue for the development of their country. Portuguese conquest of the coast 1500-1510 (Stages of conquest) Steps taken by the Portuguese to occupy the East African coast. ~ In 1497 King John 11 sent Padro da Covillha on a land journey to India to gather information about the Eastern trades and the sea routes. ~ In 1498 Bathromew Diaz sailed around the Cape of Good Hope, thus proving that there was a way round South Africa to the Indian Ocean. ~ Between 1497- 1499 Vasco da Gama at the command of King Emmanuel the fortunate of Portugal visited Mozambique, Mombasa and Malindi on his way to India. He arrived in Malindi in March 1498 to a warm welcome by the locals. ~ He returned to Portugal in 1499 and gave a report of the flourishing Sofala trade, the Deep Harbour in Mombasa and the existing disunity of coastal people. ~ In response to Vasco da Gamas expeditions, the king of Portugal sent fleets of ships to conquer the important trading towns of the East African coast. ~ In 1500 Pedro Alvares Cabral attempted to capture Sofala with its Gold trade but he failed. ~ In 1502 Vasco da Gama came back with 19 ships aiming at capturing Kilwa because it was the most important and prosperous. He captured the palace, imprisoned the Su ltan and only released him when he accepted to pay tribute to Portugal. ~ From Kilwa he invaded Mombasa, which tried to get assistance from Malindi but since they were great rivals Malindi refused to give assistance, this disunity made the work of conquest easy. ~ In 1503 Ruy Laurence Ravasco was sent with a number of ships and forced the islands of Mafia and Zanzibar and other towns to pay tribute to Portugal. ~ In 1504, Lopez destroyed gold trade at Kilwa. Attacks were too much on the harbour that trade came to a standstill. But again the Arabs failed to unite to fight the Portuguese. ~ In 1505 Francisco DAlmeida arrived at the coast on his way to Gao where he had been appointed the first Portuguese viceroy (governor) of the Eastern Empire. With 1500 men and 20 ships, he attacked Sofala which surrendered without struggle because she was tired of Kilwas rule and therefore preferred the Portuguese to fellow Arabs. His forces continued northwards and attacked Kilwa. The Sultan and his followers took off to the bush while the Portuguese looted and burnt down the town before he departed to India. He also conquered Mombasa. ~ In 1506 1507 Tristao Da Cunha took on the Northern towns of Socotra, Oja, Brava and Lamu. Towns that submitted without struggles were only asked to pay tribute to Portugal. Malindi was even excused from paying tribute due to her friendship with the Portuguese. ~ In 1509 Alba quiqui captured the remaining towns i.e. the work of conquest was completed with taking the islands of Pemba, Mafia, and Zanzibar. Mombasa was burnt down. ~ By 1515 the Portuguese had succeeded in conquering most of the coastal towns, bring them under Portuguese rule. However towns like Gedi, Kilifi, Pate, Manda, Mombasa and Lamu continued with resistance. Mombasa was heavily attacked in 1528. ~ In 1585, a Turkish captain, Amir Ali Bey, arrived at the coast as an envoy of the sultan of turkey to free the coastal towns from the Portuguese. Rebellion then broke out between 1585 and 1588 between Ali Bey, the Portuguese, and the people of Mombasa and Zimba warriors. The towns of pate, Siyu and Pemba were attacked and forced to pay heavy fines while manda was completely destroyed. ~ Portugal finally brought all the coastal towns under her control establishing her headquarters in Mombasa that had been subdued in 1589. in 1593, the Portuguese built fort Jesus **Why the Portuguese build Fort Jesus** a) They used it as a watch tower b) To hide against attacks by the enemies c) As military base d) To offer food security and protection. e) To act as an armament. f) To act as a prison for the captives. ~ Portuguese control of the east African coast as greatly supported by the conquest of Hormuz, which made it easier for them to control sea traffic in the Persian Gulf, Gulf of Eden and Arabian Sea. **Why the Portuguese defeated the East African Coastal towns/Why the Portuguese** **were successful** a) They had superior weapons e.g. cannon guns which made terrible noise and threw people in panic as compared to the poor musket guns of the coastal Arabs. b) They had well trained soldiers with superior skills of fighting compared to the coastal people who had no permanent organized army e.g. Vasco da Gama, Francisco DAlmeida were ruthless army commanders which helped them to defeat the coastal dwellers. c) They had better and faster ships (carracks) well equipped for naval warfare. The Portuguese soldiers wore Armour on their bodies and helmets on their heads, which protected them from the weapons of the coastal people. d) The coastal towns were disunited which gave chance to the Portuguese to fight isolated enemies e.g. Malindi refused to unite with Mombasa due to local conflicts. Some cooperated with the invaders giving them food and bases e.g. Malindi and Sofala. e) Some coastal towns like Kilwa were caught unaware. The Portuguese employed cruel methods of fighting like burning down towns and surprise attacks. f) The ships acted as stages against the hostile weapons of the coastal people. g) The coast had natural harbours and was not open to attacks. h) The constant attacks on the coastal towns by the Galla, Zimba and Turkish e.t.c had weakened their defence. i) The Portuguese were financially equipped and therefore supported their soldiers because they wanted to control the East African trade. j) The coastal states had very weak economies that could not sustain prolonged fights especially against the economically strong Portuguese. **Portuguese Administration at the coast** By 1510, the conquest of the East African coast was over and administration fell into the hands of the Portuguese. For easy administration, the coast was divided into two zones; a. The area North of Cape Delgado was ruled by the Captain at Malindi. b. The area South of Cape Delgado was ruled by Captain at Mozambique. Both captains were answerable to the Portuguese viceroy at Goa on Indian coast at the General headquarters. Cape Delgado was made the midpoint of the East Africa possession. Sofala was made the regional headquarters but still under the charge of the captain who took his orders from the viceroy at Goa. Later, the Captain in the North was stationed at Mombasa after the construction of Fort Jesus in 1593 because they were rebellious. Other forts and garrisons were established at Sofala and Kilwa. The Portuguese captains were responsible for the collections of tributes from coastal rulers. They imposed the customs dues on all imports and exports. They were also responsible for the suppression of rebellions on the coast. The Portuguese had problems with administration because they could not provide enough troops to all garrisons their strongholds.The Portuguese were more interested in gold trade in Sofala. Unfortunately, they failed to develop this trade because of the following; ~ There were wars in the mining areas between the Portuguese and Coastal people. ~ As a result the Portuguese were so cruel that any sign of disobedience was punished with maximum brutality to serve as a warning to others who might choose to rebel. This partly explains the unpopularity of the Portuguese on the coast. The Portuguese also applied the policy of divide and rule by setting one town against the other. For example Malindi against Mombasa.The relationship with the subjects was not good. They lived in isolation of each other by race and religion. The Portuguese established their own settlements, built their own churches and had their own priest. This could be the reason why their religion was rejected and hatred increased.In addition, the few Portuguese officials were corrupt, plundered and ordered destruction on the coastal town. All this earned them hatred and opposition from the people and it was not a surprise that they were nicknamed \"AFRITI\" meaning Devil.The Portuguese did not mix freely with Africans because they considered themselves to be a special race.During the Portuguese reign, the glory of the coastal states was no more. The high standards of living the coastal people had enjoyed were no more. The trade that had made them rich was declining. Many buildings were in ruins and there was widespread poverty and misery. **Reasons that led to the decline of the Portuguese at the East African Coast** **(Problems/challenges they faced)** a) Portugal was a small country that could not provide enough administrators and officials for such a large coastline that extended from Sofala in the south to Mogadishu in the north.The territory was too big and long for effective control and administration. b) It had few soldiers and could not keep fortified garrison along the coast. c) Authority was left in hands of incompetent and corrupt officials who were after enriching themselves. d) The Africans hated the Portuguese due to differences in religion, that is to say, Muslims against Christians (Portuguese). e) The Portuguese were cruel, harsh and brutal, they always punished the coastal people whenever they attempted to rebel and made them to be hated. f) The Portuguese also used divide and rule policy for example, they allied with Malindi against Mombasa. g) There was decline of trade due high taxes on imports and other restrictions hence smuggling of goods, which affected the Portuguese economy. Due to decline in trade, the people became poor and dissatisfied and they continuously rebelled. h) The Portuguese failed to support their own allies at the coast, some even betrayed them. i) Portugal had been forced into a union with Spain between15801640 which weakened her control of the trading colonies as she was no longer interested in the overseas empire. j) Portugal was challenged by other European powers, which began competing with the Portuguese in the Indian Ocean Trade e.g. Dutch, English, French, Turks and others. k) The coastal people found useful allies against the Portuguese due to their bad rule e.g. Turks, Oman, and Arabs l) They were faced with constant rebellions along the coast. This greatly disrupted life at the coast e.g. Pate, Mombasa m) Tropical diseases which claimed their life like smallpox, malaria making it difficult for them to administer the coast effectively. n) The Portuguese were greatly weakened by a group of cannibals the Zimba, who attacked the East African coast. o) The unhealthy climate made the area unattractive for them to work for instance, some places where too humid and hot while others were too cold. p) The distance between Portugal and the East African coast was too far hence reinforcement delayed. q) There was a problem of communication barrier, the Portuguese refused to learn the African languages and these made their administration difficult. r) The income obtained from the gold trade was not enough to pay for administration i.e. soldiers and officials. s) The Capture of Fort Jesus their stronghold in 1698 by the Omani greatly contributed to their decline. **The collapse of Portuguese rule** ~ In 1585, a Turkish captain, Amir Ali Bey, arrived at the coast as an envoy of the sultan of turkey to free the coastal towns from the Portuguese. Rebellion then broke out between 1585 and 1588 between Ali Bey, the Portuguese, and the people of Mombasa and Zimba warriors. The towns of pate, Siyu and Pemba were attacked and forced to pay heavy fines while manda was completely destroyed ~ As a result of their ruthlessness, the coastal people became hostile to the Portuguese. ~ Mombasa for example resisted the humiliation they got from the Portuguese appointedsultan ~ The sultans heir Yusuf was treated as a servant who resented the people of Mombasa ~ On 15thaugust 1631, during the Christian feast of Assumption in Mombasa, Sultan Yusuf stabbed the captain with a knife, killing him instantly. This sparked off a rebellion where many Portuguese were killed. ~ Yusuf posed a threat to the Portuguese rule until his death in 1637. ~ The people of pate also revolted in 1666. However, their ruler was arrested and exiled to Goa where he was executed ~ In 1622, the Persians drove the Portuguese from Hormuz. In 1650, the Portuguese were expelled from their bases in Muscat by the Omani Arabs under sultan Saif ~ Britain, France and Holland also began to compete the Portuguese in trade. ~ The final blow to Portuguese rule was attack by the Omani Arabs and the seizure of fort Jesus. The coastal Arab towns had appealed to their brothers in Oman for assistance against the Portuguese brutality. ~ In 1652, an Oman fleet sailed to pate and Zanzib ar, overpowered and killed the Portuguese. ~ In 1696, Imam Saif Ibn Sultan of Oman sailed to Mombasa with a large fleet and army. The Portuguese took refuge in Fort Jesus as battle raged on (about 2500 Portuguese men, women and children) the Portuguese were unfortunate as they could not get supplies to sustain the war with 3000 plus Arab soldiers with full packing of the coastal people. ~ In 1697, the Omani forces got access to the Fort and found most Portuguese afflicted with disease. By December 1698, the Omanis penetrated the Fort only to find all except twelve Portuguese dead. This marked the end of Portuguese rule though they made a temporaryseizure of the fort in 1728 but were overpowered. ~ For the coastal people, it was however a mere change of guard from the Portuguese to the Arabs. **Results of Portuguese stay at the coast of East Africa** **Positive:** a) The Portuguese built Fort Jesus at the coast in Mombasa in1592/3 which became a fortress and later a tourist attraction for centuries. b) They enriched the Swahili language with an addition of 60 words e.g. emeza meaning table and pesa meaning money. c) They introduced new crops from South Africa of which many have become staple diet for many East Africans e.g. cassava, pawpaws, maize, oranges, sweet potatoes, guavas, pineapples and mangoes d) They made an improvement in ship building. During their stay on the coast, many architects came in from India and Europe. e) There was establishment of closer trading links between the coast and India. f) They introduced new farming methods for example they encouraged the use of cow dung as manure. g) They led to the coming of more European and Asian traders and craftsmen especially those who helped in the building of Fort Jesus. h) They broke the Muslim- Arab monopoly of the Indian Ocean Trade. **Negative:** a) Trade declined due to the constant wars and rebellions and heavy taxes imposed. b) There was decline of the coastal towns because many were burnt down and left in ruins for example Kilwa and Mombasa. c) There was widespread poverty and misery among the coastal people due to decline in trade. d) There was heavy loss of lives during the attacks. There was depopulation due to the many wars in the areas e) There was destruction of property like buildings and crops, which led to famine and starvation. f) The coastal people suffered oppression and brutality under harsh rule of the Portuguese. g) Their religion, Christianity, made no impact at the coast because they lived far from their subjects and stagnation of the Islamic faith because discouraged preaching. h) Smuggling developed because the Portuguese had failed to establish proper trading links with the Interior. i) Some towns were prevented from trading with their initial partners which led to their decay e.g. Gedi j) They led to the European interest at the coast hence leading to the colonization in the 19th Century. **THE ESTABLISHMENT AND IMPACT OF OMANI RULE AT THE EAST** **AFRICAN COAST** The Omani Arabs (Imams of Omani) replaced the Portuguese as the rulers of the East African coast after the capture of fort Jesus in 1698.The new rulers initially administered the region through some Arab families; ~ The Mazrui (Mazaria) family which ruled Mombasa ~ The Nabahan Family which ruled Lamu. The civil wars back home made it hard for the Omani Arabs to control the coast immediately. There were also threats of Persian invasion. Constant rebellion from coastal towns against Omani governors posed a serious challenge to Omani rule. Pate for example refused to pay tax and even murdered the imams messengers. Towns they were loyal to Oman were attacked.The Mazrui established themselves as independent rulers of Mombasa and ordered towns like pate, Pemba and Malindi to pay allegiance to them. Their greatest allies were the Mijikenda who promised them support in case of Omani attack.The struggle between the Mazrui and the Imams of Oman (1741-1840) The coastal towns led by Mombasa resisted Omans conquest due to the following reasons. a) The Omani wanted the revenue from the taxes levied on trade. b) The towns also wished to maintain their independence as they were during the Portuguese rule. c) The towns were also encouraged by the prevailing weaknesses in Oman due to civil wars and the Persian threat. d) The harsh and ruthless rule and manner in which the Oman rulers collected taxes. e) Mombasa had fought against the Portuguese and did not wish to be under control of another foreign power. **The struggle** The appointment of Mohammed Ibn Azthman al Mazrui as the new governor of Mombasa coincided with the death of the Oman Imam Saif Ibn- Sultan of the Yorubi and his replacement with Ahmed Bin Said al-Busaidi.The new Mombasa governor refused to recognize the new imam and declared the independence of Mombasa from Oman. The sultan had him murdered and fort Jesus seized. A year later, the brother of the murdered governor recaptured the town and the fort. This became the century long struggle between the al-busaidi and al-Mazrui families.Taking advantage of the problems in Oman, Mombasa expanded her power and control over the coastal towns (she took over pate in 1807 and attacked Lamu in 1810). Lamu appealed to Oman for assistance. **Seyyid Said and the struggle** Further political changes happened in Oman. Seyyid said rose to power as the imam (Seyyid) of Oman. His father, the ruler of Oman had died in a sea battle in 1804 when he was only 13 years. His cousin Badr Ibn saif took over. In 1806, Said stabbed Badr to death fearing domination. With the assistance of the British he had entrenched his position as the Seyyid of Oman at the age of 15 years. The British even promised him support in claiming the east African coast.He then sent a governor to build a fortress in Mombasa and to order all towns to recognize the power of Oman. Mombasas new governor Abdullah Ibn Ahmed defied the order and even continued to attack Brava. By 1817, Seyyid said had succeeded in freeing Pate from Mazrui rule. In 1822, with the help of Zanzibar, an Oman ally, he liberated Pemba and Brava from Mombasa. In 1823, he gained control of the Bajun Islands. He ordered that no town should trade with Mombasa.In 1824, the sultan of Mombasa offered Mombasa to become a British protectorate to protect him from the Oman rule. The new powerful position of Mombasa was however short-lived upto 1826 due to the terms of the Moresby anti-slavery treaty between Seyyid said and the British.The animosity between Mombasa and Oman continued. In 1837, there was a dispute in Mombasa over the succession to the vacant office of the Liwali. This became an opportune chance for Seyyid said to lure the members of the Mazrui family into fort Jesus where he killed them. **Seyyid Said; Sultan of Zanzibar 91840-1856)** After that Seyyid said consolidated his power and control over the coast as well as the interior of east Africa. He then transferred his capital from Muscat to Oman. The transfer of the capital to Zanzibar from Muscat was due to the following reasons: a) Seyyid said desired to effectively control the coastal towns through the centrally located Zanzibar. b) Zanzibar had a pleasant climate compared to Muscat which was hot and dry. It also had fresh water, adequate rainfall and fertile soils that favoured clove growing. c) Zanzibar was easily defensible as an island. It was easy to sea the enemy from far and launch an attack from the island. d) The good deep harbours of Zanzibar I which ships could anchor were attractive. Zanzibars central position also favoured development of long distance trade. e) The town had a long history of loyalty to Oman throughout the Mazrui- busaidi struggles. Seyyid said appointed Liwalis to rule important towns. They were give the responsibility of collecting custom dues levied at each port. The Arabs in the local towns were allowed to rule themselves. Seyyid said was keener on the commercial empire than p olitical leadership. He stated I am nothing but just a merchant. Seyyid said developed an economic programme based on agriculture and international trade. **The development of plantation Agriculture** Seyyid sad encouraged settlers from Oman and Zanzibar to take advantage of the fertile sols and good climate at the coast to settle in Mombasa. Malindi, Lamu and Pemba venture into agriculture.Plantation agriculture largely depended on slave labour.The people of Mombasa extended plantation agriculture into the mainland, acquiring land from the Mijikenda in exchange for gifts. They planted rice, maize, millet, beans, sesame and sorghum. Along the island, large plantations of coconut mango trees, cashew nuts and citrus fruits were developed. Grain plantations were developed around Malindi and Takaungu whose land was largely unoccupied and the orma were no longer a threat. By 1870, about 1400 to 1500 slaves worked on plantation farms in Malindi which had become the granary of Africa producing all kinds of grains, mangoes, coconut, mangoes and oranges.Seyyid said also established a clove plantation in Zanzibar. He also encouraged people to grow coconut trees by putting in place a policy that for eve coconut tree cut, three were to be planted. Plantation agriculture intensified slave trade. **The Slave Trade in East Africa** Slave trade: The buying and selling of human beings Slavery: The state of being enslaved: Its a system where by some people are owned by others and are forced to work for others without being paid for the work they have done. It involves capturing, transporting of human beings who become the property of the buyer. The slave trade was one of the worst crimes against humanity. The trade was started by Arabs who wanted labour for domestic use and for their plantations. However, they were later joined by Europeans.. **Reasons for the rise of slave trade** ~ During the second half of the 18th century, France opened up larger sugar plantations on the islands of Reunion, Mauritius and in the Indian Ocean. African slaves were thus recruited from East Africa to go and work in those plantations. ~ Africans were considered physically fit to work in harsh climatic conditions compared to the native red Indians and Europeans. This greatly increased the demand for the indigenous people (slaves). ~ The increased demand for sugar and cotton in Europe led to their increase in price and therefore more labour (slaves) was needed in the British colonies of West Indies and America. ~ Strong desire for European goods by African chiefs like Mirambo and Nyungu ya Mawe forced them to acquire slaves in exchange for manufactured goods such as brass, metal ware, cotton cloth, beads, spirits such as whisky, guns and gun powder. ~ The existence and recognition of slavery in East Africa societies. Domestic and child slavery already existed therefore Africans were willing to exchange slaves for European goods. ~ The huge profits enjoyed by middlemen like Arab Swahili traders encouraged the traders to get deeply involved in the trade. ~ The suitable winds and currents (monsoon winds) which eased transportation for slave traders greatly contributed to the rise of slave trade. ~ The Legalization of slave trade in 1802 by Napoleon 1 of France increased the demand for slaves in all French Colonies. ~ The increased number of criminals, war captives, destitute forced African chiefs to sell them off as slaves. ~ The Oman Arabs contributed to the rise in the demand for slaves. This is because they acted as middlemen between the African Swahili people, the Portuguese and French traders. They therefore worked very hard to get slaves in order to obtain revenue from them. ~ The invention of Spanish mines in West indices increased slave demands to work in the mines. ~ The exodus of slaves from East Africa to Northeast Africa, Arabia and Persia contributed to the increase in the demand for slaves. It led to an enormous number of slaves obtained from East Africa being transported to other countries. ~ The movement of Seyyid Saids capital to Zanzibar led to an increase in slave trade. This is because when Seyyid said settled in Zanzibar in 1840, he embarked on strong plans to open up slave trade routes to the interior of East Africa. This boosted slave trade, whereby the number of slaves being sold at the slave market in Zanzibar annually by that time, reached between 40000 and 45000 thousand slaves. ~ The outbreak of diseases like Nagana led to an increase in slave trade. This is because the beasts of burden (i.e. camels, donkeys, etc) could not be taken on many of the caravan routes. It therefore necessitated people themselves to be involved in the transportation of the trade goods and ivory. Such people included porters who were regarded as slaves, or free Africans who could sell their services in return for cloth and other trade goods. ~ Development of long distance trade that needed slaves to transport goods from the interior of East Africa. ~ Plantation farming increased in some areas, especially the clove plantations were slaves worked. **Organization of slave trade in E. Africa** The middlemen involved were;
Arab Swahili traders African chiefs.
**Ways of obtaining slaves**
Selling of domestic slaves in exchange for goods like beads, guns, glass etc Selling of criminals, debtors and social misfits in society by the local chiefs to the
Arab slave traders.
Prisoners of war could be sold off. Porters were sometimes kidnapped, transported and sold off to the Arab traders. Raiding villages, this would begin at night with gun shoots and people would scatter
consequently leading to their capture.
Through inter tribal wars many Africans become destitutes and these would be
captured by the slave traders.
Tax offenders were sold off by the African chiefs. They were also captured through ambushes during hunting, travelling and gardening. Slaves would be acquired from the main slave trade market in Zanzibar. Other Africans are also said to have gone voluntarily in anticipation of great wonders
and benefits from the Arab Swahili traders. Slave journey: - difficult one. They moved long distances on foot.
Slaves journey was a
Chained, whipped and sometimes killed on the way. Had little food and water and experienced extreme suffering. This is illustrated by a Quotation from Dr. David Livingstones Last Journal. London 1878:We passed a woman tied by the neck to a tree and dead we saw others tied up in a similar manner, and one lying in the path shot or stabbed for she was in a pool of blood. The explanation we got invariably was that the Arab who owned these victims was enraged at losing the money by the slaves becoming unable to march. ~ The main slave market where slaves were auctioned was at Zanzibar. ~ The journey across the India Ocean was horrible. ~ Crowded in ships with hardly any space to breath. Ships carried anything from 250 to 600 slaves. They were very overcrowded and packed like spoons with no room even to turn. ~ Whenever they saw anti-slave trade people, slaves would be thrown in the ocean ~ As a result many died in the process. **Effects/Impact of slave trade on people of E. Africa** **Positive effects** a) New foods were introduced through trade routes like maize, pawpaws, rice, groundnuts both at the coast and in the interior. b) Plantation farming increased in some areas, especially the clove plantations were slaves worked. c) The interior was opened to the outside world this later encouraged the coming of European missionaries. Many European Christian missionaries came to East Africa to preach against slave trade and to campaign for its abolition. d) The trade routes became permanent routes and inland roads which led to growth of communication networks. e) Swahili was introduced in land and is now being widely spoken in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda and Eastern Congo. f) Islam as a religion was introduced by Arabs and it spread, especially in Yao land and in Buganda land. g) A new race called Swahili was formed through intermarriages between Arabs and some Africans. h) There was growth of Arab towns such as Tabora and Ujiji inland. i) There was emergence of dynamic leaders such as Mirambo and Nyungu ya Mawe in the latter half of the nineteenth century. j) Slave trade strengthened the large and powerful states, which could easily get access to guns at the expense of small ones. k) Slave trade led to a situation whereby power became centralized and no longer with the small, local authority (segimentary societies) mainly to enable African chiefs directly control slave trade. l) Slave trade encouraged large-scale trade whereby contact was established between the trade masters and indigenous/local population. m) Africans were dispersed to other parts of the world e.g Arabia, America and West Indies. In Africa, Sierra-Leone and Liberia were founded to accommodate former slaves from Europe and America. **Negative effects** a) African population was reduced; people who would have been great leaders and empire builders were killed. It is estimated that over 15 to 30 million people were sold in to slavery while other millions died in the process being transported. b) Slave trade brought misery, suffering and lowered the quality of people in East Africa this is because they were reduced to commodities which could be bought and sold on land. c) Villages and families were destroyed and broken up by slave raiders and never to be reunited this later resulted in to loss of identity. d) Diseases broke out among the overcrowded slaves for example the Spaniards introduced Syphilis and soon it spread to other traders. e) Slave trade led to displacement of people and many became homeless and destitute many and stayed in Europe with no identity. f) Economic activities such as farming were disrupted. This is because the young and able craftsmen, traders and farmers were carried off, causing economic stagnation as the economic workforce depleted. g) Progress slowed down, which resulted in famine, poverty and destitution and helplessness. h) There was a decline in production of traditional goods such as coffee, beans, bark cloth and iron which greatly hindered the cash economy. i) There was a decline in African industries which also faced a lot of competition from imported manufactured goods for example the Bark cloth and iron working industries. j) Guns were introduced into the interior which caused a lot of insecurity and increased incidences of wars for territorial expansion. k) Clans and tribal units, languages were broken and inter-tribal peace was disturbed for example Swahili language replaced the traditional languages in the interior. **Abolition of slave trade** **Reasons why it was difficult to stop slave trade** ~ Slavery existed before in Africa societies that is to say, domestic slavery and internal slave trade, which provided a favourable situation for continuation of the lucrative slave trade. ~ The Abolition movement which had begun in Britain and her overseas territory first took effect in West Africa. The decline in West African trade encouraged the expansion of trade in East Africa especially with America and West Indies. ~ Slave trade was difficult to stop because of division of African tribes against each other .This meant that African tribes would find it difficult to unite together and resist the slave traders, who raided their societies using organized bands of men. ~ Disregard of human life, many African rulers tended to put less value for the lives of their subjects whom they ruled for example quite often, a ruler of a tribe would easily order his warriors to attack the villages of his subjects and seize their property, kill some of them. ~ Active participation and willing cooperation of African chiefs and coastal traders who were making a lot of profits made the slave trade last for so long. ~ Many European countries depended on the products of slave labour in West Indies and America for example, British industries depended on raw sugar, raw cotton and unprocessed minerals from America which she was not willing to lose. ~ European slave merchants and Africans involved in the trade were blinded by the huge profits made from the trade. ~ There was smuggling of slaves outside the forbidden areas. Slave traders would pretend to sail northwards when sighted by British patrol ships but would change course after British navy ships had disappeared. ~ Other European countries refused to co-operate with Britain to end slave trade because they had not yet become industrialized, and therefore they still benefited from it for example Portugal and Spain. ~ The only economic alternative of slave trade was Agriculture which was not reliable compared to the booming slave trade. ~ The anti slavery campaign was too expensive for Britain alone to compensate slave owners. ~ Stopping slave trade in the interior was difficult because Arabs were in control of large areas. ~ The East African coastline was long which delayed the anti-slavery group penetration in the interior. ~ Due to the tropical climate, most British personnel were affected by malaria which hindered the stopping of Slave trade. ~ Seyyid Said and Barghash were always unwilling to end slave trade at once due to fear of losing revenue and risk of rebellion by Arabs who found it profitable. ~ The anti-slavery group was small compared to the East African Coast. ~ European powers continued with slave trade, they shipped the slave cargos in to ships bearing American Flags. **Factors that led to the abolition of slave trade** It was the British government that began the abolition of the slave trade during the years,1822 - 1826 . This was because of the pressure by various groups based on different factors; a) Rise of humanitarians in Europe such as Christians and scholars condemned it on moral grounds. The missionaries wanted it to be stopped because they wanted good conditions for the spread of Christianity. The formation of the humanitarian movements in England aimed at stopping all kinds of cruelty including slave trade, flogging of soldiers and child labour. b) Industrialization in Britain was one of the main forces behind the abolition .E.g. Britain industrialists urged its abolition because they wanted Afr icans to be left in Africa so that Africa can be a source of raw materials for their industries, market for European manufactured goods and a place for new investment of surplus capital. c) Formation of Anti-slavery movement and the abolitionist movement in 1787. Its chairman was Granville Sharp and others like Thomas Clarkson, William Wilberforce who gathered facts and stories about the brutality of slave trade and slavery to arouse public opinion in Britain. d) Religious revival in Europe, Anglicans preached and condemned slave trade as being opposed to laws of God and humanity. Catholic popes also protested against the trade and prohibited it. In 1774, many religious leaders served as examples when they liberated their slaves in England. e) The French revolution of 1789 and the American revolution of 1776 emphasized liberty, equality and fraternity (brotherhood) of all human beings. As a result, people began to question whether anyone had a right to deprive fellow man of his liberty when he had done wrong. f) The British desire to protect their national interests, British planters wanted slave trade stopped to avoid competition with other European planters .This is because other planters were producing cheaper sugar, British sugar accumulated hence the need to stop over production. g) The rise of men with new ideas e.g. Prof. Adam Smith(challenged the economic arguments which were the basis of slave trade when he argued convincingly that hired labour is cheaper and more productive than slave labour, Rou sseau spread the idea of personal liberty and equality of all men. h) Slaves had become less profitable and yet had led to over population in Europe. i) Influential abolitionists like William Wilberforce ( a British member of parliament ) urged the British government to legislate against the slave trade in her colonies. j) The ship owners stopped transporting slaves from Africa and began transporting raw materials directly from Africa and America to Europe, which led to a decline in slave trade. **Steps in the abolition of slave trade** The movement to abolish slave trade started in Britain with the formation of Antislavery movement. The British government abolished the slave trade through anti slave laws (Legislation), treaties and use of force. The Anti slavery movement was led by Granville sharp, other members were Thomas Clarkson, William Wilberforce and others. ~ The first step was taken in 1772 when slavery was declared illegal and abolished in Britain. The humanitarians secured judgment against slavery from the British court. ~ In 1807, British parliament outlawed slave trade for British subjects. ~ 1817 British negotiated the reciprocal search treaties with Spain and Portugal. ~ Equipment treaties signed with Spain 1835 Portugal 1842 and America 1862. ~ In E. Africa in 1822 Moresby treaty was signed between Captain Moresby and Sultan Seyyid Said it forbade the shipping of slaves outside the sultans territories. British ships were authorized to stop and search suspected Arab slave-carrying dhows. ~ In 1845, Hamerton treaty was signed between Colonel Hamerton and Sultan Seyyid Said. It forbade the shipping of slaves outside the Sultans East African possessions, i.e., beyond Brava to the north. ~ In 1871 the British set up a parliamentary commission of inquiry to investigate and report on slave trade in E. Africa. ~ In 1872 Sir Bartle Frere persuaded Sultan Barghash to stop slave trade but not much was achieved. On 5th March 1873, the Sultan passed a decree prohibiting the export of slaves from main land and closing of slave market at Zanzibar. Zanzibar slave market was to be closed within 24 hours. ~ 1876 the Sultan decreed that no slaves were to be transported overland. ~ 1897 decree left slaves to claim their freedom themselves ~ 1907, slavery was abolished entirely in Zanzibar and Pemba. ~ In 1927, slavery ended in Tanganyika when Britain took over from Germany after the 2nd world war. **Effects of abolition of slave trade** a) The suppression of slave trade led to loss of independence that is to say, it confirmed among the Arabs and Swahilis that the Sultan had lost independence over the East African coast, and that he was now a British puppet . b) The suppression of slave trade led to development and growth of legitimate trade which provided equally profitable business to both Europeans and African traders. Many ship owners diverted their ships from transporting slaves to transporting raw cotton and raw sugar from Brazil and America. c) It accelerated the coming of European missionaries to East Af rica who emphasized peace and obedience thus the later European colonization of East Africa. d) Disintegration of the sultan Empire. This is because it loosened the economic and political control which the sultan had over the East African nations .His empire in E.A. therefore began to crumble .This gave opportunity to other ambitious leaders like Tippu- Tip to create an independent state in Manyema ,where he began selling his ivory and slaves to the Belgians in Zaire. e) The abolition of slave trade was a catalyst to the partition of East Africa where by Britain took over Kenya, Zanzibar and Uganda and Germany took over Tanganyika. f) Slave trade markets were also closed for example Zanzibar in 1873 following the frre treaty signed between Sultan Barghash and Bantle Frere. g) Islam became unpopular as many converted to Christianity. h) African societies regained their respect and strength as they were no longer sold off as commodities. **Development and organization of long distance trade** Local trade refers to the exchange of goods among members of a community. Regional trade involves exchange of goods between a community and her neigbouring communities.Long distance trade was the exchange of trade goods between communities over long distance, for example between the east African interior and the east African coast. **The organization of long distance trade** ~ The communities that participated in the long distance trade were the Akamba, Swahili, Arabs, Yao, nyamwezi, Mijikenda and Baganda. ~ The trade developed because of the demand for ivory in Europe and the United States of America, slaves for plantation agriculture at the coast and in Mauritius and reunion sugar plantations ~ Ivory and slaves from the interior were exchanged for cloth. Utensils, ironware, zinc and beads at the coast.The system of trade were barter. ~ The middlemen included the Mijikenda and the Akamba who obtained slaves and ivory from the interior. The Akamba adopted the long distance trade after the outbreak of famine in 1836 and due to the central location of their country. ~ The Akamba organized caravans that left for the coast on weekly basis to sell ivory, gum copra, honey, bees wax, rhinoceros horns and skins. They had prosperous traders like chief Kivoi who is remembered for organizing the trade. ~ They set up markets and routes in the interior. ~ The source of slaves and ivory extended as far as Mt. Kenya region, Baringo and the shores of Lake Victoria. ~ The trade led to the development of Mombasa and Lamu as important market points. ~ The Waswahili and Mijikenda traders were also used in the trading caravans to the interior. ~ By 1860s, Arabs and Swahili traders started penetrating to the interior of Kenya as far as Uganda. ~ In Kenya, the main trading centres were taveta, Mbooni hills, elureko in Wanga and Miazini near Ngong and along Lake Baringo. ~ By 1870, the Akamba dominance in the trade declined as a result of competition from the Arab and Waswahili traders who began penetrating into the interior to get goods from the source. ~ Movement between the interior and the coast was carried out in caravans along well defined routes. ~ The trade routes became insecure due to the Oromo and Maasai raids. ~ The abolition of slave trade also affected the long distance trade. ~ In Tanganyika, the Yao, nyamwezi, Arabs and Waswahili were great traders. The Yaoexchanged tobacco, hoes, and animal skins at Kilwa with imported goods like cloth and beads. They were also the principal suppliers of ivory and slaves to Kilwa. The Yao were the most active long distance traders in east Africa. ~ The Arabs and Waswahili traders organized caravans into the interior and set up markets and trade routes. They were given security by Seyyid said who signed treaties with Chief Fundikira of the Nyamwezi to allow the Arab traders to pass through his territory. ~ They established interior Arab settlements at Tabora which became the centre of Arab culture. ~ The nyamwezi organized trading expeditions under their chiefs upto the coast with ivory, copper, slaves, wax hoes, salt and copra. They returned with cloths, beads and mirrors. They established trade routes such as the route from Ujiji via Tabora to Bagamoyo. They travelled to Katanga in DRC for iron, salt and copper. By 1850 nyamwezi merchants such as Msiri , and leaders like Nyungu ya Mawe and Mirambo played a key role in the trade development. ~ When the Arab and Waswahili traders arrived in Buganda, the kabaka welcomed them because he needed their goods such as beads, cloths, guns etc. He also wanted assistance in aiding his neighbours. E.g the invasion of Busoga in 1848 was assisted by the Arab traders. From the raids to Bunyoro, Toro, and ankole and Buvuma and Ukerewe islands, the Baganda acquired cattle, ivory, slaves and grains which the sold to the Arabs. ~ The Khartoumers also practiced long distance trade. They raided the northern part of Uganda for ivory and slaves. ~ Arab and Waswahili traders ventured into the Bunyoro kingdom by 1877 for ivory. ~ There were three main trade routes that linked east African coast and the interior; a) From Mombasa through the Mijikenda area onto Taita-taveta then branching into two. One leading to Kilimanjaro onto the Lake Victoria region the diversion was to evade the hostile Maasai. . The other branch proceeded northwards from taveta across Galan River into Ukambani then to mt Kenya region and further west. Taveta became an important point on these routes. b) The route from Kilwa to Yao then branching southwards to Cewa in Zimbabwe. c) From Bagamoyo to Tabora where it branched northwards to Buganda and another branch to Ujiji then to Zaire. **MAP OF EAST AFRICA SHOWING TRADE ROUTES** **Effects of the Long distance trade on the people of East Africa** a) The trade led to Development of towns e.g. Mombasa, Lamu, Kilwa, Pemba and Zanzibar. b) It increased the volume of local and regional trade as varieties of new goods were introduced. c) There was the Emergence of a class of wealthy Africans along the coast and the interior as Arab, African and Waswahili merchants acquired a lot of wealth. E.g. Kivoi of Ukambani, Ngonyo of Mijikenda, Tippu tip, Msiri, Nyungu ya mawe of nyamwezi, Mwakikonga of the Digo etc. d) There was Introduction of foreign goods such as beads, cloth and plates to the peoples of East Africa. e) The trade led to Introduction of new crops to the coast e.g. bananas, rice sugarcane and mangoes. f) Arab and Waswahili traders introduced Islam to the East African Coast. They also introduced Islamic culture along the coast. g) Development of plantation agriculture in Malindi and Mombasa due increased slave trade. h) It led to the development of trade routes and market centres in the region. Such routes later became important highways during the colonial rule and upto today. i) Traders gave reports about the coast, its strategic and commercial stability leading to the colonization of East Africa. j) It led to the development of a money economy that replaced barter trade k) The trade facilitated the colonization of east Africa as the interior was exposed to the outside world. **Development and organization of international trade** The east African coast also participated in international trade during the 19 Th century with traders from different countries such as USA, Britain and France. **Factors that facilitated the development of international trade** a) The existing earlier trade links between east Africa and the Far East before this period. b) The existence of regional trade which became a means through which goods such as ivory were acquired from the interior to be used in the international trade. c) The role played by Seyyid said through encouraging the foreign traders to come to the coast. He even signed treaties with them. He also gave letters of introduction to the Arab caravans leading into the interior. d) The improvement of the monetary system by Seyyid said facilitated the trade. He introduced the small copper coins from India to supplement the silver currency (Maria Theresa dollars and the Spanish Crown). He also employed the services of the Indian Banyans or Baluchis (Money Lenders) who organized credit facilities for the caravans going into the interior. e) There was a high demand for goods from the coast and the international community. Trade goods on demand were also readily available. E.g Gold ivory slaves cloths, beads, and guns. f) The existence of deep natural harbours and the attractive beaches lured many foreigners to the region. g) The existence of a class of wealthy merchants facilitated the trade. h) The establishment of specific trade routes and markets such as Zanzibar, Kilwa and Mombasa facilitated the movement and exchange of goods. i) The sultans identification of Britain as the sole trading agents in the interior overcame any rivalries which could have led to competition and decline of regional trade which would have in turn affected the international trade. j) The development of a sound trading policy by Seyyid said to ensure international market for his grains, coconuts and ivory. He developed trade links with Europe and America by signing treaties with USA in 1833 that opened a consulate in Zanzibar in 1837. He signed a similar treaty with Britain in 1839 that opened a consulate in Zanzibar in 1941. With France in 1844 and Germany in 1871.The arrival of IBEACo with William McKinnon further strengthened international trade links and increased the volume trade. **Consequences of international trade** a) Through the trade, the east African coast was exposed to the outside world. b) Some of the European traders later spread their faith thus leading o the spread of Christianity in east Africa. c) The international trade fostered good relations between the east African coast and European nations and USA. d) The contacts between the coast and European powers later contributed to the colonization o east Africa by Britain and Germany. e) New trade goods and crops were introduced to the coast. f) Participants in the trade grew richer and exhibited high standards of living. g) The slave trade led to sufferings, killings and increased warfare. **CHRISTIAN MISSIONARIES IN EAST AFRICA** **Introduction** Christian missions were organized efforts to spread the Christian faith for the purpose of extending religious teaching at home or abroad. Their coming of Christian missionaries to East Africa and Africa in general was based on a number of motives which were humanitarian, economic, political and social in nature. The Portuguese were the first to introduce Christianity to the east African coast in the 15th c.This attempt however had little success. By the 19th century, a number of missionary groups worked in East Africa and these included; 1. The Church Missionary Society 2. The Holy Ghost Fathers 3. The University Missionary Society to Central Africa 4. The White Fathers 5. The Methodist Fathers 6. The Mill Hill Fathers 7. The London Missionary Society Reasons for the coming of Christian missionaries in East Africa a) The missionaries had the ambition to spread Christianity to the people of East Africa. This would be through preaching and teaching the holy gospel so that many would get converted to Christianity. b) They wanted to fight against slave trade in East Africa. Earlier travelers like John Speke and James Grant, H.M. Stanley, Dr. David Livingstone and others had reported about the evils of slave trade in East Africa. c) They wanted to check on the spread of Islam in East Africa from the coast with intentions of converting many to Christianity. d) Some missionaries came because they had been invited by certain African chiefs, For example, Mutesa I of Buganda wrote a letter through H.M Stanley inviting missionaries to Buganda. e) They came to establish legitimate trade in East Africa. They, for instance wanted to trade in items like glass, cloths, etc. as Dr. Livingstone told Cambridge University students, I go back to Africa to make an open pass for commerce and Christianity.. Similarly, his speech in 1857 emphasized the unity between Christianity and Commerce. f) The missionaries also loved to adventure and explore the interior of East Africa. For example Dr. John Ludwig Kraft of CMS is said to have been the first European to see Mt. Kenya while Johann Redman was the first to see Mt. Kilimanjaro. g) They had a mission to clear the way for the colonization of East Africa. The missionaries were tasked by their home governments to preach ideas of love, respect, brotherhood, forgiveness, tolerance and non violence so that when the colonialists come, they would meet less resistance from the East Africans. h) Its also argued that missionaries wanted to civilize East Africans. They argued that they came to stop some of the barbaric acts and customs e.g. Female Genital Mutilation among the Kikuyu in Kenya, human sacrifices and the practice of killing twins. i) The information they gave about important places like the source of the Nile, fertile soils, river falls and the climate all attracted the missionaries into East Africa. Early contacts by travelers like Stanley, Speke and Grant, among others encouraged missionaries to come. j) The expulsion of some of the missionaries from other parts of Africa led them into East Africa. For example Johann Ludwig Kraft and Johann Redman are said to have been expelled from Ethiopia around 1842 before they chose to relocate to East Africa. **Missionary Activities in East Africa** The pioneer missionaries in East Africa were the Church Missionary Society led by the Germans John Krapt and Johann Rebmann who arrived in East Africa around 1844 and 1846 respectively. Krapt arrived and established a mission station at Rabai. When they realized they were not making any great impact at the coast, the two moved into the interior visiting the Akamba and Taita. The CMS set up stations in Taita and taveta.They were the first Europeans to see Mount Kilimanjaro in 1847. Krapt discovered the source of River Tana and was the first European to see Mount Kenya in 1849. In 1949, Jacob Erhardt, a Germany explorer joined them and became the first European to draw a crude map of east Africa fro then stories he heard from traders. In 1862, the united Methodist Church led by Thomas Wakefield arrived from Britain and settled at the coast. They established a station at Rabai. They also set up mission stations at Jomvu and Lamu. They were able to convert some people among the Mijikenda. In 1863, the University Mission Society to Central Africa moved to Zanzibar where a mission was started from Re-union and later to Bagamoyo. Cardinal Lavigeries formation of the White Fathers Mission in Algeria (1863) extended to other parts of Africa. In 1875, Freetown Mission a centre for freed slaves was established. By 1889, about 1400 slaves had settled in Freetown. In 1877, the Church Missionary Society mission arrived in Buganda while the white fathers arrived in 1879. In 1891, the Presbyterian Church of Scotland arrived in Kenya and began their work at Kibwezi in Machakos. In 1898, the Church of Scotland Mission arrived at Kikuyu and set up a mission station at Thogoto. Members of the African Inland Church from the United States of America established their station at Nzaui in Machakos. They then spread to Kijabe, Nandi, Kabarnet and Nyakach in Nyanza. The catholic missionary societies, like the Holy Ghost Fathers and the Consolata Fathers arrived in Zanzibar but later moved to Mombasa in 1890 . They advanced interior and founded stations among the Akamba and among the Agikuyu towards the end of the Century. The Holy Ghost fathers established a station at St Austins near Nairobi in 1899 while the Consolata fathers from Italy opened a station in Nyeri in 1907The Mill Hill Fathers reached Kenya from Uganda.In 1902, the Friends Missions arrived at Kaimosi. By 1914 there were many missionary societies working in western Kenya. For example, the Seventh Day Adventists, the Quakers (Friends Mission) and the Church of God Mission. The roles of these missionaries varied enormously depending on the colonial context and their relations with the colonial authorities. **Missionaries in Tanganyika** The missionaries here enjoyed the support of the sultan of Zanzibar, Seyyid Said. At Zanzibar, the Roman Catholic missionaries began to follow the lead of CMS in taking interest in East Africa. The CMS began a freed slave centre at Freetown in 1875 where the freed slaves were taught Christianity and formal education. The slave villages later became Christian outposts. The CMS finally reached Uganda in 1879 where they were later joined by the White Fathers from Tabora and Ujiji.In 1863, a group of missionaries from the Holy Ghost Fathers arrived from Reunion where they had been working among freed slaves and began their work in Zanzibar. They also began a freed slave settlement at Bagamoyo. By 1885, they had set up five villages that were to act as Christian outposts Missionary work in Tanganyika was motivated by the reports given by Dr, David Livingstone on the horrors of slave trade.In 1863, the University Mission Society to Central Africa under Bishop Tozer moved to Zanzibar where a mission was started from Re-union and later to Bagamoyo. Dr.Livingstone of UMCA also worked I Ujiji in 1871 where he met with Henry Morton Stanley, a journalist who had been sent to look for him. In 1875, the London Missionary Society set up a mission post around Lake Tanganyika. **Missionaries in Uganda** The pioneer missionaries were the members of the CMS based in Tabora, Tanganyika. The first protestant missionaries were sent from England in 1876 after a letter that was sent by Henry Morton Stanley confirming Kabaka Mutesa Is invitation. They came in through Tabora and Usukuma and reached Rubaga, mutesas capital in 1877 where they set up a church. In 1879, the Roman Catholic Missionaries and White Fathers followed also from Tabora and Kibanga.The Protestants and Catholics were supported by Kabaka Mwanga though he did not want them to work outside the capital and beyond the royal family. This arrangement did not favour Missionary work in Uganda.Soon there ensued rivalry between the Catholics and protestants. The kabaka had also embraced Muslims and African traditionalists to the level of generating the infamous religious and political conflicts that rocked the kingdom eventually leading to its colonization.Missionary work expanded upto lake Nyasa. For example the Scottish Mission of the Livingstone Mission and the church of Scotland Mission set upstatations around lake Nyasa in 1876. **Activities of Christian missionaries in East Africa** The following were the activities carried out by the Christian missionaries in East Africa. a) Missionaries carried out evangelization. They tried to convert and baptize many people into Christianity from their paganism and Islam. b) Christian missionaries carried out linguistic research and came up with new developments in language. Dr Kraft for example translated the Bible into Swahili and wrote a Swahili dictionary and grammar hence making it easy for people to understand the Bible more. c) The Christian missionaries built many churches in East Africa many of which are still in existence. They for example set up a church at Zanzibar, Rubaga and Rabai missionary station near Mombasa. This enhanced evangelization into the local population. d) They carried out exploration work into the discovery of various East African physical features. For example, Kraft was the first European to see Mt. Kenya in 1849 while Rebmann was the first to European see Kilimanjaro in 1848. e) Christian missionaries set up stations for free rehabilitation services for example in 1868 the Holy Ghost Fathers set up a home for the free slaves at Zanzibar. f) Christian missionaries participated in skill development in East Africa. They for example participated in modernizing Agriculture and carpentry by setting up agricultural institutionsand carpentry workshops for training. g) Christian missionaries were also influential in establishing educational institutions and training efficient class of African clergy (catechists) who were close and more understandable to the local communities. This helped and enhanced the propagation of faith. h) Christian missionaries were at times involved in political processes that were beyond spiritual jurisdiction. They for example participated in the overthrow of Kabaka Mwanga of Buganda. They also acted as front runners in the colonization process. **Reasons for the success of missionary work in East Africa** a) The missionaries faced no strong opposition from any religion. Islam was only greatly dominant at the coast. b) The evils of slave trade made East Africans welcome missionaries as liberators. Their campaign against slave trade won them much support from different tribes in East Africa. c) The support they got from some of the local chiefs and kings led to their success. For instance, the sultan of Zanzibar gave them immense support. Mutesa I of Buganda and Mirambo of Nyamwezi all gave them protection as well as rights to do their work in their territories. d) The earlier explores helped to map out potential areas of East Africa for smooth missionary work. For instance, H.M Stanley had identified Buganda as a hospitable community for the missionaries and they were later welcomed by the Kabaka of Buganda in 1877. e) The support missionaries got from their home governments led them to success. This was inform of finance and physical manpower for instance colonial governments gave protection to the missionaries whenever they were challenged by local chiefs or other threats. For instance Captain Lugard supported the Prot estants in the religious wars in Buganda. f) Some missionary groups sought for alliances with African chiefs. Such treaties of friendship made their work easy since the chiefs would call on their subjects to take on the missionary teachings. g) The missionaries efforts to translate the bible into several local languages helped them succeed for example Kraft translated the New Testament of the Bible into Swahili and wrote a Swahili dictionary and a Grammar book. h) The missionaries also received the support of African converts in spreading the Gospel. Converts could now teach in their mother tongue and therefore overcame the language barrier. i) The industrial revolution had provided such technology like the printing press which made printing of bibles and other academic work easy. j) Their efforts in life saving services like medical care (Quinine) won them great admiration among the people of East Africa that few were ready to oppose them. The discovery of quinine also facilitated their work as it cured tropical diseases. k) The missionaries practical skills enabled them to survive even when their supplies from home delayed. They for instance adopted agriculture as soon as they settled anywhere. This ensured steady supply of food. l) The building of the Kenya Uganda railway greatly encouraged missionary work in the interior. The missionaries could now travel between the coast and the interior. m) Political stability in East Africa favoured missionary work because missionaries could settle. n) The emergence of the African independent church movement boosted the spread of Christianity. African initiatives to Africanize Christianity encouraged its growth in East Africa.. o) The death of Dr. David Livingstone in 1873 and other earlier missionaries increased the determination by many groups to see missionary work succeed in Africa, and East Africa in particular. E.g. the London news paper wrote after his death, the work for Africa must hence forth begin in earnest where Livingstone left it off. p) Establishment of resettlement centers for freed slaves e.g. at Bagamoyo and Frere town near Mombasa where skills like carpentry, and agriculture were taught. Such communities thus looked at missionary work as a life- saving mission **Problems faced by missionaries in East Africa** Christian missionaries in East Africa were faced with various problems which clipped their activities at times. These include: a) They faced the problem of language barrier. This was because East Africa had a multiplicity of languages hence rendering communication between the missionaries and the local people very difficult. b) There was a problem of the influence of Islam. Arabs being the first group of people to arrive at the coast and interior had deep rooted Islam into the people thus making it difficult for the people to easily adopt Christianity. For example, by the time Sir Edward Frere arrived in East Africa (1873) Rebmann had only 6 converts. c) Existence of tropical diseases was yet another problem faced by the Christian missionaries. Tropical diseases like malaria, small pox, claimed many missionary lives thus making progress in their activities very difficult since they could be left very few in numbers. d) Another hardship was caused by geographical barriers. These included hilly areas, rivers, lakes and forests. These hindered their free movement to various places thus a threat to their activities. e) Divisions and quarrels between various missionary groups for example Catholics versus Protestants was a hindrance to their activities. This could create divisions and biases among the believers thus weakening their capacity to convert more converts. f) Poor transport was a hindrance to the missionary activities in East Africa. This was due to undeveloped roads at the time to help in the movement of missionaries from one place to another. g) Presence of hostile tribes in East Africa was also a problem that faced Christian missionaries. The Nandi and Maasai who believed that strangers were not supposed to pass via their land could attack and kill many missionaries thereby reducing their numbers compared to the increasing number of converts. h) The presence of wild animals was also a threat to the missionary activities in East Africa. Man enters in Tsavo National Park consumed and threatened many whites. This clipped their activities at times. i) The missionaries faced the problem of lack of supplies. They for example lacked enough money, accommodation and drugs. This was because they originated from very far (Europe) thus making it difficult for them to have full time and constant supplies. Such put their lives at risk and could sometimes lead to death. j) The Christian missionaries faced the problem of stiff contradiction and rivals between European missionaries and traditional Africans. Customs like polygamy, satanic worship, etc were deep rooted into African communities which proved a threat for the missionaries to successfully uproot them. k) The missionaries made their work difficult by involving in politics and judicial systems which were beyond spiritual jurisdiction. Local leaders could misinterpret them as political rivals and organize their masses for resistance against missionary activities. **Effects of missionaries in East Africa** (a) They spread Christianity and baptized many converts. Catechists were also trained who helped in the spread of Christianity for example, in Kenya by 1911 many people had been converted and many cathedrals and churches were built like the Kikuyu churches (Charismatic Arathi or spirit churches.) (b) African religious beliefs, culture and traditions were despised and demoralized for example the birth and murder of twins, human sacrifice. (c) They established hospitals and clinics which offered modern medicine plus research in tropical diseases like malaria, small pox, yellow fever and sleeping sickness which had claimed many lives. For example, the Mission Hospitals at Rabai, Thogoto, Kaimosi e.t.c. Dr Albert Cook built Mengo hospital. (d) They introduced the European system of management and styles of dress and architecture which have been adopted by many people in East Africa today. (e) They put to an end the inter-tribal or inter-village wars and established a stable and peaceful society under one faithful leader (centralization). (f) They studied African languages and translated the Bible into various languages. For example Kraft translated the New Testament of the Bible into Swahili, Bishop Edward Steere based inZanzibar learnt and studied Swahili and translated books from English to Swahili, published the New Testament and the entire Bible in 1891. (g) They established printing presses like Marianum press and published newspapers. (h) They opened up primary and secondary schools as well as training collages for teachers and trade schools for craftsmen e.g. Alliance High School, Kisubi Vocational School. In the technical schools, carpentry and brick laying skills were obtained. (i) A new class of elite emerged. Africans educated mainly in English and French emerged, these later served as doctors, lawyers, clerks, teachers, catechists, agriculturalists and priests who played a great role of spreading Christianity. For example, in 1890, Africans were ordained as priests of the University Mission to Central Africa in Tanganyika. (j) They paved way for the improvement of agriculture through establishing experimental farms and plantations where new crops, better methods of farming and equipment were introduced for example cotton was introduced by Kenneth Boroup in 1903 and Africans were taught how to use a plough and how to grow coffee. (k) Missionaries improved communication and transport which in turn led to the opening up of the hinterland of Africa. The building of strong boats and ships gave Europeans courage to travel far from home. (l) Missionaries destroyed local industries like craft industry e.g. blacksmiths, pottery work were all destroyed and replaced with European products e.g. manufactured items like cups, saucepans, etc. (m) They contributed to the rise of nationalism. This was made possible through education where the African elite emerged and started demanding for independence e.g. Tom Mboya, Obote, Nyerere, and Kenyatta. (n) They fought slave trade which was later abolished and equality and liberty for all was encouraged in East Africa. (o) Mission stations were developed in towns like Rabai missionary station near Mombasa. **Role of Christian missionaries in the colonization of East Africa** a) Missionaries signed treaties which were later used by colonialists to take over colonies e.g. Tucker, a British Missionary interpreted the 1900 Buganda Agreement to the regents of Kabaka Daudi Chwa II. This led to loss of political, economic and social powers to the British protectorate government. Sir Harry John stone who signed on behalf of the British government confessed that; b) Missionaries supplied information to the colonialists which they utilized to plan how to effectively impose their colonial rule on how to crash the African resistance. In the religious wars in Buganda, the British fought behind the Protestants. c) In fact there was a reciprocal relationship between missionaries and the colonialists that is why missionaries laid the ground work before the partitioners offered missionaries protection for the success of their evangelization mission. d) The Church missionary society managed to raise enough funds for Imperial British East African Company for its staying in Uganda for at least 2 or more years. The church missionary society and Captain Lugard viewed that the companys withdraw would live theBritish and the protestant party in a dangerous position versus Moslems. e) Missionaries enhanced the growth of tropical raw materials like coffee, cotton to satisfy the British industrialists urge but disguising everything in Christianity. Bishop K. Boroup for example introduced cotton in Uganda. f) They appealed to their home governments for protection in case of attack. It is in this light that Britain came to Uganda during the religious wars of 1884-1892 and later occupied Uganda. g) They created a collaborating class by luring it religiously and materially. This class helped colonialists to fight resistors despite the fact that they were all Africans. h) In their evangelization role, they brain washed Africans with biblical teachings as love your neighbor as you love yourself, blessed are the humble for the kingdom of God is theirs, etc. With these preachings they made potential resistance important. i) Religion was a mechanism of divide and rule. The converts and the non-converts hated each other which caused division to the advantage of the Europeans. j) Collaboration with chattered companies, European Christian missionaries and their converts worked hand in hand with the Imperial British East African Company to defeat Kabalegas resistance. k) Missionary stations served as military bases from where the European colonial forces launched attacks on the resisting Africans. African Lugard used old Kampala hill as a military base against Kabalega. l) Mission stations served as colonial government headquarters. The established mission infrastructure was used to help in the establishment and sustenance of European colonial rule. m) Colonialists lacked skilled manpower, so the missionaries by design or accident were very faithful servants of the colonial government i.e. they were Colonial government servants. n) They created a peaceful atmosphere for the germination of colonialism in areas of hostility. This is because they emphasized the centralized leadership where peace and obedience were expected. o) Missionaries also trained manpower through introduction of education which was used by colonialists. This was done through teaching those academic subjects and manual skills like use of a plough and how to grow coffee. p) They acted as interpreters e.g. Tucker in the 1900 Buganda agreement. q) Through conversion of the Buganda chiefs and pages before Buganda commoners it meant that each party i.e. the Church Missionary Society and France had gained converts. This was a political security of sympathy to the Christian missionaries as against the Kabaka in Bugandas leadership. This indirectly undermined the Kabakas authority and respect i.e. his traditional power base was being eroded. **CITIZENSHIP** **What is citizenship?** This refers to the legal right of a person to belong to a particular country.

**TRADE** **Definition of trade** Trade refers to the exchange of goods and services between people or countries. Man must have started trading soon after the evolution of the homo sapien sapiens. Trade was occasioned by the existence of varying environmental and climatic conditions. Trade arises from the basic human needs such as satisfying food requirements **Methods of trade** There are two main methods of trade; 1. Barter trade 2. Currency trade. a) Barter trade This is the exchange of gods for gods. It is one of the earliest forms of trade that was even taking place during the reign of King Solomon of the Bible.Barter trade emerged from the natural needs of the people. For example, among the Kenyan pre-colonial communities such as the Maasai who kept livestock but did not have grains which the neighbouring kikuyu possessed. Barter trade sometimes even took place within the same community where some people had some special talents that others did not possess. E.g ironsmiths.A form of barter trade known as silent trade was practiced in some areas where the two involved communities could not speak the same language. For example, it existed between Morocco and Carthage in 400 BC.Barter trade can still be witnessed in the modern society. For example, Kenya exchanges tea and coffee with petroleum, chemicals and machinery from other countries. Barter trade however has the following disadvantages; a) It may involve bulky goods in the transaction. b) There may lack double coincidence. It is difficult always to get the goods one wants. c) Lack of standards of deferred payment; if a good was borrowed, it would be difficult to decide whether the same value was returned later or not. d) Some goods cannot be sub-divided into smaller units. If one wanted cloth equal to a half a sheep, then he could not divide the sheep into two parts. e) Lack of store of value for some goods which cannot be stored for a long time since they are perishable. E.g. milk, vegetables. f) Lack of measures of value; a specific quantity of goods cannot be measured vis--vis other goods. **Advantages of barter system** a) Poor countries without adequate foreign currencies benefit from it by being able to exchange goods they have for what they do not have. b) It benefits where money is non-existent. c) It avoids wastage as demand and supply tend to equate. d) It promotes interaction hence good relationship, peace and stability especially among traditional African societies. **b) Currency trade** This is a type of trade that involves the use of money. Money is an item that is mutually recognized as a medium of exchange or a measure of value. In the pre-colonial times items like Gold dust, cloth, copper rods, and iron and cowrie shells were used as a form of currency. **Advantages of the use of money in trade** a) Money is a medium of exchange- it is needed to obtain goods or services. b) Money as a measure of value enables units of goods to be bought. A specific quantity of goods can be measured Visa- Vis other goods. c) Money is a standard of deferred (future) payments which allows borrowing and lending to take place. d) It is a store of value- one is able to defer satisfaction of a want to future times or make provision for ones want at a future date. e) It is a means through which immovable property can be transferred. For example when one sells a house in one city to go and dwell in another. f) Money as a unit of account is used as a calculating medium and assigning prices of goods and services. g) Money is easily divisible into smaller units. For example, if a product is valued at a lower price, the buyer only pays the agreed cost. h) The qualities of money and its functions overcome the difficulties of barter. Money however becomes valuable only when those using it have confidence that it will continue to retain its value during the period it is in possession.Technology today has made the use of currency easier. There is the use of Visa Card and Mobile money services like Mpesa and Airtel Money to carry out transactions.Difference between barter trade and trade in which currency is used as a medium of exchange. a) In barter trade goods are exchanged for goods/in currency trade, there is use of money as a measure of value. b) In barter trade depends on the existence of a double coincidence of needs but in currency method one meets his needs by the use of money. c) Items used for barter trade are bulky (some) and inconvenient to handle -and others perishable. Money is not bulky. **Local trade** This refers to the exchange of goods between people within the same geographical area such as a village or town. **Origin of local trade** This form of trade took place between groups of people who produced different goods mainly because of varying ecological conditions. It was motivated by the following factors; a) Existence of surplus production e.g. where some communitys harvest was excess; they could sell the excess commodity to carter for shortages elsewhere and to avoid wastage. b) Differences in climate and environmental conditions which affected the type of natural resources available in various places/ not all needs of a particular community can be satisfied by the resources available hence trade. The kikuyu of Nyeri had to go to Mathira for their foodstuff requirements during drought periods. c) Specialization and improved technology which always creates a need to exchange skills and goods with those who do not have. E.g trade between Mathira kikuyu cultivators and the Mukurwe-ini kikuyu ironmongers and weavers. Some even exchanged skills for money. d) Population increase making man to begin to supplement his needs by trading with his neighbors.Sometimes, this trade extended even beyond the local community to the neighbouring community. The Abagusii, for example, acquired hides, milk, snake poison, and pottery items from their Luo Neighbours. Some seasonal markets emerged which enabled traders to meet and exchange goods on particular days of the week. **Factors that facilitated development of local trade** a) Availability of capital for investments in trade to generate more wealth. b) Specialization and improved technology, e.g. specialization in production, in technology and in marketing. Sometimes people even exchanged their skills for money. c) Demand and supply; the growing demand for goods and services was met by increase in supply. d) Enterprise; many people began to take greater risk and invested more in trade. e) Peace and stability. This enabled people to interact more and hence the growth and expansion of trade. **Impact of local trade** a) There was development of market places which specialized in certain items like pottery, iron tools and baskets. Others specialized in livestock b) Local trade helped to strengthen bonds between people in the same locality. It even enhanced intermarriages and other social functions. c) Local trade satisfied the requirements of the communities in terms of tools, foodstuff s, medicinal herbs etc. d) Local trade enhanced acquisition of new products that a particular community did not produce. e) There was an improvement of transport routes. Some markets were strategically located along transport routes. f) In centralized governments like Buganda, Bunyoro-Kitara, Mali, Ghana and Wanga, the local markets that developed due to the trade became important sources of revenue for the kingdoms. In Bunyoro-Kitara for example, the Omukama had officers whose duty was to collect taxes from the market places. g) Many people were brought together through trade. In BunyoroKitara, communities like the Alur, Acholi, Langi, Basoga, Baganda, Kumani, Iteso and Banyankole interacted through trade. NB; the greatest danger to the local traders was that they risked being attacked by hostile communities and wild animals. **Regional trade** This refers to a type of trade between two distinct geographical regions **Characteristics of regional trade** ~ It Takes place within a bigger geographical area. ~ It Involves intermediaries or middlemen between producers and the buyers. ~ The trade often covers long distances to and from the market. ~ It involves people who specialize mainly in trade as their means of livelihood. ~ Larger Varieties of goods are involved. In regional trade there existed established markets but goods did not have to be sold on a particular market days like the case of local trade. It also involved large volumes of trade as compared to local trade **Examples of regional trade included**: a) The Trans-Saharan trade b) The long-distance trade. **The trans-Saharan trade** Trans means across. This was therefore the exchange of goods across the Sahara between the peoples of North Africa (Berbers and Tuaregs) and the people of western Sudan (the darkskinned people who occupy the region south of the Sahara) The West African kingdoms of Mali, Ghana and Songhai were involved in this trade.Development of the trans-Saharan trade. (8th-16thc AD) **Factors that led to the development of the trans-Saharan trade** a) Demand for West African good such as gold, slaves and kola nuts by the North Africans and for North African goods like horses, cotton cloth and weapons by the west Sudan people. b) Existence of rich merchants in the region, such as the Berbers and Tuaregs, who provided capital for investment in the trade/ availability of capital. c) Existence of Local trade in the western Sudan belt and among the barbers and Tuaregs provided a base for the regional trade. d) Existence of the Tuaregs, who provided security to traders, guided them through the deserts and maintained some water points like the oases where the Berber merchants watered their camels and rested before continuing with their journey to and from western Sudan. e) Availability of well established trade routes across the desert which made it easy for the traders to travel. f) Existence of Kings in western Sudan like Mansa Musa of Mali and Askia Muhamed of Songhai who provided protection to traders, ensured peace and political stability. g) Availability of pack animals like the camel and the horse which enabled easy movement through the desert. The camel could carry heavy loads and travel long distances without water. h) Existence of oases which became a source of water during the travels, for the camels and the traders. i) Invasion of North Africa by the Arabs and their eventual settlement led to increase in the volume of trade. j) There were also vast trade goods like gold, palm oil and ivory. This stimulated the development of trans-Saharan trade. **The trade goods in the trans-Saharan trade** **From western Sudan;** a) Gold- this was by far the most important commodity that originated from the wangara region, Bornu, Upper Senegal and upper Niger. b) Slaves- they were forcefully captured and later used as soldiers and labourers in the Arab world. c) Kola nuts and feathers. Monopoly of the Hausa traders from Kano region. d) Hides and skins- from Hausa land for making leather clothing and shoes. e) Ivory- originated from western belt mainly from cote divore. f) Gum- from Mauritania and Senegal g) Dyed cloth and pepper **From the north** a) Salt- from Taghaza, Taodeni, Bilma and Ghadames. b) Horses- from Tripoli were on demand among the political leaders and their soldiers. c) Glassware, beads, mirrors, perfumes, spices, dried fruits, needles, firearms, daggers and cowrie shells. **Organization of the trans-Saharan trade** Beginning of Trans-Saharan Trade was due to the fact that North Africa was rich in the salt that West Africa lacked while West Africa was rich in gold. The Trans-Saharan trade led to an exchange of salt for gold.The trade was between people of the western Sudan and Arabs from North Africa.Because of the long distance involved, the traders had to organize themselves very well. Traders travelled in large caravans of camels and traders to enhance their security.The rich traders from North Africa initiated the trade. They provided trade goods, camels and horses to middlemen who coordinated the trade. The middlemen would contact desert guides known as takshifs who also acted as desert guards.They protected the traders and guarded the oases in the Sahara .The Tuaregs also provided the traders with security and acted as interpreters.The caravans usually departed from the north after the rainy season when sandstorms would subside for smooth travel. The traders made stops at the oases to refresh themselves and let their camels drink water. They carried gifts for leaders of the communities along the route to appease them and as reciprocation for security while traveling through their kingdoms. Rulers of western Sudan offered service to the traders while they were in the territory.The trade was conducted in barter/ exchanging one good for another/ silent trade. Some of the caravan traders used agents who sold goods on their behalf in the interim period between their departure back to the north until the time they came back to western Sudan. The rulers of western Sudan controlled trade/regulated amount of gold to be sold . The traders paid taxes to the kings of western Sudan.The main items of trade were gold and salt i.e. from the west came gold, ivory, slaves, ostrich feathers, leather, kola nuts and pepper. From the north came salt, horses, weapons, iron implements, clothes, silk and beads. Arabs and Berbers financed the trade.The traders followed fairly defined route. The most important routes were as follows; a) A route Starting at Sijilmasa (an oasis) in Morocco through Taghaza (a desert town with a lot of salt) and ended at Andaghost in western Sudan. b) A route starting in Tunis and passing through Ghadames, Ghat, Agades and Gao. Then it passed through Hausaland, Gonja and eventually ended at Yorubaland in modern Nigeria. c) A route beginning at Sijilmasa and passing through Timbuktu before proceeding to Gao. d) A route beginning at Tripoli passing through Fezzan and eventually ending at Bornu in the Sudan Belt. **Challenges faced by the trans-Saharan traders** a) There was Communication barrier due to lack of a common language for transactions. This was a challenge during the pioneer years. b) Traveling long distances for many months, usually up to three months, across the desert was tedious and stressful. c) Traveling under extreme weather conditions; too hot during the day and too cold at night. d) Scarcity of water and food during the journeys. The traders suffered serious sickness due to such extreme weather variations. e) There were constant Attacks by hostile communities who sometimes robbed them of their merchandize. f) Traders were sometimes attacked by insects like scorpions and wild animals. g) The traders sometimes suffered from Loss of direction due to the vastness of the desert. h) Exposure to frequent sandstorms which killed many traders. i) Sometimes wars between kingdoms disrupted trade. **Impact of the trans-Saharan trade** **Positive impact;** a) The trade stimulated the emergence of urban centres along the trade routes. Towns like Taghaza and Timbuktu developed due to the production of trade commodities like salt and gold respectively. b) Profits from the trade stimulated the growth of strong empires as the kings levied taxes on the caravan traders. Examples of such empires include Mali, Ghana and Songhai. c) Introduction of horses in the western Sudan belt led to strengthening of the state armies as horses were used by the armies to boost security in the region. d) A class of wealthy traders emerged in western Sudan. These were mainly the local merchants who interacted with the merchants from North Africa. e) The trade stimulated the emergence and growth of smithing technology and industry. f) The trade led to the introduction of iron tools in wider areas of western Sudan. This boosted agricultural production in western Sudan and ensured food security in the area. g) There was population increase in western Sudan due to increased food production as a result of better farming tools. h) It also enhanced contacts between North Africa and the Suda n belt. This facilitated the spread of European goods and ideas between the peoples of the two regions. i) The trade facilitated the spread of Islamic religion in the Sudan belt. For example, the Hausa traders were converted to Islam. j) There was introduction of the Islamic system of education in the Sudan belt. The University of Timbuktu for example, teaching mainly Islamic syllabus, was one of the institutions that emerged as a result of the trade. k) Sharia law was introduced in the states that accepted Islam in western Sudan. l) The trade led to the introduction of the Arabic architectural designs in West Africa. m) The Islamic and Arabic culture-language, mode of dressing and eating mannerisms also spread to western Sudan. n) The mode of transport in the region was remarkably revolutionized by theintroduction of camels and horses making transport efficient. **Negative impacts:** a) The trade increased warfare in the region as communities gained access to firearms and horses. Thousands of people lost their lives. b) Many people in the western Sudan belt were captured and taken into slavery to meet the demands of the trans-Saharan traders. c) The demand for ivory also led to the destruction of wildlife in western Sudan. Decline of the trans-Saharan trade. The trade reached its climax at around AD 8th c. by 15th c, the trade had declined due to the following reasons; a) Exhaustion of the salt and gold minefields as well as other like ivory. This discouraged traders from coming to West Africa. b) Increased political instability in the region due to so many wars of conquest created insecurity to the traders. c) The desert conditions e.g. harsh weather, dangerous insects, snakes and robbers discouraged many traders from the activity. d) Invasion of the region by the almorarids and the Tuaregs increased insecurity even more along the trade routes. Hence traders discontinued their involvement. e) Moroccan invasion of western Sudan in the 16th century undermined the trade. f) The growth of the trans-Atlantic trade attracted some of the trans-Saharan traders thus reducing the volume of commodities that were sold. g) Colonization of west and North Africa by Europeans who took over the resources hence African activities were undermined. h) Invasion of North Africa by the ottoman Turks created insecurity along the caravan routes leading to decline of the trade. i) Anti-slave trade pressure from the British and eventual abolition of slave trade reduced trade profits. j) The establishment of commercial ports on the western African coast and the use of navigable rivers by the 16th century AD rendered caravan trade unpopular as it was slow, cumbersome and risky. **International trade** This is a type of trade that involves the exchange of goods between different countries in one continent or beyond the continent. **Examples of international trade include** a) The Indian Ocean trade b) The trans-Atlantic trade. **The trans-Atlantic trade** The trans-Atlantic trade involved Europe, Africa and the Americas thus earning it the name Triangular trade. It was also called the trans-Atlantic slave trade because it involved crossing the Atlantic and the main commodity was slaves.The trade was fueled by the technological innovations especially in Spain and Portugal which facilitated sea transport.The trade happened at a time when the Europeans were keen on expanding overseas (15th and 16th c AD) for the following reasons; a. They were searching for the sea route to India and Far East to get the spices and other commodities. The Turks had blocked the land route. b. The Europeans wanted to acquire gold and other precious items that believed to be in existence in Africa. c. The Europeans wanted to revenge against the Muslims who had colonized the Iberian Peninsula between 8th c and 1491 AD. d. They were motivated by the desire to spread their civilization to the backward areas of the world. e. European countries such as Portugal and Spain also wanted to increase their geographical knowledge. **Origin of the trans-Atlantic trade** The exact date when the first slave was captured and sold was 1441 AD. Young Portuguese sailor named Ahtam Goncalvez captured a man and a woman on the Western Sahara coast whom he presented to Prince Henry the Navigator, the Portuguese king, thus setting off a chain of reaction in the trade. The Portuguese built a fort on the Arguin Island on the coast of Mauritania in 1445 which was used as a base for buying slaves and Gold. The suppliers of the slaves at the fort were the Moors.The Portuguese ventured into the gold coast in search of gold in 1471. They built a fort at Elmina in 1482.The Portuguese then established trading contacts with the king of Congo who even accepted Christianity and Portuguese culture. (He baptized his son Afonso Bemba Nzinga) By 1500AD, the Portuguese established sugar plantations in the island of Sao Tome near modern Gambia. They relied on slave labour from Gambia. **Development and organization of trans-Atlantic slaves.** The demand for labor in the western hemisphere stimulated a profitable three-legged trading pattern. European manufactured goods, namely cloth and metal wares, especially firearms, went to Africa where they were exchanged for slaves. The slaves were then shipped to the Caribbean and Americas from 1532 AD, where they were sold for cash or sometimes bartered for sugar or molasses. Then the ships returned to Europe loaded with American products.European ports of Bristol, Liverpool and Glasgow in Britain, Bordeaux and Nantes in France, and Amsterdam in Holland were crucial in this trade. The forts that developed in West Africa due to this trade were Elmina, Lagos, Whydah, Accra, Badagri, Sekondi, Winneba, Goree and Dakar. In the 16th c, the Portuguese emerged as the main suppliers of slaves to Spanish colonies, having been granted special licenses, asientos, by the Spanish monarchy.African slaves were more preferred by Europeans because; a. They were available in large numbers. b. They were found to be cheaper to use than European labouerers and American Indians. c. They were thought to be immune to both European and tropical diseases. d. They appeared stronger and therefore suitable for manual labour. The Dutch were among the first European nations to compete the Portuguese in slave trade. For example in 1630, they wrestled the Elmina Fort from the Portuguese and captured Luanda in 1641. They were supplying slaves to new sugar plantations in the British Colony of Barbados and the French Caribbean colonies of Martinique of Guadalupe. The British and the French used merchant companies to conduct the slave trade having been motivated by the fortunes the Dutch were making. e.g, the Royal African Company was granted charter in 1672 and began taking colonies to the British colony in Jamaica. The original capture of slaves was almost always violent. As European demand grew, African chieftains organized raiding parties to seize individuals from neighboring societies. Others launched wars specifically for the purpose of capturing slaves **Factors that facilitated the acquisition of slaves** a. Existence of the institution of slavery in West Africa where the war captives, adulters, witches, the weak, debtors and murderers were enslaved b. Availability of firearms to precipitate warfare and capture of the conquered as slaves. c. Existence of well defined trade routes easily used by the slave merchants to access the interior slave markets. d. The great demand for slaves in the New World (Latin America) and North America. **Ways of obtaining slaves** a) Selling of domestic slaves in exchange for goods like beads, guns, glass etc b) Selling of criminals, debtors and social misfits in society by the local chiefs to the Arab slave traders. c) Prisoners of war could be sold off. d) Porters were sometimes kidnapped, transported and sold off to the Arab traders. e) Raiding villages, this would begin at night with gun shots and people would scatter consequently leading to their capture. f) Through inter tribal wars many Africans become destitutes and these would be captured by the slave traders. g) Tax offenders were sold off by the African chiefs. h) They were also captured through ambushes during hunting, travelling and gardening. i) Slaves would be acquired from the main slave trade market in Zanzibar. j) Other Africans are also said to have gone voluntarily in anticipation of great wonders and benefits from the new world.Following capture, slaves were force- marched to the coast to holding pens where they were oiled and fed ready for inspection, before being loaded on ships. Prices of slaves depended on sex, age and size.The slaves were bartered for guns, alcohol, gun-powder, cloth and different metals. **Two trading systems were used:** a) Factory system where political authorities allowed Europeans to establish permanent coastal baracoons or fortresses where slaves were kept in bulk as they awaited shipment. This method was only used by chartered companies as t was expensive. It was also only viable in Dahomey where slaves were in large numbers. b) Private trading. Sailing with vessels down the coast, and then stopping at different points to purchase slaves until there was enough cargo.The slaves were branded before loading them into the ships ready for the trans-Atlantic journey which was called the Middle Passage. The ships were filthy, hot, and crowded. By 1654, some 8,000-10,000 Africans each year were undergoing the Middle Passage. The moment of sailing is described as the most traumatic. Many Africans revolted during the middle passage in a bid to escape. For some jumping overboard was more preferable than their blood being turned into red wine, bones into gunpowder, skins, into black leather shoes and flesh -the Whitemans meat as they believed. **Factors which led to the development of the trans-Atlantic slave trade** a) Increased demand for slave labour by European countries led them to West Africa where they were available in large numbers. **Dangers of Middle Passage** Suicide Disease The mortality rate averaged between 13 and 33 percent of the slaves and the crew. If the Atlantic were to dry up it would reveal a scattered pathway of human bones marking the various routes of the Middle Passage.. b) Greater preference for African slaves by the slave traders since they were thought to be more strong and resistant to tropical disease and could cope with stress easily. c) West Africa had well defined interior routes which enabled establishment of earlier strong trade links by the Europeans. There were also vast trade goods like gold, palm oil and ivory. This stimulated the development of trans-Atlantic trade. d) African chiefs had developed a taste for European goods like cloths, firearms and glass enabling exchange for slaves, gold ivory and palm oil. There was also existence of the institution of slavery in West African communities. e) The introduction of firearms facilitated the capture of slaves and hence their increased supply. f) The exploitation of minerals and establishment of plantations in the Americas pushed demand for slaves to higher levels hence trade with the region expanded. g) The increased demand for raw materials to feed the growing industries in Europe led to increased demand for slaves in cotton farms in the Americas. h) The rivalry between the Portuguese and the Spaniards and with the Britons over the control of slave trade pushed the trade to a higher new level. i) The fact the trade was very lucrative led to its further expansion. j) Improved technology which meant ability to construct greater capacity ships. Th is enhanced transportation of more slaves from West Africa and thus development of the trade . **Impact of trans-Atlantic trade on the people of West Africa** a) It caused immense suffering to many people. b) It led to forced emigration of about 10 million people to the Americas between 1500 and 1888. c) Many slaves died between capture and arrival to their destinations. d) Depopulation occurred in areas where slaves were taken from. This led to underdevelopment since the young and productive people were taken away. e) African traditional industries were destroyed by the sale of cheap manufactured goods from Europe. f) There was increased conflict between communities especially where the gun was used. This led to destruction of property during the inter-community wars. g) Many African communities were weakened and were left unprepared for the scramble and partition of Africa which soon followed. h) It led to rise and growth of states e.g. Asante, Dahomey. i) It led to founding of Liberia and Sierra Leone as settlements for slaves who were freed. j) It led to changes to social roles; women became the heads of their families due to the enslavement of men. k) Some African cultures spread to the Americas e.g Jazz Music and samba dancing styles of Brazil and even witchcraft. l) The trade led to the rise of the mullato population. E.g in Senegal, where they are mainly found in Goree and Dakar, as a result of the intermingling between the European traders and the African women. m) It contributed to the decline of the trans-Saharan trade and the colonization of West Africa. **Economic impacts of slave trade** a) It led to introduction of new (manufactured) goods in West Africa which undermined many indigenous technologies like smithing and medicine. b) Africa was depleted of her vital manpower that was greatly needed in agriculture and defence. This led to economic retardation. c) Destruction of African property during the slave raids. d) Led to the eventual decline of the Trans Atlantic trade at its abolition. e) Stimulated development of ports in West Africa and in Europe. f) African leaders accumulated a lot of wealth e.g Dahomey, jaja, Asantehene. g) It led to development of European economies. A number of large cities grew along the coastal ports. For example Glasgow, Bordeaux Liverpool and Nantes. h) Growth of industrialization in Europe as the slave labour ensured constant flow of raw materials into the industries. i) Some of the slave dealers accumulated enormous wealth. For example, the merchants like Barclays Brothers and sailing companies like Lloyds. j) The trade led to the expansion of plantation farming in USA (cotton and sugar plantations) which relied on slave labour. **Decline of the trans-Atlantic slave trade** In 1807, the British government made a decision to abolish slave trade. Factors that led to the abolition of slave trade; a) Rise of humanitarians in Europe such as Christians and scholars condemned it on moral grounds. The missionaries wanted it to be stopped because they wanted good conditions for the spread of Christianity. The formation of the humanitarian movements in Engl and aimed at stopping all kinds of cruelty including slave trade, flogging of soldiers and child labour. b) Industrialization in Britain was one of the main forces behind the abolition .E.g. Britain industrialists urged its abolition because they wanted Afri cans to be left in Africa so that Africa can be a source of raw materials for their industries, market for European manufactured goods and a place for new investment of surplus capital. c) Formation of Anti-slavery movement and the abolitionist movement in 1787. Its chairman was Granville Sharp and others like Thomas Clarkson, William Wilberforce who gathered facts and stories about the brutality of slave trade and slavery to arouse public opinion in Britain. d) The attainment of independence by USA in 1776 left Britain in a dilemma since she had no colonies where she would take the slaves to work. e) The French revolution of 1789 and the American revolution of 1776 emphasized liberty, equality and fraternity (brotherhood) of all human beings. As a result, people began to question whether anyone had a right to deprive fellow man of his liberty when he had done wrong. f) The British desire to protect their national interests, British planters wanted slave trade stopped to avoid competition with other European planters .This is because other planters were producing cheaper sugar, British sugar accumulated hence the need to stop over production. g) The closure of the American slave market after the defeat of the South American states in the American civil war of 1865 left the slave dealers with no market for their slaves. h) The rise of leading London economists with new ideas e.g. Prof. Adam Smith(challenged the economic arguments which were the basis of slave trade when he argued convincingly that hired labour is cheaper and more productive than slave labour, Rousseau spread the idea of personal liberty and equality of all men. i) Influential abolitionists like William Wilberforce (a British member of parliament) urged the British government to legislate against the slave trade in her colonies. They in turn influenced public opinion against slave trade. j) The ship owners stopped transporting slaves from Africa and began transporting raw materials directly from Africa and America to Europe, which led to a decline in slave trade. **TRANSPORT** **Definition of Transport** Transport is the movement of people and from one place to another.Transportation is usually classified by the medium in which the movement occurs. For example, land, air and water transport.Transport can be categorized into traditional and modern means. a) Traditional means of transport. The means of transport at this category were land and water evolved. **Land transport** People move on land either by walking or by using other human powered transport. People also use domestic animals as a means of transportation **Human transport** Human powered transportation included carrying goods on their backs, heads and shoulders. Africans were used as porters during the slave trade. Human porterage still goes on in the modern society. **Limitation of human porterage**
Human porterage was cumbersome, slow and tiresome. Humans Carry limited amount of goods at particular time. It is not convenient over long distances.
**Animal transport** Early human beings used the domesticated animals to carry loads on their backs or pull carts. Such animals are referred to as pack animals.In 500 AD a paddled collar was devised that rested on the animals shoulders. In 200 AD saddles were introduced in Egypt. Horse shoes were introduced in 700 AD ***Donkey\\Ass*** The first animals to be used as pack animals; they were used in Egypt as early as 3400bc to carry weight upto 80kg. They were commonly used in the trade between Nubia and South Sudan. In Ukambani today, donkeys are used to fetch water. ***Oxen*** Referred to as draught animals used for ploughing and pulling carts and also transportation of goods and people. ***Horses*** They were first rode but were later trained to pull wagons, chariots and passenger coaches. In the Roman Empire, they carried soldiers during war. (Soldiers on horseback are referred to as cavalry. **Disadvantages of horses** a) It is highly susceptible to diseases. b) It cannot survive in tsetse fly infected areas. c) The weight limit of the load it can carry is 120kg d) They are not suitable in arid and semi-arid areas because they need a lot of water. NB; - horses are mainly reared by the rich as a symbol of high social status. Mules.A crossbreed of a horse and a donkey, they are sterile and carry loads upto 110kg.they are mostly used in mountainous areas in central and southern Europe and in Mexico. **Camels** It is referred to as the ship of the desert. What makes a camel ideal in desert transport? a) It has a unique ability to survive for long without food and water. b) They have an incredible water storage capacity, they do not sweat lose much moisture. c) They have broad padded, two toed feet ideal for walking on desert sand. d) The nostrils have flaps which keep away sand during sandstorms. e) Its fur is thick enough to protect it from the sweltering desert heat by day and ext reme cold conditions at night. f) The hump contains a lot of fat which the camel uses when it goes without eating Camels were commonly used during the trans-Saharan trade. They are in use in Kenya today among the Galla and Somali carrying weight upto 200kg. Llamas and alpaca. Members of the camel family found in central and south America. They carry load upto 40 kg. **Elephants** They are used in Asia to carry people and heavy loads upto 250kg. In India, they were used to transport people and goods during war in 2500BC. In Africa they were used in warfare in 270BC. **Water Buffalo**. A member of the cattle family and the only type of buffalo that has been domesticated. The cape buffalo of Africa and the Pygmy buffalo of Philippines have not been domesticated. It isused to pull ploughs and do other heavy work in India and south East Asia. **Reindeer** A long-horned deer family breed used in the cold parts of Canada, Sweden and Norway for riding and transportation. It also provides milk, meat, hides and horns. ***Dogs*** Dog types like Bouriers were used to pull small carts and sledges, especially in the Arctic thus making transportation of gods and people easy. Dogs are also used in guiding blind people in sports and as pets at home. **Advantages of animal transport** a) Pack animals can be used in largely inaccessible areas. The Llama, for example is used in the mountainous areas with narrow and meandering paths and steep cliffs. The camel is well adapted for deserts. b) Animals are cheap to maintain. They attract very little maintenance costs, since only feeding costs are incurred. c) Pack animals are safe as accidents are rare probably because they do not speed.. d) Animals help to maintain the ecological balance since they do not interfere with the environment. e) Pack animals are capable of sensing danger. For example, horses and dogs can sniff out an enemy from a distance. This enhances security as dangerous confrontations with an enemy can easily be avoided. **Disadvantages of animal transport** a) Animal transport is slow and tedious. The animals need to feed and drink along the way. b) Pack animals may be attacked by wild animals, disease- causing insects such as tsetse- flies and disease. a. Their movement is limited to the day only and cannot travel at night. b. They can only carry small loads as compared to vehicles. c. Some pack animals such as donkey are stubborn when tired and heavily loaded. The camel is only suited for the desert. d. Pack animals use is limited to short distances as they fatigue when they travel for long. **The wheel** The wheel was invented in sumeria at about 3000bc. By 2500BC, they had invented the spoked wheel used on horse drawn chariots. The chariot was used in Mesopotamia at around 2000BC and later spread to Egypt, Persia, Rome, china, Africa and Europe. The cart or wagon pulled by humans or animals was the first wheeled vehicle. The wheeled wagons and carts created the need for roads Today many types of wheels are in use. For example, the steering wheel for cars, turbines for jet engines and gyroscopes used in the automobile pilot technology. Ways in which invention of the wheel impacted on road transport a) More roads were constructed to use wheel vehicles for transport b) Road transport became faster and efficient c) Bigger loads could be carried hence was cost effective profitable d) It made the use of motor engine driven vehicles possible e) It enabled man to move over long distance to disseminated ideas and interact. **Water transport** Water transport has progressed from early rafts and canoes to the modern large passenger and freight ships. **Rafts** A raft is a simple floating structure, usually made by tying together floating material like animal skin, papyrus stalks or logs. The earliest people to make rafts were the Australians. They made rafts called catamaran by tying logs together. Long poles were then used to drive the raft.Rafts however sank easily and required a lot of manpower upstream. A canoe was a narrow boat that was propelled by one or more paddles. The oldest canoe was made by stripping the bark from trees (bark canoes). Later a new canoe was made from a hollow on a log (dug-out canoe).In Kenya, canoes are used for transporting people and goods and for fishing in inland lakes and rivers. **Oar-driven boats** Boats are small vessels for travelling on water and are powered by oars, sails or motor. The Egyptians pioneered in the building of boats that used oars (a short wooden pole with a flat end) instead of paddles in 3000BC. The Phoenicians, Greeks and the Romans developed oardriven trading vessels and warships. **Sailing ships.** Humankind learned that the wind could move a boat more easily than human beings if the ship had a piece of cloth fixed on poles (sail). The Egyptians used the sailing ships by 3000BC on the Mediterranean and Red seas. The Greeks made sailing ships known as galleys which were used for trade and war. They used war galley known as triremes to defeat the Persians and Phoenicians.Sailing ships were depending on monsoon winds discovered by Hippalus. The Arabs and Persians relied on the monsoon winds to reach the east African coast.The Portuguese invented a three-masted ship called a caravel as the one used by Christopher Columbus and other explorers to sail to America and the Far East. The Carrack used by Vasco da Gama was five-masted to sail to east Africa. Ferdinand Magellan became the first person to sail around the world using a Sailing ship Fast sailing ships called clippers were made in 1840s in America. It was a long and narrow ship with sharp bows and almost straight sides.However, sailing ships could not sail on windy days and seasons. Some communities however still use sailing ships upto today for sports, fishing and leisure.By the 12th c AD, the magnetic compass was being used in navigation aid **Factors that led to the development of various forms of transport** a) Technological development during the scientific age which enabled man to invent machines which could be used to manufacture various parts of cars , rails, airplanes, ships and motor boats. b) Expansion of geographical knowledge encouraged the development of transport so as to enable man to search new places faster and more safely. c) Introduction of specialization as a means of production which necessitated exchange o goods and services which could only be made possible through development of transport and communication. d) Population increase hence demands for more food and goods hence the need for essential transport system. e) In order to satisfy the desires of man there was need to develop a system of transport that would enable man to get the goods and services he needed so much. **Modern means of transport** **Road transport** The invention of the wheel stimulated the construction of roads. The Roman soldiers built hard and straight roads all over Europe and North Africa by around 300 BC. The roads were built by digging a trench, 1.5metres deep which then would be packed with heavy stones or rocks. Rough and fine concrete was added to the foundation, then layers of gravel, chalk and cement. The road surface was slightly convex with deep trenches on the sides. Roman roads declined with the fall of the Roman Empire.Attempts to built better roads in Europe in the 18th c were made by George Wade (1673- 1748) built 400km of roads and John Metcalfe (17171-1810) built 290km of roads.However modern road construction is attributed to John McAdam (1756-1836). McAdam laid three layers of small broken stones packed tightly together. He then placed a layer of gravel which was bound together by the weight of a vehicle. These roads were called the flexible road or macadamized road. These roads were straight and had a smooth surface. They were widelyused all over the world. They have curved surfaces and had a Good drainage system. They are cheap and durable.The roads were later improved by adding tar to produce a water proof surface called tarmac. By 1820, Britain had built 200,000km of road. **Advantages of macadamized roads** a) They were durable with three layers of small broken stores b) They were cheap to construct using stones as the basic material for construction c) They had a smooth motoring surface since the gravel layer was bound together by the weight of vehicles d) They were straight hence reduced occurrence of accidents e) They were easily drained due to their smooth surface and being raised. **The bicycle** In 1790, a Frenchman, de Divrac made the first bicycle which was pushed with the feet thus called a walkalong. A german named Baron Karl Drais invented a walkalong called draisine which had a steering bar connected to the front wheel.In 1860, Ernes Michaux, a French locksmith, invented a bicycle with two wheels and pedals attached to the front wheel.In 1866, Piere Allement a Frenchman, was given the first patent on a bicycle, boneshaker. It had iron wheels fixed to wooden spokes. In 1873, a bicycle named a high- wheeler was introduced in England. The firs bicycle in England was made by Kirk Patrick Macmillan of Scotland.James Starley is referred to as the father of the cycle industry. In 1870, he invented the tension spoked wheel in which the rim and the hub were connected by wire spokes.John Dunlop invented the tyre filled with compressed air in 1888 which replaced the iron tyres and solid rubber tyres.In 1893, a bicycle with a diamond shaped frame with a roller-chain-drive and a compressed air wheel was invented.The bicycle is today used all over the world not only for transport, but also for sporting and leisure activities. The advantage of a bicycle is that it easily used on narrow paths and on a fairly level surface. It is also cheap and convenient. **Motor vehicles** These are self-propelled power-driven land transportation devices used to transport people or goods, especially on land. The device converts fuel into energy to provide the power for the vehicle to move.The first attempt to power drive devices was the suggestion by a Swiss clergyman J.H Genevoisin 1760 that wind springs be used to move wheels on roads.However the making of an engine that could drive a vehicle is attributed to a French engineer, Nicholas Joseph Cugnot (1725- 1804). He built a three wheeled steam-driven vehicle in 1769, though he abandoned his experiment prematurely. In 1883, a German, Gottlieb Daimler (1834-1900) produced a high speed petrol engine which he fitted on a wooden cycle in 1885. Karl Benz (1844-1929) fitted the same engine on a w tricycle in the same year.In 1886, Daimler made the first petrol driven car with four wheels. Benz built the first four wheeled Benz car in 1893. In the same year, an American, Charles Duryea (1862-1938) built the first gasoline powered automobile. The tyres made by Dunlop were fitted on these cars to make them more comfortable.The first car in the motor industry, Panhard-Hevassor, was made by a French company which had bought the rights to use Daimlers engine.In 1903 in USA Henry Ford founded the Ford Motor Company in Detroit leading to mass production of cars in the world. For example the model TFord was developed in 1909.Students read more on the motor vehicle inventions. **Impact of road transport** a) Roads have promoted trade within and between countries since goods are transported by road to various markets. This case is true in east Africa. b) Road transport has stimulated industrial development as raw materials to factories and manufactured goods to the market are easily transported. c) Development of towns and urban centres along roads has been as a result of improved road transport. d) Many countries earn a lot of foreign exchange from the sale of motor vehicles. For example Japan, Germany and USA. e) Employment opportunities are created as many people work in the motor vehicle industry while others are employed to construct and maintain roads. **Advantages of road transport** a) Since it is the commonest mode of transport, it reduces the cost of movement of goods and people as well as promoting social interaction. b) It is cheaper compared to other forms of transport. Roads are easier to construct and maintain when compared to railway transport. c) It is faster when compared to water and railway transport unless in the case of electric trains. d) Roads are flexible and link with other forms of transport such as water, railway and air. **Disadvantages of road transport** a) The high number of accidents on roads leads to loss of lives. b) Road transport is responsible for pollution which causes environmental degradation. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Cheloti 2012-2013 20 c) Due to an increased number of vehicles on roads, traffic congestion is a major concern in most urban cities and towns. d) Roads may sometimes inconvenience the users when they become impassable. e) The quantity of goods carried is limited as roads cannot carry bulky goods compared to the railway. f) The use of roads is limited to specific areas. It cannot go beyond land e.g across the sea or lake. g) Construction of all-weather roads is expensive. Developing countries find themselves constrained by limited resources that are needed to construct all-weather roads. **Rail transport** Railway lines are paths of parallel metal rails that allow a wheeled vehicle to move easily by reducing friction. Initially, they were used in 1800s to guide horse drawn wagons. Later the steam engine replaced horses as the means of transport.The development of modern railway was a gradual process that started in Britain and Germany with the use of wooden rails.A British engineer, Richard Trevithick (1771-1833) designed a steam engine that was small enough to be put on a truck. This he fitted on a railway locomotive which he had bought in 1804 to pull a cargo and passenger train in south Wales. Fenton, Murray and Wood of Leeds built the John Blenkinsopp locomotive in 1812. William Hedley built the puffing Billy in 1813.George Stephenson (1781-1845) a coal miner in Newcastle, England invented a locomotive engine called the Blucher which pulled eight laden wagons in 1814. He also built the worlds first public railway between Stockton and Darlington near Durham in 1825. In 1829, Stephenson and his son, Robert, built the most improved engine, the rocket, which had a speed of 48 km per hour. In 1830, he built the Northumbrian and the planet.In 1825, in the United States, Colonel John Stevens built a tiny experimental locomotive. In 1929, a major railway was built by the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company to serve a coal mine.Germany and Belgium had railroads by 1835, Russia by 1837, Spain by 1848 and Sweden by 1856.In 1892, a Germany Rudolf Diesel designed a heavy oil-driven-engine which replaced the steam engine. It was cheaper and efficient.The first diesel railcar was used in 1913 in Sweden. Later diesel engines were replaced with electric engines which was an invention of the Siemens Brothers and John Hopkinson in Britain in 1883. The electric train from Paris to Lyon covers a distance of 212 km in one hour.Railway transport has remained a major mode of passenger travel. In Europe and Japan, major cities are connected by high speed passenger trains such as the French TGV (Train a Grange Vitesse) and the Japanese Shinkansen trains travelling at a speed of 300km/h. **Results of railway transport.** a) It has promoted the movement of people thus leading to increased social and cultural interaction. People can migrate easily in Europe thanks to the faster electric trains. b) It has promoted trade as goods, light, heavy or bulky, are transported efficiently to the markets. It also supplements the use of other forms of transport. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Cheloti 2012-2013 21 c) It has stimulated industrial development since in dustrial products and raw materials can now be transported faster and in large quantities. d) Railway transport has stimulated the growth of urban centers. In Kenya for example, urban centres like Nairobi, Kisumu, Mombasa and voi either developed along the railway line or at the terminus. e) It has facilitated the spread of religious faiths and political ideas. This was the case in Kenya during the period of missionary work and colonization. In a way railway transport therefore facilitated European occupation of overseas colonies. f) There has been a significant improvement in agriculture since agricultural goods are transported more easily and faster using the railway. g) It has been a source of employment for many people I maintenance, engine driving etc. h) It has facilitated the exploitation of natural resources like mining, fisheries and forestry. The raw materials from these resources are transported faster using the railway. i) Railway transport has stimulated economic growth since it is a source of revenue for many governments. **Disadvantages of railway transport** a) It is expensive to construct. The wagons are also expensive to buy and maintain. b) Railway transport lacks in flexibility. It can only pass through certain landscapes. c) Smoke emitted from the trains lead to environmental pollution. d) Railway accidents might be rare but when they happen, they are fatal. This was the case in Kenya in 1998 when 200 people lost their lives. e) Railway transport is not self sufficient. T has to be supplemented with road transport. **Water transport** **Canal vessels** A canal is an artificial river that is used to transport people and goods. It may be built to link a ricer and a lake, sea or a sea with a sea. Apart from transportation, their water may be used in irrigation like in the case of River Nile.Canals have been used for centuries for transportation. The earliest canal was built by the Europeans nearly 4000 years ago to link the river Nile and the Red sea.The longest canal, the Grand Canal in china is bout 1900km long and it links the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers.Canal building in Europe was pioneered by the Romans who built them for transportation, irrigation and drainage. The Dutch, British and the French also constructed elaborate canals.Canal building in the US began in 1817 and ended in 1825 with the construction of the Erie Canal which is 845 km long connecting Hudson River with Lake Erie. It is now known as the New York State Barge. Up to 1840, 4,800 km of canals had been constructed in USA.Another type of canals is the ship canals, for example the Suez Canal, Panama Canal and Kiel Canal, which are deeper. The Suez Canal in Egypt is 195 km long and links the Mediterranean Sea with the red sea. It was constructed between 1859 and 1869 by a French company under. Ferdinand Lesseps. The Kiel Canal links the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. The Panama Canal was built by the USA Government between 1904 and 1914 linking the pacific and Atlantic oceans. It is the most important canal as it shortened the long and dangerous trip around the southern tip of south Africa. The St. Lawrence Seaway is the longest and most important inland waterway system in North America. It is 3,800 km long and was completed in 1855 in USA and 1895 in Canada. **Steamships** Steamships were made after the invention of the steam driven engine. The first attempt to make a steamship was made by Dr. Denis Papin of France when he fitted a steam engine to a boat and sailed along river Fulda in Hanover. In 1736, Jonathan Holls of Gloucestershire patented a steam tugboat but it was nev er tried.In 1774, Comte J B dAuxiron of France experimented with a steamboat but also failed like Papin as it broke down.In 1775, C Perier became the first person to move a small boat powered by steam engine o river Seine in Paris.The first successful steamboat was built and tried out in1783 by a Frenchman called Marquis de Jouffrey on River Saone near Lyons in France. In America, John Fitch built a steamboat in 1787. It was used on river Delaware between Philadelphia and Trenton. In 1809, William Symington and Miller Pat succeeded in constructing a wooden steamship that was used on the Forh-Clyde Canal in southern Scotland.In 1807, in America, Robert Fulton had invented a double paddle-wheeled steamboat known as Clermont which began operating on the Hudson River. In1807, the phoenix became the first steamship that made regular voyage from Philadelphia to New York.In 1819, the savannah became the first ship equipped with a steam engine to cross the Atlantic Ocean.In 1853, the peninsular and oriental Line built the iron-screw steamer, Himalaya, the biggest vessel as at that time.John Elder invented a compound engine with two cylinders which reduced fuel consumption in steamships. In 1838, Sirius sailed from London to New York, the Great Western, without using sails crossed the Atlantic in 15 days from Bristol.In 1839, the Archimedes and the Robert F Stockton were built using Smiths and Ericcsons patent.The most important ship to cross the Atlantic was the Great Britain built by the Islamabad Kingdom of Brunei in 1843. The first USA trans-Atlantic steamers were the Herman and Washington.The first merchant ship to be all-welded without any rivets in its hull was the MS Fullagar in 1920. **Importance of the discovery and use of the steamship** a) Man could no longer depend on nature wind for power. This made travel by sea easier and more comfortable. b) It led to expansion of international trade since transportation became cheap. c) Bigger volumes and varieties of goods could be carried including those that required special handling like petrol. d) It formed the basis for colonization as colonizers could move to other continents easily. e) It increased international migrations and spread of races, cultures, diseases, intermarriages, languages and religion f) It led to greater expansion of geographical knowledge. It gave access to countries bordered by sea. g) It led to expansion of world economies, industries, trade and commerce. h) Spread of plants and animals internationally. **Motor- Driven ships** With the invention of the internal combustion engine, oil replaced coal. The Caspian Steamer Wanal was built in 1903 was the first sizeable ship with an internal combustion engine.In the 20th c, the use of atomic energy (nuclear power) was developed. The first ship to use atomic power was the Nautilus in 1956. In 1961, an American merchant ship, MV Savannah, propelled by nuclear power was launched.There are two types of ships based on the service offered; a) The Liners operate regular scheduled services on defined trade routes charging advertised rates. b) The Tramp ships carry any suitable cargo between any two points based on a negotiated contract. They have no regular route or timetable. **Modern passenger Liners** The cruise ship, the most important passenger liner, is a specially designed vessel providing luxurious surroundings and entertainment to passengers. It is about 270 m and carries 2000 passengers. New passenger Liners were developed after World War II for example the American United States of 1952 and the British Queen Elizabeth 2 of 1969. The liners were overtaken by the development of the aeroplane and airline transport and only a few remain today. **Freight Vessels** These are Special Ocean going ships designed for carrying large amounts of cargo. Containerships transport large metal containers that have been pre-loaded with cargo. Some container ships carry over 6,800 containers. **Military Vessels** In 1859, the French launched Gloire, the first iron-plated ship. During the American civil war (1861-1865), two iron-plated ships were used. In world war II, battleships, Aircraft carriers (can carry 85 aircrafts) , cruisers, destroyers, destroyer escorts(frigates), minesweepers, torpedo boats, landing craft and other support vessels were developed. **Hydrofoils and hovercraft** These are specialized water vessels (a hydrofoil has small wing-like surfaces called foils attached to the bottom of its hull that lifts the hull out of water when the hydrofoil accelerates. A hovercraft is lifted entirely off the water surface by a cushion of air and are propelled by giant air propellers or by water jets) **Ferries** These are vessels used to transport people, animals and vehicles over water in places where bridges would be inconvenient or impossible to build. **Motorboats and personal craft** These are small boats that are used for recreational purposes with either out boat motors or in boat motors. **Pipeline transport** This is a form of transport used to move liquids, gases or solid liquid mixtures over long distances. The most common liquid that is transported by pipeline in many countries is water. Others are oil and gas. Pipelines are also used to transport solids suspended in liquids such as coal slurry which consists of powdered coal suspended in water. **Air Transport** This is the fastest form of transport over long distances and continents. Different types of Aircraft exist. **Aeroplane** An airplane is an aircraft heavier than air that uses wings to obtain lift in order to fly thus transporting people, mail and cargo from place to place. They are also use in warfare. The development of an aeroplane started in 1783 when a successful manned flight was made in France by two brothers, Jacques and Joseph Montgolfier using a hot air balloon. Sir George Cayley, an English scholar and inventor, built model Gliders that could sail in the air in the 19th c. Later, Pilcher added wheels to the gliders in order for them to be towed into the air. By 1850, power driven planes were built. An English engineer, John String built and designed power-driven planes. In December 1903, An American astronomer, Samuel Langleys almost won the honour of perfecting the power driven airplanes, by making a full size airplane called the aerodrome. The plane unfortunately crashed in Potomac River before being launched. On 17th December 1903, two weeks after Langleys failure, the Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur Wright, produced the first manned power driven aeroplane at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina USA. Their machine was a wooden glider fitted with a petrol engine and two propellers. In 1906, a Brazilian- born aviation pioneer made the first officially observed European flight in a powered bi- plane.In 1909, Louis Bleriot of France became the first person to fly a plane across the English Channel in 35.5 minutes. In 1915, the Germans used the first mono-plane during the First World War. In 1919, John N. Alcock and Arthur W Brown flew non-stop across the Atlantic from New Foundland to Ireland.Later improvements in the plane were replacement of wood and cloth with aluminum and stainless steel, invention of a retractable gear that improved streamlining in planesBy 1920, plane speed had gone up to 303 km /h. in 1940; it was 755 km/h.The best known aviator in 1920s was Charles Linburgh who accompanied a non-stop flight from New York to Paris in 1927 in his single monoplane called the spirit of Saint Louis in 33 hours.In 1920, the first scheduled passenger service was made between Amsterdam and England by KLM Dutch Airlines.In 1930, the first pressurized plane was launched. The most popular passenger plane at that time was the DC-3 built by Douglas Aircraft Company. It had a capacity of 30 people and moved at a speed of 320 km. **The jet engine** The jet engine was invented by German engineers in 1939.the first jet powered airplane was the german Heinkel HE -178. The first practical jet fighter was the Lockheed P-8 developed in 1944.During the post war period, the jet engines were put to commercial use.. For example, the Boeing 707 flight which was launched in 1958 in USA. The Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet which entered the market in 1970 can carry 375 passengers, 20 tonnes of freight and move at a speed of 900 km/h.The Supersonic Loans Port (SST) is designed to fly at speeds of over 1180 km/h. the Russian TU-144 and the French British Concorde are both SSTs and entered passenger market in 1972. **Helicopters** It is a type of airplane which obtains its lift from a set of rotor blades rather than fixed wings. The first successful helicopter was made in 1907 when a French helicopter left the ground for a few seconds.Germany made the first practical helicopter in 1936 while the United States Army unveiled its wartime helicopter in 1942. **Uses of helicopters** **Lighter- than-air-vehicles** These include balloons relying on hot air and lighter than air gases like helium and hydrogen for lift.Airships that combine lighter than air gas bags with propellers navigation were initially used for passenger traffic but their usage declined due to several fatal accidents. For example the disaster that befell the German airship, Hindenburg, in New Jersey in 1937. **The rocket engine** Rocket engines use fuel. They carry chemicals which enable them to burn their fuel without air supply. The first rocket engine to be used was by a German manufacturer, Fritz von Opel in 1930. An American, R H Goddard also developed a modern rocket in Massachusetts in the USA. Factors which encouraged the development of air transport. a) The effect of the First World War- it increased demand of war planes-jet fighters and fighter planes flying over 600kph were manufactured. b) The arms race and the cold war which also made many countries to acquire many planes.-fear, jealousy and competition based on ideological differences. c) Desire for comfort among passengers and the need to transport perishables quickly. d) Expansion of international trade and desire for more wealth. e) Colonization and international migrations. f) The expansion of the tourist industry. g) Vast improvement in science and technology and growth of industries. **Results of air transport** 1) Air transport is a major global employer. The air transport industry directly generates 5.5 million jobs globally and contributes USD 408 billion to global GDP. It directly contributed USD 1,830 billion to world GDP in 2007 and generated 79 million direct jobs globally 2.8% of total employment. 2) Air transport is an important facilitator of international trade, thereby promoting economic growth and development. Forecasts suggest that the global economy will become even more dependent on trade over the next decade. World trade is expected to nearly double, rising at more than twice the rate of global GDP growth, with China, India and emerging markets leading the way. 3) Air transport stimulates Tourism which makes a major contribution to the global economy.The air transport industry plays a major role in supporting tourism. Over 40% of international tourists now travel by air, up from 35% in 1990. At the same time, the WTTC estimates that foreign visitors account for just fewer than 25% of overall tourism spending around the world. This includes spending by business travelers, as well as those on leisure trips or visiting friends and relatives. 4) Air transport is a significant tax payer. Unlike other transport modes, the air transport industry directly pays for its own infrastructure costs. The user charges collected by airport operators pay both for the day-to-day services they provide to airlines and their customers, and also for the massive investment in runways, terminals and other infrastructure required for a modern, efficient air transport service. In addition, companies in the air transport industry make significant tax payments to national treasuries. 5) Air transport expands the range of consumer choices and opportunities to visit other countries and to experience new cultures. 6) Air transport delivers humanitarian aid. Air services play an essential role in humanitarian assistance to countries facing natural disasters, famine and war through cargo deliveries, refugee transfers or the evacuation of people trapped by natural disasters. They are particularly important in situations where access is a problem for example, air drops are among the first response of aid agencies to stem a humanitarian crisis. 7) Air transport also plays a vital role in the rapid delivery of Medical supplies and organs for transplantation worldwide. 8) Air transport provides access to remote areas. Air transport provides access to remote areas where other transport modes are limited. Many essential services, such as food deliveries, hospitals, education and post, would not be available for people in such locations without air services. And residents would be isolated from family, friends and business contacts. 9) Air transport has improved security as soldiers can be flown to troubled areas. Aeroplanes are also used in espionage 10) Air transport has led to improvement f space exploration. Satellites are used to study objects in space such as stars and planets. 11) Air transport has promoted international cooperation and understanding. People from different countries can exchange ideas.. 12) It has provides the fastest means of transport for passengers and goods thus increasing cultural and social exchange. 13) Aeroplanes are used to break hail in order to cause rain. 14) Plans and other aircraft have added to variety to sporting and entertainment. E.g the staging of fighter plane shows in public holiday celebration. 15) Aircraft has revolutionized warfare especially during the Second World War when countries began using panes in warfare. 16) International terrorism has been facilitated in the recent past by aeroplanes. Incidents of planes being hijacked are becoming common in the world today. 17) Air transport contributes to environmental pollution due to waste discharged by the burning fuel. Jets cause noise pollution. 18) Air transport has enhanced agriculture as planes are used to spray and dust insecticides on crops in the case of large scale farming. They are also used in quick delivery of perishable farm produce from horticultural farms. 19) Planes assist in fire fighting, inspecting fence lines and power cables and border patrol. 20) Aeroplanes are used in making aerial survey in cartography thus improving map making. 21) Air transport enhances wildlife management and conservation. Counting of animals by wildlife officers is one used planes. 22) In meteorology, air transport has enhanced weather survey. 23) Air transport sometimes leads to deaths of many people when fatal accidents occur. For example, the mid-air blow-up of the trans World Airline plane over the Atlantic ocean in July 1996, the 5th may 2007 crashing of a Nairobi bound KQ 507 moments after leaving Duala international Airport in Cameroon killing 114 passengers. **Space exploration** This is the attempt by scientists to reach the heavenly bodies namely the stars and moon to learn more about them and their importance to man as a whole. Space age refers to the period in which the exploration of space became possible. It began with the launch of the first artificial satellite in October 1957 by the soviet union - Sputnik.The first human to go to space was a Russian Major Yuri Gagarin using Vostok I in April 1961. Inthe same year an American, John Glenn also went to space.Neil Armstrong, an American Became the first man to land on the moon in July 1969 in his space craft, Apollo II. He was accompanied by Edwin E Aldrin Jr and Michael Collins. Many other have toured the moon since then.Later on a space shuttle was built. The first space shuttle, Columbia, launched in 1981, carried two American astronauts, John W. Young and Robert L Crpens. In 1983, the space shuttle, challenger released a satellite into space. One of the crew members, Sally K Ride became the first woman astronaut to go to space.In 1984, Kathryn D Sullivan became the first American woman to walk in space .By 1988, there were 300 operating satellites in space while 1200 were not functioning. **Challenges facing space exploration** a) Deadly hazards like cosmetics and solar radiation and micro meteorites dangerous to spacecraft. b) Hostile natural environment which is unsuitable for human life making it very expensive. c) Extreme temperatures and light intensities. Extreme darkness and brightness. Such difficulties have been overcome through development of new tools and techniques for space navigation. **Importance of space exploration to man** a) Spacecrafts continue to provide information about conditions in space in particular about the weather. b) Reports derived from weather satellite can act as warning systems about impending storm. c) It helps us to gain more knowledge about our planet earth. e.g. a scientific satellite known as Vanguard 1 sent back pictures, which showed that the earth was slightly pear- shaped. d) Communication satellites like the Telstra and Relay have made it possible to send television programmes and telephone calls over much longer distances. e) In 1965, the US achieved another momentous feat in space communication. The mariner4 in a deep space probe sent back pictures of mars that were taken as it passed the planet. f) Some space exploration offers possibilities without limit. Planets themselves may have metals and other resources that men on earth need. g) Information about outer space may make it possible to make rain and make long- range weather forecast more accurately than before. h) Some scientists are optimistic that space research might make it possible for human beings to settle on some planets; so far, we are not very definite about this. i) Humankind can benefit from medicine prepared under ideal conditions on the planet namely dust free and germ free medicine. j) Space exploration enhances technological development. k) It facilitates own understanding of the universe. l) It leads to improved manufacture of aircrafts, telescope and related machines. m) Contributed to development of advanced air force weapons. **Advances in transportation** Africas first high speed train system, the Gautrain, was officially lanced in Johannesburg on 8th June 2010 to connect the cities of Johannesburg and Pretoria with a 160 km/h rail service. **Effects of modern forms of transport** a) It has made local and international trade more efficient. Trade in perishable goods such as flowers and vegetables have been expanded thanks to air transport. b) Population migration and settlement all over the world has been encouraged using the means of transport. c) It has facilitated the quick transfer of technology and ideas as people interact d) It has made industries more efficient. Raw materials, industrial workers, and manufacturedgoods are transported to their destinations cheaply and quickly. e) It has promoted tourist industry which is a major foreign exchange earner in many countries. Accessibility to tourist attraction sites has greatly improved. f) It has generated employment opportunities to many as road constructers, drivers, pilots and mechanics. g) It contributes additional revenue to the government. Countries charge toll fee, license fee and fuel levy. h) Air transport enhances space exploration. i) Has contributed to the growth of the service sector like banking and insurance. j) Transport has promoted humanitarian assistance particularly in disaster situations, e.g distribution of relief food, medical services and evacuations during catastrophes and wars. k) It has led to growth of schools and hospitals and social amenities. In Kenya most schools and hospitals are located along transport routes. l) It has led to agricultural development. Farmers have been able to increase food production since they can transport farm produce and inputs more efficiently and effectively. m) It has stimulated the growth of urban centres. Towns such as London, Nairobi and Harare started off due to their location along transport rous. The towns have also grown due to their transport function. n) Transport has enhanced political control in countries. National security has been enhanced due to accessibility of many areas of a nation. o) Transport facilitated colonization of Africa and Asian countries. Railway systems helped them to conquer and suppress local resistances to facilitate easy administration. **Negative effects of transport.** a) Transport systems are responsible for many accidents in world leading to loss of lives. The Mtongwe ferry accident in Kenya claimed 257 lives in 1994; a plane crash in Ngong in 2012 killed the minister for internal security professor George Saitoti and six others. b) Transport is responsible for environmental pollution. Different forms of transport emit poisonous gases to the atmosphere. Oil tankers cause oil spills in the sea s leading to marine pollution. c) Unless they complement each other, different forms of transport are unreliable. For example, water and railway transport have to be complemented by road transport. d) The growth of international terrorism has been attributed to transport network. Communication **Definition** This is a Two-way process of reaching mutual understanding, in which participants not only exchange information but also create and share ideas and messages.Communication includes writing, talking and Non-verbal communication (facial expressions, body posture, or gestures. **Traditional forms of communication.** The methods of communication that were used in the traditional society included; **Gestures** These are signals or body movements intended to pass a message. The person to whom the gesture is directed must know the meaning of the gesture. It is sometimes referred to as sign language.(a combination of gestures that simulate actions or a sound) **Body language** Sometimes gestures are used to enhance and emphasize speech. They are used where silence is required yet communication is vital like in operating theatres, and in traffic control. **Verbal communication-language** This is the commonest form of communication among human beings involving the use of sound (spoken language) in combination with some gestures or alone, to express messages.There are over 6000 distinct languages world today. **Signals** The use plants on the roadsides, the shaving of hair, physical marks on ones body or property are means through which communication is passed to others. **Fire and smoke signals** Fire and smoke signals were used to send quick and urgent messages. Fire and smoke signals were coded such that strangers could not interpret the message correctly. They were commonly used in warning people of an impending danger.The Jews used fire signals (torch light) to proclaim their feast days on mount Olives.Fire and smoke signals were always sent at night. **Advantages of using fire and smoke signals** a) Fire and smoke signals Conveyed messages faster than a messenger. b) Confidentiality of messages was upheld since the messages were coded and could not be interpreted by strangers. c) It was a cheap method of passing a message. **Disadvantages of fire and smoke signals** a) Messages could not be sent over long distances. b) Ranges of messages passed were limited. c) It was restricted by weather conditions/smoke is useless in cloudy and misty days. It is difficult to set fire in wet conditions. Smoke could be blown by wind. d) It was of little use if no one was on the look out to see and interpret. **Drumbeats** In drumbeating as a means of communication, each beat was coded for relaying different messages. For example there were different beats for ceremonies, announcing funerals, meetings, declaration of war, arrival of strangers and impending attack.Once the initial beat was heard, the other drummers could pick up the beat in different areas thus spreading the message very quickly. **Advantages of drumbeating** a) Drumbeats could relay a wide range of messages-different beats could convey different messages. E.g. death, danger, festivities. b) In most cases drum beating could be used at any time both day and night whereas smoke signals could only be used during the day. c) Drum beats relayed specific messages whereas smoke relayed general messages. d) Drum beats could be used all seasons whereas smoke signals could not be used during certain seasons e.g. when it is raining.`` e) Drumbeats could convey messages over wide areas. f) Messages by drumbeat were conveyed faster compared to smoke signals. The major disadvantage of drumbeats was that at times it was difficult to differentiate the beats and therefore, the message could not be clearly interpreted thus leading to confusion. **Horn blowing** They were used to make public announcements, summon warriors or invite people to an important meeting. This was done by specialists with different tones that passed different messages thus passing a wide range of massages. **Screams and cries** Screaming was effective mostly on hill or mountain tops because of echoing. There were different ways of screaming in different situations.. Ululations signified feasting or good news like child birth. **Running messengers** Sometimes there was use of trust worthy runners for very personal and urgent messages. However the accuracy of the message delivered depended on the memory of the messenger. An Athenian soldier, Phidippides, is remembered in history as a great messenger for covering great distance from Marathon to Athens. Unfortunately, he dropped dead shortly after arrival. The Marathon race is named in his honour. Messengers are still used to deliver messages today although there has been tremendous improvement after invention of writing. **Disadvantages of using messengers** a) Messages could not reach recipients on time since the messengers walked on foot to their destinations. b) Messengers sometimes forgot the message they were to deliver thus leading to inaccurate messages being passed. c) Information could be distorted in the process. Sometimes wrong messages were delivered. d) Messengers could be attacked on the way by wild animals. e) The distance to be covered by messengers was limited since they walked on foot. However this problem was overcome with improvements in forms of transport. **Written messages** The oldest record of writing date back to about 5000years. Different communities use different symbols and alphabets to write messages. The messages were recorded on scrolls, stone tablets parchment (dried animal skin) or paper.The earliest forms of wring were pictographic and ideographic. Examples of these were the cuneiform of Sumerians and Hieroglyphics of the Egyptians. **Cuneiform Writing** Wedge-Shaped Writing **Scrolls** Scrolls are rolls of paper which were rolled around rods of wood or ivory for writing on. They were commonly used among the Egyptians, Romans, Asians, Jews, Greek, Hebrews, Chinese and Japanese. Papyrus Reeds along the Nile were used for making writing material. Pens and brushes were also made from the reeds and the hard part of a feather.The Hebrews used scrolls for their sacred writings. **Stone Tablets.** The Sumerians wrote on clay tablets. Writing was done on wet clay which, after drying, hardened like a stone and left a permanent impression.. for example, Hammurabi the law giver wrote his laws on stone pillars for all to read and obey. The Ten Commandments were also written on stone tablets.On the left is a stela, which has all 282 of Hammurabis laws engraved on it. This stela is located in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. These tablets have been discovered by archaeologists and looked at by historians. **Advantages of written messages** a) They provided reliable information that was not easily forgotten. b) Information was stored in that form for future reference. c) Information could be interpreted into different languages so that it could be accessible to many. d) The message in most cases was accurate. **Limitations** a) They were only limited to literate people. b) At times the information could be biased depending on the writers orientation. c) Written messages were open to misinterpretation. **Modern means of communication** Numerous modes of communication have been evolved over time since the time primitive speech was the main means of communication. The modern means of communication include telephone, radio, television, video, cinema, telegraph, telex, electronic mail. Pager etc.The methods are categorized into telecommunications and print media. **Telecommunications** This is a term that describes the technology of receiving and sending messages by telephone, radio, television, telegraph, telex, facsimile or e-mail. The message can be verbal, written or pictorial.There are a wide range of devices in telecommunication through which messages can be sent in a variety of ways. For example, Telephone. This a communication device which is used to relay sound waves by converting them into electrical signals and then reconverting them into sound waves. Telephones carry sound over a distance using electric current. The history of the invention of telephones starts with the success of a Scottish-born American inventor, teaching speech to deaf children in Boston Massachusetts, Alexander Graham Bell, who built an experimental telegraph which broke down after one day. Bell constructed a transmitter and a receiver for which he received a patent on March 7, 1876. Assisted by Thomas Watson, he discovered that voice can be sent using wires.Later, Almon Brown Strowger of Kansas City, Missouri, invented the first automatic telephone exchange using electromagnetic switchboard (Strowger Switches) in 1897. By 1900, long distance service was possible through the use of repeaters (electromagnetic devices placed along the route of the call) which amplified and repeated conversations into the long distance instrument. Radio transmission later replaced underground and submarine cables for long distance transmission.In 1877, Graham Bell opened the Bell Telephone Company. In 1900, it was sold t o the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T) In Kenya, telephone communication was introduced in 1908 and has grown tremendously **Cell phones** A cellular telephony is a type of wireless communication which uses many base stations to divide a service area into multiple cells.The concept of cellular phones began in 1947 when researchers looked at the crude mobile car phones and realized that by using small cells with frequency reuse, they could increase the traffic capacity of mobile phones Dr Martin Cooper, a former general manager of the systems division at Motorola is considered the inventor of the first modern portable handset. Which he used for the first time in April 1973.The development of mobile telephony technology was slow in the earlier periods due to the hindrance by the strict federal regulations in USA and Europe. In 1921, the USA mobile Radio began to operate.In June 1946, the first American Commercial mobile radio telephone service was introduced in Saint Louis, Missouri.By 1950s, the first telephone equipped cars took to the roads in Stockholm.In 1964, the Bell system introduced the mobile telephone service. By 1982, commercial cellular phones were being used in the USA and Tokyo in Japan. By 1987, USA had over 1million cellular telephone subscribers.Currently, there are many mobile manufacturing companies are now in operation. For example, Nokia, Motorola Inc., Sony, Alcatel, Samsung, Sagem, Siemens, AG, and Sony Ericsson.There are also a number of mobile phone service providers. In Kenya, the main ones are Safaricom, Airtel, Orange and Yu **Standard Features of cellphones** a) They are used for making and receiving calls. b) All have a personal phone book. c) They all have the ability to send and receive SMS. d) They have the ability to store messages and display and record the telephone number of a caller. The following features are not standard and vary from phone to phone. a) Calculator, clock and calendar. b) Access to the internet c) Digital camera capability d) A variety of ringtones **Limitations of cell phones** a) They may be prone to poor reception especially where they are reliant on internal antennas. b) Their use is dependent on the availability of electricity. The phone must be recharged after a number of days. In areas where accessibility to electricity is a problem, mobile phones may not be so much in use. c) The continuous use of mobile phones has raised fears of possible side effects of radioactive rays on human beings. d) Handsets are easily stolen due to their small size. **Television** The a public broadcasting medium that uses a point to multipoint technology to broadcast to any use within the range of the transmitter. In 1855, the idea of a television was perceived but only came into use in 1922 when a Scot, Loggie Baird, showed how moving images could be transmitted by electromagnetic waves.In 1931, the cathode ray tube (CRT) was invented in USA. The CRT transforms beams of electrons into visible images on the screen. This led to development of modern television.The first television broadcasting service was launched in 1936 by BBC.I 1942, Baird invented the colour transmission.In Kenya, broadcast television began after a television station was opened in 1970. This was the Voice of Kenya. Kenya was connected to worldwide television via Longonont Satellite Station in1972. In 1990, KTN, the second channel was introduced in Kenya **Cable Television** Cable television, a commercial service that links televisions to a source of many different types of video programming using Coaxial cables, was introduced in Kenya in 1994. The television users with personal satellite dishes can access satellite programming directly without a cable installation.Recently, the digital television (DTV) was invented. This is the transmission of audio and video of digital signals, in contrast to analog signals Television is an important means of communication since it is an audio-visual device. **Its importance can be summarized as follows;** a) It conveys news and information from all over the world more vividly than other means of communication such as radio. b) It is a source of entertainment as it shows music and drama programmes. c) It is a device that may be used in educational broadcasting. Some educational programmes are broadcast on television. For example, programmes that sensitize people on HIV and AIDS pandemic. d) It is used in commercial advertisement by manufacturers and companies thus enabling them to sell their products. e) It is the best means of transmitting ideas since it commands attention. f) It is a source of employment in the television stations. g) Television has enabled humankind to bridge the gap of real-time communication between different time zones in the world. **Disadvantages.** a) TV can only be viewed where there is electricity. It is expensive to install solar panels in areas where there is no electricity. The car batteries that may be used require constant charging. b) Pornographic programmes have eroded cultural values, especially among the youth. Such programmes originate in the west and the youth want to imitate what they see. c) Watching violent programmes has created the culture of violence among the youth. For example, watching of wrestling and violent movies. d) Some advertisements encourage deviant behavior. For example, advertisements of alcohol and cigarettes. e) Watching television can sometimes become addictive in some homes thus limiting the time to participate in other activities. **Radio.** The invention of the radio was a significant development in the electronics industry. In 1864, an English mathematical physicist, clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) suggested that there was the existence of waves.In 1888, a German, Heinrich Rudolph Hertz, (1857-94) demonstrated the existence of electromagnetic waves (vibrations) that travel through space, which were named after him. These waves could be used in wireless communications. In 1901, an Italian, Guglielmo Marconi (1874-1937) invented the radio and sent a radio transmission across the Atlantic from poldhu in Cornwall to Saint John, Newfoundland, Canada.The radio gained prominence during the World War I as it was used to communicate.The Marconi Company made the first radio broadcast in Britain in 1920.The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) was set up in London in 1922.Kenyas Radio Broadcasts before independence depended on the BBC. The VOK began to air programmes after independence. In 1990, VOK changed its name o KBC. In 1995, the FM meter Band was launched thus leading to an increase in radio stations **Importance of radio** a) Radio is easy to access since people can afford to buy the device. b) News and information from the radio is quickly received throughout the country c) It can also be accessed by the illiterate people who can listen and understand the radio news if broadcast in the language they can understand. d) Radio is used to enhance communication in transport systems like motor vehicles, railway, ships and airplanes. e) Radios are sometimes used to broadcast educational programmes and important government communications on issues like health, agriculture and family planning. f) The radio is a source of entertainment. E.g through Music and drama programmes. g) Radio can be used by manufacturers and companies to advertise their products thus stimulating business. h) Radio communication has enhanced space exploration. Radio signals are used to communicate with space vehicles. **Telegraph** This is a device or process by which messages are passed over a distance, especially using radio signals or coded electrical signals.Telegraph messages are sent by a code in which numbers, letters and punctuation marks are represented by a combination of dashes and dots.The earliest code to be used was the Morse code which evolved into the international Morsecode.A message sent by a telegraph was called a telegram. Radio invention made it possible for wireless telegraphy.Samuel Morse (1791-1892) is credited for the invention of the electric telegraph. In 1837, Morse made the first crude telegraph and by 1844, he successfully sent a telegraph over line.By 1845, the first public telegraph was operating between Washington and Baltimore.In 1851, the first telegraph cable was laid under the English Channel between London and Paris.In 1866, the Trans- Atlantic cable was established.In 1872, most cities in the world were linked by telegraph. **Disadvantage.** ~ Communication through the telegraph could be rendered unreliable where accidents and poor weather could cut telegraph cables. **Internet.** This is a computer-based global communication network system that links thousands of computers using telephone lines. Currently Mobile phones are also used in internet communication.Internet forms one of the inexpensive and fastest communication means in the world today which has gained popularity..Internet was introduced in the 1970s. Currently there are over 4000 million users of internet in the world today with its popularity being manifested in the social media networks like facebook, Twitter. **Results of internet.** a) Education has been developed since research can be done on the internet. b) E-commerce can be done on the internet hence enhancing the sale of goods and services. c) The running of government operations can be done on the internet since the government may use it for internal communication, distribution of information and automated tax processing. d) Internet has led to expansion of Business as people use it to interact with other business people. e) Individuals use the internet to communicate through e-mail or other social network platforms such as facebook, Twitter, Skype, etc.Electronic Mail. (E-mail)This kind of communication is also reliant on internet. The communication is done using either computer or mobile phones with the help of a modem. E-mails first came into widespread use in 1990s and has today become a major contributor to business development. It has taken the lead ahead of telephone, fax, radio and television in communication. **Facsimile transreceiver (fax)** This is a method of transmitting text over telephone network. A written, printed or pictorial document is scanned then sent and reproduced photographically at the destination. The message /picture is transmitted within 30 seconds. The Fax machine was developed by a german named Arthur Korn in 1902 and was commercialized in 1926. **Telex** This is system of direct dial teleprinter which uses a keyboard to transmit typed text over telephone lines to similar terminals **Satellites** A Satellite is a spacecraft or an artificial device orbiting the earth, moon or another planet, transmitting back to earth scientific information. It is launched at a velocity of at least 28,960 km per hour (escape velocity) to enable it overcome gravitational pull of the earth and thus remain in space.In 1680, a British Scientist, Isaac Newton, introduced the idea of artificial satellites.The first message to be transmitted by satellite was the Christmas greeting by President Dwight D Eisenhower of the USA in 1958.In 1969, the first television pictures were relayed around the earth by satellites from Apollo II astronauts. In October 1957, USSR sent sputnik I, the first satellite into the orbit. In the same year, the first living passenger, a little dog called Laika, was carried into space by a satellite.In 1961, a Russian Yuri Gagarin went into space on board of a satellite.In 1969, an American, Neil Armstrong, in his spacecraft Apollo I, landed on the moon.In 1981, the US released the first space shuttle which is manned, airplane like craft which orbits the earth.In 1983, Challenger, the space shuttle, released a satellite into space. In 1986, an accident occurred on the space shuttle, Challenger, killing seven Astronauts **Pagers/beepers** These are portable communication message devices. In using it, the person sending the message uses a phone and calls a pager number. The impact of telecommunications today. a) Telecommunication has revolutionized communication through enabling faster and easier communication between individuals. This has increased interaction and therefore international understanding. b) Telecommunication has enhanced information management e.g the use of computers for information storage and processing and the internet in communication. c) Telecommunication devices are also sources of entertainment. Radios and television broadcast music and movies to entertain people. d) Telecommunication systems like television bring reality to the viewers by transmitting live pictures. e) Telecommunication devices enhance cultural exchange and understanding through showing programmes from other countries. This helps people to appreciate other peoples culture and even enrich their own. f) Telecommunication systems have promoted water and air transport. Ships at sea and airplanes use these devices to send signals to guide captains and pilots. g) Telecommunication systems have made world trade and businesses more effective and efficient. People can quickly place orders for goods and get news of world markets and commodity prices. h) Telecommunications has enabled organizations, government institutions and individuals to access information and programmes at their convenience. This has led to effective management and good governance. i) Countries have also improved their security systems by using radio and radio calls and mobile tracking systems to combat crimes. j) Modern war fare has been revolutionized. Modern weapons depend on telecommunication services that provide accurate and reliable information. For example, satellites are used to guide missiles. k) Remote areas are no longer inaccessible thanks to telecommunications. People can communicate using cell phones even from the most remote areas of a country. l) Telecommunication systems have promoted space exploration. Man has been able to send spacecraft to the moon, mars and Venus using communication satellites. m) Telecommunication is a source of employment in many countries. Many people offer services, operate systems and maintain them. n) Governments earn revenue from telecommunication systems. This revenue promotes economic development. For example taxes collected from licensing of service operators, manufacturers of telecommunication systems etc. **Negative attributes to telecommunication**. a) Telecommunication has promoted international social crimes such as fraud, drug trafficking and terrorism. b) Some forms of telecommunication promote immorality among children and the youth in the world through watching of pornographic materials. c) Some telecommunication devices cannot be accessed by many people due to the expense of acquisition and installation. d) Telecommunication devices have an addictive effect for many users. This affects speed of development in developing countries AS people sit for long hours watching television instead of engaging in productive activities. e) Mobile phone users risk suffering from effects of the constant exposure to radioactive rays which may cause certain types of cancer. **Print media** This refers to all that is printed or written down and published. For example, journals, books, newspapers, magazines etc. **Newspapers** It is an unbound publication produced at regular intervals and devoted primarily to current events and advertisements. Before printing was invented, the oldest newspaper, The Siloam Inscription,(a stone on which news were recorded) was in circulation among the people of Mesopotamia at around 700 BC.The Chinese court journal, Tsing Pao, published in Peking in AD 500 was another early form of newspaper.The Roman Bulletin, Acta Diurna, used by Emperor Julius Ceaser from 60BC to post government daily announcements was also an early form of newspaper.Printing was invented by a german, Johannes Gutenberg, in the 15th century. The first publication, Strasbourg Relations, was published in 1609The London Daily Post also known as the Public Advertiser was published by Henry Woodfall and his son Sampson Woodfall in 18th c. The London Times was first published as the Daily Universal Register by John Walter in 1785. It changed its name to Times in 1788.In 1900, C Arthur founded the Daily Express. The first newspaper in Kenya was the African Standard founded by Alibhai Mullas Jeevanjee, in Mombasa in 1902. It later changed its name to the east African standard in 1905. And moved its operations from Mombasa to Nairobi in 1910.in 1928, Jomo Kenyatta published a local newspaper in Kikuyu, Muigwithania aimed at spreading the views of the Kikuyu central Association and promote kikuyu culture.The Daily Nation was established by the Aga Khan in 1960In 1983, the Kenya Times was founded by Hilary Ngweno and later bought by KANU and owned jointly with a Briton Robert Maxwel **Types of Newspapers**. ***Daily Newspapers*** These print atleast one edition every weekday. Some print morning and evening edition when necessary. Examples of daily newspapers include the Daily Nation, The standard, the Toronto Star and The Los Angeles Times. ***Weekly Newspapers*** These are published once a week. They contain news of interest to people in a smaller area, maybe a city or a neighborhood. For example the east African in Kenya and the weekly Telegraph in Britain. ***Special interest Newspapers*** They concentrate on news of special interest to a particular group for example an ethnic community, a corporation or a trade organization. They can be daily, weekly or monthly. ***Periodicals*** These are publications released at regular intervals and containing news, feature articles, poems, fictional stories etc. they also contain photographs and drawings. Periodicals aimed at general audience are called magazines.Periodicals differ from newspapers in that whereas newspapers deal with sometimes daily news and are unbound, periodicals like magazines and journals focus on more specialized material and deal with news in form of summaries or commentaries. They are printer on finer paper with smaller bound pages and issued at a longer interval than a day when compared to newspapers. ***Magazines*** These are periodical publications with specialized information on particular issues. They are published fortnightly, weekly or monthly.The oldest magazine is Eileens Oxford Gazette published in 1665, later became the London Gazette.The first periodical to use the word magazine in its Title was the Gentleman Magazine published in 1731 in Britain. The oldest magazine in Kenya is the Kenya Official Gazette (1900-1963), renamed the Kenya Gazette after independence. Other were the Leader of the British East African Company, Wathiomo Mukinyu by Consolata Catholic Missionaries in Nyeri, Tangaza by Harry Thuku, the East African Chronicles and the Colonial times by the Asian Journals These are periodicals with a narrower target audience such as scholarly publication. They specialize in particular themes or professions. For example the Review of Political Economy, Canadian Journal of African Affairs, the East African Journal of Social Sciences and the East African Medical Journal. **DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRIES** Industry is defined as the skill of making other products from raw materials. It involves extraction and processing into finished products of raw materials **Early Sources of Energy.** Energy is the ability to do work. The following are the early sources of energy that can be identified. **Wood.** Wood developed as a source of energy after the discovery of fire. It was used as follows; a) Making fire which provides heat to warm people during cold seasons lighting, to cook roots and roast meat, for hunting(bushfires), tool-making to harden tips, means of communication, food preservation b) Charcoal made from wood fuel provided heat that was used for steaming water to provide steam power for steam engines during the industrial revolution. This is a form of energy still in use today since it is cheaper and easily available. **Wind**. Wind was used to drive sailing ships during the trade between East African Coast and the Far East.Windmills were used in China to grind grain and process foods They were also used to pump water from polders in Netherlands.Windmills are also used to generate electricity. Windmills are mainly used in areas with fewer trees like in Isiolo, Garissa, Wajir and Mandera.However the use of wind as a source of energy is disadvantaged by its being irregular and inconsistent in direction and strength. **Water.** Water has been harnessed to produce HEP. Water was used to turn wooden propellers (water wheels) which in turn turned grindstones to grind grains into flour.In England, it was used in the Textile and paper industry to turn spinning machines.In Italy water- powered machines were used to make copper pots, weapons of war, to spin silk and to sharpen various tools. Water also is not reliable as a source of energy since the levels may be too low during dry weather for HEP production. **Uses of metals in Africa** The age of metals in Africa is divided into the Bronze and Iron Age. Man moved from the Stone Age to the age of metals because metals had the following advantages; a) Metallic tools were more durable. They could not break easily. b) Cutting edges of metals could be sharpened. c) Malleable Metals could be heated and reworked into deferent usable designs when need arose d) Metals are not prone to waste. Broken pieces can be smelted and reworked into useful items. For example a broken spear into an arrow. The following are examples of metals that were used in Africa. **Gold** This was the first metal to be used by humankind. It was used in Meroe, Egypt, Wangara in Ghana and in Central Africa. Gold is malleable and therefore it could be easily moulded into the desired shape without smelting it. Its softness however implied that tools made from gold could bend easily. It was also heavy and could not be found everywhere. **Uses of Gold** a) It was used to make ornaments and decorations. In Egypt, it was used to make jewellery like rings, bangles and bracelets. b) It was used to make utensils, such as plates, vases and drinking vessels. c) It was used to make swords and flint knife handles among the rich in Egypt. d) It was used to make coins in Egypt. e) It was used as a trade item in East, central and West Africa f) It was used to make weapons such as sword and knife blades. g) Gold was also a measure of wealth in Egypt. **Copper** Though quite soft, copper as harder than Gold and could make better tools. The Egyptians were the earliest people to use copper by 3000 BC.The metal could further be hardened by mixing it with other metals to form alloys during smelting. **Uses of copper** a) Making utensils and containers such as pots and pans. b) The Egyptians used copper to make axes, tools, Chisels, Pins and fish hooks. c) It was used to make ornamental bangles, rings, helmets, needles, wire chains and statues. d) It was used as a medium of exchange in the form of copper bars. e) It was used to make daggers (weapons). f) It was used as a trade commodity. Those with copper exchanged it with other goods that they did not have. g) It was used to make alloys like Bronze and Brass. ***Bronze.*** Bronze is a mixture of copper and tin which makes it harder than copper. It was used during the Bronze Age. In Africa Bronze was used among the Yoruba, Dahomey and Asante in Nigeria and in Benin. And also in Egypt. Benin was the centre of Bronze. **Uses of Bronze.** a) Making stronger weapons such as shields, spears, arrowheads, swords and daggers. b) Making sculptures and decorations. For example, in Benin it was used to make objects for religious ceremonies, masks and decorating the kings palace. It decorated temples, palaces and pyramids in Egypt. c) Making knives, containers, pans and vases. d) It was a store of wealth. e) It was used to make tools, shields and chariots. **Disadvantages of Bronze.** a) The tools lost their sharpness and became blunt quickly since the metal was relatively soft. They required constant sharpening. b) Bronze was not cheap. The mixture of copper and yin had to be acquired through trade thus making bronze expensive. c) It was difficult to get an appropriate proportion of each of the two metals. Iron. **Two theories that explain the origin and spread of iron working in Africa are**; 1) It was first introduced in North Africa from the Middle East by the Phoenicians and the Assyrians, and then spread to west, East Central and South Africa. 2) The art of iron working probably developed independently in Africa as evidenced by the Archaeological evidence in Buhaya (the oldest Iron Age site that existed between 5th and 6th C AD ) , North West of Tanzania. The Buhaya iron is associated with the pottery style known as Urewe-ware. The Hittites were the first people to smelt and use iron in around 1500BC. The skill then spread to the Assyrians. The idea then spread to Africa between 400 and 500 BC and became widespread in the Nile Valley.By 5th c it had spread upto Meroe (the Birmingham of Africa) then to Ethiopia. From Carthage and Tunisia, it spread to West Africa, at Taruga in Nigerias Jos plateau at around 580BC, then to Lake Chad by 500 AD **Ways in which the iron culture spread in Africa**. 1) Through wars of conquest e.g. Egypt versus Assyrians where the Assyrians forced the Egyptians to learn to use iron from Meroe to make strong weapons. 2) Trade e.g. the Mesopotamians traded with Africans. The North African then traded with the West Africans, thus spreading the iron smelting technology across the Sahara. 3) Intermarriages e.g. Arabs and Africans intermarried and hence a new iron culture and technology developed. 4) Through learning and acquiring the technology from neighbors. 5) Increased demand for iron tools for agriculture, weapons and iron products increased trade in iron. 6) Migrations. E.g in east Africa where the Bantus and nilotes arrived from West African region with the iron culture which they introduced to east Africa. 7) Travelers and messengers who gave out and received the gifts of iron **Uses of Iron** a) It was used as medium of exchange. Iron bars were used as currency. b) To make agricultural tools such as hoes and pangas this increased food production. c) Weapons such as spears and arrows were made of iron, which strengthened some communities while others who lacked the same were easily defeated. d) Iron was used as a trade item where those who did not have it acquired it through barter trade. e) It was used for storing wealth. Smithers used iron bars as a measure of value. **Effects of iron working** a) It promoted empire building. Many kingdoms and empires relied on strong iron, weapons to fight expansionist wars e.g. Egypt, Benin and Mwene Mutapa empires. b) It led to migrations especially of the Bantus who war able to protect themselves during the journeys using iron weapons. c) It promoted agriculture since large tracts of land could now be used to produce more food using stronger tools. d) Adequate food resulted in population increase and later migration to areas with sparse population. e) It resulted in specialization and division of labour as some people became iron smelters while others engaged in other activities like trade. f) It stimulated construction and building works using stronger metals like iron. Better houses, temples and bridges were built. g) Metal technology also had an impact on religion in that metals began to be used when performing religious rites and in royal palaces e.g. the golden stool among the Asante. h) Trading and industrial towns developed within and around the major mining centres like Meroe Axum, in Ghana, in Zimbabwe and in Benin. i) Trade was promoted in that sometimes iron was used as currency and others became important items of long distance and regional trade. **INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION IN EUROPE**. The Industrial Revolution was a period from 1750 to 1850 where changes in agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transportation, and technology had a profound effect on the social, economic and cultural conditions of the times. It began in the United Kingdom, and then subsequently spread throughout Western Europe, Northern America, Japan, and eventually the rest of the world.The industrial revolution in Europe occurred in two phases;The old phase was from 175-1850 and began in Britain and spread to other European countries like France (1825), Germany (1840), Belgium (1870) and Russia (1890). In USA, it began after the American civil war of 1861 to 1865. In Japan it began in 1900. In Kenya, it is hoped to be done by 2030. **Characteristics of industrial revolution in Europe** a) The use of machines to replace human and animal labour. b) The use of steam power as a new source of energy to replace water, wind and animal power. c) Increased exploitation and use of coal, iron and steel. d) The rise of the factory system in owns instead of the cottage industries in homes. e) The development of better forms of transport including the use of railways, roads and water. f) Improved living standards and an increase in the human population who required more manufactured goods. g) The production of goods on large scale. Machines worked faster than human labour. h) The development of science and the application of scientific knowledge in production. i) There was development of trade as manufactured goods were sold locally and abroad. j) The rise of modern capitalism that provided enough wealth which was then invested back into industry. k) The growth of trade Union Movements to carter for the rights of industrial workers. **Uses of Various Sources of Energy** **Coal** This is a compact black or dark brown, carbonaceous rock which is a fuel and source of coke, coal gas and coal tar.Abraham Darby invented the process by which coal was turned into coke in 1709 thus discovered that coal produced immense heat. Coke was used to smelt iron. **Uses of coal** a) To heat water to high temperatures so as to produce steam. b) To provide lighting. c) To drive steam engines in factories. Some generators depended on coal heat to produce steam. d) To drive locomotives. This promoted transport. e) It was a raw material in the manufacturing of dye and pharmaceutical products. **Disadvantages of Coal** a) It is bulky and transporting it is difficult. b) It produced too much smoke when used in locomotives. Also gases released during the burning of coal e.g sulphur dioxide polluted the air and caused acid rain. c) Coal was expensive to mine and to transport to the required destination. d) Coal mining was risky to miners who often lost their lives when mines collapsed and buried them. **Petroleum.(often referred to as oil)** Before 1850, oil was known to American farmers as a substance that affected food production in farms. It was an American Don, Bissel who carried out an analysis of oil samples at a university lab and established that oil was both a fuel and lubricant. The use of oil became widespread with the invention of the internal combustion engine by Gotlieb Daimler. **Uses of oil.** a) To power vehicles, aeroplanes and ships b) To generate electricity used in lighting and cooking. c) To run engines in industries d) Tar (Bitumen), a by-product of petroleum is used to tarmac roads. e) Greasing of metals in industries was also done by petroleum by-products such as grease. f) Certain petroleum chemicals are used in making of drugs, fertilizers, synthetic fibre and plastics. **Disadvantages of oil** a) For countries importing oil, it is expensive to transport. b) Prospecting for oil is quite expensive. c) Oil may also affect the environment, since extracting large quantities of petroleum may cause land to sink. **Steam.** Steam is boiling water turned into gas. It was used for first time around 100 AD in a steampowered engine developed by a Greek scientist called Hero.In the 16th century, Thomas Savery, a Briton, built a steam engine which could pump water out of a coal mine.In 1712, Thomas Newcomen improved Saverys design, though he design was still ineffective.In 1764, James Watt improved on Newcomens engine to make it more effective and by 1800, 320 of Watts engines were in use in Britain.In 1801, Richard Trevithick installed one of Watts engines in a road vehicle. Three years later, he produced a steam-driven locomotive that ran on rails.In 1830, George Stephenson improved on Trevithicks work and invented the first steam locomotive, the rocket. In all these engines, coal was used to produce steam. **Uses of steam** a) It was used to drive heavy machinery in factories and to turn turbines that generated power for industrial use, e.g driving, spinning and weaving machines. b) It was used for pumping water out of coal mines. c) It was used in steam powered locomotives and ships. d) The massive temple doors in Egypt were only opened using steam. **Electricity** Electricity was discovered by an English Scientist called Michael Faraday (1791-1861) in 1831 when he invented the electric Dynamo.His principal of electromagnetic induction was the beginning of both the dynamo and the electric Motor. The energy used energy from coal, oil, steam or water to produce electricity. The use of electricity became widespread from 1900. **Uses of electricity** a) Lighting. b) Heating and cooking. c) Powering machines in factories. d) Communication. Electric signals are used in communication gadgets. e) Powering transport vehicles such as electric trains and electric cars. **Disadvantages of electricity** a) It can be dangerous if not properly installed or used. b) The generation and distribution of electricity is very expensive thus making its use limited to fewer people in developing countries. **Other sources of energy** **Atomic energy** In 1896, A French physicist, Antoine Henri Beckquerel (1852 -1903), discovered that uranium produces radiation or energy in waves. (Radioactivity). This was the birth of the development of Atomic energy.In 1938, Hahn and Stressman discovered the process of Atomic fusion which leads to production of Atomic energy.In 1942, a group of scientists led by Enrico-Fermi at the university of Chicago, USA, built the first Nuclear research Station which resulted in the invention of the nuclear reactor and later the discovery of an Atomic Bomb like one which was used Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.In Belgium and France, 60% of the electricity is produced from atomic power. However, atomic energy when used in war can be very fatal.Radioactivity also endangers both animal and plant life.Polluted air, where radioactivity has taken place causes fever, diarrhea and death. For example the radioaction accident in 1985 at Three Mile Island in the USA and at Chernobyl near Kiev in Ukraine in 1986 had fatal consequences. **Solar Energy.** It is obtained directly from the sun and is used to dry firewood, clothes and to cook food. In 1714, Antoine Lavoisier made a solar furnace which could melt metals.An engine using solar power was used to run a printing press in Paris in 1880.The use of solar water heaters was widespread in USA by 1900.In 1954, the first solar cell which turned sunlight into electricity was made. The energy was then used to heat water and generate electricity. **Uses of Solar energy.** a) Drying agricultural products. b) Distilling of salty water to get salt crystals. c) Heating water in homes and industry d) Heating and lighting buildings e) Cooking using solar cookers f) Irrigating using solar water pumps, g) Powering satellites in space. **Advantages of solar energy** a) It is clean and is available in places where sunlight is readily available. b) It is natural and therefore free, non-pollutant and inexhaustible source of energy. **Iron and steel** Iron was not really a source of energy but the industrial revolution was dependant on the availability of iron **Uses of iron** a) Production of machines for textile industry. Water pipes and ploughs were made of iron. b) Production of steam engines. c) Building of trains, railway lines ships, wheels, bridges and coach frames.In an attempt to overcome the disadvantages of iron (it was too heavy and could rust easily), in 1856, an Englishman, Henry Bessemer produced steel out of Iron and Carbon. (Steel is an alloy of iron and Carbon and is lighter, flexible, stronger and harder than iron).Stainless steel, commonly used in cutlery is an alloy of Steel and Chromium. **Uses of steel** a) The construction of rail lines, bridges, cars and ships. b) The manufacturing of machinery especially in the agricultural and industrial sector. c) Reinforcement of concrete in buildings and roofing houses. d) Making of containers and utensils. **INDUSTRIALIZATION IN BRITAIN** This change, which occurred between 1750 and 1830, happened because conditions were perfect in Britain for the Industrial Revolution. The transformation was facilitated by the following factors; a) Availability of coal and iron ore which served as a basis for heavy industries. Coal was a source of energy for use in the industries. Iron was used in the manufacture of machinery. b) The agrarian revolution ensured that important raw materials were available for the industries and also made food more available for the many factory centres c) Existence of a large population which provided steady internal market for the manufactured goods/domestic local markets. There was also Availability of external markets in her colonies for the industrial produce. d) Existence of cottage industries which acted as a base for industrial take-off in Britain. It was easier to turn to mass production of goods on the basis of the small scale production in cottage industries. e) Due to the enclosure act, many peasants became available to offer unskilled labour especially following their displacement from the rural areas. f) Political stability and strong leadership that existed at the time created a condusive environment for investments when compared to other European countries. g) Well developed transport and communication network e.g railway, canals, bridges, harbours and roads which promoted industrialization. h) Existence of good banking and insurance systems which gave financial help and security to the industries. i) Britain had a strong navy that guarded her trade routes thus protecting her merchants from foreign competition. j) Policy of free trade encouraged industrialization/ existence of the merchant and middle class who formed pressure groups that forced the government to adopt measures favoring their industries.britain had no internal customs barrier to hurt her industrial growth. k) Availability of wealth/capital that stimulated industrial revolution. Britain had accumulated a lot of wealth from her trade with other countries and her colonies in America and Africa.e.g. The steam engine was made in Britain by a wealth Briton. l) Availability of industrial raw materials in her vast colonies. **INDUSTRIALIZATION IN CONTINENTAL EUROPE.** The Industrial Revolution on Continental Europe came a little later than in Great Britain. **Reasons why other European countries delayed in the industrialization process.** a) The political upheavals in France, Germany and Italy were responsible for the delay in the take- off of industrialization. b) The existence of a feudal economy in which the peasant farmers could not afford to buy industrial goods nor raise capital to invest in industry. c) The system of farming implied that inadequate raw materials came from the farms thus making it difficult for industrial development. d) Their system of transport was not developed. e) Unlike Britain, these countries did not have an enterprising class of people and scientists ready to take up the task of industrial investment and invention. **Factors that led to industrial development in continental Europe** a) Political stability and strong leadership that followed the unification of Italy and Germany and end of Napoleonic rule in France created a contusive environment for investments when compared to other European countries. Feudalism was also abolished. b) The agrarian revolution that had taken place in continental Europe ensured that the countries had raw materials for their industries. Other strategic raw materials like coal and iron were readily available. c) There was adequate capital from the rich traders who willingly invested in industry. Britain also gave loans to the European countries to industrialize. d) Existence of good banking and insurance systems which gave financial help and security to the industries. e) Existence of a large population which provided both skilled and unskilled labour required by the industries. f) The European governments supported the industrial ventures that were aimed at enhancing economic development. French and Germany governments gave tax concessions and subsidies to encourage industrialization. g) Existence of a steady internal and external market for the manufactured goods/there was a high European population that consumed most goods locally. h) Well developed transport and communication network e.g. better roads, railway and water transport which meant that industrial workers, raw materials and finished goods could be transported easily. i) Countries in continental Europe had vast sources of energy such as coal, steam power and electricity which enhanced industrial development. j) The development of new skills in science and technology facilitated industrial growth. Some European countries like France and Germany sent their people to Britain to acquire skills and ideas in science and also invited English technicians to their countries. **Effects of the industrial revolution in Europe** a) Creation of employment opportunities. Ordinary working people found increased opportunities for employment in the new mills and factories. b) Emergence of Factories and urbanization. Industrialization led to the creation of the factory system was largely responsible for the rise of the modern city, as large numbers of workers migrated into the cities in search of employment in the factories. c) Improved Standards of living. Living conditions and health care improved during the 19th century. The famines that troubled rural areas did not happen in industrial areas. d) Population increase. As living conditions and health care improved during the 19th century, Europes population doubled every 50 years. Infant mortality reduced. e) Local and international trade developed. Manufactured goods were sold locally while others were exported to America. The industries also created market for raw materials from Africa and Asia. f) European economies became diversified as a result of industrial growth. This led to specialization e.g. traders, bankers, mechanics and agriculturalists. g) Development and use of machinery in agriculture led to increased production h) Improvement in Transportation and technology. The expansion of business and factories expanded Canals, highways and railways were expanded. i) Large scale production of a wide range of goods. new methods of farming , such as the use of fertilizers and new crop breeds were developed j) The industrial revolution promoted development of science and technology. There was increased utilization of knowledge in production of goods as well as scientific inventions such as invention of electricity. k) The emergence of trade union movement. The Industrial Revolution concentrated labour into mills, factories and mines, thus facilitating the organization of combinations or trade unions to help advance the interests of working people. l) Eventually effective political organization for working people was achieved through the trades unions who began to support socialist political parties that later merged to become the British Labour Party. m) It led to Political corruption - the amount of money generated by the Industrial Revolution created a class of super rich who could buy any politician or process. n) Environmental damage - there were few if any rules regarding how resources could be removed and used. The air was horribly polluted from factories, as was the soil and rivers. o) There was increased exploitation of natural resources in Europe during the revolution. Iron, coal and steel production increased. p) Industrial revolution was accompanied with economic Exploitation of people. While jobs were created, sometimes the jobs were dangerous and people died. Harsh working conditions, Child labour, dirty living conditions, and long working hours were prevalent. q) Rise of unemployment. The rapid industrialization cost many craft workers their jobs. Many weavers found themselves suddenly unemployed since they could no longer compete with machines to produce cloth. r) The industrial revolution was responsible for the scramble and partition of Africa. The colonies produced raw materials for industries in Europe and also acted as markets for goods processed in Europe. For this reason, many European nations sought to have as many colonies as possible. **The scientific Revolution** Science is the systematic study of the nature and behaviour of the material and physical universe based on observation. The scientific revolution refers to the history of science in the early modern period, where sudden development in mathematics, physics, astronomy, biology, medicine and chemistry transformed views of society and nature. **Causes of scientific revolution** a) Discovery of the New World. Exploration/conquest leading to discovery of new plant/animal life. Traditional link between navigation and astronomy + great advances made by Portuguese navigators fueled an interest in learning more about the stars b) Invention of the Printing Press, allowed for rapid dissemination of scientific knowledge. Numerous books and newsletters were in circulation keeping people informed of science c) Rivalry among Nation-States. Constant warfare among nation-states pushed for scientific development by placing an importance on technology, or applied science. Powerful leaders of nation-states funded scientific development. d) Renaissance / birth of knowledge. During this period, Human interest in the classical world increased. Renaissance time made people to develop interest in research/ learning. e) The need to solve their daily life problems like shortages, disease etc. necessity is the mother of all inventions. f) Financial support for governments and individuals. Governments and individuals financed scientific research. g) Religion failed to answer all questions. This sometimes betrayed mans belief in supernatural power thus emphasizing research. **Scientific inventions**. Scientific inventions have roots in the ancient civilization in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, China and India. Early inventions were witnessed in the field of medicine, astronomy, agriculture, medicine and mathematics as follows; a) The Egyptians discovered geometry which they used on farms. They discovered dead body preservation method (mummification). Build pyramids for their pharaohs using knowledge in mathematics. b) Greeks like Pythagoras contributed to mathematics, especially the right angled triangle as early as 200BC, Euclid did some work in geometry. Archimedes discovered how the lever works. Ptolemy is remembered for geographical work especially production of the Atlas. c) The Chinese made cloth from silk and developed acupuncture skills. They invented paper making in 70 AD. They made gunpowder and the calendar. d) The Indians invented the decimal system in mathematics. e) The Muslim Arabs developed the art of architecture as evidenced by the construction of unique mosques. **Period Inventor and invention** 1473-1543 Nicolas Copernicus a polish astronomer.

He came up with the theory of electricity and invented the lightning rod. 1791 - 1867 Michael Faraday creates the electric motor, and develops an understanding of electromagnetic induction, which provides evidence that electricity and magnetism are related. In 1831, he invented the electric dynamo, a machine which produced electricity from a magnet. 1799 - 1878 Joseph Henry's research on electromagnetic induction is performed at the same time as Faraday's. He constructs the first motor; his work with electromagnets leads directly to the development of the telegraph. **Impact of scientific inventions** **Impact of scientific inventions on agriculture** a) Food production has been increased thanks to the use of farm machinery, fertilizers, pest 1831-1979 James Clerk Maxwell pointed out that acceleration of electric charges emitted electromagnetic radiation. The ideas underlying Maxwells theories of electromagnetism describe the propagation of light waves in a vacuum. 1787-1854 . In 1827, George Simon Ohm determined that the current that flows through a wire is proportional to its cross sectional area and inversely proportional to its length or Ohm's law. 1876 Nicolaus Otto, A German traveling salesman named constructed the first practical internal combustion engine; it used a four stroke cycle of a piston to draw a fuel-air mixture into a cylinder, compress it, mechanically capture energy after ignition, and expel the exhaust before beginning the cycle anew. 1847-1869 Alexander Graham Bell, In 1876, at the age of 29, invented his telephone. 1701 Tull, Jethro invented a horse-drawn seed drill. 1764 Water frame invented by Richard Arkwright - the first powered textile machine. 1888-1946 John Logie Baird is remembered as the inventor of mechanical television (an earlier version of television).

It was improved upon by William Horrocks, known for his invention of the variable speed batton in 1813. 1847 -1931 Thomas Alva Edison is Most famous for his invention of the electric incandescent light bulb. 1853 - 1937 Elihu Thomson. His experiments eventually led to the adoption of alternating current technology. 1913 Robert Adler. He is Most famous for his invention of the wireless TV remote control. 1856 -1943 Nikola Tesla is Recognized as one of the outstanding pioneers in the electric power field 1765-1825 Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin in 1794. The cotton gin is a machine that separates seeds, hulls and other unwanted materials from cotton after it has been picked. 1895 Wilhelm Rntgen discovers x rays. 1898 Marie and Pierre Curie separate radioactive elements. 1898 Joseph Thompson measures the electron, and puts forth his \"plum-pudding\" model of the atom -- that the atom is a slightly positive sphere with small, raisin -like negative electrons inside. and control methods and scientific breeding. Hybrid seeds have been developed together with new animal breeds. b) Scientific inventions have stimulated scientific research in the field of agriculture. This is done in schools, agricultural institutes and colleges. c) Farming of perishable foods has been made possible due to invention of preservation methods for foods like canning and refrigeration. d) Increased food production has led to increase in population. There is increased food security. There is also increased trade. e) Biotechnology has contributed to diversification of agriculture leading to greater crop and animal production. f) Farming has been revolutionized from small-scale subsistence farming to large scale economic activity due to mechanization on farms **Negative impacts of scientific inventions on agriculture**. a) The consumption of chemically treated and stored food has raised concern for food related disease such as cancer and heart diseases b) Use of pesticides and fertilizers sometimes poses the challenges of cost. Some pesticides are toxic and therefore harmful to humans and animals. c) Consistence use of fertilizers impoverishes the soil fertility. The more the fertilizer is used the more the soil becomes infertile. d) Traditional crops are being threatened by biotechnology and development of hybrids. **Impact of scientific inventions on industry**. a) Large quantities of goods can be produced due to scientific inventions. This has led to enjoyment of economies of scale. b) Efficient sources of energy necessary for industrial production have been developed. New forms of energy such as nuclear, solar and electricity have been invented. c) Improvements in transport and communication have stimulated industrial development. Movement of labour, raw materials and manufactured goods is efficient. d) There has been increased exploitation of resources like factories, fisheries, minerals etc as factories yearn for raw materials due to increased production. e) The large scale manufacture of goods has led to growth of trade. This in turn has created wealth for industrialized nations. f) Space exploration has been enhanced through science. Satellites are used in photographing of the earths surface and in weather research. g) Science has revolutionized military technology. Dangerous weapons have been manufactured. h) There is faster dissemination and spread of ideas or knowledge and skills due to development of printing press, and internet development. i) Industries have created job opportunities. Exploitation of mineral deposits has created employment. **Negative impact of scientific inventions on industry** a) Scientific inventions in industry have led to industrial wastes and pollutants that contribute to environmental pollution. Smoke pollutes the air, machines cause noise pollution etc. b) Human life has suffered unnecessarily due to development of war weapons and accidents on roads and aeroplanes. c) Many people have been rendered unemployed due to development of machines. Impact of scientific inventions on medicine a) Discovery of various medicines to treat both animals and human diseases has boosted both curative and preventive measures in promoting health. b) Improved nutrition has reduced the number of disease that kills man. Population has there increased as a result of reduced death rate. c) Proper diagnosis of disease is now possible with the use of x-rays and other modern scientific methods. With accurate diagnosis, proper treatment can be given. d) The manufacture of various drugs has been facilitated by scientific discoveries. Many companies produce drugs that prevent and cure diseases. **Factors undermining scientific revolution in third world countries** a) Lack of enough funds for scientific research. b) High level of ignorance and illiteracy. c) The educational systems do not allow for development of inquisitive mind and development of interest in science. The system is not science oriented. d) The brain drain; the few specialized scientists have migrated to areas with greener pastures like Europe and America. e) There is too much dependence on developed countries for nearly everything manufactured or scientifically produced. f) Lack of adequate support from the government. This is clear in the type of budgetary allocations to scientific research. **Measures that can be undertaken to promote scientific research in third world** **countries.** a) Putting emphasis on the teaching of sciences in schools. b) Making available financial resources for scientific research. c) Emphasizing on competitions and congresses in schools and colleges. d) The government of Kenya has set up research institutions and centres of science and technology. e) Scientists have been trained locally and abroad on new knowledge in science and technology. f) International cooperation conferences in science, which bring scientists together, are organized and attended by Kenyan scientists. **Emergence of selected world industrial powers** **United States of America.** This is the third largest nation in the world after Canada and China Industrialization of the USA began in the mid 19th c and she had emerged as a major industrial power by mid 20th c. USA remains the only superpower in the world after collapse of USSR in 1990. **Factors influencing the industrialization of USA**. a) Abundance of natural resources like iron ore, oil from the oilfields of Texas, copper and coal. There were also agricultural raw materials like cotton, corn, wheat and Tobacco plus forest resources which boosted industrial development. b) Good transport and communication. The USA government developed transport systems in the country. For example railway (opened in 1869), roads, and water transport. Electronic communication was also developed. c) Availability of both skilled and unskilled labour some of which came from the immigrant population. The American system of education gave room for acquisition of necessary skills. d) There were scientific and technological advances to support the industrial process especially by the Europeans who moved to USA. The education system also promoted research which further boosted industrialization. e) Foreign investments in the 19th c from countries like Britain led to industrial development. f) The high American population was a source of domestic market for her industrial products. Her high quality products were also on high demand outside America. g) Enterprising citizens. The Americans were ready to venture into business. Some had good managerial skills. For example John Rockfeller ventured in the petroleum sector, Andrew Carnegie and James Hill in the steel and iron industry. Henry Ford in the mass production of cars. h) Long periods of political stability since her independence assured investors of security and thus paving way for industrialization. i) Availability of sources of energy like coal, petroleum, gas and HEP and later Atomic energy. j) The capitalism policy encouraged both local and external investors since it allowed private ownership of property. k) Government support. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1933-1945) and Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921) provided capital to develop transport systems. l) The 1st and 2nd World wars. During the war period, European nations were unable to produce goods since they were busy fighting. This enabled USA to expand her market as she initially kept away from the war. **Germany** The unification of Germany took place in 1871 after which she began to emerge as an industrial power. **Emergence of Germany as an industrial power was aided as by the following** **factors.** a) Establishment of the customs union, Zollverein. This linked the german states and removed trade barriers hence leading to free trade and economic growth in Germany. Transportation of goods and communication was eased by the customs union. b) Germany was rich in coal which was an important source of energy for the industries. HEP and Atomic energy was also produced o boost industrialization. c) Abundance of natural resources like water and minerals like iron ore from Alsace and Lorraine, coal, oil and copper which were vital industrial raw materials. d) The large Germany population was a source of both skilled and unskilled labour. The system of education also ensured availability of skilled labourers. e) There was also a large domestic market from the large population. Her products were also on high demand from the rest of Europe. For example, her vehicles (Volkswagen, BMW and Mercedes Benz) f) Existence of good transport and communication networks of roads, railway and waterways. This ensured easy transportation of raw materials to factories and finished goods from industries to the market. g) Existence of long periods of political instability in Germany after unification in 1871 under the leadership of Otto Von Bismarck which ensured investor security. h) The availability of finance for industrial growth from the rich german citizens and from loans granted by USA in 1924. The Marshal Plan after 1945 was another source of finance. i) The existence of a hard working and enterprising people in Germany. For example, Krupp Meyer Thyssen who promoted the development of industries in steel. Egells and Harkoft Borsig made great contributions in the field of machinery. Germans industrialization was however interrupted during the two world war periods. At the end of world war Germany was able to recover and progress in industrial development. **Factors which enabled Germany to recover after world war two.** a) West Germany still had a high population which was an important resource in terms of labour. There were also a high number of immigrants from European countries like Turkey and Italy. b) The USA marshal Plan ensured that the required finance was available to assist her industries. c) Germany industries were not totally destroyed by the two wars. d) Industrial \\unrests was not very common in Germany, and therefore, industrialization was not interrupted. e) Good leadership accelerated the industrialization process. Between 1949 and 1955, Germany chancellor Konrad Adenaur proved to be an able leader who encouraged industrial growth. **Japan.** Japan is a nation that has achieved a great deal in industrialization. In the 18c, Japan was faced with civil wars. Later she made contacts with the west, through which her leaders realized that industrialization could strengthen Japan as a nation. Great strides towards industrialization were made during the reign of Emperor Meiji from 1896. **Factors that enabled Japan to emerge as an industrial power** 1. She had enterprising citizens who were hard working and determined. They are always ready to undertake risks in business. The national motto just in time confirms their efficiency. 2. The Long period of political stability especially after World War II has promoted industrialization. 3. The role played by America in financing the industrialization process in Japan as a means of preventing her from falling under the influence of communists after world war II. This enabled Japan to build many industries in the post war period. 4. Japan is a country whose industrial growth has never been slowed down by industrial disputes. The Japanese work for life. When one is employed in Japan, they put the interest of the employer first. This therefore reduces industrial disputes. 5. The Japanese goods are always of high quality and affordable. For example the vehicles, thus ensuring a steady market both local and international. 6. The Japanese education system is technically oriented ensuring production of skilled. Unskilled manpower has been made availability thanks to the abolition of the policy of feudalism that enabled labourers to move from the farms to the industries. 7. Japan has a well developed transport and communication network of railway, roads, water transport, large airports and electric trains. This has enabled improved transportation of raw materials to factories and manufactured goods to markets 8. Existence of an industrial base. Before World War II, Japan had already attained a certain level of industrial development. Many industries were not completely destroyed during the war period. The industries were repaired after the war. 9. Japan has a highly developed renewable hydro-electric power given the existence of large and fast flowing rivers. 10. The government invited expatriates and deployed them to local industries. In 1870, a group of 100 Japanese were sent out to western European factories to learn. 11. Geographical factors. The countrys terrain did not favour agriculture thus making industrialization the best option to improve her economy. 12. The open investment policy encouraged the west to invest in her industrialization. The government encouraged foreign industrialists to plough back their capital and resources into the Japanese economy. **Industrialization in the third world countries.** The term Third world refers to developing nations of Africa, Asia and South America. Most of them are former colonies of European powers and there resources were used to develop the mother countries during the colonial period. **Reasons why many developing countries have lagged behind in industrialization**. a) Long periods of colonization relegated them to the role of suppliers of raw materials and as markets for industrial goods from developed nations at the expense of their own industries. b) Poor transport and communication systems has undermined industrialization since raw materials and manufactured goods cannot be transported to their various destinations. c) Inadequate capital. Most of the third world countries have poor agricultural-based economies which cannot support meaningful industrialization. d) Poor technology. The use of appropriate technology in third world countries is lagging behind and this hampers exploitation of natural resources and manufacturing of goods. e) Many developing countries face stiff completion from the industrialized nations that produce high quality products and have an advanced marketing system for their goods. f) High levels of illiteracy among majority of the population in developing countries leads to lack of technical and scientific skills necessary for industrial take off. g) The protectionist policies adopted by developing countries have discouraged private enterprises and foreign investment. Policies like nationalization and imposition of import duties discourage investors in many countries. h) High levels of poverty in third world countries mean low domestic market. Governments also spent most of their resources to provide for the basic needs of their citizens at the expense of industrialization. i) Many third world countries have been faced with political instability problem. This has hampered industrialization. There are numerous civil wars or cross-border conflicts in many countries. j) Third world countries often poor disaster management strategies. The devastating effects of natural disasters affect industrialization. k) Lack of skilled personnel. Many well trained people migrate to the developed nations in search of well paying jobs. Since independence however, some have made tremendous effort to industrialize. For example, South Africa, Brazil and India. **Brazil** The fourth largest nation in the world after Canada, China and USA, she was colonized by Portugal and attained her independence in 1882. In the last 25 years, she has been able to expand and diversify production of manufactured goods. **Her industrialization has been in four main sectors namely;** 1.***Petroleum and petrochemical industries***. She has petrochemical complexes based in the states of Balica, Rio Grande, Dosul and Sao Paulo. 2.***Motor vehicle industry***. The country has earned a lot of forex through the massive manufacture and sale of motor vehicles since 1997. 3.***Aircraft and aerospace industry***. The Brazilian Space Agency (AEB) and the National Institute of Space Research (NPE) have been involved in the Brazilian space programme which comprises the construction of satellites and launching of space craft. 4.***Electricity generation industry***. The main source of Brazilian electric energy is water. In 1996, 92 % of all her electricity power generation was HEP. **Factors that have facilitated industrialization in Brazil** a) Availability of Cheap and both skilled and unskilled labour from the countrys large population especially after the abolition of slave trade. b) Plentiful natural resources. For example mineral supplies like gold, coal, iron ore, uranium, and manganese etc, agricultural raw materials like coffee, sugarcane, cocoa and maize and forest resources are a great boost to industrialization c) Availability of hydro-electricity as early as 1905 to boost industrialization. Coal is also available. d) Foreign capital. There was heavy influx of foreign capital from countries such as the USA,Canada, Britain, Portugal and France which led to establishment of industries in the country. e) Improved transport and communication. Railway lines were constructed in most parts of Brazil thus opening the interior areas for the exploitation of natural resources and transportation of manufactured goods. f) Good economic policies adopted by President Getulio Vargas (1930-1945) have contributed to industrialization in Brazil. He encouraged the development of transport and communication. He encouraged the harnessing of HEP. He Provided loans and subsidies to certain industries. Adopted protectionist policies of imposing heavy duties on imports. He encouraged exploitation of oil. g) Development of banking in major Brazilian cities such as Manaus, Salvador, Brasilia and Sao Paulo facilitated provision of loans to individuals who wanted to venture in business. h) Large Internal and external markets. Increased Trade between Brazil and other countries has led to growth of external market to supplement the available market locally. i) The World War II which made it hard for her to import goods from Europe thus compelling her to manufacture her own goods. **Obstacles to industrialization in Brazil.** a) High levels of poverty (more than 40% of the population is poor) meaning low purchasing power. Governments also spent most of their resources to subsidize the basic needs of their citizens at the expense of industrialization. b) Inability to fully exploit her natural resources especially those found in low population zones like the south where labour for exploitation is lacking. c) Huge foreign debt. A lot of money is being used to service these debts at the expense of industrialization. d) Poor technology. The use of appropriate technology for exploitation of natural resources and manufacturing of goods is still lagging behind in Brazil. e) Stiff completion from the industrialized nations like USA and Western Europe that produce high quality products and have an advanced marketing system for their goods. f) The resources of Brazil are monopolized by the multinational companies that are based there. The government therefore has no freedom to exploit them for use in industries. **SOUTH AFRICA** She attained majority rule in 1994 after a long struggle against the apartheid regime. The country has achieved great strides in industrialization with many industries including iron and steel industries, engineering, locomotive, chemical, textile, cement, light industries and tourism **Factors influencing industrialization in South Africa** a) The country is endowed with mineral resources such as gold, diamonds, Iron etc. b) Availability of Cheap and both skilled and unskilled labour from the countrys large population. c) Availability of natural resources. For example mineral supplies like gold, lead, iron ore, uranium, manganese, Zinc, Bauxite, Tin, Chromium, Tungsten, Phosphate etc. some of these resources are in plenty and are exported to earn forex. d) Development of hydro-electricity has boosted industrialization. Coal is also available from the Witwatersrand. e) Development of transport and communication. Railway lines, water and road network have been improved thus opening the resources for the exploitation and for transportation of manufactured goods. Air transport is also well developed thus enhancing business operations. f) Availability of capital from her trade in other materials. g) Government support. The government has adopted sound economic policies that promote industrialization. For example imposing heavy tariffs on the imported commodities as a means of protecting local industries, encouraging foreign entrepreneurs to invest in the country and encouraging local investors. h) South Africa is endowed with a variety of tourist attractions like wildlife which boost the tourism industry. i) Large Internal and external markets. Increased Trade between South Africa and other countries especially after end of the apartheid rule has led to growth of external market to supplement the available market locally. **Challenges facing industrialization in South Africa.** a) Long periods of apartheid rule was accompanied with sometimes violent resistance and struggle for majority rule which created an atmosphere not conducive for investment b) The country suffered long periods of economic sanctions imposed by the United Nations between 1948 and 1994 which affected her manufactured goods that could not access external markets. c) There were rampant industrial strikes in the country, during the apartheid regime which affected industrialization. d) The HIV and AIDS scourge has ravaged the countrys labour force thus seriously undermining the industrial efforts. e) There is stiff completion from the industrialized nations in Western Europe that produce high quality products and have an advanced marketing system for their goods. f) High levels of insecurity which, at times, discourages would-be foreign investors. g) High levels of poverty in South Africa mean low purchasing power. Manufactured goods perform poorly locally. **India.** Since Indias independence from Britain in 1947, the country has continued to experience extensive industrialization **Factors that facilitated Indias industrialization**. a) Existence of good industrial base from the textile and leather industries. The British governor Lord Dalhousie also laid a good foundation for industrialization by promoting road construction and cotton growing. b) Also cottage industries like smithing and textiles existed in India long before colonialism. This formed the basis for modern industries c) Availability of Cheap and both skilled and unskilled labour from the countrys large population which is almost at a billion mark d) Existence of raw materials. For example mineral supplies like iron ore, manganese and coal allowed development of heavy industries. Cotton was also available as a textile industry raw material e) Development of energy sources like coal and hydro-electricity has boosted industrialization. Other sources of energy include oil, natural gas and nuclear energy.. f) Development of transport and communication. The great trunk road from Calcutta to Punjab and sea transport development has led to resource exploitation and transportation of manufactured goods. Communication services have also been greatly improved. g) Good technical and scientific education available in India has produced experts who are in great demand in industry and agriculture. h) Availability of capital from her trading contacts with European countries like Portugal, Britain, France and Holland. i) Good national development plans. In the first five-year development plan of 1951, the government adopted sound economic policies that prioritized agriculture especially modern farming. The second phase emphasized industrialization, especially decentralization if industries to high population areas where labour and market existed. j) The government has imposed protective tariffs on the imported commodities as a means of protecting local industries. k) Political stability. India has enjoyed a long period of political stability since her independence thus giving investors confidence. l) Development of banking in India has enabled farmers and industrialists to access credit facilities. **Challenges facing industrialization in India** a) Competition from goods manufactured in the developed countries; the developed nations produce goods of high quality than those manufactured by the Indian industries. b) High population in India requires that the government spare enough capital to feed the people. The government spends a lot of revenue in developing agriculture to feed her people. c) High poverty levels i.e. majority of the Indian population is poor and do not have adequate purchasing power for her manufactured goods/ the local market is therefore limited. d) Lack of efficient communication and transportation infrastructure hence poor movement of goods and labour. e) Natural calamities e.g. drought and floods that destroy raw materials for industries. f) Political conflicts e.g. with neighboring Pakistan, and the civil unrest hinders industrial development. **URBANIZATION** This is the process by which people are attracted to live in towns or large settlements. An urban centre is any area with a human population of 20,000 people or more. **Early Urbanization.** Some of the early urban centres in Africa included Cairo, Meroe/Merowe and Kilwa. Factors that influenced development of urban centres in Africa. a) Existence of transport routes-Meroe/Merowe located at an intersection of transport routes. b) Availability of water for irrigation which increased food production and influenced growth of towns e.g. Cairo. c) Industrial development areas of industries grew up as towns since they attracted laborers e.g. Cairo. d) Commercial activities like trade-location along trade routes. e) Strategic location which ensured security and thus ample growth e.g. Kilwa. f) Growth of religion some grew rapidly because they were religious centres. g) Mining led to development of towns e.g. Meroe, Johannesburg. **Cairo.** This is the capital city of Egypt. The city was founded in 969 AD when the conquerors from Tunisia, The Fatimid Dynasty invaded and conquered Egypt **Factors for the growth of Cairo** a) The Nile River provided water for domestic use and was also a means of transport. This enabled Cairo to grow. b) Availability of water for irrigation which increased food production and influenced growth of Cairo. c) Industrial development various industries developed in Cairo. Food processing industries and construction works. The industries attracted migrants from rural areas. d) Fertile Nile Valley. the Valley had adequate rainfall and the river always carried silt which it deposited downstream to provide e) The Suez Canal which was opened in 1869 opened a new trade route which encouraged the arrival of thousands of Europeans. Commercial, administrative and public buildings were constructed during this time. f) Commercial activities like trade-location along trade routes. The Strategic location along the Nile attracted caravans which would pass through Cairo from North, west and Central Africa g) The opening of the Aswan High Dam in 1902 enhanced food production through irrigation thus influencing Cairos growth. h) The effects of the two world wars which disrupted Egypts trade with other countries thus compelling her to find ways of substituting imports. This boosted industrialization i) Cairo is a cultural centre being home to treasures preserved from the early Egyptian civilization and Islamic culture in their museums. The city of a thousand Minarets. j) Cairo also grew as a centre of education and medicine. Several institutions of higher learning such as the University of Cairo, American University and Azar University contributed to this. **Functions of Cairo** a) It was a national capital and a political centre of the Arab world. b) It serves as the transport and commercial centre of North Africa and the Middle East. c) It is a recreational centre housing many recreational facilities like stadiums and entertainment halls d) Cairo has been a historical centre being the house to the Egyptian civilization for over 5000 years e) Cairo serves as an industrial centre. Many of these developed during the industrialization process. For example, textile, vehicle and communication equipment assembly plants. Cairo faces the following problems today; a) High population. Cairo is the largest city in Africa and the Middle East. One fifth of Egypts population stays in Cairo. In 1988, her population was 11 million. b) Scarcity of food. The high population in the city has caused food shortage. c) Unemployment. The number of unemployed people in Cairo is increasing every year mainly due to the high rate of migration to the city and the natural population increase. d) Housing problems. Between the Nile and the main airport, between 250,000 to 900,000 poor people have put up shanties. This area is commonly reffered to as the city of Death. e) Traffic jams. f) Pollution from the industries, vehicle exhaust, desert storms and garbage burning. g) High crime rate. This is mostly due to the high unemployment level Solutions to the problems facing Cairo. a) The food shortage problem is being tackled through reclaiming land for agriculture. The Aswan high Dam provides water for irrigation. b) The housing problem is being addressed by constructing industries in the suburbs to reduce the population in the city. c) Traffic jams have been eased through the launching of the Cairo Metro in 1987, which was Africas first subway system, which serves the Ramses station to the north and Helwan area to the south. It conveys 60,000 passengers per hour. **Meroe/Merowe.** This was the second capital of the kingdom of Kush and emerged as a city in 650 BC. It rose to become an important industrial centre and specifically iron working producing weapons, hunting and farming tools. **Factors for growth of Meroe.** a) Existence of transport routes-Meroe/Merowe was located at an intersection of transport routes (from east via the red sea and from north via Egypt). This promoted trade with other parts of the world. b) Abundance of wood fuel, from the heavily forested Blue Nile / white Nile intersection area, which was a key to the prosperity of the iron-working industry. c) Mining Merowe was located in a region endowed with a lot of iron. **Social effects of the growth of Merowe** a) The Merotic language developed to replace the Egyptian language previously used by the Nubian founders of Merowe. b) New architectural developments took place in the region. These were characterized by tombs where rulers were buried after death, ruins of temples, palaces and homes. c) Other industries developed besides the iron working industry. For example, weaving of cotton, cloth and pottery **Functions of Meroe during the colonial period** a) Meroe was a centre of iron working hence an early industrial centre. b) A mining centre since Meroe had iron ore, which it mined. c) A religious function since it had many temples where people worshipped their gods. The priests who headed the Meroe church had their headquarters in Meroe. d) It was a centre of trade. e) It was an administrative and political centre. f) Transport centre-major trade routes converged and radiated from Meroe. **Factors that led to decline of Merowe** a) The rise of Axum kingdom of Ethiopia which denied her access to the red sea. b) The increasing desertification of the region, perhaps due to the rapid deforestation. The city began declining in 350 BC. **Kilwa** The town is among the city states that developed along the east African coast. Her greatness was due to the Persian influence. One of its Shirazi rulers from Banadir Coast in Persia, Ali Ibn Hassan, transformed the town into a large city.The sultan erected a stone citadel to protect the island from external enemies. He also forced other conquered city-states to pay tribute to Kilwa.Later on Sultan al-Hassan Ibn Sulaiman I built the Great mosque of Kilwa in 1270 AD and a luxurious palace referred to by historians as Husuni Kubwa. **Factors influencing the growth of Kilwa** a) Exemplary leadership provided by the Shirazi Leaders who kept enemies off and forced the neighbouring city-states to pay tribute to Kilwa. b) The strategic location of Kilwa enabled her to attract merchants as it was a convenient stopping place. c) Monopoly of the sofala Gold Trade. The control of the Sofala Gold trade had fallen in the hands of Kilwa by 1300 AD d) The gleaming buildings of Kilwa such as the great Mosque and palace made her the Jewel of the Zenj Coast, minting her own coins to add to her prosperity.. the mosque became a tourist attraction later own **Functions of Kilwa.** a) It was a major trading centre flourishing mainly due to the gold trade. b) It was a major defence centre since it was heavily fortified against external aggression by a stone citadel. c) It was a religious centre. Mosques for Islamic worship were located at Kilwa e.g the great mosque. d) It was an administrative centre which housed palaces for the rulers and other rich people.However 14th C AD, Kilwas prosperity began to decline due to the following reasons. **Factors that led to the decline of Kilwa.** a) Disruption of the Gold trade/ civil wars among communities. b) Dynastic rivalries/ family feuds. c) Series of rebellions among some of the towns. d) Conquest by the Portuguese who even burnt the towns. **Factors that led to the collapse of early urban centres in pre-colonial Africa** a) Collapse of state system and kingdoms for example Kush collapse and the coastal city states. b) Collapse of trade and their economic systems e.g. the trans-Saharan trade and long distance trade. c) Collapse of Arab influence I east Africa and east Africa. d) Impact of Portuguese conquest leading to destruction of towns like manda and decline of others. e) Introduction of new types of trade e.g. legitimate trade which replaced slave trade. f) European colonization brought in a new social political and economic order. g) Exhaustion of mineral resources e.g. gold as in case of sofala and Kilwa as well as Meroe. Some minerals lost value. h) Changes in transport routes as new roads by-passed some towns thus diverting trade to other centres e.g. Timbuktu i) As a result of stiff competition, some towns dwindled as others expanded. **Early urban centres in Europe** **Athens** This is one of the early states in ancient Greece that flourished after the Persian wars of between 490-480 BC.Athens developed from a farming settlement situated in a defensive site. It had many beautiful buildings such as the Parthenon (a large temple built between 460 and 430 BC in honour of Athena, the goddess of Athens). The acropolis was the highest part of the town.Athens had narrow streets and some of its houses were made of unbaked bricks or mud and thatched roofs.There were frequent outbreaks of diseases due to poor sanitation.The concept of democracy first developed in Athens. At the centre of the city was a market, Agora, which was used as an assembly hall for debates.Athenians were divided into four classes. a) First class the richest that were the most heavily taxed. b) Second class- provided the cavalry for the army. c) Third class- provided the soldiers for the infantry. d) The fourth class- the poorest and who paid no taxes. Athens began to decline due to the Peloponnesian wars (431-404 BC). It was finally crushed in 338 BC by Phillip of Macedonia.Currently Athens is the capital of Greece with a population of 4 million. **Factors that led to growth of Athens.** a) Trade and commerce. Their soils of the surrounding areas were infertile and, therefore could not support agriculture. The Athenians therefore resorted to trade to obtain foods in exchange for wine, wool and olive oil. b) Security. Athens was located in an easily defensible place. The town was surrounded by water, valleys and highlands making it difficult for an external enemy to attack. c) Religious activities. The area was a worship centre. People coming to the Parthenon temple contributed to the growth of the town. d) Accessibility and communication network. The port of Athens was located about six kilometres from the city thus making Athens a transport centre. e) Availability of water. **Functions of Athens.** a) It was a cultural centre. The Greeks loved to watch play. In Athens, there was the great theatre of Epidaurus. b) An educational centre. In Athens, every person was taught how to read and write. Athens became a centre of scholarly work producing great thinkers like Socrates, Plato, Pythagoras, Archimedes and Aristotle. c) Athens was a sports centre. There were Gymnasiums where boys were taught games which were developed into what came to be known as Olympics. d) Religious centre. The Parthenon temple was a great manifestation of this function. People coming to the Parthenon temple contributed to the growth of the town. **London.** The capital city of England, it is situated on the estuary of the river Thames. Its name is derived from the name Llyn Dun which means Celtic Lake Fort. The town developed during the Roman rule in Britain in A.D 43.By 314 AD London had become an early centre of Christianity.In 1381, the city was adversely affected by a serious peasant, revolt that led to massive destruction of property.By 18th c, London had emerged as an elegant city though however also with numerous urban related problems. In 1890, it hosted the worlds first electric train. **Factors influencing growth of London** a) Trade-money obtained from trading was used to build the city. b) Industrialization-industry such as textile, ship building, metal works, etc led to the growth of London. c) Improved transport London is well served by a network of railway and roads. This facilitated the movement of goods and people. d) Shipping activities-there are many harbours in London enabling expanded loading and unloading activities e) Population growth. f) London was the seat of government for a very long time. **Functions of London** a) It was a transport and communication centre. The city was inter-connected with roads which served various parts of Britain. The city houses the main international airports on UK. E.g. Heathrow- the busiest airport in the world. b) It is a political and administrative capital with offices for the Prime Minister and cabinet. The Monarchical offices are also located here. c) It is a commercial centre. Many financial institutions such as banks and other commercial and trading activities attract a lot of traders. d) An industrial centre. London was an early centre of the textile industry.

The city has theatres for the performance of cultural activities and museums which display artefacts of Historical importance. **Problems of London** Like many large cities worldwide, London has its share of problems: a) Overcrowding, b) Unemployment has continued to increase with the growing population. In 1988, for example, nearly 1 in 8 people were unemployed throughout London and the situation in the inner city was worst c) Poor housing and homelessness. This has led to development of slums. d) Transportation is another problem. However, an excellent public system has helped to alleviate this. e) Air pollution continues to be a major challenge. f) Rural-urban migration by the job seekers causing overcrowding in the city. g) Poverty. This was a greater problem in London in the initial stages. **Modern cities in Africa.** **Nairobi.** Nairobi developed as a depot and camp for the railway workers during the construction of the kenya-Uganda railway **Factors influencing the growth of Nairobi** a) Excellent location in an area almost midway between Mombasa and Lake Victoria. b) There was adequate supply of water. c) The land was suitable for construction of workshops as it was flat. d) The climate was suitable for Europeans. Cool temperatures at an altitude of 1700m. e) It was surrounded by a fertile countryside producing adequate foods. f) Transfer of the seat of the colonial government in 1907. **Functions of Nairobi.** g) It was a transport and communication centre.

The town boasts of various tourist attractions such as the Nairobi National Park, National Museums etc. **Problems facing Nairobi** a) Rural-urban migration by the job seekers causing overcrowding in the city. b) Unemployment has continued to increase with the growing population. c) Poor housing. The population growth in Nairobi to 3 million has not corresponded to the development of housing. d) Inadequate social services including health services and educational facilities. e) Congestion on roads caused by an increase in the number of vehicles on the roads while the road network is not expanding. f) Poor town planning has led to poor drainage, especially during heavy rains when a lot of flooding occurs g) Pollution continues to be a major challenge in Nairobi. The factories located in the city are a cause of air and noise pollution. h) Water shortage caused by the high rate of expansion in the town and the depletion odf water reservoirs. i) The rate of HIV/AIDS infection is very high. **Solutions to these problems** a) New housing projects are being developed. For example the Mathare slums upgrading project. b) The education and other social services are being provided through a cost-sharing scheme between the government and the town dwellers. c) The government is addressing the transport/congestion problem through the upgrading of the Thika superhighway to an eight lane highway; the Nairobi Syokimau Railway service was commissioned by president Kibaki I November 2012 to de-congest jogoo road. Etc. d) The government is encouraging the expansion of the informal sector as an alternative source of employment. e) The government is rehabilitating street families by taking them to school s to acquire relevant skills to make them useful to the nation. f) New water projects have been put in place. For example, the third Nairobi water Project from River Chania. g) The government is sensitizing, through NGOs and GOs, civilians about responsible sex as a measure to curb the spread of HIV/AIDS. **Johannesburg.** The city started as a mining camp in 1886 after the discovery of gold in the Witwate- rsrand. This attracted thousands of people coming to prospect for minerals and seek for employment. By the end of 19thc, the population of Johannesburg had risen to 166,000 people. **Factors which contributed to the growth of Johannesburg** a) Existence of minerals/discovery of gold in the Witwatersrand which resulted in a rush of people to the area. b) Availability of energy i.e. coal which was an important source of energy to the mines, industries and homes. c) Excellent location in the veldt/plain making construction work easy. d) Its proximity to Vaal River which supplied plenty of water to industries and domestic use. e) Area around Johannesburg is fertile and therefore agriculturally productive ensuring steady supply of food. f) The organization of the city council which has ensured that financial control and revenue collection is effectively and the city able to manage its growth problems. g) Government policy of supporting industrial development. This has favored its growth. **Functions of Johannesburg**. a) It was a transport and communication centre. The city has a highly develope d network of transport lines since it served the mining industry. In June 2010, it became the first city in Africa to house an electric train service. b) An industrial centre. Its manufacturing functions include mining, metalwork, engineering, diamond cutting, jewellery manufacturing and food processing. c) It is a commercial and financial centre. Many financial institutions such as banks and other commercial and trading activities attract a lot of traders. It is also a major shopping centre in South Africa. d) It is an educational centre, housing institutions like the University of Witwatersrand, teacher training colleges and other key institutions. **Problems facing Johannesburg** a) The problem of racial segregation. The black Africans who work around Johannesburg were often treated almost as slaves though they were the majority in the country. b) Poor housing. Most of the workers who work in and around Johannesburg live in shanties, mainly because of underpayment c) Unemployment has continued to increase with the growing population. Though the city is an industrial town, her industries have failed to provide sufficient employment for all people in the town. d) Rural-urban migration by the job seekers causing overcrowding in the city. e) A large gap between the affluent class, especially the Europeans and the poor people who majorly are African f) Congestion on roads caused by an increase in the number of vehicles on the roads while the road network is not expanding. g) The city has the highest crime rate in the world. h) Inadequate social services including health services and educational facilities. i) Water shortage caused by the high rate of expansion in the town and the depletion ofwater reservoirs. j) The rate of HIV/AIDS infection is very high. **Solutions to the problems** a) The apartheid regime was ended in 1994 thus ending the problem of racial segregation. b) The new government of South Africa is trying to come up with better housing estates. c) Crime has been contained by creating more job opportunities. d) The government is sensitizing, through NGOs and GOs, civilians about responsible sex as a measure to curb the spread of HIV/AIDS **Impact of agrarian development on urbanization in Africa** a) The practice of agriculture forced people to adopt a sedentary lifestyle. Such settlement formed the basis of the earliest urban centres. b) Early agriculture led to specialization. The areas where the potters, iron smelters weavers and fishermen did their work grew up into urban centres c) From the agrarian revolution, there was adequate food for town dwellers. **On urbanization in Europe** a) The revolution in Europe led to a landless society who moved to urban centres seeking employment. This promoted urban growth. b) Increased agricultural production ensured steady supply of raw materials to the new industries hence further growth of the industries. c) Agricultural expansion meant the big farmers had to borrow loans hence the expansion of banking facilities in towns leading to further growth. d) Agricultural produce entering and leaving countries had to be handled in ports hence towns near coasts grew. Impacts of industrial revolution on urbanization in the world. a) The establishment of many factories drew many people to towns in search of employment, the mining industry attracted many people to work in the mines. The mining camps soon grew up into towns. b) Industrial revolution stimulated innovations in transport and communication ensuring faster movement of people to further expansion of trading towns. c) The growth of industry has led to expansion of port towns to handle increased manufactured goods for export and raw material for factories e.g. growth of London, Budapest, Marseilles, Lagos and Cairo. d) The use of machines replaced human labour and caused layoffs. Those who lost their jabs sometimes became a security risk hence an increase in crime. e) The many inefficient factories that came up after the revolution have caused massive air and water pollution. f) Rural urban migration has exerted pressure on the limited resources and services the towns can offer. **Consequences of urbanization on European communities during the 19th c.** a) Rural urban migration by Africans looking for better opportunities led to increased crime levels and insecurity for the Europeans. b) Air pollution which also affected them. c) Creation of employment for the Europeans in the developing industries. d) Creation of markets for agricultural produce due to increased urban population. e) Europeans were deprived of cheap African labour as most of them moved to urban areas. **ORGANIZATION OF AFRICAN SOCIETIES** Despite the high amount of decentralization of African communities in the 19th c , there existed a few who were centralized. For example, Buganda, Ethiopia, Buganda, Asante, Mandinka, Ndebele and shona among others. **The Baganda** These were a Bantu speaking people of the Buganda kingdom in Uganda. The Buganda Chiefdom had emerged as early as 140 AD as a subject state of Bunyoro- Kitara Kingdom **Origin of Buganda kingdom** The kingdom was crystallized around the counties of busiro, kyadondo and mawakota. Traditions also state that the first king and creator of Buganda kingdom was Kintu who came from the east around Mount Elgon region. It is believed he entered Buganda with 13 clans. Other theories attribute Bugandas origin to the Luo. That Kimera Kato, a brother of Isingoma Rukidi Mpunga the founder of the luo-babito dynasty in Bunyoro was the founder of Buganda.It is also probable that Buganda might have been one of the many kingdoms founded by the bachwezi- the demi-gods.Other clans of Buganda are believed to have come from the ssese islands. **Factors that led to the growth of a strong Buganda Kingdom** a) Good strong and able leaders like Kkyabagu, junju and Suna etc. who propelled it to prosperity by uniting the people and restructuring the existing administration system. b) Buganda Was small and a compact kingdom and therefore easy to manage. Other kingdoms like Bunyoro-Kitara were too large with a class system. c) Its strategic location in a defensible position in the lake region was of great advantage over her rivals Toro and Bunyoro. She lay next to Lake Victoria giving her defence, communication and transport advantage. On the east were small states of Toro and Ankole who posed no threat. d) Good climate and fertile soils in the region. This enabled successful growing of Bananas, their staple crop. e) The contacts with the Waswahili enabled her to gain riches and weapons/guns. f) The kingdom had a strong loyal army to defend it from her warring neighbors. The Kabaka even possessed a royal navy that kept guard over Lake Victoria. g) Existence of a centralized government making the kingdom cohesive. h) The ganda traditions allowing the kabaka to marry from every clan as means of ensuring unity. i) System of labour organization. The tradition demanded that farming be done by women while the men were involved in other activities such as politics, carpentry, war, bark cloth making and smithing j) The wars of conquest which finally led to her expansion. **How Buganda kingdom was governed**. Buganda kingdom had a highly centralized monarchy under the kabaka who enjoyed absolute powers. His position was hereditary. The Kabakas Court was the nerve centre of the Baganda community. All symbols of Royal authority were kept in the court. E.g. the throne (Namulondo), royal Drums, spears and stools. The kabaka was the political leader of the Baganda kingdom. He was the Head of the traditional religion lubale/ he was the chief priest. He was the judicial head and the final court of appeal/he was the supreme judge. The was the commander-in- -chief of the armed forces.He appointed senior government officials and dismissed them when need arose. He controlled trade. The capital of the kingdom was at Mengo, where the palace, Lubiri, was situated. The kabaka appointed senior government officials and dismissed them when need arose. Forexample, he appointed the katikiro, omulamuzi and omuwanika i.e. prime minister, chief justice and treasurer respectively who assisted him in administration. He also appointed mugema (the senior most chief among the Bataka), Musenero (the chief Butler) and Mfumbiro (the chief baker).The katikiro was in charge of organizing tax collecting and public works. He planned wars in the Kabakas name. He had to protect the kabaka during war. He was responsible of informing the kabaka of the decisions he made on court issues. Below him were omulamuzi (chief justice) and omuwanika (treasurer) who were directly responsible to the kabaka.The Bataka were minor chiefs in charge of clans, guarded land, collected taxes, carried out conscription to the army and presented the page boys to the kabaka.Peasants served under chief and were to fight in wars. Slaves (badus) served the king chiefs in their homesteads. Pages and bagalagala (sons of chiefs and other nobles) served the kabaka too.To ensure unity the kabaka married from principal clans.There was a Lukiko which advised the kabaka and was the final court. It comprised 69 members who were nominated by the kabaka (positions were not hereditary). It made laws and debated issues concerning the kingdom. It also directed tax collection and planned expenditure, it acted as the final court of appeal, and it represented the needs of the people to the kabaka. It helped the kabaka in general administration. It checked the activities of government. **Political organization** The kingdom was divided into counties (Ssaza) and sub-counties. Each county was under Ssaza chiefs whose position was hereditary initially before the kabaka began to appoint them as a means of making them accountable. Each Ssaza was divided into a gombolola headed by a gombolola chief, who maintained law and order and collected taxes. The gombololas were further divided into smaller sub-divisions called miluka each under a miluka chief. The miluka was divided into kisoko. The smallest administrative unit among the Baganda was the village council. The Abatongole appointed by the kabaka, governed the vassal states **Social organization of the Baganda** The kingdom was divided in social classes with the royal family occupying the top of the hierarchy, then ruling class, the chiefs who ruled over the peasants or commoners known as bakopi.At the bottom of the social class were the slaves (Badu) who were acquired mainly through raids on neighbouring communities such as Busoga, Toro and Bunyoro. The Baganda believed in the existence of many gods some of whom included; a) Katonda, God the creator whose home was in heaven. The prayers to him were done every morning and were conducted by the head of the homestead. b) Kibuuka, God of war and thunder. c) Mukasa, goddess of fertility who was worshipped in order to bless the nation with more children, livestock and a bumper harvest. d) Kiwanuka, god of lightning. e) Nawagenyi, goddess of Drought. The community also believed in the existence of ancestral spirits whose main responsibilitywas to maintain discipline in the clans since the spirits were believed to restrict their influence to close relatives. Balubaale were the spirits of people who had supernatural powers and were consulted through prophets or mediums. The Baganda had religious leaders, led by the kabaka, then the mediums, prophets, and medicine people.There also existed sorcerers called Balopo who were feared since they could cause harm to people.The Baganda religion however was greatly undermined by the influx of the Waswahili and ArabMuslims into the community in the 19th c. The Baganda society was polygamous. For example, the kabaka was required to marry from all clans to maintain links in the society.There was division of labour according to sex. Women tilled the land while men engaged in warfare, built houses, and made clothes from bark-cloth.As a form of rite of passage, the Baganda went through formal education that trained them in their rites. **Economic organization.** a) Bugandas economy was based on agriculture and the production of the staple food bananas (matoke). b) The baganda also kept large herds of livestock. The bahima herded Kabakas herds. From the livestock, they obtained milk and meat to supplement their diet. c) The baganda conducted raids on their neighbours like the Buddu, Busoga and Kyaggwe through which they acquired slaves, livestock and ivory. d) There was division of labour, women worked in fields while men were involved in construction of roads, bark cloth making, smithing and war. e) The kingdom was deeply involved in local, regional and international trade. They exchanged bark cloth and beans for cattle from their neighbours. She exchanged slaves and hides for guns, glassware and cotton cloth from coastal traders. f) The baganda practiced iron working, producing hoes for cultivation and weapons for defence. Some of these items formed their trade items. Rich iron deposits were also acquired by waging wars against their neighbours. g) Handcraft was an important activity and included basketry and pottery. h) The textile industry consisted of bark cloth manufacture. i) Salt mining was an important activity. j) Fishing on Lake Victoria k) The baganda also engaged in some hunting activities to acquire ivory. **SHONA** The Shona were a Bantu-speaking people who comprised the Rozwi, Kore kore, Zezuru and Manyika sub-groups. The first stone buildings in Zimbabwe are believed to have been the work of the Shona. Their capital was at Mapungubwe, south of the confluence of the Limpopo and Shashi rivers.About 1450 AD, the Rozwi Groups gained dominance and established a centralized political system. They established the Mwene Mutapa Empire which ruled until the time of the Ngoni invasion in the 1830s. **Political organization of the Mwene Mutapa Empire** The emperor was the head of the state and government. Succession of authority was hereditary. Important emperors included Chikura, Nyatsimba, Mutota and Matope. Religion played a role in government and united people. The emperor was a semi- divinereligious leader, a military leader and the chief priest. He was the only one who could communicate with the spirits of the ancestors. It was believed that when Mwene Mutapa died, he became a Mudzimu and automatically qualified to be worshipped as a national ancestral spirit.The ancestral spirits (Vadzimu) communicated peoples problems to god.Religion also influenced laws.The priests were used as spies and link between the emperor and the people. Another unifying factor in the kingdom was the royal fire. It was from the continuous fire that each vassal chief carried a flame to his chiefdom that he kept burning as a symbol of national unity.The empire was divided into provinces namely Guruhaswa, Mbire, Utere, Banua, and Manyika each headed by a lesser chief. The most important chiefs in the empire sent their sons, with tribute in form of cattle, gold, slaves and ivory, each year to pay homage to the Mwene Mutapa as goodwill ambassadors.There was a standing army of warriors which was used for defence and expansion of the kingdom. Revenue from trade was used to run the army and sustain the empire.The position of importance held by Mwene Mutapa led to the creation of a complex Style of administration around him. The government officials included the court steward, treasurer, commander-in-chief of the army and Mbokurumme (kings sister-in-law). Others were the queen mother, the emperors sister and nine principal wives, the doorkeeper and the chief cook and head drummer. At the lower level were the lesser chiefs who paid tribute to the king by providing cattle, labour and agricultural produce. **Economic organization of the Shona**. The Shona country enjoyed ample rainfall with fertile soils thus enabling them to engage in the following economic activities; a) The Shona were mixed farmers who cultivated crops and reared animals. Among the agricultural produce were corn, millet, ground nuts, beans, watermelons, tomatoes, fruits and cabbages. b) The Shona practiced trade, specifically long distance trade between them and the Arabs and Waswahili at sofala. They gave Gold and ivory for cotton cloths, glassware, copper items, guns, daggers and knives. c) They were skillful hunters. They hunted elephants for their ivory which was in great demand. They also gathered wild honey and wild fruits to supplement their diet. d) The shona were skilled craftsmen who made articles like spears, hoes and knives. Others were goldsmiths who used gold to decorate. They also practiced cloth making from wild cotton and bark fibres. **Social organization of the Shona** Among the shona, Mwene Mutapa was regarded as a divine king and was therefore venerated. When he was well, the nation was also well.The shona religion was based on the Mwari cult. They believed in the all powerful God, Mwari/Murungu. His worship was done through several priests who were mainly produced by the Rozwi clan. The priests presided over religious functions in sacred places of worship, shrines where sacrifices were offered.The shona believed in ancestral spirits. They had two kinds of spirits, Vadzimu or family spirits and Mhondoro or clan spirits. The spirits communicated though an intermediary, Svikiro, a departed family or clan spirit.The shona had a national spirit Chamiruka who settled clan disputes and also protected the people against injustice in the government.The shona had a kinship system which was patrilineal (inheritance through the father). The shona were divided into clans whose names were coined from animals like leopard, monkey, elephant etc. it was a taboo to consume meat from such animals.They were a polygamous community which was viewed as a means to enable the family to have enough members to provide labour.The shona lived in stone buildings. Their skill in masonry is associated with the ruins of Mapungubwe found in Zimbabwe. **The Asante** The Asante are one of the Akan-speaking peoples who occupy the southern part of Ghana, west Africa. By the middle 18th c, the Asante/Ashanti had established the most dominant state in modern Ghana. **Origin of the Asante Kingdom** The empire Developed in the 1670s. It was formed as a result of competition for gold fields in the Akan forestland. In the 1500s: Akan peoples came into contact with Portuguese traders. Wealthy owners of the Akan gold mines begin to trade gold for Benin slaves with the Portuguese. In the 1670s, Osei Tutu was a military leader and head of the Oyoko clan of the Akan peoplesTook control over a trade center near Kumasi and established this as his capital city. This happened after his maternal uncle Obiri Yeboa, the leader of the Oyoko clan was killed during war.A company of Akwamu troops are believed to have been instrumental in facilitating Osei Tutus rise to power. He conquered the neighboring chiefdoms and took control of their trade. He took the title of ASANTEHENE. He Collected taxes from the chiefdoms on profits from the gold mines. He built a standing army by demanding that chiefdoms provide soldiers. He sought the support of religious leaders throughout the region. For example, a priest of the shrine of the war god (Otutu0 called Anokye in Akwapim played a role in ensuring that Osei Tutu became the Asantehene.). He established the GOLDEN STOOL as a symbol of his rightful rule. **The Golden Stool** Akan peoples become Asante (Ashanti) By 1700, Osei Tutu controlled most of the gold fields of the Akan forestland.Osei Tutu was succeeded by Opoku Ware (1717-1750). During his rule, he will extend the Asante kingdom to include most of what is today present-day Ghana. The new city-states now included Kumasi, Juaben, Bekmai, Mampon, Kokofu and Nsula.Opuku Ware will participate in the slave trade with the Europeans, selling war captives and growing very wealthy. Asante were one of the last great kingdoms to fall to the Europeans in the late 19th century. **Factors that led to the rise and growth of the Asante Empire** a) The Asante had a strong economy based on agriculture. Both food and cash crops like Kola nuts were cultivated. This helped to increase the population. b) The Asante had capable political leaders they included Obiri Yeboa (1670-1678), Osei Tutu (1680-1717) who unified the people through the Golden stool that he created and Opuku Ware (1720- 1750). c) The several city-states that emerged around Kumasi supported each other. Most of them were related by the fact that they originated from the same Oyoko clan. d) The growth of the Trans- Atlantic slave trade brought a lot of wealth to the Asante people. The wealth was instrumental in the prosperity of the Kingdom. e) The centralized political system under the Asantehene provided stability. f) The Odwira festival that was held annually helped to make the state more cohesive. g) The Asante were brave and proud people, and the need to free themselves from the oppressive rule of Denkyira, their former masters, motivated them to create a strong state. **Political organization** The Asante had a centralized political system. The Nucleus of the Asante Empire was five citystates of Kumasi, Dwaben, Bekwai, Kokofu and Nsula.The empire comprised of three parts, namely Kumasi (Metropolitan Asante), Amatoo states and Provincial Asante. Each part had its own system of administration though the three cooperated in some areas. Kumasi was directly ruled by the Asantehene and was recognized as Kumasihene. **Metropolitan Asante** These were the five states that lay 35 miles around Kumasi and which recognized the Asantehene as the supreme authority. The government of the metropolitan Asante consisted the confederacy council made of the Kings (Omanhene) of the various states and presided over by the Asantehene. The Asante Union provides a good example of a federal system of government. All the states within the metropolitan Asante paid tax to the Asantehene which was used to pay for the administration and form an army.Each of the five states had its own state council that made important decisions. Each also had its own Black stool that symbolized their power over the state .The omanhenes were expected to give the right of declaring war on another Omanhene, attended the annual Odwira festival (to pay allegiance to Asantehene, settle disputes and honor the dead), grant own subjects the right to appeal to the high court set up for the union of the capital and recognize the right of Asantehene to impose national levies.Neither the Asantehene nor the Omanhene enjoyed dictatorial powers.The kingdom had an army that was divided into several wings. Though overall leadership of the army was provided by the Asantehene, each Omanhene command his own forces. The Asantehene was deputized by Mamphohene who automatically take over army leadership whenever the Asantehene was unavailable.Among the Asante, there was compulsory military service for all able- bodied men in the empire (a system borrowed from the Akwamu).The Asantehene established a national festival called the Odwira festival during which all The Omanhene assembled in Kumasi to show their loyalty to the Asantehene, to honor the deadand to solve disputes amongst themselves. It also enhanced unity amongst the Asante states. The golden stool, an idea invented by a priest called Okomfo Anokye (he claimed it came from the sky in 1695) during the reign of Osei Tutu, made the office of the Asantehene acceptable. It was a source of unity as it bound together the Asante states since they all recognized its sacredness. **Provincial Asante** It comprised all the states conquered by the Asante in the 18th century (subject states). Such people were represented in the army and paid taxes to the Asantehene. Osei Tutu appointed two consuls who resided in each subject state to supervise their affairs. An efficient bureaucracy was established in each o the provincial Asante states with the Asantehene appointing senior officials directly himself **Social organization** The Kingdom was composed of many communities who spoke the Akan language. The clans that made up the Akan speakers included the Akyem, Kwahu, the Fante, the Wassa, the Assin and the Akwapem. All these communities shared the same social institutions like the forty-day calendar, same marriage and naming rites. The basic social unit was the clan.They had a matrilineal system of inheritance. The birthright of each family passed through the mother from one generation to the other. The practiced polygamy marriage due to wealth and comfort in society and prohibited inter clan (paternal and maternal clans) marriages. The Odwira festival helped unite the society besides the golden stool. The Asante was socially stratified into social classes e.g. the rulers, rich, peasant farmers and slaves. The Asantehene and his family comprised the royal family together with the Omanhene. The saves among the Asante were majorly war captives. Some of the female slaves could be elevated to concubines and later become entitled to some rights.They believed in magic and superstition and also worshipped gods and goddesses i.e. they were polytheists. Their supreme creator was Nyame (Nyambe).They believed in their ancestors as mediators between the people and God (gods). The Odwira festival was held annually to honour ancestors and solves my disputes. They offered sacrifices to their gods/ancestors including human sacrifices.The Asante hence was considered semi-divine being and highly regarded. Creative arts like dancing music, sculpture were highly respected in society. **Economic organization of the Asante** Being located in an area rich in terms of land fertility forest resources, mineral resources and rainfall, the Asante Empire thrived economically in the following ways. a) Being located at the point of convergence of the trans-Atlantic trade routes, the Asante people participated in the trade providing gold, slaves and ivory in exchange for cotton, cloth, guns and gunpowder. They also provided middlemen and porters during the trade. b) The Asante practiced agriculture, growing crops like yams, vegetables and fruits. They also kept livestock like cattle. c) The community practiced gathering of Kola nuts and hunting for game meat from the forestto supplement their diet. d) They practiced iron working and made crafts such as baskets and pots The Asante community however became a victim of the same economic wars it waged against her neighbours especially the Fante and Denkyira. In 1873, the British came to the aid of the Fante thus greatly weakening the Asante power. **Reasons for the collapse of the Asante Empire.** a) The type of political organization in the kingdom did not encourage cohesion. Some states in the provincial Asante had no attachment to the golden stool/were semi - independent/ condition of a state within a state. b) Leadership struggle between the Asante and dwaben; a neighboring rival of Asantes state. c) Civil wars /Constant rebellions from the conquered states /wars with other tribes e.g. war with the afante. d) British interference in the Asante affairs through the 19th c. they had a burning desire to destroy the Asante empire and colonize the region.. they even supported dwaben in her war against Asantehene e) Periodic interference with trade and trade routes as a result of wars weakened the financial position of the empire i.e. Abolition of slave trade as a major source of income. f) The Anglo-Asante wars which the British won led to final destruction of the empire. **CONSTITUTIONS AND CONSTITUTION MAKING** The term constitution refers to a set of agreed principles and rules which state the structure and powers of a government.The constitution of Kenya is a supreme law that binds all people and all state organs at national and county level. It outlines the structure of government, defines the powers and prerogatives of the head of state, states the compositions, functions and powers of parliament, states the compositions of the executives and outlines the duties and rights of the citizens. Constitutions vary in various countries depending on different experiences and their form is determined by the following. a) The historical background of a country b) Geographical factors. For example the numerous islands of Japan must be catered for in their constitution c) Religious beliefs of the people. Some countries have the Islamic Sharia law in their constitution e.g Libya and Somali d) Race composition of a country. For example, in South Africa the apartheid racial policy had been included in their constitution. **Functions of a constitution** a) The constitution provides the legal ground from which the laws of the country are made. b) It spells out the powers of government and its relationship to the gove rned. c) It spells out the rights and duties of all citizens. It also provides the options a citizen has, legally, if those rights and freedoms are violated. **Types of constitutions** ***1. Written constitution***. This is a constitution in which the basic principles concerning the organization of government, powers of its various agencies and rights of the subjects are consciously written down in one document.The first country to adopt a written constitution was USA after she attained political independence from Britain on 4th July 1776. France adopted it in 1791following the French revolution of 1789. The primary objective of these adoptions was to include the rights of the citizens to avoid abuse by those in power. Other countries with written constitutions include many European, African, Latin American and Asian countries. Kenya also has a written constitution. **Characteristics of a written constitution** a) It acts as a standard of reference to which the acts of the government of the day may always be compared. b) It is a rigid document that cannot be altered easily. c) It is only amended through a clearly spelt out procedure which is followed to the letter. d) There must be a special body entrusted by the legislature with the work of drafting the constitution. e) Once drafted the constitution must get the approval of the legislature. **Advantages of a written constitution** a) Since the procedures of amending a constitution are clearly spelled out, it is not easy for politicians or other interest groups in the society to alter it. b) In case of a crisis, the constitution provides very clear guidelines on the procedures to be followed, thus restoring stability in the country. c) Since a written constitution is rigid, it therefore recognizes that there are fundamentals in a state, e.g rights of citizens, powers and duties of the president, which should never be easily changed. Change can only be done after adequate consideration. d) It is fundamental to a newly formed nation so as to take off in an orderly and organized manner. e) A written constitution is important to ensure that the identity of the various groups are preserved and maintained in a country with diverse racial groupings, religion and ethnic composition. f) Since it is arrived at after thorough and careful consideration by all, it therefore unites the people in the nation as it would have acquired recognition and acceptance from the majority of the citizens. **Disadvantages of a written constitution.** a) Due to its rigidity, it can fail to respond to changing circumstances and can therefore easily become obsolete. b) A written constitution tends to make the judiciary too powerful as it I the only body that interprets the document. Where the executive and the legislature control the judiciary, the constitution can easily be manipulated. c) Some written constitutions are too detailed and rarely understood by the ordinary citizens. d) The procedure for amending the constitution is slow and costly. This causes delays which could lead to civil disorder in a society. **2. Unwritten constitution** This is a constitution where the fundamental principles of the organization and powers of the government are not contained in one document but rather in several scattered documents to add to the customs of a country. For example, the British constitution. **Sources of British constitution** a) Statutes. This refers to an Act of Parliament. Examples of statutes that comprise the British constitution are; ~ Act of Union with Scotland of 1707 that determined the territorial boundaries within which the United Kingdoms constitution operates. ~ Parliament Act of 1911 that governs the relationship between the House of Commons and the House of Representatives ~ The Reform Acts of 1832 and 1834 which determine succession to the throne. b) Customs. This refers to ancient or traditional practices or the common law. For example, the first born inheriting the throne. c) Laws of precedents. Past accepted principles may be applied to a new set of facts in a judgment and this may eventually become part of the law of the land. d) Customs of parliament. House procedures including standing orders and other regulations are part of the British constitution. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Cheloti 2012-2013 82 e) Historical documents. The following two Important documents form part of the British constitution; ~ The Magna Carta (1215AD) that contained the promises by the England King that he would not levy taxes outside the three legal feudal taxes without the consent of the legal counsel. ~ The Petition of Right (1628) in which King Charles I agreed not to levy taxes unless through the Act of Parliament. f) The Conventions and Practices that have become respected over the years are also part of the British constitution. **Advantages of unwritten constitution** a) It is flexible and adaptable to changing circumstances in the society. This is especially valuable during periods of rapid socio-economic and political changes. b) It is indigenous and therefore suited for a state. c) It can be changed by ordinary legislative process. d) It provides continuity with the nations traditions and is therefore accepted and respected by the people. **Disadvantages of an unwritten constitution** a) It gives the courts too much work in handling matters as they search for constitutional principles not only in judicial decisions but in different statutes and customs. b) Because of the nature of the unwritten constitution, it is not easy to protect the rights of people effectively as the fundamentals of the state are not recorded in a few or a single document. c) An unwritten constitution tends to be vague and indefinite as compared to the written constitution. d) An unwritten constitution presupposes that the people are politically conscious and alert and will ensure that their rights and liberties are respected. **Features/qualities of a good constitution.** a) Definiteness; it must depict clear intelligence and one which facilitates thinking. It must define its content clearly. b) It should be comprehensive/ it must be short but inclusive of all the issues involved in government operation. c) Should be durable and elastic/ it should neither be too rigid to amend or change nor so flexible as to encourage interference of its basic principle. d) Should be able to protect fundamental rights and freedom of citizen/a bill of rights must be provided for in the constitution, showing the extent to which the government can interfere with individual rights. e) Amendment procedure must be stated clearly. f) The constitution must be representative of the diverse social and political spectrum of the people. g) It must exhibit supremacy of the people/ it must make the will of the people as the basis of government. h) It must stipulate the choice of government through free and fair elections i) Statement of national wealth. /It must have a clear statement on how resources are to be managed and how wealth created is to be distributed.Constitution making process in Kenya in pre-colonial, colonial and post colonial eras. **Pre- colonial era** The rules and regulation that formed the constitutional basis of pre-colonial communities in Kenya were mainly formulated by the councils of elders and then handed down from generation to generation.The constitution was unwritten constitution guiding only the political, economic and socio cultural activities **Colonial Era (1885- 1960)** Kenya was under the British colonial rule after the Berlin Conference upto 1963. The constitutional developments in the country were greatly influenced by the settlement of immigrant communities like the white settlers, the Asians and Christian missionaries. These communities competed with the Africans for control of economic resources and political power.The turning point in Kenyas pre-colonial constitutional developments was the outbreak of Mau Mau war and subsequent declaration of a State Of Emergency on 20th October 1952 by Sir Evelyn Barring. When the colonial secretary Oliver Lyttelton visited Kenya in 1954, he proposed the following constitutional reforms. ~ Establishment of a multi-racial council of ministers representing the three races setting ground for two Indian and one African minister (B. A Ohanga became the first African Minister) ~ It Proposed direct representation of Africans in the LEGCO ~ Lifting the ban on African political parties/district associations. In 1958, a new constitution was proposed by Lennox Boyd. The constitution led to increased number of elected Africans in the legislative council (from 8 to 14). It led to introduction of multi-racial representation in the legislative council. It led to the increase of the number of African ministers to two. The African elected members demanded for a constitutional conference culminating into the independence constitution. The independence constitution (1960-1962) The first Lancaster House Conference (1960) Attended by all members of Legco and two nominated members, the conference received the following demands; a) Africans demanded for true democracy, where one man would have one vote. b) The Arabs wanted to retain the ten-mile coastal strip, while Somalis wanted reunification with Somalia. c) Michael Blundell, representing a section of Europeans demanded for a multi-racial government while Captain Briggs representing the white extremists demanded for creation of provinces along racial lines. All these proposal were moderated by the British government The period after the first Lancaster House conference witnessed a lot of differences among Africans and among other races. Among the Africans, the differences culminated into the formation of KANU in March 1960 at Kiambu with James Gichuru as president and KADU in Ngong Town with Ronald Ngala as the president.The main difference between KADU and KANU was that while KANU was advocating gor a unitary government, KADU wanted a federal system.The second Lancaster House conference (1962).When KANU refused to form government despite winning the elections, demanding for the release of Jomo Kenyatta, KADU formed a rather minority government that was heavily dominated by the colonial officials. Such a government was rejected by most people thus creating instability that led to the British Authorities calling for the second Lancaster House Conference. **The following important issues were discussed**; a) The future of the coastal strip that belonged to the sultan prior to colonialism. b) The future of North Eastern Province(North Frontier District) c) Security of the minority. The participants in the formulation of the independence constitution were representatives of various political parties: - Paul Ngei (APP), KADU and KANU. Others were representatives of the Asian and European communities.The 1962 conference settled for a federal structure with a strong central government.A coalition government was formed briefly but when the 1962 constitution was promulgated, it was followed by a general election in May 1963.The third and final conference in 1963 resulted in the drafting and adoption of Kenya's first independent Constitution by the British Parliament The 1963 constitution established a parliamentary system with executive powers vested in a cabinet headed by a Prime Minister, The Queen of England remained Head of State. **Independence (1963)** Kanu won the May elections and Kenya Attained internal self-government with Jomo Kenyatta as the first Prime Minister on 1st June 1963. Kenya attained full independence on 12th December 1963 when the Queen ceased to be the head of state.Kenya has been using the Independence Constitution upto August 2010 though with so many amendments. **Main provisions of the independence constitution of Kenya** a) The independence constitution provided for a regional/majimbo government with each of the seven regions having a regional assembly and president. The boundaries of the regions were given protection in the constitution. b) It also provided for a bicameral parliament consisting of the senate and the house of representatives/upper house and lower house. The lower house comprised 117 elected members and 12 special members. The senate comprised 41 members representing the 41 administrative districts and one representing Nairobi city.Though the senate was subordinate to the House of Representatives, it had powers to authorize declaration of a state of emergence, 65% of the senators were required to approve the amendment of constitution. Also all Bills required approval of both houses. c) The constitution stipulated that the Prime Minister (appointed by the governor) was to be head of Government and Queen the Head of State, represented by the Governor General. The powers of the governor were defence of the country, foreign affairs, internal security and approval of legislation. d) The constitution recommended a multiparty system of government and the party with the majority of seats forming the government. e) It contained the Bill of Rights, which protected the individuals rights. The Bill of rights was modeled on the European convention on Human Rights and Fundamental freedoms. f) The constitution provided for an elaborate scheme to protect the minority rights. The minorities in this case were the Europeans, Asians and some indigenous communities. g) Independent Electoral commission was set up consisting of the speakers of the two houses and a nominee of the Prime Minister. Also it comprised nominees representing the regions. This was to ensure impartiality and honesty in elections. h) The constitution provided for an independent and impartial judiciary to ensure justice and prevent corruption. Judges were accorded security of tenure which was extended to the Attorney General, the governments principal legal advisor. i) It provided for public service commission. The aim was insulate the civil service recruitment and promotions from abuse and corruption. j) An independent land board. **Post colonial Era (1963-2010).** From independence to Mult-party democracy period (1963-1991) Like many former British colonies, Kenya started off with a west Minister system of government.The first Constitutional amendment in independent Kenya was in 1964. Kenya became a republic and the executive became presidential. The senate and regions were also abolished.A Constitutional review in June 1982 officially transformed Kenya into a one-party state.A parliamentary act in December 1991 repealed the one-party system provisions of the constitution and effectively established a multiparty system. The period after 1992 was influenced by Global issues like the decline of the cold war, collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989 and the intensified struggle for democracy all over the world.In 1997, the Inter Party Parliamentary Group (IPPG) was formed with membership from the Opposition and KANU mps. The aim was to come up with minimal constitutional reforms to level the ground before the 1997 general elections **The following reforms were approved**; a) The KBC shall observe fairness in providing balanced all-inclusive political views in the news coverage. b) Membership of the Electoral Commission to be reviewed to accommodate the interest of the opposition. c) Registration of Parties would be done without unnecessary delay. d) The powers of the chiefs that would likely interfere with political activity at local level be contained. e) The police Act be amended to provide for politically impartial police force f) To repeal a number of laws restricting civil and political rights, ad abolition of the offence of sedition In 1997, a constitutional review commission, called the Constitution of Kenya Review Commission (CKRC), was established to provide civic education, seek public input and prepare a constitution. In October 2000, parliament passed a Bill entrenching the CKRC into the independence constitution. It was now headed by Professor Yash Pal Ghai and comprised 15 commissioners. In June 2001, the CKRC was expanded to include other groups like the Peoples commission following the amendment of the 1997 Constitution of Kenya Review Act.The CKRC act specified a 2 year time frame for completion of the review process.However, its activities were marred by controversy in 2002 and the ultimate dissolving of parliament in October 2002 by president Moi. He even attempted to dissolve the commission, thanks to its being entrenched in the independence constitution.When the NARC government took over power in 2003, the review exercise was reviewed. The National Constitutional Conference was convened at Bomas of Kenya and came up with what came to known as the Bomas constitution. However the political elite did not support the Bomas .In 2005, Parliament amended the constitution of Kenya Review Act to allow the Attorney General to come up with the Proposed New Constitution, popularly known as the Wako . The constitution was ultimately rejected by Kenyans at the constitutional referendum in 2005 because of disagreements amongst various stakeholders.In December 2007, Kenyans participated in the general elections that were followed by Post Election Violence caused by the controversy that surrounded the results of the elections. **Steps towards realization of a new constitution in Kenya from 2008**. a) On 28 February 2008 The National Accord and Reconciliation Act (NARA) was signed by President Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga .Agenda No 4 of this arrangement was a new process to finalize the long awaited constitution of Kenya The main provisions of the National Accord were: ~ Establishment of a grand coalition government with two parties; PNU and ODM sharing power. ~ Raila Odinga was to become Kenyas second Prime minister after the position was created in the accord arrangement ~ Two deputy Prime Minister Positions would be filled by the PNU and ODM parties respectively. ~ Provision for An expanded cabinet with the two parties being accorded slots as per their proportion in the house. b) In 2008 the Constitution of Kenya Review Act 2008 was passed and a Committee of Experts (CoE) was established as the main technical constitutional review organ to drive the process. c) The CoE was chaired by Nzamba Kitonga, the deputy chair was Ms Atsango Chesoni, other members were Ms Njoki Ndung'u, Mr Otiende Amolo,Mr Abdirashid Hussein, Mr Bobby Mkangi, Professor Christina Murray (South Africa), Dr Chaloka Beyani (Zambia) and Dr Frederick Ssempebwav (Uganda). d) 23 February 2009 Members of the CoE were appointed by the President were later on sworn in, e) On 17 November 2009 CoE released the to the public and invited views and comments on the constitution, f) By 23rdFebruary 2010. CoE had submitted the final of constitution to the Parliamentary Select Committee. g) On 4thaugust 2010 Kenya held a Constitutional Referendum where the new constitution was overwhelmingly endorsed. h) On 28th august 2010, the new constitution was promulgated and became operational making Kenya the first independent African state to depart from the independence constitutions. **Stages in the constitution making process in Kenya since independence** 1) Debate over contentious issues. Issues like the entrenchment of section 2A in the independence constitution in 1981 raised concerns among various stake holders and groups. The issue of whether to include the position of Prime Minister or not has also been debated for many years. 2) Collection of public views. The Saitoti commission (the Constitution review commission established by Moi in 1990) had the objective of collecting views of Kenyans concerning how KANU was to operate in the best way possible. In June 2001, the CKRC, chaired by Yash Pal Ghai was mandated to collect views as part of the constitution review process. 3) Civic education. In 2001, the Ghai Commission was mandated and funded to provide civic education. 4) Convening of constitutional conferences. For example, The 2002 National Constitution Conference at Bomas of Kenya and other similar conferences. 5) Drafting of the constitution. This involved both local and international experts who drafted the constitution between 2000 and 2010. This was mainly the work of the Ghai led CKRC and the Committee of experts led by Nzamba Gitonga. 6) The referendum. During the 2005 referendum, the Wako constitution was rejected. In August 2010, another referendum was held and the 2010 proposed New Constitution was approved. 7) Promulgation of the constitution. On 27th of August 2010, President Mwai Kibaki presided over the promulgation of the new constitution of Kenya. **Constitutional Changes in Kenya since independence upto 2010** 1) The 1963 independence constitution marked the end of colonial rule and transformed the colony into a dominion. It established a parliamentary system with executive powers vested in a cabinet headed by a Prime Minister, who is appointed by the Queen of England from the majority party in Parliament. The Queen of England remained Head of State as represented by the Governor General who was also the Commander-in-Chief 2) By the 1stamendment Act 28 of 1964, published in November 1964, Kenya became a republic and the executive became presidential.

This amendment targeted Kenya Peoples Union (KPU) of Jaramogi Odinga that had been formed that year. The amendment was published, tabled, debated, passed and received presidential assent within 48 hours. (it was nicknamed the KPU amendment). 7) In May 1966, the Public Security Act was passed, published on 7thJune 1966, empowering the president to detain a citizen without trial on grounds of being a threat to state security. The president also acquired power to control freedom of the press. 8) In 1966, a constitutional amendment abolished the Bicameral Legislature and replaced it with a Unicameral Legislature, chosen directly by the electorate. The Act was published on 4th January 1967. The voting majority to change the Constitution was lowered to two-thirds of the MPs. 9) In 1968, by the 9th amendment, published on 12th April 1968, the president was empowered to alter provincial and district boundaries. The act abolished the provincial councils and all representatives to the provincial and district boundaries. This marked the end of regionalism. 10) In 1968, by the 10th amendment, Act 45 published on 12th July 1968, the procedure for presidential elections and succession in the event of his death was laid down.

The need to enhance unity and realize a liberal society due to political maturity. **Problems that Kenya faced in realization of a new constitutional dispensation.** a) Party differences have been transferred to the constitution making process e.g. the NARC fallout, the ODM wrangles between Raila and Ruto. Etc. b) Sectarian interests based on tribe, religion, age, sex which is hard to satisfy. E.g in relation to creation of counties, Kadhis court and land laws. c) Attempts to project personality, individual or group interests rather than national interest into the process. d) Direct misinformation of the public and propaganda by politicians and other groups with selfish interests. e) Illiteracy and ignorance of the electorate and therefore easily misled. f) Tension and sometimes violence marred the whole review process. g) Limited financial resources and personnel h) Lack of unity of purpose and co-operation among existing political parties hence difficulty in hammering out compromise.. i) Inadequate civic education/wrong civic education. j) Lack of consultation with all the interested stake holders. k) An attempt to tie the constitutional review process with election time-table, political programmes and interests. **Why Kenyas new constitution is regarded as supreme.** a) The Constitution is the supreme law of the Republic and binds all persons and all State organs at both levels of government. b) No person may claim or exercise State authority except as authorized under the Constitution. c) The validity or legality of the Constitution is not subject to challenge by or before any court or other State organ. d) Any law, including customary law that is inconsistent with the Constitution is void to the extent of the inconsistency, and any act or omission in contravention of the Constitution is invalid. e) The general rules of international law shall form part of the law of Kenya. f) Any treaty or convention ratified by Kenya shall form part of the law of Kenya under this Constitution. **Functions of the Kenyan constitution** a) It is the fundamental law of Kenya. b) It has helped in establishing the philosophy, character and structure of the Kenyan government. c) It has laid down principles which determine government power and duties. d) It r regulates, distributes and limits the functions of different institutions of the state. e) It spells out the basis of relationship between the Ke nyans and the government and what rights should be in that relationship. **Role played by the Kenyan constitution in governing the country** a) It protects the interests of the weak in the society from those who would want to dominate them. b) It checks the powers of the dictatorial rulers. c) It defines how to rise to power hence preventing unnecessary power struggles. d) It provides for the separation of powers between the three arms of government. e) It defines the powers of those in authority hence preventing misuse of power. f) It defines relations with other countries g) It specifies on how a government is to be formed. **DEMOCRACY AND HUMAN RIGHTS** **What is democracy?** The is derived from the Greek word Democratia (Demos meaning people and Kratas meaning rule or power). It is a form of government where political decisions are directly in the hands of the citizens. **Key aspects of a real democracy.** a) Political aspect. The consent of the governed (expressed directly or indirectly through their elected representatives) must be sought when making political decisions. Public opinion must be given priority in governance. b) Social aspect. Human dignity must be valued at all times. Every individual should be free to organize his own lifestyle, hold and express opinions, enjoy company of others and join associations. c) Economic aspect. All citizens must be provided with equal opportunities. Exploitation of humans by fellow humans should be eliminated. Means of production should be nationalized to reduce inequalities between the rich and the poor. **Types of democracy** 1) Pure or direct democracy. This is where the people are directly involved and participate in decision-making. Such a democracy has an advantage in that the laws made are easily accepted by all the people since they feel they own the laws. This is common form of democracy in smaller organizations and was also used in ancient Greece. 2) Indirect democracy. This is a type of democracy where citizens exercise their right in decision making not directly as individuals, but through their agreed representatives, elected by the citizens. Parliament acts as the basic institution in this type of democracy. The elected may make Appointments of persons to fill other positions like the Cabinet or carry out Nomination (hand-picking of additional representatives to join the elected ones. 3) Constitutional Democracy. This is where democracy is exercised but within the limits of the constitution. The minority rights are guaranteed (freedom of expression, association and worship).It is also referred to as Liberal democracy and is a form of representative democracy. **Merits of democracy** a) It is founded on the concept of the people and therefore leaders cannot ignore the people from whom they get authority to rule. It is most popular form of government. b) It recognizes equality among all the people without discrimination. It advocates equality before the law and anyone can rise to power regardless of ones background or environment. c) It promotes patriotism or national pride as it urges people to participate in their governance. This reduces chances of a revolution d) It promotes liberty and peace as it advocates for peaceful coexistence. People develop a sense of cooperation. It can also promote international cooperation when extended beyond the borders. e) Since it is based on moral and educative values, democracy helps individuals to develop their personality. It develops initiative of the people and their sense of responsibility. f) Democracy balances the liberty of the individual with the power of the state.**Demerits** **of democracy** a) Democracy promotes dictatorship by the majority. The majority government by fulfilling the election pledges to please the supporting electorate ends up neglecting the political, social and economic interests of the minority who did not vote for it. b) Democracy encourages class struggle and corruption as only those that possess money can engage in intensive campaigns and get elected due to their influence. Then once elected, they pass laws that protect their interests. c) A democratic government is usually slow and wasteful since consultations have to be made when making a decision. Time and public resources are used in the process of seeking the views of the majority. d) The ethical value of democracy is questionable. It is not easy to find an honest, sincere man of good moral character being elected. e) Democracy may perpetuate incompetence since it is numbers which matter when choosing a leader not the leadership qualities. Where a majority of the electorate is ignorant, they may make poor decision during elections thus promoting incompetence. f) Although democracy is regarded as the rule of the majority, in essence, it is the elected minority who rule. Democracy is therefore as a form of dictatorship by the informed or elected minority. **Principles of democracy.** ***Principle-basic truth or general law***. a) Freedom of speech, debate and enquiry. The basic healthy political culture among a group of people is based on open debate among citizens where they can express their views without fear. b) Peoples participation as a whole in government. Through free, fair and regular elections, the government should remain a servant of the people and not master. Democracy is based on consent which can be withdrawn if the government fails to satisfy peoples expectations. c) Open and accountable media. The media must be open in their agenda and be held accountable to the public. Media monopolies should not be allowed to develop. d) Economic democracy. This implies the decentralization of economic power so that individuals and communities can be economically empowered to create and control their own wealth. e) Equality before the law. Judgment should be made in accordance with a written law, rather than in an arbitrary manner. Each citizen also has an equal ability to seek and receive justice. ***Human rights*** Human rights refers to the accepted principles of fairness and justice- or the universal moral rights that belong equally to all people in their capacity as human beings regardless of sex, race, and tribe, and language, place of origin, age or political beliefs.

1**. EUROPEAN INVASION AND THE PROCESS OF COLONIZATION OF** **AFRICA** ***Introduction*** In the last Quarter of the 19th century, Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Belgium and Portugal were in Africa, competing for colonies to boost their social, economic and political standing.They convened the Berlin conference of 1884-1885 (convened by Otto Von Bismarck, the Germany Chancellor) where they shared Africa in Europe without regard to the inhabitants. This is what is termed the invasion of Africa.By 1914, apart from Liberia and Ethiopia, the rest of Africa had been colonized **The scramble and partition of Africa** **Scramble** It refers to the rushing for something.In the African situation, it meant the rush for and struggle by European powers to acquire various parts of Africa during the 19th century. **Partition** It refers to the sharing of something. In the African situation, it referred to the actual division of Africa by European powers during the Berlin conference of 1884 - 1885Methods used by Europeans to acquire colonies in Africa. **1) Signing of treaties**; a) Treaty signing with African leaders. ~ The British signed the Maasai Agreements (1904 and 1911), Buganda Agreement of 1900 and the Lewanika-Lochner treaty with Lozi. The royal Niger Company had by 1884, signed 37 treaties through George Goldie, with African leaders in Niger delta, Yorubaland and Gambia. ~ Carl peters signed treaties on behalf of Germany with the chiefs of Uzigua, Ukami, Usagara and ungulu. These treaties facilitated the acquisition of those areas for colonization. b) Treaties signed amongst European powers. These were known as Partition Agreements. For example; ~ The Anglo-Germany Agreements of 1886 and 1890 and Heligoland between the British and the Germans over the sharing of East Africa. ~ The Anglo Italian treaty signed in 1891 between the Italians and the British over possession of Eritrea and the Somali coast. ~ The treaty between the British and Portugal and France in 1890 on the sharing of Madagascar (France) Mozambique and Angola (Portugal). **2) Military conquest/ Use of force**. Europeans employed outright war against those societies that resisted their invasion. E.g a) The French war against the Mandinka of Samori Toure (1870-1899) and their conquest of western Sudan from Senegal to Chad specifically in the Tukolor Empire, Segu and Masina by 1898. Tunisia, morocco and Algeria were acquired forcefully. b) The British used military force in the Nandi resistance from 1895-1905, the Chimurenga wars involving the Shona/Ndebele against the British, forced acquisition of Egypt and Sudan c) The Germans fought the Maji Maji wars from 1905- 1907. d) The Italians were defeated during their Ethiopian campaign, by Menelik II in the battle of Adowa in 1896. e) The Portuguese forcefully established their rule over Angola, Guinea Bissau and Mozambique. **3) Use of missionaries as frontrunners.**The Europeans used missionaries, carrying a bible in one hand and a gun in the other, who tried to convince the Africans to support the European goals. ~ Missionaries manipulated local quarrels and took sides in a view to promote European occupation. For example, in the case of Buganda where we had religious conflicts between Protestants, Muslims, Catholics and Traditionalists. ~ Sometimes the missionaries went to war against each other and against Africans. E.g the Franza-Ingeleza war of 1892 that pitted the Protestants (British) against the Catholics (French). Fredrick Lugards intervention on the side of Protestants set stage for the acquisition of Uganda by the British. ~ In Bulozi, Father Francois Coillard convinced Lewanika of the benefits of British protection. ~ In Nyasaland (Malawi) which was depicted as Livingstones country, missionaries (read role of Scottish missionaries) shaped public opinion in favour of imperial control. **4) Treachery and Divide and rule policy** ~ The Europeans instigated inter-tribal wars causing some Africans to support them against warring communities. E.g. use of the Wanga against the Luo and the Luhya in Kenya, the Ndebele/shona against the Lozi in Rhodesia. ~ The Italians lied to Menelik II by signing a treaty of friendship but which was published in Italian version indicating that Ethiopia had agreed becoming an Italian protectorate. ~ The Maasai agreement was written in a language that the Lenana never understood. 5) Use of company rule. The British and the Germans used chartered companies to acquire and rule their colonies. For example, the role played by the British South African Company of Cecil Rhodes, Imperial British East African Company of Sir William Mackinnon and the German East Africa Company of Carl Peters. 6) Luring/enticements. The Europeans gave gifts like cloth, weapons tools, drinks etc to African chiefs like Lewanika of the Lozi and Mwanga of Buganda thus luring them into collaboration. 7) Diplomatic skills. This involved building relations with African leaders, which were later, used to acquire the areas. The British employed this method in Maasailand and Yorubaland. 8) A blend of diplomacy and force. The British for example initially signed treaties with the Ndebele (Moffat and Rudd treaties), but they fought them during the Ndebele war of 1897. **FACTORS THAT LED TO THE SCRAMBLE FOR COLONIES IN AFRICA** **Economic factors** ***1. The industrial revolution in Europe.*** a) The revolution led to search for markets for European manufactured goods in Africa resulting in scramble for and partition. b) The need for raw materials. The machines invented processed goods faster than use of hand. The Europeans came to Africa in search of raw materials like cotton, palm oil, copper and iron ore. c) Cheap labour was also readily available in Africa after the abolition of slave trade. d) There was desire by the entrepreneurs to invest excess capital gained from accumulation of profits from industrial investment. Africa provided an avenue for investment. e) Industrial revolution led to improved transport system, which was necessary for effective colonization. f) The military hardware manufactured during the revolution enabled Europeans to conquer African territories. g) The discovery of medicine enabled the Europeans to survive the African conditions and protect themselves from diseases such as malaria, yellow fever etc. h) Those who were rendered unemployed in Europe due to invention of machines had to move to Africa to assist in harnessing raw materials. i) Industrial revolution led to intense rivalry in trade, which was projected, into Africa. ***2. Speculation about the availability of deep pockets of minerals in Africa***. Gold and Bronze had been items of trade in Africa for centuries. The discovery of Diamond at Kimberly in the 1860s and Gold in the 1870s precipitated their appetite for Africa more. **Political reasons**. ***1. Unification of Germany after under Otto Von Bismarck after the Franco-***
***Prussian***war of 1870-71. The rise of Germany upset the balance of power in Europe and there was need to rebalance out through acquisition of colonies in Africa. France for example had to redeem her lost glory (especially after the loss of mineral rich Alsace and Lorraine provinces) by acquiring eight colonies in Africa.
***2. The rise of Public opinion in Europe**.*There was growth of public support towards the acquisition of colonies. With the rise of democracy in European states in the 19th c, it was fatal for any government to ignore public opinion. a) For example in 1882, due to public demand, the French assembly was compelled to ratify De Brazzas treaty with Chief Makoko thus creating a French colony in Congo. b) German took over South-West Africa (Namibia), Togo and Cameroon due to what Bismarck termed as public demand. c) In Britain, the public demanded that Britain must maintain her position as the leading colonizing power by taking her share in Africa. ***3. Militarism***. Army officers in Europe favoured colonial expansionist wars to give them greater opportunities for glory or promotion. a) For example, in Sudan, it was the military offers, in search of glory, and not the French government who directed the extent of French colonization. b) British soldiers like Wolseley Kitchener supported the expansion of the British Empire in Africa. ***4. The rise of Nationalism***. In Europe, there was the rise of a general feeling of civilians that their nations should acquire overseas colonies for national prestige. The Germans began feeling they belonged to a superior race that must be shown by acquiring colonies in Africa. **Strategic reasons** ***1. Construction of the Suez Canal***. (The Egyptian question). ~ The construction of the Suez Canal, opened in 1869, promoted a link between Europe and Asia/ shortened the routes to Far East. It also promoted international trade. It also made Egypt gain some strategic importance to Europeans. ~ The inability of Khedive Ishmael (1863-1879) to pay for the cost of the construction of the canal (due to his extravagancy) led to British full occupation of Egypt in 1882, being a major shareholder in the Anglo-Suez Company that owned the canal. ~ The dismayed French planned diversions of the Nile waters, and make Egypt a desert, after occupying territories to the south of Egypt. ~ It was against the backdrop that Britain claimed Uganda (source of the Nile) in 1894, Kenya (the gateway to Uganda) in 1895 and Sudan (where the Nile passes) in 1898. ***2. French activities in West Africa and the Congo*** The activities of France in Congo and West Africa, after loss of Egypt, through their Italian agent Savorgnan de Brazza in connection to acquisition of colonies alarmed other powers. This encouraged powers like Germany to join in the scramble and acquire Togo, Cameroon, Namibia and Tanganyika. ***3. The personal activities of King Leopold II of Belgium.*** ~ He endeavored to create a personal empire. In 1876, Leopold convened the Brussels Geographical Conference where he formed a business company, the International African Association comprising explorers and traders with a mission to civilize Africa, abolish slave trade and establish free trade. ~ As a result of the activities of his agent, Henry Morton Stanley who created the Congo Free State, Leopold had established a personal empire in 1884 . ~ It was the activities of king Leopold leading to intense rivalry amongst European nations over Congo that led to the convening of the Berlin Conference in 1884. **Social reasons** ***1. The work of Christian missionaries*** ~ They created an atmosphere of friendship with Africans by giving those gifts like cloths and beer, introducing economic activities like farming, carpentry, clerical work, among Africans, that were important virtues in the process of colonization. ~ Where they were in danger, they pressurized their home governments to protect them. ~ The missionaries had direct contact with the people of the interior of Africa and they were front-runners who paved way for the colonialists through their works. ~ They preached peace, love and hard work and hence calmed down the emotions of Africans towards the Europeans. ~ Some of them wrote exaggerated reports about Africa to convince Europeans to take interest in Africa. ***2. The growth of European population.***The growth of European population steadily to about 420 million in the 19th century led to the quest for new outlets to resettle the population.E.g Britain settled some of her people in Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada and South Africa. German, Portugal and Dutch also had to find places in Africa to settle some of their people. ***3. Anti-slave trade campaigns- Humanitarian factor***. The humanitarians in Europe like William Wilberforce and Granville Sharp, and the missionaries who led the crusade against slave trade advocated for colonization of Africa in order to stop it and introduce Legitimate Trade.When slave trade was abolished, many European nations used it as an excuse to remain in some parts of Africa, control the region, enforce the anti-slavery treaties, and promote legitimate trade. **The pull factors** a) Existence of Vast natural resources in Africa. There were pockets of minerals in various parts of Africa and ivory awaiting exploitation. This attracted the Europeans. b) Well developed trade/trade routes in the interior. Imperialists used these routes as transport routes to penetrate the interior. c) Existence of Navigable Rivers. For example, rivers like Congo and Niger made transportation easy d) Existence of weak Decentralized local communities. Most African communities were decentralized with no military structures therefore offering little resistance to European invasion. e) Frequent wars / inter community wars. These wars weakened African communities and were left ill prepared for any resistance. Some readily collaborated with the Europeans. **THE PROCESS OF PARTITION** The fore runners to the process of partitioning Africa were the early explorers, missionaries and traders. Their activities were succeeded by the making of treaties and agreements in various parts of Africa between trading companies and the locals. . For example, the Buganda Agreement, the Heligoland Treaty and the Berlin act of 1884- 1885.In places where the Europeans employed diplomacy, they won the support of many Africans who collaborated with the intruders. The Europeans sometimes blended diplomacy with wars of conquest or use of force especially against the resisting communities.The partitioning boundaries were drawn along physical features like rivers, mountains, etc.The Berlin conference On 15th November 1884, Britain, Germany, France, Belgium, the USA, Portugal and Italy convened in Berlin to lay down the rules for the partition and eliminate conflicts amongst European nations. Africans, whose continent was being shared, were not represented in the conference The Berlin Conference of 1884-85, partitioned Africa into different spheres of influence without recourse to war. **Terms of the Berlin act of 1884-1885.** a) That all signatories must declare their sphere of influence an area under each nations occupation b) That once an area is declared a sphere of influence, effective occupation must be established in the area through establishment of firm colonial infrastructures to be followed by colonial administration. c) That any state, laying claim to any part of Africa must inform other interested parties in order to avoid future rivalry. d) That any power acquiring territory in Africa must undertake to stamp out slave trade in favour of legitimate trade and safeguard African interests. e) That if a European power claims a certain part of the African coast, the land in the interior next to the coast became hers. f) That the Congo River and the Niger River basins were to be left free for any interested power to navigate. g) The European powers vowed to protect and safeguard European interests in Africa irrespective of their nationality. **Impacts of the Partition** **Political effects** a) Introduction of European administration minimized intertribal wars and civil strife. b) It led to development of strong African leadership and beginning of state formation. c) Colonial government structures inherited by most independent African states have continued to be models of governments in African countries. d) Rise of African nationalism to fight colonialism led to the development of African political awareness. e) The Europeans gained fame, prestige and national glory by having colonial possessions. f) Negatively, it led to collapse of African traditional political systems and leadership. g) Use of divide and rule promoted ethnic disunity that continues to trouble Africa many years after independence. h) Boundary creation split apart many African communities. For example, the Somali are found both in Kenya and in Somalia, the Maasai in Kenya and Tanzania and the Ewe in Ghana and Togo. i) In some cases some communities whose cultures were incompatible found themselves bunched together. **Social impacts** a) Through the protection offered to missionaries, it stimulated the spread of Christianity to various parts of Africa. b) It led to development of urban centres. Some towns grew as centres of administration e.g. Nairobi and Machakos. Others grew as railway terminus e.g. Kisumu. c) African welfare was boosted. Some African benefited from western education and health facilities introduced by the Europeans. d) European languages were introduced in Africa. e) Negatively, it created landlessness as European settlers appropriated African land. f) The Africans adopted some negative aspects of western culture. g) Many Africans lost their lives through resistance. **Economic effects** a) There was construction of roads, railway and other forms of infrastructure, which helped to open up the interior. b) Imperialization helped to widen market for African produce especially with the establishment of local industries. c) Africans were exposed to European manufactured goods/ increase in essential commodities. d) Partition speeded up the economic growth of European nations. e) Negatively, forced labour and exploitation of African resources left many parts of Africa impoverished and underdeveloped. f) Africans were exposed to heavy taxation and denial to participate in economic activities like farming, trade etc. **AFRICAN REACTION TO EUROPEAN COLONIZATION.** **RESISTANCE** Some communities were keen on defending their age-old and ancient political, social and economic institutions and viewed the arrival of the Whiteman with suspicion. Their leaders did not want to lose their power, wealth and sources of prestige. Others were militarily prepared for the Europeans. E.g the Mandinka, Nandi, Ndebele and Ethiopia. Some resisters were centralized states enjoying immense unity making it easy to mobilize people for a war. **The Maji Maji Rebellion (1905- 1907).** The Maji Maji Uprising in Tanganyika was the most significant African challenge to German colonial rule in its African colonies. The Uprising lasted two years c over 10,000 square miles. Tanzania had been acquired largely by Dr. Karl Peters, who signed treaties with the Chiefs of Usagara, Ungula, Uzigua and Ukami, in 1885. The Rebellion involved the Zaramo, Matumbi, Bena, Ngindo, Pogoro, Bunga, Ngoni, Luguru, Wamwera and Ndendeule **Causes of the maji maji rebellion.** 1. When Germany established its control over Tanganyika by 1898, it imposed a violent regime in order to control the population. Kings who resisted German occupation were killed. Africans resented the cruel, brutal, harsh and ruthless rule of the Germans. 2. Africans resented the Creation of new system of administration using Akidas and Jumbeswho terrorized the people and misused their positions. 3. The African population was also subjected to high taxation by the Germany East Africa Company to raise revenue for administration. The Matumbi on their part felt that the Germans should instead have paid the Africans for using their land. 4. The Africans resented a system of forced labour, whereby they were required to grow cotton and build roads for their European occupiers. The Africans were treated inhumanely while at work by the Akidas. 5. The Germans had no respect for African culture in that they misbehaved with Ngindo women. Crimes like rape, fornication and adultery, committed by the Germans were punishable by death among the Ngindo. 6. Christian missionaries discredited traditional belief and practices e.g. condemning sacred places as places of witchcraft. This greatly offended the Africans. 7. Germans had alienated land from Africans as a way of making the railway pay for the cost of its construction. The arrival of German settlers in U sambara area in 1898, Meru in 1905 and Kilimanjaro area in 1907 led to massive loss of African land. 8. Africans were forced to grow cotton in the communal cotton growing scheme, where they got very little payments. In 1902, Peters also ordered villages to grow cotton as a cash crop (for export) with each village, charged with producing a quota of cotton. This policy annoyed Africans who could no longer effectively work on their on farms to produce food. 9. The Ngoni were seeking revenge for the Boma Massacre of 1897 during which their soldiers were killed in large numbers. 10. The role of Kinjeketile Ngwale in instilling confidence in the Africans to unite and rise up against the Germans 11. The 1905, a drought that threatened the region making Africans incur heavy losses on a crop that was not even edible, combined with opposition to the government's agricultural and labor policies, became the immediate cause of the rebellion against the Germans in July, 1905. **Course of the maji maji war.** The oppressive regime bred discontent among the Africans, and resentment reached a fever pitch in 1905 when drought hit the region. A Ngarambe prophet, Kinjikitile Ngwale emerged, who claimed to know the secret to a sacred liquid which could repel German bullets called \"Maji Maji,\" which means \"sacred water.\" Ngwale claimed to be possessed by a snake spirit called Hongo.Thus, armed with arrows, spears, and doused with Maji Maji water, the first warriors of the rebellion began what would become known as the Maji Maji Rebellion. The rebellion was led by Kinjeketile Ngwale, Abdalla Mpanda and Ngamea. On July 31, 1905, Matumbi tribesmen marched on to Samanga and destroyed the cotton crop as well as a trading post. Kinjikitile was arrested and hanged for treason. However, Kinjekitiles ideas were spread widely through a whispering campaign called Njwiywia or Jujila by the Matumbi. Matumbi warriors uprooted cotton from an Akidas farm at Nandete to provoke the chiefs to fight. On August 14, 1905, Ngindo tribesmen attacked a small party of missionaries on a safari; all five, including Bishop Spiss (the Roman Catholic Bishop of Dar es Salaam) were speared to death. The Ngindo drove their hated Akidas from their area. They boycotted cotton picking.By August 1905, Germans were restricted to four military stations i.e. Wahenga, Kilosa, Iringa and Songea. The apex of the rebellion came at Mahenge in August 1905 where several thousand Maji Maji warriors attacked but failed to overrun a German stronghold. On October 21, 1905 the Germans retaliated with an attack on the camp of the unsuspecting Ngoni people who had joined the rebellion killing hundreds of men, women, and children. This attack marked the beginning of a brutal counteroffensive that left an estimated 75,000 Maji Maji warriors dead by 1907. Forces from Iringa under Captain Migmann assisted in the recapture of Kabata by Major Johannes.Reinforcement arrived from Germany and in 1907 warriors were defeated by Governor Graf Von Gotzen. The Germans employed the scorched earth policy which destroyed all property on sight. The Africans lost faith in the magic water. Some surrendered while others fled to Mozambique. **Consequences of the maji maji uprising** a) There was massive loss of lives. In its wake, the Maji-Maji rebellion left 15 Europeans and 389 African soldiers and between 75,000 and 100,000 insurgents dead. b) There was massive destruction of property, as villages and crops were burnt when Germans applied the scorched earth policy. c) Southern Tanganyika experienced severe famine as farms and granaries were destroyed. This disrupted economic activities such as agriculture and trade. d) Thousands of families were displaced during the war. This was because of the fear that gripped the land, forcing people to flee in different direction. e) The war undermined the German economy in Tanganyika, as numerous economic activities came to a standstill. f) There was loss of leadership in African communities which created disorganization and demoralized the African people. Most captured leaders were hanged or imprisoned. A total of 47 Ngoni chiefs were hanged. g) Africans resigned to colonial authority. The revolt broke the spirit of the people to resist and the colony remained calm, realizing they did not have better weapons to fight with. h) The uprising undermined the Africans confidence in their traditional religion. The magic water failed to protect them against the German bullets. i) The uprising laid the foundation to Tanganyikas Nationalism. The uprising would become an inspiration for later 20th Century freedom fighters who called for similar interethnic unity as they struggled against European colonial rule. j) Although the Maji Maji Uprising was ultimately unsuccessful, it forced Kaiser Wilhelm's government in Berlin to institute reforms in their Tanganyika administration as they realized the potential cost of their brutality. **Reforms introduced by the German administration after the maji maji uprising.** a) Corporal punishment was abolished by the German administration. Those settlers who mistreated their workers were punished. b) Forced labour for settler farms was abolished. c) Communal cotton growing was stopped and Africans were to plant their own cotton and get profit from it. d) Better educational and medical services for the Africans were introduced. e) Africans were involved in administration of the region as Akidas and Jumbes. f) Newspapers that incited settlers against Africans were censured. g) Kiswahili became an official language. h) A colonial department of the German government was set up in 1907 to investigate and monitor the affairs of the German East Africa. i) The new governor rejected extra taxation of Africans. j) Colonial administration in Tanganyika was now tailored to suit the Africans. **Role of religion in the Maji Maji rebellion.** a) It gave people courage, loyalty and confidence to fight the Germans. b) It gave spiritual strength to fight a superior force. c) Through religion, suspicions among communities were wiped out. d) Religion stood above tribal loyalty/all followed it regardless of tribe. e) Religious cults like bolero/kolelo promised people the destruction of the white man. f) It provided the ideology, which guided the war efforts. g) It sustained the morale of the warriors. h) It provided a common plan of action based on mass action i) It provided leadership during the war e.g. the prophetic leaders. j) It was used, to address the so many African grievances emanating from the harsh German rule. **The Mandinka Resistance.** **Samori Toure (c. 1830-1900)** One of the great kings and fighters of African freedom was the great Samori Toure. Born about 1830 in Sanankaro, SE of Kankan in present-day Guinea, Samori Toure chose the path of confrontation, using warfare and diplomacy, to deal with the French colonial incursion. His father was a Dyula trader, leading Toure to follow his familys occupation. In the 1850s, he enrolled in the military forces at Madina (present-day Mali) to liberate his mother, captured during a slave raid by king Sori Birama of Bisandugu. Displaying extraordinary military skill and prowess, he and his mother were subsequently released in 1858. Coupled with his experience as a Dyula trader, he built his army. Samori employed the triple thrust of persuasion, threat and war, in the same way as Sundiata did in Mali, to organized Malink chiefdoms and expand the Mandinka state. Between 1852 and 1882, Samori Toure had created the Mandinka Empire with the capital at Bisandugu, in present day Gambia.Samoris army was powerful, disciplined, professional, and trained in modern day warfare. They were equipped with European guns. The army was divided into two flanks, the infantry or sofa, with 30,000 to 35,000 men, and the cavalry or sere of 3,000 men. There was a third wing of 500 men forming specially trained bodyguards. In 1881, Samori extended the empire to the east as far as Sikasso (in Mali) to the west, up to the Futa Djallon Empire. Meanwhile, the French were extending eastwards from Futa Djalon while the Mandinka were extending westwards towards Kenyeran trading centre, Next to the rich Bure Gold fields.In 1882, at the height of the Mandinka empire, the Frenc h accused Samori Tour of refusing to withdraw from an important market center, Kenyeran (his army had blockaded the market). They thus started war on him. His bid to obtain assistance from the British to deal with the French failed as the later were not willing to enter into conflict with the French. From 1882 to 1885, Samori fought the French and had to sign infamous Bisandugu treaty on 28th march 1886 and then 1887. **Significance of the Bisandugu treaties (1886-1887**) a) To Toure, these were acts of delay the real confrontation that with the French that would come at an opportune time. b) He hoped that by this treaty, he would reach out at the British for a friendship treaty to enable him secure trade routes from the north under Tieba of Sikasso. c) The French on their part hoped to use the treaty to enable them to arrange the conquest of the Tukolor Empire. d) The treaties put the Mandinka under brief French protection. In 1888, he took up arms again when the French reneged on the treaty by attempting to foster rebellion within his empire. In 1890, he reorganized the army and concluded a treaty with the British in Sierra Leone, where he obtained modern weapons. He now stressed defense and employed guerilla tactics. **The Franco- Mandinka war (1891-1898)** **Causes of the Franco-Mandinka war (1891-1898)** a) Samori wanted to safeguard the independence and religion of his empire. Being a staunch Muslim, he could not tolerate non-Muslims on his land. b) He was not ready willing to lose the rich Bure Mines to the French whether through diplomacy or warfare. c) His empire was at that time enjoying military and economic superiority. The French incursion was merely a threat to his territorial expansion that was to be fought at all costs. d) His participation in trade had enabled him to acquire modern arms thus enabling him to build an equipped and well trained army which did not fear the encounter French. He even had facilities for arms repair. e) His scheme to play off the British against the French, between 1882 and 1889, had failed. This upset him and therefore left him only with the fighting option. f) The activities of the French of selling arms to his enemies such as Tieba of Sikasso were viewed by Samori as an act to weaken the Mandinka dominance. **Course of the franco-mandinka war.** Samori waged a seven year war against France whose army was led by Major Archinard. In 1891, with his improved weaponry and reorganized army, he defeated the French. In 1892, French forces overran the major centers of the Mandinka Empire, leaving death and destruction in their wake. In 1894, the French assembled all their troops in western Sudan (Senegal, Mali, Niger, etc) to fight Samori.Between 1893 and 1898, Samoris army retreated eastward, toward the Bandama and Como, resorted to the scorched earth tactic, destroying every piece of land he evacuated. He moved his capital east from Bisandugu to Dabakala, thus creating a second empire in 1893. This enabled him to delay the French. He formed a second empire, and moved his capital to Kong, in upper Cote dIvoire. **Disadvantages of Samoris second empire** a) He was cut off from Freetown where he used to buy firearms. b) He was at war with the communities, which he had attacked in his expansionist wars. c) His southern frontier was open to French attacks from the Ivory Coast. d) At his new empire, Samore was cut off from his gold mines at Bure thus; he had no wealth to keep his army running. e) The occupation of the Asante Empire by the British in 1896 meant that enemies from all corners surrounded Samori Toure. In 1898, Samori, forced to fight a total war against innumerable odds like famine and desertion that weakened his forces, was captured on September 29, 1898, in his camp in Gu (l) mou at the town of Sikasso in present-day Cte dIvoire and exiled to Ndjol, Gabon, where he died of pneumonia on June 2, 1900. **Factors that aided Samori Toure in offering a protracted resistance to the** **Europeans** a) He had established military workshops with a trained cadre of artisans whom he used to repair and manufacture his own weapons. This guaranteed regular supply of weapons during the resistance. b) He himself was a courageous fighter, a greater organizer and a military tactician and he personally commanded his army on the battlefield. c) His adoption of the Scorched Earth Policy as he mobilized the entire population to retreat left the French to starve and delay their advance. d) The success witnessed in trade enabled him to acquire guns and horses from the north, which were important in the resistance. e) Through trade and subsequent tribute collection, he obtained adequate wealth, which he used to maintain a large army. f) He had a large strong and well-organized army of 35,000 men, which was a formidable force for the French. g) He used diplomacy in dealing with the French to buy time to reorganize and strengthen his army, and to negotiate with the British in Sierra Leone to guarantee regular supply of guns. h) French soldiers were ignorant of the strange land they were fighting in and were faced with further problem of tropical disease. i) Some of his soldiers had served in the French colonial army and were thus familiar with the French tactics. j) He used Mandinka nationalism and Islam to unify the army. Many of Samoris soldiers believed that they were fighting a Jihad (holy war) and therefore fought with determination. **Why samori was finally defeated.** a) Since his army and community were constantly on the move, they could not engage in any gainful economic activity to replenish their supplies. b) The abandoning of the rich Bure Gold reserves as Samori retreated meant he had lost an important source of revenue that was initially used to sustain the army. c) When he moved to his second empire, He was cut off from Freetown where he used to buy firearms. d) Samori failed to get any support from other African societies due to lack of unity. Ahmed Seku of Tukolor and Tieba of Sikasso chose to rather assist the French than support Samori. e) His second empire was open to attack from all sides by either the British or the French, making it difficult to defend. f) The French had superior weapons and better means to re-equip their stores. They were also determined to defeat samori to set up an overseas colonial empire. g) The use of the scorched earth policy was resented by the civilians since it left them with nothing after destruction. It thus starred up local resistance. h) Even within his own empire, there was no total unity. The non-Mandinka communities and non-Muslims in the empire who had felt mistreated during his reign supported the French. i) The refusal by the British to assist Samori dented his hopes of getting a European ally against the French. j) Samoris retreat to Liberia was blocked and his capital besieged. He had to surrender to the French. **The Ndebele Resistance** **Background** The Ndebele were descendants of Nguni conquerors from South Africa (fleeing from the mfecane wars) who occupied what is now Matabeleland. Mzilikazi (Ndebele King) opened the door for the London Missionary Society led by Robert Moffat, who settled in Matabeleland in 1859. They assisted him in repairing his guns, inoculating cattle, writing and interpreting letters and providing medical care to the sick. Hehowever had little interest in Foreigners and even had those whose who accepted missionary influence killed. Mzilikazi died in 1868 and his son Lobengula took over.Lobengula was the Ndebele king at the outbreak of the Anglo-Ndebele war of 1893. He went to great lengths to appease the increasingly aggressive British imperialists from the South, Portuguese invasion from Angola and Mozambique and Germans from the south west. He used his diplomatic skills to buy time before engaging in war with the British. He even tried to pit one European nation against the other (the Boers and the British). He in 1870 had granted a mining concession to Thomas Baines of Durban Gold Mining Co. in order to diffuse white intervention. In 1888, Lobengula signed the Moffat treat y which stated that he was not to sign any other treaty with other European groups without British permission. Rhodes sent his partner and agent Charles Rudd to compel Lobengula to acquiesce to the Rudd (mining) Concession- a verbal agreement between Lobengula and BSA Co granting the company a mining monopoly in Matabeleland. In return, he was to get a gunboat on River Zambezi or 500 sterling ponds, a monthly salary of 100 sterling pounds, 1000 rifles and 100,000 cartridges. Lobengulas conditions for concession were not incorporated in the final text. When the terms of the treaty were interpreted to him, he learned that he had been tricked into surrendering his kingdom to Europeans.In 1889, he repudiated the treaty and sent a fruitless delegation of Indunas (Motshede and Babiyance) to London to meet Queen Victoria. Despite the Ndebele king's repeal of the concession, Rhodes, supported by the British crown, enacted a charter of the newly created British South Africa Company investing it with an array of rights: the right to ma.ke treaties, to pass laws and to subject the natives to its police force, as well as to make grants of minerals and land to white settlers. Lobengula was thus pushed into reluctant resistance by white greedy rapacity. **Causes of the 1893 Ndebele war.** 1. The Ndebele detested the treachery used by the British in compelling Lobengula to sign the Rudd Concession 2. British occupation of Matabeleland had ended Ndebele powers over the shona whom they always raided for cattle and women. 3. The British acts of provocation (inciting the Shona to raid the Ndebele for cattle). When the Ndebele chose to attack the shona, the British would then fight them under the pretext of protecting their interests in Mashonaland. 4. The attempt by the Ndebele indunas to punish some shona who disobeyed King Lobengula became the immediate cause. **Course of the war.** The war broke out in October 1893. The British army was led by Dr.Starr Jameson and comprised the shona police and other mercenaries from South Africa. At that time, the Ndebele had been weakened by smallpox and inferior weapons leading to little confrontation between them and the British. Lobengula chose to evacuate his people towards Northern Rhodesia. Atthe two battles of Shangani River and Mbembezi. The Ndebele were defeated by superior European gun-fire. Lobengula finally fled to Bulawayo where he died in 1894. The conquerors took advantage of the natives' inner divisions, with people of the low castes remaining passive and even some traitors helping the invaders. The aftermath of the British conquest in Zimbabwe was that cattle were seized from the natives and their land taken. Even the for the small plots that were left to them, Africans were often forcibly prevented from ploughing and sowing, since they were subjected to tax-collection and coerced labour in whiteowned farms. The Ndebele were pushed to the reserves of Gwaai and Shangani. **Second Matabele War (the Chimurenga war 1896-1897)** The war of liberation which was dubbed Chimurenga, or the Second Matabele War was a fulfillment of prophesy of a great Shona spirit, Mbuya Nehanda, sister of the great Shona prophet Chaminuka. Mlimo, the Ndebele spiritual leader is in fact credited with fomenting the Second Ndebele War. He convinced the Ndebele that the White settlers were responsible for the drought, locust plagues and the cattle disease rinderpest ravaging the country at the time. **Causes of the Chimurenga war** a) The war broke out because the Shona and the Ndebele feared disruption of their age- old and valued trade and trade routes. b) They fought for economic and trade independence. The company had stopped shona Gold and ivory trade with the Portuguese and forced them to trade only with the company only and at low exchange rates. c) They were fighting against land alienation. The BSA Company had alienated the Ndebele land and pushed them to the Gwaai and Shangani reserves that had no water and were infested with tsetseflies. d) The war eroded the Ndebele traditional authority. When Lobengulas sons were sent to South Africa by Rhodes for education, they were denied chance of succeeding their father. e) They detested the removal of the rights of chiefs to allocate land. The British ruined the regimental system and refused to recognize the power of the indunas and Ndebele laws. f) The British began to assume the rights to punish the subjects on behalf of the chiefs. Sometimes even the chiefs were also punished. E.g, Chief Moghabis village was burnt. g) They revolted against taxation which was an interference with their economic independence. The hut tax, introduced in 1894 was collected with much brutality. h) The Ndebele were not pleased with the recruitment of the shona in the police force. They felt humiliated as the shona took the chance to revenge for the many years of oppression. i) They resented the general brutality of the whites when dealing with the Africans, like threatening the black people with punishment just before pay, to cause them to run away. j) They wanted the removal of the policy of forced labour on European mines and farmswhere workers operated under deplorable conditions, often whipped with syambok (whip) and worked for long hours without chance to engage in activities of their choice. k) The company disregarded the Ndebele customs especially the class system. They treated everybody equally, including the Holi who were traditionally slaves to the Ndebele aristocrats. The traditional leaders were sometimes flogged before their subjects. l) The confiscation, by the company, of 250,000 head of cattle in 1893 from the Ndebele. Leaving them with only 50,000 affected by cattle disease. The rights to raid the shona for cattle was also denied. m) The people were resented more by the Natural calamities that continued to afflict them and which religious mediums like Mlimo blamed on the presence of the whites. n) The influence of the Mwari cult leaders who urged people to resist with an assurance of victory against the British and immunity against the European bullets. **Course of the war**. Mlimo's call to battle happened at a time when the BSA Co's Administrator General Matabeleland, Leander Starr Jameson, had sent most of his troops to fight the Transvaal Republic in the ill-fated Jameson Raid in Dec. 1995 leaving the country's defenses in disarray. War in Matabeleland.On 29th March 1896, the Ndebele High Priest Umlugulu, with senior indunas, organized a ceremony to install Umfezela as Lobengulas successor. On that day, The Ndebele rebels killed the whites on their farms as they found them by surprise. They also killed African policemen in the British force. The European settlers took refuge in fortified camps in Bulawayo, Gwelo, Belingwe and Mangwe.The British immediately sent troops to suppress the Ndebele and the Shona, but it cost the lives of many settlers, Ndebele, and Shona alike. The Matabele military defiance ended only when Burnham found and assassinated Mlimo, thanks to a Zulu informant. The Ndebele finally agreed to peace talks with Rhodes during which Rhodes agreed to disband the shona police and give the Ndebele headmen some powers as indunas. **The War in Mashonaland** On 17 June 1896, the Hwata dynasty at Mazowe attacked the Alice Mine. They succeeded in driving away the British settlers from their lands on 20 June 1896. In the same month, Mashaykuma, working with the local spiritual leader Kagubi, the Zezuru Shona people in killing a British farmer Norton and his wife at Porta Farm in Norton. With the war in Matabeleland ending in October 1897, Gen. Carrington was able to concentrate his forces on Mashonaland. Nehanda Nyakasikana and Kagubi Gumbo- reshumba were captured and executed in 1898, but Mkwati, a priest of the Mwari shrine, was never captured and died in Mutoko. Traditional leaders played a major role in the rebellion, notably Chief Mashayamombe, who led resistance in Mhondoro, Gwabayana, Makoni, Mapondera, Mangwende and Seke. **Role of religion in the organization of the S hona Ndebele resistance** a) Religion united the Shona and Ndebele who had hitherto been bitter rivals. / The two communities entered a common plan of action. b) It boosted and sustained the morale of the masses and gave them spiritual strength to fight a might force. c) Religion was used as a base of mass action. It provided the resistance with a common ideology. Much of the ideology used was derived from Umlugulu, the chief priest of the Ndebele Nyamanda, Lobengulas eldest son and Mlimo, the medium of Mwari Cult d) Religious leaders provided leadership to the war against white aggressors who were considered immoral and brutal. e) The Mwari Cult provided an important organization link between the Ndebele and shona since it was widespread. f) The most important representatives of the Mwari Cult were Mkwati and Singinyamatse who were the backbone of the spiritual unity of the Ndebele. **Why the Ndebele and shona were defeated** a) Disunity among Africans and between Shona and Ndebele. They fought on different fronts. Even some African communities supported the British against the shona and Ndebele. b) The Ndebele social class lacked unity of purpose. The former aristocrats fought on their own while the former slave classes chose to even cooperate with the British. c) British soldiers were well trained as compared to African soldiers. They also got reinforcement from Botswana and South Africa. d) The arrest and execution of African leaders like Nehanda, Kagubi and Singinyamatse demoralized the people. e) The British had superior weapons as compared to African inferior weapons. f) The magic failed to protect them against the enemy bullets. Many people were killed by the British including the leaders of the Mwari cult. g) The determination of Cecil Rhodes, who negotiated for peace with Ndebele thus ending the war. This made the suppression of the Shona by the British easy. **Results of the war.** a) The Africans lost their independence as the British established their authority over them. b) There was an enormous loss of life and property. c) The African land was alienated and they confined to reserves d) Africans in reserves were be subjected to forced labour. e) The war led to rapid spread of Christianity as the local people lost faith in their religion. f) The Ndebele indunas gained recognition as headmen. g) The Africans were exposed to severe famine, as the war hindered farming. h) The colonial office in London lost confidence in company rule due to its poor administration. **COLLABORATION** ***What is collaboration?*** This was a style in which Africans responded to European intrusion through diplomacy, adaptation or allying with the Europeans for military support and for material gains **Reasons for collaboration by some African communities.** a) Some African kings needed to safe guard themselves against internal and external enemies. e.g. Lewanika of Lozi who was facing threat from the Ndebele and the Ngoni. b) Others wanted to promote trade with the imperialists so that they can gain material wealth. For example, the Wanga and the Shona. c) Influence of the missionaries who convinced some African leaders to collaborate in order to get western education and civilization. E.g, Franois Coillard encouraged Lewanika to collaborate with the British. d) In some communities, there was need for protection against other European powers e.g. the Lozi against the Portuguese. e) Others were merely in need for assistance to gain regional supremacy. E.g the Maasai who were on downward trend as the Nandi were raising. f) To some it was a means of showing courtesy visitors assuming that they would leave soon and being ignorant of European intentions. For example, Kabaka Mwanga of Buganda. g) Other African leaders influenced some communities. For example, Chief Khama influenced Lewanika of the Lozi to resist. h) Having witnessed the European military might against the resisting neighbours some communities saw it futile to resist stronger force **The Lozi Collaboration** **Factors, which influenced Lewanika of the Lozi to collaborate with the British** a) Lewanika was encouraged to collaborate with the British by King Khama of Botswana who had already benefited from British protection against the Dutch in South Africa. b) The European missionaries who had visited him earlier influenced Lewanika. For example, Franois Coillard who convinced Lewanika to ally with the British to gain western education. c) Lewanika needed support against Portuguese and Germans who were approaching his territory. d) Lewanika wanted the British to protect his kingdom from attacks by other African communities such as the Ndebele and Shona-protection against African enemies. e) Lewanika also wanted the British to protect him against internal enemies e.g. in 1884, Lewanika faced an internal rebellion-to safeguard his position. f) Lewanika desired western education especially for his sons and civilization in his country. g) Desire for promotion of trade between Britain and his people. He was keen on acquiring European goods such as firearms for territorial defence. h) He was fearful and considered it futile to resist a strong military force like Britain. **How Lewanika collaborated with the British.** Signing of treaties e.g. he first signed a treaty with Harry Ware in 1889 before signing the Lochner Treaty of 1890 and the Corydon Treaty of 1898. These treaties put Bulozi under British protectorate.Lewanika became friendly to British agents like Frank Lochner and the missionary, Franois Coillard, whom he allowed to establish a permanent mission station within his territory. He sent his sons to the Coillard mission school as a show of acceptance of westernization. **Lochner Treaty of 1890.** It was British missionary Francois Coillard who negotiated for the meeting between Frank Lochner, acting on behalf of Rhodes, and Lewanika in 1890. The treaty put Lewanikas Kingdom under the protection of the British South African Company. **Terms of the treaty.** a) Lewanika gave the BSA Company mining rights in Bulozi except in certain farming and iron mining areas. b) The company promised to protect the kingdom from outside attacks. c) The British company promised to pay the king 2000 sterling pounds a year and 4% royalties of all minerals mined in the area. d) A promise was made to develop trade, build schools and develop telegraphy in the kingdom. e) Lewanika would still be a king but just a constitutional monarch, not an absolute ruler as before. f) That a British resident would be posted in Lealui, the capital of the Kingdom, to monitor company activities and advise Lewanika on foreign affairs. The treaty consequently implied that Lewanika had given up his kingdom to the British company.In 1897, Robert T. Coryndon a former police officer was sent as a British resident in Bulozi. Upon his arrival, he made arrangements for the signing of the Lawley treaty of 1898 which further reduced the size of the area governed by Lewanika. In October 1900, he signed another treaty, the Coryndon Treaty with Lewanika. The Coryndon Treaty (1900) ***It had the following terms;*** a) The British government would be responsible for administration of Bulozi. The company administrator would answer to the High Commissioner at the cape. b) The company would appoint officials and pay for the administration of the area. c) The company would provide schools, industries, postal services, transport and telegraphic facilities. d) Lewanika would receive only 850 sterling pounds a year as his stipend. e) The company was allowed to acquire land on the Batoka plateau. f) The company maintained its rights to prospect for mineral in Bulozi. g) Lewanika was to stop slavery and witchcraft in his area. h) Lewanika was made paramount chief of Barotse. His powers were reduced more when more white settlers arrived in 1905 ready to participate in government. NB; the Coryndon treaty made Lewanika a mere employee of the company, receiving only a stipend. He lost control of the former vassal states that no longer would pay tribute to him since they were now under the British.In the final run, Lewanika lost his independence just like any other collaborator or resistor. **Results of Lewanika collaboration** a) Schools and health centres were put up in his kingdom. b) He got British protection from Ndebele attacks. c) It marked the beginning of the erosion of the independence and traditional authority of his empire. Lewanika lost his authority as the administration was taken over by the British South Africa Company d) The British recognized Lewanika as a paramount chief of Barotse and gave him necessary protection. e) Lewanika received payment of 2000 yearly f) The British South Africa Company took over the control of the minerals g) The Lozi land was alienated and given to British settlers h) The Lozi were later forced to pay taxes in order to maintain the administration. i) The Lozi were forced to work as labourers on settlers farms j) The Lozi were employed in the civil service k) The British South Africa Company developed infrastructure in Barotseland l) The British used Barotseland as a base to conquer the neighbouring communities. **The Buganda collaboration.** By the mid 19th century, Buganda had become the most powerful state in the interior of East Africa. However despite this might, the Kabakas (Mutesa I and Mwanga) chose the path of collaboration instead of resisting the European intrusion. **Why kabaka Mutesa I (1856-1884) collaborated with the Europeans.** a) His kingdom was under threat form Khedive Ishmael of Egypt. He therefore wanted British assistance against the Egyptian threat. b) There was threat from his traditional enemy, Omukama Kabalega of Bunyoro Kingdom. c) Mutesa wanted to establish a centralized religious authority over Buganda to counter there power wielded by the traditional priest of the Lubaale Cult and the Muslim power and influence. d) He wanted modernization and to gain Prestige from association with the Europeans. For example, western education, medicine and other material benefits. e) He had the desire to trade with Europeans to get their goods especially firearms. **Kabaka Mwanga (1884-1898)** Mwangas main problem when he took over power was religious indecision which eventually generated political instability. In January 1885, he executed three C.M.S converts. In October 1885, he had Bishop Hannington killed. In May 1886, 30 young converts were burnt to death at Namugongo for refusing to denounce their Christian faith. In 1888, under the urge of the traditionalists, he unsuccessfully attempted to expel all foreigners whom he blamed for causing chaos in his kingdom. He instead was disposed by a combined force of Muslims, Catholics and Protestants and replaced by his brother Kiwewa, sharing authority with foreigners.In 1890, Mwanga recaptured the throne assisted by the Christians and Kabalega of Bunyoro kingdom. He signed a protectorate treaty with Carl peters for the Germans and rejected a treaty offer by Fredrick Jackson of IBEACO. IN 1891, Mwanga signed a treaty of collaboration with Fredrick Lugard, the First British administrator sent to Uganda. This was after the Heligoland Treaty of 1890 had put Uganda a British sphere of influence. **Why Mwanga collaborated** a) He wanted to acquire protection from internal and external enemies e.g religious groups and Banyoro. b) He wanted to secure his position and safeguard the Baganda from interference. c) He wanted the British to help him Gain regional supremacy over the surrounding kingdoms of Bunyoro, Ankole and Toro.However, throughout all the religious conflicts that continued in Uganda between the Protestants and the Catholics, Kabaka Mwanga always supported the Catholics to the Chagrin of the British administrators. He was disposed by Lugard in 1894 after the capture of his palace at Mengo.Under Kabaka Mwanga II, Buganda became a protectorate in 1894. This did not last and the Kabaka declared war on Britain in on July 6, 1897. He was defeated at the battle of Buddu on July 20 of the same year. He fled to German East Africa where he was arrested and interned at Bukoba. The Kabaka later escaped and led a rebel army to retake the kingdom before being defeated once again in 1898 and being exiled to the Seychelles.While in exile, Mwanga II was received into the Anglican Church, was baptized with the name of Danieri (Daniel). He spent the rest of his life in exile. He died in 1903, aged 35 years. In 1910 his remains were repatriated and buried at Kasubi.The war against Kabaka Mwanga II had been expensive, and the new commissioner of Uganda in 1900, Sir Harry H. Johnston, had orders to establish an efficient administration and to levy taxes as quickly as possible. This he did through the Buganda Agreement of 1900 **The Buganda agreement** The Buganda agreement was signed in 1900 between Sir Harry Johnstone, British Official, and Apollo Kagwa, representing the Baganda **Reasons for signing of the Buganda agreement** a) The treaty was to define the position of Buganda in the country. b) To introduce law and order in the country. c) To reduce the cost of British administration since Buganda was to meet the cost of administration. d) To define the relationship between Buganda and the British government. **Terms of the Buganda agreement** a) The Buganda laws were to remain in effect as much as they did not interfere with protectorate laws that were to be applicable to Buganda Kingdom as well. Bugandakingdom was to be ruled by the Kabaka with the assistance of Katikiro. The Lukiko was to be the legitimate body making laws of Buganda and it was to compose 89 members. b) Buganda people were to pay poll and hut tax. However, No tax was to be levied on Buganda unless approved by the Lukiko (parliament). Revenue from Buganda was to be merged with all the revenue from other provinces. c) The kabaka, ministers and Chiefs to be paid since they were now employees of the British government. d) Buganda boundaries were defined to include parts of Bunyoro (the ten sazas she had acquired from Bunyoro). The kingdom was therefore expanded to twenty counties. To ease administration, each county was placed under a Saza Chief. e) Land tenure system was changed to include land on freehold basis (Mailo land) and crown land. The crown land was for protectorate government while the Mailo land was particularly for the kabaka, his ministers and his chiefs. f) Though Buganda became a province within the protectorate, Ganda system of government was recognized and modified. It was to have three ministers (katikiro, treasurer and chief justice.). The Lukiko had fixed number- 20-saza chiefs, 60 notables and 6 Kabakasappointees. **Results of the Buganda agreement.** a) British overlord ship was confirmed over Buganda. b) Buganda was reduced to a status of a mere province. c) The position of the king was reduced he lost his power to give or withhold land as well as the power to appoint or transfer chiefs. d) The 1900 Agreement led to the birth of early nationalistic movements. For example, the Bataka Opposition Movement in the 1920s by the landless class people rising up against the land-owning group. e) Modern economy and western education were introduced with Buganda taking the lead. f) Buganda formed the basis for the British administration as baganda were appointed as British administrators. g) It strengthened the special position of Buganda in relation to other communities in Uganda. h) Sazas were increased from 10 to 20 and saza chiefs got land and right to impose land rent. i) It led expansion of Christianity and decline of Islamic influence. j) Bunyoro kingdom became aggrieved as results of loss of part their territory that was transferred to Buganda by the British. This caused friction later. **Results of African collaboration** a) Just like resistors, the collaborating communities also lost their independence and were eventually colonized. Bulozi and Buganda finally became British Protectorates. b) The collaborating community leaders gained some recognition, though with reduced powers. Lewanika foe example became the paramount Chief of Barotseland while Kabaka gained the title, His Highness. c) The collaborators were able to secure some amount of protection from their traditional enemies. The Lozi were protected from the Ndebele while the Baganda were protected from the Banyoro. d) The collaborators were used by the Europeans to exert their authority over other African societies. The baganda on their part were used to administer Busoga. e) The collaborating Africans gained from missionary work. Lewanikas sons for example gained western education. Hospitals and schools were also built in the kingdoms. f) There was increased trade between the collaborating communities and the Europeans. The communities gained European goods such as glassware, clothes, guns and ammunition. g) The collaborators just like resistors were later subjected to economic exploitation such as land alienation, mining, taxation and forced labour. **ESTABLISHMENT OF COLONIAL RULE IN KENYA** **CAUSES OF THE SCRAMBLE FOR EAST AFRICA** **Factors that contributed to the scramble and partition of East Africa** ***1. The rise of Nationalism in Europe. The Unification of Germany, after the***Franco- Prussian war (1870-71) upset the balance of power in Europe and there was need to rebalance out through acquisition of colonies in Africa including east Africa. The Germans also felt that the only way their nation could gain recognition among other European powers was through securing colonial possession. ***2. Strategic location of East Africa in relation to Egypt. Europeans were concerned*** with the source of the river Nile in East Africa and control of the Suez Canal. Therefore, the ownership of East Africa was crucial to the Egyptian affairs. East Africa, had, from the days of the Portuguese conquest in the 15th century, proved to be a strategic location for fresh supplies. That is why the Germans and the British competed for possessions in the region. ***3. The need to speed up economic development of the European countries. The*** industrializednations were rushing for colonies to tap raw materials to keep their factories running. There was also a popular believe that East Africa contained pockets of precious metals awaiting exploitation. They were also driven by the search for market for European produced goods. The Europeans were also looking for places to invest their capital. ***4. The rise of Public opinion in Europe. There was growth of public support***towards the acquisition of colonies. E.g., the Daily Press in London spoke well about acquiring colonies. ***5. Social factors.*** ~ East Africa was to be occupied as a means of stamping out slave trade and replacing it with legitimate trade. ~ The Europeans were keen on spreading their culture to east Africa. ~ They wanted to protect their missionaries who were already operating in east Africa **The process of Partition** The Berlin conference failed to fully resolve the rivalry between the Germans and the British in East Africa. The activities of Karl Peters and Harry Johnstone for the Germans and the British respectively in the Mount Kilimanjaro region depicted intense rivalry which almost led to war.The two signed treaties with local chiefs as a way of legalizing their arbitrary declaration of their spheres of influence. Karl peters even declared german protectorate over Ungulu, Uzigua, Usagara and Ukami.These activities together with those of Sir William Mackinnon of the Imperial British East Africa Company became the immediate cause of the partition of east Africa.The partition of East Africa was sealed through the following two treaties. **The Anglo-German Agreement of 1886** The agreement facilitated peaceful settlement of the german and British claims on east Africa as follows; a) The Sultan was given the 16 KM (10mile) coastal strip from Vanga to Lamu. He also acquired islands of Zanzibar, Pemba, mafia, Lamu, pate and Towns like Lamu, Kisimayu, Mogadishu, Merca, and Brava. b) Germany acquired the coastline of Witu the region between river Umba in the North and river Ruvuma in the south. c) The British got the territory north of river Umba up to river Juba in the north. However, the treaty failed to determine the western boundary, thus leaving Uganda up for grab to any power that got there first. Uganda therefore became a theatre of intense rivalry between Karl Peters who even secured a treaty with Kabaka Mwanga in 1890 and Fredrick Lugard who tried in vain to sign a treaty with Kabaka Mwanga. This tension is what led to the Heligoland Treaty of 1890. **Terms of the Heligoland Treaty of 1890** a) Germany officially recognized Uganda as a British sphere of influence/protectorate. b) Germany abandoned her claim over the territory of Witu for British in exchange for Heligoland island in the North sea c) Germany accepted British protectorate over Zanzibar and Pemba. d) Germany acquired a strip of land on Lake Tanganyika from Britain and the Coastal region of Tanganyika from the Sultan of Zanzibar. e) The Sultan of Zanzibar retained a 16km (10 miles) Coastal strip. This treaty thus ended the scramble for and partition of East Africa. **BRITISH OCCUPATION OF KENYA** **Methods used by the British to occupy Kenya.** a) Signing of treaties. The following treaties were signed either by the British or on behalf of the British to facilitate their occupation of Kenya; ~ A treaty by Sir William Mackinnon and the Sultan of Zanzibar Barghash in 1887 which effectively put Zanzibar under the British for 50 years. ~ The Maasai Agreements of 1904 and 1911 between Oloibon Lenana and the British ~ The Anglo-Germany Treaties of 1886 and 1890. b) Collaboration. The British collaborated with communities like the Wanga and Maasai who were later used as bases to extend British Authority over other areas. c) Establishing operational bases. The British built Forts like Fort Smith (Kabete) and Fort Hall (Muranga) to enhance their political control. d) Use of company Rule. In the initial stages, due to the fear of the enormous costs of effective occupation and administration, the British mandated the IBEA. Company to administer the Kenyan protectorate.The Imperial British East Africa Company of Sir William Mackinnon was given the royal charter in 1888 and thus had the following new powers; a) Levying and collecting taxes and institute custom duties in the area. b) Establishing political authority and Maintain of law and order in the British East Africa. c) Promoting legitimate trade and Eradicate slave trade d) Developing and civilizing the indigenous peoples with the assistance of the imperial consul based in Zanzibar. **Achievements of the IBEAC.** a) The company succeeded in quelling local aggression in the British spheres of influence from communities such as the Nandi, Maasai and Akamba. b) The company established a series of Forts at Kibwezi, Machakos, Smith and Dagoretti, which laid the basis for colonial administration in Kenya. c) The company improved transport and communication in the protectorate by pioneering road construction in Kenya. For example the Sclaters Road between Kibwezi and Busia in 1894 which assisted in transportation of railway building materials. d) The company succeeded in eradicating slavery to some extend and securing freedom for many slaves. e) The company also developed a rubber industry along the coast and the interior. **Reasons why Britain used the IBEA Company to administer her possession** a) Absence of a clear policy on the administration of colonial possessions. This gave room to the use of the company to administer the colony. b) The company could provide cheap administrative capital that Britain had failed to raise for colonial governance. The colonies were not yet economically viable c) There was a problem of inadequate personnel to be used in the administration of the colonies. d) I.B.E.A.Cos long experience in the region. The company had invested heavily in east Africa, hence making its participation in the administration of the colony inevitable. **Why company rule had failed by 1895.** a) The region lacked strategic natural resources for export thus making the IBEACO, a trading company, to operate at a loss and narrow its revenue base. Minerals like Gold, copper and Diamond were not existent. b) The company lacked sufficient capital to carry out the day- to- day administrative operations. The company had spent the little funds available in the construction of fortified trading stations, with little reward. c) Transportation of goods in the region proved expensive and slow as the region did not have any navigable rivers d) The company faced the problem of poor coordination of its activities caused by lack of proper channels of communication between the head office in Europe and the offices in the colony. e) Some of the company officials were corrupt and therefore misappropriated funds. f) The company faced numerous resistances especially in the Nandi country thus disrupting their operation. At one time, Fort Smith was set on fire by African resisters. g) Some of the company officials lacked experience in administrative matters since most of them came merely as traders. h) The company officials also were affected by the harsh tropical climate and diseases like malaria and sleeping sickness that killed many. The company thus surrendered the Charter in 1895 to the British government for a compensation of 250,000 dollars **Factors facilitated the establishment of the British control over Kenya during the** **19th century?** a) The Christian missionary factor. They created an atmosphere of friendship with Africans, which was important for colonization. They also occasionally called home for protection against hostile communities. b) Presence of trading company (IBEACO. The companies through their agents signed treaties with African rulers and among themselves as a means of initiating effective occupation of Kenya. c) Superior military power/good army. The European armies were more efficient than he African ones. This was witnessed in the ability to quell the numerous wars of resistance like the Nandi resistance. d) Disunity among African communities. By the time the British came to East Africa, the Wanga were up against the neighboring communities in western Kenya, the Nandi and the Maasaiwere at war and the Mijikenda against the coastal Arabs over land. This was of advantage to the British. e) Signing of treaties. There was Collaboration of some communities with the British. The Maasai signed the Maasai Agreement of 1900. The Wanga also signed various treaties with the British. f) The British policy of indirect rule was readily acceptable, thus reducing the chances of resistance. g) Financial support from the home government. **KENYA PEOPLES RESPONSES BRITISH INVASION OF KENYA** Africans in Kenya offered varied responses to the British intrusion into their country. Some resisted while other collaborated.The communities that resisted actively included the Nandi, Agiryama, Bukusu, Somali and sections of the Agikuyu **The Nandi Resistance (1895-1906)** **Reasons why the Nandi resisted British occupation of their land** a) The Nandi had gained a lot of pride, having subdued their neighbours E.g the Luo, Maasai, Abagusii and Abaluhyia. At that time, they were enjoying a sense of superiority that gave them confidence to take the British Intruders head-on. b) The Nandi military superiority made them feel equal if not superior to the whites. Their warriors were well- trained and equipped and had gained a lot of experience through the numerous cattle raids the conducted against their neighbours. c) The Nandi detested the physical appearance of the white people which they considered as evil and must be expelled from their community. d) The Nandi were opposed to Land alienation by the British. They disliked the grabbing of their land for railway construction/white settlement. e) Kimnyoles prophecy that foreigners would dominate the Nandi motivated them to fight against the Europeans. f) The Nandi had a long history of resisting and fighting intruders. They had successfully warded off the Arab and Swahili traders in the 1850s. g) The Nandi resisted as a means of safeguarding their independence which they had enjoyed for a long time. h) The Nandi also enjoyed unity under the leadership of Koitalel Arap Samoei between 1895 and 1905. This had helped them to register numerous victories against neighbouring communities. They therefore felt strong enough to resist the British. **Course of the Nandi rebellion** The Nandi wars of resistance began in 1895. The Nandi mainly employed guerilla warfare ambushing the caravan traders and mail carriers who passed in their territory. When two Nandi warriors strayed into the Guasa Mesa administrative camp headed by Andrew Dick in 1895, he murdered them as a response to the attacks by the Nandi on foreigners passing in their territory.The Nandi retaliated through the murder of a British trader, Peter West and thirty of his workers. This sparked off British punitive expeditions against the Nandi with the first in 1897 which however failed to stop the Nandi raids. When the railway reached the Nandi territory, they refused to cooperate with the railway builders and even kept stealing building materials to make weapons and ornaments. They even ambushed and murdered railway builders.In 1900, the British sent three punitive expeditions under Colonel Evatt, the commander of the Uganda Rifles reinforced by the Maasai, Baganda, Swahili and Indian mercenaries.The Nandi were supported by the Kipsigis enabling them to resist for so long causing high death toll on the British and the Nandi as well.The year 1901 witnessed a temporary truce worked out by the British administrator, Walter Mayes (1901-1905), after realizing the heavy causalities both sides were experiencing. The war was re-ignited when the Nandi realized that the British had started settling and farming on their land. They destroyed the railway in protest. The British reacted by destroying crops and villages and stealing cattle for the next three years. The Nandi war of resistance only ended when the British officer in Nandi, Captain Meinertzhagen, hatched a plan to have Koitalel, the chief coordinator of the rsistance, killed. He and his advisers were killed in October 1905, during a peace meeting convened by Meinertzhagen. The Nandi finally sought for peace in December 1905 ending the ten year long resistance. **Why the Nandi offered the longest and strongest ever resistance to the British** **intrusion in Kenya.** a) The British intrusion into their territory happened when the Nandi were at the best of their power and superiority. b) Existence of a superior military organization based on the age set system. The Nandi army was strong and could match any foreign force. The regimental age-set system supplied the Nandi with young men who were experienced in battle, disciplined, organized and were effective. c) The Nandi also possessed knowledge of weapon manufacture and repair through their local ironsmiths and using stolen railway material. d) The Nandi enjoyed regular supply of food and war equipment which sustained the fighters for a long period. This was mainly aided by the Nandi mixed economy enabling them to turn livestock for food when the British destroyed crops. e) The Nandi had good knowledge of the terrain in which they were fighting the intruders thus having an advantage over the British who were not familiar with the terrain. The difficulties faced by the British as posed by the terrain disadvantaged them durin g the resistance f) The Nandi knowledge of Guerilla tactics. This enabled them to organize many surprise attacks while vandalizing key British installations like the telegraph lines. g) The existence of strong leadership. The Nandi leadership was religiously inspired and therefore very strong. The Orkoiyot was their symbol of unity and strength and was believed to possess some supernatural powers that gave courage to the fighters. h) Their enemies, the British troops, were slowed down in their advance by problems like respiratory disease due to the wet and cold climate. The Nandi were accustomed to these conditions i) The Nandi received assistance from the Kipsigis fighters the Elgeyo, Lembus and Nyangori which enabled them to hold off the British for Six weeks in 1900. **Why the Nandi were defeated in the hands of the British** a) The British obtained support, against the Nandi, from the collaborating communities like the Somali and the Maasai. b) The British military strength remained superior to that of the Nandi especially in terms of the weapons. Their guns were superior to the Nandi spears. c) There was an outbreak of smallpox in the Nandi country 1890. This weakened them by killing many and rendering others unable to fight on. d) They Nandi failed to get support from the neighboring Kenyan communities like the Luo and the Abaluhyia who were not friendly to them. e) The treachery employed by Captain Meinertzhagen, the British commander who lured Nandi Orkoiyot Koitalel Arap Samoei to a meeting where he was killed. f) The death of Koitalel Arap Samoei demoralized the Nandi into even signing for peace. g) The British used Scorched Earth Policy, which seemed more punitive to the Nandi since their houses were burnt and livestock confiscated. **Results of the Nandi resistance.** a) The Nandi country was colonized by the British after 1906. The Nandi lost their independence. b) There was massive loss of life. Koitalel Arap Samoei, his entire council of elders and over 1000 warriors were killed. The British also experienced casualties on the part of their forces. c) There was destruction of property through burning and looting. E.g the British confiscated at least 5000 herds of cattle and burnt more than 5000 huts and grain stores. d) There was massive land alienation. The Nandi were pushed into reserves where they experienced impoverishment due to drought and cattle diseases. The Nandi lot their territory and traditional salt licks at Kapchekendi and Kamelilo that were now inhabited by the whites. e) The Nandi military organization disintegrated thus making them lose their dignity and authority in the region. f) The Nandi were separated from their close cousins and allies the Kipsigis through the creation of the Nandi Reserves where they were confined. Their economic lifestyle of grazing animals freely was also disrupted. g) Many Nandi warriors were recruited into the colonial police. **Agiriama resistance.** A Bantu speaking group inhabiting the coastal region, their reaction to the British invasion was motivated by the reaction of the Mazrui Arabs and the Swahili who rose up against the British in 1895.The Agiriama reaction began as an offer of support to the Mazrui Arabs, with whom they had long trading links, during their conflict with the British over succession to the TakaunguSheikhdom. The Agiriama was also hitting back against the Busaidi Arabs who were encroaching on their territory. The British had supported the Al Busaidi collaborators throughout succession conflict.The British reacted by bombarding Rashids Headquarters at Mweli forcing the Agiriama and the Mazrui to resort to guerilla warfare. While the Mazrui Arabs later surrendered, the Agiriama now resorted to full scale rsistance against the British encroachment in 1914. **Causes of the Agiriama resistance** a) They did not want to pay taxes, especially hut tax that was hurting to traditionally polygamous group, to the British. The British also were forcing them to pay it in terms of labour instead of allowing them to sell their grains and livestock to pay. b) They had lost their independence/the British replaced the Agiriama traditional rulers with their own appointees c) They were opposed to forced labour on British plantations for little or no pay especially on land that had been snatched from them. d) The British did not respect their culture. The British policemen at Kitengani insulted the Agiriama culture by raping their women. e) The Agiriama were reacting against forced conscription into the Kings African Rifles. They were forced to produce 1000 able-bodied men within a month, join the British army f) They lost their land to the British due to the massive land alienation for settler farming. They were forced to offer paid labour on their own former land to the chagrin of the elders. g) The British, who were seeking to take over the Agiriama role as middlemen, disrupted their trade in ivory and food stuffs h) They disliked the British-appointed headmen whose duties included collection of taxes and recruitment of labour. **Course of the resistance** The Agiriama resistance was inspired by a Giriama prophetess, Mekatilili WA Menza. She was joined by an Elder, Wanje wa Madorika in mobilizing people to a mass resistance against the British rule.The immediate course of their reaction was the forced military recruitment into the KAR. To provoke the British to war, they barred their young men from moving outside their villages to work.Mekatilili and Wanje called on the people to return to their ancestral shrine at Kaya Fungo and offer sacrifices and denounced all appointed puppet rulers in favour of the traditional council of elders. The two administered traditional oaths to unite and inspire the people to war. I.e. the Mukushekushe oath for women and the Fisi oat for men.When a state of emergency was declared by the British over the Agiriama, they resorted to Hitand-run warfare. They attacked the homes of loyalists, Europeans and collaborators forcing the missionaries to seeker refuge at Rabai. The British countered the hit-and-run warfare with burning villages and crops and driving away livestockThe resistance only subsided when Mekatilili and Wanje were arrested and deported to Kisii.The Arabs, under Fadhili bin Omari, mediated between the Agiriama and the British, marking the end of the war under the following terms; a) The Agiriama to offer a specific number of labourers for European settlers and public works. b) They would also offer a certain number of able-bodied men to serve in the Kings African Rifles. c) The British would occupy all the land to the north of River Sabaki. **Role of Mekatilili in the Agiriama resistance**. a) She encouraged the Agiriama to face the British by administering the Mukushekushe and Fisi oaths to unite the people to war. b) She presented the grievances of the Agiriama, some of which the British later addressed. c) She rallied the people together against a common enemy thus laying the basis for nationalistic struggles for independence. **Results of the Agiriama resistance to the British** a) Many people lost their lives some as fighters while others were caught in the crossfire. b) The Agiriama lost their independence to the British c) There was Rampant destruction of property i.e. food stores at home, food crops in the fields and cattle. Some property was lost through confiscation. d) The communitys economic activities were disrupted, especially the lucrative trade at Takaungu, where they had been acting as middlemen. e) The Agiriama were prohibited from brewing traditional liquor. f) The British withdrew their order demanding Agiriama to move out of their homes. g) For the first time women took up the leadership of the rebellion e.g. Mekatilili **Bukusu resistance** **Reasons why the Bukusu resisted the British rule** a) They wanted to safeguard their independence and culture i.e. circumcision. b) They were being compelled to recognize Nabongo Mumia as the overall leader of Abaluhyia. c) The Bukusu did not like the idea of paying taxes to the British through force. d) They resented the British demand in 1894, that the Bukusu warriors surrender guns they possessed. e) The British invasion had happened when the Bukusu were enjoying immense military power. **Course of the resistance** The Bukusu resistance began with the ambush of a trade caravan heading to Ravine through bukusuland. The Bukusu stole all the rifles. When they were commanded to surrender all the guns in 1894 and declined, the British sent a punitive expedition which however was defeated. The British administrator at Elureko, Charles Hobley sought for reinforcement from Major William Grant of the Ugandan protectorate. In 1895, at the battles of Lumboka and Chetambe, the Bukusu were summarily defeated. **Methods used by the Bukusu to resist the British.** a) Use of Warfare. They directly fought the British troops led by Major William Grant, at Lumboka and Chetambe hills. b) Ambushes. The Bukusu ambushed a caravan of traders, sent by the commanding officer at Kavirondo to the Ravine Station. c) Revolting against rule by Wanga agents. The Bukusu Murdered a Wanga agent, Hamisi, who had been sent, to administer the area. ` **Effects of the Bukusu resistance** a) The Bukusu lost most of their land through massive land alienation b) They lost their independence as bukusuland was declared part of the British East Africa **Protectorate** c) There was massive loss of life within the Bukusu and the British forces. d) There was loss f property and disruption of Bukusu economy. The Bukusu lost their cattle and sheep. e) Bukusu women and children were taken prisoners by the British. **The Somali resistance.** The Somali resistance was a reaction to the British declaration that Jubaland was a British protectorate. They were led by their leader Ahmad bin Murgan. **causes of Somali resistance.** a) The Somali were opposed to the division of Somaliland into the British and Italian spheres of influence, which separated the clans. b) They were opposed to punitive expedition sent against them by the British. c) The Somali people being Muslims were opposed to being controlled by the British who were Christians. d) The British attempted to stop the Somali raiding activities against their neighbors. e) The Somali were against British control of their pastureland and watering points. f) The British wanted the Somali to drop their nomadic way of life. **Course of the resistance.** The British initially reacted minimally to the Somali aggression on their Kisimayu neighbourhood in 1898 due to the following reasons; a) They viewed such an undertaking as to expensive in terms of the arms and military personnel that would have been involved. b) The Somali were a nomadic group therefore it was very hard and time consuming to suppress them. c) There was no economic justification for waging such a war on a highly unproductive territory. However, when the Somali murdered the British sub-commissioner for Jubaland, Mr Jenner, in 1900, the British dispatched a punitive expedition of Indian regiments against them.The Somali rose up again in 1905 against the British after they had procured Firearms. The Somali skirmishes continued into 1914 with the change of boundaries and finally ended in 1925 when Jubaland was put under the Italian Somaliland. **Results of the Somali resistance** a) There was massive loss of life, as many Somalis were killed. Sub-commissioner Jenner was also killed. b) The British divide the Darod and Hawiye clans through the boundary changes of 1914. c) The Somali cattle were confiscated. d) Somali lost their independence through the declaration of the protectorate status. e) The process of colonization by Europeans was delayed considerably. f) There was favorable boundary change that saw Ogaden being placed under Italian Somaliland. **Collaboration** In Kenya, the Maasai, Wanga and a section of the Agikuyu, Akamba, and Luo collabo rated. **The Maasai collaboration** In the 19th century, the Maasai community changed from a once feared community to one marred by succession disputes and natural calamities. The Disputes between Lenana and Sendeyo over succession of Mbatian after he died weakened the Maasai community to the level of merely collaborating with the British intruders. Sendeyo moved with his followers to northern Tanzania leaving behind Lenanas group who chose the path of collaboration. **Reasons for the Maasai collaboration with the British** a) Losses of the Maasai military supremacy. At the time the British came to Kenya, the Nandi had overtaken the Maasai in terms of military superiority. They therefore sought for foreignsupport against their aggressors. b) Internal feuds. There were a series of succession disputes in the period between 1850 and 1890 caused by differences in economic activities. In one of the disputes, when Lenana seemed to be losing to Sendeyo, he appealed to the British for support. c) Natural calamities/disasters. The Maasai country witnessed severe hunger, livestock and human diseases in the 1850s. These weakened them more making them unable to resist. d) Threat and wars from the Agikuyu. When the Maasai went to reclaim their women and children at the end of the hunger period, they were met with outright threat of attacks from the Agikuyu. They therefore sought British support. e) Prophecy of Mbatian. He prophesized the coming of a white man who was more powerful and that the Maasai should not bother to resist him. f) Lenana personally chose the path of collaboration because he wanted to consolidate his position and that of his kingdom. He was looking for the much needed military support to overcome his sibling, Sendeyo of the Loita Maasai. **The process of Maasai collaboration.** The attempt by Lenana to secure assistance against Sendeyo was the beginning of his collaboration with the British.The Kedong massacre incident (Maasai warriors attacked a caravan of Swahili and Agikuyu traders travelling from Ravine) and the resultant death of 100 Maasai at the hands of three white men (Andrew Dick and two French companions) made the Maasai the immediately seek for collaboration with the British.They cooperated with the British in establishment of colonial administration. The provided mercenaries in the British punitive expedition against the Nandi, Kipsigis and Kikuyu. Maasai were rewarded with cattle acquired from uncooperative peoples e.g. The Nandi and Agikuyu They exchanged gifts and used British manufactured goods. Lenana was made a paramount chief. Between 1904 and 1923, a fair proportion of the Maasai agreed to be moved from one grazing land to another to pave way for British settlement.They signed the first Maasai agreement in 1904 by which they moved into two reserves, one to the south of Ngong and the railway and the other up on the Laikipia plateau. A corridor of five kilometres was set aside in Kinangop for the Eunoto ceremony that accompanied circumcision. The second Maasai agreement of 1911 implied the Maasai abandon the Laikipia plateau to rejoin others in the enlarged southern reserve. **Results of the Maasai collaboration** a) Lenana was made a paramount chief of the Maasai in 1901. b) The collaboration led to the separation of the Maasai related clans. The Purko Maasai were divided into the Loita and Ngong Maasai. c) There was massive land alienation with the Maasai being moved to the Ngong and Laikipia reserves and later the southern reserve. d) Maasai freedom in conducting rituals was curtailed with their confinement to a five square-mile reserve for initiation rites. e) The Maasai lost their independence. Just like any other part of kenya, Maasailand became part of the British protectorate. f) There was total disruption of their territorial integrity. Even their cattle economy was disrupted as the number of livestock was reduced. There was an attempt to cause them to abandon their nomadic habit. g) The Maasai gained material reward in form of cattle and grains looted from resisting communities like the Nandi and Luo of Ugenya. h) Their age old custom of livestock cross- breeding with their Samburu neighbours was disrupted with the curtailing of their migratory behaviour. Their stock was therefore weakened. i) Some Maasai were hired as mercenaries against the resisting communities such as the Nandi and Agikuyu. **Wanga Collaboration** Nabongo Mumia, the Wanga leader from 1880, was an ambitious and shrewd leader who had the desire to expand his Kingdom through collaboration with British intruders and soliciting their military assistance. **Reasons for Wanga Collaboration** a) Nabongo Mumia hoped that by collaborating, he would be made a paramount Chief of the entire western region. b) There was family rivalry over leadership. This compelled Mumia to seek help against his brother Sakwa. He wanted to safeguard his position at home. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Cheloti 2013 c) He wanted British protection against the Nandi, who were by then enjoying military superiority, the Bukusu and the Luo of Ugenya d) He wanted to revive a disintegrating kingdom. e) He wanted to take advantage of the British western civilization particularly education and religion. He also wanted material gains from the British. f) He aimed at achieving territorial expansion. Mumia aimed at ruling up to Kabras, Kimilili, Marama, Butsotso, Ugenya and Samia. g) He realized that his community was very small and it was futile to resist the militarily superior Europeans. h) Having realized that the British declaration of western Kenya as their sphere of influence was inevitable, he chose to become their ally at the earliest opportunity ever. **Process of Wanga Collaboration.** Mumias contact with the outside world began when he befriended the Swahili and Arabcaravan traders and later the IBEA Company merchants when they visited wangaland.They built a fort and a trading station at Elureko, his capital, which was to remain the headquarters of the British administration in western Kenya until 1920. **Ways in which Nabongo of Wanga collaborate with the British.** a) He offered his seat-elureko to become an operational base of the British expeditions. b) He offered his men to fight alongside the British in their expeditions against other communities. c) He provided Wanga agents to aid the British in administering the conquered areas. d) The Wanga provided food, water and shelter to the British invading forces. e) They gave the British free passage through their territory and offered them hiding places during the battles. f) Mumia signed treaties of friendship with the British. **Results of the Wanga collaboration with the British.** a) Wanga kingdom was strengthened using military support from the British. Wanga kingdom was expanded. Nabongo gained more territories e.g. Samia, Bunyala and Busoko b) Their king Mumia was declared a paramount Chief thus raising his prestige. He ruled as a British paramount chief ruling as far as Bunyala, Gem , Ugenya and Alego, upto 1926, when he officially retired c) Mumia warriors became agents of the British colonialism. The warriors were used to subdue the Luo, Bukusu and Nandi. d) The Wanga Princes became agents of British rule over western Kenya. For example, Mumias half-brother Murunga was appointed chief of the Isukha and Idakho. e) Mumias headquarters at Elureko became the seat of British administration in western Kenya upto 1920 when it was moved to Kakamega. f) Mumia and his people gained material benefits from the British through trade, western education and religion. g) Nabongo Mumia became an important ally of the British administration in western ken\\ya, providing them with vital information over the appointment of chiefs and Headmen in western Kenya. h) Due to the Wanga Collaboration, there was intensified enmity and hostility between the Wanga people and other Abaluhyia subsections who viewed the Wanga as traitors. i) However, The Wanga, just like any other collaborator or resister lost their independence when Kenya was declared a British Colony in 1920. **Mixed reactions** The communities that exhibited mixed reaction were the Akamba, Agikuyu and Luo. **The Akamba Reaction** The arrival of the British traders threatened to destabilize the prominence enjoyed by the Akamba as middlemen during the long distance trade. The British even tried to stop the Akamba from organizing raids on their Oromo, Agikuyu and Maasai neighbours. ***Why did the Akamba decide to resist British administration***? a) The British failed to respect Akamba traditions and customs. For example, the cutting down of the ithembo (shrine) tree for a flag post at Mutituni in 1891. b) When the Akamba attacked the Agikuyu, The British intervened against them. This was not taken kindly. c) The Akamba were protesting the misconduct of Company officials based at Machakos who stole from the local people and raped Akamba women. d) The establishment of colonial administration disrupted the long distance trade, which was the Akamba lifeline. e) The establishment of British rule meant loss of independence for the Akamba. f) The establishment of military posts in Ukambani without their consent. The British built a fort at Masaku in 1890. g) The British kept on disrupting their peace by sending military expeditions that resulted in death and massive destruction of property. h) The Akamba were also resisting forced labour. **Course of the Akamba resistance.** In 1890, Nzibu Mweu led he Akamba in boycotting to sell goods to the company agents. Prophetess Syonguu also ordered the Iveti Warriors to attack the Masaku fort in the same year as a reaction to the cutting down of the ithembo tree for a flagpole.The British agents were defeated during this surprise attack.When the British tried to stop the Akamba raids on their neighbours in 1894, a Warrior, Mwatu wa Ngoma ordered the Akamba warriors, who had been inspired by medicinemen, to attack the British. The British responded with devastating consequences on the side of the Akamba forcing them into collaboration with the British District Commissioner, John Ainsworth. Mwatu wa Ngoma became a collaborator.Later, another gallant fighter, Mwanamuka, led the Kangundo people to attack the colonial police at Mukuyuni and Mwala, killing six. With the assistance of Maasai mercenaries, the British sent a punitive expedition against the Akamba and even confiscated their livestock.When Mwanamuka tried to blockade the Lukenya area to cut off communication between Fort Smith and Masaku, he was met with devastating consequences that forced him to also petition for peace. **Why a section of the Akamba collaborated with the British**. a) They had lost heavily during the Akamba-British war of 1894 causing them to fear the British. b) The ruthlessness with which the British attacked the Akamba scared many warriors into collaborating. For example, the Machakos station superintendent, Leith dispatched troops to deal with Syonguus forces in 1891, causing merciless killings and looting of property. c) Some especially the trades collaborated expecting material gains. d) Collaborators wanted to gain prestige. e) They wanted to get guns to be used in robbing for wealth. f) The Akamba had been weakened by the 1899 famine and were therefore unable to effectively tackle the British. **Reasons for the Akamba defeat** a) Some of the Akamba were not patriotic to the resistance course. Some self-serving opportunists allied with the colonial agents with the aim of enriching themselves thereby resulting in the Akamba defeat. b) Internally, the Akamba lacked territorial cohesion. It was therefore very difficult to coordinate a strong resistance to British rule among a highly segmented society lacking in a centralized system of government. c) Sections of The Akamba community experienced severe famine in 1899. They were weakened to the level of being unable to stage a gainful resistance to the British. d) The role of missionaries who pacified some sections to the level of collaborating with the intruders. The missionaries actively undermined their religious practices and traditional beliefs. e) When the Akamba caravan trade and raiding activities were disrupted, they had lost a significant source of livelihood and thus became weakened more. **Consequences of the Akamba reaction** a) The Akamba lost their independence as their territory was declared a British protectorate. b) There was massive alienation of Kamba land to pave way for white settlement. c) Many people, especially the Akamba warriors lost their lives during the confrontations with the British soldiers. d) The British interfered with the Akamba culture by cutting down the Ithembo tree and raping their women. e) The Akamba were subjected to heavy taxation in order to raise revenue for the colonial administration. f) Many of the Akamba men were forcefully conscripted into the Kings African Rifles to fight in World War I. **The Agikuyu reaction** The Agikuyu was also a highly segmented nature lacking in territorial unity. This explains why they had mixed reaction against the British. Explain the causes of Agikuyu resistance. a) The British failed to respect Agikuyu traditions and customs. The missionaries campaignedagainst female circumcision and Kikuyu forms of worship. b) Misconduct of company officials. They stole from the local people, killing some of them, and raped Agikuyu women. c) The Agikuyu were revolting against the forced supply of grains and water, by their women, to the British soldiers. d) There was massive land alienation, which had left many landless or pushed to unproductive land. e) Harassment of the Agikuyu, by British punitive expeditions. To enforce their policies, the British usually applied excessive force. f) The British had begun meddling in the Agikuyu internal affairs making them suspicious of their intentions. g) Fear of Loss of independence by some leaders like Waiyaki wa Hinga. h) The Agikuyu were reacting against the punishment meted on them by the British for raiding Fort Smith in 1892. **Reasons why some Agikuyu collaborated**. a) Agikuyu leaders like Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and Karuri wa Gakure wanted to derive personal wealth and prestige through collaboration. b) Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and Karuri wa Gakure hoped that by collaborating, they would be made paramount Chiefs among the Agikuyu. c) The collaborators wanted British protection against their enemies amongst the Agikuyu and other neighbouring communities. d) They wanted to take advantage of the British western civilization particularly education and religion. e) They also wanted material gains from the British through trading with them. f) The Agikuyu of Nyeri realized that it was futile to resist the militarily superior Europeans.They therefore chose to collaborate. **Organization of the Agikuyu reaction** When captain Lugard established a fort at Dagoretti in 1890, he began relating with Waiyaki WA Hinga who was in charge of the area. Wayakis people supplied Lugards men with food.However, when Wilson took over from Lugard who had left for Uganda, his soldiers began looting food and livestock from the Agikuyu. The Agikuyu reacted by setting the Dagoretti fort on fire. Waiyaki was arrested by the forces sent by Sub- commissioner Ainsworth, and died enroute to Mombasa. It is alleged that he was buried alive at Kibwezi after provoking his captors.Kinyanjui WA Gathirimu, a collaborator, succeeded Waiyaki at Dagoretti. In 1899, Fort Dagoretti was closed down due to a series of raids. Francis Hall opened another Fort at Muranga (renamed Fort Hall after his death in 1901) after the locals were subdued and forced to accept the British Colonial rule. British trader John Boyes forged an alliance with Karuri WA Gakure, the Agikuyu leader at Fort Hall, which enabled him to subdue the resisting Agikuyu groups. He also made contacts with Wangombe of Gaki (Nyeri) who together with Gakure supplied the British with mercenaries in exchange for confiscated loots from resisting groups.Meinertzhagen, who succeeded Francis Hall in 1902, subdued the Muruku and Tetu section (led by Chief Gakere) of the Agikuyu. Chief Gakere was murdered and his associates deported to the coast after they wiped out the entire Asian caravan on the slopes of the Aberdares.The Agikuyu of Iriani (Nyeri) were defeated in 1904 and their Aembu and Ameru allies sought for peace in 1906, having seen the effects of resisting.By 1910, British rule had been established in the entire Mount Kenya region. With the Agikuyu settling peacefully in the reserves upto 1920s when they began to agitate again. **Results of the Agikuyu mixed reaction.** a) The reactions fuelled mistrust, hatred and animosity in most of Kikuyuland. Such feelings of mistrust continue among the Agikuyu of Muranga, Kiambu and Nyeri up-to- date. b) There was massive alienation of Agikuyu land by the British with the help of the collaborators like Wangombe WA Ihura and Gathirimu who gave land to the British for construction. c) Some Agikuyu leaders amassed a lot of wealth and rose to prominence. For example, Karuri wa Gakure and Wangombe of Nyeri, d) The collaborators like Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and his people received western education and were converted to Christianity. e) There was massive loss of lives for the resisters. For example Waiyaki wa Hinga and many Agikuyu fighters were killed. f) The Agikuyu, both collaborators and Resisters lost their independence when their territory was declared a British protectorate. g) The Agikuyu wars of resistance forced the British to shift their administrative base from Fort Dagoretti to Fort Hall. h) There was massive destruction of property. The Agikuyu razed down Fort Dagoretti. The Agikuyu villages were burnt by the British. **The Luo reaction.** The resisters were the Luo of Sakwa, seme, Uyoma, Ugenya and Kisumu. The collaborators were the Luo of Gem and Asembo, led by Chief (Ruoth) Odera Akango. **Reasons for the resistance against the British by the Luo of Ugenya.** a) To protect their land and national heritage. b) To protect their freedom and independence c) Protect their livestock, grains and fish from being taken by the British soldiers who were undisciplined d) The Luo had become a formidable nation in the area and did not entertain any intruder. e) They were also provoked by the punitive expedition sent against them by Mumia and the British. **Why the Gem and Asembo Luos collaborated.** a) Their chief, Odera Akango had been influenced by the Wanga Neighbours who had gained materially from their collaboration. b) Odera also needed British assistance to subdue the Luo of Seme, Uyoma, Sakwa and Ugenya, and the Nandi, who were a threat to his people. c) He realized the futility of resisting the British through the experience of his neighbours. **Course of the Luo resistance.** The Luo of Ugenya set off the resistance by attacking the Wanga in an attempt to expand. They vandalized British key installations like the telegraph wires and administrative stations.In 1896, the British sent an expedition against them and 200 people were killed. When the British attacked the Seme Luo for cattle and Grains, they were provoked into revolting. They attacked the Asembo Luo who had collaborated with the British. The British invaded them in 1898 with devastating effects in terms of property and life loss. The Luo of Kisumu rose up in 1898 attacking a British Canoe party on Winam Gulf for taking their fish without paying. They were however overcome.The Gem and Asembo Luos led by Ruoth Odera Akango supported the British throughout all these confrontations. **Results of the Luo reaction** a) Both collaborators and resisters lost their independence to the British. b) The Luo lost their property through burning and looting. c) There was massive loss of lives, especially among the Ugenya Luo. d) It Bred hatred between the collaborators and resisters e) The collaborating communities were able to gain western education and religion as the British established schools and missions in their areas. f) The African leadership was replaced with the British administration, thereby undermining traditional political systems. g) The Luo were alienated from their land to pave way for the British occupation and settlement. **Colonial system of administration in Kenya** In their administration of Kenya, the British employed both central government and local government as the basic administrative framework. **Central Government** The protectorate was divided into provinces headed by Provincial commissioners, who acted as representatives of the Governor. The governor was answerable to the colonial s ecretary in Britain. **Hierarchy of colonial administration in Kenya** 1. Colonial secretary. Based in London, he was the political head of the British colonial administration and overall coordinator of the colonial policies as passed by the British parliament. 2. Governor. Reporting to the colonial secretary, he was the representative of the British government in the Kenyan colony. He headed the executive council which effected colonial policies and programmee he gave assent to laws from the LEGCO before they were implemented. 3. Provincial Commissioners. They represented the governor at provincial level and implemented the policies and laws that were enacted by the legislative council that was established in 1907. They supervised the work of DCs, Dos and the entire provincial administration on behalf of the governor. 4. District commissioners. They implemented policies and maintained law and order and security in their districts. They headed the District Advisory Committees. They coordinated the work of Dos and Chiefs. 5. District Officers. They implemented orders from the DCs and coordinated the work of the chiefs. They maintained law and order in their divisions. 6. Chiefs. They acted as a link between the people and the Governor at local levels. They maintained law and order at the locations and coordinated the work of headmen. 7. Headmen. They were a link between the government and the people at the grassroots level. They mobilized people for development within their villages. ***NB.**The principal function of Chiefs and Headmen under the Headmans Ordinance and* *Chiefs Authority Act was tax Collection and labour recruitment for public works and* *European settlers. Their duties were confined in the African reserves.* The advisory and Executive Councils guide the governor and effected the colonial policies. **Local Government**. The British introduced the Local Government in colonial Kenya because; a) They wanted to involve the local communities in administration of the region. This would reduce the costs of administration. b) They wanted to mobilize local people in resources exploitation in order to stir up development c) Local Government was a means of providing a legal forum for the local people to make decisions about their day to day affairs d) The Local Government would provide an important link between the Central government and the locals. e) The Local Government would provide a means through which the government would understand Africans better. f) It also originated from the desire by European settlers to safeguard a number of privileges for themselves by getting directly involved in local administrative units **Local Native Councils** They were established in 1922 after the passing of the Native Authority Ordinance. In 1924, the District Advisory Councils (DACs) were renamed Local Native Councils (LNCs) **Objectives of the LNCs** a) To encourage and develop a sense of responsibility and duty among the Africans. b) To provide a mechanism through which educated Africans could articulate their grievances at District level. c) To ensure proper restriction of the Africans in their reserves. d) To provide a means through which the government would understand the Africans better so that to contain them. **Achievements of the Local Native councils** a) The councils succeeded in restriction African political Agitations and other activities to their reserves. b) The LNCs provided basic social needs like water, cattle Dips, Public Health, Education and Markets. c) They succeeded in maintaining basic infrastructure in their areas of jurisdiction. d) They succeeded in collecting taxes to finance their operations. NB; in 1948, the LNCs were renamed African Native Councils. Pascal Nabwane became the first African chairmen of the ADCs in 1958. The ADCs operated as local authorities for Africans until 1963. **Impact of Local government** a) It exploited local resources and initiated development. b) It created a link between the central government and the local people. c) It helped maintain law and order using the small police force set up in 1896. d) It promoted infrastructural development and general welfare of Africans. It used the levied taxes to improve social services such as schools and hospitals. e) It helped in the arbitration of African disputes through the District African Courts. E.g, Land disputes were settled by the LNCs. **Factors that undermined the local Government** a) Shortage of trained personnel to work in the LNCs and ADCs. b) Poor transport and communication leading to poor coordination of their activities. c) Lack of adequate revenue to finance their operations as the colony lacked strategic mineral resources. d) There was a lot of rivalry between the settlers and the locals, later becoming the freedom struggles. This hampered the operations of the councils. e) Racial discrimination was so pronounced that basic services were absent in African areas. Many Africans survived through self-help schemes. **COLONIAL ADMINISTRATION** The methods mainly used by the British to administer their colonies were ***1. Direct rule.*** ***2. Indirect rile***. **Difference between direct rule and indirect rule.** Indirect rule was a system under which the British recognized the existing African political system and used it to rule over the colonies.Direct rule was a system where the Europeans/the British entrenched themselves in the direct administration of their colonies. Indigenous political and administrative institutions and leaders are replaced with European systems. **Indirect rule** This was a policy advanced by Fredrick Lugard, the British High Commissioner in the protectorate of Northern Nigeria from 1900 to 1906.To Lugard, as summed up in his book, The Dual Mandate in the Tropical Africa (1922),the resident acts as a sympathetic adviser to the native chief, on matters of general policy. But the native ruler issues his instructions to the subordinate chiefs and district heads, not as orders of the resident but as his own.Such a system was applied in Kenya and in West Africa. **Why Britain used indirect rule in Kenya and Nigeria** a) Britain lacked enough manpower to handle all the administrative responsibilities in the colonies. For example, in the Nigerian protectorate, there were only 42 British officials by 1900. b) Lack of adequate funds for colonial administration from the parent government made her use the existing traditional political system as a means of cutting down the administrative costs. c) The use of indirect rule was a means of diffusing the expected stiff resistance from the Africans. The traditional rulers were to be made to feel that they had lost no power. d) The policy of administration had succeeded in India and Uganda, thus motivating them to apply it in Kenya and Nigeria. **British rule in Kenya** In Kenya, the British lacked both funds and experienced personnel to facilitate their administration. Kenya also did not have a reference model of an administrative system like that in Buganda Kingdom. It was only among the Wanga section of the Abaluhyia and the Maasai where traditional chiefs that were recognized by the British existed. Where the institution of chieftainship did not exist as the case of the Agikuyu, the British appointed chiefs (men with ability to communicate in Kiswahili and organize porters) like Kinyanjui WA Gathirimu in Kiambu, Karuri wa Gakure in Muranga and Wangombe wa Ihura in Nyeri. The passing of the Village Headman Act in 1902 gave the chiefs the responsibilities of maintaining public order, hearing of petty cases and clearing of roads and footpaths.The 1912 0rdinance increased the powers of the chiefs and their assistants (headmen); they were now allowed to employ other persons to assist them, such as messengers and retainers. They were to assist the District officers in Tax collection and control brewing of illegal liquor and cultivation of poisonous plants like Cannabis sativa. They were to control carrying of weapons and mobilize African labour for public works. ***The selected colonial chiefs however faced two problems;*** a) Most of them lacked legitimacy and were therefore rejected not only by the African elders who regarded them as nonentities, but also by the young generation who saw them as tools of colonial oppression and exploitation. b) Many of the colonial chiefs were young and inexperienced. c) Many of the chiefs also became unpopular since they used their positions to amass riches in terms of large tracts of land, livestock and wives. E.g Chief Musau wa Mwanza and Nthiwa wa Tama acquired 8000 herds of cattle and 15 wives respectively in kambaland.The structure of administration was as discussed earlier with governor being answerable to the colonial secretary in London. Below him were provincial commissioners, district commissioners, district Officers and Chiefs.All the administrative positions above that of the chief were occupied by European personnel. **The British in Nigeria.** Nigeria comprised the Lagos colony and protectorate, the Southern Nigeria Protectorate and the Northern Nigeria Protectorate. These regions were later amalgamated into the Nigerian protectorate in 1914.In Northern Nigeria, Fredrick Lugard employed indirect rule. **Reasons for the use of indirect rule by the British in northern Nigeria.** a) The system was cost-effective. There was need to reduce the administrative cost by using the local chiefs in administration while employing very few British officials. b) Northern Nigeria had communities with a well-organized centralized system of government complete with Islamic sharia whose use provided a base to govern the protectorate. i.e. The Sokoto Caliphate c) The vastness of the region coupled with the inadequate British administrative work force and Poor transport and communication network made it difficult for the British officials to effectively administer some parts of the region. d) The system would help dilute African resistances since governance was by local rulers. TheBritish were keen on guarding against the local resistance to their administration. e) The method ensured smooth transition from African to British dominion. It was a way of deliberately preparing Africans for self-government. f) Indirect rule had been tried successfully in Uganda and India. **Indirect administration as applied in northern Nigeria** In Northern Nigeria, the existing emirates with centralized system of administration formed thebasis of local governance. The Emirs were retained and were to rule under supervision of the British resident officials.The British administration was based on the local customs and laws. Chiefs chosen by the British were to be acceptable by the local people. Local chiefs collected taxes and a portion of it was given to the Central Government.Local Native Courts operated as per the laws of the land. The Emirs were allowed to try cases in their own Muslim courts.The Emirs were mandated to maintain law and order. They possessed firearms.In 1914, Northern and Southern Nigeria were Brought under one syatem of administration. However Lugard found it hard to apply indirect rule in Southern Nigeria. **Why indirect rule was not successful applied in southern Nigeria** a) Southern Nigeria lacked a centralized indigenous system of administration, which would have been vital in the application of indirect rule. b) The south had many ethnic groups, many languages and many disparities in customs, whichdenied it the homogeneity necessary for the application of indirect rule. c) The southern people were infuriated by the British introduction of new concepts like forced labour and direct taxes. d) The British did not give themselves time to understand the operation of the social, political and economic systems of the people of southern Nigeria. e) The educated elites in the south felt left out of the administration of their own country in favour of the illiterate appointees of the British. f) There existed communication barrier between the British supervisors, the warrant chiefs and the people, which sometimes led to misinterpretation and misunderstanding. g) The warrant chiefs sometimes misused their powers in tax collection and molesting women sexually. h) The brutish had used excessive force in dealing with any form of resistance and this made them unpopular **Problems associated with indirect rule as a system of government.** a) Indirect rule could only e applied where centralized government was present. Its application in stateless societies often faced difficulties. b) Where chiefs were imposed, especially in the stateless societies, their authority lacked legitimacy and only resulted in suspicion and lack of confidence. This would lead to constant riots when they tried to exert their authority. c) Local people even in the highly centralized states looked at indirect rule as curtailing the authority of their local rulers and hence resented it. E.g the Yoruba state in Nigeria. d) Some inexperienced British officials tended to interfere too much with the vital African customs and practices e.g. among the Asante thus bringing further problems. e) Different administrations had different views on the degree of indirect rule to be applied hence confusion was created. It was difficult to draw a boundary between the advisory and supervisory roles of colonial powers. f) Language was a problem and there was need for interpreters. Communication was poor and made adaptation difficult. g) Education of chiefs was necessary but even this took a long time and needed patience and skillful knowledge which the British did not have. **Effects of indirect rule.** a) The system led to transformation of the role of traditional African chiefs. they now began to recruit fellow Africans to provide labour to the colonial government and even fight in world war I. the chiefs thus became unpopular. b) The indigenous system of administration was modernized by the British especially in northern Nigeria. c) Many African chiefs used their positions to accumulate a lot of wealth at the expense of their people. Chiefs like Wangombe and Gakure in central Kenya acquired large tracts of land. d) Indirect rule created suspicion and mistrust between the educated elites and the traditional chiefs who were given power ib southern Nigeria. The elite reacted by forming political movements thus leading to growth of nationalism in Nigeria. e) Indirect rule helped preserve African cultures, unlike assimilation which sought to replace them. **DIRECT RULE** This system was mainly used in regions with large white settler population such as Algeria, south Nigeria and Zimbabwe. **Direct rule in Zimbabwe** Zimbabwe was colonized by the British South African Company under John Cecil Rhodes. Rhodes used his resources to sponsor a group of South African Europeans who set out to establish in Southern Rhodesia, a satellite of South African System. They began off by engaging the Ndebele in a series of wars from 1893 before finally occupying the fertile land in Mashonaland and Matabeleland. **Characteristics of direct rule in Zimbabwe** a) Zimbabwe had a large number of European settlers with their population rising to 50,000 by 1931. The whites therefore maintained an advantaged position throughout their administration of Zimbabwe. b) Many of the British settlers developed the attitude and consequently the belief that the territory was pre-ordained to be a white settler colony. c) The territory was administered by a commercial company (B.S.A.C) for a long period (1890-1923) d) An administrator below who was a long chain of European civil servants performing simple administrative duties headed BSAC. e) Direct method of administration was applied to the Africans who had initially resisted the intrusion. New chiefs were appointed to dethrone the traditional leaders. f) The Legislative Council that was begun in 1898 gave the European settlers political Rights to the extent that by 1923, they had attained some self-governance. g) The system was characterized by massive alienation of African Land compelling Africans to provide labour to the new European settlers. h) There was racial segregation which was effected through the Legislative Council. African communities suffered greatly in the hands of the settler regime. **Reasons for use of direct rule by the British in Zimbabwe** a) The British desired to fully control the economy of Zimbabwe and maximize on profit generation through direct involvement in administration. b) The Shona and Ndebele resistance against British intrusion made the them not to trust the Matabele chiefs nor use them as British agents c) There was lack of reliable political system to be used in indirect administration of the region. The local political institutions based on the Induna system had been destroyed when the British conquered and occupied Zimbabwe. d) Existence of enough B.S.A Co personnel on the spot who were familiar with the area as well as the British system of government. e) Favourable climatic conditions and the expected rich mineral deposits attracted many settlers who later provided the necessary personnel. f) There was a strong desire by the Europeans to be able to direct their own affairs and destiny without interference from within or without/The spirit nationalism **The BSAC administrative structure in Southern Rhodesia (1905-1923)** The government was headed by a resident Commissioner who was appointed by the Company stationed at Salisbury. Below him were various commissioners in charge of the Districts (all Europeans). Below them were African Chiefs whose duty included collecting tax, recruiting labour and maintaining law and order.In 1898, a LEGCO was established heavily dominated by the European settlers. An Executive Council, consisting of the Resident Commissioner and 4 nominees of BSA.Co was also established. In 1902, a Native Affairs Department, headed by a European Native Commissioner was created thus entrenching the dominance of Europeans in Zimbabwe. The duty of the commissioner was to allocate land to Africans, collect taxes and recruit labour.For lack of enough valuable minerals in Zimbabwe as expected, the Europeans compensated by acquiring large tracts of land from African communities with some having grants of upto 3000 acre pieces of land.( Europeans occupied 21 million acres while Africans despite their majority were confined to 24 million acre reserves.) The Company relinquished control in 1923 to for Zimbabwe to become a crown colony. **Crown colony Rule (1923-1953)** Why the settlers favoured crown colony over merger with South Africa. a) The merger would have led to domination by Afrikaners in their political matters. b) Their economic interests would have been neglected in favour of those of Afrikaners. As a crown colony, a Governor was appointed in 1923 to represent the Queen of England. British government was empowered by the constitution to veto any legislation that would discriminate against Africans. This however never happened practically. For example, the government formulated the Two-Pyramids Policy or parallel development policy characterized by discrimination against Africans. At the base of the pyramid was the majority Africans relegated to offering cheap labour for the white settlers. At the apex were the minority whites who took the highest positions in the economic and political system.To legitimize the two pyramids policy were two Acts that were passed in 1930 and 1934. **a) Land Apportionment Act of 1930** The Act introduced rigid territorial segregation with land being divided into whites and Africans portions. No African was allowed to acquire land outside their segregated portion.The minority whites acquired over half of the best arable land. Africans were given the semi arid areas infested by mosquitoes. Land was categorized into four; 1) Native Reserve Area- for Africans population. The Land was characterized with congestion since it was inadequate. 2) Native Purchase Area- for Africans to buy. Such areas had harsh climatic conditions. 3) European Area- For Whites only. 4) Unassigned Area- For government expansion of buildings and other uses. **Effects of the Land Apportionment Act on Africans** a) Many Africans became migrant labourers, moving to mines, towns and European farms to provide cheap labour since their land was unproductive. b) Large tracts of African land were alienated and they were confined to only 29 million acres while only 50,000 whites occupied 49 million acres of land. c) This exposed Africans to problems like overgrazing that further deteriorated their land. d) There was widespread poverty among Africans. For those on the reserves, they faced starvation, those in towns faced slum life. e) Africans suffered racial segregation in provision of social services in urban areas. f) There was disruption of social roles as African men moved to towns and settler farms. Women took over mens jobs in the reserves. g) Land apportionment became the seedbed for the rise of African nationalism in Zimbabwe. h) Africans were exposed to over taxation to compel them to provide labour to the Europeans. **b) The Industrial Conciliation Act of 1934.** The prime objective of the Act was to protect white workers from African competition. The government through the act prohibited Africans from setting up a trade union. Africans from beyond southern Rhodesia were imported to provide labour to the whites at low wages.The act resulted in relegation of Africans to the lowest level while skilled jobs were set aside for the Europeans. The two acts resulted in the humiliating conditions for the Africans which resulted in the rise of African Nationalism that continued more after the Second World War.As an answer to African agitation, the government invited more white settlers giving them more large tracts of land. The settlers also began to agitate for the formation of a federation of the three central African territories (southern Rhodesia, Northern Rhodesia and Nyasaland).In 1953, the British government gave approval for the formation of the federation of central African countries. **The Central African Federation.** The federation was organized as follows; 1) Each territory had its own government responsible for local administration. 2) Each territorial government was responsible for all aspects of native affairs within its boundaries. 3) The British government was directly involved in the administration of the two northern protectorates. 4) An African Board was established to ensure that no racist legislation against the Africans was passed in the federation parliament. 5) The Federal Parliament was given powers to deal with all matters involving more than one territory and foreign affairs.The first Prime Minister of the Federation, Garfield Todd, being sympathetic to African protests over formation of the federation, legalized the formation of trade Unions and funded African education and Agriculture. Unfortunately when Todd was replaced in 1958, all his programmees were abandoned. In 1963, the federation was dissolved and shortly afterwards Malawi and Zambia became independent as southern Rhodesia remained a self -governing colony. **The reign of Ian Smith** Ian Smiths Rhodesian Front Party, controlled by the white extremists with no regards for Africans, won the 1962 elections.On 15th October 1965, Smith led the settlers to announce a Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI), from Britain implying that political leadership was now fully in the hands of the white rebel settlers. This declaration provoked instant protest not only within Africa but also from the international community. UN declared sanctions against South Rhodesia though countries like South Africa and Portugal unfortunately continued to trade with her making the sanctions ineffective.In 1970, UDI declared itself a republic under a new constitution that entrenched whites position in Zimbabwe by spelling the following; a) Voting qualifications for Africans were revised and were now based on income. This automatically disenfranchised the majority of Africans. b) The land tenure system was revised to enable the Europeans to purchase land from the government.Meanwhile the war of independence had began in 1966, provoked by the 1965 UDI declaration, with a patriotic front formed by Zimbabwe African National Union(ZANU) of Mugabe Robert and Zimbabwe African Peoples Union(ZAPU) of Joshua Nkomo waging a guerilla warfare.Zimbabwe became independent in 1980, with Robert Mugabe as the fits Prime Minister. **Effects of British rule in Zimbabwe.** a) It led to African land alienation by white settlers/ Africans were displaced from their ancestral lands. b) The establishment of white settlement subjected Africans to abject poverty and suffering.Africans were subjected to intense economic exploitation through taxation and forced labour. c) African traditional economy was undermined as many of the Africans were forced to work for the Europeans. d) African interests were ignored in the day-to-day running of the colony. e) African traditional rulers lost their autonomy and became mere puppets of British administration. f) African cultures were undermined, for example through the separation of families as people sought alternative livelihood. g) The white settlers were to enhance the production of cash crops as transport, trade and industry were developed. h) Africans were denied freedom of movement and confined I reserves. i) Positively, it led to development of transport network the region. j) It led to introduction of new crops in the region k) It led to rise of nationalism as many Africans could no longer bear the burden of suffering in the hands of the whites. **ASSIMILATION** **Definition.** This was a system of administration in which French colonies were given a culture and civilization similar to that of France. This system was influenced by the French revolution of 1789, which emphasized the equality of all men.In Africa, it was perfected by Lewis Faidherbe in Senegal when he was governor from 1854 to 1865.To many historians Assimilation was a deliberate French policy to help them destroy African Chieftaincies and Kingdoms that were thriving at the time of their arrival. Under the system, Africans had to; ~ Learn the French language. ~ Practice the French legal system. ~ Apply the French civil and political system. ~ Convert to Christianity and learn French mannerism including eating and dressing habits.Later on assimilation evolved into association which had been first applied in Africa in central Africa by Savorgnan de Brazza.Association involved letting the subjects develop independently due to the belief that nonwesterners were racially inferior and would therefore never be accepted as equal to Europeans even when assimilated. **French administration in West Africa** The French system of administration was highly centralized.The eight French colonies were grouped into the confederation of French West Africa. They were governed from one capital, Dakar, Senegal.The federation was headed by a Governor-General answerable to the French Minister for colonies in Paris. Each colony was headed by a lieutenant- Governor answerable to the Governor-General in Dakar.Each colony was divided into cercles (provinces), each headed by a commandant de cercle. Each cercle was further divided into small districts each headed by a chef de sub-division below whom were African chiefs (chefs de cantons in charge of locations). At the base were chefs de village in charge of the sub-locations.All the French overseas colonies were seen as overseas provinces and each elected a deputy to the French Chamber of Deputies in Paris (lower House). However the French administrators appointed lacked high standards of education and some were military officers simply rewarded with senior administrative positions. This led to inefficiency. **French administration in Senegal** In Senegal, the policy of assimilation was only applied in the four communes of St.Louis, Goree, Rufisque and Dakar. In the rest of the country, African chiefs who ruled were put I three grades namely; a) Chefs de province: - equivalent of the paramount chiefs, they were usually successors of the pre-colonial chiefs. b) Chefs de Canton: - these were ordinary people appointed by the French officials due to their ability, to be charge of locations. They kept register of taxpayers the location, helped the government in conscription of Africans into the army and assisted in mobilizing forced labour for road construction and other public works. c) Chefs de village:- these were usually traditional heads of the community(village) who were given the responsibility of collecting taxes, maintenance of law and order, organizing relief during floods and locust invasion and maintaining roads I their areas. The privileges which were enjoyed by assimilated Africans in the four communes of Senegal included; ***Economic privileges*** ~ They were exempted from forced labour. ~ They were allowed to work in France. ~ They were exempted from paying taxes. ~ They were allowed trading rights like the French people. ***Political privileges*** ~ They were allowed to send representatives to the French Chamber of Deputies. ~ They were enfranchised like the French people in France (right to vote) ~ They enjoyed the rights of the French Judicial System like the French. ~ They were allowed to operate Local Authority structures which were similar to those in France. ~ They were allowed to retain Muslim law. ~ They were exempted from arbitrary arrest/through the Indigenization policy. **Characteristics of assimilation.** a) Administrative assimilation. There was an administrative relationship between the French colonies and their mother country. Colonies were regarded as overseas provinces. b) Political assimilation. The colonies were represented in the French chamber of deputies thus maintaining a close political identity. c) Economic assimilation. The French currency was used in the colonies to enhance the economic relationship. d) Personal assimilation. Africans in the Quatre communes were given French citizenship and other privileges enjoyed by French citizens. **Reasons why assimilation was successful in the four communes** a) There was a high percentage of Mullato population within the communes, who readily accepted the French culture making it easy for the French to apply assimilation. b) Africans were familiar with Europeans and their culture due to long interaction with them through trade. c) Many people had converted to Christianity and this made it possible for the French to apply their policy. **Factors that undermined the application of the French policy of assimilation in West** **Africa** a) There was opposition by local people who did not want the French to interfere with their culture. b) The Traditional African rulers resisted the policy since they did not want to lose their authority and influence over the assimilated people. c) The French traders in West Africa also opposed the system they viewed assimilated Africans as a potential threat to their commercial monopoly in the region. d) The policy of assimilation ran the risk of undermining the very foundation of French colonialism, as it was not possible to exploit Africans who had attained the assimile status. e) Missionary school system of education undermined the French policy of assimilation since there was segregation in provision of mission education. f) Nationalism conflicted with the policy of assimilation. g) Assimilation was becoming too expensive to the French government especially because West African colonies were not self-supporting yet. h) The vastness of the French colonies made it difficult to supervise the implementation of the policy. i) Muslims resisted fiercely the French attempt to convert them to Christianity. j) Racial discrimination against the indigenous people also contributed to the failure of the system. This is because many Frenchmen never accepted assimilated Africans as their equals. k) The French citizens in the motherland opposed the policy as they feared being outnumbered in the chamber of deputies. **Ways in which Nationalism undermined the policy of Assimilation in French West** **Africa.** a) It emphasized loyalty or devotion to ones country and national independence or separatism, which were against the policy of assimilation. b) Nationalists agitated for boycott of anything of French origin. c) The nationalists created awareness on the value of African culture and systems; this encouraged Africans to condemn assimilation. d) The nationalists created awareness on the importance of African unity which exposed the hypocrisy of assimilation **Consequences of assimilation in Senegal.** a) The policy of assimilation undermined African cultures, as many Africans embraced the French culture. For instance, the French language became the official language in the colony. b) The authority of traditional African leaders was eroded and even many were replaced by the assimilated Africans. c) The colony was incorporated into the French republic and regarded as an overseas province of France. d) Africans from Senegal were allowed to participate in the political matters of France. Some Senegalese like Blaise Diagne were elected as deputies in the French parliament. e) The spread of Islam was greatly frustrated, especially in the four communes where Africanswere converted to Christianity. f) A great rift emerged between the assimilated Africans , who were regarded as French citizens and the rest of African communities , who were subjected to taxation and forced labour **The policy of association.** Under this system, the French colonial government was to respect the cultures of her colonial peoples and allow them to develop independently rather than force them to adopt French civilization and culture.Unlike the assimilated Africans, subjects retained their cultural practices e.g polygamy and Islam. The subject came under a system of law known as indigenat where the subject could suffer arbitrary arrest or be forced to serve a longer period in the army than assimilated citizens **Why the French government replaced the policy of assimilation with that of** **association in 1945** a) The French had realized that assimilation would lead to equality between them and the colonized people. b) Assimilation was too expensive especially because West African colonies were not selfsupporting yet. c) The method clashed with the commercial interests. The French businesspersons and their friends in the colonial administration saw Africans as source of cheap labour. They therefore disapproved the idea of uplifting them. d) The French had realized that not all the colonial people could be assimilated. Only the elite ones among them could. Association aimed at transforming the Native elites into Frenchmen while allowing the other masses to learn enough French for communication purposes. e) They had realized that there was need to allow the colonies to enjoy the freedom of developing according to existing traditional political and social structure. / respect for the culture of her colonies. **The similarities between the French and the British colonial administrations** a) Both methods emphasized the superiority of the colonial master and his overlord ship in Africa. The Europeans were in charge and took all senior positions. b) The administrative systems applied in both were meant to assist the colonial masters in controlling their territories in Africa. c) Both systems led to massive economic exploitation of resources in Africa. E.g. minerals, labour, and market land etc. d) In both Africans reacted to the systems in a hostile manner. e) Both methods led to loss of independence and freedom for the African. f) In both, every power trained a local army to maintain law and order. g) In both, Africans were oppressed through taxation and forced labour. h) In both, the position of chief was created where there was none. I.e. in Kenya, Southern Nigeria, and Somali. **Main differences** a) The British were keen to appoint traditional rulers as chiefs. The French on the other hand were not keen to appoint traditional rulers but simply handpicked individuals who met their qualifications (those who embraced French culture and civilization). b) The British gave the traditional rulers a lot of power, unlike the French who undermined African chieftaincies. c) The British colonies were administered separately by a governor accountable to Britain, unlike the French colonies which were governed as federations equated to provinces of France. d) Most of the French administrators were military officers. The British used a mixture of amateurs and professionals. e) Whereas the British applied mainly the policy of indirect rule, the French applied the policy of assimilation and later, association. f) The French colonies elected their representatives to the Chamber of Deputies in France, while British colonies had legislative councils where policies were debated in the colonies. g) Laws applied in the French colonies were legislated in France while in British colonies laws were enacted by the respective legislative assemblies. h) In French colonies, assimilated Africans became French citizens with full rights, while the elite in the British colonies remained colonial subjects. i) Indirect rule preserved African cultures while assimilation undermined them. **SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS DURING THE COLONIAL** **PERIOD IN KENYA.** **The Uganda Railway** The railway was built between 1896 and 1901 with George Whitehouse as the Engineer. Work was mainly done by 32,000 Indian coolies and 5,000 clerks and craftsmen. The locals could not provide skilled labour. It costed the British taxpayers about 6 million sterling pounds. Reasons for the construction of the Uganda railway line. a) To promote trade with the outside world by encouraging the exploitation of available resources and enable the colony sustain itself b) To link Uganda with the Coast so that the British can achieve their strategic interests. c) To enable missionaries to go the interior to spread Christianity. d) To help stop slave trade since slaves would no longer be needed to ferry goods to and from the coast. e) To provide quick, safe and convenient means of transport for government administrators/troops f) Open up Kenya for economic development/to stop slave trade/promote legitimate trade g) To maintain law and order so that economic development could be achieved. h) To make Africans more productive and able to generate revenue in form of tax to the colonial government. i) To activate interior trade to enable transportation of imported goods to the interior of the colony. **The construction** The railway construction works commenced in Mombasa in 1896. By 1901, the railway had reached Kisumu (then Port Florence) passing through Nairobi in 1899. Numerous feeder lines were later laid down as follows; The Nairobi Thika Branch(1914), Konza Magadi (1915), Voi- Moshi(1918), Rongai- Solai (1925), Eldoret-Kitale(1926), Eldoret- Jinja (1927), Gilgil-Nyahururu(1929), Thika- Nanyuki(1930)and Kisumu Butere(1930) In 1948, the Kenya Uganda Railway had been linked with the Tanganyika network to become the East African Railways. **Problems experienced during the construction of the Uganda railway.** a) There was insufficient labour since African labour force was not forthcoming. In the case of the Akamba and the Maasai, they were forcefully recruited. b) The climate of the interior was not suitable for the European labour force. The Europeans constantly fell ill, thus interfering with construction progress. c) The Arab rebellion under Mbaruk Rashid between 1895 96 at the coast delayed the railway construction. d) There was an additional expense of constructing special jetties since Mombasa port was not large enough. e) The Man-eaters of Tsavo created danger and havoc to the construction works. f) The rift valley terrain was difficult. It was rugged with many hills and escarpments thus causing difficulties in construction. g) Hostility of some Kenyan communities to intruders e.g. the Nandi who vandalized the railway and telegraph lines. h) Insufficient building material since most of them came from Europe and their delivery often delayed, **The effects of railway construction.** a) It led to development of European settler farming in order to make the railway pay for its construction. b) There was rampant land alienation. The colonial government alienated African land for railway construction forcing communities like the Maasai and Nandi to move into reserves. c) There was rise of wage labour for the railway and later for the settler farmers. d) It led to growth of urban centres along the railway line e.g. Nairobi. e) Railway construction promoted economic growth of the East African region. This is because farm produce and other commercial products could easily reach market. f) It led to rise of large Asian settlement since many Indians were employed as railway workers. This Asians boosted trade in east Africa. g) It led to development of other forms of infrastructure like the roads and telecommunication lines. This stimulated trade development. h) It led to transfer of the administrative capital from Mombasa in 1905 to Nairobi. i) When the railway reached Kisumu in 1902, it led to major changes to the ad ministrative boundaries within East African region. Initially, the western region up to Naivasha was part of Uganda. j) The railway became a major revenue source for the colonial authorities. k) It facilitated the establishment of colonial rule in Kenya since it was possible for rapid movement of troops. l) It facilitated the cultural and social interaction among the different races. m) The railway made rural-urban migration and the resultant enterprises such as hawking and charcoal selling possible. n) Other forms of transport and communication developed and expanded along the ralwayline. For example: roads and telecommunications. o) Christian missionaries were able to move into the interior, where they established missionschools. **SETTLER FARMING AND COLONIAL LAND POLICIES** As a means of raising revenue to meet the cost of administering the Kenya colony and maintain the Uganda railway, the colonial government encouraged the influx of white settlers to the white Highlands. The administration did this by; a) Providing efficient railway transport connecting the coast and the interior b) Alienating of the white highlands for European settlement. c) Advertising the availability of free land in foreign newspapers d) Giving loan incentives e) Providing security The settlers however faced the initial challenges of crop and animal diseases, labour shortage, lack of inputs and African aggression. **Why the colonial government encouraged white settlement in Kenya.** ***The reasons why the colonial administration led by Sir Charles Eliot (1900- 1904) and*** ***later Sir Edward Northey encouraged settler farming in the white highlands were;*** a) They hoped that settler farming would meet the cost of administration and railway maintenance. b) The British industries were also in need of cheaper raw Materials in an increasingly competitive European Market. These raw materials would be cheaply produced by the settlers. c) The settlers would also help control the prevailing Asian immigration and influence in Kenya. d) The colonial government wanted to make Kenya a white mans country by encouraging white settlers to form the backbone of the economy. e) Kenya Highlands had cool wet climate and fertile volcanic soils suitable for Europeansettlement and agriculture. f) There was need to get rid of social misfits in Europe and the landless who would be offered avenues in the Kenya colony. g) Existence of already willing entrepreneurs lake Lord Delamere and Captain Grogan who were ready to come to Kenya and engage in profitable agriculture. **Factors which promoted settler farming** a) The land policies availed cheap African labour to settler farmers. The alienation of African land and Creation of African reserves forced Africans to work in the settler farms. b) Africans in Kenya were not allowed to grow some cash crops in order to enable Europeans continue getting cheap African labour for their farms. c) The government built and maintained various forms of transport. For example the railway, Bridges and roads which facilitated faster movement of produce and inputs. d) The government Reduced freight charges in the importation and exportation of agricultural inputs and products. e) The government encouraged formation of cooperatives to help in the processing and marketing of produce. f) The establishment of financial institutions such as Agricultural Finance Corporation and Banks provided the settlers with credit facilities. g) The government availed extension services for crops and animal farming through the establishment of the Department of Agriculture and research stations to improve the quality of crops and animals. h) Trade tariffs were also removed and settlers were granted concessions. **Problems experienced by settlers.** a) Inadequate labour as Africans refused to work. Bush clearance and preparation of land for cultivation was therefore a problem. b) Constant raids by the local inhabitants such as the Nandi, Maasai and Agikuyu threatened their peace and security. Some communities even raided their dairy farms for cattle. c) Some of the settlers lacked faring experience. Some of the settlers had not engaged in farming before and therefore lacked basic agricultural knowledge. d) Inadequate capital often hindered procurement of farm inputs. Machinery, labour. Some settlers became bankrupt and could not meet the day to day operational costs on the farms. e) Lack of proper knowledge on farming seasons hence crop failure. The climate and soils in the colony were alien to the settlers. f) There was the problem of poor transport and communication as it had become difficult for the government to network all areas occupied by settlers with roads and communication lines. g) Inadequate and unreliable market for their produce. They mainly relied on foreign market which could not serve in the case of perishable commodities. h) Pests and diseases were prevalent in the white highlands. The settlers were assailed by various human, animal and crop disease. **Settler Crop cultivation** The main crops cultivated were coffee, wheat, tea and sisal. ***1) Coffee***. Coffee was first introduced by the Roman Catholic Fathers of St. Austins Mission near Nairobi in 1889. It required plenty of farm inputs in terms of chemicals and labour. Therefore was a preserve of wealthy European settlers.Coffee Planters Corporation was founded in 1908 by Lord Delameres Efforts, and led to the spread in the growing of coffee. By 1913, coffee had become the leading cash crop in Kenya grown mainly in Muranga, Thika and Kiambu.Africans were unfortunately not allowed to grow coffee until 1937 **Reasons why Africans in Kenya were not allowed to grow coffee before 1937** a) Europeans wanted to continue getting cheap African labour for their farms. This could not be available if Africans were allowed to earn some money through growing of coffee. b) European settlers did not want to compete with Africans in coffee growing. They feared that it would limit market for their produce. c) The settlers claimed that Africans did not have knowledge of growing coffee. They claimed that African participation in cash crop growing would lead to low quality products. d) They feared that diseases would spread from African farms to settler plantations. e) European settlers claimed that African farmers would produce low quality coffee due to inadequate resources. ***2) Wheat.*** It was introduced in Kenya in 1903 by Lord Delamere who experimented on his Njoro farm. It was however until 1912, when a more resistant variety was developed, that wheat growing took root in Kenya.In 1908, Lord Delamere set up Unga Ltd which boosted wheat farming in Kenya. It was grown in the Nakuru and Uasin Gishu areas. Like coffee, wheat farming was the preserve of wealthy European settlers from Australia, Canada, Britain and South Africa. Africans began to grow wheat only after independence. ***3) Sisal.*** It was introduced in Kenya from Tanganyika in 1893 by Richard Hindorf, a german Doctor. Initially, it was cultivated around Thika in 1904. By 1920, it had become the second largest income-earning crop after coffee.The main sisal growing areas included Baringo, Koibatek, Ol Donyo Sabuk, Ruiru, Thika, Voi, Taita and Taveta.Africans began growing coffee in 1964 though its growth declined due to the completion it faced from synthetic fibre. ***4) Tea.*** Tea was introduced in Kenya in 1903 around Limuru by Messrs Caine Brothers. It was until 1925 when tea began being grown successful with large tea estates being established by tea companies like Brooke Bond and Africa Highland from India.The main tea growing areas were Nandi, Kericho, Sotik, Nakuru, Muranga and Kiambu. **Stock rearing.** Lord Delamere carried out many experiments in sheep and cattle rearing at his Equator Ranch in Njoro though the Maasai raids in his farm and cattle diseases frustrated his efforts.After cross-breeding exotic types with local stock, he came up with more resistant variety. The government also set up an experimental livestock farm in Naivasha. In 1925, the Kenya Cooperative Creameries was established due to Delameres efforts. Later, the Uplands Bacon Factory was established near Limuru to promote pig rearing. In 1930, the Kenya Farmers Association (KFA) was established Colonial land policies in Kenya.To empower the settlers to take up more arable land in Kenya, the Legislative council passed the following Land Acts or Ordinances; 1) The Indian Acquisition Act (1896). it empowered the authorities to take over land for the railway, government construction and public utilities. 2) The Land Regulations Act (1897). It allowed the government to offer a certificate of occupation and a lease of 99 years. This Act encouraged settlers to take up land left vacant by the Agikuyu due to drought and famine. 3) The East African Land Order in Council (1901). It defined crown land as all public land which was not private. The government could take up any land at will, sell it or lease it for use by settlers. 4) The Crown Land Ordinance (1902). It allowed the government to sell or lease crown land to Europeans at 2 rupees per 100 acres or rent at 15 rupees per 100 acres annually. 5) The Maasai Agreement (1904). It led to creation of the Ngong and Laikipia reserves while the settlers took up Maasai land for livestock farming. For example Lord Delamere in Nakuru. 6) The Elgin Pledge of 1906. The government through the British Secretary of State, Lord Elgin confirmed that the Highlands were reserved for settlers. This barred the Asian attempts to buy land in the highlands. 7) The second Maasai Agreement of 1911. The Maasai were pushed out of the fertile Laikipia reserve to pave way for more European settlement and large scale farming. 8) The Crown Land Ordinance (1915). This provided for land registration scheme for settlers. It defined crown land as land occupied by and reserved for Africans who could be evicted any time. Farm sizes wee increased from 5,000 to 7,500 acres. 9) The Kenya Annexation Order in Council (1920). It announced that Africans were tenants of the crown even in the reserves. 10) The Land Commission (1924). It fixed boundaries of the reserves, which were later legalized in 1926. 11) The Native Trust Ordinance (1930). It stated that African reserves belonged t the Africans permanently. 12) The Carter Commission (1932). It fixed the boundaries of the white highlands, leading to population pressure in the African reserves. All Africans were removed from the highlands into the reserves. 13) The Kenya Highlands Order in Council (1939). It fixed boundaries of the white highlands and reserved them permanently and exclusively for Europeans. **Effects of the colonial land policies** a) The displaced Africans were confined to native reserves thus leading to congestion/overuse of land. By 1914, settlers like Lord Delamere and Captain Crogan owned 100,000 and 220,000 acres of land, respectively, at the expense of African congestion in the reserves. b) Africans who lost their land became poor. Many Africans became squatters and lived in misery and hopelessness. c) The situation in the reserves and the landlessness forced to supply labour in settler farms for wages in order to pay taxes. d) The displaced Africans moved to towns looking for employment. Their movement to towns led to growth of urban centres. e) The traditional socio-economic set-up of the Africans was disrupted. Communities could no longer migrate in search of better lands and pasture. Family roles changed as women increasingly took over headship of families while men sought for paid employment. f) The large European farms suffered acute shortage of labour as many Africans were unwilling to work on them. g) It led to the introduction of the Kipande System enforced by the Native Registration Ordinances of 1915 and 1920, to prevent the African labourers from deserting their duties on European farms. h) Taxes were imposed on Africans and were to be paid only in monetary form. This was meant to compel Africans seek for wage employment. i) The reserving of the highlands for the whites only denied Indians access to agricultural land, compelling them to resort to businesses and residences in urban areas. j) Loss of land led to bitterness and made Africans later to form political organizations to demand for their land/spread of nation **THE DEVONSHIRE WHITE PAPER.** The Mandate of the League of Nations compelled Britain, just like any other colonial authority to institute reforms that would involve addressing African grievances. Governor Edward Northey who had given many concessions to the settlers was recalled to Britain in 1922. **Other reforms that were instituted were;** a) Abandonment of Racial segregation policy in Kenya except in the highlands. b) Allowing Asians to elect four members to the Legco, which was initially settlerdominated. This however was not done until 1933.In March 1923, settlers in a form of protest to these reforms sent a delegation to London to try to settle scores with the Secretary for Colonies, the Duke of Devonshire. The fundamental set of principles that were issued in this meeting are what came to be known as the Devonshire White Paper. **Factors that led to the issuing of the Devonshire white paper.** a) The influence of The Dual Mandate. This was a book of the League of Nations that had regulations concerning colonial mandates. Britain was committed to the principle of trusteeship whereby she was interested on its African population than European settlement b) The rise of race conflicts i.e. Africans versus European dominion and European versus Asian conflicts. The Indians were opposed to the privileged position of European settlers. c) The banning of racial segregation .The decision by the colonial government to ban racial segregation apart from the white highlands only, disappointed the settlers who wanted the ban lifted hence they sent a delegation to London to see the colonial secretary. d) The African general resentment. Their resentment was on land alienation, forced labour, taxation system, kipande system, low wages and no political representation. **Terms of the Devonshire White Paper** a) White highlands were reserved for European settlement only b) Indians would be allowed to elect five members to LEGCO not on a common roll, but on a communal roll. c) Racial segregation was abolished in all residential areas. d) Restriction on Indian immigration was lifted e) A nominated missionary was to represent African interests in the LEGCO. f) The European Settlers demand for self government in Kenya was rejected. g) African interests were declared paramount before those of immigrant races if there was a conflict. h) The settlers were to maintain their representation in the LEGCO. i) The Colonial Secretary was given mandate to exercise strict control over the affairs of the colony. **Implications of the Devonshire white paper.** The issuance of the paper left the Settlers, Asians and Africans more dissatisfied than ever before as follows; On the part of the settlers; a) The Indian call for equality, to them, was unrealistic since they could not stomach the mixing of Oriental and Western cultures in Kenya. b) Since European culture was superior, they felt that racial segregation was justified in all spheres. c) To the settlers, instead of giving in the Indians grievances, they would rather give in to African demands since they had moral rights to protect African interests. d) To them, the white highlands were primarily theirs and they had a legal claim over them. ***On the Asian part;*** a) They wanted equality of all races instead of settler dominance in Kenya especially pertaining to settlement in the white highlands. b) They opposed policies on residential segregation and restriction on their immigration. The government was inviting more settlers to check Indian immigration into Kenya by this time. c) They wanted direct and adequate representation in the Legco based on a common roll free election (not communal roll). d) They objected separate taxation for Europeans and Indians and segregated education. The Devonshire White paper was therefore viewed as the product of the struggle between the Asians and the Europeans. The paper made the Asians join their African comrades in the struggle for freedom, especially in the trade Union Movement.Settler dominance In Kenyan affairs continued upto 1963 despite recommendations done in the white paper. **Results of the Devonshire white paper** a) The Devonshire white paper saved Kenya from becoming another Rhodesia or South Africa.The European demand for self-government was rejected. b) In theory, settlers dominance was weakened but in practice, the white paper upheld the dominance of the settlers more than that of the Africans e.g. segregation in residential areas in towns continued, they dominated the economy because they retained the white highlands. c) The paper did not satisfy the Asians since they did not gain access to the white highlands. d) Although many Asians came to Kenya, the Asians did not achieve equality with Europeans through a Common Roll. The Indian congress refused to cooperate with the government; they declined to hold elections for the Legislative Council seats offered to them. No Asian seats, five in all were occupied until 1933. e) Africans were to be represented by a nominated missionary, John Arthur, instead of representation by an African. For the first time, Africans were represented in the Legco. f) The Devonshire White Paper Benefited the Africans by declaring/recognizing Kenya as an African country where African interests should be paramount g) It failed to resolve African land and labour grievances. h) It sensitized the Africans on their plight leading to formation of politi cal parties. **URBANIZATION** Towns that were already in existence before the advent of colonialism include Mombasa, Lamu and Malindi. Many other towns in the interior grew during the colonial period. **Factors which led to the establishment of urban centres in Kenya during the** **colonial period** a) Development of transport network. Construction of roads and the Uganda railway led to growth of some towns as transport terminus or along the transport lines e.g. Nairobi, Voi, Nakuru and Kisumu. b) Growth of trade in the interior of Kenya. Most towns began as trading centres for Indian commercial entrepreneurs. E.g Machakos, Nakuru, Kisumu, Nairobi and Voi. c) Development of administrative posts. The colonial government established administrative posts in various parts of the country. These posts later grew into urban centres. E.g Fort Hall, Embu, Kapsabet, Meru and Garissa. d) Rural-urban migration. The movement to urban areas by African labourers from various parts of the country led to further growth of urban centres. e) Development of agriculture. Settler farming led to growth of towns like Eldoret which began as agricultural collection centres f) Development of Agro-based industries like flour mills, meat-processing plants and sawmills which attracted labourers from all parts of the country to be transformed into urban centres. g) Development of mining activities. This stimulated development of industries in the mining areas leading to urban growth. E.g. Kakamega, Athi River and Magadi. **Why Africans moved to urban areas in colonial Kenya.** a) The Urban centres had recreational facilities and social amenities which attracted the Africans, fed up with hardship conditions in the reserves. b) The Africans expected Job opportunities with better wages in the towns where there were industries as compared to the rural areas. c) Some Africans were escaping from forced labour and taxation. d) The African entrepreneurs wanted to take advantage of the wider markets in the towns to escape poverty in the crowded reserves. **Ways through which the colonial government controlled Africans migration to** **urban centers.** a) Taking headcount of those who were supposed to live in urban centres b) Enacting strict rules about migration into urban centre c) Creation of African reserves d) Ensuring that only those who had specific activities to undertake in the urban centres lived there e) Introduction of kipande system. **Positive effects of urbanization during the colonial period.** a) It promoted interaction between people of diverse ethnic and racial backgrounds, who exchanged ideas and experiences. The centres became seedbeds of political activities that eventually culminated into the struggle for independence. b) Urbanization promoted national integration and instilled a sense of nationhood among Kenyans as it watered down the differences and prejudices between communities. c) The welfare associations formed by Africans in urban areas, like the Bara Association in Mombasa for all hinterland people, united them for a common cause by lessening ethnic hostilities. d) Through sporting and cultural activities that took place in towns, relationships between different ethnic groups and races were cemented. e) Many Africans benefitted from the numerous employment opportunities as shoe shiners and repairers, charcoal sellers, hawking in industries and in European homes. f) Due to the Abundance of labour and raw materials, industries in urban areas expanded further. **Negative effects of urbanization during the colonial period in Kenya** a) There were inadequate housing facilities to meet the demands of the people. This led to overcrowding especially in slums/shanties led to the outbreak of diseases. Lack of planning of housing led to poor drainage and sanitation facilities. b) Africans in urban areas were subjected to racial discrimination. The social services provided to the Africans were inadequate and of poor quality. Even houses in towns were occupied according to the various racial groups, with Europeans enjoying the best facilities. c) Increased population in urban centres led to serious water shortages. d) Establishment of industries in urban centres led to pollution of the environment, whichaffected the health of the inhabitants. e) There was rampant unemployment as urban centres could not cope with the large influx of labourers and increased competition for the available jobs f) Many unemployed people in urban areas got involved in social vices / crimes such as drug abuse, alcoholism and promiscuity, due to desperation and poverty. g) Africans working in urban centres received low wages with employers taking advantage of the high supply of labour, which affected their standards of living. h) The mass rural-urban migration brought about intensification of migration regulations to control the numbers of African migrants. The Kipande system became stricter. i) Economic activities in the rural areas were disrupted by the absence of men who had moved to urban areas. Women took up mens roles. **EDUCATION AND HEALTH** **Education.** Formal education in colonial Kenya was provided by four groups; ~ The Christian Missionaries. ~ The Colonial government through local councils. ~ The Africans themselves. ~ Community organizations(Asians) Major milestones in the development of education in Kenya during the colonial period. Initially, the provision of education was the preserve of the missionaries. For example, the Church Missionary Society (CMS) pioneered by setting up a school at Rabai in 1844 and another in Mombasa in 1873. **Features of Missionary education** a) It was elementary. The subjects taught included religion, writing, reading, reading, hygiene and arithmetic. b) It was industrial and technical in approach, aiming at training Africans to be carpenters, masons, agricultural assistants and shoe repairers. c) It was denominational and aimed at inculcating doctrines of a particular church in the learners. **Objectives of Missionary education.** a) To impart in the Africans Agricultural Skills in order to promote settler farming. b) To give the Africans basic technical skills to improve their industrial knowledge. c) To train some Africans as Catechists to enhance the spread of Christianity. d) To offer Africans basic literacy and numeracy to read the bible and do simple arithmetic.Education development in Kenya in the period between 1904 and 1963 was facilitated by the following factors; 1) The WWI ex-soldiers experiences which convinced them of the advantage of higher education. 2) Increase in African nationalism that demanded for better education for Africans. 3) The need to produce better and more skilled manpower for the future independent Kenya. 4) Primary education had produced qualified children who needed higher education. In 1911, the colonial government agreed to share the burden of providing education to Africans with the missionaries. In 1913, the first Government African School was started at Machakos. It became a centre for Technical and Teacher training. In 1918, the education commission made the following far-reaching recommendations to the government in line with the Fraser Commission report of 1908 which had recommended a racially segregated system of education; a) Provision of technical education to Africans. b) Maintenance of racially segregated Schools. c) More cooperation between the colonial government and the missionaries. d) Appeals for grants-in-aid for mission schools. In 1924, a commission came to Kenya (the Phelps Stokes Commission) to look into the education situation. It recommended that Africans should receive Practical AgriculturalOriented Education suitable for rural areas. Other recommendations included; a) That there should be a uniform system of education in all government and missionary schools. b) That sufficient training for teachers and related personnel should be enhanced by establishing colleges. c) That schools should be built in the rural areas. This was done through the education ordinance of 1924. Due to its recommendations, the Native Industrial Training Centre was built at Kabete in 1924 and Jeanes School, Kabete (1925) for offering technical and industrial education. Other schools were started later at Kapsabet, Kajiado, Tambach, Kitui, Kwale, Kabianga and Kapenguria.The 1924 Education Ordinance created an advisory committee on African education. The representation to the committee was missionaries, colonial officials and settlers. The same year, more schools were built with the assistance of the newly formed Local Native Councils. In 1931, another Education Ordinance helped in the establishment of Kakamega GAS In 1932, Kisii GAS in 1934, and Kabianga. Finance for African education was to come from the colonial government.From 1925, the missionaries began providing advanced level education to Africans. Initially secondary education was the preserve of the Europeans. In 1926, the Alliance of protestant missionaries set up Alliance High School. Catholics established Kabaa in 1927 and Mangu School in Thika in 1930 for Africans. In 1938 and 1939, Maseno and St. Marys Yala were started as secondary schools. **Achievements of missionaries in provision of education.** a) They designed a curriculum with emphasis on agriculture, tailoring, masonry and carpentry. b) They established the first secondary schools for Africans such as Alliance (1926), Kabaa (1927), Maseno (1938 and Yala (1939). c) They trained African teachers to man the Bush Schools (schools found in remote areas consisting of mud huts with grass-thatched roofs) and teach in independent schools. d) They offered the necessary financial and material support to make these schools operational. Secondary schools for whites included Prince of Wales (Nairobi School), and Duke of York (Lenana School) for European boys, Kenya Girls High School (Kenya High) and Limuru Girls for European Girls.Schools for Indians include the Asian Railway School (1904) and other schools developed by the government in Mombasa and Nairobi. Also community-based schools like Allidina Visram and the Arya Samaj Foundation.Hospital School became the first multi-racial school in 1953.In 1934, a District Education Board was created to plan education in districts, establish primaryschools and manage the schools.In 1949, the Beecher Committee was instituted to look into African education From 1961, Asian and African pupils begun to join European schools.Provision of elementary education by Africans was pioneered by John Owalo of the Nomiya Luo Mission in 1910. **University Education.** Africans in Kenya got opportunity for university education at Makerere which was established in 1922 initially as a technical college and became an affiliate of the University of London on 1949. In 1954, the Royal Technical College, Nairobi began to offer higher education and became an affiliate of the university of London in 1959 to offer the first degree courses in 1961 when it became known as the royal college. **Community based education** This was done mainly by Asian families of Ismaili and Arya Samaj for the Indian traders in urban areas. Allidina Visram, A wealthy man, also established centres of higher education. **African Role in educational provision** Africans began their own schools for the following reasons; a) They wanted to protect certain cultural practices like feral circumcision and polygamy. b) They wanted to access higher education, since the government and missionaries were only offering them technical and industrial education, so that to be able to compete for the white-collar jobs with other races. c) They would also use the schools as a forum to air their grievances and to create political awareness in their community. The Nomiya Luo Mission built several schools in Nyanza between 1908 and 1910. Other schools were built in Gem-Luanda region between 1913 and 1918 and in central Kenya in 1923 in Kiambu. In 1934, the Kikuyu Independent Schools Association (KISA) and the Kikuyu Karinga Education Association founded more schools. In 1938, Githunguri Teacher Training College had been established under Mbiyu Koinange. **Health.** **Developments in provision of health services in colonial Kenya** Initially, just like in the case of education, the Christian missionaries were concerned with provision of health services in colonial Kenya. The colonial government was majorly concerned with eradication of plague, malaria and sleeping disease which the Pioneer European settlers suffered from. Preventive medicine was later introduced to help stop various infections of killer diseases.The Church of Scotland Mission and the Church Missionary Society soon opened medical facilities in Kikuyu (1902), Kaimosi (1903), Kaloleni (1904) and Maseno (1905). Dr, Arthur, a missionary and pioneer doctor, put up the Thogoto Mission Hospital in 1907 and the facility exists prominently upto today as the Kikuyu Eye Unit Hospital and Kikuyu Rehabilitation Centre. **Objectives of the Health centres.** a) To eradicate diseases such as smallpox, malaria and sleeping sickness. b) To train medical personnel to handle western medicine. c) To improve health and hygiene for Africans and Asians in towns where they lived in overcrowded areas lacking in sanitary facilities. Africans began being trained in the provision of emergence health services during the first war. (The East African Medical Corps was formed). Between 1919 1922, missionaries began to train Africans as Medical Dressers and Dispensers. After the opening of the Alliance medical college in 1920 and the establishment of a Medical training centre under the Nurses and Midwives Ordinance many African school leavers trained as laboratory and pharmacy assistants.A Public Health Ordinance was passed in 1921 giving the Medical Department powers to institute measures for the control of malaria and prevent communicable diseases. As a follow up to the 1921 Ordinance, new health units were established in the four different African reserves. The Rural Dispensary System was established to supplement the missionary efforts in provision of health care. Health centres were built in rural areas as part of the colonial government efforts to improve health facilities.After 1945, the Development and Research Authority (DARA) gave 47,000 sterling pounds for health care and improvement of health services. In 1949, the Bureau of Medical Research was set up as an agency of the East African High Commission.In 1950 King George IV hospital (today the Kenyatta National Hospital) was started as a hospital for Africans and in 1951, it started training female nurses.By 1962, there were over 100 rural health centres in the country. **Role of Africans in Health Provision** Africans were more pre-occupied with superstitions and over-reliance on traditional medicine which negated their participation in provision healthcare..The traditional medicinemen were dismissed by missionaries despite their wealthy knowledge on herbal Medicine. Today, many people rely on traditional herbalists to compliment healthcare provision. **POLITICAL DEVELOPMENTS AND STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE IN** **KENYA (1919-1963)** **Early Political Organizations In Kenya Upto 1939** African participation in the First World War contributed to rapid political developments in Kenya in the following ways; a) When many African from different communities and countries met, they realized that they shared numerous interests and problems which necessitated political unity. b) The Africans disapproval of the Whitemans immortality during the war, as he could also get wounded, die and suffer like them. This motivated them to strive for equal rights when they came back. c) The introduction of many unfair measures after the war made their lives difficult. For example, governor Northey introduced the Soldier settlement scheme in 1919 to settle British ex-soldiers while African ex-soldiers got a raw deal. **Other factors for the rise of early political organizations included;** a) The introduction of the Kipande system in 1920 which was used to force Africans to provide labour for the European settlers. b) The replacement of the Indian Rupee with the shilling in 1921 meant that those in possession of the rupee had valueless money at a short notice. c) The reduction of African wages and the increase in hut tax and poll tax in 1920 from 10 to 16 shillings. d) The change of status of Kenya from a protectorate to a colony in 1920 which d awned on the Africans that the Whiteman was here to stay unless this move was fought. **Kikuyu Association** This was the first political organization in Kenya. It was founded in 1920 by Loyalist Kikuyu chiefs, concerned about the continued grabbing of African land for European settlement.They also complained about the planned reduction of African wages after the replacement of the rupee with the shilling, the kipande system which they equated to slavery.The patron was Paramount Chief Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and Chief Koinange wa Mbiyu was the president. The secretary was I.M.Ishmael. Other members were Josiah Njonjo, Philip Karanja, Mathew Njoroge and Waweru wa Mahui. The Association, being made of loyalist chiefs, was never aggressive in its demands. The members therefore failed to get any meaningful concessions from the government.Later, Harry Thuku and Abdalla Tairara joined the association together with other Christian converts who were labourers, colonial house servants and clerks in Nairobi and central Kenya.When Thuku tried to introduce radicalism in the Association, he was forced to decamp on 7th June 1921 and founded the Young Kikuyu Association. **The East African Association.** It began off as Young Kikuyu Association (YKA) in 1921 having been inspired by the Young Buganda Association in Uganda. Its founders included Harry Thuku, Abdalla Tairara, Mwalimu Hamisi and Muhamed Sheikh.Harry Thuku, the leading founder of this association was a mission educated elite who was working as a telephone operator in Nairobi. He became dissatisfied with the nonaggressiveness of the Kikuyu Association which was dominated by loyalist chiefs, in pressing the colonial government for Africans demands.YKA being very aggressive demanded; ~ The return of African land. ~ Better working conditions for Africans. ~ Reduction of taxes. ~ Withdrawal of Kipande system which had been introduced in 1920. ~ Increase in wages. YKA incorporated other ethnic community members thus necessitating it to change the name to the East African Association in July 1921. The officials included Harry Thuku (Chairman) George Samuel Okoth, Abdalla Tairara, Kibwana Kambo, Jesse Kangethe, Z. K. Sentongo from Uganda, Maitei ole Mootian, Molanket ole Sempele from Tanzania, James Mwanthi and Muhamed Sheikh. EAA became a very popular association in the 1920s attracting huge crowd in its meetings. **Grievances of the East African Association** ~ They were demanding for the removal of the status of Kenya as a colonial territory. ~ They were demanding for a common roll for all in the legislative council elections. ~ They wanted the return of the alienated land, back to African owners. ~ They were opposed to forced labour. ~ They wanted more educational facilities and opportunities for Africans. ~ They were demanding that all labour in urban areas be paid fair wages. ~ They wanted the compulsory selling of cattle be stopped. ~ Removal of Kipande System. ~ Protested European domination of government. ~ Wanted hut tax that was exclusively paid by Africans abolished. Due to the radical approach that was adopted by Harry Thuku, the colonial Governor had him arrested on 15th March 1922 and detained at the Kingsway Police Station (now Nairobi Central Police Station). On 16th March 1922, a Kikuyu Woman, Muthoni Nyanjiru, challenged the African men to violence demanding the release of Thuku. More than 21 people including Muthoni Nyanjiru, were killed when the police opened fire on the over 1000 people who were surging forward.Harry Thuku was deported to Kisimayu. His colleagues Waiganjo and Mugekenji were banished to Lamu as EAA was banned. **Consequences of Harry Thukus arrest** a) The political parties that succeeded the EAA continued using even more radical approach when they realized that the colonial government was determined to continue using Iron Rule in Kenya. b) Governor Edward Northey was recalled to London by the then Colonial Secretary, Sir Winston Churchill due to the way he mishandled the Thuku affair. c) The colonial government did not allow formation of any other countrywide political Associations among Africans until 1945. d) Thuku became the undisputed flag-bearer of Kenyan Nationalism prior to formation of later political parties. **The kikuyu central association.** When EAA was banned, its former officials Joseph Kangethe and Jesse Kariuki founded the Kikuyu central Association. It was formed in 1924 at Kahuhia, Fort Hall with Kangethe becoming the president and Henry Gichuru, secretary. Job Muchuchu (Treasurer), James Beauttah (secretary-general) and Jesse Kariuki (vice-president). All these were extremist politicians whose activities were closely monitored by the government. **Grievances of the Kikuyu Central Association.** ~ They were demanding for the removal of the 1915 Crown Land Ordinance that made Africans mere tenants and not real owners of their land. ~ They were demanding for African representation in the Legislative Council. ~ They were opposed to forced labour. ~ They wanted free primary education as opposed to the colonial education system. ~ Establishment of a secondary school, training facility for hospital workers and a school for girls. ~ Removal of kipande system. ~ They demanded that all colonial laws be translated into Gikuyu Language so that all members of the community could understand them. ~ They demanded for the appointment of a well-educated Paramount Chief elected by the majority of the Agikuyu. ~ Wanted hut tax abolished and other taxes reduced ~ They advocated for the growing of coffee and other cash crops by Africans. ~ To work towards the restoration of alienated African land. ~ To pressurize the colonial government to abolish racial segregation. ~ Respect of African culture & customs e.g. Circumcision/polygamy ~ Agitating release of political prisoners e.g. Harry Thuku. By 1925, KCA had attracted membership from all large urban centres in Kenya and the Kikuyu squatters in the Rift Valley. They presented their demands to Governor Grigg when he visited Fort Hall in 1925.In 1927, KCA relocated its headquarters from Muranga to Nairobi in order to link up with other Kenyan elites. In 1928, Jomo Kenyatta became its Secretary- General, taking over from James Beauttah who had been transferred from Nairobi in an act of sabotage by the government. Kenyatta started the Association newspaper, Muigwithania which was instrumental in reviving the cultural values of the Agikuyu.When the Hilton Young Commission was formed in 1927 to look into the question of the federation of Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika, KCA through Jomo Kenyatta presented the following demands to it; ~ Introduction of free primary education for Africans. ~ Provision of secondary and higher education for Africans. ~ Abolition of kipande system ~ Appointment of Africans to LEGCO ~ Release of Harry Thuku ~ Giving of Title Deeds to Africans as a guarantee against any further land alienation. ~ Rejection of the proposed East Africa Federation KCA championed female circumcision arguing that it was a beautiful cultural practice which eradicated prostitution in the community. When the Church of Scotland Mission, African inland Mission and CMS expelled all sympathizers with the practice from their missions, KCA responded by leading the pack in the beginning of independent schools and churches.KCA sent Jomo Kenyatta, accompanied by Parmenas Mukiri, to present Agikuyu grievances in 1929 to the colonial office in London. It also helped kikuyu elders in preparing evidence to the Kenya Land Commission in 1931.Rivalry for power within the KCA between 1931 and 1938 nearly rocked the association.The Association was banned in 1940 alongside others. **Kavirondo Tax Payers and Welfare Association** It started as Young Kavirondo Association (YKA) in December 1921 at a Baraza held in Ludha, central Nyanza, by mission educated Luo and Luhyia men. The meeting was meant to discuss issues affecting African communities.The official of the Association were Jonathan Okwiri (chairman), Simon Nyende (Treasurer), Benjamin Owuor (secretary), Rueben Omulo, Ezekiel Apindi, George Samuel Okoth, Mathayo Otieno, Joel Omino and Jolmeo Okaka. The demands of the YKA included; ~ They were demanding for addressing of the problem of change of the status of Kenya from a protectorate to colonial territory. ~ Demanded for a government school to be built in central Nyanza. ~ Demanded for a self- government for nyanza province with a separate legislative council and an elected African president. ~ They were opposed to forced labour and labour camps. ~ An end to land alienation. ~ Creation of the position of paramount chief for central and southern Nyanza, just like Mumias was for northern Nyanza. ~ Removal of Kipande System. ~ Demanded to be given title deeds for their land. ~ Wanted hut tax removed. ~ The advocated for better wages. The members presented their demands to the Nyanza PC in May 1922 and met governor Northey in Kisumu in July 1922 at Nyahera in Kisumu. The governor agreed to authorize the closing down of labour camps and reduce taxation. However, the revocation of the Crown Colony Status was out of question.In 1923, however, government, alarmed by the mobilization level of YKA in Nyanza, compromised its leadership and Jonathan Okwiri handed over chairmanship to Archdeacon Owen fearing the banning of the association the way EAA had been.Under Owen YKA changed its name to KTWA with its emphasis shifting from political grievances to social grievances focusing on killing rats, digging latrines and keeping compounds clean. It also adopted the use of written memoranda in expressing their grievances. All Nyanza chiefs became Vice-presidents of the association under its new constitution.In 1931, the association split up into Luo and Luyia Factions due to disagreements. The Abaluhyia faction formed the North Kavirondo Central Association that had close links with the KCA. It was formed with the objective of stopping any further land alienation for European use without compensation, especially after the 1930s Kakamega Gold rush.By 1944, many of the top leaders of the KTWA had been co-opted into the colonial administration with Okwiri becoming a chief. Benjamin Owuor, Nyende and Okwiri were made members of the LNC in central Nyanza. KWTA was therefore weakened and became extinct in 1944. **Ukamba Members Association** UMA was formed in 1938 by Samuel Muindi Mbingu (Chairman), Elijah Kavula (Vice- chairman), Isaac Mwalozi (secretary) and Simon Kioko (treasurer) as an association of the Akamba of the eastern part of Kenya.The leaders who founded this association were closely associated with East African Association of Harry Thuku. For example, James Mwanthi, Ali Kilonzi and Muhamed Sheikh. **Reasons for the formation of Ukamba Members Association** a) The Akamba wanted to fight against land alienation for European ranchers causing shortage of land for grazing. b) To oppose the colonial policy of de-stocking who argued that overstocking was responsible for soil erosion in Kitui and Machakos regions. In 1936, the Liebigs Group established a meat processing plant to effect the de-stocking policy. c) To oppose heavy taxation. d) To represent the Akamba peoples interests. e) To fight for the Akamba rights and freedoms They wrote memorandum to the colonial government with the assistance of Asian lawyers. It mobilized people to fight for their rights through meetings and signing of petitions. They got support from KCA and the Asian representative to the Legco, Isher Das.The association used Muigwithania journal of KCA to advance their cause. On 28th July 1938, UMA members including women and children demonstrated and marched to Nairobi with their cattle to seek audience with the governor over destocking and grazing policies. They staged a sit in Nairobi for 6 weeks led by Muindi Mbingu until the governor conceded to their demands at a meeting in Machakos. However, their leader, Muindi Mbingu was arrested in September 1938 and deported to Lamu until 1946. The Association was banned at the beginning of World War II. **Problems that faced UMA in its operations** a) The colonial government had a negative attitude towards the activities of the association. This discouraged open participation. b) Arrest of their leader Muindi Mbingu and his deportation to Lamu demoralized the movement. c) The Association alongside others was banned, with the World War II looming. **Coast Africa Association** The Association was formed in 1943 with Noah Mwana Sele as president, Muhamed bin Mwichande as vice president, E.W. Timothy as secretary General and H.G.Banks as honorary treasurer. Other officials were Muhamed bin Omar, Enoch Benjamin and H. Harrison. b) The elevation of Shimo la Tewa to a high school. c) The establishment of evening classes in the region so as to give African adults a chance to pursue basic western education. d) to protest inadequate healthcare services for the Africans. e) They were demanding for appointment of Africans as administrators. f) They demanded that tax collected from African drinks be used to develop African rural areas. g) They demanded for the revocation of allocation of Mijikenda land to Asians and Arabs. h) They demanded for African representation of Coast region in the LEGCO in 1947. Unlike other Associations CAA did not present their grievances in political meetings bur instead used written memoranda and also their newspaper, the Coast African Express whose editor wads Elkana Young. This explains why the association existed while others had been banned. ***In 1955 however, the association began to disintegrate due to the following reasons;*** a) The departure of their leaders Francis Khamisi and Ronald Ngala who joined the Mombasa African democratic union and the LEGCO. b) Leadership wrangles based on ethnic consideration. c) Shortage of funds to run the activities of the association. It succeeded in achieving elevation of Shimo la Tewa school into a high school and a Legco position for the Mijikenda. **Taita hills Association** It was formed on 22nd June 1939, being modeled on the KCA and UMA styles. Its objectives were; ~ To achieve equal political status with whites and Asians. ~ To help the Taita community to advance. ~ To protest the destocking policy. Most of the fertile land of the community had been occupied by European settlers who were growing coffee on it. ~ Oppose the plan to relocate the Wada Wida people from Taita hills to Samburu to create room for settlers. ~ They were opposed to the kipande system and forced labour. The Europeans forced the Wataita to work on coffee plantations and ferry the coffee over long distances for low wages.The pioneer founder of the Association was Daniel Mapinga, a young catechist, who began mobilizing the Wataita against oppressive measures used by the colonial government. Unfortunately he died in 1837.In 1939, Woresho Kolandi Mengo, Jimmy Mwambichi and Paul Chumbo took over his course and established THA with the help of KCA leadership. **Achievements** a) The association succeeded in stopping the governments plan to relocate the Wada Wida people from Taita hills to Samburu to create room for settlers. b) The colonial government stopped the de-stocking plan among the Wataita. c) The government revised the Taita reserve boundaries and reduced the land initially carved for European settlers. **Problems experienced** a) It failed to attract prominent personalities I Tata. b) It lacked support of all the African groups in the region. For example the Wataveta and Wagisiga were reluctant to join THA. c) The association was banned alongside others in May 1940. d) Their leader Mwambichi was deported after being arrested. **Problems faced by early political organizations.** a) Their members were subjected to harassment by the colonial government, especially arresting and dispersing demonstrators. b) The organizations were demoralized through the deportation of the leaders like Thuku (EAA). Muindi Mbingu (UMA) and Mwambichi (THA). c) The associations experienced political wrangles between members as witnessed in KCA between 1931 1nd 1839 and CAA upon departure of its tow key leaders. d) Many of the leaders of the organizations had little experience in running political parties and therefore mismanaged their offices. e) The organizations were faced with financial inadequacy. Many Africans were experiencing financial problems due to land alienation, taxation and poor working conditions and therefore could not adequately contribute to the associations. f) There was a lot of disunity since most organizations were ethnic-based **Features of the political associations formed in Kenya before 1939** a) They lacked a national outlook since they were ethnic (tribal based/oriented/urban based). Most of them were confined to one or two ethnic communities except EAA. b) Most of them received material and moral support from the Asians c) Mission-Educated African young men led them. For example, Harry Thuku, Okwiri and Mwambichi. d) They were formed in response to socio-economic and land problems of various ethnic groups. e) They all agitated for an end to European exploitation and oppression rather than demand for political independence. f) Most of them did not attract large membership due to their ethnic tendency. g) They were non-militant and tended to be moderate and their demanded. h) They were characterized by squabbles over leadership. **Achievements of early political parties.** a) They provided political education to the African communities through their political rallies. b) They communicated the communities feelings to the colonial government through publications, memoranda or speeches. c) They defended the African cultures against further erosion by the European missionaries. For example KCA defended female circumcision among agikuyu. d) They re-awakened the masses by making them conscious of the political situation in the country. d) Some succeeded in to stop further land alienation by restraining the Europeans from displacing the Africans to the reserves. For example THA succeeded in stopping the governments plan to relocate the Wada Wida people from Taita hills to Samburu to create room for settlers. e) The played the role of trade Unionism by fighting for the welfare of the workers in the absence of formal trade unions. f) They publicized Africans grievances to the international community. For Example, the role played by Jomo Kenyatta on behalf of KCA. g) They pioneered in the growth of nationalism by forging inter-community relations in the struggle for independence. **EMERGENCE OF INDEPENDENT CHURCHES AND SCHOOLS MOVEMENT** **IN KENYA** This was an expression of African protest against European interference with traditional African economic and political organization. **Reasons why independent churches and schools emerged in Kenya** a) The desire by majority of Africans to retain their cultural values while at the same time converting to Christianity. Many were unhappy with the western influence of Christian missionaries who taught against traditional customs. b) Africans were unhappy with the 3Rs style of education in mission schools which only prepared them for low positions in government or employment on European farms and homes. They desired to be equal to Europeans and Asians. c) Independent schools emerged as a reaction against colonial domination and exploitation in terms of taxation, kipande, forced labour and racial discrimination. d) Africans desired leadership in their own churches instead of being led by European missionaries whom they viewed as agents of colonialism. e) The role played by Africans like John Owalo and Elijah Masinde who claimed to have received divine calls to begin independent churches. f) Some Africans felt dissatisfied with the interpretation of the scriptures. The Holy Spirit Church, for example, broke away on this account. g) Some churches were formed to allow Africans to express their Christianity freely through dancing, singing and drum beating which many mission churches did not accommodate. h) Characteristics of independent churches and schools. **Characteristics of independent churches and schools.** a) All of them accommodated African cultural values. b) Both churches and schools valued Christianity and western education but were against the westernizing influence by missionaries. c) Africans held positions of leadership in the churches and schools. d) Most Churches and schools worked closely with the African political association. **The independent churches movement in Nyanza.** John Owalo is credited for leading in the establishment of independent churches in nyanza. He stared as a Roman Catholic, then joined the Church of Scotland mission (CSM) at Kikuyu before moving to the CMS first in Nairobi, then defected to Maseno. The reason why Owalo suffered from denominational defection is because he was seeking for a mission church that accommodated African cultural values and where Africans could be given a say I terms of leadership and worship. In 1907, Owalo claimed to have received a direct call from God with instructions to begin his own church. Though CMS at Maseno dismissed him as a lunatic, the colonial authority (Nyanza PC John Ainsworth) granted Owalo permission to start his own mission. In 1910, he founded the Nomiya Luo Church, which became the first independent church in Kenya. Owalo proclaimed himself as a prophet equating similar to Jesus. Other independent churches in Nyanza included; 1) Dini ya Roho (Holy Spirit Church) founded among the Luhyia in 1927 as a breakaway from the Friends African Mission. The members claimed to speak in tongues and believed in baptism by the holy spirit, 2) Joroho church founded by Alfayo Odongo Mango in 1932 among the Luo. It was similar to Dini ya Roho. 3) The Christian Universal Evangelical Union founded in 1938 In Siaya by Ismael Noo, a school teacher linked to the Anglican Church at Maseno. He began off as one of the leaders of the revival movement at Maseno, which emphasized salvation by the blood of Jesus and public confession of sin. His movement insisted that men and women should have sexual intercourse since they were saved. His church attracted many women and soon he was accused of infidelity with peoples wives.He officially broke away from the Anglican Church at a convention at Nyabondo in Nyakach to establish the Christian Evangelical Union. The church is currently known as the Christian Evangelical Church, having changed its name in 1965. **The independent churches and schools movement in central Kenya** Due to its proximity to Nairobi, the seat of colonial administration, central Kenya experienced the presence of white settlers more than any other region in Kenya. The schools established by the so many missionary groups in the region only aimed at imparting basic literacy and numeracy skills to African converts. As the evangelized, the \\missionary groups condemned many traditional African practices and values like polygamy, consumption of traditional brews and female circumcision. It is behind this backdrop that independent churches and schools emerged in central Kenya. **Kikuyu Independent schools** Kikuyu elders out of the desire for western education for their children, without necessarily being Europeanized, set up independent schools. In 1913, a Kikuyu elder, Mukunga wa Njehu, donated land at Gaithieko, Kiambu where the first independent school In central kenya was built.In 1925, another school had been built and registered at Githunguri.The independent Schools Movement emerged in the 1920s as a result of the expulsion from mission schools of the children of the supporters of female circumcision. The two bodies that emerged as a consequence were***Kikuyu Independent Schools*** ***Association (KISA) and the Kikuyu Karinga Educational Association (KKEA)*** **The Kikuyu Independent Schools Association** The Body was closely associated with the Independent Pentecostal Church and was predominantly in Muranga, Nyeri and Embu. Following a showdown over female circumcision, the kikuyu elders got permission from the DC to build a prayer House around Gituamba on land donated by two elders, Kagere Gatundu and Gathai Gachohi of Thiru sub-location. Between 1929 and 1932, a school was set up at the church. This success inspired the emergence of similar churches and schools in Mariira, Kahiti and Gakarara in Kandara, Muranga.In 1934, KISA was established to coordinate the efficient running of these schools with its leaders including Daudi Maina Kiragu, Musa Muriithi, Hezekiah Gachui, Peter Gathecha and Johana Njoroge.The Association had the responsibility of establishing more schools and maintaining them as well as mobilizing funds for teacher training programmes. Their activities got the support of the colonial authorities which even permitted establishment of more schools that must be registered at the DOs office.By 1935, KISA had established 34 independent schools with an enrolment of 2,518 pupils. Similar schools emerged in the Rift Valley among the kikuyu squatters. **Challenges encountered by KISA.** a) There were inadequate funds to support the large number of pupils and schools. b) Many teachers were untrained. c) Many of the KISA leaders lacked proper management skills. d) Mission schools fought the efforts of KISA leaders. e) There were disagreements among KISA leaders where some demanded for money for the land they had donated for the schools.The independent churches also suffered from lack of ordained ministers. This problem was solved when KCA invited the Most Reverend William Alexander, the Archbishop of the African Orthodox Church in South Africa in 1935, who established a seminary at Gituamba and ordained Daudi Maina Kiragu, Philip Kiande and Harrison Gachukia Kimanga as Ministers.In 1937 after Archbishop Alexander had left, Daudi Maina Kiragu and Harrison Gachukia Kimanga broke away and formed the African Independent Pentecostal Church which they claimed was independent from external influence.In 1938, KISA named their church the Independent Pentecostal Church. By 1952, at the time of its banning, KISA had 168 schools with an enrolment of 60,000 pupils in central Kenya and rift valley. **Kikuyu Karinga Educational Association** The association emerged out of a split at the Gituamba between the Muranga group and the -Kiambu members who were radical and were more closely associated with KCA. The term Karinga means pure implying unpolluted kikuyu customs and values. KKEA was opposed to all forms of cooperation with either the missionaries or the colonial authority.By 1940, it had established 12 schools in Kiambu and 11 in the rift valley. By 1952, it had established schools at Moshi and Arusha in Tanganyika. It established its own church in 1952(the African Orthodox Church of Kenya), relying on church ministers trained at Gituamba seminary. It was led by Arthur Gathuna and Philip KiandeThe Association was banned in 1952 after declaration of a State of Emergency.In 1939, the Kenya Teachers Training College was established at Githunguri, Kiambu, to train teachers for the independent schools. Mbiyu Koinange was the first principal. It was closed in 1952 alongside other independent schools. **Problems faced by independent churches and schools** a) Poor leadership as many churches and schools were led by people without any management experience. Many of them lacked trained personnel who could run them efficiently. b) They faced a lot of hostility from the colonial government and missionaries who constantly harassed them. c) Ideological differences among their leaders on which name to adopt. There were also many leadership squabbles as all founders wanted to be recognized. d) The schools were forced to follow the official syllabus and become members of the District Education Board. e) The independent churches and schools competed with mission churches and schools for followers with the later declaring war on certain African practices **POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS AND MOVEMENTS AFTER 1945.** ***Factors that hastened political development in Kenya after 1945.*** a) The Acquisition of western education by many Africans by 1945 which enabled them to articulate their grievances more forcefully and to understand political developments outside Kenya. b) The return of the ex-servicemen after the second world war which exposed the myth of the white supremacy making Africans ready to fight them. Moreover, the colonial government failed to reward African ex-soldiers to embitter them more. c) The change of government from Conservative to Labour Party in Britain in 1946 stimulated a new attitude in Britain towards decolonization. Africans in Kenya took advantage of this attitude. d) The granting of independence to India and Pakistan in 1947 aroused great confidence among Africans in Kenya to also clamour for their own independence. e) The rise of Pan-Africanism in Africa after the 1945 Manchester conference contributed to the new demands for political independence in Kenya. f) The formation of the UNO and the pressure it exerted on the European powers to decolonize helped the Kenyans in their course. g) The emergence of United States and the Soviet Union as super powers in the world contributed to the decolonization process. USA was keen to see Britain and France grant independence to their subjects in the world in order to secure new markets. h) The signing of the Atlantic Charter in 1941 by Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt which demanded that when the WWII ended, all subject peoples should enjoy the right to self-determination. i) The costs incurred by the European nations during WW2 made their taxpayers become reluctant to raise any more funds for colonial expenditures. **Characteristics of political parties formed after 1945.** a) They had a national outlook as members were drawn from different ethnic groups b) Their main objectives was to fight for independence c) Educated elites led them d) They had a large membership. e) They demanded for fair taxation for Africans. f) They all demanded for improved conditions for African workers. g) They all demanded for the return of alienated land. **Kenya African Study Union** When Eliud Mathu was nominated to the Legco on 10th October 1944, a number of well educated Africans led by Francis Khamisi agreed to form Kenya African Union (KAU) with the following objectives;. a) To assist Mathu in his new task as the first African nominated to the LEGCO. b) To create a Multi-ethnic political grouping representing the interests and constitutional rights of all Africans effectively. c) To advocate for more constitutional reforms for Africans. d) To demand for better living and working conditions. The interim officials were Harry Thuku (chairman), Francis Khamisi (Secretary) and Albert Owino (treasurer). Other officials were James Gichuru, John Kebaso, Simeon Mulandi, Harry ole Nangurai, S.0. Josiah, F.M. Nganga, Jimmy Jeremiah, J.D. Otiende and S.D. Jakay.Two weeks after its formation, the governor ordered its officials to change its name to the Kenya African Study Union as it was meant to help Mathu in studying African problems.In January 1945, James Gichuru became the president of KASU after Harry Thuku resigned, being unable to cope with radicalism in the union. Under Gichuru, KASU published a newspaper - Sauti ya Mwafrika that concentrated on African grievances and the proposed East African Federation which they opposed. The organization rejected proposals to give more powers to European members in the Executive council. They refused to accept a European dominated government of the East African Federation. Later in 1946 on KASU changed its name to KAU feeling that the former name was inappropriate. **Kenya African Union** Formed in February 1946, the main demands of KAU were; ~ They protested against inadequate African representation in the LEGCO. ~ They protested against the lack of Participation of Africans in the governance of Kenya. They even demanded for Self-government for Africans. ~ They were against the continued existence of the Kipande System and forced labour. ~ They demanded improvement of the African working conditions with better wages equal to what was paid to other races. ~ They demanded an end to Land alienation and racial discrimination. ~ They demanded an end to Imposition of taxes. ~ They demanded compensation of ex-servicemen. ~ They were protesting against Lack of education opportunities for Africans. The return to Kenya by Kenyatta in 1946 marked the beginning of mass nationalism. On 1st June 1947, Kenyatta became president of KAU after Gichuru stepped down for him. W.W.W. Awori was elected vice-president and Ambrose Ofafa and Muchohi Gikonyo were elected treasurer and secretary respectively.Kenyatta travelled widely in Kenya where he urged people to join KAU. After 1947 KAU began to face the problem of a standoff between Radicals like Fred Kubai and Paul Ngei who wanted to use force to acquire independence, and moderates like Kenyatta himself. Radicals who included Bildad Kaggia took over the Nairobi branch of KAU.When the national delegates conference was held in 1951, Jomo Kenyatta retained presidency, J.D. Otiende became secretary General, PAUL Ngei assistant SG and Ole Nangurai Treasurer. Between 1948 and 1950, KAU faced serious financial problems even failing to pay rent for its offices at the IBEA building. **Other problems that faced KAU** a) Kenyatta also appeared too busy to run the affairs of the party as he doubled up as the Principal of Githunguri TTC. b) The party also faced a lot of hostility from the colonial government and the white settlers. c) There were rampant ethnic divisions within the membership of KAU being complicated by the fact that the party appeared to be dominated by one ethnic group, the kikuyu. d) Majority of the African population, who were illiterate, lacked political awareness under could not understand the political efforts required of them. When the Mau Mau movement began, the Nairobi office of Kubai, J.M.Mungai and Kaggia worked closely with it. KAU continued to expand its membership in Kenya with Ramogi Achieng Oneko opening a branch in Kisumu in 1951, Johana Adala and Boaz Muha opened a branch in Maragoli and Muinga Chokwe opened one in Mombasa.In 1952, KAU rallies were banned outside Nairobi after a political meeting in Nyeri, attended by the leader of Mau Mau, Dedan Kimathi, which attracted over 25,000 people thus startling the government. When a state of emergency was declared in 1952, KAU leaders were arrested for being behind Mau Mau. Walter Odede became the acting president, Joseph Murumbi acting secretary and W.W.W.Awori-acting treasurer.The acting official presented a 24-point memoranda to Oliver Lyttelton , secretary of state for colonies when he came to kenya during the emergency period, demanding the release of the Kapenguria six (Jomo Kenyatta, Paul Ngei, Kungu Karumba, Bildad Kaggia, Achieng Oneko and Fred Kubai) Walter Odede, the acting president was late arrested on 9th march 1953 while Murumbi escaped to Bombay, India as KAU was banned on 8th June 1953. **Achievements if KAU** a) Party members especially from the Nairobi branch gave moral and material support to the Mau Mau freedom fighters. b) The party provided guidance and political support to Eliud Mathu, the first African representative to the Legco. c) The party laid the foundation for the growth of the Kenya African National Union that ushered in independence in Kenya. d) Some of the members of the party were active members of Mau Mau. For example, Fred Kubai and Bildad Kaggia. **THE MAU-MAU REBELLION 1951 - 60** Mau-Mau is an abbreviation which stands for Mzungu Arudi Ulaya, Mwafrika Apate Uhuru (meaning let the white man go back to Europe and the Africans regain Independence).Sometimes the movement was referred to as the Land and Freedom Army and the Anake-aForty.Sometime in the late 1940s the General Council of the banned Kikuyu Central Association (KCA) began to make preparations for a campaign of civil disobedience involving all of the Kikuyu in order to protest the land issue. The members of this initiative were bound together through oath. The rituals obliged the oath taker to fight and defend themselves from Europeans.In These oath rituals, There were rumors about cannibalism, ritual zoophilia with goats, sexual orgies, ritual places decorated with intestines and goat eyes, and that oaths included promises to kill, dismember and burn settlers. The oaths were a cultural symbol of the solidarity that bound Kikuyu men, women and children in loyalty together in their opposition to the colonial government. It also instilled courage and unity among people,Nonetheless, the British were scared by the oath, made taking the Mau Mau oath a capital offence. The British also screened Mau Mau suspects and forced them to take a 'cleansing oath', a strange instance of colonialism 'gone native'. **CAUSES OF THE MAU-MAU REBELLION** a) The unemployment of the ex-soldiers who had been promised jobs after the World War II, but instead were made porters on European-estates. Similarly, people were retrenched, traders pushed out to business by Asian retail trade monopoly and European settlers. b) Africans, especially the Kikuyu, wanted their land returned. By 1948, 1.25 million Kikuyu were restricted to 2000 square miles (5,200 km), while 30,000 settlers occupied 12,000 square miles (31,000 km) fertile land. In the reserves Africans suffered from congestion, starvation and diseases like typhoid, cholera. c) It was a reaction against the Kipande system. This was a method of identity cards imposed on Africans to restrict them from unnecessary movements. d) The introduction of racial discrimination in Kenya. The Europeans equated the black colour with low intelligence, uncivilized, barbaric and a backward race. All the best hotels, restaurants, schools, recreational centres and most fertile soils in Kenya were reserved for the whites only. e) Africans were fed up of heavy and harsh taxation by the Europeans. Failure to pay tax was punishable by taking away the land or even imprisonment. So the Africans were forced to go and work under harsh condition and for long hours, yet poorly paid. f) The dominance of the economy by the Asian and white settlers. The Africans were not allowed to take part in meaningful business, were not given positive consideration in awarding jobs. g) They also wanted to be exposed to the social services e.g. education. The white settlers frustrated the African efforts to set up schools even the few educated Africans were not employed in the civil service. h) Africans feared a gradual destruction of their culture by the whites e.g. the missionaries were totally against the circumcision of women among the Kikuyu and the traditional view of twins. i) Africans wanted a fair share in the administration of their country (Parliament). For a long time many Kenyans were excluded from decision making and political participation the whites and Asians in the Legislative Council did not represent their interests. j) The return of Jomo Kenyatta in the 1950s after his studies in Europe, he came back with a wider vision to convince the Kenyans about their rights and they therefore united and rebelled. k) The role of educated Kenyans who aware of their rights as citizens and in turn educated the rest about their place in society. This prompted them to rebel against the whites. l) The colonial policy discouraged Africans from growing cash crops like coffee, tea, cotton, pyrethrum for fear of competition with the Africans who would grow rich and challenge the colonial administration. m) Forced labour. Africans were obliged by colonial law to offer labour on the plantation this was to be done forcefully without offering any payments. This kind of new slavery inspired the occurrence of the Mau Mau rebellion. n) Influence of the Second World War. Many Kenyans who participated in this war discovered the weakness of the white man and the loopholes in their systems of administration. These included General China, Dedan Kimathi among others who also acquired good military skills. o) The move was a quest for constitutional reforms in Kenya. African political parties had been banned with impunity and their leaders like Harry Thuku, Muindi Mbingu and Mwambichi detained p) They were protesting colonial brutality especially the mistreatment of Africans on the white farms. Many Africans were killed at the slightest excuse like in the case of the upland Bacon **Factory Massacre in September 1947.** **The course of the uprising.** On May 1, 1949, six trade unions formed the East African Trades Union Congress (EATUC). The union leaders joined with the \"Forty Group,\" which was a roughly cohesive group mostly composed of African ex-servicemen conscripted in 1940 when attempts for a union members strike failed on May 16th 1950. In June 1951, the urban KAU radicals (Mutonyi, Isaac Gathanga, Bildad Kaggia, Paul Ngei and Fred Kubai) created a secret Central Committee (Muhimu) to coordinate the oath campaign throughout Nairobi and outside Nairobi. It also formed armed squads to enforce its policies, protect members from the police, and kill informers and collaborators. Different leaders led the Land and Freedom Armies. Three of the dominant Active Wing leaders were Stanley Mathenge; Waruhiu Itote (known as General China), leader of Mount Kenya wing; and Dedan Kimathi, leader of Aberdare forest wing. Others were General Ndungu Gicheru, General Mwariama and General Matenjagwo (one who never shaves). Other armies were in Nairobi, Kiambu, Fort Hall and Rift Valley. They were mostly equipped with spears, simis (short swords), kibokos (rhino hide whips) and pangas (machete). Some made their own gunswhile others employed armed robberies on police stations and isolated settler homes. African and Asian merchants funded the movement by paying protection fees.On 1st of October 1952, Mau Mau assassinated a Nairobi councillor, Tom Mbotela, who was a government loyalist. On 3 October, Mau Mau claimed their first European victim when they stabbed a woman to death near her home in Thika. A week later, on 9 October, Senior Chief Waruhiu, a strong supporter of the British presence in Kenya, had been shot to death in broad daylight in his car. His assassination gave Governor Baring the final impetus to declare a State of Emergency on 20 October 1952. Early the next morning, the British carried out a mass-arrest of 180 alleged Mau Mau leaders and subjected six of them to a trial (the Kapenguria Six); the real militants, such as Dedan Kimathi and Stanley Mathenge, fled to the forests. While much of the senior leadership of the Nairobi Central Committee was arrested, Local rebel committees took uncoordinated decisions to strike attack settlers and there was an abrupt rise in the destruction of European property and attacks on African loyalists. On January 24, 1953, Mau Mau, possibly former servants, killed settlers Mr. and Mrs. Ruck, as well as their six-year-old son, on their farm with pangas. White settlers reacted by dismissing all of their Kikuyu servants because of the fear that they could be Mau Mau sympathizers. Naivasha Police Station was raided in March 1953.Over 1800 loyalist Kikuyu were killed. Operating from the safety of the forests, the Mau Mau mainly attacked isolated farms at night, but occasionally also households in suburbs of Nairobi.In May 1953, the Kikuyu Home Guard became an official part of the security forces. It became the significant part of the anti-Mau Mau effort. On March25March 26, 1953, nearly 1000 rebels attacked the loyalist village of Lari, where about 170 non- combatants were hacked or burnt to death. Most of them were the wives and children of Kikuyu Home Guards serving elsewhere. In the weeks that followed, some suspected rebels were summarily executed by police and loyalist Home Guards.In June 1953 General Sir George Erskine arrived and took up the p ost of Director of Operations. A military brought in 20,000 troops who were used aggressively. The Kikuyu reserves were designated \"Special Areas,\" where anyone failing to halt when challenged could be shot. The colonial government created so-called pseudo-gangs composed of de-oathed and turned ex-Mau Mau and allied Africans, sometimes headed by white officers. They infiltrated Mau Mau ranks and made search and destroy missions. By September 1953, the British knew the leading personalities in Mau Mau, the capture of General China in January the following year provided a massive intelligence boost on the forest fighters. On April 24, 1954, the Army launched \"Operation Anvil\" in Nairobi, the forest fighters' source of supplies, money and recruits, and the city was put under military control. By the end of 1954 there were 77,000 Kikuyu in concentration camps mainly deported from Nairobi. In June 1954, a policy of compulsory villagization was started in the reserves to allow more effective control and surveillance of civilians and to better protect pro- government collaborators. When the program reached completion in October 1955, 1,077,500 Kikuyu had been concentrated into 854 \"villages.\"The last Mau Mau leader, Dedan Kimathi, was captured by Kikuyu Tribal Police on 21 October 1956 in Nyeri with 13 remaining guerrillas, and was subsequently hanged in early 1957. His capture marked the effective end of the Uprising, though some Mau Mau remained in the forests until 1963 and the Emergency remained in effect until January 1960. **Mau war by other communities** ~ In April 1953, a Kamba Central Committee was formed by Kamba rebels who were all railway men and effectively controlled the railway workforce. They organized acts of sabotage against the railway lines during the emergency. ~ Rebel Maasai bands became active in Narok district before being crushed by soldiers and police who were tasked with preventing a further spread of the rebellion. ~ In Maragoli, Chief Mukudi of Bunyore was associated with the movement. ~ Other communities involved were the Kipsigis section of kalenjin, Luo etc. **Factors, which facilitated the MAU MAU uprising.** a) Oathing, which united the people and gave them the courage, determination and momentum for the rebellion course. b) The use of guerilla tactics ensured less loss of life and prolonged war. It made it difficult for the British to suppress the rebellion. c) The support to the fighters from the civilians who supplied food, water, spying etc. d) Strong leadership for the movement by people like Dedan Kimathi, Waruhiu Itote (General China), Stanley Mathenge and General Matenjagwo. e) The deep resentment of the people against the Europeans gave them the reason to continue fighting. f) The natural forests of Mount Kenya and Aberdere ranges provided good hideouts for the fighters. g) The fighters had enough weapons. They accessed weapons like the homemade guns, swords and Machette to add to what they were able to seize from the settlers. **Problems that faced Mau Mau Rebellion** a) The fighters lacked transport and communication facilities. b) They were faced with adverse weather conditions, operating in the Aberdere and MountKenya Forests that were extremely cold. c) In the Wild environment, they were frequently attacked by wild animals. d) They lacked proper fighting equipment when compared to the weaponry of the Europeans. e) They faced brutality from the British forces when they were retaliating. f) There were constant divisions and disagreements among the fighters. g) The movement suffered from the infiltration of spies in form of pseudo-gangs who exposed their military strategies. h) The movement suffered from lack of proper coordination due to the use of forest hideouts and mountain terrain by the guerrillas which prevented them from developing a wellcoordinated strategy. i) The arrest of the movements key leaders General China and Dedan Kimathi dealt in a devastating blow. j) The movement suffered from a disjointed recruitment process with some fighters being coerced into membership which put their loyalty to doubt. **Results of the Mau Mau uprising** a) Many people died as a result of the war. The official number of Kenyans killed was estimated at 11,503 by British sources. More than 1,800 Kenyan civilians and 32 British civilians were killed by Mau Mau militants. b) The war attracted the attention of British citizens and international community to the crimes committed by the colonial administration. British forces committed widespread human rights abuses, including rape, torture and castration. c) Many Africans were arrested and detained while thousands were seriously injured during the interrogations. For example, 11 of the 88 detainees at Hola Camp lost their lives as the rest were seriously injured in brutality incident. d) The war speeded up the march to independence especially when the realty of the inability of the colonial administration to govern kenya dawned on the British government e) The uprising led to destruction of property. Villages, houses and crops were burned down. f) The war led to the relocation of the Agikuyu, Ameru and Aembu communities from Nairobi region as their jobs were taken by people from western and rift valley who did not participate in the rebellion. g) The uprising led to the reduction of the influence of the settlers in Kenya as it was realized that it was the enormous settler influence that was responsible for the insurgence. h) The war forced the colonial authority to apply tough measures to restrict the activities of African political parties such as KAU that was banned in 1952. i) The war led to the beginning of a program of villagization and land reform consolidated the land holdings of the Kikuyu, thereby creating emergency kikuyu villages in various parts of the country. j) It led to the declaration of a state of emergence in Kenya on 20th October 1952. k) The war bred bitterness among members of Agikuyu Aembu and Ameru where some were government loyalists while others were Mau Mau supporters. l) The war resulted into the land reform measures that came to be known as the SwynnertonPlan of 1954 that sparked off the resettlement of Africans in the countryside. **Swynnerton Plan** Refusing to give more land to the Kikuyu in the reserves, which could have been seen as a concession to Mau Mau, Baring turned instead in 1953 to Roger Swynnerton, Kenya's assistant director of agriculture. The primary goal of the Swynnerton Plan was the creation of family holdings large enough to keep families self-sufficient in food and to enable them to practice alternate husbandry, which would generate a cash income. **Recommendations of the Swynnerton Plan of 1954** a) The survey and enclosure of African land in high potential areas. b) The processing of title deeds and giving out title deeds to the owners. Only progressive African farmers would get title deeds and benefit from the land reforms. c) A few Africans were allowed to practice new agricultural methods and obtain credit as well as title deeds. d) A few African s were allowed to practice individual land ownership. e) A few progressive African farmers were allowed to grow cash crops. Kenya African National Union During the emergency period, (From October 1952 to December 1959) African participation in the political process increased rapidly. The Kenya African National Union (KANU) was formed after the First Lancaster House Conference of January 1960 resolved that nationwide political parties be formed in Kenya as a step towards decolonization.On 27th march 1960, at a meeting at Kirigiti, Kiambu convened by ex- KAU strongmen, James Gichuru and Oginga Odinga, KAU merged with Kenya Independent Movement and the People's Congress Party to form KANU. The colonial government declined to register KANU with Kenyatta as president since he was still in detention.In May 1960 James Gichuru took the presidency with Odinga as his deputy. Tom Mboya became the secretary General and Arthur Ochwada his assistant. Ronald Ngala and Daniel Moi were elected treasurer and assistant treasurer respectively in absentia as they were attending a commonwealth parliamentary Association meeting in London.In the partys constitution, drafted by Mwai Kibaki and Tom Mboya, the following were the objectives; a) To attain political independence for Africans inn Kenya. b) To achieve national unity through a unitary national constitution under one central government. c) To create a society based on African socialism. d) To eradicate poverty, ignorance and disease. e) To get back African land. f) To have all political detainees released. g) To unite with liberation movements in other countries in a Africa in order to end imperialism and colonialism in the continent. h) To encourage good neighbourliness in the East African Region. When Kenyata was released, he took over leadership of the party. During the independence elections in may 1963, KANU won 73 seats against KADUs 31 and African Peoples Partys 8 . Jomo Kenyatta became the Prime Minister on 1st June 1963. **Achievements of KANU in the struggle for independence.** a) KANU mobilized Africans in Kenya and united them in the struggle for independence. b) Through its numerous nationwide meetings, it provided political education to the Africans in Kenya. c) It participated in the independence constitution making process by being part of the Lancaster House conference of 1962. **Challenges faced by KANU in the struggle for independence.** a) There was disunity among its members with some suspicious of the big communities who had taken up key leadership positions b) The party faced the problem of lacking adequate funds to carry out its countrywide campaigns for Independence. c) The KANU leaders suffered from ideological differences with some opposing the unitary system of government as advocated by the partys constitution. d) Some members were dissatisfied with the way party affairs were being run especially the elections which they felt were not fair. **Kenya African Democratic Union (KADU)** KADU was formed in 1960 as an alliance of minority ethnic political groups to protect the rights /interests of the minority groups against possible domination of KANU /majority groups.Its senior leaders included Ronald Ngala (president), Masinde Muliro (Vice president), Daniel Arap Moi (chairman), Martin Shikuku (secretary General) and Justus ole Tipis (treasurer).KADU leaders advocated for a federal system while KANU group were advocating for a unitary system of government.When KANU refused to form government while Kenyatta was still in detention, KADU formed the first coalition government with the Europeans and Asians who belonged to Michael Blundells New Kenya Party after garnering 11 seats in the May 1961 elections.In 1962, KADU and KANU formed a coalition government while awaiting the 1963 elections.Following the defeat by KANU in the May 1963 elections, it became the major opposition party until 1964 when it was disbanded after persuasions from Jomo Kenyatta. **Roles played by the Kenya African Democratic Union in the struggle for** **independence.** a) It united the smaller communities in Kenya. E.g the Kalenjin, Luhyia, Maasai and coastal communities. b) It educated/ mobilized Africans against the colonial domination. c) It pressed for the release of Jomo Kenyatta while hopping that he would eventually join on their side. d) It participated in drawing up the independence constitution in the second Lancaster House conference. e) As an opposition party though for a short time, it helped to provide checks on the KANU government. **Challenges faced by KADU** a) There were suspicions of dominance of the party by some communities. b) The party faced the problem of lacking adequate funds to carry out its countrywide campaigns for Independence. c) Wrangles between senior officials of the party often undermined the partys operations. d) Illiteracy among the majority of the members left the top leaders with too much responsibility over party affairs. e) The party was prone to manipulations by the colonial authority in its operations. f) The party members were faced with a lot of pressure from KANU to decamp.**African** **Peoples Party** The party also emerged after the 1962 Lancaster House conference, founded by Paul Ngei, one of the radical members of KAUs Nairobi branch. Paul Ngei had similar fears just like the founders of KADU that the Akamba interests would not be catered for in the proposed government arrangement that favoured KANU as well as KADU.The party was formed in February 1962. After Kenya became a republic in 1964, APP decamped from the opposition to join KANU. **The trade-union movement.** The early trade Unions in Kenya were formed along racial lines though all form them aimed at addressing labour problems that faced workers. The first trade union in Kenya was the Indian Trade Union formed in 1914 in mombasa. Upto 1914, there existed no African trade union in Kenya because of the following reasons; a) Artisans and farm labourers were not allowed to join or form associations since it was feared they would organize sudden and unofficial strikes. b) Majority of the Kenyans were illiterate and lacked the knowledge to run workers unions. c) The migrant labour system militated against the establishment of such unions. d) The colonial government fought attempts by Africans to form workers organizations. For this reason, in the 1920s, African political organizations doubled up as also defenders of workers welfare.In 1922, Asian workers in the railway department formed the Railway Artisans Union but its officials were sacked by the government causing it to wind up in 1923.in 1930s, a Trade Union Committee was formed in Mombasa by Masons and labourers with R.M. S hah as its president.In 1934, the Indian Trade Union became the Kenya Indian Labour Trade Union (KLTU ) whose membership was from other towns in Kenya.By 1935, the union began admitting members from other races necessitating it to change its name to Labour Trade Union of Kenya (LTUK). When it expanded its membership to the rest of East Africa in 1939, it became known as the Labour Trade Union of East Africa (LTUEA) on 14thJanuary 1947, over 15,000 striking African workers of Mombasa formed the African Workers Union (AWU). Muhamed Kibwana was elected president, Mwangi Macharia-secretary, Mbaruk Kenze-treasurer and Chege Kibachia executive officer. **The Unions demands included;** a) A salary increase due to the high cost of living. b) Implementation of the policy of equal pay for equal work regardless of race. c) Respect for African workers wherever they were employed. d) Payment of sufficient allowances to cater for African wives and children. e) Elimination of the deliberate strategies applied by employers to keep Africans in their places of work all the time.The Union changed its name to African Workers Federation on 24th January 1947 at the advice of Eliud Mathu who also convinced them to end the strike. Meanwhile a trade dispute tribunal led by Mr. Justice Thacker was set up to look into the workers grievances.The AWF became very popular to all workers in Kenya due to the success of the strike. However its leaders were either repatriated from Mombasa to their reserve areas or as was the case of Kibachia, arrested and detained in Baringo district.Achievements of AWF. a) It mobilized workers from different communities to come together and fight for better wages. b) It provided education to the workers about their rights. c) It introduced the concept of collective bargaining among workers in Kenya. d) It fought for better living and working conditions for workers. e) It advocated for better allowances for African workers wives and children, a factor which resulted in better wages and salaries for workers. f) Its activities made the colonial government change its attitude towards labour unions and start to give attention to workers grievances. g) It succeeded in exposing the Kenyan workers grievances to the international community as its strike was internationally publicized. **Kenya Federation of Labour** Following the enactment of the Trade Unions Ordinance in 1952, various small African trade unions (Kenya Local Government Workers Union, Domestic and Hotel Workers Union and East AFRICAN Federation of Building and Construction) united to form the Kenya Federation of Registered Trade Unions (KFRTU). Its officials included Mwichigi Karanja (president), Aggrey Mwinya(secretary general), S. Ondiege, Elikana Okusimba, Silas Okeya, David Jomo, S. Osore, James Wainaina and Dishon Sambili. Among the demands of KFRTU were the following; ~ Increase in African wages. ~ Improvement of the living conditions and poor housing for its workers ~ Protest against the arrest and detention of union officials. ~ Protest against forceful evacuation of the Aembu, Ameru and Agikuyu from Nairobi In 1953. ~ Protest against increase in the price of tea and bread in 1955 ~ Protest against the continuity of the state of emergency. In 1953, Tom Mboyas Kenya Local Government workers Union (KLGWU) joined KFRTU. The following were elected officials in the 1953 elections. David Njomo- prrsident, Stephen Obwaka- vice president, Tom Mboya- general secretary, G.W.Owuor- assistant SG, Daniel Ngethetreasurer and John Opiyo- ass treasurer. In 1955, it changed its name to the Kenya Federation of Labour (KFL) representing 35,000 members. Due to Tom Mboyas efforts KFL was affiliated to the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU). **Achievements of KFL.** a) It kept the spirit of African nationalism alive during the emergency period when political associations had been banned. b) It secured international support through its affiliation to ICFTU for the cause of African nationalism. c) It educated Africans on their rights as workers. d) It helped to improve the living conditions of African workers securing for them a major salary increment in 1956 e) It prepared some African nationalists for leadership roles in the struggle for independence. For example, martin Shikuku and Tom Mboya. **Role of trade union movement in the struggle for independence in Kenya** a) Trade Unions mobilized workers to strike against colonial government. b) They Motivated workers to sustain the struggle for their political rights/self governance c) They provided national political parties with funds required for their operation. d) Trade union leaders became prominent leaders of political associations that fought for independence. e) They introduced the concept of collective bargaining for workers in Kenya. f) The unions promoted regional cooperation in east Africa. g) They improved working conditions of the Africans through their welfare duties. h) They intensified the spirit of nationalism after ban on political parties. i) They provided a training ground for nationalist leaders e.g. Thomas Mboya j) Educated Africans on their rights **Problems faced by trade unions during the colonial period** a) There was fear of victimization and harassment from the colonial authorities especially in the pioneer years. b) The migrant nature of African workforce paused a challenge to their membership. c) Ignorance of the African people about trade unionism and its role. d) Poor leadership which affected the running of pioneer trade unions. e) Shortage of funds since they relied on meager contributions from the poorly paid workers. f) Mismanagement of funds by the officials due to inexperience or corruption. g) Ethnicity, which had a hand in the choice of leaders for the unions. h) Constant wrangles among the leaders of the unions. **ROLE OF WOMEN IN THE STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE** Key women contributors in the struggle for independence.. 1. Mekatilili WA Menza of Giriama who mobilized and administered oaths to the kaya elders to cause the Agiriama resistance 2. Moraa, a Kitutu, prophetess of Gusii who was instrumental in the Gusii resistance. 3. Mary Muthoni Nyanjiru, famously remembered for inciting men to riot when Harry Thuku had been arrested in Nairobi in March 1922 4. Syotune wa Kithuke, a Kamba prophetess who used the kilumi dance in 1911 to mobilize the Akamba to protest against British colonialism. role played by women in the struggle for independence. a) The women acted as spies to the Mau Mau fighters in Nairobi and other urban centres. They supplied arms to fighters. b) They contributed to the establishment of independent churches and schools. For example, Legio Maria was co-founded by a Woman, Aoko, in western Kenya. c) They provided food to the fighters in the bushes. d) In central Kenya, they composed songs and dances, which ridiculed colonial chiefs and other agents of the colonial system. E.g Muthirigu. e) They, looked after families, as the men were busy fighting in bushes. f) In the 1930s, some section of the agikuyu women formed the Mumbi Central Association, feeling that KCA was not recognizing their contribution. g) The hid the fighters in houses. h) They participated in the oathing ceremonies, some acting as chief oathing administrators. i) Some participated actively in the freedom wars and were even killed e.g. Marshal Muthoni, Elizabeth Gachika etc. j) They participated in demonstrations and meetings to fight colonialists. k) They joined the MAU MAU fighters in the forest, with the main role of organizing and coordinating the rural network. They Supplied information to their husbands in the bush. l) They smuggled arms from the whites to the fighters. m) They led and inspired the resistance through their prophecy and encouragement e.g. Moraa and Mekatilili. n) In 1960, a woman, Priscilla Abwao, took part in the Lancaster House Conference. London, to prepare the independence constitution. **Role of women in the Mau Mau movement.** a) Some women were fully-fledged warriors fighting alongside men. 'Field Marshall' Muthoni went to fight alongside famous warriors of the forest like Dedan Kimathi Waciuri. b) The women in the camps made sure that the family continued intact through all of the while their men were out fighting. They would weed and grow food for family use. c) While men were in the forests, Mau Mau women continued to educate their children to be the future leaders of their government. Women would collect money and smuggle the brightest children out of Kenya to study overseas through Sudan, Ethiopia and Egypt. d) Many women sought support for Mau Mau internationally. E.g, Mama Sarah Sarai, an ally of Kenyattas, when out of the country would get people to write in support of Mau Mau. e) Some women offered their property for use by mau mau. In Nairobi, Mama Josephine Muthoni offered her cars to be used for Mau Mau activities. Mama Elizabeth Waruirus house in Pangani which became a Mau Mau meeting place. f) Women were first class spies and informers. They supplied information to the forest forces. g) Women supplied guns, would do anything to get them. Sometimes they killed for them. h) Women had primary responsibility for the organization and maintenance of the supply lines. Operating from villages, thousands of women acted as go -betweens and carriers of food and firearms, and generally provided a system of intelligence. i) Women composed songs like the Kanyegenuri, to commemorate their deeds, like the bravery of Mary Nyanjiru. Years later the song became the Mau Mau anthem of resistance j) They also recruited for Mau Mau fighters. k) They officiated at and participated in oathing ceremonies. Some like Waithera allowed themselves to be subjected to unnatural sexual acts for the sake of the movement. l) In forest camps, women would serve male leaders as Kabatuni (a small platoon to be commanded by the man), doing minor military duties like cleaning guns as well as seeing to the other needs like meeting his sexual needs. m) Some women were co-opted in the political Arena in the mau mau duo-sex councils. For example Muthoni Ngatha - even rose to the senior position of Field Marshal. In June 1953 Wagiri Njoroge was crowned as the Queen of Mau Mau and ruled for 7 months. n) Women also contributed the services of their children who served as errand boys and girls and informers. o) Women were allowed to flirt with \"enemies\" to gather vital information, weapons and other resources. For example, in Gakenia's village in Nanyuki, four girls lured four loyalist African soldiers to Kaarage Forest where the soldiers were killed and their rifles taken. p) Some women like Wanjiru were appointed judges in Nakuru's Mau Mau Courts which passed sentences on anti-Mau Mau crimes. These illustrated by the emergence of a small number of women who acted as executioners. **Problems caused by presence of women in forests during mau mau wars** a) Some women could not withstand the harsh forest conditions of torrential rains and bitter cold and constantly fell sick b) Many women could not defend themselves against enemies and were therefore a burden to men. c) Women would be extra mouths to feed, but would do very little useful things in return. d) Occasionally, women could cause tension and conflict among male guerillas as the men competed for sexual favours from the small number of women. **CONSTITUTIONAL CHANGES LEADING TO INDEPENDENCE.** **African representation to the Legco.** In 1944, Eliud Mathu, a former teacher at Alliance School, the first African was appointed to the LegCo. KAUs demand for more representation in 1946 caused the appointment of Benaiah Ohanga as the second African to the LegCo. By 1948, there were four Africans in the LegCo compared to 11 Europeans, 5 Asians and 2 Arabs. Various commission reports made significant pointers to the fact that the British government had realized the need to involve Africans in the administration and need to reduce settler influence. For example; ***1) The Report of the East African Royal Commission of 1955 proposed;*** ~ An end of racial segregation. ~ Increased involvement of Africans in the colonial administration ~ Opening of the Kenya Highlands to all races. ***2) The Swynnerton Plan of 1954 proposed the consolidation and registration of*** African land with a view to having better land management. ***3) The report on African wages and the Lidbury Commission on Civil Service*** recommended better pay for African workers. **The Lyttelton Constitution** In 1954, the British secretary for colonies visited Kenya in the wake of the Mau Mau Uprising and made the following constitutional proposals; a) A multi- racial Council of Ministers to replace the executive council, which would include one African (B.A. Ohanga, minister for community development and African affairs), two Asians and three Europeans. For the first time, Africans were represented with members with executive powers. b) Lifting the ban on African political Associations. This was done in 1955 though only Africans were allowed to form local (district based) political organizations. Tom Mboya formed the Nairobi Peoples convention Party while D. Mwanyumba formed the Taita African Democratic Union. John Kebaso formed the Abagusii Association, Argwings Kodhek formed the Kenya National Congress and John Keen the Maasai Front. c) Africans were able to take part in elections of 1957. /it proposed multi-racial elections. However, other than race-pegged rules for participation in the elections, voting qualification for Africans were based on income, property and education d) Proposed direct representation of Africans in the LEGCO. In march 1957, the African elections to the Legco were held and Tom Mboya(Nairobi), Masinde Muliro( Northern Nyanza), Oginga Odinga(Central Nyanza), Lawrence Ogunda(south Nyanza), Ronald Ngala( Coast ), Daniel Arap Moi( Rift Valley), James Miumi(Ukambani) and Bernard Mate (central)were elected. The elected Africans formed the African Elected Members Organization (AEMO) with Odinga as chairman and Mboya as secretary. **Demands of AEMO after formation** a) They contested the fewer African positions in the LegCo by condemning the Lyttelton constitution. While elected members were 29, nominated members were 30, majority of who were Europeans. b) They protested the rigid voter qualification requirements imposed on Africans and demanded that every African of 21 years and above be allowed to vote, regardless of education or income. c) They demanded that registration of voters be done on a common roll. d) They called for the end of a State of Emergency. **Role played by AEMO in the struggle for independence up to 1963.** a) They formed pressure groups to demand for greater political rights for Africans. e.g., formation of AEMO. b) They formed the core team, which pressurized for independence. c) They made known the grievances of Africans in International Fora. d) They networked with other African nationalists elsewhere e.g. in Ghana and Nigeria to hasten achievement of independence in Kenya. e) They fought for the release of detained nationalists e.g. Kenyatta. f) They formed he national political parties e.g. KANU and KADU, which led the country to independence. g) They educated and created awareness among the masses about the nationalists struggle. h) They took part in the formulation of the independence constitution. **The Lennox-Boyd Constitution.** In 1958, Sir Allan Lennox- Boyd, who had succeeded Oliver Lyttelton as secretary State for Colonies visited Kenya and made the following constitutional proposals; a) An increase by six LegCo Seats for Africans to bring their total representation to 14 seats. b) A special membership in the LegCo, with four members from each race, who were to elected by other members of the LegCo. c) An increase of the number of African ministers to two. AEMO members rejected the Lennox-Boyd proposals saying they still favoured white monopoly in the colony especially the specially elected membership to LegCo. AEMO also called for the unconditional release of Jomo Kenyatta. They even boycotted the Legco from 1958 to 1959 when a new constitutional conference was promised. Acted of Betrayal became evident among Africans when Musa Amalemba and Wanyutu Waweru accepted the special seats appointment and even Amalemba went ahead to appointed the second African Minister for Housing in 1958.Other developments in 1959 included; ~ The White moderates led by Michael Blundell (who resigned as minister of agriculture) formed the New Party of Kenya (NPK). He was backed by 46 non -African members of the LegCo for his ideas of multi-racialism. ~ The white extremists led by Captain Briggs formed the United Party (UP) demanding for the abolishing of the LegCo and replacing it with regional assemblies. This was aimed at preserving the white highlands as one regional assembly for European benefits. ~ Increased divisions on AEMO between radicals and moderates .Ngala, Moi, Mate, Towett and Nyagah resigned from AEMO to form the Kenya National Party (KNP) advocating multi-racialism. This party was interestingly joined by all Arab and Asian members. ~ The radicals led by Mboya, Odinga and Gikonyo Kiano formed the Kenya Independent Movement (KIM) that was exclusively for African membership. They demanded convening of a full constitutional conference to discuss Kenyas future and release of Jomo Kenyatta. **The Lancaster House Conferences** The Conferences were called to iron out the differences that arose out of the fact that both radical Europeans and AEMO members opposed multi-racialism. **The First Lancaster House Conference (1960**) The conference was convened by Ian MacLeod, the secretary of state for colonies. it was attended by all members of the LegCo.. The African team was led by Ronald Ngala and Tom Mboya was the secretary. The conference came up with the following compromise decisions; a) The 12 elective seats In the LegCo would remain intact. b) There were to 33 open seats in the LegCo, which were to be vied for on a common roll. c) Another 20 seats would be reserved 10 of these for Europeans, 8 for Asians and 2 for Arabs. d) The composition of the Council of Ministers was to be altered to incorporate 4 Africans, 3 Europeans and 1 Asian. e) The conference authorized the formation of countrywide political parties for Africans. KANU and KANU were formed.The Lancaster conference however failed to entirely please both Africans and the settlers. Some settlers, finding the new turn events so tough began to sell their property and leave Kenya. Africans though feeling that they had not been given a responsive government, accepted ministerial positions as follows; a) Ronald Ngala- Minister for Labour, Social Security and Adult Education. b) Julius Gikonyo Kiano- Minister for Commerce and Industry. c) Musa Amalemba- Minister for Housing, Common Services, Probation and Approved Schools. d) James Nzaui Miumi- Minister for Health and Welfare. Out of fear of political domination by the big tribes the following new alliances were formed; a) The Kalenjin Political Alliance of Taita Towett. b) The Coast African Political Union of Ronald Ngala. c) The Kenya African Peoples Party of Masinde Muliro. In the 1961 elections KANU won but refused to form government demanding release of Kenyatta. KADU was invited by the governor, Patrick Renson to form a coalition government with Europeans and Asians. When Kenyatta came on 21st August 1961, Kariuki Njiiri offered his Muranga seat to Kenyatta to enable him join LegCo. **The second Lancaster conference (1962)** The main aim of this conference, called by the then secretary for colonies, Reginald Maulding was to the independence constitution acceptable to the two main parties KADU and KANU. It also aimed at reconciling the differences between the two parties. KANU delegation was led by Jomo Kenyatta while Ngala led the KADU group. KANU conceded many KADU grounds to enable success of the negotiations. **Main provisions of the independence constitution of Kenya** a) The independence constitution provided for a regional/majimbo government with each region having a regional assembly and p resident. b) It also provided for a bicameral parliament consisting of the senate and the house of representatives/upper house and lower house. c) The constitution stipulated that the Prime Minister was to be head of Government and Queen the Head of State, represented by the Governor General. d) The constitution recommended a multiparty system of government and the party with the majority of seats forming the government. e) It contained the Bill of Rights, which protected the individuals rights. In the elections of 1963, KANU won with 73 seats against KADUs 31, APPs 8. Jomo Kenyatta became the first Prime Minister on 1st June 1963.On 12 December, Kenya attained full independence. On 12th December 1964, Kenya became a republic with Kenyatta becoming an executive president. **EMERGENCE AND GROWTH OF NATIONALISM IN AFRICA** **Factors for the rise of nationalism in Africa** a) The exposure of Africans to severe economic exploitation during the colonial period. For example land alienation in the Kenya Highlands, in southern Rhodesian, Algeria and South Africa which was accompanied with forced labour where the labourers faced mistreatment. b) Africans were fed up of heavy and harsh taxation by the Europeans. They were exposed to heavy taxation, ranging from hut tax to breast tax in Belgian Congo. c) Africans were fed up with the gradual destruction of their culture by the whites. Missionaries totally dismissed the age-old African traditions as being barbaric. This explains why independent schools and churches sprung up in central Kenya. d) The introduction of racial discrimination to go hand in hand with colonialism. All the best social amenities in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Kenya were reserved for the whites. The Europeans equated the black colour with low intelligence, uncivilized and a backward race. e) Africans resented colonialism because it interfered with their political institutions. The colonial rulers disregarded traditional rulers, appointing their own puppets in their place. f) The Acquisition of western education by many Africans by 1945 enabled them to articulate their grievances more forcefully and to understand political developments outside Africa. g) The return of the ex-servicemen after the second world war which exposed the myth of the white supremacy making Africans ready to fight them. Moreover, the colonial government failed to reward African ex-soldiers to embitter them more. h) The change of government from Conservative to Labour Party in Britain in 1946 stimulated a new attitude in Britain towards decolonization. This motivated African nationalists. i) The rise of nationalism in Asia, culminating into the granting of independence to India and Pakistan in 1947 aroused great confidence among Africans who worked closely with Asian nationalists like Jawaharlal Nehru, the India Prime Minister. j) The rise of Pan-Africanism in Africa after the 1945 Manchester conference contributed to the new demands for political independence in Africa Many African lites attended the conference which served as a source of awakening. k) The formation of the UNO and the pressure it exerted on the European powers to decolonize helped the Africans in their course. l) The emergence of United States and the Soviet Union as super powers in the world contributed to the decolonization process. USA was keen to see Britain and France grant independence to their subjects in the world in order to secure new markets. m) The signing of the Atlantic Charter in 1941 by Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt which demanded that when the WWII ended, all subject peoples should enjoy the right to self-determination. **NATIONALISM IN GHANA** The British annexed Gold Coast in 1874 after quelling a stiff resistance by the Asante. In response to the British imperialism, the Fonte Confederation was initiated in 1868, marking the birth of African Nationalism in Ghana. In 1897, the Aborigines Rights Protection Society was formed to guard against the alienation of African land.In the 1930s, African elites like J.B. Danquah launched the Gold Coast Youth Conference in order to awaken the youth to the economic and social needs of the country.Their efforts bore fruits because in 1946, governor Burns embarked on constitutional reforms leading to increased African representation in the LegCo. (Of the 18 slots given to Africans in the LegCo, 13 were to drawn from among the chiefs while 5 were to be popularly elected). The elites formed the United Gold Coast Convention (UGCC) and invited Kwame Nkrumah, a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, to come and lead it since most of them were professionals lacking time for political commitment. Nkrumah appeared to have more political experience having participated in the 1945 Manchester conference. **Factors for the growth of nationalism in Ghana** a) The early Introduction of cocoa growing led to adoption of money economy in Ghana ahead of other countries. This enabled faster social and economic transformation of the people. b) The colonial governments attempt to tamper with cocoa growing by ordering cutting of coca trees hurt people to the level of developing nationalistic feelings against the British. c) Ghana was one of the first countries in Africa to receive western education from the missionaries. There was a large class of elites with western university education accompanied with leadership skills to spearhead nationalism their country. d) The existence of ex-servicemen in Ghana also played an important role in the campaign for independence. e) The granting of trading licences by the government selectively to European traders while deliberately denying then Africans. f) Ghana had comparatively better developed transport and communication system. Also being a small country, movement of information, ideas and people was easy, quick and efficient. This facilitated nationalist activities. g) The charismatic and strong leadership provided by Kwame Nkrumah brought cohesiveness among people of Ghana. He formed the CPP party, which became the symbol of struggle for the oppressed people of Ghana. h) The participation of Kwame Nkrumah in the Pan-African Manchester conference in 1945, which championed the right of countries to self-determination, made the country take the lead in Africa in championing this right. i) The people of Ghana were more exposed to international affairs than other countries in Africa due to its location in a region, which had the earliest contacts with European traders and colonizers. The peak of nationalism in Ghana.On 28th February 1948, the ex-soldiers led the Accra riots, protesting to Governor Gerald Creasy the failed fulfillment of the government pledges while in service during the World WarII. Two rioters were killed. The shooting incident sparked of chaos in the town leading to another 29 Africans being killed. Nkrumah was arrested together with his colleagues popularly known as the Big Six. (Nkrumah, Danquah, William Ofori, Addo, Adjei and Obetsebi Lamptey). This arrest popularized Nkrumah among the Africans. The 1948 Alken Watson commission blamed the social-economic oppression for the riots. The governor ordered for constitutional reforms led by J.H Coussey.On 12th June 1949, Nkrumah broke ranks with the conservative UGCC senior members and formed the Convention Peoples Party (CPP). His party gained support mainly from among the primary school leavers, store- keepers, artisans, peasants and cocoa farmers. Nkrumah advocated positive action through legitimate political action, newspaper and political campaigns and constitutional application of boycotts, strikes and non-cooperation based on the policy of absolute non- violence on the basis of Mahatma Gandhi teachings. He started a newspaper, The Accra Evening News to expound CPP views. He was arrested, but secured landslide victory in the February 1951 elections while in jail. He was released to become the leader of government business in the new cabinet. CPP also won in the 1954 elections in which a new party, the National Liberation Movement (NLM) had emerged to compete CPP. NLM membership mainly from the Ashanti, were uncomfortable with Nkrumah because; ~ He came from a small ethnic group little known in southern Ghana. ~ His radicalism did not please the conservative Ashanti leaders. Again elections were called in July 1956 and CPP trounced NLM. This time, the British accepted the results and on 6th March 1957, the country attained political independence under Kwame Nkrumah **Achievements of CPP under Kwame Nkrumah** a) CPP under Nkrumah united Africans of all ranks in Ghana in the struggle for national liberation. b) The party introduced the concept of positive action to pressurize the government to liberate Africans. c) CPP formed the first African government in Africa in 1951 after winning the elections. Under Nkrumahs leadership, Ghana began attaining economic development. d) CPP, under Nkrumah, advocated for unity of all Africans in the country us other parties like NLM advocated for regionalism, a factor that enhanced progress towards political libration.How Kwame Nkrumah contributed to the liberation struggle in Africa. a) He funded nationalists in other countries e.g. Guinea and Algeria. b) He supported other African leaders who faced political threats from their former colonial masters. c) When some countries were faced with threats from their former colonial masters after independence like in the case of Patrice Lumumba in DRC, Nkrumah provided them with his support. d) He championed trade unionism in Africa. e) He attended pan-African congress in 1945 which was key to defining the liberation struggles in Africa. f) He initiated the formation of the Ghana- Guinea Union in 1958 as a practical step towards building African unity. g) He convened two pan-African conferences in April 1958 and the all African Peoples conference in December 1958 that led to the formation of O.A.U in 1963. **NATIONALISM IN MOZAMBIQUE** Mozambique was among the last countries in Africa to attain independence from the Portuguese. Even before the Berlin conference, Mozambique and Angola were considered Portuguese colonies owing to the laters interests in the region dating back to the pioneer years. **Reasons for slow process in decolonization process of Mozambique.** a) Mozambique was colonized by a colonial power that was very poor and backward and which needed to keep its hold on her to enable her economy grow. She was an important source of revenue for the Lisbon government. b) Mozambique housed many settlers who had invested heavily in farming, mining, building, construction and in other sectors. They were therefore reluctant to leave. c) Mozambique was an important market for Portuguese products. Portugal was not willing to let go easily. d) The support, which the colonial government got from South Africa, enabled them to get uranium, which they used, for making bombs used to suppress African independence riots. They also got electricity and assistance to built caborra bassa dam on Zambezi. e) Mozambique was big geographically with very poor infrastructure i.e. roads and communication facilities. This hampered fast movement of people and ideas. f) Unlike other colonized countries, Mozambique suffered the worst kind of exploitation and repression/ rigorous censorship and surveillance by security forces, which discouraged emergence of nationalism. g) The Portuguese practiced racism out of fear that if they educated Africans and gave them equal status, the Africans would outnumber them and throw them out. **Factors for the growth of nationalism in Mozambique.** a) The arbitrary replacement of the traditional rulers by the Portuguese administrators whenever they felt they were not performing. b) The massive alienation of African land by the Portuguese who pushed Africans to regions of unfavourable conditions. c) The exposure of Africans to severe economic exploitation like forced labour where the labourers faced mistreatment. d) The rampant racial discrimination through which Africans continued to lose agricultural land to the Europeans. Being from a poor country, the Europeans competed with Africans for simple jobs like taxi driving and often gaining advantage on racial lines. e) The Portuguese imposed many restrictions on Africans, limiting their freedom of expression and intellectual advancement. For example, General Salazar, who rose to power in the 1920s, ensured strict censorship of the press. f) The security police treated Africans with great cruelty. Any political unrest was crushed ruthlessly. **The peak of nationalism in Mozambique**. In early 1960, the Makonde people of Cabo Delgado province formed the MozambicanMakonde Union (MANU).In June 1960 MANU organized a peaceful protest but in which over 600 Africans perished in police firepower. The government outlawed all African organizations with membership of over thirty people. African political activities went underground. Mwalimu Julius Nyerere inviting some of the liberation groups to relocate to Tanzania in 1962. The political groups united to form the Liberation Front of Mozambique (FRELIMO) with Eduardo Mondlane Chirambo, formerly a lecturer at Syracuse University in USA, as its first president.From 1962 to 1964, FRELIMO undertook guerilla training in Bagamoyo and at the Mozambique institute in Dar es Salam in preparation for war. From September 1964, they began a full-scale war against the Portuguese along river Ruvuma and extending their attacks on the Cabo Delgado province. By 1967, the Portuguese forces numbered 65,000 soldiers.Mondlane Eduardo was assassinated in 1969. Samora Machel was elected to become the FRELIMO army commander in 1970.The coup detat in Lisbon in 1974 was a blessing to FRELIMO movement since soldiers who did not favour colonial wars by Marcello Caetano carried it out. The new military junta finally signed an agreement with FRELIMO the enabled the setting up of a transitional gover nment in September 1974. He handed over power to the Africans in 1975 with Samora Machel becoming the first president. Machel died in 1986 in a plane crash blamed on the South African Apartheid regime, unhappy with his support for African nationalists in South Africa.Samora Machels widow, Graca Machel, married South African President Nelson Mandela in 1994. **Reasons why the struggle for independence in Mozambique was violent** a) The depth of suffering by ordinary people in Mozambique was unbearable. b) The harshness of the Portuguese administration could only be matched with similar violence. c) The unwillingness of Portugal to ease her colonial hold and begin the process of decolonization. (they were deeply entrenched in Mozambique) d) Extreme exploitation of Mozambique resources e.g. land, labour, minerals. e) Widespread land alienation left many landless. f) To uproot the Portuguese from Mozambique, they had to use full-scale military operation by the liberators because the masters did not see any sense of granting Mozambique independence peacefully. **Factors that facilitated the defeat of the Portuguese colonial armies by FRELIMO in** **Mozambique.** a) A few Africans were privileged to acquire university education in Portugal and came to form the bulk of FRELIMO leadership. b) The overwhelming support Mozambique fighters received from other African states e.g. Tanzania, Zimbabwe and DRC. From these countries, they gained moral and military support. c) FRELIMO was a formidable, well-organized force, which witnessed rapid expansion from a mere 250 in 1964 to 35000 in 1967. d) The forested environment favoured guerilla warfare. Moreover, the soldiers knew the topography of the country. e) The local population gave their logistic support to the fighters, having become tired of the extreme suppression by the Portuguese administration. f) The movement fighters had their own supply of food. g) African countries through OAU were united against the Portuguese in Mozambique. h) The communist countries notably USSR and china gave FRELIMO military aid. i) FRELIMO adopted the right strategy; liberating the country bit by bit and systematically. This approach won the local peoples support for the movement. j) The FRELIMO Army consisted of all tribes, all sexes and all ages. The women played a very important role in the success of the war. I.e. spies, some fought, hiding the fighters and cooking for them. **Problems that faced FRELIMO in the war against Portuguese** a) Africans experienced severe shortage of basic needs while in the forests. The government forces ensured that food and other supplies did not reach the fighters. b) The attitude of the church in Mozambique made many African faithful reluctant to support the liberation war. The church termed FRELIMO a terrorist organization. c) FRELIMO suffered internal divisions due to ideological differences and selfish ambitions among some of the nationalists. African elites like Reverend Uria Simango and Lazaro Kavandame saw FRELIMO as an instrument of acquiring assets for their own selfish benefits. d) Competition from rival guerilla movements like Revolutionary Committee of Mozambique (COREMO) which broke away from FRELIMO in 1965 due to the laters lean towards socialism. e) The assassination of FRELIMO leader Eduardo Mondlane in Da es Salaam on 3rd February 1969 was a great blow to the nationalists. f) The brutality employed by the Portuguese in dealing with FRELIMO sympathizers. For example at Wiriyamu, in December 1972, 400 civilians, protesting against the Portuguese administration, were massacred. g) The apartheid regime in South Africa and the Unilateral Declaration of Independence regime in south Rhodesia combined forces to fight the nationalists in Mozambique since they were a threat to their countries. **SOUTH AFRICA.** The complex nature of nationalism in South Africa was due to the following reasons; a) The country was not colonized by one specific European power. b) The existence of valuable mineral deposits made the Europeans more aggressive in their efforts to control the wealth in South Africa. There existed different types of nationalism in South Africa namely; ~ The British nationalism ~ Afrikaner nationalism ~ African nationalism. **Afrikaner nationalism** Afrikaners were the Dutch speaking speaking settlers. The Afrikaner nationalism emerged in the 19th century reaching its peak in 1948 when their Nationalist Party under Daniel F. Malanwon the lections introducing the Apartheid policy. **Reasons for the birth of Afrikaner Nationalism in South Africa.** a) The desire to regain the culture against Anglicization, which they considered, was alien. (Anglicization of power, language and cultures) b) The Boers hated the British rule, which they considered as alien. c) The British were dominant in many spheres of life yet they could neither speak nor understand Afrikaners language. d) The Boers wanted to rule South Africa and restore Boer culture, language, education and literature. e) They favoured republican states and complete independence for South Africa and noncooperation with British to fulfill their divine mission of bringing civilization to the heathen. f) The Jameson raid flared up Boer sentiments. Jameson, a Briton led a force of 500 soldiers to invade Transvaal, a Boer territory. g) Formation of union of South Africa under British terms. **African Nationalism** Its roots are traced in the 17th century with the first Boer occupation of South Africa. Africans resisted strongly against the interference with their political freedom and economic resources. This was in form of the Xhosa and Ndebele wars of the 17th c and the Zulu wars of 1870s led by Cetewayo.In 1906, a Zulu chief named Bambata staged another African uprising this time against the British who had annexed the Zululand in 1887.From 1910, when the union of South Africa was created and the Afrikaners gained political control of South Africa, Africans lost all the political privileges they previously enjoyed like ability to vote and contest parliamentary seats.Africans founded independent churches and formed organizations like the Orange River Organization. **Factors for the growth of African nationalism in South Africa** a) The role of the Christian religion whose ideals encouraged Africans to fight for equality, as all people were equal before God. The Boers however treated Africans with contempt. b) The exposure of Africans to severe economic exploitation like land alienation and causing them to be subjected to forced labour on Afrikaner farms. Even the native Land Act of 1913 denied Africans the right to purchase land outside the areas set aside for Africans. c) The influence of Pan-Africanism in South Africa as early as the 19th century when people like Rev. Dube founded the Ohlange Institute to educate fellow Africans in South Africa. d) The introduction of racial discrimination enshrined in the apartheid law of 1948 convinced Africans that only freedom could save them. All the best hotels, restaurants, schools, recreational centres and most fertile soils were reserved for the whites only. e) The Acquisition of western education by many Africans like Rev. Dube, Walter Sisulu and Nelson Mandela enabled them to articulate their grievances more forcefully. They became pioneers of early African political parties. f) The return of the ex-servicemen after the second world war which exposed the myth of the white supremacy making Africans ready to fight them. The war also exposed them to democratic ideals elsewhere. g) The great exploitation of African labour through Labour regulations and laws. For example, the Mines and Works Act of 1911 effectively excluded Africans from all skilled occupations confining them to manual occupations in Mines and farms. h) The development of large urban centres created an enabling environment for Africans to forge close inter-ethnic relations that enabled them to counter the Afrikaner racist policies. **Formation of the African National Congress, 1912** Opposition to the Natives Land Act led to the formation of the South African Native NationalCongress (renamed the African National Congress [ANC] in 1923) by South Africa's educated African elite in a meeting at Bloemfontein on January 8, 1912. ~ The founding president was John L. Dube, a minister and schoolteacher. ~ Pixley Ka Isaka Seme, a lawyer, was appointed treasurer. ~ Solomon T. Plaatye, a court translator, became secretary general. ~ Other members were Thomas Mapikela, Walter Robusana, Solomon Plaatye and Sam Makgatho.The congress was moderate in composition, tone, and practice. However, In 1940s, a militant form of nationalism emerged under the ANC Youth League formed in 1943 led by Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu and Oliver Tambo, emphasizing the inalienable right of the Africans to the African continent. As a result of the Leagues activities, violent confrontations between ANC and the government broke out in 1952 in Witwatersrand, Kimberley and Eastern Cape.The Congress of the People and the Freedom CharterIn 1952, Albert Sisulu became the president of the organization and presided over the congress of the people which adopted the Freedom Charter on June 25 and June 26 1955.The congress drew 3,000 delegates from; ~ The black (the ANC). ~ White (the Congress of Democrats). ~ Indian and coloured (the the SA Coloured People's Congress) political organizations ~ The multiracial South African Congress of Trade Unions (SACTU). The Freedom Charter emphasized that South Africa should be a non-racial society with no particular group assumed to have special rights or privileges. After adoption of the charter, in 1956 the police arrested 156 leaders, including Luthuli, Mandela, Tambo, Sisulu, and others, and put them on trial for treason in a court case that dragged on for five years. The Pan-Africanist Congress and Sharpeville. The Africanists, led by Robert Sobukwe, criticized the ANC for allowing itself to be dominated by 'liberal-left-multi- racialists. They formed their own organization, the Pan-Africanist Congress (PAC) in 1959. In March 1960, the PAC began a national campaign against the pass laws. One such demonstration outside the police station at Sharpeville, the police fired on the demonstrators, killing at least 76 of them and wounding 186. Approximately 18,000 demonstrators were arrested, including the leaders of the ANC and the PAC, and both organizations outlawed. **The ANC and the PAC Turn to Violence** Prohibited from operating, both the ANC and the PAC established underground organizations in 1961. The militant wing of the ANC, Umkhonto we Sizwe (Spear of the Nation), targeted strategic places such as police stations and power plants. Poqo (Blacks Only), the militant wing of the PAC, engaged in a campaign of terror, targeting in particular African chiefs and headmen believed to be collaborators with the government and killing them. 17 Umkhonto leaders, including Walter Sisulu were arrested at Rivonia farm house. Along with Nelson Mandela, they were tried for treason. Albert Luthuli was confined by government to his rural home in Zululand until his death in 1967. Tambo escaped from South Africa and became president of the ANC in exile. Robert Sobukwe of Poqo was jailed on Robben Island until 1969 and then placed under house arrest in Kimberley until his death in 1978. The Johannesburg railway station bomber, John Harris, was hanged. **The Black conscious movement - Soweto, 1976** In the absence of other forms of political expression, young people sought alternative means to express their political aspirations. African university students, disappointed with the multiracial National Union of South African Students (NUSAS), decided to establish the South African Students' Organization (SASO) in 1969 with Steve Biko, an African medical student at the University of Natal, as president.In 1972, a Black allied workers union and the Black Peoples' Convention (BPC) was set up to act as a political umbrella organization for the adherents of black consciousness. In 1972, SASO organized strikes on university campuses resulting in the arrest of more than 600 students. On June 16, 1976, hundreds of high-school students in Soweto marched in protest against use of Afrikaans as a Language of instruction. Over 360 African school children were killed.On 12th September 1977, Steve Biko, who had been held in indefinite detention, died from massive head injuries sustained during police interrogation. In October 1977, SASO, the BPC and all black consciousness organizations were banned. **The peak of African nationalism in South Africa** In 1983, P.W. Botha's government proposed establishment of separate houses of parliament for each racial group. In place of the single House of Parliament were; ~ A 50-member (all-white) House of Assembly. ~ A 25-member (coloured) House of Representatives. ~ A 13 member (Indian) House of Delegates. **Implications and results** ~ Whites thus retained a majority in any joint session. ~ Liberal government opponents denounced Botha's plans arguing it would permanentlyexclude Africans from any political role in South Africa. ~ Most blacks strongly condemned the new constitution as it reinforced the apartheid notion. ~ Indians and coloureds also condemned the constitution feeling it weakened their participation in the political process ~ Radical Afrikaners, led by Eugene Terry Blanche, vowed to use all means, including violence, to make sure that apartheid was not weakened.The United Democratic Front (UDF), which was formed in late 1983 and the National Front (NF) aimed to use nonviolent means to persuade the government to withdraw its constitutional proposals and do away with apartheid. The UDF membership included, Bishop Desmond Tutu and the Reverend Allan Boesak, who emerged as its prime spokesmen.Black trade unions meanwhile resorted to economic and political protests. For example, TheNational Union of Mineworkers (NUM), formed in 1983 by Cyril Ramaphosa, successfully brought work in mines to a stop in a dispute over wage increases. By end of 1985, 879, fatalities and 8000 arrests were linked to political unrest. ANC and UDF were banned.Meanwhile, Supporters of the Zulu-dominated Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) and the banned ANC clashed in an upsurge of \"black-on-black\" violence that would cause as many as 10,000 deaths by 1994.President Botha resigned under pressure on August 14, 1989, the Electoral College named de Klerk to succeed him in a five-year term as president. In October 1989, De Klerk released Walter Sisulu and others except Mandela.

Kenyatta was arrested in October 1952 and indicted with five others (Bildad Kaggia, Fred Kubai, Paul Ngei, Achieng Oneko and Kungu Karumba).At Kapenguria trials lasting 5 years, Rawson Macharia who was the main prosecution witness later confessed that he had been bribed to give false information about Kenyatta. The defense was led by British barrister D.N. Pritt. The court led by Judge R.S.

On 1 June 1964, Kenyatta became an executive President following amendment of the Constitution to make Kenya a republic. **Commentary** Historians have questioned Kenyattas alleged leadership of the radical Mau Mau movement. Kenyatta was in truth a political moderate. It is even alleged that the colonial administration deliberately arrested him to protect him from the radical KAU members who accused him of betraying their course. (There were three attempts to assassinate him before he was arrested). His marriage of Colonial Chief's daughters, his post independ- ence Kikuyu allies mainly being former colonial collaborators, and his short shrift treatment of former Mau Mau fight ers after he came to power, all strongly suggest he had scant regard for the Mau Mau **Kenyatta and nation building** On 10 November 1964, KADU officially dissolved and its representatives joined KANU, forming a single party. Kenyatta was re-elected un-opposed in 1966, and the next year had the Constitution amended to expand his powers.

On 22 August 1978, he died in Mombasa due to old age. He was buried on 31 August 1978 at a mausoleum on Parliament grounds.Kenyattas tenure as president featured the following problems. a) There was a great split within KANU due to his land policy.

The Land-buying companies formed to buy European farms favoured one community. b) From the onset of independence, KADU advocated for Majimboism and therefore opposing national unity. c) The 1966 term featured border conflicts with Somalia, and more political opposition. He made the Kikuyu-led KANU practically the only political party of Kenya.

The country remains a de facto confederation of competing tribes. b) His resettlement of many Kikuyu tribesmen in the country's Rift Valley province is widely considered to have been done unfairly. c) His authoritarian style, with elements of patronage, favouritism, tribalism and/or nepotism drew criticism and dissent, and set a bad example followed by his successors. d) He had the Constitution radically amended to expand his powers, consolidating executive power. e) He was also been criticized for ruling through a post colonial clique of his relatives, mainly African Kikuyu colonial collaborators from Kiambu, while giving scant reward to the real fighters for Kenya's independence. f) Kenyatta has further been criticized for encouraging the culture of wealth accumulation by public officials their office influence, thereby deeply entrenching corruption in Kenya. g) His policies are also criticized for leading to a large income and development inequality gap in the country favouring mainly Nairobi and the Country's Central Highlands, over others. **Tom Mboya** Thomas Odhiambo Mboya was born on August 15, 1930 in Kilimambogo, near Thika town.In 1942, he joined St. Mary's School Yala.

That all persons whether individual or in government, are subject to the law. In Kenya, all citizens and residents are subject to and governed by the same law irrespective of their status, race and religion **Elements of the rule of law.** a) The principle of legality. The state can only exercise those powers granted to it by the law. It should be a government of laws and not of men. b) Separation of powers of the three arms of government. This refers to the practice of dividing the powers of government into the executive, legislature and judicial functions equally and putting in place a system of checks and balances to ensure they control each other. The three functions are to be independent of each other. c) Equality before the law. Everyone should be treated equally under the law. d) The judiciary must work without favour or the fear of intimidation in the administration of justice. **The principles of the Rule of Law.** Joseph Raz in an article titled, The Rule of Law and its Virtues outlines the following eight principles of the rule of law. a) All laws should be prospective and open. A new law should only apply in future. b) Laws should be durable and not changing every other day. c) No centre of power, and specifically parliament, should enjoy monopoly right in making laws for citizens of a country, the judiciary should scrutinize parliament. d) The independence of the judiciary should be protected. e) The principal of natural justice should form an important element in the judicial system of a country. f) There must be easy accessibility to the courts of law. They should neither be expensive nor intimidating. g) The security forces should not use force in contravention of the law. Meaning of the concept of Natural Justice. it refers to the requirement that the bodies that resolve disputes adhere to at least minimum standard of fair decision making **Two principles govern the Concept of Natural Justice.** 1. The person affected by an impending decision must have the right to a fair hearing prior to the decision being made. 2. The person or body hearing the case should act in good faith and without Bias. The right to fair hearing a) The accused must be given prior notice of the case against him and given a chance to respond. b) The accused must be given chance of knowing the case against him and stating his own case. c) The person charged should have opportunity to consider, challenge and contradict any evidence, being fully aware of the allegations leveled against him. d) The person has a right to legal representation by a legally qualified person. e) All legal decisions should have reasons within the law.. **The rule against Bias.** Full inquiry must be conducted into the circumstances involved before the Arbitrator makes a decision. The decision made should be impartial with the adjudicator lacking interest in the outcome.A person is presumed innocent until proven otherwise and the police have no right to beat up suspects. **HISTORY FORM FOUR NOTES**
**World War** World War I or the First World War was a war fought by many countries, which is why it is called a \"world\" war. It started in 1914 and ended in 1918. 135 countries took part in World War I, and more than 15,000,000 people died in the war. **World War One - Causes** The First World War, which began in August 1914, was directly triggered by the assassination of the Austrian archduke, Franz Ferdinand and his wife, on 28 June 1914 by Bosnian revolutionary, Gavrilo Princip. This event was, however, simply the trigger that set off declarations of war. **The actual causes of the war were;** **1) The system of Alliances** An alliance is an agreement made between two or more countries to give each other help if it is needed. A number of alliances had been signed by countries between the years 1879 and 1914. For example, the Dual Alliance signed by Germany with Austria Hungary in 1879 and later joined by Italy in 1882 to become the triple Alliance. This system led to the division of Europe into two antagonistic power blocs. It led to fear and suspicion between nations. It transformed local disputes into a general conflict. The Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy were directly opposed by the Entente powers of France and Russia and later included Great Britain to form the Triple Entente in 1907. **2) Imperialism** Imperialism is when a country takes over new lands or countries and makes them subject to their rule. By 1900, the British Empire extended over five continents and France had control of large areas of Africa. With the rise of industrialism, countr- ies needed new markets. The amount of lands 'owned' by Britain and France increased their rivalry with Germany who had entered the scramble to acquire colonies late and only had small areas of Africa. **3) Economic rivalry.** According to Marxism, the highest form of capitalism would ultimately lead to an inevitable war through economic rivalry. In the late 19th century, all European powers had industrialized or had started. Therefore, to match the needs of economy and industry, nations sought to expand their territory through imperialism in order to gain raw mater- ials and markets. This then led to the clash of imperial interest between nations and ultimately led to conflict and war. **4) Militarism** Militarism means that the army and military forces are given a high profile by the government. The growing European divide had led to an arms race between the main countries. The armies of both France and Germany had more than doubled between 1870 and 1914 and there was fierce competition between Britain and Germany for mastery of the seas. The British had introduced the 'Dreadnought', an effective battleship, in 1906. The Germans soon followed suit introducing their own battle- ships. The German, Von Schlieffen also drew up a plan of action that involved attacking France through Belgium if Russia made an attack on Germany. **5) Nationalism** Nationalism means being a strong supporter of the rights and interests of one's country. The Congress of Vienna, held after Napoleon's exile to Elba, aimed to sort out problems in Europe. Delegates from Britain, Austria, Prussia and Russia decided upon a new Europe that left both Germany and Italy as divided states. Strong nationalist elements led to the re-unification of Italy in 1861 and Germany in 1871. The settlement at the end of the Franco-Prussian war left France angry at the loss of Alsace-Lorraine to Germany and keen to regain their lost territory. Large areas of both Austria-Hungary and Serbia were home to differing nationalist groups, all of whom wanted freedom from the states in which they lived. **6) Moroccan Crisis** In 1904 Morocco had been given to France by Britain, but the Moroccans wanted their independence. In 1905, Germany announced her support for Moroccan indepe- ndence. War was narrowly avoided by a conference which allowed France to retain possession of Morocco. However, in 1911, the Germans were again protesting against French possession of Morocco. Britain supported France and Germany was persuaded to back down for part of French Congo. **7) Bosnian Crisis** In 1908, Austria-Hungary took over the former Turkish province of Bosnia. This angered Serbians who felt the province should be theirs. Serbia threatened Austria Hungary with war. Russia, allied to Serbia, mobilized its forces. Germany, allied to Austria-Hungary mobilized its forces and prepared to threaten Russia. War was avoided when Russia backed down. There was, however, war in the Balkans between **SPECIAL COVERAGE** **The First Moroccan Crisis** The First Moroccan Crisis clearly indicated that Germanys relation with France was at best fragile. In 1905 Morocco was one of the few African states not occupied by a European power. In May 1905 it was agreed that an international conference should be held on Morocco in Algeciras. **The Algeciras Conference of 1906** The main aim was to decide what was to be done with regards to Morocco. The two main protagonists at Algeciras were France and Germany. However, it soon became very clear to Germany that other European powers had sided with France Britain, Spain and Italy. The Algeciras Conference ended on April 7th 1906.The Germans got very little out of the conference. The plan to create a triple alliance or even a quadruple alliance to isolate Great Britain failed. Arguably, by the end of the conference, Britain and France had even closer ties to one another. A German presence in North Africa had also failed to materialize. The French media portrayed Germany as an inferior nation, much to the concern of the more experienced politicians in Paris. The Algeciras Conference may have resolved the crisis in Morocco but the outcome clearly defined Europe into certain camps. At this conference Germany publicly lost out . **The Agadir Crisis of 1911 (the Second Moroccan Crisis.)** The Agadir Crisis occurred in 1911 just four years after the First Moroccan Crisis. Germanys attention was diverted after the 1905-06 crises by other issues, mainly building up her navy so that it rivaled the Royal Navy. As a result France spent five years having far more influence in Morocco than Germany. They backed the corrupt Sultan, Abdul Aziz, who was accused by some of his countrymen of selling out Morocco to the French. The half-brother of Aziz, Mulay Hafid, took a stand on behalf of the Moroccan people who proclaimed him Sultan in January 1908. Fez also came under attack. In April 1911 a decision was made in Germany to send troops to Fez to support the foreign contingent living there. The plan was to send German warships to Agadir and Mogador ostensibly to defend German citizens in Morocco. A gunboat, the Panther, was sent to Agadir on July 1st 1911. **What part did the Agadir Crisis play in the outbreak of World War One?** The episode proved that Germany was hell-bent on trying to dominate Europe as a whole. Winston Churchill and David Lloyd George were among those who believed this. 1911 and 1912 when the Balkan states drove Turkey out of the area. The states then fought each other over which area should belong to which state. Austria -Hungary then intervened and forced Serbia to give up some of its acquisitions. Tension between Serbia and Austria-Hungary was high. **8) The Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand** A secret society called Ujedinjenje Ili Smrt, ('Union or Death') or Black Hand was founded in Belgrade, an outgrowth of an older Serb nationalist group: Narodna Odbrana. When it was learned that the Heir-Apparent to the Austrian throne, Franz Ferdinand, was scheduled to visit Sarajevo in June of 1914, the Black Hand decided to assassinate him. Three young Bosnians were recruited, trained and equipped: Gavrilo Princip, Nedjelko Cabrinovic and Trifko Grabez. The murders of Franz Ferdinand and Sophie brought Austro-Serbian tensions to a head. As Vienna took a hard line against Serbia, the other powers in Europe took sides. The wheels of war gained speed. The Crisis of July turned into world war, just over thirty days after Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie were shot. **System of Alliances.** By 1914, Europe had divided into two camps. 1) The Triple Alliance was Germany, Italy and Austria-Hungary. 2) The Triple Entente was Britain, France and Russia. **1) The Triple Alliance** The alliance between Germany and Austria was natural. Both spoke the same language - German - and had a similar culture. Austria was in political trouble in the south-east of Europe - the Balkans. She needed the might of Germany to back her up if trouble got worse. Italy had joined these countries as she feared their power on her northern border. Each member of the Triple Alliance (Germany, Austria and Italy) promised to help the others if they were attacked by another country. By the close of the war the Central Powers had been extended to incorporate Bulgaria and Turkey **2) The Triple Entente** The Entente Powers comprised a military alliance - driven by a variety of inter-related treaties - of France, Great Britain and Russia.The Entente alliance sprang from the military concerns of Germany's neighbours to east and west. Russia and France; accordingly in 1894 they signed an alliance based upon fears of growing German power. Britain subsequently forged alliances with both Russia and France once it became clear that Germany intended to construct a navy to match the Royal Navy in the late 1890s. Thus the Entente Alliance was not a formal alliance. The term was later replaced by the more general 'Allies' to include other nations including Italy and Japan. **THE COURSE OF THE WAR.** The war was fought in three continents; Europe, Africa and Asia and both on land and on the sea. In Europe, the war was fought in two fronts 1. The Western Front was where most of the fighting between Germany and the Allies happened. The war in western front was fought in Belgium and France as per the Schlieffen plan. Count Alfred von Schlieffen, mastermind of the Schlieffen Plan, served as Germany's Chief of the Imperial General Staff from 1891 to 1905. It was Schlieffen's plan, long after he retired fro army (1906) that was used for the August 1914 attack on France that was to trigger World War One. The Schlieffen Plan entailed an attack on France (while Russia mobilised her army) followed by an attack on Russia. The plan meant that Germany could place the bulk of her military might on one frontier and then move it to another. **The basic mechanics of Von Schlieffens plan were;** a) A devastating attack on France via neutral Belgium as soon as Russia had announced her intention to mobilise, which would take six weeks. b) A holding operation on the Russian/German border to be carried out if necessary and if required. c) Germany was to use 6 weeks to defeat France. a massive and successful surprise attack against France would be enough to put off Britain becoming involved in a continental war d) Germany would then use her modernised rail system to move troops quickly from the French operation to the Russian front. Russia would then be attacked and defeated. **The Schlieffen Plan was daring but it had a number of glaring weaknesses:** a) The actions of Russia determined when Germany would have to start her attack on France even if she was ready or not. b) It assumed that Russia would need six weeks to mobilise. But she mobilized faster than it was assumed. c) It assumed that Germany would defeat France in less than six weeks. Early on July 31, Russia began a full mobilization of its forces in preparation for war with Austria-Hungary. On August 1, Germany declared war on Russia and German troops began moving into Luxembourg in preparation for invading Belgium and France. On August 2, Germany contacted the Belgian government requesting free passage through Belgium for its troops. This was refused by King Albert and Germany declared war on both Belgium and France on August 3.The German Army went into Belgium on the 4 August. On the same day, Great Britain started a war on Germany, because Britain was a friend of Belgium. When the Germans got to the Belgian city of Lige, they did finally push the Belgians out of the city, but it had taken longer than the German generals had planned.On December 24-25, 1914, there was a temporary halt to the fighting on parts of the Western Front. This was the Christmas truce.The initial force behind the Christmas Truce came from the Germans. Christmas was celebrated in full, with men visiting across the lines and gifts of food and tobacco being exchanged. As Christmas ended, both sides reluctantly returned to war, the bonds forged at Christmas slowly eroded as units rotated out and the fighting became more ferocious.By 1915, the Western Front had become a stalemate as both sides engaged in trench warfare.The men on both sides took spades and dug lines of trenches went all the way from Switzerland to the North Sea, because they did not want to be killed. In front of the trenches, there was barbed wire that cut anyone who tried to climb over it, and mines that blew up anyone who tried to run across the \"no man's land\" that was in between the trenches. Gas was also an important weapon used.The war in the west was static in the next three years and attempts by the military commanders on both sides to break the stalemate led to deaths of many soldiers. At the battle of the Somme in 1916 60,000 British men died in a single day. It was one of the bloodiest days in the history of the British army. Seeking to shatter the Anglo-French lines, the German Chief of Staff, Erich von Falkenhayn, began planning a massive assault on the French city of Verdun. The Battle of Verdun lasted from February 21, 1916 until December 18, 1916 and was one of the longest and bloodiest battles of World War I. A brutal battle of attrition, Verdun cost the French an estimated 161,000 dead, 101,000 missing and 216,000 wounded. German losses were approximately 142,000 killed and 187,000 wounded. 2. The Eastern Front was fought in Central and Eastern Europe and was one of the main places where World War I took place. The start of the war on the eastern front involved an attack on Russia on 1st of august 1914. On August 6, Austria-Hungary declared war on Russia and six days later entered into hostilities with France and Britain. The Russians were decisively defeated by allied forces of Austria and Germany at the battle of Tanneberg in august 1914 and at the battle of Missourian Lakes in September 1914. **War in the seas** Some of the fiercest battles between the Allies and the central powers took place in the sea.By May 1916, Germanys main fleet was stationed in the North Sea to attack Britains fleet. However, the British intelligence decoded the German wireless code and was able to prepare the royal navy to fully counter Germanys challenge. Both sides suffered causalities in the war that followed. 11 german ships and 14 British ships were lost. **Importance of Britains supremacy at sea** a) The British naval forces assisted in blocking the central powers particularly the Germans from accessing food and raw materials from other parts of the world. This derailed their war plans. b) Her naval supremacy enabled the allies to capture colonies of the central powers. c) The sea blockade enabled the allies to maintain uninterrupted communication with other allied forces, as well as safeguard the british food and raw material supplies from other parts of the world. **The final phase of World War 1** The final phase of the war was a second Germany onslaught on France in 1918 where the Germans were decisively defeated in the hands of USA soldiers. **End of World War I.** ***Two events that led to the end of World War I were:*** 1) Russias withdrawal from the war after the Great Russian revolution. 2) The declaration of war by the United States of America against the central powers. **The First Russian Revolution** In 1917, there was a revolution in Russia. The Russian people didn't want to fight anymore, because the war had been putting burdens on them, and many of them were poor and hungry. **The Second Russian Revolution** Two factions fought to rule over Russia. The passive Mensheviks lost against radical Bolsheviks. The leader of the Bolsheviks was Vladimir Lenin (1870-1924) which was Communist who followed the ideas of Karl Marx. The new government sued the Germans for peace, and signed a peace treaty called Brest-Litvosk with the Central Powers in March 1918 at the city of Brest Litovsk. The Germans and Russians stopped fighting. This gave Germany lots of land in Eastern Europe and the Baltic Sea **USA entry into the war.** The German generals using submarines named U-boats (underwater boats) attacked American ships (Lusitania) that were carrying food and weapons to Great Britain. Some Americans were killed by the submarines.Germany also wrote a secret telegram note to Mexico suggesting that the two countries work together to attack the United States (the Zimmerman Telegram- because the person who sent it was named Arthur Zimmerman- the german foreign minister). **Other reasons why USA entered the war on the side of the Allies were;** a) America was concerned with safeguarding her trade with Britain. (US Anglo relationship was strong). USA was fully aware that the a defeat of Allied powers would cost her financial and industrial institutions b) The USA and British intelligence were able to link some Germany sympathizers with the industrial sabotage in factories and trade unions in the USA. c) Cruelty of the Germans led to the growth of anti-Germany feelings in the United States. Many of the Allies sympathizers had relatives in either France or Britain. American people decided that they wanted their country to enter the war to punish Germany. On April 6, 1917 the United States declared war against Germany and became part of the Allies.The socialist politicians declared Germany a republic and met with the Supreme Commander of the allied forces on 7th November 1918, Ferdinand Foch, to negotiate for end of the war with very stiff terms to the Germans. **The stiff terms given to the Germans included;** a) Germany to withdraw from all occupied territories, including overseas colonies. b) All German forces west of the Rhine to be withdrawn. c) All German warships to surrender to the Allies. d) Occupation of some parts of Germany by the Allies. e) All Allied prisoners of war to be released. The Germans were given 72 hours to either accept or reject these stiff conditions. Protesting bitterly, they signed an armistice on 9th November 1918. At 11:00 AM on 9th November 1918, the war ended. **Reasons why the allies won World War I.** a) Allied powers had many supporters drawn from 25 states some of which were Britain, France, Belgium, Russia, Italy, USA, Japan and Portugal. They had more manpower than the central powers. b) Germany failure to effectively control her expensive colonies and others turned against her. c) USA entry into war on the side of the allies accelerated the defeat of the central powers. The industrial might of USA and her economic wealth helped the Allies to force the central powers to their knees. d) The Allies had able and focussed political leaders like Lloyd George-the British Premier and Georges Clemenceau, the French Premier. e) Germans/axis powers made serious technical mistakes like invasion of the neutral Belgium by Germany which turned the world opinion against the central powers. f) Superior naval power of the Allies. The superiority of the British Royal Navy enabled the Allies to enforce a naval Blockade that caused severe food shortages among the central powers. g) Germany fought the war on many fronts. h) Germany was badly led down by her colleagues like Italy who decamped and Bulgaria and Austria-Hungary who had to be assisted all the time. Turkey on her part easily accepted defeat. i) The Allies had financial and industrial resources in Europe and in their colonies which were used to great advantage during the war. j) The Allies had powerful weapons e.g. they used Tankers, Aircraft and Battleships. k) The allies were united under the Command of General Foch which disadvantaged the central powers. German also used young and inexperienced soldiers after 1918 due to heavy causalities. l) The central powers were surrounded by the Allies as they lay in the centre of Europe. They also lacked an extensive coastline and thus were easily blockaded. **The Peace Treaties.** In January 1918, Woodrow Wilson, President of the USA, outlined, in his speech to the congress, the fourteen points that were essential in maintenance of world peace. **Among these were three great principles that formed the basis of world peace** **namely;** 1. Self-determination of all peoples, i.e, the right of peoples all over the world to determine their own fate. 2. The need to make public all diplomatic and international agreements. 3. The need to establish a League of Nations which would provide an avenue for discussing all international problems, protect small states from aggression by large ones.In January 1919, statesmen from the 27 Allied powers converged at Paris, France to determine the fate of the defeated central powers. The central powers were not party to the discussions but were required to sign on the final . The Key personalities at the conference were; *a) Lloyd George( PM of Britain)* *b) George Clemenceau (PM of France)* *c) Woodrow Wilson (President of USA)* *d) Vittorio Orlando (PM of Italy)* Five treaties were signed with each of the central powers separately as follows; *a) The Treaty of Versailles with Germany (28th June 1919)* *b) Treaty of St. Germaine with Austria (10th September 1919)* *c) Treaty of Neuilly with Bulgaria (27th November 1919)* *d) Treaty of Trianon with Hungary (4th June 1920)* *e) Treaty of Sevres in 1920 and Lausanne in 1923 with Turkey.* **The Treaty of Versailles.** It should be noted that all the above treaties were generally referred to as the Treaty of Versailles. **Terms of the Versailles Treaty of 1919.** a) The treaty declared Germany an aggressor who was supposed to pay reparations and whose military capability was to be reduced. b) She lost all her colonial passions with the African colonies being taken from her and put under supervision of the League of Nations. c) The treaty of St. Germaine provided for the creation of Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Herzegovina and Malta as mandated territories. d) Germany was totally disarmed and only allowed to retain a force of 100,000 soldiers and her navy was disbanded. Military conscription was banned in Germany. e) Germanys population and size was reduced as Austria, with a large German population was allowed to remain independent. Italy acquired Stria, the Italianspeaking region of Austria. f) Rhineland was to be permanently demilitarized. Germany troops were not allowed in the region. h) By the treaty of Versailles, Germany lost the provinces of Alsace and Lorraine to France. i) The treaty established the League of Nation. **Failures of the treaty of Versailles.** a) The treaty handed Germany a heavy punishment as if she was the only one to blame for World War 1. This provoked deep resentment and bitterness among the German nationals. b) The treaty ignored the interests of the colonial people. The former colonial possessions of Germany and turkey were handed over to France and Britain in total disregard to the African grievances during the Versailles conference c) The treaty failed to carter for the interests of the minority in Europe. The new republic of Austria was forbidden from merging with Germany though a national vote was for the merger. d) Italy was given a raw deal in the settlement. She was only given Stria, an Italian speaking region formerly belonging to Austria. e) Though the treaty proposal for the formation of the League of Nations came from the USA president Wilson, the US constitution prohibited commitment to such an organization, whose membership required a nation to help a future victim of aggression. **RESULTS OF WORLD WAR I** a) Nationalist movements in Asia and Africa grew in strength and number after the war and a sense of patriotism arose. b) USA gained an upper hand in the post war European affairs. She emerged as a leading world power. c) German military capability was reduced on land and sea and heavy indemnity imposed on her. She lost all her colonies, which were made mandated territ ories of the League of Nations. d) The end of the war marked the beginning of the decline of western imperialism. As early as 1920, there was a possibility of independence for colonial countries. The war encouraged imperial powers to give more freedom to their subjects. e) The end of the war witnessed the creation of new states e.g. Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Finland. f) Germany and Italy fell in the hands of dictators e.g. Mussolini and Hitler. g) The war Created bitter feelings and mistrust among the countries that fought in the war. This continued until the outbreak of the Second World War. h) It led to the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 in Russia as radicals took over government there. i) It led to a change of government in Britain. j) There was greater use of motor vehicles and aircraft, which facilitated transport. k) The art of surgery improved. l) Between 1914 and 1918, European factories were destroyed and business brought down hence heavy losses. m) There was massive destruction of property and infrastructure. n) It led to the great depression 1920 to 1921, which affected economies worldwide. o) It led to increased taxation by he colonial authorities to meet war and post -war demands. **THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS** **Origin and organization of the League of Nations.** The League of Nations was established by the victors of the First World War in 1920 at the treaty of Versailles with the main aim of preventing the occurrence of another war. The idea of its formation was mooted by Woodrow Wilson, the US president who was supported by Lord Robert Cecil of Britain, Jan Smuts of South Africa and Leon Bourgeois of France.The League of Nation came into force during the first meeting in London Britain,on 10th January 1920. **Reasons for the formation of the League of Nations in 1920.** a) It was formed for the Maintenance of world peace / It was specifically created to prevent the outbreak of another world war b) The League of Nations was meant to foster international cooperation in solving problems as they arise. c) It was formed to jointly take instant action against an agreed aggressor by economic and possibly by military means. d) Members were to secure and maintain fair and humane conditions of labour as one way of maintaining peace in the world. e) It was formed to oversee development of territories lost to central powers during the First World War. E.g. Tanganyika, Togo, South West Africa etc. **The main organs of the League of Nations were;** ***The Council.*** It was made up of permanent and Non-permanent members. The permanent members were France, Britain, Italy and Japan. Non permanent members were four, elected by the general assembly.The main role of the council which sat in Geneva was to appoint committees and secretary General with the approval of the majority of the Assembly. It also dealt with disputes amongst member states, reduction of armament, execution of arbitral awards and admittance and expulsion of members. ***The Assembly.*** It met once a year at Geneva and was comprised of three delegates from each member state. It elected non-permanent members to the council. The functions of the Assembly included; a) Control of the Budget of the organization (including contributions and expenditure). b) Admission of new members after approval of a two-thirds majority. c) Appointment of non-permanent members of the League of Nations Council. d) Consideration of treaties. e) Supervision of the work of the League of Nations council. f) Appointment of the 15 judges of the permanent Court of International Justice. g) Giving approval to the appointment of Secretary-General. ***The Secretariat.*** The Secretariat, based in Geneva, consisted of the secretary general and his staff. It was the administrative body of the League of Nations. It kept records of the organization and conducted correspondences including treaties by member states. It implemented the decisions of the League of Nations. It provided continuity between one meeting of the council or the assembly and the next, ***The International Court of Justice.*** Set up between 1920 and 1922, it comprised of eleven judges and four deputy judges elected for nine years by the assembly and the council. It was based at the HagueHolland. Decisions made by the court were binding on all parties in dispute. International Labour Organization.It consisted of 4 delegates- two for member states and two for workers from each member state. Its main aim was to maintain good working conditions for men, women and children. ***The Mandates Commission.*** It had then responsibility of supervising the administration of the trustee colonies. The League of Nations also had several specialized agencies. **Achievements of the League of Nations.** a) The League of Nations, through the Permanent Court of International Justice, maintained international peace and security. E.g. in the city of Danzig in spite of the hostility between the poles and the Germans. b) The League of Nations achieved its objective of treating the minority with humane. The International Office for Refugees, for example, assisted refugees. Victims of the Nazi persecutions were also assisted. c) The league assisted in the administration of the trust territories, through the Mandates Commission. E.g. in Togo, Tanganyika Cameroon and Rwanda-urundi. In addition, the territories acquired from turkey. E.g. Iraq and Palestine. d) The league was able to solve several interstate disputes in a peaceful manner. E.g the frontier dispute between turkey and Iraq over the Mosul province (1924 -1926), the dispute between Poland and Germany over northern Silesia. e) The league successfully restored financial stability in Austria following the economic slump in the country after the World War 1. f) It successfully enforced control over the manufacture and sale of arms. It also held disarmament meetings. g) The league ensured signing of peace treaties to promote security in the world. For example, the Locarno treaties of 1925 that settled boundary disputes between Germany and France. **Failures of the League of Nations.** The League of Nations failed its Prime objective of maintaining world peace in the following ways; a) It failed to solve the Sino-Japanese dispute after Japan invaded Manchuria in China in 1931. Japan after refusing to abide by the Leagues demands that it withdraws from the Chinese territory, even pulled out of the league in 1933. b) The Italian invasion of Ethiopia in 1935. Benito Mussolini, rather than accept the Leagues verdict that he withdraws Italian troops from Ethiopia, pulled out of the League. c) The League failed to stop German Violation of the terms of the Versailles Treaty. She embarked on a remilitarization programme and established a navy and an airbase. d) Nations continued to make many defensive pacts in total disregard of the Treaty of Versailles. e) Germany invaded other regions such as Poland and Austria between 1936 and 1939, while Russia invaded Finland in 1939 in violation of the League of Nations. **Factors that undermined the effectiveness of the League of Nations.** a) Member countries were not willing to take disputes to the international court of justice. b) German was still determined to increase its military strength and continue with its aggression policy. c) Individual nations were more pre-occupied with national interests and pride, at the expense of the organizations interests. d) The Versailles peace settlement resolutions were too harsh to Germany thus leaving the Germans aggrieved and refuse to cooperate with the League of Nations. e) The League of Nations lacked the executive authority to implement its resolutions. f) USA congress refused to ratify the treaty of the League of Nations. This denied the organization diplomatic and economic strength. g) There was shortage of funds to implement the functions of the League of Nations. h) The Appeasement Policy of Britain and France forced them to stand aside and avoid taking a firm action against Japan when she invaded china, Germany when she invaded and occupied Rhineland, and Italy when she attacked Ethiopia. **The Second World War.** The 1930s witnessed the rise of dictators in Europe like Adolf Hitler of Germany, Benito Mussolini of Italy and General Francisco Franco of Spain who intentionally defied international opinion and disregarded the Versailles Treaty and League of Nations. Their activities and those of Japan began to interfere with prevailing peace in the world. This happened at the time when USA had retreated into isolation leaving the task of maintaining world peace only to Britain and France.The Second World War involved most countries in the world with millions of people conscripted for service in both the military and war related industries. **Causes of the Second World War.** ***a) Germanys dissatisfaction based on territorial grievances.*** The Versailles treaty of 1919 imposed harsh and humiliating conditions on Germany, which aggrieved the Germans to the level of being ready to go to war again. ***b) The rise of nationalism in Europe.*** In Germany, the chancellor, Adolf Hitler who had the desire to dominate the whole world, fuelled it. For example, he encouraged German speakers in Sudetenland, Czechoslovakia to demand independence from Czechoslovakia. Italy under Mussolini invaded Ethiopia, in 1939 to regain her lost glory and national pride after the Adowa defeat I 1896. Syria rose up against France. ***c) Political developments in Europe.*** In Italy in 1922, the fascist government under Benito Mussolini came to power. In Germany, Hitlers Nazi government assumed power in 1933. The Fascist government in Italy emphasized on the regaining of lost glory. The Nazi government began a fresh new policy of aggression. ***d) The economic problems caused by the great depression of 1929 to 1931.*** The great slump led to widespread unemployment, declining wages, poverty etc. these led to social discontent and political unrest in many countries of the world. ***e) The failure of Germany to pay reparations.*** This was followed by the French invasion of the Ruhr industrial region- a German territory. This led to increased tension. ***f) Weakening of the League of Nations.*** Japan left the League of Nations after protest over Manchuria, which she had grabbed, from china. Italy left the League of Nations after Mussolini had grabbed Abyssinia and annexed it against the will of the allies and Ethiopians. Russia invaded Finland in 1939 and the league was unable to intervene. There were many secret treaties among members of the league. ***g) The Spanish civil war (1936-1939).*** The republican revolution of 1931 ended the Spanish monarchy. The struggle between the royalists and socialists, however, continued. The European powers took sides in the civil war. France, Britain and Russia supported the royalists. Germany and Italy supported General Franco who was fighting from exile in Morocco. ***h) Growth of military alliances.*** Hitler and Mussolini established a military pact in 1936 (The Berlin-Rome Axis). it became the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis with the joining of Italy. The alliance between Russia and German to divide Poland widened the gap between them and the allied forces. It created fear and suspicion. ***i) The invasion of Poland by Germany.*** This happened in September 1939 was the immediate cause of the war. This upset Britain and France, who stated their intensions of assisting Poland. They declared war on Germany in October 1939. ***COURSE OF WORLD WAR 2*** The invasion of Poland by German forces on 1St of September 1939 and the subsequent declaration of war against Germany by Britain and France on 3rd of September 1939 marked the beginning of the Second World War. Meanwhile on 17 th September 1939, the USSR attacked Poland from the East, as per the secret clause in the Nazi -Soviet act of August 1939. Poland had been overrun by German and Russian forces by 27 th September 1939. The country was divided between Russia and Germany. **The phoney war.** This was a period during world war two when no major military operations were undertaken on the western front although war had been declared on Germany by France and Britain. The period lasted eight months from 3rd of September 1939. It was used by the Allied countries to fully mobilise their forces for an attack on Germany since they had not initially been prepared. Hitler on his part did not want to be involved in war in the west since his armies had not fully recovered from the consequents in the east. During this period, two unsuccessful attempts were made to bring peace; a) On 6th October 1939, Hitler and Stalin of Russia made an attempt to convince the to accept the Nazi Occupation of Poland and make peace. b) On 7th October, King Leopold of Belgium and Queen Wilhelmina of Netherlands appealed to the Axis powers and the Western Allies to make peace. War in Western Europe.On 9th April 1940, Hitler launched a sea-borne invasion against Norway after attacking Denmark via land. They were assisted by a Norwegian Nazi sympathiser Vidkund Quisling. The prime minister of Norway and his Ministers fled to London and Hitler established a puppet government in the country. The defeat of British and French forces in Norway sparked off a parliamentary revolution in Britain forcing the PM Neville Chamberlain to resign to be replaced by Sir Winston Churchill. Germany extended their attack on Luxembourg, Netherlands and Belgium. The Allies were unable to contain the German advance and even retreated to the French port of Dunkirk, marking a major defeat of the allies in Europe.On 14th June 1940, the Germans captured Paris forcing the new Prime Minister Paul Reynaud to sue for peace with Hitler on 22nd June 1940. Under the peace agreement, The Germans took over Alsace Lorraine, Northern France and the Atlantic coastline. the French government fled to Vichy, southern France. **Why the French were defeated so quickly.** a) The French forces were not psychologically prepared for the war and thus were found divided. b) The French forces were not as well organized as the Germans thus exposing various military weaknesses. For example, the Germans were supported by combat planes which the French did not use. c) Poor communication between the army and the airforce. The French generals failed to coordinate the war properly to the extend of ignoring the fact that the Airforce could have been used to drive German Bombers off. Having succeeded in their Paris onslaught, the Germans attacked Britain in July 1940. However, Winston Churchill, the British Premier, had mobilized forces to resist this attack successfully he even obtained reinforcement from USA. The battle of Britain determined the future of World War II. It forced Hitler to delay his attacks. **War in North Africa.** WWII in Africa was marked by the Italian successful attack on French and British Somaliland. Under Marshal Graziani, the Italian forces advanced to Egypt though unsuccessful. In June1942, German forces moved to North Africa to reinforce the Italians.However, British forces led by General Bernard Montgomery moved quickly and captured Malta which would have been used as a base for attack by the Germans. General Montgomery attacked the Germans at El Alamein in Egypt, forcing them to move to west. On 8thNovember 1942, British and American forces invaded Morocco and Algeria.Although the Germans continued fighting in Tunisia, by May 1943, their Army under General Rommel had surrendered. **War in the Balkans.** In August 1940, Hitler Attacked and captured Romania and Bulgaria. In April 1941, Yugoslavia and Greece were taken. Crete was taken in May 1941.On 22nd June 1941, Hitler attacked USSR forcing the Russian troops to retreat. However, he failed to capture Moscow before the onset of winter. In June 1942, the Germans resumed their offensive. They were finally defeated at the battle of Stalingrad on 31st January 1943 by the Russian Red Army led by Marshal Zhukov. The Germans lost 300,000 men while 100,000 survivors surrendered. By May 1944, the Russians had pushed the Germans from their territory and were approaching Germany itself. **Why the Germans were defeated during the Russian Invasion.** a) The Germany army was fighting in several fronts at the same time as compared to the allies. This lack of concentration in one area allowed the other Russian army to defeat them. b) The soviet forces employed the scorched earth policy which left very little for the German forces. c) The Germans ill-treated the soviet people and exploited their economic resources causing resentment and unity to fight with determination. d) Weak leadership by the German military leaders contributed to their defeat. **USA entry into World War I.** The Japanese attack on the American great Naval Base at Pearl Harbour on the Hawaiian island is the one incident that dragged USA into WWII.On 8th December 1941, the USA, Britain and the Netherlands declared war on Japan. The Germans and Italians also declared war on the USA. Russia kept off the war in Asia having signed a treaty with Japan.Japan resisted fiercely. Her airforce sank two British battleships on 10th December 1941.She captured Hong Kong, Malaya in Malaysia and took over the great naval base at Singapore. She also occupied Burma, Dutch East Indies, the Philippines and parts of the western pacific islands.The Japanese forces were repulsed while on their way to Port Moresby, New Guinea in may 1942.In 1942, Britain used her bases in India to attack Japan. Japan attacked India in 1944, but the strong and large allied forces defeated the Japanese at the battle of Kohima. **The defeat of Germany.** After 1942, the tide of success began to turn against Hitler. German forces were defeated by the allies in North Africa and France. By March 1945, the Allies had crossed the Rhine, pushed the Germans out of France in June 1944.The Germans were meanwhile facing the Russian attack from the East. Hitler accepted defeated and handed over power to one of the Military Generals to retreat to an underground Bunker in Berlin.On 29th April 1945, Hitler married his long term Mistress Eva Braun. On the following day, he committed suicide by shooting himself while Eva Braun took Poison. On 7th May 1945, the Germans surrendered unconditionally **Why the Germans were defeated.** a) Germany had acquired far too many territories and she was unable to effectively control them. b) The USSR recovered from her losses and began to rearm in a bid to fight against Germany. c) The USA entry into the war in 1941 on the side of the allies contributed to the eventual defeat of the Germans. d) Germanys Axis powers were only four, fighting against more than 27 allies. Even among the Germany collaborators, Italy surrendered while Bulgaria and Romania also were a burden to the Germans. **The defeat of Japan.** After Germany surrender, Japan continued with fierce fighting sometimes employing the services of suicide bombers known as Kamikaze. The allies were able to liberate the territories captured by Japan After the defeat at Okinawa, Japan was certain of defeat, but her PM , Admiral Suzuki Kantaro, did not believe in unconditional defeat. On 6th August 1945, a bomber Aeroplane, Enola Gay, commanded by Colonel Paul Tibbets, flew over Hiroshima dropping a 4535.15kg atomic bomb. About 78,000 people died.

On 14th August 1941, Franklin Delano Roosevelt of USA and Winston Churchill of Britain, meeting in USA, proposed a set of principles for international collaboration in maintaining peace and security. This was the Atlantic Charter. The charter pledged respect for human Freedom, Allowed all nations the freedom to choose the form of government they preferred and provided that no territory should change hands after war without consent of its people.On 1st January 1942, representatives of Allied nations meeting in Washington signed the Declaration by United Nations and proclaimed support for the Atlantic Charter. This marked the first official use of the term United Nations as suggested by President Roosevelt in reference to the 26 nations. The first Blueprint of the UN was prepared at a conference held at Dumbarton Oaks Estate, Washington from 21st September to 7th October 1944. Representatives of USSR, USA, UK and China agreed on the aims, structure and functions of a world organization.On 11th February 1945, the Yalta Conference held by US president Roosevelt, UK PM Churchill and Russian PM Stalin declared the resolve to establish an international organization to maintain peace and security.On 25th April 1945, the United Nations Conference on International Organization began in San Francisco, USA attended by delegates from 50 nations.

UNO members are also members of other organizations; the interests of these organizations are not in accord with those of the UNO. g) Ideological disputes among member states have hampered the work of UNO in promoting world peace. This was manifested in the cold war period. h) The arms race. The UNO has found it difficult to achieve world peace because of the arms race in different parts of the world. The arms race generates and sustains conflict rather than peace. i) Differences in economic development levels of member states militate against cooperation. j) The increased occurrence of natural disasters such as famine, floods and epidemics has created an unexpected demand for economic resources. This automatically the UNs resources. **THE COMMONWEALTH.** Origin and structure of Commonwealth of Nations. It is a voluntary association of 54 sovereign countries around the world, which were initially part of the British Empire.The commonwealth origin is the British Empire comprising the British protectorates, colonies and dominions, which included Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Newfoundland, Irish Free State and South Africa. The idea to launch the association is traced back to 1839, with the publication of the Durham report.The modern commonwealth began in 1947 with the end of the British rule in India. In 1949, India and Pakistan joined the commonwealth.The commonwealth secretariat is based in London. It deals with day to day running of the organization and organizes meetings.

Members coming from developing world have very different outlook from those coming from the developed world. b) Ideological disputes among member states have hampered the operations of the Commonwealth of Nations. c) Lacks sufficient funds to carry out its work efficiently. Poor members normally owe many debts to their foreign masters and would therefore toe to their demands. d) The problem of sovereignty. Many countries disregard the commonwealth resolutions in favour of their sovereignty. e) It lacks an effective machinery to affect its decisions. It also lacks a standing army to implement and effect its resolutions. f) Loyalty to other organizations. commonwealth members are also members of other organizations; the interests of these organizations are not in accord with those of the commonwealth g) The colonial legacy. Many problems arising from past colonial policies have rocked the organization. E.g. the land issue in Zimbabwe. h) The influence of other organizations like NATO who weaken the commonwealth by wooing members to their regions. i) Race and colour problem. The conflict between white and black people or other color has become another setback. j) Dominance by the big powers. This has caused dismay to the organization. Serious inner tension still undermines the commonwealth activities. **THE NON-ALIGNED MOVEMENT** **NAM STRUCTURE AND ORGANIZATION** NAM was an organization that did not have formal structures like UNO and Commonwealth. It did not have a secretariat or a constitution. The movement had a unique administrative style as follows. **Coordination** The administration is non-hierarchical, rotational and inclusive, providing all member states, regardless of size and importance with an opportunity to participate in global decision making and world politics.The country that hosts the summit holds office until the next summit. Non-aligned countries place the onus of an administrative structure on the country assuming the chair. The country is required to create or designate an entire section of the ministry of foreign affairs to deal specifically with the Non-Aligned Movement. The chairs ambassador in the United Nations essentially functions as the minister of Non-Aligned Affairs.NAM has also created contact groups, task forces and committees to facilitate the chairs responsibility as follows; **The Coordinating Bureau.** This is the focal point for coordination. It reviews and facilitates the harmonization of the NAM working groups, contact groups, task forces and committees. Working Groups, Contact Groups, Task Forces and Committees.They include NAM High-level working group for the restructuring of the United Nations, NAM working group on Human Rights, Disarmament, Committee on Palestine, Contact Groups on Cyprus, and Task Force on Somalia etc. these groupings meet often. **Non-Aligned security Caucus.** The countries that make up the NAM council caucus are expected to constantly strive to adopt unified positions so that the decisions and positions of NAM are reflected in the Security Council decisions without prejudice to their sovereignty. **Joint coordinating committee** This is a coordinating committee established in 1994 and sitting in New York, whose main mandate is to promote cooperation and coordination between the NAM and the Group of 77 in promoting the interests of developing countries in international fora. **Coordination of non-aligned countries in the UN centres.** This is aimed at facilitating coordination and cooperation with the coordinating bureau and enhances the role of NAM in the international Fora. **The Troika.** The concept of Troika emerged on 6th April 1997 in New Delhi, India, during the meeting of foreign ministers of NAM representing past, present and future chairs. The concept simply implies a meeting of past, present and future chairs who began to meet in September 1997 as a discussion forum. **Panel of economists** This is an ad hoc panel of economists formed from Non-Aligned countries to assess the current international economic situation from the perspective of developing countries and to identify and analyze their major issues of concern. **Documentation.** This is the responsibility of the host country but after wide consultation. The host country must circulate the First not later than one month before the meeting. **Decision making.** The movement makes all its decisions by consensus. This concept presupposes understanding of and respect for different points of view, including disagreement and mutual accommodation. This promotes solidarity and unity of the movement. **NAM Meetings** **They include the following** a) Conference of Heads of State and Government. This is NAMs highest decisionmaking authority and meets once every three years. It has two committees, one on political issues and another on economic and social issues. The summit is held atleast one month before the regular session of the UN General Assembly. During the summit, there is a formal ceremony for handing over the chair. b) Ministerial conference. Its task is to review developments and implement decisions of the preceding summit and also discuss matters of urgency. The conference meets 18 months after the summit. c) Ministerial meeting in New York during a session of the UN General Assembly. This is a meeting of foreign ministers annually in New York at the beginning of the regular session of the UN Assembly. The purpose of the meeting is to deliberate on the items of the Agenda of the General Assembly that are of major importance to the movement. d) Ministerial Meeting of the Coordinating Bureau. The main task is to prepare for the summits, and where necessary, to consider issues of major importance to the movement. e) Meeting of the Ministerial Committee on Methodology. The attendance is by all NAM members and its meetings are held by the decision of the summit or the ministerial conference. The meetings are chaired by the chair of NAM. f) Meeting of the standing ministerial committee on economic cooperation. These meetings are meant to strengthen south-south cooperation, reactivate the dialogue between the developing and developed countries and enhance the role of the UN General Assembly, in international cooperation for development. The meetings are held frequently upon recommendation of the coordinating Bureau. g) Ministerial Meetings in various fields of international cooperation. They discuss issues like agriculture, information and external debt. h) Extraordinary Meetings of the Coordinating Bureau. They address exceptional cases that call for urgent consideration. i) Meetings of the Working Groups, Task Forces, Contact Groups and Committees. The meetings are held as often as necessary. **The growth of NAM.** After the Bandung Conference of 1955 which established the movement, NAM has attracted many developing counties. . A number of conferences have been held since then; a) The first summit, Belgrade, 1961. The attendance was by 25 non-aligned countries who met at a time when world peace was threatened seriously by the looming nuclear war. The meetings objective was to prevent the outbreak of a nuclear war in the world. b) The second summit, Cairo, 1964. The summit of October 1964 was attended by 47 Nations and 10 observers. There were 28 representatives from Africa. The conference mainly focused on problems facing NAM countries due to colonial inheritance, policies of former colonial powers and the rivalry between the great powers.. c) The third summit, Lusaka, 1970. The attendance was by 53 members the meeting resolved that time was ripe for declaration on peace, independence, cooperation and democratization. The members were out to fight colonialism and racism. The main resolution was the members determination to achieve economic emancipation. d) The Fourth Summit, Algiers, 1973. It was attended by 75 members, eight observers, three guest nations and 15 liberation movements. The meeting was an attempt to transform the existing system of economic and financial relations in a manner that would liberate developing countries from a subordinate role into an equal position with industrialized countries. The members developed an action programme in the interest of economic cooperation. e) The fifth Summit, Colombo, 1976. It was attended by 86 members, who focused on the liberation of Zimbabwe and Namibia, the abolition of apartheid in South Africa as a way of promoting world peace. f) The sixth Summit, Havana, 1979. The conference was attended by 93 members, 12 observers, 8 guest nations and seven new members. The meeting declared that imperialism, colonialism, neo-colonialism, apartheid, racism, foreign aggression, expansion, occupation, domination, interference or hegemony, Great power bloc, Subjugation, dependency and pressures in international relations as enemies of nonalignment. The chairman of the summit was Fidel Castro who put forth his ideas that the socialist bloc is a natural ally of the movement. g) The seventh summit, New Delhi, 1983. It was attended by 96 members, 16 observers and 20 guest nations. The summit took place at a time when there was intense confrontation as the great powers continued to amass nuclear weapons. . Indra Gandhi appeared to be the moderate leader to host the conference and soften the impact of Cuban radicalism. The conference discussed peace, nuclear disarmament, development strategies for north-south Dialogue on a new world economic order, and the south-south cooperation for collective self-reliance. h) The eighth summit, Harare, 1986. It marked NAMs silver Jubilee. The main concern was Namibias independence and apartheid in south Africa.. NAM emphasized its sanctions against the Pretoria (South Africa) regime. It drew an action plan to deal with the threat posed by South Africa. The summit came up with a special solidarity fund to help the frontline states. i) The Ninth summit, Belgrade, 1989. j) The tenth Summit, Jakarta, 1992. k) The eleventh Summit, Cartagena de Indias, 1995. l) The twelfth Summit, Durban 1998. m) The thirteenth Summit, Kuala Lumpar, 2003. **Performance of the Non-Aligned Movement.** Though critics have questioned the relevance of NAM after dismantling apartheid and achieving independence, and after end of cold war, there still exist situations that require NAMs participation. **Reasons why NAM is still relevant.** a) NAM is the only forum that can articulate the voice of justice and sanity in the world in view of the unending Arms Race. b) NAM is the only forum through which the demand for a less unjust world economic order can be raised given the kind of hold the developed nations still have on developing nations. c) NAM remains the third worlds shield against the pressures of the superpower elephants that can easily trample on the grass of the lesser animals even after end of cold war. d) NAM can still play a role in addressing emerging world issues such as terrorism, environmental degradation, HIV/AIDS and racism. **Achievements of NAM.** a) It has helped speed up the attainment of freedom in states that were under colonial bondage. b) NAM has assisted its members in safeguarding their national security and territorial integrity. c) Nan-aligned nations also worked to eliminate conflict between the superpowers. This helped in the promotion of peace and security for the non-aligned world. India for example played a role in solving the Korean War, the Suez crisis and IndoChinese conflict. d) NAM created a conducive environment for peace, justice, equality and international cooperation by contributing to the relaxation of international tension by keeping clear of the two military blocs, USA and USSR. e) The movement has strengthened African and Asian Countries diplomatically at a time when they lacked necessary physical strength. They were able to exert their voting power as Afro-Asian bloc to influence world affairs. f) NAM provided an international forum where members voices could be heard. It was able to work to dismantle apartheid by its two-third world community membership despite the Reagan administrations opposition to sanctions against South Africa. g) The movement has given members freedom to put their national interests before those of the great power blocs. h) The NAM through the Cairo and Colombo Summits termed as World Disarmament conferences, played a key role in the disarmament process. The 1967 Treaty of Tlatelolco, signed by 22 states, set up a weapon Free Zone in Latin America. i) The Non-aligned states have helped in international crisis management since they are not committed to any course of military action. For example during the 1961 Berlin crisis, Nehru of India and Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana went to Moscow for a peace mission, while Achmad Sukarno of Indonesia and Modibo Keita of Mali went to Washington DC to try and create a conducive atmosphere for managing the crisis. j) NAM has worked towards creation of new international economic order. Members of the movement are able to trade with both the great power blocs. Membership to the Group of 77 in the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) is drawn from the non-aligned nations. The non-aligned nations were open to aid from both blocs and also ready to expand their trade with both sides of the ideological divide. k) The Solidarity fund established during the Harare Summit of 1986 cushioned the frontline states against the economic sanctions imposed on apartheid South Africa. l) NAM has worked to create the new scientific and technological order. The members have demanded a new scientific and technological order by favouring access to the most advanced technology and scientific research available as a means of bridging the technological gap between the developed countries and developing ones. **Factors which have undermined the activities of the Non-Aligned Movement.** a) Political instability is frequently experienced by some member states. For example, civil wars and military coups in DRC, the Sudan, Rwanda, Burundi, interstate wars like in the case of Iran and Irag. This has undermined their contribution to the movement. b) Economic ties between the third world countries and their colonial masters had made it difficult for the member states to pursue an independent line. c) Border disputes between neighboring member countries has weakened the course of the movement. E.g. between morocco and Algeria, North Korea and South Korea, Vietnam and Cambodia, Ethiopia and Somalia, Uganda and Tanzania etc. d) Economic backwardness of some of the member states has made it difficult for them to meet their obligation in the movement as national needs come first in view of the meager resources of some of the nations. e) Ideological differences between member states have undermined their co operation. Its large size of 116 members by 2004 has frustrated its ideological coherence and organizational solidarity. Whereas some countries are inclined towards the west, others are inclined to the east. f) Membership to other organizations like AU, commonwealth and the French community, has made it difficult for some states to participate actively in the affairs of the movement. g) Breakup of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War has destabilized the movement. As power bloc rivalry subsided, NAM appeared to become irrelevant. h) Conflicting national interests. Individual national interests have failed to agree with the objectives of the movement. i) Personality differences between leaders of member states have undermined the . For example, several leaders rejected the radical views of Fidel Catron of Cuba. j) Differences unrelated to the principles of NAM have developed among members. For example at the Colombo Summit of 1978, several Arab states were keen to see Egypt expelled from the movement on grounds that she had signed a separate peace treaty with Israel. This was not an agreement with a superpower and therefore had nothing to do with NAM. k) NAM lacks a permanent Army or a permanent institutional framework or machinery that can enable it carry out its activities effectively. For example, it fai led to persuade irag and Iran to end the 8 year long war from 1980. **THE COLD WAR.** The Cold War refers to the strained relations that existed between the western world led principally by the United States and the communist East led by the USSR, after the Second World War. It was so called because it was fought not with weapons, but with words, propaganda, military and financial aid to enemies of the opposing sides. Although there was no actual physical confrontation, Cold War was characterized by a conflict of the most serious and deadly kind. **Causes of the Cold War.** a) Ideological differences. There was deep-seated fear and mutual suspicion between USA and USSR over the spread of their ideologiescapitalism and communism. E.g The establishment of the Soviet Union through acquisition of satellite states was a measure to contain capitalism. b) Disagreement over the issue of disarmament. The use of atomic bomb on Japan by USA towards the end of World War II alarmed USSR. The two sides failed to agree on an arms reduction plan and continued to stockpile atomic bombs. c) Economic rivalry. In 1947, the USA President Harry S. Truman introduced the Marshal Plan, a scheme to assist western European countries that had been devastated by war. The USSR in turn formed Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (COMECON), an economic cooperative plan for Eastern Europe. This further heightened the hostility between the west and the east. d) Formation of military alliances. In April 1949, the USA, western European countries and Canada formed a military alliance through the signing of the North Atlantic Treaty in Washington D.C. (NATO). The formation of NATO ended USAs isolationist policy. Russians responded by signing the Warsaw Pact, in May 1955, a military alliance of communist countries. These alliances fostered hostility between countries. e) The use of Russian veto powers in the UN. Russia used her veto powers to defeat UN proposals, which she accused of being pro-USA. The struggle by the two powers to dominate the UN increased tension between them. f) Disagreement over the future of Germany as a whole. Western allies wanted a strong Germany to assist in the economic prosperity of other nations. Russia was keen on a politically and economically weak Germany to safeguard against another invasion. NB- in 1961, the USSR built the Berlin Wall, thus dividing East Berlin from West Berlin. g) USAs military advancement. By 1945, the USA was the only country that possessed atomic weapons. This created fear. **COURSE OF THE COLD WAR.** The cold war was fought in Europe Asia, Latin America and Africa, **The course of the Cold War in Europe** The cold war in Europe involved a conflict between the West and the East. The highlights of this conflict included Russias overwhelming encroachment and dominance of Eastern Europe. Russia used her military might to impose communist governments on many states like Poland and Romania. They also fanned civil wars. E.g the Greek civil war of 1946. There were widespread outbreaks of violence and demands of freedoms in Poland and Romania, based on western ideologies, in politics and economy.In Czechoslovakia, communist Russia orchestrated protests against reforms based on western ideologies, by the Dubcek Government, which was supported by the west. Dubcek was arrested and flown to Moscow. Dr. Husak, a Russian ally was installed. **The following are the major developments that characterized cold war in Europe.** a) In March 1947, the US president Harry Truman, through The Truman Doctrine declared that the USA would support free people resisting subjugation by armed minorities. In 1947, USA took over Britains commitment in Greece and turkey to support the anti-communist regimes. b) In 1947, the US Secretary of state, George Marshall came up with a proposal which was to become the Marshall Plan. This was a plan through which the US would make a major contribution to the economic recovery of Europe. The plan was rejected by USSR terming it an American interference in the internal affairs of other nations. c) Stalin set up the Communist Information Bureau (COMINFORM) to coordinate the work of communist parties in Europe and the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (COMECON) to counter the US Marshal Plan. d) The NATO and Warsaw Pact. By the treaty of Brussels in March 1948, Britain, France, Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg formed a defensive alliance against any form of aggression (It became the North Atlantic Treaty Organization-NATO, in April 1949 when other European Nations joined it. In response to NATO, the Soviet Union signed the Warsaw Pact in Poland on 14th May 1955 with East \\Germany and six Eastern European countries. The existence of NATO and Warsaw Pact only intensified the hostilities. e) The Berlin Blockade. Germany was divided into two zones, East and West. Russia treated East Germany as a satellite state thus curtailing trade between east and west. This move almost led to starvation in the west as East Germany was the main producer. In May 1948, all roads and rail routes into West Berlin were sealed off by Russian troops. For over two years, food, coal medical supplies and other necessities to the 2 million people in West Berlin were airlifted since there was no land linkage. The blockade ended in may 1949 with diverstating consequences. f) Partition of Germany. The west was prepared to give freedom to the Germans as a whole to decide their own fate. Russia was determined to ensure that East Germany remained dominated by communism under Russian control. On 23rd may 1949, the western occupation zone in Germany became the Federal Republic of Germany with Konrad Adenauer as the chancellor in September elections. On 7th October 1949, the soviet zone formed the Germany Democratic Republic.In August 1961, the East Germans built the Berlin Wall, curtailing communication and flow of refugees from the west. **The cold war was fought in Asia.** In Asia, China was the first front of Cold War. She embraced communism, following the successful takeover of the country by the forces of Mao Tse-tung in October 1949, assisted by the Russians. The Sino-Soviet Treaty of friendship was signed in 1950. Korea, formerly controlled by Japan, was another front for cold war in Asia. When Japan was defeated in 1945, Korea was occupied from the south by American forces, from the north by Russians, placing the country under joint control. The occupying powers failed to unite the two Korea sections when she became independent.In 1948, the USA announced the formation of the Independent Democratic Republic of Korea in the South. The Russians formed the Peoples Republic of Korea in the north.On 25th June 1950, North Korea Forces invaded South Korea in an attempt to unite. UN condemned this and An American General, Douglas MacArthur led the UN forced that repulsed the invaders. The cold war spread to Vietnam, with USSR and USA clashing over Vietnam, formerly a colony of France that had been seized by Japan. The two super powers supported different nationalist leaders in the struggle for independence from France.The Russians supported Ho Chi-Minh who led a revolt by the Vietnamese, against the French. USA supported Ngo Dinh Diem. The Vietnam War erupted as a resultThe Vietnam War was the heaviest cost of containing communism by Americans in a distant country. Americans were humiliatingly defeated in 1975 with a causality of 53,000, despite employing over 400,000 troops. The communist guerillas, the Viet Cong, established a communist government in South Vietnam. The war strengthened American hostility towards Russia There was an armed conflict between the super powers in Afghanistan from 1978. The height of the conflict in Afghanistan was the Boycott of the Moscow Olympic Games in 1980 as a protest against USSRs involvement in Afghanistan. The conflict took the form of a civil war which was only eased in 1989 when the USSR began to withdraw its troops. **The cold war in Latin America (the Cuban Missile Crisis)** Cuba became the theatre of cold war when USA unsuccessfully supported the Cuban dictator, General Fulgencio Batista against Fidel Castro who was fighting to end Batistas regime. Fidel Castro overthrew the Batista regime in 1958. The new government immediately gained recognition from many world nations including USA and USSR In 1960, Fidel began a communist nationalization programme of American oil refineries and sugar plantations. This strained relations between him and the US who attempted unsuccessfully to invade Cuba in 1961 at Bay of Pigs. In January 1962, Cuba was expelled from the Organization of American States.In May 1962, USSR leader Nikita Khrushchev secretly built missile installations in Cuba as a means of countering any future American invasion, in exchange for sugar. The discovery, by American president J. F. Kennedy in October 1962, of the Russian missile installations in Cuba was the beginning of the most serious cold war crisis. He declared that any nuclear missile attack from Cuba would be taken to be an attack by the USSR and USA would respond accordingly.USA declared a Naval Quarantine on Cuba to blockade any Russian Vessels This most serious cold war crisis was only ended when the Russian leader Khrushchev removed the missiles from Cuba and dismantled Russias bases in Cuba. **The Cold War in Africa.** The cold war in Africa was majorly witnessed in Ethiopia and Angola. In Ethiopia, Mengistu Haile Mariam, overthrew Emperor Haile Selassie in 1974, with the assistance of USSR. Haile Mariam introduced socialist programmes, However, they were short-lived up to the end of his rule in May 1991, when Russians withdrew their assistance.In Angola, on 11th November 1975, Angola attained her independence from Portugal, with the assistance of the Soviet Union and Cuba.Soon after, a bruising civil war broke out. USA supported the rebels, led by Jonas Savimbi and his UNITA movement based in Ovimbudu. Cuba and Russia supported the MPLA government based in Luanda. Democratic elections were held in Angola in 1989, when USSR eased their aid to MPLA. **FACTORS that led to the Cold War dtente by world powers.** a) The death of Stalin and the flexibility of Stalins successor, Nikita Khrushchev. The successor of Joseph Stalin, after his death in 1953, Nikita Khrushchev, was more flexible and willing to relax both cold war abroad and Authoritarianism at home. He announced the policy of peaceful coexistence in 1956. b) The willingness of David Dwight Eisenhower, Trumans successor, to reach compromise with the Soviet Union over a number of issues. For example he convened the Camp David Summit in 1959, with Khrushchev in which a cooperative spirit emerged between the east and the west. However this happened against the backdrop of the Cuban missile crisis. c) The signing of the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty (The SALT Treaty) in 1972. The treaty, signed between USA and Russia limited strategic arms to certain quantities. This was followed by the Improvement of the Chinese American relations in 1972 and American relations with Russia. In 1972. President Nixon visited Beijing and Moscow d) The introduction of reforms in Russia by Mikhail Gorbachev. In 1985, Gorbachev introduced the Glasnost (openness policy) and the perestroika reforms (economic restructuring that appealed favourably to the west) which won him the Nobel peace Prize in 1990. e) The adoption of President Reagans Strategic Defence Initiative (SDI) in 1983. This initiative led to setting up of space stations that would destroy every missile in the sky. This was Star Wars. f) The collapse of the Communist rule in Europe. Russias president recognized the independence of other republics of USSR in 1989 thus weakening Russias position. Western democracy was introduced in Romania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia and Poland. g) The successful re-unification of Germany under Helmut Kohl in 1990. The nations united to form the republic of Germany. This was a clear indicator of the joint commitment of the superpowers in maintaining their spheres of influence had been weakened. h) The dissolution of the Warsaw Pact. With the fall of communism in Eastern Europe, the Warsaw pact started to fall apart. In November 1990, the Paris Charter was signed, effectively dissolving the Warsaw Pact. i) The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990. Several of its states seceded. Russia officially became an aid receiver instead of an aid donor. j) The signing of the START Treaty in 1991 by Gorbachev and George Bush, after the Strategic Arms Reduction Talks. The treaty officially ended the cold war. Destruction of weapons of mass destruction commenced. **Effects of the cold war** a. It brought immense divisions and conflict to people of the same continent, region and countries based on pro-west or pro-east ideologies. E.g. in Angola b. Oppressive regimes found their way to power, supported by either the west or the east. c. There was untold suffering to the people. Disease, poverty and refugee camps became common sights. d. There was destruction of the economy as infrastructure was destroyed by war. As communist systems failed to produce wealth, unemployment and poverty set in. e. It created mistrust and suspicion amongst nations. f. It led to arms race. It led to militarization of regions and countries. g. It led to political crises and actual war e.g. civil wars in Korea and Vietnam, the Suez Canal crisis of 1956 and the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. h. It threatened international peace and security. Insecurity in the world increased. i. Led to formation of Non-Aligned Movement by third world countries. j. Led to formation of economic alliances and military alliances like NATO (1949) and the Warsaw pact (1955). COMECON (1949) and the European Economic Union (1957. k. The cold war led to development in science and technology. The war Stimulated space science/space race. **Effects of the end of Cold War on Africa.** a) Some African countries that were formerly socialist are in problems following collapse of USSR in 1990. E.g. Somalia, Ethiopia, Angola and Mozambique. b) The end of the cold war has led to the removal of financial aid and military support for some African countries. Military or food aid is no longer rushed to countries experiencing problems because there is no more superpower competition. E.g failure to prevent the Rwanda genocide and failure to assist in the Somali crisis and the current Al- shabaab crisis. c) There was emergence of new world political and economic order. The end of war has led to emergence of USA as a world policeman over developing nations. The countries must act according to USA wishes or suffer lack of aid and receive harassment from superpowers. d) It has led to marginalization of Africa in international affairs. e) There are conditionalties for getting aid from the western powers. Besides, Africa no longer has a choice of donors who comprise mainly of western world countries. COOPERATION IN AFRICA Cooperation in Africa refers to the way African countries relate to each other. It is stimulated by the economic exploitation and political domination by Western Eu rope. The cooperation has been in form of; a) Pan-African Movement b) Organization of African Unity (African Union) c) The East African Community d) Economic Community of Western African States. e) Common Markets for Eastern and Southern Africa. **PAN-AFRICANISM.** **Meaning of Pan-Africanism.** Pan means all and Africa refers to the continent. Africanism refers to those of African Origin.Pan-Africanism is a belief in the uniqueness and spiritual Unity of Black people acknowledging their right to self determination.It is a movement aimed at unifying all the people of African descent in the world. It stands for economic, political and social advancement for all peoples of African descent throughout the world. **Origin and Development of pan-Africanism.** The movement has roots in the trans-Atlantic slave trade that took place between 15th and 19th c. the trade was responsible for the dispersal of black people all over the world. The suffering the slaves underwent made them become conscious of their colour and origin. The Africans viewed themselves as having a common destiny. Even those who remained in Africa were later subjected to the colonial experience including forced labour, land alienation, taxation, poor wages, discrimination corporal punishment rape and murder.The movement first started as the Pan Black Movement for the American and Caribbean black only. Several African Americans wanted to uplift the lives of fellow Africans in USA and in Africa. They included Martin Delaney, Alexander Cromwell, Bishop James Johnson, Wilmot Blyden and Bishop Turner. The leading pan -Africanists in America were Booker T Washington, Marcus Moziah Garvey, Dr. William Edward Burghardt Du Bois and George Padmore.The pioneer African pan-Africanists included Kwegyir Aggrey from Gold Coast, Wilmot Blyden from Liberia, Kwame Nkrumah from Ghana and Leopold Sedar Senghor.The Pan Black Movements enlisted all blacks worldwide. It sometimes was called Pan Negro Movement and was pitted against the evils of racism.Pan Black Movement gave birth to Pan-African Movement, which had its first meeting in London in 1900 attended by 32 delegates, drawn from USA, Africa, Canada, West Indies and Britain.Sylvester Williams, a lawyer from Trinidad, coined the term Pan-Africanism. By 1920, an all-African idea had been developed.The first pan- African congress for Africans was held in Manchester England in 1945, also attended by Jomo Kenyatta. **Causes of pan-Africanism.** **a) The Trans-Atlantic slave trade.**It took place between 15th and 18th centuries. Africans who were forced into slavery in America during this period suffered a lot under the white people. The Africans in Diaspora, through humiliation and sadness realized they had a common destiny. **b) Colonization of Africa**. The division of Africa into 50 colonies separated some communities. It also put together various people of different history and culture. The divide and rule tactics of colonialists brought deep divisions among same communities. The Africans realized later on that there was need to find a common ground to bring about change. **c) The need to correct the negative ideas about Africa and Africans held by** **Europeans.** The whites held a popular belief that Africans belonged to an inferior race without ability to run their own affairs. **d**) Pan-Africanism was a fight against Racism-Africans were despised and ridiculed on the ground of colour and hair texture. e) The evolution of leadership cadre of educated class of Africans- leaders like Kwame Nkrumah, Sedar Senghor, Jomo Kenyatta and Blyden wanted to prove that Africans were a civilized people with a rich history and culture. f) European missionaries had discriminated against the Africans /Africans formed independent churches contributing to the rise of Pan -Africanism**.** **Objectives of the Pan-African movement** a) To unite all the peoples of African origin in the struggle for emancipation from social discrimination and colonial rule. b) To challenge the ideology of white supremacy on which European colonization was based. c) To improve the African living conditions in the Diaspora and in the African continent. d) To secure democratic rights for all African peoples e.g. right to vote. Form political associations etc. e) To restore the dignity of the black people and liberate them from the bondage of slavery. f) To create a forum through which protests against European colonization and racial discrimination could be channeled. g) To find better ways of establishing better relations between the Europeans and Africans on the one hand and among Africans on the other hand. h) To appeal to missions and humanitarians to protect Africans against colonial aggression and exploitation as well as land alienation. i) To fight neo-colonialism **LEADING PAN-AFRICANISTS.** **1. Marcus Garvey (1887-1940)** He was born on 17th August 1887 in the West Indies island of Jamaica to a family offreed slaves. The fact that Marcus was very dark is what shaped his philosophy of Pan Africanism. While a young man, he witnessed great European and Mullato discrimination on account of his complexion.He arrived in USA in 1916 after widely travelling in south and Central America and Britain. While in England, he was greatly encouraged by Mohammed Duse to lead the peoples of African descent all over the world in the struggle for liberation.He developed the Pan-African philosophy in USA through which he sought to make Africans take pride in their blackness and cultural heritage. He founded the Negro Empire in New York in 1920. He organized a black convention in 1924 in New York during which he launched the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) whose HQs were to be at Harlem, New York. UNIA had the following objectives; ~ To create universal fraternity among the Black Race. ~ To assist uplift the civilization of African communities. ~ To establish a central nation for the black race. ~ To establish academies for African children. ~ To promote African cultures. Garvey founded a Journal The Negro World and the African Orthodox Church under a black Patriarch or chief Bishop and a Black Madonna as the symbol of his church. He advocated for the return to Africa by the Africans. To Garvey, freedom was to be gained through economic empowerment of Africans. To this end, he mobilized African Americans to contribute funds to establish black businesses like the Black Starline Shopping Company. The project however collapsed due to mismanagement. He was arrested, tried and convicted of fraud (collecting funds unlawfully) and imprisoned for five years. He was deported to his home country Jamaica after two years in Jail where he died in 1940.He is credited for succeeding in mobilizing Africans to take pride in their cultures and complexion. **2. Booker T. Washington.(1856-1915)** He was born in 1856 in USA to a poor slave family. He acquired a university degree in Agriculture at Hampton Institute.He is credited for promoting African Education. He started a model institute for training blacks in agricultural and industrial skills (the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama).Unfortunately, Washington adopted a policy of cooperation with the government as a means of winning acceptance by the European community. To him, Africans ought to gain wealth in order to attain equal status with Europeans and end racial discrimination.He began the National Negro Business League with the help of a European Andrew Carnegie.He died in 1915. **3. Dr. William Edward Burghardt Du Bois.** He was born in great Barrington, Massachusetts, USA on 23rd February 1868. He was the first black to receive a PHD Degree and become a professor of History, Economics and Sociology. He was also a renowned journalist.He greatly disagreed with Booker T. Washingtons policy of accommodation and cooperation. In 1905, he established the Niagara Movement to protest against racial discrimination. In 1900, he was one of the founder members of the National Association for the advancement of Coloured Peoples (NAACP) an association that championed for the struggle for Negroes civil rights in America.He prepared the pan-African conferences that were held between 1900 and 1945 to fight against slavery, colonial exploitation and repression of Af rican peoples. He was the chairman of the Manchester Conference of 1945..In 1961, he relocated to Ghana where he became a citizen, on invitation of Nkrumah. He died in 1963 in Ghana. **THE PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESSES (1900-1945)** a) The 1st pan-African conference, London, 1900. It was held at the Westminster Townhall from 23rd to 25th July with 32 participants from Africa, USA, Canada and West Indies. The conference was sponsored by a Trinidad lawyer Henry Sylvester Williams who coined the term Pan-Africanism. The conference marked the entry of Du Bois into Pan Africanism where he made his famous statement The problem of the 20th c is the problem of colourline. **Objectives of the conference.** ~ To unite people of African origin in all parts of the world. ~ To appeal for the end of European colonization and exploitation of Africa. ~ To look for ways of establishing better relations between the Caucasian and African races. ~ To initiate a movement for securing the full rights for all Africans in and outside Africa and promote the economic rights. ~ To appeal to missionaries and philanthropists in Britain to protect Africans against aggression by colonizers. **Conference Agenda** ~ Human Rights Violation against blacks in South Africa. ~ Living conditions of blacks in different parts of the world. ~ Racial discrimination against Africans all over the world. The conference sent a Memorandum to the Queen of England demanding respect for the rights of Black People especially in the British Empire. b) The 2nd Pan-African Conference, Paris, 1919. The conference coincided with the Paris Peace conference. The conference was convened by William Du bois who had been sent to Paris by NAACP to investigate the allegations that African American troops stationed in France during world war I experienced racial discrimination and to represent the interest of the black peoples at the Paris peace conference. The conference made the following recommendations; ~ The need for international laws to protect Black people. ~ African land to be held in trust for Africans. ~ The prevention of exploitation of African nations by foreign companies. ~ The rights of Africans to be educated. ~ That slavery and capital punishment were to be abolished. ~ The right of Africans to participate in their government as fast as their development permitted. c) The 3rd Pan-African Conference 1921. The conference was held in three sessions in London, Brussels and Paris. The London session was attended by 41 Africans, 35 American coloureds, 7 West Indies and 24 Africans living in Europe at that time. It was patronaged by Du Bois. The conference demanded for the establishment of political organizations among the suppressed blacks. It emphasized international and interracial harmony and democracy. d) The 4th mPan-African congress (London and Lisbon 1923.) it reiterated earlier resolutions and also demanded that black people be treated like human beings. e) The 5th Pan-African Conference, New York 1927. It was mainly attended by African Americans and was partly sponsored by European Philanthropists. It discussed the attitude of the communists towards pan-Africanism. f) The 6th Pan African conference, Manchester 1945.it coincided with the end of the World War II. It was convened by the Pan African Federation which had been formed in 1944 by 13 organizations representing students welfare and political groupings. Leaders of the federation were George Padmore, Ras Makonnen (Ethiopia). C.L.R Wallace Johnson and Jomo Kenyatta. The conference was greatly inspired by the liberation of Ethiopia in 1941 and Clause three of the Atla ntic Charter (1941) (that USA and British governments would respect the right of all people to choose the form of government under which to live) which Winston Churchill claimed was not applicable to the Africans.The conference was convened on 15th oct. 1945 and was attended by 90 delegates who included Du Bois(West Indies), Nkrumah(Ghana), Kenyatta(kenya), Padmore(Trinidad), peter Abrahams(south Africa), Ras Makonnen(Ethiopia) , Magnus Williams representing Azikiwa Nnamdi (Nigeria), Obafemi Owolowo(Nigeria) and Kamuzu Banda (Malawi) and 11 observer nations Du bois chaired the conference while Nkrumah and Padmore were joint secretaries. **Uniqueness of the conference.** a) The conference was mainly organized by Africans from the continent unlike earlier ones which were organized by the Africans in Diaspora. The only exceptions were W.E.B Du Bois and Padmore. b) Representatives of white philanthropists were absent. Neither did they finance the conference. c) Many African trade unions were represented. These included the trade Unions from Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Ghana and Gambia. Most of West Indies was also represented. **Key Resolution of the Manchester Conference** a. Africans should concentrate on winning political power through non-violent means e.g strikes and boycotts. b. African intellectuals should play an important role in mobilizing the masses to fight for political liberation. Pursuant to the conference resolutions, Kwame Nkrumah established the West African National Secretariat (WANS) on 15th December 1945 in England to act as a regional body for Pan African Federation, promote unity in West Africa. WANS published a newsletter, The New African, whose main aim was to inspire the youth in Africa to resist imperialism. **Why the 1945 Manchester (Pan-African) Congress was a landmark in the history of** **Africa.** a) For the first time leading African representatives in the continent attended e.g. Jomo Kenyatta, Kwame Nkrumah, Kamuzu Banda, Haile Sellasie etc. on coming back , they all adopted radical nationalistic demands for independen ce of their states. b) It was the first congress that strongly condemned European colonization of Africa and demanded the autonomy and liberty of African states. c) The congress was instrumental in granting of independence to Ghana in 1957 and to Egypt soon after. d) It set the pace for organization of similar conferences in the African continent like; the 1958 All African Congress and the 1960 Tunis-Pan African Peoples Conference. e) During the conference, the solidarity and unity among Africans began to develop and paved way to the formation of Organization of African Unity. f) It marked the establishment of the movements activities in Africa. Why pan-African movement was not active in Africa before 1945 a) There was lack of adequate African representation in the movement before 1945. Africans in the movement were few and were staying outside Africa as political exiles or students. b) Colonial authorities could not allow Africans to organize a movement that was against their policies. Such movements were outlawed. c) The divide and rule policy used by the Europeans made it impossible for Africans to communicate and cooperate. d) Africans in each colony were mainly concerned with issues that affected them directly e.g. Land alienation, forced labour and taxation. e) The only Countries that were independent (Liberia and Ethiopia) could not champion pan-Africanism since they had their own internal problems and paid little attention to international matters e.g. Ethiopia and Liberia. f) Lack of venue to hold meetings on the African soil since the colonial government would not have allowed such meetings. g) Poor state of transport and communication at the time did not permit fast spread of Pan-Africanism. h) Few people were educated and only a minority in Africa had higher education hence there was widespread illiteracy and ignorance. i) Africans were too poor to contribute to pan-African efforts. **The role of Kwame Nkrumah in Pan-Africanism.** a) He participated in the 1945 Manchester Conference as the secretary during which he proposed that delegates go back to their countries and spearhead the nationaliststruggle for political independence. b) He established the West African National Secretariat (WANS) in England to coordinated pan African federation activities in West Africa and promote pan Africanism. c) He founded the Convention Peoples Party (CPP) in 1949which led Ghana to Independence in 1957. d) As president of Ghana, Nkrumah inspired many African countries to struggle for political independence, and the black civil rights movement in the USA to fight for their rights. e) In 1958, he hosted the first pan-African conference of independent states in Accra which pledged to assist fellow Africans to fight for political independence. f) He funded nationalists in other countries e.g. Ghana and Algeria. g) He supported other African leaders who faced political threats from their former colonial masters. For example he assisted the Guinean leader, Sekou Toure , with Loans following the withdrawal of French support to the country after independence h) He championed trade unionism in Africa as a means of promoting pan-Africanism. During the Manchester conference as a joint secretary with George Padmore, he allowed participation of trade Unions from Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Ghana and Gambia. i) He participated in convening various pan-African conferences that led to the formation of O.A.U, an association of independent African states. NB- it is most probably because of his fight against western domination that Nkrumah was eventually overthrown in 1966 in a military coup that forced him into exile. He died on 27th April 1972 in Bucharest, Romania, where he had gone to seek treatment for cancer. **Reasons why the pan-African movement became active in Africa after 1945.** a) World War II strengthened nationalism in the continent. The Africans quest for political independence received a boost with support from UNO, USA and USSR. b) The 1945 Pan-African Conference in Manchester, brought many African elites together. They later inspired their colleagues back home to join the movement. c) The attainment of political independence in India in 1947 and Burma (now Myanmar) in 1948 encouraged many nationalists in Africa. d) The slowing down of the pan0africanism activities in America during the cold war period activated the same in Africa. USA tried to control activities of people like Padmore who had links with USSR. e) The attainment of independence by Ghana in 1957 inspired other African nations to focus on the liberation of their respective countries rather than fight for the betterment of fellow Africans outside the continent. **Performance of the Pan-African Movement..** **Achievements of Pan-Africanism.** a) The movement created political awareness among people of African origin and a sense of deep concern for suffering of blacks all over the world. b) It put in place Steps towards the restoration of status and dignity to the African people, which had been eroded by slave trade, colonialism and racism. c) The movement provided an important forum where the people of African origin could discuss their problems. It promoted brotherhood among Africans. d) The movement led to the Development of the spirit of solidarity among the African people when dealing with issues that concern the continent. e) It laid the basis for the Formation of OAU, which later became the African Union (AU). f) The movement enabled African leaders to be more committed to African issues. For example the black caucus in the USA played an important role in pressurizing the US congress to take drastic measures against the Apartheid regime in South Africa. g) The movement laid the foundation for the interest in research on African culture, history, literature, music, religion, medicine, art, etc. this empowered Africans by enabling them to understand the status quo. h) The movement played an important role in the advancement of African nationalism by encouraging peoples of African origin to take pride in their ancestry and demand their rights. i) The movement condemned Mussolinis attempt to colonize Ethiopia in 1935 by organizing protests in major towns like New York, London, Brussels and Paris. **Challenges encountered by the pan African movement.** a) Many European groups fought the activities of the pan Africanists. The fact that Marcus Garvey was arrested, tried and convicted of fraud (collecting funds unlawfully) and imprisoned for five years is a clear manifestation of this. b) It was difficult for the Africans to participate in African affairs since majority of Africans were still under colonialism. c) Due to lack of economic empowerment and lack of education, many of the pan African projects did not succeed. The Marcus Garvey project for instance collapsed due to mismanagement. d) Illiteracy and ignorance amongst some people of African origin hindered them from offering constructive support. e) The movement was restricted to the African continent after independence in 1960s. ***The absence of African-Americans in the continents affairs dealt a big to its progress.*** f) Division among Africans after independence e.g. Radical and the conservative leaders and between the francophone and the Anglophone countries. g) The European powers domination of the international media was used to water down the importance of pan-Africans by spreading negative propaganda. h) Some of the pan-African leaders could not agree on the best strategy of uplifting the welfare of the African origin peoples. i) The deep economic connection between colonies and the mother countries hindered any meaningful cooperation. j) Lack of venues to hold conferences in Africa especially before 1957 meant that the movement could not take root in Africa quickly. The far-away venues were inconveniencing. The Pan-African movement activities after 1950. Despite the challenges mentioned, the movement was still active in Africa after 1950 as manifested in the political developments that took place in the 1950s and 1960s. **The following conferences were convened during that period.** 1) The 1st Conference of Independent African States, Accra, Ghana April 1958. In attendance were the eight independent African states of Ghana, Egypt, Morocco, Ethiopia, Liberia, Tunisia Sudan and Libya. the delegates pledged to assist fellow African countries who were fighting for political independence.. 2) The All-African Peoples conference, (Accra De. 1958) the conference was attended by freedom fighters and trade unionists from all over Africa. It was chaired by Tom Mboya of Kenya The conferences main resolution was to use all means to acquire political independence and to encourage unity between the African leaders. 3) The All-African Peoples Conference, Tunis, January 1960. It strengthened the desire for unity among African states. 4) The 2nd Conference of Independent African States, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, June 1960. The conference was the forerunner to the formation of a continental Body, OAU. The conference exposed sharp division among African states over the situation in Congo, where Patrice Lumumba was facing problems with his former colonial masters. 5) The Brazzaville Conference December 1960 Attended exclusively by the 12 francophone conservative African states, the conference emphasized the need to respect international Frontiers and noninterference in the internal affairs of any African state. They promised political support for Mauritania in her boundary disputes with morocco. 6) The Casablanca conference, January 1961. It was a reaction to the resolutions of the Brazzaville conference by the radicals who supported Morocco in her dispute with Mauritania. They advocated for the removal of foreign troops in Congo. 7) The Monrovia conference, May 1961. It attracted both moderates and conservatives and aimed at uniting the antagonistic groups. The conference emphasized the absolute equality of all states. The conference succeeded in uniting the hostile groups through the undertaking of two crucial events; ~ The Algerian Referendum of 1961, which passed that the Algerians wanted political independence from France. ~ The situation in Congo stabilized after 1961. **ORGANIZATION OF AFRICAN UNITY (OAU)** **What was the OAU?** It was an association of independent African states that existed between 1963 and 2002, when it was renamed the African Union (AU) **Origin and development of OAU.** It was formed as a climax of a series of pan- Africanism congresses up to 1963. In January 1961, several African independent states, i.e. Egypt, Ghana, morocco, Libya and Algeria, met in Casablanca and pledged to help Patrice Lumumba of Congo against the secessionist Tsombe. In May 1961, another group of African states, i.e. Liberia, Tunisia and Togo met in Monrovia and agreed to work in unity to solve the Congo crisis. In august 1961, a bigger group made up of former French colonies met in Brazzaville to find a solution to the Congo crisis.In 1963, the regional groupings compromised and joined with others to form one organization. In May 1963, foreign ministers of 32 independent African states met in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to prepare the agenda for the heads of state meeting.The heads of states met under chair of Emperor Haile Selassie and gave birth to OAU, with Selassie as its first chairperson. Its membership grew from 32 at the time of its inception to 54 ***NB; when the Saharan Arab Democratic Republic was admitted to the OAU in 1984,*** ***Morocco withdrew since she claimed that SADR was part of her territory.*** **The Charter of OAU.** **Objectives of the OAU.** a) To provide African countries it a permanent organization through which they could discuss issues affecting them and lay strategies for solving them. b) To provide identity for the newly independent countries of Africa in a world dominated and controlled by the white race. c) To co-ordinate and assist in the speedy decolonization of the rest of Africa. d) To improve the living standards and conditions of African people as a group and as individual states. e) To help in the Defence of the independence of African states and maintenance of the sovereignty of these countries. f) To promote cooperation among the African states in economic, social and political fields so as to improve living standards. g) To promote and enhance African solidarity and unity. h) To support world, peace organizations like the UN and the Non-Aligned Movement. i) To promote peaceful settlement of disputes. j) To promote non-interference in the internal matters of member states. **The fundamental principles of OAU as outlined in the charter.** a) Recognition of the sovereign equality of member states. b) Non-interference in the internal affairs of member countries. c) Respect for the sovereign and territorial integrity of each country and its inalienable right to independent existence. d) Peaceful settlement of disputes. e) Condemnation of political assassination or any form of subversion by one country in another member country. f) Dedication to the emancipation of territories under colonial rule. g) Adherence to the principle of non-alignment. **The structure of the former OAU.** The OAU charter borrowed heavily from that of the United Nations Organization. The only difference is that no member of OAU enjoys veto powers. All members have equal privileges and vote. The charter outlined the structure of OAU as follows;The Assembly of Heads of State and Government. This was the supreme organ of OAU meeting once a year to discuss specific urgent matters and electing a chairperson every year. A two-third majority vote was used to decide critical issues.The Council of Ministers. It was made up of all foreign ministers of OAU member states and met twice a year to prepare agenda for the meeting of heads of state and government. It implemented decisions passed by heads and prepared the OAU budget.The General Secretariat. Headed by the secretary general elected by the Assembly of Heads of state, it offered the administrative services to the organization on daily basis. The past secretaries were Kifle Wodajo of Ethiopia (1963- 1964), Diallo Telli Boubaker of Guinea (1964-1972), Nzo Ekangaki of Cameroon (1972- 1974), Eteki Mboumoua of Cameroon (1974-1978), Edem Kodjo of Togo (1978-1983), Peter Onu of Nigeria (1983-1985), Ide Oumarou of Niger(1985-1989). The last was Salim Ahmed Salim from Tanzania.The Commission of Mediation, Conciliation and Arbitration. It was charged with the task of settling disputes involving members. It had membership of 21 states and served for a term of five years.Specialized Agencies. The OAU also comprised specialized agencies and committees that handled the technical business of the organization. E.g. the OAU Liberation Committee-to co-ordinate activities of liberation movements. The Economic and Social Commission, the Commission on Education, Science and Culture, the Defence Commission, the Supreme Council of Sports Etc. **Achievements of OAU.** a) It offered solution to border disputes between member states like Kenya vs. Somalia, Ethiopia vs. Somalia, Libya vs. Chad, morocco vs. Algeria, Chad vs. Nigeria and the Rwanda Burundi conflict. b) The OAU achieved total liberation of African countries, with South Africa being the last one. It offered military support to the nationalistic struggles in Mozambique, Angola, Rhodesia, Namibia and South Africa. c) It condemned human rights violation in countries like Namibia and South Africa. It encouraged economic sanctions against the apartheid regime of South Africa. d) Through the OAU, African governments were able to speak with one voice on matters affecting Africa and they even attempted to formulate a common foreign policy. e) It provided a forum for discussing Africas common problems like desertific ation, foreign interference, and dependency and at the same time sought for solutions to the problems. f) The organization embarked on common economic ventures for Africa. For example creation of the African Development Bank (ADB) which represented the collective contribution by all Africans towards emancipation of Africans from economic backwardness. g) It encouraged construction of roads and railways to link different regions. E.g. Tanzam, the Great North Road and the Trans-African Highway. This improved economic co-operation between member states. h) It created a cultural identity for African countries sports and the All -African Games, which provided Africans with the opportunity to meet and socialize. i) Through its refugee agency, it addressed itself to the refugee problem in the continent. E.g. refugees from countries like Rwanda, Burundi, Chad, Gambia, Ethiopia, Sudan and Somalia have been assisted. j) It was instrumental in the formation of regional organizations like ECOWAS, SADDC and COMESA. **Problems that faced OAU during its operation.** a) Differences in economic development levels and in history of member states militated against co-operation. b) Ideological differences among member states, especially during the Cold war period, hampered the operations of the OAU. c) It lacked sufficient funds to carry out its work efficiently. The members were poor given that all of them were third world countries. d) The problem of sovereignty. Many countries disregarded the OAU resolutions in favour of their sovereignty and national interests. e) It lacked an effective machinery to effect its decisions. It also lacked a standing army to implement and effect its resolutions hence the term Toothless Bulldog coined by Gadaffi to refer to it. f) Loyalty to other organizations. OAU members also belonged to other organizations like ECOWAS, COMESA, The Arab League etc; the interests of these organizations were not always in accord with those of the OAU. g) The colonial legacy. Many problems arising from past colonial policies have rocked the organization. E.g. The land issue in Zimbabwe. There is also the problem of NeoColonialism in trade. h) Interference by the big powers. This has caused dismay to the organization. i) Emergence of dictators like Amin Dada of Uganda, Bakassa Jean Bedel of Central African Republic, And Mobutu of Congo. j) Civil strife in various countries remained unresolved for a long time. E.g in Sudan, Rwanda, Ethiopia, Nigeria. This made cooperation difficult. **THE AFRICAN UNION** **Origin of the African Union.** On 9th September 1999, the Heads of State and Government met in Libya and made the Sirte Declaration calling for the establishment of an African Union and a pan-African parliament.On 29th may 2000, the document for the formation of African Union and Pan- African Parliament was adopted by the joint sitting of legal experts and parliamentarians. On 2nd June 2000, heads of state and government meeting in Lome, Togo adopted the Constitutive Act of the African Union drafted by the council of ministers. The AU was born in 2002, at a Summit held in Durban, South Africa, where the first Assembly of Heads of State of African Union was convened. **Differences between the former Organization of African Unity and the present** **African Union.** a) Unlike the O.A.U, the A.U challenges the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of member states. It allows for intervention whenever a member state experiences conflict or widespread human rights violation. b) O.A.U was like an Association of African Heads of State, but A.U is like a Union of African Peoples. Increased participation of all African people is manifested in the proposed Pan-African Parliament and an economic, social and cultural council. c) Unlike the O.A.U the African Union has an accountability mechanism. An African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) has been developed as a means through which countries can be held accountable on matters of security, development, stability and cooperation. d) Unlike the O.A.U, the A.U has a broader development plan for Africa e.g. through the New Partnership for Africas Development-NEPAD whose main objectives include to promote accelerated growth and sustainable development, to eradicate the widespread poverty in the continent and to halt the marginalization of Africa in the globalization process. e) Unlike OAU, AU presupposes the establishment of a security council and the African Court of Justice with law enforcement powers(A standing military) **The AU Charter.** **Objectives of AU.** a) To accelerate the political, social and economic integration of the continent. b) To promote and defend the African common positions on issues of interest. c) To defend the independence and territorial integrity of African states and maintain the sovereignty of these countries. d) To promote democratic principles and institutions, popular participation and good governance. e) To establish the necessary conditions which enable the continent to play its rightful role in the global economy and in international negotiations. f) To promote cooperation among the African states in economic, social and political fields so as to improve living standards. g) To achieve and enhance greater African solidarity and unity. h) To promote peace, security and stability in the continent through peaceful settlement of disputes. i) To advance the development of the continent by promoting research in all fields, particularly in science and technology. j) To encourage international cooperation, taking into account the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. k) To work with relevant international partners in the eradication of preventable diseases and promotion o good health on the continent. **The structure of African Union** The AU charter outlined the structure of AU as follows; ***1. The Assembly***. This is the supreme organ of AU meeting once a year to elect a chairperson and determine the common policies of the union, consider requests for admission, monitor implementation of policies and decisions, appoint and terminate the judges of the court of Justice among other functions.(students to make additions) Decisions are either by consensus or by two-thirds majority vote. ***2. The Executive Council.***It is made up of Foreign Ministers or the authorities designated by the member states.

Such functions can be delegated to specialized technical committees. ***3. The Commission/Secretariat***. Comprises a chairperson, deputy chairperson and eight commissioners and staff members. It deals with the administrative issues and implements decisions of the Union. ***4. The Permanent Representatives Committee***. It comprises the Ambassadors to the AU. Its main responsibility to prepare for the executive council and run the association daily. It seats permanently in Addis Ababa. ***5.

Tanzania and Uganda accused Kenya of acquiring the lions share of benefits from the community. Kenyan industries for example were protected more by the common external tariffs. b) Personality differences. This was between individual leaders of the three countries, making it more difficult for them to hold meetings. c) Ideological differences. Each of the three countries pursued different economies. Kenya followed capitalism and Tanzania socialism. Uganda had a mixed economy. d) Political instability in Uganda. The coup dtat, which overthrew Milton Obote, undermined the unity that was desired for the organization. Nyerere for example refused to recognize Amin as the president of Uganda. e) National pride and interests. National interests were given more priority than the regional interests were. E.g Tanzania favoured railway transport while Kenya favoured road transport. f) Boundary closures .Tanzania closed its common border with Kenya in 1977, thereby halting the community activities. There was also boundary closure between Tanzania and Uganda during the war between the two in 1978. g) Financial constraints resulting from failure by member states to remit funds to meet the organizations needs. h) The use of different currencies by the three nations made transaction difficult. **The Rebirth of the East African Community-2001** **Reasons that led to the rebirth of the East African Community in 1996.** a) There was need to maintain a common market for the member states in order to promote balanced economic cooperation. b) There was increasing need to provide common services to the three Member states especially in the areas of transport and communication as well as research. c) There was a strong desire to promote political cooperation between the three countries in a world that was becoming a global village. d) There was need to facilitate free movement of people in the region. e) A greater lesson had been learnt following the great losses and costs incurred by the East African countries following the collapse of the Community in 1977. **Milestones in the Formation of the East African Community-2001.** a) The full East African cooperation was started on March 14, 1996, when the Secretariat of the Permanent Tripartite Commission was launched at the headquarters of EAC in Arusha, Tanzania. Ambassador Francis Muthaura was appointed the first secretary general. b) On 19th November 1996, the agreement for the establishment of the East African Business Council was signed in Nairobi. f) On 29th April 1997, the second summit of heads of state was held in Arusha.

A regional strategy was developed for control of the lake hyacinth. i) On 22nd January 1999, the third summit met in Arusha and directed the Permanent Tripartite Commission to complete the treaty making process by 30th July 1999. j) The treaty establishing the East African Community-2001 was signed on 30th November 1999 in Arusha by the three heads of state. **The structure of the New East African Community.** In the november30, 1999 treaty, the following organs were established to coordinate the activities and the direction of the community. 1. The Summit of Heads of State. It had the responsibility of giving direction towards realization of the goals and objectives of the community. It was the communitys supreme organ, consisting of the three heads of state with the chair being rotational. 2. The Council of Ministers. The main decision making organ of the heads of governments of the member states. It comprised the designated ministers from member states. 3. The Coordinating Committee.

These are committees created by the council on recommendation of the respective coordinating committee. 5. The East African Legislative Assembly. It provides a democratic forum for debate. It is also a watchdog of the activities of the community. It is a 30 -member assembly whose members are drawn from the member state. 6. The Secretariat. Based in Arusha, it carried out the day-to-day administrative duties of the community. 7. The Court of justice of East Africa. This was the highest appellate court in the region. **Other autonomous institutions established by the Council include;** ~ The East African Development Bank (EADB). ~ Lake Victoria Fisheries Organization (LVFO) ~ Inter-University Council for East Africa (IUCEA) **Challenges that have faced the EAC-2001.** a) Suspicion still exists over perceived dominance of Kenya in the community affairs. b) Despite signing the treaty in 1999, Tanzania customs are still taxing Kenyan products. c) Increased cross-border smuggling. The freedom of movement within the region sometimes results in smuggling of illegal arms and spread of crime and insecurity. E.g. the smuggling of a vehicle belonging to Kenyas Chief of Staff, General Joseph Kibwana to Tanzania in 2004. d) Cattle rustling across the borders. This is common on the Kenya Uganda border with the Pokot and Karamojong attacking each other e) Arrest of Kenyan fishermen on Lake Victoria by either Tanzania or Ugandan policemen/navy accusing them of fishing in their waters. f) Membership to other regional bodies e.g. COMESA, SADDC. This complicates the work of the EAC. g) The recent wrangles between Kenya and Uganda over ownership of Migingo Island. Although this problem was resolved by Uganda conceding Kenyas ownership of the Island, it raised tension between the two countries. h) The use of different currencies by the three nations has made transaction difficult. i) Political squabbles in the individual countries slow down the progress of the community j) Individual national interests have slowed down the implementation of the activities of the community the deep-seated differences between the member states over the proposed taxes on imports from countries outside the region. **Achievements of the East African Community-2001.** a) It has boosted movement of citizens within the three member states of East Africa. An East African passport has been introduced. b) It has provided a forum for the East African Leaders to discuss issues harmoniously. c) It has facilitated the improvement and expansion of transport and communication networks between the three East African countries. d) Tariffs for industrial goods produced in East Africa have been reduced. e) Investment procedures have been eased to enable all citizens to invest more easily within the community. f) It has enhanced cooperation of the civil society leading to formation of the Law Society of East Africa and the Business Council of East Africa. g) The community has promoted trade among member states by encouraging citizensto conduct trade in all the countries. **THE ECONOMIC COMMUNITY OF WEST AFRICAN STATES.** **Formation of ECOWAS.** This is a regional group comprising of 15 West African countries.The treaty establishing ECOWAS was signed in Lagos, Nigeria on 28thmay 1975 by Gambia, Mali, Cape Verde, Burkina Faso, Niger, Benin, Togo, Cote dIvoire, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Senegal, Guinea Bissau, Nigeria and Guinea. **Objectives of ECOWAS.** a) To provide economic co-operation among West African states in specialized fields such as transport, communication, agriculture, trade industry etc. b) To liberalize trade between member states. c) To improve relations between the member states. d) To improve living standards of people in the member states. e) To create a customs union in the region. f) To promote industrial development among member states. g) To promote cultural interaction among the member states. **Organization of ECOWAS.** The following are organs that were established to coordinate the activities and the direction of ECOWAS. 1.

For example, Nigeria provides her oil to member states at a reduced price. c) The community has enabled regular meeting of the Heads of State to tackle problems facing the region. d) Socio-cultural exchanges within the West African region have promoted good relations among the people. e) Improvement has been realized in transport, trade, agriculture and communication. f) The organization has resolved political problems facing member states. g) ECOWAS has enabled citizens of member states to move freely from one country to another through waiver of visa requirements. h) There has been progress in education through the establishment of a Joint examination Syllabus for West African States. Challenges that ECOWAS has faced in its operation. a) Political instability in member states. Countries like Nigeria and Ghana have witnessed Military coups. Civil wars have been fought in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Ivory Coast. These have been a hindrance to cooperation. b) Nationalistic issues. Most member states give priority to their own domestic issues at the expense of the organization. c) Language barrier. Countries in West Africa inherited the languages of their former colonial masters. The problem in communication has hindered the efficient operation of the organization. d) Infrastructural problems. The state of roads, railway and communication linkages are poor. This has hampered economic progress of member states. e) Ideological differences. The leaders of the member states view each other with suspicion and mistrust due to differences in ideologies. f) Lack of uniform currency. Each country has its own currency. This creates a problem of rates of exchange thus hindering trade. g) Foreign interference.

For example, presidents Museveni of Uganda and El Bashir of Sudan were involved in disagreements in 2004 over rebel activities. c) Boundary conflicts. This has been witnessed between Ethiopia and Eritrea. d) Civil wars. Wars have been witnessed in DRC, Uganda, Sudan, Rwanda and Burundi. Such inevitable wars undermine the operations of the common markets. e) Constant quarrels among member states over trading rights. For example Kenya and Egypt quarreled over duty-free cement dumped in Kenya by Egypt, on which Kenya wanted to charge duty. f) Poor transport between member states. This hampers movement of goods in the region. g) Pulling out of Tanzania and Namibia. The two founder members have opted for the South African Development Cooperation (SADC). This has undermined COMESA. h) Some members undermine their neighbours. For example Uganda and Rwanda have been accused of participating in the civil wars in the DRC. **Reasons why Africa has been unable to achieve full economic integration.** a) The problem of poor transport and communication has impeded flow of trade. This has affected all previous and existing economic groupings. b) There is uneven distribution of resources in Africa. Some countries are endowed with strategic natural resources like oil and fertile soils while others are impoverished with no resources. This hinders integration. c) All member states of economic co-operations suffer from budgetary deficit and balance of payment problems. They therefore lack adequate foreign exchange required for international trade. d) There is constant political interference by unenlightened leaders e) There has been rivalry among member states of trading co-operations. f) Africa has had a poor share from world trade as prices on world market are dictated by industrialized countries. g) The advent of multi-partism after the end of the cold war and the subsequent introduction of Structural Adjustment Programmes has crippled the performance of economic integration in Africa. h) Inability of member states to interfere in the internal affairs of other states even where there is need. i) Failure by member states to contribute fully to the organizations. j) The colonial legacy. Many member states still depend heavily on the West for manufactured goods, machinery, technology, donations and ideas. **NATIONAL PHILOSPHIES (KENYA)** **AFRICAN SOCIALISM** **Meaning and origin of African Socialism.** The Sessional paper No.10 of 1965 defines African socialism as an African political, economic system that is positively African, and capable of incorporating useful and compatible techniques from whatever source. African socialism was born out of the desire by our leaders to create a new society, different from the colonial society and which embraced equity devoid of racism, oppression and other social injustices. Main features that characterized African socialism in Kenya. a) Political Democracy where all people are politically free and equal b) Various forms of ownership of wealth. E.g. free enterprise allowing private ownership of property, nationalization policy for key industries, partnership with private sector c) Mutual social responsibility. That the spirit of service and not greed for personal gain motivate Kenyans. d) A range of control to ensure that property is used in mutual interests of society and its members. e) Progressive taxation to ensure an equitable distribution of wealth and income. f) Diffusion of ownership to avoid concentration of economic power on a few people in the society. **Achievements of African socialism as a National Philosophy.** a) It has led to promotion of democratic process in governance. Multi-partism has been established in Kenya due to African socialism policies. Kenya has also witnessed the growth of the civil society. b) Since the philosophy is built on African traditions, it has promoted African cultures Kenya pursued African values consistent with her traditions. c) The philosophy has promoted national unity and coexistence among Kenyan communities. d) There has been a greater effort to achieve fairness and justice through progressive taxation and a range of other controls. The government has tried to achieve fair distribution of resources through the activities of the District Focus for Rural Development. e) The philosophy led to establishment of cooperative societies in Kenya. This has promoted social and economic development in Kenya. f) African socialism has promoted agricultural development through the land tenure system that was undertaken to ensure settlement of the landless in settlement schemes like Bura. g) Social development in education and health has been achieved.

The second Lancaster conference in 1962 negotiated a framework for self government. The third and final conference in 1963 resulted in the drafting and adoption of Kenya's first independent Constitution by the British Parliament. The 1963 constitution marked the end of colonial rule and transformed the colony into a dominion.It established a parliamentary system with executive powers vested in a cabinet headed by a Prime Minister.The Constitution was changed in 1964 and Kenya became a republic and the executive becamepresidential.

In 1997, Parliament passed the Constitution of Kenya Review Act that set the
pace for comprehensive constitutional reforms. The Constitution of Kenya Review Commission (CKRC) was established to provide civic education, seek public input and prepare a constitution). In 2005, after many years of struggle, the constitution was ultimately rejected by Kenyans at the constitutional referendum because of disagreements amongst various stakeholders.
28 February 2008The National Accord and Reconciliation Act (NARA) signed by
President Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga put in place arrangement for a new process to finalize the long awaited constitution of Kenya
In 2008 the Constitution of Kenya Review Act 2008 was passed and a Committee of Experts (CoE) was established as the main technical constitutional review organ to drive the process. The CoE was chaired by Nzamba Kitonga, the deputy chair was Ms Atsango Chesoni, other members were Ms Njoki Ndung'u, Mr Otiende Amolo,Mr Abdirashid Hussein Mr Bobby Mkangi Professor Christina Murray (South Africa) Dr Chaloka Beyani (Zambia) and Dr Frederick Ssempebwav (Uganda.

By 23rd February 2010. CoE had submitted the final of constitution to the
Parliamentary Select Committee.
On 4th august 2010 Kenya held a Constitutional Referendum where the new
constitution was overwhelmingly endorsed.
On 28th august 2010, the new constitution was promulgated and became operational making Kenya the first independent African state to depart from the independence constitution. **MULTI-PARTY DEMOCRACY IN KENYA SINCE 1991.** **Factors that led to the development of multi-party democracy in Kenya after 1991** a) International pressure from multilateral and bilateral donors. The western donors took advantage of the collapse of the Soviet Union to set the stringiest conditionalties for aid on the government, for democratic reforms. b) Disunity in KANU. There was pressure from individuals who had been expelled from KANU without political alternatives. c) Existence of people who were ready to push democratic agenda ahead. This included the civil society, the lawyers and intellectuals. E.g the Law Society of Kenya led by Paul Muite and Gitobu Imanyara put pressure on the government for reforms. d) Success of multi-party in other African countries. In Zambia for example, Chilubas Movement for Multiparty Democracy defeated Kaundas United National Independence Party. e) Pressure from the church. Several church leaders, among them Alexander Muge, Bishop Henry Okullu and Rev. Timothy Njoya called upon the government to create an en environment in which Kenyans could participate in governance. f) Massive rigging of the elections. The most notorious of all was the 1988 general elections, which were marred with widespread rigging. g) The developments in Eastern Europe. Due to Gorbachevs liberal reforms, one party dictatorship in Eastern Europe was replaced by regimes that were more liberal. h) Rampant corruption in particular, embezzlement and misappropriation of public funds and grabbing of public assets. Those who criticized were punished through detention, arbitrary arrests and other forms of intimidation. i) Repeal of section 2A of the constitution in December 1991 Role played by political parties in government and national building in Kenya. a) The party that gunners majority of seats and votes forms the government either alone or in coalition with other parties. b) Political parties influence government affairs and development through participation in legislation process. c) Political parties through the elected members of parliament decide on national development policies and development projects. d) Political parties provide exemplary leadership founded on freedom , justice, fair play and African socialism. e) Opposition parties provide a system of scrutinizing government expenditure through public accounts committee and public investment committee. f) Opposition parties make the government more accountable to the people through constant criticism. g) Opposition parties provide checks and balances to abuse and misuse of powers and privileges by those in the government. **Challenges of multi-party democracy in Kenya.** a) Since many politicians and senior government officials were not ready for Multipartism, they often incited their supporters to kick out opposition supporters from certain regions. This has been common in the Rift Valley region. b) The executive arm and the ruling party have many a times misused the members of the civil service to frustrate the opposition. In case of flawed elections, the provincial administration has always been used in rigging. c) Many of the parties formed failed to attain a national outlook. They mainly were tribal based. d) The multi party democracy has been hampered with defection of greedy politicians who become preys to bribes. This has weakened some parties. e) The former KANU for a long time retained control of the government machinery,,(the police force, the radio and television.) these were utilized for the advantage of KANU for al long time. f) There has been a problem of lack of funding from the government. Most of the political parties have been unable to sustain competition for political power due to inadequate funds. g) Interference by the international community in the running of the country. Some members of the diplomatic community openly side with certain political parties. h) Many political parties have been embroiled in wrangles. For example the Orange Democratic Movement has been bedevilled with a number of desertions due to wrangles between Ruto and his supporters and Raila Odinga. Ford Kenya has split into New Ford Kenya and Ford Kenya due to wrangles between Eugene Wamalwa and Moses Wetangula. **Identify the disadvantages of multiparty system.** a) Multipartism tends to divide the people on tribal, regional and sectarian line. b) It tends to sharpen the struggle for personality and group dominance rather than policy implementation. c) Multipartism is a foreign system, which does not conform to the aspirations of independent Africa. d) It encourages the politics of destabilization. e) Political statements deadlocks on debates and tensions become too common. f) Decisions take too long to be made and implemented. g) Encourages use of violence in a state since opposition party members will be regarded as traitors by the government. The government will be regarded as oppressors by the opposition. **ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS AND CHALLENGES** **Economic challenges that have faced Kenya since independence.** a) Stagnation of investment in the first years of independence due to massive transfer of capita from the country by the white settlers. The government faced the challenge of cultivating investor confidence. b) The problem of landlessness among many Africans whose arable land had been alienated. There was an urgent need for redistribution. c) Serious economic disparity in the country with the former white highlands having adequate provision of water, electricity and roads while the rest lacked enough of the same. d) Overpopulation in urban areas as result of rural-urban migration, putting facilities under pressure and creating unemployment. e) Problem of control of economy by the Europeans prior to independence and after independence. E.g. farm ownership and key industries. f) Lack of qualified manpower to run the technical sectors of the economy. These were issues that were addressed by session paper number 10 of 1965. **Types of landholding in Kenya.** Land tenure refers to the terms and conditions under which land is acquired, used or transferred At independence the type of landholding in Kenya was mainly communal, where land belonged to the whole community. Access to land was open every member of a social group. Community elders, clan heads or kings were empowered to control and give advice on land use.Land alienation during the colonial period transformed land into a commodity th at could be disinherited from an individual.***Such colonial land policies*** ***leading to alienation of African land resulted in the following;*** a) Widespread landlessness as Africans lost ancestral lands. b) Reduction in land available to Africans leading to land pressure as population increased. c) Deterioration of the quality of land due to fragmentation. d) Overstocking because of limited land, leading to soil erosion. e) Displacement of pastoral and agricultural communities, leading to problems such as famine and livestock diseases. f) Disintegration of social and cultural institutions in the reserves due to ethnic boundaries being fixed, thus separating African communities. The Mau Mau wars which were a consequent of the bitterness arising from land alienation resulted in a number of land reforms under the Swynnerton Plan of 1954. The plan put in place a programmee for land consolidation, adjudication and registration. This was whet the Kenya government inherited at independence. Land Adjudication: - verification of individual or group rights to land within a given area. Land consolidation: - merging of fragmented land into single economic units. Land registration: - recording of rights to land and the consequent issuance of a title deed.The post-colonial land holding system in Kenya.The land tenure system in Kenya after independence was categorized as private or modern, communal or customary, public or state and open accessPrivate land; comprised of 6% of the total land areaGovernment- owned; former crown land, comprised 20% of the land area. It included the national parks, government or public forests, alienated (land acquired from customary land owners by government for own use or private development) and unlalienated land (land that has not been leased or allocated by the government).Trust land comprised 64% of the total land area as at 1990. This comprised the former native areas and was awaiting small holder registration to transform it into private tenure system.Land ownership in Kenya has been a source of bitter conflict as manifested in the post election violence after the 2007 elections. The historical injustices in Kenya have always been related to land. In 2010, land ownership in Kenya was classified as follows under the new constitution. a) Public land b) Community land c) Private land a) Public land Public land is the land held by the central or local government. It consists of; ~ Land not set aside for any purpose (unlalienated land). ~ Land set aside for public utility use or land that is occupied by the State organ as lessee. ~ land transferred to the State by way of sale, reversion or surrender; ~ Land to which no individual or community ownership is traceable. ~ Land which no heir can be identified. ~ All minerals and mineral ores. ~ government forests, game reserves, water catchment areas, national parks, government animal sanctuaries, and specially protected areas; ~ All roads and thoroughfares. ~ All rivers, lakes and other water bodies. ~ The territorial sea, the exclusive economic zone and the sea bed. ~ The continental shelf. ~ All land between the high and low water marks. ~ Any other land declared to be public land by an Act of Parliament. **Community land** Community land is land which is implied as owned by a group of people on the basis of customary norms, not through formal registration. It consists of: ~ Land registered in the name of group representatives. ~ Land transferred to a specific community through a legal process. ~ Any other land declared to be community land by an Act of Parliament. ~ land that is held, managed or used by specific communities as community forests, grazing areas or shrines; ~ Ancestral lands and lands traditionally occupied by hunter gatherer communities; ~ Land held as trust land by the county governments, but not including any public land held in trust by the county government. **Private land** Private land is land (and houses and buildings) held under registered entitlement (freehold or leasehold). It consists of: ~ Registered land held by any person under freehold tenure. ~ Land held by any person under leasehold tenure. ~ Any other land declared private land under an Act of Parliament. Note: ~ Landholding by non-citizens is allowed only through lease for a period not exceeding ninety-nine years. ~ A corporate body, for the purpose of land ownership can only be recognized as a citizen if it is wholly owned by one or more citizens. ~ Property held in trust will only be recognized as being held by a citizen if all the beneficial interest of the trust is held by the persons who are citizens. **Land policies since independence.** **Two type of programme that characterized land reforms exercise that commenced** **in 1963 in Kenya were;** 1) Transfer of land from European large scale farmers to Africans. 2) Land consolidation and registration in which the government purchased several farms from the Europeans and sub-divided them among African holders. **In the former European farms, the government established settlement schemes as** **follows;** 1) The Million Acre Scheme which was began in 1963 and involved settling African families on 13.5 hectares each. 2) The Harambee Scheme started in 1969, involved settling families on 16.25 hectares each. 3) The Haraka Scheme where squatters were settled in small plots of land in Central, Coast, Eastern and Rift Valley Provinces. 4) Shirika Scheme started in 1971 to settle the landless and unemployed on the former European lands. Under this scheme, the individual farmers would own a small plot each while the rest of the farm would be managed by a cooperative. This scheme did not succeed since people wished to have their own pieces of land.However, these schemes failed to adequately solve the problems of landlessness in the country. A few politically- connected people acquired large tracts of land, most of which remained underutilized. Some of the schemes are located in areas of harsh climatic conditions and are unviable without irrigation.Several commissions have addressed land issues in Kenya. For example, in 2001, President Moi appointed the Njonjo Commission to investigate the main problems of land ownership and distribution in Kenya. In 2003, the NARC government set up the Ndungu Commission on land. Its Recommendations are yet to be implemented.By 1983, 29 districts in Kenya had benefitted from Land adjudication and registration, a process which began in the 1950s in Central Kenya then spread to other parts of the country after 1963. **Benefits of the land reforms in Kenya.** a) Farmers could use their land title deeds to get loans from banks in order to expand farming on their land. b) Land titles enabled people to purchase land with confidence. No one would alienate them from their land. c) The reforms enabled thousands of landless people to own land. d) Dairy and cash crop production increased. **Land ownership by non-citizens.** A non-citizen can only own land in the country on the basis of leasehold tenure not exceeding 99 years. **Principles that govern utilization of land in Kenya.** a) Equitable access to land. All members of the society must have equal access to land since it is an important resource. b) Transparent and cost effective administration of land. State institutions should be given powers and responsibilities of ensuring transparent and accountable administration of land. c) Elimination of gender discrimination. in line with protection of human rights, for all, discrimination against women on issues of land ownership and access to land need be eliminated. d) Sustainable and productive management of land resources. Since land is an economic resource, it should be managed well to ensure maximum productivity. e) Sound conservation and protection of ecologically sensitive areas. Conservation measures like prohibiting settlement and agricultural activities in water catchment areas and zoning of forest lands to protect them from further degradation. f) Encouragement of communities to settle land disputes. This should happen as long as they are consistent with the constitution. Ways in which the Kenya government has solved land related problems since independence. a) The problems related to Communal Land ownership have been solved through land demarcation and adjudication by the government. This saw the conversion from traditional system of land ownership to modern freeload tenure. b) Landlessness was solved through creation of resettlement schemes. Large-scale farms and former European farms were divided into smaller ones and given to the landless. E.g Mwea Tebere, Bura, Shirika etc. c) The government has put marginal lands to more productive use through establishment of irrigation schemes and drainage schemes. d) The government removed restriction of movements from the reserves that were created by the colonial government. This decongested the reserves and gave chance to arable farming. e) At independence, the t government embarked on land consolidation policy through which scattered plots were put into one holding. f) The government also embarked on land reclamation measure to bring previously unused land to productive use. g) The Government has established the National Land Commission which manages public land **The National Land Commission.** **Functions of the National Land Commission.** a) It manages public land on behalf of the national and county governments. b) It advises the national government on a comprehensive programme for land registration throughout the country. c) It investigates present and past historical injustices, as a result of a complaint or on its on initiative, and recommends appropriate action. d) It has a duty to encourage the use of traditional methods of dispute resolution in land conflicts. e) It recommends the national land policy to the national government. f) It assesses tax on land and premiums on immovable property in any area designated by law. g) It monitors land use planning throughout the country. **Development in agriculture since independence.** After independence, the government encouraged small scale farming of coffee and tea as opposed to large scale farming that existed during the colonial period. The Agricultural development corporation (ADC) was set up to manage large scale farms that were established by the government in western, Rift Valley and Coast provinces. Such farms specialize in production of seeds to be used by farmers for planting. They also specialize in production of high quality dairy and beef cattle in Kenya.The government also established the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI) in Muguga near Kikuyu to assist in identifying good crop breeds for different types of soils. Irrigation Schemes were expanded in the marginal areas. For example. Mea (central), Bura (coast), Ahero (Nyanza) and Perkerra (central).The government created development authorities to effectively manage water catchment areas. For example, TARDA, KVDA and LBDA. **Challenges facing Kenyas agricultural sector.** a) The 1984 drought and famine in various parts of the country occasioning supply of relief food to the affected regions. b) Rapid increase in population which is not at pace with the rate of increase in agricultural production. c) From the late 1970s, the world market prices of agricultural commodities fell drastically yet the inputs remained expensive. d) Corruption and mismanagement of the cooperatives leading to meager earnings for key cash crops in Kenya. e) Grabbing of research land by corrupt government officials has affected the operations of the research institutes. f) The problem of poor infrastructure in the country sometimes discourages farmers especially during the rainy season. g) Ethnic clashes in Molo in 1991-1992, Likoni in 1997 and Mahi Mahiu in 2005 plus the post election violence in 2008 discouraged farmers from intense farming due to insecurity. h) Poor technology hassled to low yields. People in Kenya still rely on natural rains for agriculture instead of using irrigation. Others use primitive traditional tools in cultivation. i) The problem of pests that destroy the farm yields before reaching the factory. j) Competition from COMESA member states and from the more industrialized powers such as the European Union and USA often frustrate Kenyan farmers. **Industrial developments in Kenya since independence.** Kenyas industrial sector was shaped by the long period of colonization. At independence, industry was characterized by dominance of foreign capital and dominance of the agricultural sector. **Factors that facilitated industrial development in Kenya since the colonial era.** a) The existence of raw materials, such as trona (soda ash) at lake Magadi, fluorspar at Kerio Valley and lime in several parts of the country. b) Existence of fish resource from numerous water bodies has promoted the fishprocessing industry. c) Existence of expansive forests which provide timber needed in the furniture industry. d) The rich scenary, e.g Mt. Kenya, Mt. Elgon, the Aberdares and rich wildlife have promoted the tourism industry. e) Kenyas rivers have enough water for production of HEP. f) Increase in population since the colonial period ensured supply of labour and the market required for industries to flourish. g) The transport and communication infrastructure have provided the necessary link between the material producing zones , industries and markets.. h) Existence of rich agricultural lands producing raw materials such as coffee, tea, sugarcane, sisal and fruits **Measures taken by the Kenyan government to promote industrial development since** **independence.** a) The government engaged on decentralization programmes to spur development in new areas. Industries were established in rural areas. b) The government has embarked on the programmes of funding new markets for industrial products. c) Infrastructure was improved through establishment of more roads, railways and improvement of water transport, to-transport raw materials labour and goods. d) Power concerns were addressed through construction of the Seven Forks Dam to supplement power from neighboring Uganda. e) Favourable government policies have been put in place to attract investors. f) The government has put in place measures to reduce imports in order to protect local infant industries. E.g discriminative tariffs were introduced. g) The government encouraged and assisted in giving capital for industrial development through development of the co-operative movement, funding through Industrial and Commercial Development Corporation(ICDC) , the Development Finance Company of Kenya.(DFCK) and the Industrial Development Bank. h) The government has ensured political stability in the country, which is an important factor in industrial development. **Factors that have hindered industrial development in Kenya.** a) The problem of multi nationals whose interests do not favour Kenyas progress. Multi-national co-operation repatriate capital to their own home countries b) There is shortage of strategic raw materials e.g. petroleum, diamond. Cotton for textile industries. Many industrial companies use imported raw materials. c) Foreigners, who pass policies not friendly to the country, hold managerial positions in industries. d) Mismanagement of major industries and lack of transparency I parastatals. e) Over concentration of industries in few areas leading to negligence of other areas. It also has led to related problems of industrial concentration like the social ills. f) Competition from the industrialized nations who dominate the market and produce high quality goods. g) Poverty limits industrialization. A poor population means a small domestic market thus hindering industrial development. h) Products are produced with low technology hence small quantities. Further reading on industrial development should be done with reference to evolving world book 4 pages 162-164 **Social Development and challenges since independence.** **Education.** To solve the problems inherited at independence in the education sector (poor quality education and poor facilities available the Kenya children), the government undertook the following measures; a) Constitutional amendments were made in 1975 to give Kiswahili a respectable position in the country. b) Several educational Commissions were set up to streamline education. c) The Harambee strategy was employed to expand educational facilities.

The ministry of education established structures right from the district level to national level to help in fulfilling the national objectives of education.Several education commissions were set up to streamline education. The harambee strategy was employed to expand education facilities. Many schools were built.In 1980, the government took over the responsibility of providing pre-primary education.In the 1990s, the government in collaboration with UNICEF launched a programme to promote early childhood education.By 1998, the total number of students in the various universities was over 40,000.In 1969, the ministry of education took over the administration of primary education from local government, this witnessed increased enrolment.In 1978, the government introduced the school milk programme to encourage children especially in drought prone areas to go to school.The programme stalled in 1990 but had achieved higher enrolment in schools.The Ministry of education launched school feeding programme, targeting dry areas.In 2002, the NARC government introduced the Free Primary Education policy.Further reading be done from evolving world on Elementary education and Tertiary education in Kenya. **Health.** Measures taken to improve the health sector in postcolonial Kenya. a) The ministry of health was created to oversee health matters. b) Expansion of health facilities through harambee and donor funds e.g. Nyanza Provincial hospital (Russian Hospital) c) Many health training institutions were started e.g. Medical training colleges d) Improvement in hygiene through provision of piped water. e) Establishment of several research institutions on human diseases e.g. KEMRI f) Provision of more basic education in order to uplift hygiene standards in the society. g) Provision of free anti-retroviral and anti-malaria drugs. **Major challenges facing the Health sector in Kenya.** a) Increase in population has posed major challenges to the government in the provision of healthcare services to its citizens.

Patrice Lumumba (Prime Minister) of Congolese National Movement Party and Joseph Kasavubu of Abako Party (Head of State) formed a fragile coalition government. The two leaders differed ideologically.The period between 1960 and 196 witnessed power struggle between Kasavubu and Lumumba on one side and Secessionist Moise Tsombe of Katanga and Albert Kalonji of Kasai on the other side. In 1961, Patrice Lumumba was assassinated. This led to withdrawal of his supporters from government. In 1961, the UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjld perished in a plane crash in the Congo while attempting to bring a peaceful political solution to the Congo crisis.In 1964, a new constitution was formulated as a way of solving the political problems that plagued Zaire soon after independence. Zaire became a federal state with a federal president and separate assemblies for each state.On 23rd November 1965, Joseph Desire Mobutu organized a bloodless military coup, which removed the civilian government of president Kasavubu and Prime Minister Sylvester Kimba.In November 1965, Mobutu took over power after a bloodless coup.In the same year, , Mobutu banned all political parties. He suspended the constitution and parliament. He abolished the federal system and local assemblies and reduced the number of provinces to eight.In 1967, He formed the Peoples Revolution Movement (MPR), which became theonly legal party in Congo. He in effect-replaced democracy with one-party dictatorship leaned to the west during the cold war.1n 1970, Mobutu declared himself the life president of Congo, after winning the presidential election.In 1971, he outlawed the use of European names for people, places and physical features as a way of removing colonial legacy. The country was renamed Zaire. His own name changed to Mobutu Sese Seko. Leopoldville was renamed Kinshasa.In 1973, Mobutu announced the nationalization of all foreign enterprises. In 1977-1978, the Shaba Rebellion broke out mainly after an attack by the Congolese National Liberation Front from their base in Angola. The Belgian troops were called to silence the rebels.In 1990 and 1991, multiparty activists stepped up pressure for change. In September 1991, dissatisfied soldiers and civilians held demonstrations, which led to death of 117 people. In 1997, Laurent Kabila successfully ousted Mobutu, assisted by Rwanda and Uganda. Mobutu fled to exile in Morocco where he died. In January 2001, Laurent Kabila was assassinated in mysterious circumstances. His son took over power.In April 2002, through a powersharing agreement presided over by Thabo Mbeki and a UN envoy, Mustapha Niasse, a government of national unity was formed. **Economic developments in DRC since independence.** The political chaos inn DRC up to 1965 did not favour any economic progress. During the reign of the Belgians in Congo, no viable economic development was initiated. Little development was done in infrastructure in order to facilitate transportation of raw materials to the ports of Matadi etc.At independence, the country was faced with the problems of shortage of manpower, skills and entrepreneurship.When Mobutu took over, there was some slight economic progress. Transport and communication improved as more roads and railway were constructed to link major towns of Matadi, Kinshasa, Lubumbashi and Kisangani. Navigation on the river Congo was improved, which led go expansion of mining and agricultural sectors.Mining of diamonds resumed after the turbulent years and resulted in reduced inflation.Mobutu encouraged foreign investment in the mining sector.However, the fall of world copper prices in 1970s again began to derail the economic growth in DRC.In the 70s, the government nationalized foreign firms employed inexperienced people to control them.In 197, Mobutu enacted a law that placed state finances and expenditure under him, thus reducing the flow of capital to the provinces.In 1976, he encouraged mutual cooperation between private firms and the government in the extraction of minerals such as copper, oil, diamond, cobalt and manganese in a bid to create employment opportunities.He also emphasized on diversification of the economy which greatly boosted food production.The entertainment industry has also grown to become an invisible export through repatriation of profits back home by the foreign based musicians. Energy supply has been increased through the construction of the Luga hydro-electric power station. **Social developments and challenges in DRC since independence.** Between 1961 and 1965, there was little improvement in the field of health and education in DRC due to constant power struggles and civil strife.When Mobutu took over in 1965, he strived to expand schools and universities. For example, by 1970, he had established three universities. He also improved on the provision of health facilities. He banned religious education in schools. In 1971, attempted to revive indigenous culture through the Authenticity programme that involved renaming places that had foreign names.In the 1970s, in an effort to improve the welfare of citizens, a national insurance programme was established. Mobutu also gave prominence to music as part of the Congolese curriculum.The independent government supported sporting activities through construction of stadium and other sporting facilities.However, living standards in Zaire continued to fall as health services, water and sanitation continued to be inadequate. The steady rise in population was without a commensurate growth of social services. In summary, the common challenges socially were illiteracy, extreme poverty, famine and diseases caused by civil strife, massive unemployment, refugee problem and religious persecutions by Mobutu. **Political challenges that the democratic republic of Congo has faced since** **independence.** a) There was general lack of preparedness of the people for independence. Foreigners controlled even the army and the police. b) The assassination of Patrice Lumumba in 1961, which plunged the country into the Congo crisis. c) Political instability/military coup dtat. In November 1965, Mobutu organized a military coup. In 1997, Kabila ousted Mobutu d) Ethnic differences/tribal clashes/civil wars, which split the country into two parts at independence. One controlled by Lumumba and another controlled by Kasavubu. e) The problem of Secession. Secessionist movement of the Katanga region (Shaba) led by Tsombe and Kasai under Kilonji seceded. f) Foreign interference/intrigues. Belgium constantly interfered and intervened in Zaires internal matters. France and Britain also began to interfere from 1977 during the cold war period. g) Mutinies in the army were common. **Economic challenges that Democratic Republic Of Congo (D.R.C) faced in 1970s.** a) Corruption and mismanagement of the economy. Mobutu was the richest president in the world while Zairians became the poorest people in the world. b) Inflation due to power struggle and corruption. By 1980, the countrys currency was not worthy the paper on which it was printed. c) There was also a problem of heavy foreign debt. The country was unable to service her debts. By 1980, Zaire had become the worlds third biggest debtor nation. d) There was a standstill in the economic activities and disruption of railway transport due to civil wars in the country and neighbouring Angola. e) The period also witnessed fall in world copper prices and increase in oil prices f) Lack of a sound economic policy **TANZANIA.** Political developments in Tanzania since independence.At the time of independence, Tanzania comprised of two countries. I.e. Tanganyika and Zanzibar. Tanzania became independent in 1961 under Julius Nyerere while Zanzibar became independent in 1963 under the Sultan Seyyid Abdullah.In 1962, Tanzania became a one-party state with a republican constitution and an executive president. Tanganyika African National Union (TANU) became the sole political party.On 22ndApril 1964, Julius Nyerere and Sheikh Abeid Karume signed a union document. Nyerere became the executive head of state and government while Karume as the first vice-president.In 1967, president Nyerere adopted the ideology of African Socialism through the Arusha Declaration In 1972, the first Vice- president, Sheikh Abeid Karume, was assassinated. Aboud Jumbe succeeded him as Zanzibars president and the vice-president of Tanzania.In 1973, the capital of Tanzania was transferred from Dar-es-Salam to Dodoma.In 1967, the ruling party in the Mainland Tanganyika-TANU and Afro-Shirazi Party in Zanzibar merged to form Chama cha Mapinduzi (CCM). Nyerere became the party chairman.In 1978-1979, president Idi Amin invaded Tanzania to annex the Kagera Province, which he claimed, was a Ugandan territory. Nyerere swiftly repulsed Ugandan soldiers.In 1985, Nyerere retired as president and was replaced by Ali Hassan Mwinyi who had succeeded Jumbe as head of Zanzibar and Tanzanias first vice president.In May 1992, Tanzania adopted multi-partism after the 8th constitutional Amendment Act.In 1995, Tanzania conducted the first multi-party election, where Benjamin Mkapa was elected president. **Social developments in Tanzania since independence.** The major highlight in the social development of an independent Tanzania was an attempt to create a classless society with e reduced gap, between the rich and the poor. Through the Ujamaa policy, president Nyerere tried to turn Tanzania into a country that had political and economic policies based on African traditions and aspirations. Under the policy, communal farms were created.Primary education was made free in 1977 and became compulsory in 1978.At present, Tanzania boasts of the highest number of literate persons in eastern Africa.Upto late 1980s, government provided free health services, until the introduction of the Structural Adjustment Programmes by the Donor community.Kiswahili was adopted as a national language and a major medium of instruction in schools. **Economic developments in Tanzania since independence.** The main landmark in Tanzanias economic the launch of Ujamaa as a development policy in 1967 during the Arusha declaration..Ujamaa was meant to transform production in rural areas and to increase labour productivity and even allow specialization introduction.The government nationalized all the major means of production and essential services in order to empower people economically.The Tanzam railway was constructed with the help of china and was completed in 1975.In 1976, cooperative societies were abolished and replaced with centralized corporations owned by the government.The period between 1979 and 1985 witnessed economic stagnation in Tanzania as investors pulled out of the country.The collapse of the East African Community also affected the economy of the country.After 1985, Nyereres economic policies began to be challenged openly by scholars and economistsWhen president Mwinyi took over, he undertook to reform the economy of Tanzania. **Political challenges that Tanzania has faced since independence.** a) There was an Army mutiny in Tanzania 1964, which threatened her political stability. b) The socialism policy (The Arusha Declaration) received stiff opposition from many both internally and externally. People favoured capitalism. c) The assassination of Abeid Karume in 1972 and the resignation of Aboud Jumbe in 1984 appeared to threaten the unity of the two members of the Union Declaration. d) The invasion of Tanzania by Uganda in 1978.and the consequent war with Uganda was costly to the country. It also threatened her cooperation with neighbours. e) There was an escalation of corruption among leading members of Tanzanias political elite, including claims that President Hassan Mwinyi and his family capitalized on liberalization to amass a lot of wealth. f) the re-introduction of multiparty democracy tended to awaken tribalism and regionalism although this problem was contained. **Social problems, which Tanzania faced since independence.** a) Famine and shortage of health services as the government adopted the Structural Adjustment Policies of IMF. b) Poverty and a general drop in living standards as production dropped due to socialism. c) Lack of social amenities, like clean water in rural areas. d) High illiteracy level. e) Unemployment. In Tanzania, industries closed after the Arusha declaration. f) Population explosion which outstripped the countrys resources g) Terrorism. Tanzania was under terrorist attacks in 1997 targeting the American embassy. h) Environmental pollution. i) Over-crowding in urban areas. **Economic challenges.** a) In the early years of independence, the proliferation of African enterprises led to the widening of the gap between the rich and the poor. b) Under the ujamaa policy, the forced villagization programme did not satisfy communities in areas with favourable climate. They therefore strongly resisted it. c) There was rampant rural-urban migration affecting mainly able-bodied men who felt exploited by the new system of production. d) The abolition of cooperatives was met with stiff resistance with many farmers cutting down heir production. Other producers reverted to the black market. e) The Tanzanian shilling became unstable due to price fluctuations of some commodities. f) There was shortage of donor funds caused by the nationalization programme that was opposed by many donor countries. g) The collapse of the East African Community in 1977 denied Tanzania a large common market for her goods **SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL CHALLENGES IN AFRICA IN** **GENERAL.** **Political challenges that have faced African countries since independence** a) The political systems that were inherited from the colonial governments seemed to be unworkable in many independent African states. b) Sharp ideological difference arose among the pioneer leaders of African states. Such differences internally exploded into civil strife in countries like Mozambique, Angola and DRC. c) The cold war had diverstating effects on Africa. it left many African nations divided and locked in border conflicts that continue up to date. d) Political instability was quite common in African states. Coups dtat and military takeover was witnessed in Somalia, Zaire, Nigeria, Chad etc Human rights were violated with the rise of dictatorship. e) There were strained relations between African leaders caused by personal and ideological differences. Some ended in border closure, which greatly undermined international cooperation. f) Many national interests in Africa countries have been in conflict with global and continental interests. Nigeria and Zimbabwe, for example had to be expelled from the Commonwealth of Nations for alleged disregard of human rights and personal property. g) Neo-colonialism. Most countries retain the colonial structures of parliament although they have difficulties in sustaining them. Multinational peacekeeping forces are still common in Africa, many African leaders inherited the divide and rule colonial strategy that precipitates anarchy. h) The existence of different ethnic groups has contributed to ethnic wars as witnessed in Rwanda, Burundi, Sudan, Nigeria and Kenya. i) Most African government seemed ill prepared and in experienced in administration. This resulted in rise of rebel movements, as was the case of Mozambique and Angola. **economic challenges facing independent African states today.** a) Unemployment and socio-economic inequalities both among individuals and between regions are common in may African nations. b) Overdependence on primary exports. The African economy is an extractive one rather than a manufacturing economy. Many countries depend on agriculture and foreign nations for manufactured goods. c) World trade terms are not fair for African nations. Africa countries find themselves trading with former colonial powers that give low prices fort raw material from Africa and charge high process for the manufactured goods. d) There has been the problem of unfavourable climatic conditions. This has curtailed food production, particularly among agricultural communities. e) Population pressure has led to overstretching of social services. There is a high dependency ratio since the population is largely youthful and unemployed. f) Poor economic planning. Some economic policies have destabilized the economies. For the Ujamaa policy in Tanzania, the expelling of foreign investors in Uganda and the massive printing of money in Zaire. g) The tough conditions given by donor agencies have sometimes led to deterioration of social welfare. Retrenchment for example was a key prescription of the Structural Adjustment Programme. h) Corruption and embezzlement of public funds is common in African countries. There is also general lack of transparency among many leaders. Social challenges that have faced African states since independence. a) Inaccessibility to clean water by majority of the people. Most African peoples rely on water fetched from sometimes contaminated streams across long distances. b) The challenge of HIV/AIDS pandemic. This has had a toll on productive members of the society. c) Poor housing facilities.. in urban areas, majority of the population live in slums without sanitation facilities. d) The challenge of high population growth rate. This affects the quality of the services provided by governments. e) Language problem. Language development and use has been a challenge in Africa. In many countries, conflict tends to arise over the language to adopt- local or the inherited one. f) Religious differences. This challenge has been the main cause of the splitting of the once largest country in Africa-Sudan in 2011. The predominantly Christian southern Sudan has become the youngest African state thanks to religious differences. g) Absence of practical systems of education. Many countries rely on theoretical education with little emphasis in technical skills. **DEVOLVED GOVERNMENT.** Devolution This refers to the granting of power from the central government to a lower level such as a region or a local level.A Devolved Government is a system of government where there is a transfer or allocation of authority from a central government to a regional government.

The legislature was to comprise two chambers (the Senate or upper House and the Lower House. However after independence in 1963, the Kenyatta Government began plans to scuttle the system of government. By December 1964, KANU and KADU merged to form a unitary government of the republic of Kenya. The enactment of the new constitution on 27th August 2010 reintroduced the concept of devolution in Kenya.Kenya is divided into 47 Counties each governed by A County Governor with theassistance of the County Executive Assembly.

Age limit is 25 years for the representatives and 35 years for the president.During the lection year party primaries are held between March and May to choose presidential candidates.Party conventions are held in July to confirm winners of the primary elections.Each presidential candidate picks a running mate who becomes the vice president if the presidential candidate wins.Presidential elections are held after every 4 years (on 2nd November).The election of the president is determined indirectly by the Electoral College that comprises electors appointed by each state. When a presidential candidate wins the popular vote in a state, he automatically wins all the states electors.Direct elections are done through popular vote of one man one vote. Senators and members of the House of Representatives are elected after every two years. Senators serve for a period of six years with a third of them elected after every 2 years. Members of the House of Representatives serve for four years and are elected on party basis.Each state elects 2 representatives to the senate making a total of 100 senators for the 50 states.Election of House of Representatives is on the basis of state population. For example, the largest state, California has 52 representatives while Wyoming, the smallest has only one representative.State governors and legislators are elected after every 4 years. **Features of the US system of government.** a) The federal government is made up of the legislature, executive and the judiciary. b) Each state within the federal government functions as a republic and enjoys equal status. c) The federal government and independent states share the power of formulating and enforcing laws. d) All states have their constitutions but they should not be contradicting to the Federal Constitution. e) The Supreme Court interprets the constitution. f) The congress (Senate and the House of Representatives) is the body entrusted with legislative powers. g) Senate membership is through popular vote of two members from each state for a period of six years. h) The House of Representatives members are elected for a period of two years based on the size of the population.

{"text": "1 ### **FORM ONE HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT ** **INTRODUCTION TO HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT ** **THE MEANING OF HISTORY ** History is an account of events that took place in the past. History may also be defined as a branch of knowledge which deals with past events of human beings and their response to their environment over the years.R.G Collingwood, in his book The Idea of History (OUP 1994) defined history as a science concerned with the human actions in the past, pursued by interpretation of evidence for the sake of Human self knowledge. That history is a science because it involves finding out things about the past Humankind. For example, the origin of Man, why he was a toolmaker, why he domesticated animals and plants. These are questions that provoke scientific curiosity. The three definitions of History from the above are: History is the past of anything; of earth, man, disease or animals History is a branch of knowledge dealing with past events History is a science concerned with past Human actions Since History at secondary level is specifically concerned with the past as it relates to humankind and his response to his environment over the years, the working definition of history is therefore; History is the endless story of mankinds actions and events affecting him in the past. Closely related to the term history is the term PREHISTORY .Prehistory refers to the unrecorded history- those activities that humans engaged in before writing and drawing were invented as ways of storing information. Such information is gained from songs, myths, stories, artifacts, fossils and the language of a people. A historical event needs to have recorded evidence in order to be referred to as a historical fact Characteristics of historical events They must have evidence. Historical information must be written or unwritten. Historical events only concern man. Historical events dwell mainly on the past happenings. Historical events must contain elements of truth. The study of humankinds past can be classified systematically into three; Social history- dealing with the traditions, values and cultural practices of a people Economic history; dealing with the means of livelihood of a people, such as hunting, gathering, agriculture and trade. Political history; dealing with the control system in a society, for example maintenance of law and order, leadership and security. ----- 2 ### **THE MEANING OF GOVERNMENT ** Derived from the verb govern, government means to exercise authority over. To rule or control. Or having power to direct or conduct the policies and public affairs of a country or an institution. In our study, the term government refers to a group of people within a state or a country given authority to organize, direct and control the affairs of the state or country.In Kenya, the government has three arms. The legislature: - Commonly referred to as parliament, this is a law making arm of government. It includes the National assembly and the president. The executive: - this is the arm of government which implements laws. It includes the president, the cabinet and the civil service. The judiciary: - this is the arm of government responsible for seeing that the laws made are constitutional, that they are followed and that those who break them are punished. It is commonly referred to as the courts.Jean Jacques Rousseau, in his book, The Social Contract, describes government as an intermediate body set up by the subjects to ensure equity (fairness) and the execution of laws while maintaining social and political liberty In this sense, government is not dictatorial since its authority is derived from the people. People must however be free to choose their leaders, even remove those in power and replace them with others, in order to ensure the existence of the principal of fairness. **FORMS OF GOVERNMENT ** There are four forms of government: **Democratic government ** This is a type of government in which rulers regularly seek public mandate through popular vote. Such governments are based on the principles of free and fair elections. According to Abraham Lincoln, an American statesman, they are governments of the people, for the people and by the people.In such a government, freedoms and rights are provided for in the constitution that governs the law of the nation. **Aristocratic government ** Aristos best **Kratos** - powers An aristocracy is a form of government in which a group of people from the highest social class the royalty- in a society rule over others. Any member of the nobility can seek election or appointment to a government office while other citizens who are less privileged are there to be ruled.The King or Queen is the head of government while senior positions in the gover-nment are given to the privileged members from among the nobles. The nobles are considered superior to others human beings because of the wealthy family back-ground they are born into and their superior education. They are considered a rare breed of people. ----- 3 ### **Monarchical government ** This is a form of government where democracy is practiced but aristocratical power is respected. Parliament is the supreme organ but the monarchy- the royalty that are in power be it the king or queen is retained as a tradition, and respected as head of state. Monarchical governments are classified into two;Absolute monarchy: - which refers to the unrestricted power of the Head of State. The monarchy is dictatorial. Constitutional monarchy;- The monarchical power, which is restricted is determ-ined by what is spelt out in the constitution. Such a system of government is found in Lesotho and Britain. **Dictatorial government ** Dictatorship is a system of government where the ruler has total power over his subjects. Dictators are the sole authority where they rule. They make the law and execute justice and exercise their rule forcefully, suppressing their subjects at will. They curtail freedom of other subjects and impose their will over others.Examples of world dictators; Adolf Hitler of Germany who instigated the Germans into believing they were superior race and incited them against the Jews. Idi Amin of Uganda who ruled with a rod of iron NB; the most ideal form of government is where the subjects go to the ballot to elect the people to lead them. Governments play the important function of maintaining law and order. **Importance of studying history ** a) History enables us to appreciate peoples evolution, origin of cultures and development and hence further good relations and remove biases and prejudices about other people. b) When we study history, we appreciate peoples contribution to national develop- pment. E.g. freedom fighters hence the importance of mutual and social responsi-bility. c) It helps us to know the origin of mankind, his development and the progress he has made to this day. d) We are able to understand our culture and appreciate the culture of other people. e) it instills a sense of patriotism and nationalism among citizens as they learn of the past political developments of their country. Its study inspires strong feelings of ones heritage and the sense of belonging to a particular country. f) It helps us understand the interdependence of mankind and hence the need for cooperation. g) It influences career choice. The study of history leads to various professions. E.g. law, diplomacy, church, politics, teaching, and administration. h) The study of history helps us comprehend the social, economic and political developments of our societies i) It gives time and space to past events. Through the study of history, we learn about the time and place where an event took place. E.g. we know when Mau Mau uprising broke out (1948) and know when Kenya gained independence. ----- 4 ### j) It helps us develop a critical mind as we try to explain historical events. Historians will ask why, when and how. k) It provides intellectual fulfillment to the learner. Through an in -depth study of history, ones mind is enriched. **Importance of studying government ** a) It helps us to appreciate the importance of government. b) Helps us understand how laws are made and enforced c) Helps us understand the organs of the state and the powers vested in them d) Helps us understand how government raises and spends revenue. e) Helps us compare our government system with other systems of government in other countries. f) Understand how development policies are formulated and implemented. g) It makes us know our roles as citizens and the roles of the leaders who govern us. This makes better law-abiding citizens. h) Its study helps us understand our responsibilities as well as the limitations within which e must operate for the well-being of every member of the society. i) It helps us appreciate the constitution and the process of making and reviewing laws and statutes. j) It influences career choices. For example, those who choose to specialize in public administration will find the study of government very useful. **SOURCES OF INFORMATION ON HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT ** There three main sources of information on history and government; a) Unwritten sources. b) Written sources. c) Electronic sources ** Unwritten sources ** This refers to historical information which is not recorded in writing.Unwritten sources of historical information include oral traditions, linguistics (languages), Anthropology (culture) archaeology, paleontology and genetics. **Oral traditions ** This refers to the practice of handing down historical information by word of mouth from one Generation to the next. This forms a very important source of historical information especially where exists a non-literate society who might not be able to read. Oral traditions include folk tales, proverbs, songs and stories. Songs, proverbs folktales and stories told to a younger generation have been very instrumental in the passing of information from one generation to the other. For example, a song about our struggle for independence in Kenya passes very important information to the younger generation, who not yet had born at that time. ----- 5 ### **Advantages of oral traditions as a source of information ** a. Oral traditions hands over historical facts from one generation to another in the absence of written records. b. It is the best source of historical information since even the illiterate can learn their h history using oral traditions c. It is also a form of entertainment. For example through songs, folktales stories and proverbs, people get entertained. d. It complements other sources of information. e. The source of information is captivating especially if it is narrated by a person who participated in the event himself. For example, an Ex- World War II veteran narrating about the war. **Disadvantages of oral traditions as a source of information ** a. The truth and correctness of oral traditions become unreliable especially when the narrator deliberately conceals some information or lies. People tend to conceal their failures while talking so much about their success. b. Information can b exaggerated as they are transmitted by elders to successive generations. At times it is difficult to differentiate between what is real and what is imagined. c. Some information or facts may be forgotten or omitted since oral traditions depend heavily on human memory. This makes the information passed unreliable. d. Dates of information may be lacking. The source may not give correct chronology of events because it depends on human memory. It is common that people forget important dates and information about a particular past event. e. It is an expensive method. One has to pay for the informants transportation, lunch and accommodation. A historian may also need to travel to far places to find information. f. It is time consuming. One requires a lot of time to interview one individual. Where many people are to be interviewed, it may take a long time. **Linguistics ** This refers to the scientific study of languages. Historical linguistics is the study of language as it changes n the course of time. It seeks to trace the principles of language change and establish the current genealogical classification of a particular language. Such a study helps in discovering language form, content, vocabulary and historical experiences of the people who speak the language. Distribution of language and relationship between languages is important to a historian. People who speak related languages may be assumed to have a common origin, be connected, or had been in close contact at sometime in the past.Variations between languages of the same family can show how long ago the break in contact occurred. ----- 6 ### **Advantages of linguistics as a source of information ** a. Through linguistics, Facts can be obtained about the movement of people and their relationship. Such information helps experts to correctly group languages according to language families. b. It helps us understand communities better as people with a common language may have common origin. It is good for establishing facts on origin, migration and settlement. c. Linguistics complements other sources of historical information. For example, language as a medium of communication helps those using oral tradition to gather information from various sources. d. Language has enabled historical linguists to discover links between different people which were previously unknown. E.g. it is now known that the Bantus had a common origin and possibly spoke one language. However due to long periods of separation between various Bantu groups, through migrations, these groups may not understand each others language today. e. Linguistics helps in the dating of migration of people. Language drawn from a parent language will change in a certain way and rate through time. When comparing parent language with derived language, it is possible to know how long the derived language has independently from the parent language. E.g. Sheng language and Kiswahili (parent language). **Limitations in the use of linguistics as a source of information ** a. It is time consuming/learning a language takes a long time therefore delaying acquisition of information. b. There is a danger of omitting a word when translating a language. In the process, vital information about a peoples history may be lost. c. Inaccurate information can be passed on where wrong words are borrowed from other languages. d. Some words may just be difficult to understand. e. Some languages have become archaic and irrelevant hence difficult to translate. f. Misinterpretation of words may make them difficult to understand. g. Linguistic analysis for classification purposes may fail to take into account languages with time. h. One word may have different meanings in different languages. This can easily confuse a researcher. For example, Nyoro in Kikuyu means smooth, while the same word in Luo means yesterday. i. Lack of original speakers in the language under study limits research findings. **Anthropology ** This is the study of human beings, their origin, development, customs, beliefs, and social attributes like music, dance, drama, and religious beliefs and practices. ----- 7 ### Anthropologists have to live among the people under study in order to experience their way of life in order to understand and explain structures of societies, forms of social organization, institutions, descent, marriage, forms of government, systems of inheritance, religious customs and cultural values.The anthropological description of the beliefs and customs of a people will help the historian to determine the cultural past of the people **Advantages of anthropology as a source of information ** a. By living among the people, anthropologists help to discover, understand and explain structures of societies, forms of social organization, cultures, etc. b. Anthropologists assist historians to determine the cultural past of the people. c. It also gives a deeper understanding of a particular aspect of a peoples culture. Limitations in the use of anthropology as a source of information a. It is an expensive method as it involves living among the people. b. It is a time-consuming method of acquiring information. c. It is difficult for a researcher to adapt to the environment since the people they are studying may be of a totally different culture. Where they succeed in adapting, they face the risk of losing their own culture. d. People under study may try to behave differently when the researcher is around. A researcher may therefore miss important details. **Genetic studies ** Genetics is the scientific study of the ways in which characteristics are passed from parents to their offspring. (The study of heredity and the variation of inherited characteristics.) It deals with the ay human beings adapted to the circumstances in their environment and utilized available plants and animals to meet their needs.When used in relation to pants genetic studies helps us trace the origin of various species by identifying them with the region where large numbers of them are found today. After this, interpretation of their movement is made. The appearance of new cultivated varieties can be identified with the people whose economy they form a part. Also, common genes or characteristics among a group of people may indicate some relationships. **Archaeology and paleontology ** Archaeology is the study of mans past through scientific analysis of the remains of material remains of his culture, e.g. weapons, tools, houses, clothing, utensils, paintings sculpture, pottery, coins, jewellery, cutlery, beads and work o arts.The archaeologist reconstructs the activities and way of life of people who lived in prehistoric times from various evidence remains of the material culture.Other items that can be used in archaeology include remains of charcoal and carbo-nized seeds, remains of cloth or garments, remains of dwelling laces.After studying the available artifacts, the archaeologist formulates his concept of a peoples civilization at the time the artifacts were used. The existence of artifacts in an area can enable the historian to deduce the material culture of the people who lived n the past. ----- 8 ### Palaeontology is the scientific study of the evolution and structure of extinct plants and animals (fossils) through scientific examination of fossil remains.Historians and archaeologists work with natural scientists like paleontologists, geologists and ecologists and chemistry in discovering fossils, getting information about soil structure, interpreting mans relationship to his environment and dating of fossils. **Methods used by archaeologists and paleontologists in discovering a historical site. ** a) By looking at areas where tectonic forces (faulting) or erosion have occurred. In such areas, surfaces which may give important clues to the point of finding fossils and artefacts are exposed. b) Use of vision. Sometimes vision may help them find on the surface a small part of an early settlement such as a few stones in a regular pattern. c) Use of historical research. A place that may be mentioned in a historical document or in an oral narrative may give a clue to the geography of the area and open up further inquiries into the past civilization of such a clue.e.g Omo River Valley, Olduvai Gorge, Ur and Babylon. d) Use of experience. An archaeologist may also use his long experience and skill to identify a potential site for archaeological excavation. e) During cultivation and building construction, farmers and builders may accidentally expose ancient objects that could arouse the curiosity of researchers. For example Nyayo ya Mungu in Tanzania was a single footprint on a rock surface that was found in 1995 and became evidence of the existence of early human beings. **Advantages of using archaeology ** a) Archaeology gives us detailed information on material culture that other sources may not have. b) Archaeology gives a sense of time, as the artifacts are dated. c) It complements other sources of information and thus ensures authenticity of the information. d) It provides information of varied nature depending on the materials found on the site. For example, if tools, weapons, coins, bones, rock paintings and other items are located, at a site, a lot of information maybe deduced. **Limitations of using archaeology ** a) It is an expensive source of information. This is because one has to hire labourers to excavate the site and get artefacts and take them to laboratories for analysis. b) It is a time-consuming method. The researcher needs a lot of time to prepare for an excavation and take material for analysis in laboratories. c) It is sometime difficult for archaeologists to locate an archaeological site. d) Some artefacts and fossils are fragile and can therefore break or disintegrate during excavation. This may result in distortion of the analysis of the artefacts. e) Archaeology is only limited to the study of the ancient period and therefore cannot be used to study recent history. ----- 9 ### f) Archaeological information may sometimes be inaccurate since it is often bases on inferences (conclusions) and reconstructions. g) With archaeology, it may not be easy to accurately determine the date when events took place. It is only estimated through the method of dating fossils. h) There are very few archaeological experts and facilities for interpreting archaeological evidence in Kenya. Quite often, artefacts excavated from Kenya are taken to European countries for dating and analysis. What things do archaeologists use to construct the activities of people who lived in pre- history times? a) Looking for regions of tectonism (faulting) associated with fossils and artifacts. b) They look for unique features e.g. stone patterns. c) Remains of fossils and artifacts dug out by farmers and constructors. d) They dig, excavate for artifacts and fossils. e) They study artifacts and fossils found. f) They make research in regions associated with evolution of man e.g. rift valley. g) They classify the artifacts and fossils. h) They use chemical and scientific methods to find ages of their findings e.g. carbon 14- dating method **What problems face archaeologists in their work of re writing history using ** **unwritten sources? ** a) The exercise is too expensive. b) It is dangerous and tedious. Animals like wild dogs can attack scientists. c) Identification of the site is not easy because some artifacts are buried. d) Some artifacts can be destroyed in the process of digging. e) Dating of fossils is difficult. f) Personnel are few hence more work. g) Poor infrastructure in rural areas where their researches are mainly based h) Archaeologists may suffer from diseases caused by changes in climate. i) Sometimes the climate of their residence differs from that of the place they are taking **METHODS OF DATING FOSSILS ** There are six methods through which scientists may use to arrive at the age of fossils. **1. Geological periods ** These are periods that have been given names by paleontologists and geologists for the past ages. They are characterized by the successive type of pants and animals found, and the climatic changes.The recent period is the Holocene period which began 10,000 years ago at the end of the Pleistocene. **2. Chemical dating ** They exist in two types: **(a) Radio- carbon dating ** ----- 10 ### This method involves a measure of the rate of decay of carbon -14 in fossils and organic substances. Carbon -14 is a naturally existing radioactive element (isotope) of carbon of relative atomic mass fourteen and is found in the Carbon Dioxide which is present in the atmosphere.It is absorbed by plants and consequently by all living organisms during their lifetime. When plant or animal dies, absorption stops. Carbon -14 already absorbed begins to disintegrate at a fixed rate from the time of death. If the amount of carbon -14 still remaining in an organic sample can be measured and related to the content of the isotope in the modern plant or animal, the rate of decay will be known. The date at which the sample was buried will e known. The measurement tells us how long it is since the organism died.The unit of measuring is known as half-life- the number of years it takes for half the carbon -14 to decay.However the accuracy of radio-carbon dating is limited to up to 40,000 years ago. **(b) Potassium argon method ** This is the method used to date volcanic ash. During volcanic eruptions, potassium is emitted. As soon as the potassium is deposited, the radio-active potassium-40 immediately begins to decay into the gas argon. It is assumed that the argon is retained in the mineral or rock unless there is earth movement.Given that the rate of decay of potassium is known, the amount of argon-40 compared with the amount of potassium, gives a direct measure of age.Because of the slower rate of decay of potassium than the decay of carbon-14, the potassium argon method is used for dates ranging from hundreds of millions of years to 30,000 years.Recently methods have been developed for measuring the potassium and argon simultaneously on the same sample using nuclear. **3. Stratigraphy ** This is the study and interpretation of the layers of rock successively deposited at one place. It is useful in determining dates for areas affected by sedimentation. Through Stratigraphy, a geological time-chart is obtained showing which rock was formed earlier or later. **4. Fission-track dating ** This is a method developed for dating Pleistocene samples. The ages of glass and other mineral objects estimated by observing the tracks made in them by the fission fragments of uranium nuclei they contain. It requires that Uranium must be present. The age obtained dates from the time the object solidified. This method has been proved reliable by being able to provide same reading from a sample of glass with a lump of pumice from Olduvai Gorge corresponding with the potassium argon dates from the same layer. **5. Lexico-statistics dating ** Lexico-statistics is the statistical study of the vocabulary of languages with the intentions of determining their ages and their historical links with other languages.The study is based on the assumption that all languages have a basic vocabulary which will change slowly at a common rate for all languages at all times. The existence of reconstructed vocabulary of the parent language in derivative languages shows the ----- 11 ### **Relationship between the two ** Glottochronology, a subdivision of Lexico-statistics, attempts to establish that languages are historically related .by this method, there is an effort to express rates of language development by formulae precise enough to enable dates when change occurred to be calculated **6. Statistical dating ** Through a system of averaging, the length of a generation can be determined for a Particular society and dates estimated for events associated with certain generations. If the number and names of successive age-sets are remembered, the same system of averaging can be used. **Advantages of using unwritten sources of information on history and government** a) Information about peoples movement and relationship is given. b) It is very efficient where there still existed illiteracy and people could not write or read. c) It informs us of events in the absence of written materials. d) Data received is primary/ firsthand so accuracy is enhanced. e) Materials collected or excavated can be stored in museums for future reference. f) They create employment in museums where they are stored. g) Information not captured by written sources can be obtained from oral traditions. h) There is a sense of reality as it involves things that are seen and touched. i) Unwritten sources especially linguistics help in discovering the links between different people, which were previously unknown. j) Detailed information on material culture may be obtained. k) Dating of the migration of people is more accurate in unwritten sources e.g. In linguistics. **Written sources ** These are sources in which letters or any other symbols have been put on the surface for the purpose of communication. They include books, archives, constitutions, journals, novels, plays, newspapers, magazines, documentaries, dairies, annual reports, periodical and paintings. **Written sources are classified into two; ** **a) Archives and early manuscripts ** Archives are a collection of historical documents or records, especially those carrying classified information of a government or an organization, which after a period of time are accessible to the public. They are also places where government, public and other historical records are kept.-they are resource centres for information.A manuscript is an authors handwritten or typed text that has not yet been published. Early manuscripts include stone tablets and scrolls. The bible and Quran are based on these two. ----- 12 ### **b) Printed sources ** They include books, journals, novels, plays, newspapers, magazines, documentaries, dairies and annual reports. Photographs employ both electronic and printing processes but basically fall under printed sourcesWorks of fiction such as films plays and novels are important source of historical information. (Fiction is literature in form of prose, especially novels that describe imaginary events and people).Since work of fiction involves feelings and emotions, they can give more information about history. Also reading good historical novels arouses interest in history and gives the reader intellectual fulfillment. Newspapers convey new or fresh events, which with the passing of time becomes history. **Advantages of written records ** a) Written records preserve history since events are recorded for future reference. They are a store of information. b) Written information can reach or be distributed to all literate people all over the world. c) Written sources are less costly compared to those of anthropology or archaeology. d) Unlike oral tradition sources which are largely dependent on human memory, written sources are more accurate as information is preserved exactly as it was recorded. e) Written records may be written or translated into different languages thus reaching different people all over the world. f) Written records are in most cases reliable as biases and prejudices coming from authors can be limited. This can be done by comparing written material with statistical data from other sources. **Limitations ** a) Where an author omits essential information for one reason or another, a written source may be rendered quite unreliable. b) Written information may be misunderstood or misinterpreted by readers either with the intention of discrediting others or to suit ones needs. c) Writers at times are biased since the write from their particular point of view. For example, the writings of early explorers and missionaries. d) Written records are only limited to literate people within the society. are not useful to illiterate people in the absence of literate members of the society. e) At times, depending on the society involved, acquiring written records may be very costly. f) Reading written records is often time-consuming. **Electronic sources ** These include microfilms, films, videos, radio, and television **Microfilms ** These are films on which extremely small photographs (microphotography) of documents and printed matter are stored. They are tinny but when magnified can be clearly read. ----- 13 ### The importance of converting documents into microfilms is for preservation purposes and saving storage spaces. **Radio ** This is an authoritative source of historical information that captures words and emotions of an event as I was. For example radio news on the presidents speeches gives listeners the actual information on national matters. However, radio lacks the vividness found in television and films. **Audio- visual sources ** These include television, films and videos. Films carry indisputable historical facts as action is recorded live. They also give better understanding of some aspects of the social history of a given people with regard to their music, dress and leisure activities. Videos and films make the past come alive. However, since films are acted, they can sometimes be unrealistic as they may not present facts but an exaggerated version of an event.Television on its part gives good historical information as it depicts the situation as it was. **Databanks and databases ** Databanks are large stores of organized information which can be accessed in number of ways. E.g. if it is a book, information can be accessed through an index, a table of content or by browsing.Electronic databases are stored in computer and facilitate easy and faster retrieval of information. One can search for information by use of a number of search terms.Information in a database can be printed when required but can also be accessed instantly on computer. **Limitations of using electronics as a source of information in history and** **government** a) They are Subject to bias since most audio visuals contain foreign materials carrying the bias of the producer. b) Some are limited to the literate only e.g. information in data bases and microfilms can only be accessed by literate people and even computer literate people only. c) The information may be inaccurate only giving what is appealing to the public. TV crew depict only what they want to. Censorship may leave out vital information. d) Electronic sources of information are too expensive; most people cannot afford e.g. TV, Radios. e) Some acted films are unrealistic and therefore contain exaggerated information. **EARLY MAN ** In the study of early man, we will seek to answer questions that human beings have always sought to answer about how they appeared on earth, whether they were created and where the universe came from. **The origin of Human Beings ** A number of theories have been put forward to explain the origin of human beings. a. The creation theory. ----- 14 ### b. The mythical/ traditional theory c. The evolution theory **The Creation theory ** The Jews, Christians and Muslims recognize the creation story as narrated in the first book of bible and in Quran. That the whole universe was created by god. That God also created man, woman and all living things and all non-living creatures. Man was created in Gods own image and woman created to provide man with companionship. **The Mythical Theory ** Among African communities, there are myths about their origin all of them pointing to the fact that the first man was created by God. Examples: Among the Agikuyu, their God (Ngai) created the first man, Gikuyu. He the provided him with a wife, Mumbi. He gave him land at Mugurwe wa Gathanga. One of the myths among the Nandi state that the first two people, male and female came from the knees of a giant man, when the knees began swelling and later burs for the two to come out from each of the either knees. **The Evolution Theory ** Charles Darwin, an English man living between 1809 and 1882 questioned the acceptance of the creation theory. Through scientific expedition to South America and the pacific islands in 1831, he developed interest in fossils (remains of plants and animals found beneath the earths surface.) in 1859; he published his ideas in a book titled The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection. The ideas enlisted instant battles from the Christian fraternity save for one supporter, Huxley. Clearly the theory of evolution was not accepted but it helped to make people aware of the new ideas concerning the origin of man. **What is evolution? ** Evolution can be defined as the process of change in living organisms over a number of years, frequently involving the beginning of new species from earlier species. According to Charles Darwin, man transformed from simple life slowly over millions of years through environmental mutation, natural selection, isolation and adaptation. Mutation was a stage of abrupt change. Natural selection is an instinct by which the stronger species out compete the weaker for resources. Adaptation is where the surviving species isolate themselves from others as they adapt to new environment through body changes and technological changes e.g. ability to grow crops and make shelter. Darwins theory of natural selection comprises the following points. All organisms or creatures are uniquely different and this uniqueness is based on heredity factors which an organism has from birth. Although many young organisms are produced, few manage to develop to maturity. ----- 15 ### The organisms that manage to grow to maturity and reproduce are those that are able to constantly adapt to the existing environment.In view of the limited resources, even after mutation, Darwin argued that only the fittest organisms survive as the weak species become extinct. This theory is popularly known as survival for the fittest.According to Darwin, isolation and adaptation is the final stage in the evolution process. Having survived through mutation and natural selection, the merging species increase in number. This leads to search for basic needs and in the process a species may be isolated from the rest and then finally adapt to the new environment.The theory of evolution holds that Humans belong to the animal kingdom and that man has evolved over the years. Man is a primate just as apes like gorillas, chimpanzees and monkeys. However, man belongs to the family of hominidae, while apes belong to the family of pongidae. Man according to Darwin developed over the years from his ape-like ancestors. **Evolution and adaptation of man ** The earliest Mammals lived on trees for two reasons; a) There was more supply of food o trees such as insects, leaves and birds eggs b) Security. Animals were more secure from their enemies while up on trees Man evolved from this kind of animals Archaeological evidence points at East Africa as the cradle of mankind. Reasons why East Africa is regarded as the place where man first evolved a) Evidence from archaeologists show that the earliest apes first evolved around lake and rift valley areas. And if man evolved from apes, then the first man must have appeared in east Africa. b) The savanna landscapes found in east Africa favored evolution while the conditions elsewhere (forests and deserts) Were unfavourable. c) The bones and weapons and tools which archaeologists are finding are proofs to this. These findings are widespread in Olduvai Gorge, Olorgesaillie, and Ngorongoro and around lakes of east Africa. d) The discovery of remains of early hominids and their material culture which form a pattern of human evolution prove this. E.g. we can trace the evolutionary process from Dryopithecus to Ramapithecus to Australopithecus to Homo habilis to Homo erectus to Homo sapiens. **Important archaeological sites found in East Africa ** In Kenya; - Rusinga Island, Fort Ternan near Kericho, Kariandusi near Elementaita, Gambles cave, Olorgesaillie, Kobi For a near Lake Turkana, Hyrax Hill and Njoro River cave. In Tanzania; - Olduvai Gorge, Eyasi Simila, Apis Rock and Garusi In Uganda; - Nsongezi, Napak, Magosi, Paraa, Ishanga, Mweya and Nyabusora In Ethiopia; - Omo River Valley and Hadar. ----- 16 ### Over a long period of time, mans ancestors lived in thick forests. Later about 15 million years ago, the forests transformed into savanna grasslands causing mans ancestors to change both physically and mentally so as to cope with the new environment. **The changes ** a) The tail which no longer had any value in the savanna disappeared. b) Man became more upright as there were no more impeding vegetation as was the case of too much foliage and intertwining vegetation in the forests and also to reduce surface area onto which solar insolation had effect. These also enabled quicker movement. c) The leg and foot formation changed to enable the weight of the body to be supported and balance to be achieved while moving or at a standstill. d) Gradual use of front limbs (hands for holding objects) enabled man to make tools which made work easier. The limbs also found another role of protection from other predators. As the forests disappeared, competition for food intensified and humans had to change their earlier eating habits. Some fossil evidence clearly give distinctive evidence of the break-off point between apes and hominids (mans ancestors.)The changes which Homo sapiens underwent as a break-off from apes to modern man. a) The skull size of the early human beings became larger indicating bigger brains. For example, Australopithecus, who lived between 5 and 1 million years ago, had a brain capacity of 530cm3. Homo erectus who lived later on had an improved brain capacity of between 775 and 1225cm3. b) Their jaws and teeth became more powerful compared to earlier forms indicating their use in tearing and cutting tough fibres and even the need for defence as a weapon. The size of the jaws and teeth became smaller. c) They developed a refined speech as compared to earlier forms. d) They were taller with less hair on their body. e) The forearms and hands underwent some changes. They developed a thumb for grasping objects. Their arms and hands became shorter, more appropriate for an upright posture. f) Their leg and foot formation also changed. Their feet and toes were smaller than earlier hominids in order to support the weight of the rest of the body while motionless or mobile. The toes were no longer in need for holding onto branches. **From apes to homo sapien sapiens ** Between 40 and 25 million years ago, the first apes appeared on earth. The first man (Austropithecus) appeared around 4.5 million years ago. The following are the stages through which the evolution of man passed. **1) Aegyptopithecus - An Early African Monkey ** ~ Aegyptopithecus was reconstructed from a monkey like skull found at Fayum Depression in Egypt. He forms earliest evidence of probable man's ancestors. ----- 17 ### ~ Its Teeth were those of a herbivore ~ It had a Small, about 4kg and was named Egyptian ape. ~ It was highly adapted to forest life. Had stereoscopic vision. It could jump skillfully from one tree to other using hands. It Dated 33 million years 2) Dryopithecus Africanus (proconsul ) ~ Its Remains were found at Rusinga Island within Lake Victoria by Mary and Louis Leakey in 1948. Its Skull appearance was more close to modern man than to Aegyptopithecus. ~ He had a quadrupedal movement like a chimpanzee. He had a Smooth forehead. ~ He had long teeth like other animals. The shape of his teeth and jaws indicated that He ate fruits. It is his remains that strengthen the belief that east Africa was the first homeland of mankind. **3) Kenyapithecus (Ramapithecus) ** ~ He is believed to have appeared between 15 and 12 million years ago ~ First remains found Fort Ternan in Kericho District, Kenya, in 1961 by Dr. Louis Leakey and Mary. Other fossils found at Samburu Hills, near Lake Baringo as well as in the Lake Turkana basin. ~ The equivalent species found in the Siwalikis Hills in northern India near New Delhi was named Ramapithecus ~ He had small canines and could occasionally walk on twos without falling. ~ The creature was small and weighed 36kg with bigger brains than earlier hominids. **4) Australopithecus (southern ape) ** ~ By 4-2m years ago a series of species known as australopithecines begin to appear. Perhaps it was the earliest homid closer to modern man. ~ The pelvis and leg were similar to that of modern humans. ~ They were bipedal and this was important in defence, grasp of objects and vision of an impending danger from a distance. ~ His Brain size was smaller than that of a human but larger than gorillas. ~ He was one of the most hairy hominid that ever existed. ~ He was Short but strong with a low forehead. Had large teeth and skulls ~ His remains were first discovered at Taung in Botswana by Raymond Dart in 1924. ~ The broken up skull found in East Africa at Olduvai Gorge in 1959 by Mary Leakey, was called Zinjanthropus- Nut-Cracker man since it had big jaws that suggest it kept on chewing. ~ Other fossils found in South Africa, Omo River Valley, Laetoli in Tanzania, near lakes Turkana and Baringo in kenya and L Natron Four types of Australopithecines that have been identified a) Australopithecus Afarensis b) Australopithecus Anamensis c) Australopithecus africanus. ----- 18 ### d) Australopithecus Robustus e) Australopithecus Anamensis ~ He is aged between 4.2 and 3.9 million years ago and is believed to be one of the oldest **a) Australopithecines ** ~ Evidence of his existence is obtained from the Reconstruction of Material consisting of 9 fossils from Kanapoi in Kenya and 12 fossils from Allia Bay in Kenya found by Dr. Meave Leakey, Dr. Allan Walker and the four fossil hunters (Kamoya Kimeu, Wambua Mangao, Nzube Mutiwa and Samuel Ngui.) ~ The fossil remains (comprising a lower jaw) were named A. Anamensis in August 1995 in a leading British Scientific journal. ~ He had relatively large canines. ~ The homid was aged between 3.9 and 3.0 million years ago. Its Name is derived from Afar Depression in Ethiopia. ~ He Had Apelike face and human-like teeth. He was small in stature and Bipedal, but Walked bent over, not fully upright. ~ They had very small brains -Brain capacity from 375 to 500 cc (Its Brain was the size of an orange.) ~ They had a bony ridge over the eyes, a low forehead, a flat nose, and also they had no chin. ~ Remains found at Laetoli in Tanzania and Tugen Hills in Baringo District. **c) Australopithecus Africanus (A. Gracilis) ** ~ A. africanus existed between 3 and 2.5 million years ago. A. africanus was slenderly built, or Gracile (Gracile means slender) with a height of 1.5m. ~ Was significantly more like modern humans than A. Afarensis, with a larger brain and more humanoid facial features. ~ Had large teeth, jaws and skull ~ A. africanus has been found at only four sites in southern Africa Taung (1924), Sterkfontein (1935), Makapansgat (1948) and Gladysvale (1992). d) Australopithecus Robustus ~ He Lived between 1 - 2mya in South Africa. ~ He is the biggest and most recent Australopithecine. - weight 68kg. He had more robust skull, jaws, and teeth. ~ He ate fruits, nuts and raw tubers- was apparently a vegetarian. ~ His Remains were found primarily in cave deposits at Swartkrans and Kromdraai in South Africa. ~ His Average brain size was about 530 cc ~ The East African A.Robustus was named A. Boisei 5) Homo habilis (Handy Man) - man with ability. ----- 19 ### ~ He is the earliest known species of the genus Homo; that is, the first human species. He lived 2.5 -1.5 million years ago ~ He was the First Homo specie to create and use stone tools for hunting and daily life. Homo habilis depicted the ability to make better tools than his predecessors. That is why he was referred to as man with ability. ~ His Brain size was -500 -800 cc;-the Brain shape is more humanlike. ~ He was capable of rudimentary speech. ~ He was about 127 cm (5'0\") tall, and about 45 kg (100 lb) in weight, although females may have been smaller ~ His fossils were found in the Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania in 1964 by Dr. J. Leakey. ~ His Remains were also found at Hadar and Omo River Valley in Ethiopia and kobi fora along L. Turkana by Benerd Ngeneo in 1972. 6) Homo erectus (Upright Man) ~ He was BIPEDAL- standing about 4-5 feet tall with a larger brain (700-1250cc). He lived between 2 million and 200,000 years ago. ~ He was clever as illustrated by his ability to make Acheulian tools such as the hand axe which was used as an axe, knife or even as a scraper. He was the First hominid to invent and use fire. ~ Their skeletons were larger and showed that they were quite heavily muscled ~ They were omnivorous like many other early hominids. ~ Only had hair on their head and back like are men that we have today ~ Remains found in Hardar, Ethiopia where the skeleton of a female Lucy were found. ~ Other fossils were found near Nariokotone River on the north western shores of LakeTurkana by Kamoya Kimeu in 1984. ~ Also at Olorgesaillie near Magadi, Isimila near Iringa in TZ and Tenerife in Algeria. ~ The most famous Homo Erectus fossil was found in a cave in Zhoukoudian, China and became known as Peking Man/Java man **7) Homo sapiens (Wise Man thinking man) ** ~ Their Main difference with their hominid ancestors is their extreme intelligencethey were the smartest hominid that ever lived with a Brain capacity of 1000-1800cc ~ They lived between 200,000 and 150,000 years ago ~ They improved their way of life by making a variety of flint, bone, wood and stone tools **(Microliths) ** ~ They hunted, gathered and fished. Later on, they domesticated plants and animals ~ Their Remains were found at Eliye Springs, Kanjera and Kanam in Kenya, Bodo and Omo River Valley in Ethiopia and Ngaloba in Tanzania. Three sub-species of Homo sapiens existed; **a) Rhodesian man ** ~ The sub-species Was discovered in Zambia, hence the name Rhodesian man ----- 20 ### ~ He had straight legs and walked with long strides. ~ Rhodesian mans Brains and skull were very similar to those of modern man. **b) Neanderthals ** ~ His Remains were found in Neander valley, Germany (1856). They Lived in caves and valleys ~ He was 5 feet and 5 inches tall-much stronger, heavily built and more aggressive too. ~ He Had very thick eyebrow ridges like the other hominids ~ He Made clothes from animal skins. They would scrape animal fat so they can use the skin as clothing. ~ They were probably the First humans to bury their dead. He was most likely the most intelligent hominid other than modern humans. ~ He was a nomad, gathering and hunting deer, wild pigs and wild sheep. Their weapons were used to impale animals; therefore, to kill them, they had to approach the animal and get very close. This was dangerous and probably caused injuries and even fatalities. ~ Communication was key in hunting because they had to work as a team. They had the ability to use complex speech; however, their sentences were probably basic. Instead of painting on cave walls they painted their faces. ~ Other remains were found in Asia in France, Belgium, Gibraltar, Italy and former Yugoslavia. ~ They became extinct about 30,000 years ago. c) Homo sapiens Cro-Magnon ~ He was almost identical to modern humans although quite muscular and taller. Had long, low skull and a wide face, a sharp, rising forehead, bushy eyebrows and prominent chins ~ They had a big brain capacity and had very complex thinking ~ He was hunter-gatherer, painter and lived in caves ~ He knew how to make clothes ~ His Fossil remains were found in Western Europe. Their skeletons still remain in France today ~ They became extinct around 10,000years ago 8) Homo sapiens sapiens ~ Homo sapiens sapiens are modern day humans. They evolved about 50,000 years ago. ~ They have big brains and a more advanced faculty for curiosity and intelligence ~ They have a large brain capacity. They do not just think, they plan ahead, make accurate forecasts, and study the star and the galaxies ~ They have made inventions that have made life more comfortable. ~ They are Around 5 feet 6 inches tall and Walk fully upright ~ They have Minimal hair on our bodies (replaced by clothing)-We have clothes that are made from brands, factories, we also sew or knit our own clothing. ----- 21 ### The growing knowledge of genetic structure and functions has enabled human beings to clone animals using genes obtained from existing animals, thereby producing offsprings that looks exactly like the original e.g. the work of Dr. Wilmut Ian at the Roslin Institute of Edinburgh, Scotland that led to the first cloned sheep named dolly. Scientists are making attempts to even clone humans.More recent discoveries of early man include the Toumai found in Chad in 2002 dating about 6 to 7 myaIn 2000, another discovery was made in Baringo, Kenya (millennium man) and is believed todate 6mya. The discovery was made by Martin Pickford and Eustace Gitonga o the National Museums of Kenya. **Appearance of races ** It has been hypothesized modern humans, using superior technology and more efficient adaption, out competed other hominid species to quickly emerge as the only surviving hominid species on the planet.Though we feature much diversity in appearance, these differences are minor compared to our biological similarities/all human beings are quite closely related.Many of our physical differences (skin, color, hair color, etc.) are relatively recent adaptations to local environment conditions. Evolutionary forces such as genetic drift have also played a role in our creating such variation as well. Biologists and anthropologists classified humans into three different groups based on physical characteristics. Negroids, found in Africa. Caucasians found in Europe Mongoloids found in Asia, Modern genetics has revealed that these categories make very little sense biologically since modern races are derived from a common stock and the different races are able to interbreed. There are also no differences in intelligence among all races of mankind. The term race has traditionally been used by scientists as the equivalent of the subspecies concept when classifying humans.The Cultural and economic practices of early man **What is culture? ** Culture is the way of life of a people-Customs, language and social institutions The things that early humans made and used formed their material culture. Early mans culture can be understood through study of Stone Age or Paleolithic periods **What is Stone Age? ** This refers to the early period of human history when mans tools and weapons were mainly made of stone and to some extend wood and bone There are three Stone Age periods 1) Old stone age- Paleolithic period- 4,500,000 to 50,000years 2) Middle stone age- Mesolithic period-50,000-15,000 years. 3) New Stone Age Neolithic period- 15,000- 1,500 years **The Paleolithic Age ** Paleolithic -> Old Stone Age- 4,500,000 50,000 years ago ----- 22 ### The Paleolithic is the longest of all stone ages, covering roughly 2 million years. The hominid species who lived side by side were Australopithecus, Homo habilis and Homoerectus. **EARLY STONE AGE TOOLS ** The hominids Made tools from stone The Tool Traditions was called Oldowan tools / pebble tools. The tools were named after Olduvai Gorge where they were found. They were made by Australopithecus and Homo erectus. They were also known as pebble tools because they were made of stones. Among the finds at Olduvai were the chopper, fist hatchet (core tools) and several flake tools.Such tools were also found at Kobi For a near Lake Turkana, Omo River Valley in Ethiopia, and Kafu Valley in Uganda, Shaba province in Zaire and in Algeria, Tunisia and morocco.In Kenya, the tools were found at sites in kariandusi, Olorgesaillie, Kilombe, Chesowanja, Mtongwe, Isenya and Lewa DownsAustralopithecus Southern Ape They didnt have the intelligence to make sophisticated tools, so they may have made tools out of bones that they foundAustralopithecus afarensis mostly used tools that they found or that nature had created, example was a stick, which they stuck into a termite mound, then the termites clung to it letting the ape pull out the stick covered in food. He is however also credited for making Oldowan tools. **Homo habilis and the Oldowan Tradition** They made stone tools for chopping, scraping, and cutting. Making of Choppers (lower left) involved knapping a few flakes off the core. Both cores and flakes were used. The Knapper could strike a spherical piece of stone until Flake falls off opposite side. The Tool would then be flipped over and procedure repeated. Several blows would create a cutting edgeRequirements reflect Intelligence, Planning, foreknowledge of design and Knowledge of breakage pattern of rock. There must also be Hand-eye coordination The second phase of the Old Stone Age was marked by tools called Acheulian tools, named after the site of St Acheul in France. Others found in Tanzania, Uganda, Malawi, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. In Kenya, the tools were found at Kariandusi, Olorgesaillie, Kilombe, Chesowanja, Mtongwe, Isenya and Lewa DownsThey were made by Homoerectus. Homo erectus and the Acheulian tool technology. Signature tool: a well- designed hand axe and cleavers The Hand axe had multiple uses, from cutting, skinning, scraping animal skins, digging and sharpening bone and wood. **Characteristics of Acheulian hand axe ** ~ It was Bifacial: both sides were knapped ~ Symmetrical in breadth ~ Shaped to a point on one end ~ The edge is thin and sharp ~ Broad end is curved, but edge is still sharp. **Process of Manufacturing Acheulian Hand axes ** ----- 23 ### Dozens of flakes were removed from the core, from 25 to 75. Each flake blow must be precisely positioned. The Core must be turned over again and again to maintain symmetry and to keep edge straight. All the exterior rind (cortex) was removed. It was a demanding task-The hand axe was Symmetrical and finely shaped. **OLD STONE AGE-HUNTING AND GATHERING ** The early Stone Age people lived in small groups and were able to hunt for food using sharpened rocks and sticks. They used simple hunting methods of chasing wild animals and throwing stones at them. They also made traps by digging large pits on the paths used by animals. They ate raw meat from small animals like lizards and rodents Women gathered edible fruits, eggs and roots- had a balanced diet. **THE OLD STONE AGE-SHELTER AND CLOTHING ** Humans during this period found shelter in caves and tree-tops. Their bodies were hairy enough to keep them warm- lack of clothing was therefore bearable during this period. Moreover, the savannahs were also warm enough. They also preferred the grasslands because they provided them with the much needed water and foodThe Australopithecus had a very small brain and that limited the actions they could do. The Australopithecus were very hairy so they didnt need any clothes. Australopithecus diet was mostly made up of fruits and vegetables they found. If Australopithecus found a dead animal it would scavenge of it but the Australopithecus afarensis couldnt cook the meat and kill the germs. **Mesolithic age ** Mesolithicmiddle Stone Age- 200,000 10,000 years ago. They period was characterized by superior brains and ability of Homo erectus and Homo sapiens. Great improvements were witnessed. **TOOLS ** Signature tool; Sangoan tool made using Lavallois method The tool was named after Sango Bay site on L. Victoria-Tz **The Lavallois technology ** It involved using cores of smaller stones to hit bigger ones. The tool maker would draw outline of flake on stone module and Strike out flakes and blades of desired shape. The rock would be prepared beforehand to control how rock breaks when struck. The flakes and blades were then trimmed into a variety of knives, scrapers, spear points, choppers and daggers.Also Mousterian tools (specialized stone tools and weapons) were made. Tang- the first tool with a handle was invented in this period- 40,000 years ago in northern Africa.Fire was also another important tool invented by Homo erectus and he used it as follows ~ For warmth at night, lighting, to cook roots and roast meat, for hunting (bushfires), tool-making to harden tips, means of communication, food preservation ~ It also enabled hominids to migrate out of savannah **MESOLITHIC FOOD AND CLOTHES ** ----- 24 ### Homo erectus was considered the first true hunters. Because of better tools (Hand axe), fire and axes, they could hunt larger game such as deer, rhinos, pigs, elephants; buffaloes etc. and cook their food.People learnt to wear animal skins and make waist-belts and necklaces. They also painted themselves with red ochre and oil. **MESOLITHIC SHELTER. ** Man used identifiable shelter. An example was found at Orangia in South Africa. Man also used rock shelter (rocks scooped out to make hollows). Later man lived in caves with entrance covered with animal skins to keep wind and rain away (e.g. Matupi Cave in Zaire and Gambles cave near Nakuru. **MESOLITHIC LANGUAGE AND ROCK ART ** Families lived in small groups for security reasons. There were distinct languages to enhance communications.Rock paintings-Pictures of animals were painted on walls and rocks. Examples of Cave paintings were left behind at Kondoa and singida areas in north Tanzania and at Apollo II cave in S.A. This pictures signified mans believe in magic (arrows piercing animals he hoped to kill) **SOCIAL ORGANIZATION ** There was efficient group organization as evidenced by the ability to carry out large-scale hunting. Language invention further strengthened the social bonds and cultures of early man **The Neolithic age ** Neolithic New Stone Age- 15,000 4,000 years ago This period was marked with the Emergence of Homo sapiens and homo sapien sapiens. **THE NEOLITHIC TOOLS ** Man became a Very skilled toolmaker-they made tools known as microliths- (small piece of sharp stone tool). For example, a crescent or a lunate which had a straight sharp cutting edge and a curved blunted back.Their weapons include stone axes, knives, spears, harpoons, wooden bows, and sharp, stone tipped arrows, hooks, needles, and bone fish hooks.NEANDERTHALS were the first to create the pointed tip on hunting spears and harpoons **THE NEOLITHIC SHELTER ** Earlier sapiens used caves as their homes instead of building one. Later, they made permanent homes that looked like tents or tepees, out of tree branches, grass, mammoth bones, and animal skins. They used or made some sort of paint to use on their cave paintings. **FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ** Man domesticated plants and animals though he continued to hunt and gather. Man changed as from Nomadic lifestyle to settled stationary lifestyle; a.k.a.sedentary Population also increased due to balanced diet and adequate food ----- 25 ### **THE NEOLITHIC GOVERNMENT ** Due to settled life and improved settlement, rules and laws were set up as a basis of government. Some people also specialized in leadership, religious activities as well as making of crafts. **THE NEOLITHIC RELIGION ** Mans language and religious beliefs developed as a result of depending on natural forces like rain. They began to ponder over issues like life and death.Evidence is found at Hyrax Hill and Njoro river Cave where human fossil remains were found buried with items such as tools and seeds or foodThe practice of burying someone with his possessions implied a belief in life after death.Neanderthals were the first to bury their dead. They also seemed to have a conception of an afterlife as shown by the actual burial site at La Ferrassie, France, with seven tombs including a man, a woman and several childrens graves lying side by side. **THE NEOLITHIC ART AND CRAFT ** Humans specialized in crafts such as basketry, pottery and later smelting Evidenced by this horse head carving to the right. **DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURE ** **Definition of agriculture ** It is the cultivation of crops. The modern definition of agriculture includes animal husbandry, fish farming and bee-keeping. **The beginning of Agriculture ** The domestication of plants and animals began over 10,000 years ago during the Neolithic period **Why man domesticated plants and animals ** a. The increase of human population needed regular food supply -natural environment could no longer provide sufficient food. b. Climatic changes-increased drought, threatened plant life and animal life making natural food scarce. c. Competition for existing food in the natural resulted in inadequate wild food/over hunting of animals. d. Hunting and gathering was increasingly becoming tiresome. e. Calamities such as forest fires or floods sometimes destroyed vegetation or drove wild animals away. f. Development of settled life. Man had to stop a life of movement in search of food and water. g. Development of tools (microliths) e.g. sickles wooden plough, etc. h. Availability of varieties of indigenous crops e.g. wheat and barley. There are two theories that explain how agriculture started; 1. The Independent theory. Agriculture developed independently in different parts of the world especially along river valleys. ----- 26 ### 2. One Place Theory/Diffusion Theory-Crop growing and animal keeping developed among people of south East Asia. Then the idea spread to the rest of the world; Middle East, India, Central America, China, Southeast Asia 8,000 BC 7,000 BC 6,500 BC 6,000 BC 5,000 BC **CROP GROWING ** The transformation from hunting and gathering to growing of food crops was a gradual development. The first crops were grown by man in areas where they existed naturally. Crop growing first developed in the Fertile Crescent which is in the Middle East. Neolithic women noticed new grain plants grew when they accidentally spilled grain seeds. They tried scattering seeds on purpose it worked! ~ Animals often find plants in places with water / good soil - Hunters saw pattern ~ People stayed at sites, animals became tamer ~ People started weeding / irrigating so plants would grow better ~ Started saving seeds of better plants to plant ~ One season, nomads liked a site so much they stuck around ~ Stayed so long they harvested a crop and then saw it grow to harvest stage again ~ Groups learned to grow a crop from seed to harvest and then move on ~ Since men did the hunting and females were responsible for the food gathering, women learned how to plant seeds, as well as process and prepare the food. The above facts point out that the beginning of crop farming was accidental and mainly through trial and errorEarliest crops to be domesticated were barley, wheat, sorghum, millet, rice, maize, yams, cassava, potatoes, bananas and grapes. Since they grew in different environments, there were many centres of agricultural revolution. For example; ~ Middle East. ~ Indus valley in India. ~ Nile valley ~ The yellow river valley in china ~ The Danube Valley in Europe. **WHEAT ** Originally grown in south-west Asia Initial type was brittle wheat-then replaced by a non-brittle type in 7500BC called emmer Wheat then spread Mesopotamian plains by 6000 BC to Egypt by 3000BC, then to Mediterranean region, central Asia, India and southern Europe. **BARLEY ** The first cereal to be domesticated.Initially grew wildly at Mureybat on the Euphrates in Syria between 7000 - 6000 BC Another evidence of growth found at Ali kosh (Iran) and Jericho (Jordan)Then spread to Egypt at Fayum in 4500 BC. Then spread to India and china by about 2000 BC. **SORGHUM AND MILLET ** Originated from Africa at Hoggat in southern Algeria as early as 6000 BC ----- 27 ### Spread to West Africa to around Sudan area between Nile and Chad, by 1500 BC Finger millet originated in East Africa. Later the two spread to Asia and China. **RICE ** Originated in Asia where currently is a stable food- in Thailand at about 3500 BC Then spread to India, Europe and Japan The African variety was grown along the upper Niger around 1500 BC **MAIZE ** Origin- Central America at about 5000 BC at Tehuacan in Mexico. In Africa, was introduced by the Portuguese in 15thc. **YAMS ** The first root and tuber crop to be domesticated- 9000 BC in south East Asia. The African variety, the white guinea yam was grown in Ivory Coast. **DOMESTICATION OF ANIMALS ** The Dog was the first animal to be domesticated. The next animals were the sheep, Goats, cattle and camels. Animal domestication Began through establishment of ties between man and animals during hunting or when fetching water. **Dog ** Assisted humans in hunting, driving away dangerous animals and herding livestock **Goats ** The Goat was first domesticated in south west Asia in5000 BC.Evidence of this is found at Tell Abu Hureyra, Tepe Ali Kosh, and Deh Luren Khuzestan in south -west Iran. Also in Iraq, upper Tigris valley, turkey and south Jordan. Goat domestication was in Egypt in 5000 BC Sheep.Sheep was domesticated after the dog. Fossil evidence of sheep keeping has been found at Zawi Chemi Shanid in Iraq and dating to about 9000 BC. Sheep were also kept in Syria, Egypt and Saharan region then to West Africa. Sheep was also kept in Indus valley and yellow river valleys. **Cattle ** Cattle was first domesticated in south-west Asia as early as 5800BC in turkey and then in Iran and Iraq. It then spread to Ethiopia and North Africa from Asia. The short-horned cattle originated in Mesopotamia then spread to Africa and Europe. **Camel ** Though camels are associated with North Africa today, the original home has been traced to North America from where t spread to South America and Asia. The Asian and s. American species became the ancestors of the Alpaca and Illama.Two types of camels exist today- the one-humped (found in Middle East, northern china and Africa), and the two-humped camel (found in central Asia.) Camels were domesticated about 3000 BC to 2500 BC ----- 28 ### **Importance of the domestication of animals ** a) Some of them like cattle, sheep and goats provided man with regular food i.e. Milk, b) Animal Hides or skin were used as clothing and beddings c) The horns were used for communication. d) Hooves and bones of animals were used as containers and as drinking vessels. e) Some of the domesticated animals like the camel, donkey and horses were used for transport. f) Domestic animals like the oxen and the donkey were used to plough land for farming. g) The dog protected man against dangerous animals. h) Some of the domesticated animals produced manure which greatly improved agricultural produce. **EARLY AGRICULTURE IN MESOPOTAMIA** Mesopotamia was the land between the two rivers Tigris and Euphrates and lay in the present day irag. It was one of the centres of early civilization as early as 3000 BC. Food production in this region began as early as 8000 BC. **Reasons why early agriculture developed in Mesopotamia ** a) Availability of indigenous crops and animals in the region e.g. Wheat, barley, dates and goats, sheep and cattle. b) Existence of fertile land along river valleys of Tigris and Euphrates-consisting of deposited silt. c) Availability of water from rivers Tigris and Euphrates which was used for irrigation. Heavy rains experienced in the Zaggroes Mountains contributed to floods on the river valleys. d) Invention of farming tools e.g. Hoes, ploughs, sickles and seed drill which promoted agricultural activities. e) Existence of transport system in form of donkeys, canoes, river transport etc; which was instrumental in transportation of inputs and outputs. f) Political instability that enabled people to practice agriculture. The Sumerians are credited as the first people to use irrigation in growing crops. When the river water overflowed the banks during flooding, the Sumerians had the skill of controlling it through canals into the dry lands. (Canal or bucket irrigation). They also used farm implements to improve crop growing. For example the use of ox-drawn ploughs and seed drills pulled by oxen to replace stone hoes.Most of the people during the summer civilization earned their livelihood as farmers, craftsmen, fishermen and cattle breeders.Most of the land was in form of large estates owned by the rulers or the wealthy classes. The peasants were given small plots along with seeds, farm implements and animals in exchange for labour. ----- 29 ### The Crops grown included barley, wheat, vines, date, palms, grapes, olives, onions, figs, melons and cucumbers. Milk animals kept included goats and cow. Also ducks, pigs, geese and horses were kept. **Impact of early agriculture in Mesopotamia ** a) It led to settled life as people now needed to concentrate on farming. b) Food production increased. c) There was an increase in population along the river valleys due to plenty and regular food supply. d) There was emergence of city-states and urban centres. For example Ur, Uruk, Eridu, Nippur, Kish and Babylon. e) Surplus agricultural production led to development of trade between communities. f) There was increased specialization as all could not engage in farming. Some became craftsmen. g) Agriculture influenced writing and arithmetic. Management of estates required knowledge in accounts. The form of writing that was developed was known as cuneiform involving the use of stone tablets. h) The invention of the wheel by around 3000 BC. it was used in carts to transport farm produce, for making war chariots to transport soldiers and also in pottery (the potters wheel) i) The plough was also invented. The first ox-plough consisted of simply a tree trunk with one small branch protruding upwards with the other one upwards. The invention meant that only a few people were needed to cultivate land. j) There was the development of science and mathematics with the development of the first formulas for measuring time, distance and area. There was also development in the field of Astronomy. k) Religious practices also developed with the connection of most of the gods to agriculture in one way or another. For example, Ninurta was a god of floods. l) Development of law. A code of laws was compiled as a means of minimizing conflict in society- the Hammurabis code. **EARLY AGRICULTURE IN EGYPT ** As early as 7000 BC, people had already settled in the Nile valley. By around 5000 BC, the Egyptians had gradually adopted agriculture, departing from a hunter-gatherer society. **Reasons that enhanced development of early Agriculture in Egypt ** a) Availability of Water for irrigation and for domestic use from river Nile. b) Existence of fertile silt deposits and mud originating from the flooding of the Nile betweenJuly and October annually, which provided fertile soil for crop farming. c) Another advantage was that Egypt had a suitable warm climate for crop growing and ripening. ----- 30 ### d) The Use of shadoof Irrigation technology ensured production of food during drought seasons e) Presence of indigenous crops and animals from which domestication was made. Wheat and barley had already become indigenous to Egypt as were animals like sheep and goats. f) Foreign influence from South West Asia where farming was first practiced. The proximity of Egypt to Mesopotamia, the first centre of agricultural development ensured that she borrowed heavily from there. g) The Natural protection of the region from foreign attacks, since the Nile valley was protected by the Libyan Desert to the West, the Nubian Desert and Nile cataracts to the South and the Nile coast delta on the North. h) Political stability. i) High population created need for more food and provided farm labour. j) Availability of slave labour made crop farming a success. k) The invention and use of implements that included wooden sticks, knives and wooden hoes enabled the farmers to increase their yields. l) The existence of writing in Egypt helped the Egyptians to keep accurate records of seasons and volume of food. **The shadoof irrigation ** This was the method of irrigation used in Egypt during the drought season when the river was not flooding. A shadoof is a wooden device for lifting water from a river into the canals. It consisted of a long pole swinging up and down between two supporting wooden posts One end has a weight hanging on the pole while the other end has a skin bucket. The bucket is pulled down and dipped into the water by a person. It is caused to rise by the weight, once water has been filled. The other person empties the water into the canal to be drained into the fields.The Egyptians used farm implements like sticks, knives, axes, sickles and hoesAmong the crops planted in Egypt included wheat, barley, fruits, flax, beans, vegetables, cucumbers, onions, lentils, dates, figs and grapes. They used the broadcasting method. Shifting cultivation was also practiced before human population increased.They kept animals like sheep, goat, pigs, donkey, cattle and poultry. The state directed production. It controlled distribution of harvests as well as handicrafts. Government owned huge granaries and godowns which were used to store food. The king was regarded as the guardian who presided over food supply for all. The master of largesse was responsible for all the livestock in the country. In the year when agricultural production was poor, the head of the exchequer would take care of the distribution of seeds and livestock. **Effects of early agriculture in Egypt ** a) Due to improved farming, there was increased food production thus ensuring regular food supplies. b) There was Growth in population as food supply increased and became regular. ----- 31 ### c) Agriculture led to permanent settlement of people. As a result, their living standards improved dramatically as they reaped from farming. d) Agriculture promoted trade among the Egyptians. It led to production of surplus food that in turn was used to increase trading activities. e) Agriculture Led to rise of urban centres or towns in Egypt such as Memphiss akhetan, Aswan and Thebes along the Nile valley. f) Agriculture enabled some society members to specialize in other activities since a few could now produce enough food for all. Some engaged in hand crafts, geometry etc. g) Agriculture Led to emergence of government and related governing laws. h) Like the case of Mesopotamia, it led to the discovery of arithmetic, geometry, writing and calendar. These were used by the priests to keep records and make accurate prediction of annual foods. The Egyptian calendar is believed to be the earliest calendar in the world. i) It promoted social stratification or classes in Egyptian society. **Effects of early agriculture ** Summarize from the effects in Egypt and Mesopotamia. **THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN BRITAIN ** The agrarian revolution refers to rapid changes and improvements in the field of agriculture. Between 1750 and 1850 European countries underwent changes in agriculture. The changes were marked by A new system of land ownership Use of machines and new farming methods. The revolution took place first in Britain. **CHARACTERISTICS OF AGRICULTURE IN BRITAIN BEFORE THE ** **AGRARIAN REVOLUTION ** 1. Feudalism was practiced. **What is Feudalism? ** Loosely organized system of government in which local lords governed their own lands but owed military service and other support to a greater lord (nobility) The feudal kings had plenty of land; but they could not control it all. So they gave land to lords (nobility) in exchange for protection, loyalty and $.Nobility then gave Part of their land to the serfs (peasants) who would work on it and give part of their crops to the local (land) lord, for letting them farm the land. 2. Farmers practiced open-field system. In this system land was divided into three portions; I. Portion one- growing corn and wheat II. Portion two- for beans, barley and oats III. Portion three- left fallow to regain fertility. Such a system did not allow effective farming since land was not fully utilized. ----- 32 ### It also discouraged livestock farming since it allowed easy spread of livestock diseases. There was uncontrolled breeding in livestock instead of selective breeding since livestock grazed together. Fallow land and existence of Cattle and footpaths that crisscrossed the farms wasted a lot of land. 3. Stripping as a method of farming was used. The existence of strips meant that Land portions were small and discouraged the use of machines. 4. Use of simple tools and implements that included sticks, hoes and later ploughs. Cultivation was therefore on small scale with crop rotation being used as a method of improving fertility. It was however not effective. 5. Use of broadcasting method. Broadcasting method of planting led to wastage of seeds as it would be eaten by birds and rodents 6. Intercropping was practiced. The growing of two or more crops on the same piece of land. 7. Mixed farming. Livestock was allowed to graze on fallow land 8. Mono-cropping-planting the same type of crop year after on the same piece of land. NB; this was an inefficient system leading to low yields **CHANGES THAT MARKED THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN BRITAIN ** 1. Fallows were abolished and available lands used effectively. This was influenced by population that occasioned demand for more food. The farmers could no longer afford to leave land to regain fertility. 2. Application of new methods of farming. **Introduction and use of fertilizers in farms ** Lord Viscount Townsend discovered that clover added nitrogen to the soil and turnips could survive in winter and be used to feed cattle. Townsend introduced a new four- course crop rotation called the Norfolk system consisting of barley, clover, turnips and wheat on same plot for a four-year period. In 1843, John Bennet Lawes discovered the use of fertilizers and opened a superphosphate factory in London. 3. Use of farm machineries like the horse drawn drilling machine invented by Jethro Tull in 1701 which replaced the broadcasting method. Iron hoes were used instead of sticks, to prepare the ground. In 1925, the wooden plough was replaced with an iron plough. Patrick Bells invention of the mechanical reaper replaced the sickle in harvesting corn. Andrew Meikles invented a mechanical thresher in 1876 which could cut and bind corn at the same time. The use of machines changed agriculture from a small scale to a large-scale business. 4. Intercropping to retain land fertility. E.g. of maize and beans. This practice enabled farmers to realize more yields. 5. Application of scientific principles to farming. For example, Selective breeding of livestock invented by Robert Bakewell (1725-1795). He was able to develop the short ----- 33 ### horn, Devon, the Hereford, Aberdeen Angus and Ayrshire. He also improved sheep breeds such as the Leicester, Shropshire, Suffolk and the oxford. Pig varieties- the Yorkshire, Berkshire and Tamworth breeds 6. Fencing of farms/land enclosure system; the introduction of land enclosures put to an end to strip farming. This was a demand of the rich landlords that land should be enclosed by fencing. The enclosure act enabled rich people to acquire more land. As a result more land was put under production and more land could be ploughed by one farmer **Positive effects of the land enclosure system introduced in Britain ** a) It created large farms which allowed use of horse drill and crop -rotation. b) The farms were easily managed and Farmers could specialize in crop or animal production. c) Farmers could use their title deeds to borrow money from financial firms for the improvement of their farms. **Effects of the land enclosure movement on the peasant farmers in Britain ** a. The creation of large farms led to landlessness among the peasant farmers, b. Peasant farmers sold off their land to the rich farmers because they could not afford to cultivate the land. c. The land enclosure movement led to displacement of peasant farmers from their land and hence they migrated to towns/ caused rural -urban migration. d. The rural-urban migration of peasant farmers led to overcrowding in urban centres/ congestion in urban centres. e. The land enclosure movement caused emigrations of the peasants to other countries such as USA, Canada, Australia, new Zealand and south Africa f. The poor farmers were exploited, as they had to sell their labour to farmers and to the factories / exploitation of the poor peasants labour force. 7. The royal agricultural society. It was established in 1838. Through the journals of the society, new ideas and techniques of farming were publicized all over the country. As a result, many farmers began to adopt the modern methods of farming. **CAUSES OF AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN BRITAIN ** 1. Land consolidation; the introduction of land enclosures which put to an end to strip farming. As a result more land was under production and more land could be ploughed by one farmer. 2. Development of new methods of livestock breeding; more scientific methods of breeding livestock were developed. They involved selective breeding in which animals with suitable characteristics were maintained in the herds. 3. Development of new tools for farming which helped to increase agricultural productivity .e.g. use of seed drill, Rotterdam plough, threshing machine and tractors. ----- 34 ### 4. Development of new methods of maintaining soil fertility e.g. the new crop rotation system allowed the continued use of land without exhausting its fertility. Chemical fertilizers were also produced. 5. Development of agricultural research in universities and research institutes assisted in improvement of soils and crop yields. Newspapers and agricultural journals helped to spread the results of this research to farmers. 6. Impact of industrial revolution which provided the agricultural sector with inputs and market. 7. Population increase led to high demand for food. **EFFECTS OF THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN BRITAIN ** 1. Food security for the population of Britain due to improved farming methods. 2. There was Growth of population in Britain due to food security lowered mortality rates and increased life expectancy. 3. There was Growth of capital/plantation farming to replace subsistence farming. Due to the enclosure act, ownership of large farms was encouraged and subsequently mechanization/plantations were set up. 4. Poor farmers who could not afford fencing lost their land. Capital farming therefore led to emergence of landless peasants as large tracts of land were consolidated in enclosures. The poor peasants were compelled to migrate to urban areas where they were subjected to poor living conditions. 5. Trade expanded locally and internationally. When farming was commercialized, Britain expanded trade thus boosting her economy. 6. Growth of a working class. The landless peasants sought wage employment on farms or in towns in the emerging new industries. Thus a class of workers began to emerge. 7. Transport systems like roads and railways improved. They were used to transport agricultural products to the market and raw materials to industries. 8. Industries benefited from agricultural raw materials/ develop ment of industries. A number of machines produced by industries were also used in agriculture to boost production. 9. Emigration of British national to other parts of the world. Some of the landless peasants migrated to USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. 10. Intensification of scientific research by the royal agricultural society to carter for the expanding agricultural sector. **THE SPREAD OF AGRARIAN REVOLUTION ** From Britain the revolution spread to other parts of Europe and Americas and then the rest of the world. Ideas like crop rotation, use of machines, selective breeding of livestock and use of fertilizers spread into continental Europe from Britain. The governments encouraged agricultural science and research. ----- 35 ### The work of Louis Pasteur (1890-1960) a Frenchman discovered that disease are caused by bacteria and sterilization of food such as milk through boiling keeps it bacteria-free for long time **THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN THE USA ** The Americas was the origin of many crops in the world the American Indians were subsistence farmers growing crops like yams, potatoes, maize (corn), cocoa, tomatoes, cotton, tobacco, beans and cassava.Political and religious differences in Europe in the 17 [th] c forced many Europeans to settle in America as was also the enclosure system in Britain. Craftsmen and labouerers also moved in search of better life. The immigrant settlers came with horses, sheep, cattle, pigs, fowls, seeds and plants from Europe. Some of them participated in improving the machines that were already in use in Europe. For example: a. 1837- John Deere a young blacksmith from Illinois invented a steel plough b. 1837- Cyrus McCormick established a factory in Chicago to produce reapers c. 1837- Daniel Massey produced a similar machine in Canada. d. 1792- Elly Whitney invented the cotton gin and cotton picker American scientists also developed the refrigerator. For example, John Perkins (1766- 1849) an American inventor patented the first prototype refrigerator in England in 1834. The first American patent for a refrigerator was awarded to John Gorrie (1803-1855) in 1851.1859- Ferdinand Carre, a Frenchman invented the absorption system in a refrigerator. This was a major milestone in preservation of meat and other foods in America.Several agricultural zones emerged in America due to differences in soil fertility and climate: a. North-Eastern parts- Ranching and dairying b. The south- cotton zone. c. Central region-maize. d. North-west wheat There was large scale mechanized agriculture especially after the abolition of slave trade. Most cash crops were grown to provide raw materials to European industries. Tobacco was grown in Virginia and Maryland. Rice and indigo were grown in Georgia and South Carolina. Cattles rearing was done in Texas.Transport development also enhanced agricultural development. For example, water transport using the great lakes, railway and road transport.Alexander graham bell invented the telegraph to enhance communication. USA also invested in the field of science and research which boosted agriculture with better hybrid seeds and different strains of livestock. **FACTORS THAT FACILITATED THE DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICUL-TURE ** **IN AMERICA BEFORE 1800 ** a. The enclosure system in Britain led to the Settlement of enterprising European emigrants who wished to make a living through agriculture/Determination of European immigrants to succeed as farmers as there was no other source of livelihood. European ----- 36 ### immigration into the region also led to population increase and demand for more food. The immigrants also introduced new crops and new methods of farming leading to agricultural development b. Scientific research made it possible to improve strains of crops to resist diseases, to develop superior animal breeds and to develop new food crops e.g. Soya beans into artificial meat, etc. c. Mechanization; there was extensive use of machines to improve production e.g. steel plough, use of reapers, cotton gin etc. d. The presence of cheap means of transport e.g. Erie Canal, roads, railway, etc speeded up the transportation of goods and raw materials. e. The invention of the cotton gin in 1793 led to increased cotton acreage. f. Environmental influence on the farmers through experience leading to agricultural zoning e.g. maize in the centre, wheat in the south and beef rearing in the west/Presence of suitable soils for different types of crops such as tobacco, cotton and wheat. g. Government recognition of individual land ownership (the Homestead Act 1760) encouraged settlers to farm. **EFFECTS OF THE AGRARIAN REVOLUTION IN USA ** Fuelled by peasants who emigrated after they were driven out of Europe by the land enclosure movement, USA became the worlds leading producer of agricultural products. The effects of the revolution were as follows: a) It led to diversification of agriculture through the introduction of new farm animals and crops. b) The new inventions in farm machinery enabled American farmers to bring more land under cultivation. For example the steel plough invented by John Deere and reaping machine by Cyrus McCormick. c) Food production especially of wheat and maize, increased due to the use of new farming methods like use of fertilizers and hybrid seeds. d) The agrarian revolution led to expansion of agricultural related industries. e) Mechanization of agriculture replaced slaves and other labourers at the farms. Many people went to search for employment in urban areas. f) The expansion of food production led to increase in trade between USA and Western Europe thus boosting USA economy. g) The transport system was improved to enable transportation of farm inputs to farms and agricultural produce to market. h) The revolution contributed to the enhancement of research and scientific inventions especially on the field of agriculture. **FOOD SITUATION IN AFRICA AND THE REST OF THE THIRD WORLD ** Third world refers to the less developed countries in Africa, Asia and South America. Many of these third world countries have food shortages and even continue to have weak economies upto date. ----- 37 ### **Causes to food shortage in Africa ** a. Rapid population growth which has put a lot of pressure on the available food resources leading to shortages b. Poor land use and agricultural practices. Many farmers still depend on traditional farming methods, for example, not applying fertilizers, pesticides or mechanization, thus producing low yields. c. Some developing countries experience adverse weather conditions such as floods and long periods of drought. Since these countries practice rain-fed agriculture, food production has been affected d. Overemphasis on cash crops at the expense of food crops has contributed to low food production. In Kenya for example, large farms concentrate on growth of flowers, tea and coffee with food crop farming being largely for subsistence. e. Rural-urban migration, especially among the young people has deprived the rural areas of the badly needed labour force for food production f. Lack of adequate capital for agricultural development. Low income/poverty. The farmers lack enough funds to purchase farm inputs. g. Political instability in some African countries undermines food production. For example in Ethiopia, Sudan, DRC, Burundi and Rwanda. This has prevented people from concentrating on food production. h. Decline in growing drought resistant crops. Crops like cassava and millet have been abandoned due to attitude thus causing artificial shortage of specific food. i. Poor and inadequate storage facilities have led to food wastage. In Kenya by 2001, the country was losing up to nine million bags of grain per year as a result of poor storage methods. j. Poor transport network leads to uneven distribution of food. It also discourages farmers from producing more. k. Over reliance on food aid and forms of aid has created a dependence attitude in many African countries. Some communities have become complacent about looking for a permanent solution to their food problems. l. Poor economic planning on the part of the government with many countries putting a lot of emphasis on other development projects at the expense of agricultural and food production. m. Poor land tenure systems resulting in low productivity. For example where a few European farmers own large tracts of land but only exploiting a small portion of the expansive farms. n. The HIV/AIDS pandemic contributed to food shortages since the scourge leads to death of many of the work force in their prime years. **Effects of food shortages ** a. Loss of life. Many people have lost their lives. For example the Ethiopian famine in 1984 led to the deaths of thousands of people. ----- 38 ### b. Increased suffering among millions of people in Africa due to deficiency diseases like kwashiorkor and marasmus. c. Food shortage has created social problems in societies. For example cattle raids by the karamojong and Maasai during the periods of famine. Even other anti-social problems like stealing food in rural areas can be attributed to inadequate food supply. d. Sometimes famine and drought has forced people to flee their home countries thus causing refugee problems in the receiving countries. e. Lack of food hampers efforts towards economic development. It Affects education since famine stricken children cannot concentrate on learning. There is Use of scarce foreign exchange to import food. f. It has created dependence on food aid from rich countries. Even some of the genetically created foods are tested in third world countries. Such foods have unknown side-effects. g. It has adversely affected agricultural-based industries.e.g sugar industries.-inevitably thisleads to unemployment. h. It has led to Political instability as people lose confidence in the governments that cannot feed them. **Solutions to food shortage in Africa ** a. Land reclamation thus increasing land under agriculture. This may increase food production. b. Re-formulation of agricultural policies so that there is a shift from a concentration on cash crops to paying more attention on food crops. c. Provision of extension services to farmers e.g. information on storage, preservation of farm produce and other forms of advice. d. Revision of the land tenure system- redistribution of land / land reforms as case is in china. e. Development of agro-based industries which will become market to agricultural raw materials like coffee, tea, etc. f. Creation of political stability to enable mobilization of people to self-sufficiency in food production. g. Relentless campaign against killer disease such as AIDS. h. Infrastructural development/ in transport, communication, storage and marketing. i. Environmental conservation measures which may help curb drought spread and ensure sufficient rains./ protection of catchments areas j. Family planning so that people only have children they can be able to feed, cloth and shelter. k. Demand for food to feed the growing population. **STEPS KENYA HAS TAKEN TO SOLVE FOOD SHORTAGES ** a) Extensive research has been carried out in research institutions such as the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI) producing hybrid maize such as Katumani that ----- 39 ### grows in drier areas. ICIPE and ILRI researches in pests and disease that affect both livestock and crops in the country. b) Introduction of genetically engineered crops and animal s into the agricultural sector. These crops, developed mainly at JKUAT and KARI are resistant to diseases and pests. c) Agricultural training institutions have been established to train experts such as agricultural officers, veterinary doctors and horticultural experts. Agriculture is also taught in schools- to equip learners with new and better techniques of farming that could boost production. d) People are being educated about the need for family planning so that families have only number of children whom they can feed and provide for. e) The government has formulated a food security policy to enhance production of food in the country. For example a minimum amount of cereals in the government silos has been set up with urgent measures to top up outlined. **THE PEOPLE OF KENYA UP TO THE 19THCENTURY ** **INTRODUCTION ** There is immense evidence to confirm that east Africa was the cradle of humankind. Archaeological evidence (for example, the tools found at kobi for a, Olorgesaillie, kariandusi, Mtongwe, around Lake Victoria, lukenya hills, near lake Naivasha) show that Kenya was inhabited by Stone Age people. There is also evidence of use of iron in Kenya dating back as AD270 e.g. at Urewe near Ngiya in Siaya and in Kwale. **THE KHOISAN ** According to oral traditions, the earliest people to occupy Kenya were of the Khoisan stock. They had similar features like the Khoi khoi and the san of South Africa, the Sandawe and Hadza of Tanzania. They all spoke a language with a clicking sound. **Cultural aspects of the Khoisan ** a) They Spoke a language with a clicking sound like the khoi-khoi of south Africa b) They were nomadic people c) They gathered the wild fruit in the wild and dug up tubers and roots for their foods d) They used stone tools in addition to bows and arrows. e) They fished in rivers and lakes using harpoons f) They made use of rock shelters and caves. g) They buried the dead. h) Made and used pottery. NB- such evidence of the culture of the Khoisan has been found in Gambles and Njoro river caves near Nakuru.These pioneering inhabitants of Kenya disappeared maybe after being subdued and overcome by the powerful incoming Bantus and nilotes.However, there exist some remnants of these hunter-gatherer communities in the western highlands of rift valley. They speak the language of the group near them like kalenjin (okiek), Maasai (Dorobo), Onguye and Okuro in western Kenya. ----- 40 ### **THE CUSHITES ** They existed in two groups: a) The southern Cushites b) The eastern Cushites. **The southern Cushites ** They might have entered present day Kenya through northern Kenya and seem to have originated from the Ethiopian highlands. Since they were pastoralists, they must have been looking for better pasture for their livestock.Around 2500 and 3000 years ago, they were already occupying the grasslands of the Kenya highlands cultivating food crops like sorghum, millet and rearing long horned humpless cattle. They even extended upto Tanzania. They included the Iraqi, Boni and Burungi of Tanzania, The Dahallo or Sanye of the lower Tana (the remaining southern Cushites in Kenya). Some were later absorbed by the incoming groups. **The Eastern Cushites ** They include the Borana, Somali, Oromo, Gabra, Rendille and Burji. They originated either from Ethiopia or Somalia moving and settling into Kenya around 2000 and 1000 years ago due to the following reasons; a) Escaping from clan or family feuds. b) There was population pressure in their area of origin. c) They were in search of better grazing lands. d) They were fleeing the outbreak of disease that affected both people and animals. e) They were escaping famine and drought. f) They fled constant attacks from their neighbours such as the Somali. g) The migrated to satisfy their spirit of adventure. **THE OROMO ** They came in the 16thcentury from Ethiopia. Initially they settled on the eastern shores of Lake Turkana. They later moved south pushing the Mijikenda and the Pokomo out of the Shungwaya to occupy Malindi and Kilifi. Today they occupy the southern part of Tana River and are neighbours to the Pokomo. **Effects of migration and settlement of the Oromo in Kenya** a) They inter-married with the people they came into contact with e.g. Somali, Pokomo and Borana. b) Their settlement in Kenya led to expansion of trade. c) Their settlement led to increased conflict between communities over resources e.g. pasture and water. d) Displacement and redistribution of people in the area where they settled e.g. the Oromo pushed the Bantu from the Shungwaya region. e) Assimilation of some communities they came into contact with e.g. the Oromo vs. Somali. f) Cultural exchange e.g. neighbouring communities adopted Islam. ----- 41 ### g) Settlement in high agricultural potential areas e.g. river valleys encouraged some of them to practice crop farming. h) Expansion of agriculture due to demand of agricultural produce. **THE BORANA ** They are also Oromo speaking people whose origin is southern Ethiopia. Their migration into Kenya was due to escaping the Menelik Wars of Conquest in 1897 and who had imposed heavy taxes on them. They represent some of the most recent migrations into Kenya end as late as 1900 when more Borana groups fled into Kenya from Somali running away from the war between the Somali Nationalists and the British. Today the Borana occupy the area north of the Tana River. **THE SOMALI ** They originated from Mogadishu where they were living by 10th century A.D. They begun moving southwards into Kenya around that time maybe due to the Oromo threat or they were looking for pasture for their livestock.The Somali represent the largest single group of eastern Cushites in Kenya. **Results of Cushitic migration into Kenya ** a) There was massive warfare during the migrations leading to killing of many people in the process. For example, there was constant warfare between the Somali and the Oromo. i) They displaced some of the communities which they came into contact with e.g. the Oromo pushed the Mijikenda from the Shungwaya region in AD 1500 AND 1600. b) They intermarried with those people they interacted with e.g. the some of the Pokomo intermarried with the Borana. c) Their settlement led to expansion / development of trade between them and their neighbours e.g. they traded with the Samburu and the Maasai. d) There was cultural exchange between them and the Bantu and Nilotic neighbours. E.g. the Taboo against eating Fish among the Bantu, the age set system and circumcision has origin from the Cushites. e) The migrations led to population pressure in the region. f) Adoption of some agricultural practices from the Bantu. g) There was redistribution of population in Kenya. The Mijikenda for example were scattered at Shungwaya. **THE BANTU SPEAKERS ** Introduction The term Bantu refers to group of people who speak the same or similar language with common word NTU which means a person. The Bantu-speaking groups include the Luhyia, Kisii, Kuria, Kikuyu, Akamba, Meru, Aembu, Taita, Agiryama, Digo in Kenya and Pokomo, as well as many other smaller groupsTheir original homeland was somewhere between eastern Nigeria and the Cameroon (Congo Basin). ----- 42 ### They then moved southwards towards present day Democratic Republic of Congo (around 500 BC the Bantu were living in the Congo forest). This became a major dispersal point from where the Bantus moved in four major waves. Of these waves, the two waves that account for settle of the Bantu in Kenya are the ones moving south- eastwards through the area west of LakeVictoria (a 2nddispersal point for Bantus). From here they dispersed in two groups; A. some group passed through present-day Uganda, some settling there (Baganda, Banyoro, Batoro), proceeding into kenya to form the western Bantu(Luhyia, Kisii, Kuria and abasuba) B. From the west Victoria dispersal point a group moved and entered east Africa at appoint south of Lake Victoria and then proceeded eastwards across northern Tanzania to a dispersal point between Taita hills and mt. Kilimanjaro. Some settled in Tanzania (Chagga, nyamwezi, sukuma, Kuria, haya, Yao, Segeju, Zaramo).the rest of the groupproceeded northwards to the coast upto Shungwaya (another dispersal point). These were the eastern Bantus. **REASONS FOR THE BANTU MIGRATION ** The reasons for the migration of the Bantu are not known but they most likely included the following; a) Drought and famine: This broke out because the climate in their cradle land had become unreliable/unpredictable. b) Population increase which resulted into population pressure, e.g. they became overpopulated in their cradle land. c) The constant attacks (external pressure) from stronger tribes in West Africa and the Nile valley; also due to the migration of the Arabs, who were believed to be more hostile, into West Africa. d) Internal conflicts from the Bantu tribes: These conflicts concerned the ownership of agriculture area, the shortage of grazing lands and watering areas. e) Epidemics and diseases/natural calamities, e.g. earthquakes, over flooding of rivers like river Niger, sickness, diseases such as Nagana caused by Tsetse flies, sleeping sickness e.t.c. f) Search for fertile land: Since they were predominantly farmers, the Bantu migrated in order to find more land which could be more fertile than the cradle land, which could no longer support them. g) Love for adventure: They moved due to their desire for adventure, i.e. they wanted to find out what was happening in other areas. h) Group influence: Some moved because they had seen their relatives and friends move. i) Need for water and pasture for their animals forced them to move. j) The Bantu migrated in order to export their iron-working culture. They had discovered the knowledge of iron working and had invented iron tools. These iron tools had ----- 43 ### transformed the agricultural sector by making the clearing of land for cultivation faster and more efficient. **The western Bantu ** They include Luhyia, Kisii, Kuria and abasuba and settled in western part of kenya thus their name. **Abaluhyia ** ~ The Abaluhyia community is made up of eighteen sub-groups. The sub-groups which constitute the community have a common background, common customs and speak closely related dialects of the same language. ~ According to Abaluhyia tradition, communities used to hold criminal tribunals at the junctions of footpaths. The area at the junction of footpaths was known as Uluyia or a meeting point and it is claimed that the name Abaluhyia is derived from this. Another version states that in a polygamous home the courtyard outside the main fathers house is called Luhyia. All the children are referred as children of one Luhyia and hence the name Abaluhyia. ~ Most of the Luhyia sub-groups point to mt. elgon dispersal point as their origin. The settlement of the Abaluhyia into Kenya dates back to 300 AD. By 1750 AD, many groups had settled in present day Bukhayo, Marama, Tiriki, Bunyore, Wanga and Maragoli. ~ They absorbed some groups they found in the area. Also, their interaction with the Maasai led to establishment of clans like the Abashimuli among the Idakho. The Marachi, Kisa and Samia interacted with the Luo. Abagusii ~ Abagusii traditions acknowledge a close relationship with the following people: the Abakuria, Abalogoli, Ababukusu, Abasuba, Agikuyu, Ameru, Aembu, Ambeere and the Akamba. Their tradition has it that on their way from the country which they call Msiri they were accompanied by the Baganda and the Basoga besides the above groups. ~ The Abagusii and the Abalogoli migrated southwards following the River Nzoia valley and arrived near Lake Victoria between 1490 and 1520. Following an easterly course along the lake shore, they settled at the head of Goye Bay in Yimbo location of Nyanza with their homeland spreading across present day Ulowa, Sare and Unyejra at the foot of Ramogi hill. Luo migrants in 1550 AD found them settled in this general area and pushed them from alego to Kisumu where they lived upto 1600AD. ~ Their migration from Kisumu to Kano was motivated by drought in the area.. However, their eastward migration was checked by the Maasai and the Kipsigis ~ By the 18thcentury, they had settled in the Kisii highlands positively interacting with the neighboring Luo, Maasai and Kipsigis in terms of trade. Why the Abagusii remained in the Kano plains for too long before settling in the Kisii highlands. a) They were obstructed by the Kipsigis who were migrating westwards. b) The Maasai were also quite wild/hostile. ----- 44 ### c) The plains favored their activity of livestock grazing. d) Lack of a strong warrior group to fight their expansionist wars against the warring neighbors. **Abakuria ** ~ The origin of the name Kuria is a thorny point in the Abakuria history. The major Abakuria sub-tribes such as Abanyabasi, Abatimbaru, Abanyamongo, Abakira, Abairegi and Abagumbe have traditions to the effect that their ancestor was Mokuria (or Mukuria) that lived in Msiri. His descendants migrated from Msiri and after many years of wandering on the other side of Lake Victoria; they eventually reached and settled in the present Bukuria By 1800AD,) in south Nyanza.) ~ According to this tradition, the Abakuria have been divided from time immemorial into two families: the Abasai of the elder wife of Mokuria and the Abachuma of the younger wife. ~ The Abakuria are related to Abalogoli of Abaluhyia and Abagusii and trace same origin at mt. elgon dispersal point. ~ The Abakuria people appear to have sprung from too many directions to have a common historical origin, although a number of clans claim to have come from Msiri. ~ Among the Abakuria today are found people who were originally from Kalenjin, Maasai, Bantu and Luo speaking communities. The Abakuria adopted the practice of age set organization and circumcision from the southern Cushites **Abasuba ** ~ The name Suba means the people who are always wandering. ~ The Suba migrated into their current locations beginning in the mid-1700s. They came from the region just west of Lake Victoria and settled on the islands. ~ The Suba migrated from Uganda and settled on the two Lake Victoria islands of Rusinga and Mfangano, and are believed to be the last tribe to have settled in Kenya. Other subgroups migrated and settled on the shores of Lake Victoria in the early 18th century. ~ The Suba are descendants of one wave of the Bantu migration from Central Africa over the last 1500 to 1800 years. In the 16th century, it appears, small family groups related to the Ganda people on the western side of the lake migrated across Lake Victoria on boats to settle on Rusinga Island and other islands near what is now Kenya and Tanzania. ~ The Suba are descendants of one wave of the Bantu migration from Central Africa over the last 1500 to 1800 years. In the 16th century, it appears, small family groups related to the Ganda people on the western side of the lake migrated across Lake Victoria on boats to settle on Rusinga Island and other islands near what is now Kenya and Tanzania. ~ Linguistically, the Suba are highly influenced by the neighbouring Luo, to the point of a language shift having taken place among large portions of the mainland Suba. ----- 45 ### ~ The remaining speakers of the Suba language are mostly elderly residents on the island of Mfangano. **The eastern Bantu ** They are divided into Highland or Mt. Kenya Bantu and Coastal Bantu. **Coastal Bantu ** They include the Taita, Pokomo and Mijikenda.From the west Victoria dispersal point their first movement was upto Taita hills, where the Taita remained. The Mijikenda and Pokomo proceeded northwards to the coast upto Shungwaya (another dispersal point). The main reason for the Shungwaya dispersal was the Oromo attack In AD 1600. **Pokomo ** They moved from Shungwaya following river Tana interacting with the Cushites like the Oromoand Somali. **Mijikenda ** The name means Nine Clans comprising of the Kauma, Giriama, Duruma, Chonyi, Jibana, Kambe, Ribe, Rabai and Digo.From the Shungwaya dispersal point,(forced out by the Oromo/Somali southwards expansionist attacks), they settled in fortified villages mainly due to security concerns. Each of the nine groups settled in their own separate ridge referred to as Kaya fortified with thorny trees.By the 19th, the Mijikenda were established as middlemen during the long distance trade between the Akamba and the coastal Waswahili. **The highland Bantu ** Examples of highland Bantus include Agikuyu, Ameru, Aembu, Ambeere and the **Akamba** They are also products of the Shungwaya dispersion. **Agikuyu** ~ The largest single group of the eastern group. ~ While the Kikuyu can be found throughout Kenya, the heaviest concentration being in Central Province, known as the traditional Kikuyu homeland. The Kikuyu traditionally believe that a man, Gikuyu, was the founder of the tribe. He had a wife named Mumbi, who gave birth to nine (plus one) daughters. The daughters married and had their own families, retaining a domineering role in Kikuyu society. ~ It was in Mukurwe wa Gathanga division of Nyeri district where an identifiable beginning for the modern Kikuyu people is defined. ~ Ancestors of the Kikuyu arrived in Kenya during the Bantu migrations of 1200-1600 AD. The Agikuyu seem to have moved southwest from the coast at around 1400AD also running away from hostile Oromo. They followed Tana River with some groups falling off and settling in different places. For example the Tharaka settled in the east and the Ambeere settled in the southwest. The main group proceeded upto the confluence of rivers Tana and Thika (Mukurwe wa Gathanga. They spread and settled in Kiambu and Nyandarua from Muranga. ----- 46 ### ~ The key event in their migration and settlement was military conflict with and defeat of the Gumbapeople by the Mathira and Tetu people, allied with the Athi and the Maasai in the early 1800's. ~ They displaced or absorbed the original inhabitants-the Dorobo (Athi) and Gumba who were a hunter- gatherer community. ~ Settlement of the Nyeri plains took place after the British moved the Maasai from the area. The Kikuyu were in Kabete by around 1850, Ruiru about 1900. ~ They heavily interacted with the Maasai and Cushites in the area. **Describe the relationship between Athi and the Agikuyu ** a) The Athi were the original inhabitants of the land where the Agikuyu live presently. b) The Agikuyu claim they bought the land from the Athi. c) The Agikuyu also acquired some cultural practices from the Athi e.g. circumcision, clitoridectomy and age set system. d) The Athi acted as middlemen in the trade between the Agikuyu, Maasai and the coastal people. **Akamba ** ~ They point to the area around mt Kilimanjaro as their original homeland. ~ From here they moved to Taita Hills before reaching Tsavo West. They followed the Banks of Athi River in the 15thcentury one group crossing Athi into Ulu. Another group moved south to the Galana River and settled in the region around chyulu hills north of mt. Kilimanjaro ~ By around mid 16thcentury a group of the Akamba had settled in the Mbooni hills near Machakos. ~ Due to environmental influence, the Akamba near Mbooni began to practice agriculture before migrating to iveti, kilungu and masaku. Those that moved to drier Chyulu hills became hunters. The Kitui group adopted pastoralism and hunting and participated in long distance trade. **The Ameru ** ~ Their original homeland is claimed to Mbwa, located somewhere at the coast on manda island. The Shungwaya dispersal might have led to the pushing of the Ameru to tigania and igembe regions at around 1400AD. They crossed the Tana River with the Tharaka sections of Agikuyu and settled to the east of tana. The Chuka section settled in the west of river tana. The mwimbi, imenti, tigania and igembe also settled west of the Tana River. ~ According to tradition, the Meru and Agikuyu were initially migrating as one group and separated at around 15thc and 16thc. **Effects of the Bantu Migration ** The results of the Bantu migration were both positive and negative. ----- 47 ### **Positive results ** 1. Introduction of iron working the use of iron tools in the interior of East Africa where peoplewere at first using stone tools. There was an increase in food production. 2. Introduction of new crops e.g. yams, bananas: the Bantu introduced and increased the knowledge of food and extensive crop cultivation. Earlier on, the inhabitants of East Africa were food gatherers, but with iron smelting and its results, food production seriously started. 3. The absorbed other tribes e.g. the gathers: This led to widespread Bantu languages of NTUprefix in East Africa. 4. They introduced centralized administration: They introduced a centralized system of government whereby the king acted as the overall ruler, under who were the other chiefs, down to the lay person. This was done in western Kenya by the Wanga. 5. Introduced a system of building permanent homes: They opened new land to settlement in families, clans and villages. 6. The knowledge of iron smelting which the Bantu introduced led to the making of hoes and pangas for tilling and clearing land, the bows, arrows and spears for defense and protection. 7. They introduced subsistence agriculture, whereby they grew enough food for home consumption, and the rest could be kept in case of shortages, or be exchanged in barter trade. Negative effects 1. The Bantu migration led to depopulation: This was caused by the frequent attacks made on the Bantu by Somali and Oromo, or by the Bantu against the people East Africa for land, through wars. 2. There was loss of culture due to cultural absorption: This was brought about due to Bantu intermarrying with the non- Bantu peoples, whom they came across. 3. There was transformation of languages into new ones: This led to the dying down of some of the Bantu languages, while others remained. **The Nilotic speakers ** Nilotes is a term originating from the word Nile. The origin of these groups is associated with the Nile River. These are the second largest group after the Bantu. They are divided into three groups; a) River-lake nilotes- the Luo. b) Plains nilotes- the Maasai, Tunkana and Samburu. c) Highlands nilotes- kalenjin groups of the Marakwet, Tugen, Nandi, Kipsigis, Elgeyo, Pokot and Sabaot **River-lake nilotes ** They are sometimes referred to as the southern Luos to differentiate them from other riverlake nilotes in Uganda and Sudan like the Dinka, Shilluk, Bor, Anwak, Alur, Acholi, Jopaluo, Padhola, Nuer and Luo of Uganda. ----- 48 ### They are believed to have originated from Bahr-el-Ghazal region of southern Sudan. They then migrated to Pubungu Pakwach in Uganda where they settled by 1450 AD. They later moved into Kenya. Their arrival caused the displacement of many Bantu- speaking peoples, notably the Gusii, Kuria and Luhya, who were forced into the highlands east and north of the lake. **Why did they leave Bahr-el-Ghazal region? ** a) They might have been Escaping from clan or family feuds. b) There was population pressure in their area of origin. c) They were nomadic pastoralists in search of better grazing lands and water for their livestock d) They were fleeing the outbreak of disease that affected both people and animals. e) They were escaping famine and drought. f) They fled constant attacks from their neighbours. g) They were also looking for better fishing grounds. h) The migrated to satisfy their spirit of adventure. Their migration into Kenya began in the 15thc. they moved in four distinct groups; a) Joka-jok- people of jok. Was the first group to enter into kenya from Uganda. They first settled at Ramogi hills in Kadimo Siaya district displacing the earlier Gusii settlers. Two of Joks sons fled to south Nyanza to form the Karachuonyo and Wanjare clans. Thisgroup spread to Sakwa, Alego, Asembo and other parts of Nyanza. b) Joka-Owiny. Owiny moved from Uganda to settle in Sogoma in Alego with his group in the 17thc. he was both a great fighter and leader (Ruoth). He came to be known as Owiny Sigoma and his people Joka Ruoth. This group settled in Kisumu, Nyakach and South Nyanza. c) Joka-Omolo. They came from northern Banyoro and settled temporarily in Ibanda and Bukoli before moving to Ugenya and Gem. They displaced the Abagusii and Abalogoli out of Yimbo. They spread to Alego and then across winam gulf into south nyanza. d) The abasuba. They are Bantu in origin but are associated with the Luo. They are a mixture of Bantu refugees from Uganda who intermarried with the Luo. They settled in the Lake Victoria islands of Mfangano and Rusinga and also in gwasi area. They adopted Luo culture. **Effects of Luo Migration ** a) The settlement of the Luo in Kenya led to increase in population in the area. b) Their arrival intensified conflicts between them and other communities in the area over limited resources. For example they displaced the western Bantu like the Abaluhyia, **Abakuria and Abagusii ** c) There were intermarriages between the Luo and the Luyia and Maasai groups in the area. d) The Luo assimilated some Luhyia communities living in the area. ----- 49 ### e) Their settlement enhanced trade with different communities; they exchanged livestock products for grains with the Luyia. f) The Luo adopted agriculture as a result of interacting with the Bantus who were farmers. **Plain Nilotes ** They include the Maasai and Samburu (Maa speakers), Iteso, Turkana and Njemps. The Plain Nilotes entered Kenya at around AD 1000 from an area north of Lake Turkana. **Why they moved into Kenya: ** a) Drought and famine that broke out in their cradleland. b) Population increase which resulted into population pressure in their cradle land. c) The external pressure from stronger neighbours. d) Internal conflicts from among other Nilotic groups concerning the ownership of grazing lands and watering areas. e) Epidemics and diseases like sleeping sickness affecting both humans and animals. f) They moved due to their desire for adventure, i.e. they wanted to find out what was happening in other areas. g) Need for water and pasture for their animals forced them to move. Their first point of settlement was near Mount Moroto in eastern Uganda by AD 1000. From here, several groups like the Jie, Iteso, Turkana and karamojong emerged, with the Iteso settling in Uganda in 17thc before expanding into western Kenya by 19thc. The Turkana extended northwards to their present area. **The effects of the migration and settlement of the iteso ** a) The settlement of the iteso in their present region led to increase in population in the area. b) It intensified conflicts between them and other commu nities in the area over limited resources. c) There were intermarriages between the iteso and the Luyia groups in the area. d) Cultural interaction giving rise to enriched cultures. e) Some people were displaced from the area with the arrival of the iteso. E.g. the Maasai and some kalenjin communities. f) The iteso assimilated some communities living in the area. g) Their settlement enhanced trade with different communities; they exchanged livestock products for grains with the Luyia. h) The iteso adopted agriculture as a result of interacting with the Bantus who were farmers **The Maasai ** ~ Their movement from north of lake Turkana is closely associated with the original Kalenjin speakers. By AD 1500, the Maasai begun to move separately southwards between Mt,. Kenya and Mt. Elgon. By 19thc, they had settled in Uasin Gishu and even spread into Tanzania along the Rift Valley. ----- 50 ### ~ As they moved, they assimilated the Sirikwa peoples. They also waged war against the neighbouring Kalenjin, Akamba and Abagusii. ~ In the 1850s the Maasai experienced many natural disasters like drought, famine and cattle diseases leading to decline of their power. They also experienced civil wars between the Kwavi (iloikop) and the Purko (Ilmaasai) sections. When Oloibon Mbatian died, his two sons Sendeyo and Lenana became involved in a protracted succession dispute. They were also weakened by wars with the Agikuyu. Their power came to an end with the coming of British rule. **Effects of the migration and settlement of the plain nilotes into Kenya ** a) The migration and settlement of the Maasai in their present region led to increase in population in the area. b) As they migrated, into Kenya, the Maasai pushed and displaced the communities they came across. For example, they subdued the Nandi in the 18thc. c) The Maasai influenced the fighting tactics of other groups in Kenya. d) The Maasai absorbed the southern Cushites such as the Dorobo. e) There were intermarriages between the Maasai and the Akamba, Agikuyu and even the kalenjin groups in the area. f) There was Cultural interaction giving rise to enriched cultures. They adopted some cultural practices from the southern Cushites for example, the age-set systems circumcision and clitoridectomy. They also adopted some Kalenjin vocabulary. g) Their settlement enhanced trade with different communities; they exchanged livestock products for grains with the Luyia. h) A section of the Maasai adopted agriculture as a result of interacting with their agricultural neighbours in the Rift Valley. The Kwavi Maasai became mixed farmers. i) They influenced Communities like the Nandi who adopted the institution of Prophet or diviner from the institution of Laibon among the Maasai. **The Highland Nilotes ** They comprise the kalenjin speakers namely the Tugen, Nandi, Kipsigis, Marakwet, Keiyo, Pokot and Sabaot. They are believed to be the earliest Nilotic speakers in Kenya. This evidenced from the narratives of their neighbours like the Luo. Their traditions point their original homeland to be a place to the north-western part of Kenya, between Sudan and Ethiopia. **Why they migrated:** a) They might have been Escaping from internal enemies causing clan or family feuds. b) There was population pressure in their area of origin forcing them to look for new land for settlement. c) They were fleeing the outbreak of diseases and epidemics that affected both people and animals. d) They were escaping famine and drought. e) They fled constant attacks from their neighbours. ----- 51 ### f) They were also looking for better lands for cultivation. g) The migrated to satisfy their spirit of adventure. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Helot 2012-2013 49 They began migrating from their cradleland in around 600AD. By 700AD, some kalenjin groups like the Sirikwa were already occupying the rift valley. Some were later pushed out of the Mt. elgon region by the incoming Bantu and plain nilotes. Those that remained include the Bok, Bongomek and Kony. The Terik later migrated to western Kenya and greatly borrowed from the Bantu, adopting a new name, Tiriki. **The Nandi. ** They were pushed out of the Mt. Elgon region between 1700 and 1800 by the incoming **Maasai. ** The decline of the Maasai in the 19thc made them rise to become a formidable group that conducted raids against their neighbours like the Abaluhyia and Luo. Their power only declined due to colonization. **The Kipsigis ** They are believed to have separated together with the Nandi from other kalenjin groups at around Mt. Elgon region around AD1600. They moved south east to Teo, near Lake Baringo. Due to the Maasai attacks, they moved westwards to Tambach where they stayed for a long period. They later moved southwards to Rongai near Nakuru. They only separated from the Nandi due to drought and the Maasai Raids on the Nandi. The Kipsigis moved further south to Kericho while the Nandi moved to Aldai during the 2nd half of 18thc. The Kipsigis settled at Kipsigis Hills forming a strong community that assimilated thelegendary Sirikwa and some Maasai and Abagusii groups. They were for a long time allies of the Nandi. **What factors contributed to the Nandi and Kipsigis split during the mid 18 [th]** **century. ** a) Maasai attacks on the two communities forcing each group to find its own means of Defence. b) Drought which caused scattering in search of food and pasture. c) Constant conflicts over the limited resources in the region leading to warfare and final split. **Results of the Highland nilotes migration ** a) It increased intercommunity conflicts in the region. b) Some of the Kalenjin groups assimilated Bantu cultures while their culture was also assimilated by other groups. The Terik for example borrowed many Bantu vocabularies and customs. c) They intermarried with other groups in the region, such as the Abagusii and the Luo. d) Their migration increased trading activities in the region. e) They displaced the people they came across e.g. the Abagusii and the Kwavi Maasai ----- 52 ### Explain the results of the interactions between the various Kenyan communities during the pre-colonial period. a) Through the inter-tribal wars, there was loss of lives and destruction of property hence economic decline. b) Many communities were displaced as new ones arrived. E.g when the Luos arrived, Abagusii and sections of the Abaluhyia were displaced. Etc. c) The constant raids as a means of interaction led to some communities seeking for refugee in secure places. E.g the Abagusii too refugee in the present Kisii highland due to the Kipsigis, Nandi and Maasai raids in 1800AD. d) A sense of unity developed among some communities e.g. among the Luo, as a means of Defence against attacks by the Maasai, Nandi and Abaluhyia. e) Tension between various communities was reduced as they interacted through intermarriages e.g. between the Agikuyu and the Maasai. f) Some new customs found their way into various communities. E.g the Bantu and the nilotes learned of circumcision and age set system from the southern Cushites. g) New technology infused into various communities. E.g. the Bantu and the nilotes learned the art of cattle milking and bleeding, irrigation and manuring from the southern Cushites. h) Specialization emerged mainly due to inter-community trade in the region. i) There was also increased wealth in some communities. For example through the trade between the Agikuyu and the Akamba, some Agikuyu gained wealth. j) New economic activities sprung up in some communities. E.g. the Maasai adopted crop cultivation from the Agikuyu. k) The Bantu language was enriched through the borrowing of some vocabulary from the southern Cushites. l) The Abakuria were able to develop into a distinct ethnic group as a result of constant raids from the Maasai and the Luo. **SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL ORGANIZATION OF KENYAN ** **COMMUNITIES IN THE 19THCENTURY ** **THE BANTU ** **Social organization ** ~ Almost all the Bantu communities were organized in clans made up of people with common descent. ~ All the Bantu communities practiced circumcision. In some communities like the Akamba, Abaluhyia, only boys circumcised. Among the Abagusii and Agikuyu, both boys and girls were circumcised. The initiates were taught the values and customs of their community ~ Circumcision marked an entry into an age set whose functions included defending the community from external attacks, building huts and advising junior age-sets on how to raid. ----- 53 ### ~ All the Bantu communities believed in the existence of a supernatural power that controlled their destiny.

Some Cushites who lived along river valleys practiced substance agriculture where they grew grain crops, vegetables, dates, peas, pepper, tubers and bananas.They also practiced iron smelting and made iron tools e.g. swords, knives, bangles and arrow heads.They hunted wild game for food, ivory, skins (hides) for clothing, bedding and gathered fruits and roots and vegetables. They engaged in craft industry e.g. production of leather items such as handbags, belts etc.Some of them who lived near rivers and along the Indian Ocean practiced fishing.They traded with their neighbours e.g. the Pokomo and the Samburu. **Political organization of the Cushites ** All the Cushitic communities like other groups in Kenya, had decentralized forms of government. The clan formed the basic political unit for all the Bantu communities. Each clan was made up of related families. ----- 68 ### The social and political system of the Cushites was interwoven that the social divisions, age set system were also important aspects of the political system.Leadership of the clan was in the hands of a council of elders who played a pivoted role in solving disputes, acting as ritual experts, presiding over religious ceremonies, maintaining law and order and making executive decisions affecting the community like declaring war.Among the Cushites a clan was independent of others except when the wider community faced a common enemy or problem.The Cushites developed an age-set system that had some political significance. After circumcision, the boys joined the age-set after initiation to provide warriors who defended the community from external attacks and raid other communities for cattle.The age set system was based on about ten groups each with its own leader. At the end of an age cycle, a ceremony was performed and the senior age sets retired from public life and settled in different territories. **The Somali ** The social organization of the Somali.Like Somali were organized into clans each comprising of families whose members claimed common descent. They also had an age set system. Circumcision marked an entry into an age set whose functions included defending the community from external attacks, building huts and advising junior agesets on how to raid. Each age set had a leader with specific duties. They believed in the existence of a supreme god, whom they referred to as wak (waq). He was the creator of everything. They had religious leaders who mediated between God and the people Later on, through interaction with their neighbours, all the Somali became Muslims by the 16thc.The Somali valued marriage as an important institution. They were polygamous and their marriage was exogamous in nature. **Political organization of the Somali ** The Somali had a decentralized political system of administration. The basic political unit was the clan made up of related families. The clan was headed by a council of elders in charge of day to day affairs of the clan e.g. making major decisions and settling disputes and presiding over religious ceremonies.The Somali had an age set system and all male members of the society belonged to an age set. Each age set performed specific roles/duties. From the age set system, there evolved a military organization for community defence. Initiates joined the age set system after circumcision. With the advent of Islamic religion political organization changed. They now had community leaders called sheikhs whose role was mainly advisory.The political system was now based on the Islamic sharia. **Economic organization** a) The Somali were hunters and gathers. They hunted wild game for food and gathered fruits and roots and vegetables. b) They basically practiced nomadic Pastoralism. They kept cattle, goats, camel and sheep.Their diet was mainly milk, meat and blood. ----- 69 ### c) They traded with their neighbours to get what they could not produce e.g. the Pokomo and the Mijikenda from whom they acquired grains. d) A section of the Somali practiced iron smelting and made iron tools e.g. swords, knives, bangles and arrow heads. They also engaged in craft industry e.g. production of leather items such as handbags, belts etc. e) Such craft activities were despised among the Somali and were associated with a group whom they referred to as Sab (outcasts). **The Borana ** They are a branch of the Oromo or Galla people who came from Ethiopia. **Social organization ** The Borana had a complex social organization.The society was divided into clans led by elders whose responsibility was to settle disputes and maintaining law and order. Each clan was made up of related families. The borana had a strong belief in the extended family.The Borana were nomadic. But they had a residential section called the camp that consisted of a few huts of related families. .In the camps, it was the most senior married and competent man who became the head of the camp (abba olla). He would have his wifes hut built on the extreme left.The Borana had a complex age-set structure called Gada. Each Gada was headed by the most powerful individual among the group members (Abba boku). His duty would be to preside over village meetings, proclaim laws and preside over religious ceremonies.The community had two kinship groups that practiced exogamous marriage.. A man from the Gona kinship would only marry from the Sabbo kinship. Polygamy was allowed.The family among the borana was headed by a man referred to as Abba warra with the wife as the female head of the household (Hatimana) There was division of labour in the society. The men defended the camps, wells, herds and shrines. They dug wells and organized raiding parties. The men also elected leaders of camps, age sets and Gada class. The women performed household duties, wove baskets for carrying children, prepared leather and built houses. Boys herded sheep, goats and cattle. Elders presided over the court cases.The borana worshipped a powerful God, the creator whom they called Wak (waq). He was worshipped through religious leaders They had a patrilineal society where inheritance was from the father to the son, and specifically the first son, angafa, who would then redistribute the inherited cattle to the younger brothers.Their culture was full of ceremonies. For example, there were ceremonies when a Gada class entered or left a Gada grade, there was war ceremony (butta) and a muda ceremony in honor of the kinship leader, kallu. **Economic organization ** a) The borana were basically practiced nomadic Pastoralists who kept cattle, goats and sheep. Cattle was slaughtered as part of their religious rituals and also provided raw materials for houses and other local industries. b) They traded with their neighbours to get what they could not produce e.g. they exchanged their animals with the Mijikenda from whom they acquired grains. ----- 70 ### c) The Borana were hunters and gathers. They hunted wild game for food and gathered fruits and roots and vegetables. d) Those who settled in the fertile region along the tana valley grew crops like beans and pepper. e) The Borana women engaged in craft industry e.g. production of leather items such as handbags, belts etc. men also made wooden tools, weapons and utensils. f) The Borana also practiced fishing as they settled along river tana. **Political organization of the borana** Their political system was based on the kinship system where the society was divided into clans comprising related families. There were two moieties (kinships) that were further divided into sub-moieties. The sub-moieties were further divided into clans. Each moiety was headed by a hereditary leader known as kallu. The kallu of the Sabbo for example came from the dyallu clan of the karrayyu sub-moiety.The kallus camp was the spiritual and political centre of the group. His duties included leading in ritual ceremonies, providing judgment in major conflicts between clans.He was elected together with the council of the Gada leaders of each gad class when it prepared to enter a new grade.The kallu were not authorized to bear arms or defend themselves but were to move in company of other members of the society.The borana society was divided into clans led by a council of elders whose responsibility was tosettle disputes and maintaining law and order. Each clan was made up of related families who lived in a residential section called the camp that consisted of a few huts of related families. .Powers were distributed equally between the two moieties at all levels such as in the Gada class, age-set and camp councils as well as in tribal ceremonies.The complex age set system mainly provided a military base for the society. The age sets, Hariyya, were recruited from boys of the same age. Gada class (Luba) was recruited genealogically. There were eleven grades through which the Gada classes passed from birth to death, with each grade lasting eight years. While age set members were of the same age, Gada members were of varied ages. The age sets formed the age set council that recruited the warriors.Members of the Gada classes formed the Gada council (lallaba) which the responsibility of making decisions for their classes. They also resolved conflicts between non-relatives and mobilized economic activities such as digging wells, organizing societal rituals and ceremonies and directing relatives with their neighbours such as the Oromo and Somali.The councils contributed to the development of an effective political organization.The complexity of the borana institutions strengthened unity among them. However, the coming of the colonialists in the 20 [th] century heavily impacted on these nomadic pastoral community. **CONTACTS BETWEEN EAST AFRICA AND THE OUTSIDE WORLD UP TO ** **THE 19 [TH] C. ** The early contacts were initially at the coast but later spread inland. The early visitors included the Arabs, Greeks, Chinese, Persians, Portuguese, British, French and the Dutch. ----- 71 ### **The East African coast ** The existing documentaries and archaeological evidence about the historical information on the east African coast include; ~ The Graeco- Roman Documentary which only makes indirect references to the east African coast. ~ The Swahili chronicles written by the people of the coast. E.g the Kilwa chronicle gives account of achievements of coastal rulers before the arrival of the Portuguese. ~ The writings of Pliny, a Roman Geographer who wrote about the high cost of trade with India in his book, The Natural History. ~ Periplus of the Erythrean Sea; by a Greek merchant in 1 [st] C AD describes the people and places along the coast and the Indian Ocean Trade. (Erythrean Sea Trade). ~ Geopgraphia by Claudius Ptolemy makes reference to east African coast and the trade along Somalia and Kenyan coasts. ~ Christian Topography of Cosmos Indico of the 6 [TH] C describes the trading activities on the coast of East Africa. ~ Renowned travelers like Al-Mosudi, Al Idrisi and Ibn Battuta wrote firsthand accounts about the places they visited and the people they met at the coast in the 10 [th] C AD. ~ The existing archaeological evidence in east Africa include the remains of pottery, iron tools, beads and coins which prove the presence of international trade. **Early visitors to the east African coast upto 1500. ** Due to the great accessibility of the east African coast, there was widespread interaction between it and the people from the outside world. This was also aided by the monsoon winds that blew vessels / ships to the coast between November and April and took them away between may and October. The earliest visitors were the Egyptians, Phoenicians and Indonesians.Others who came later on included the Greeks, Persians, Romans, Chinese, Arabs, Syrians, Indians and the Portuguese. **The Greeks ** Their coming to east Africa is accounted for by the quarrels between the Seleucid rulers in Greece and the Ptolemaic Greeks in Egypt over control of the land route to the east through the Mediterranean lands.The rising demand for ivory made the ptolemies venture into the red sea and finally into the east African coast. Evidence of Greek existence on the coast is the Ptolemic Gold Coin found near Dar es Salam. **Romans ** In AD 45, Hippalus, a Roman sailor using monsoon wind knowledge reached the red sea and entered the Indian Ocean. The Romans were keen on breaking the Arab monopoly over trade.Evidence of trade between the Romans and the coast is in the writing of a Roman Historian Pliny (23-79AD) who points out the high coast of trade between India, Arabia and china.The fall of the Roman Empire in the 5 [th] c AD affected international trading network in the Roman Empire. ----- 72 ### **Persians ** They were mainly immigrants from Shirazi on the eastern shore of the Persian Gulf. Their adventure into the east African coast happened during the reign of the Sassanid Dynasty(224-636AD), which was determined to rebuild the Persian Empire that had been destroyed by the Macedonian Greeks, through wealth amassed from international trade. By the 6 [th] c, the Persians were trading in India and later china, controlling the red sea and parts of Egypt and Arabia.They got involved in the east African trade and even established ruling dynasties9 e.g. the (Shirazi Dynasty) at the coast. They intermarried with the locals and introduced Islamic religion.They were later overthrown by the Arabs. The succeeded in introducing Bowls of glass, swords, beakers and pots to the coast. **Chinese ** They visited the coast in the middle ages. This is evidenced in the work of the Chinese authors during the Sung Dynasty (960- 1279 AD) and Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), who referred to the east African coast as Tseng- Pat or Pseng- Po.There has also been evidence of Chinese coins dating to 700 AD at the coast.The last Chinese fleet must have reached Mogadishu in 1430AD. The Chinese brought in Silk cloth, porcelain bowls and plates in exchange for Gold\\, leopard skin, Rhino Horns and tortoise shells. Porcelain remains have been found at the coast. **Arabs ** The earliest Arab settlers to arrive were the Daybui from Daybul In north western India. They arrived along the east African coast by AD 650 for trade. The earliest Arab settlement was Qanbalu (Pemba). They later settled in manda, Kilwa. Lamu and Mombasa.The Arabs reffered to the Africans as the Zenj (Blacks) **Factors that facilitated the coming of Arabs to the east African coast. ** ~ The Indian ocean provided the highway through which the traders traveled ~ The traders had the skills of harnessing the monsoon winds (trade winds) they knew what times of the year to come to the coast and what times to go back. ~ The traders had marine technology e.g. they had ship-building technology and knew how to use the compass for navigation of the ocean ~ They ensured the control of the red sea was in their hands to bar the enemy from attacking them ~ The ports of southern Arabia were good calling places on their journey between the east and the west. ~ The deep harbours at the coast were ideal for their ships to anchor, refuel and get supplies. **Reasons for the coming of the Arabs ** ~ They wanted to trade and control the commercial activities along the east African coast. ~ Some Arabs came as refugees, fleeing from religious and political persecutions in Arabia. ----- 73 ### ~ They came to spread their religion, Islam. ~ Some came as explorers to explore the east African coast. ~ Some came to establish settlements along the east African coast. **Trade between the East African coast and the outside world ** There is sufficient evidence of the existence of regular trading contacts between east African coast and the countries in the Middle East and Far East. **Development and organization of the trade ** ~ The earliest foreign traders must have been the Romans who traded with the Indians in the Far East. They made stopovers at the east African coast for ivory whose demand had grown tremendously. ~ Muslim Arabs acted as intermediaries in the Indian Ocean trade between the Indians and the Romans. They also exported frankincense and myrrh among other things. ~ Traders from Persia, Arabia and Syria brought glass beakers and bowls, swords, pots, grains, sugar, cloth and beads in exchange for palm oil, tortoise shells, ivory and slaves. ~ The Greek, roman and Chinese traders brought porcelain bowls, daggers, swords, pottery, cowrie shells, glassware, beads and silk in exchange for ivory, rhinoceros horns, bee wax, tortoise shells, coconut oil and mangrove poles. Cowrie shells were obtained from Maldives islands while spices came from Spice Island. ~ East Africa also exported leopard skins, gold, ostrich feathers, copal, copper and iron. Ivory was used in Asia to make bangles, bracelets, piano keys and for decorations ~ The traders relied on the monsoon winds to blow their ships to and from the east African coast. ~ The Indian Ocean trade was conducted through the barter system but later coins were used as a medium of exchange. During barter, the foreigners bartered their goods with gold, ivory and slaves. Seyyid said later introduced copper and silver coins. ~ The middlemen in the trade included the Arabs and Swahili who organized caravans to the interior to acquire local goods which they sold to traders at the coast. ~ As there was no common language spoken, trading was conducted silently, hence the name silent trade ~ Capital for the trade was provided by the Arabs. Later the Indian banyans started giving credit facilities to the traders which increased the volume of trade. ~ The sultan of Zanzibar provided security to the Arab traders, enabling them to penetrate the interior to acquire goods. ~ The trade stimulated development of towns along the coastline. E.g Rhapta (probably located between pangani and Dar es Salam), Essina and Sarapion were the earliest towns to grow. Lamu Malindi Mombasa, pate and Brava also developed. ~ The merchants settled at various places on the coast and on the islands and interacted with the locals leading to development of the Swahili culture. Factors which promoted the Indian Ocean trade. ----- 74 ### (a) Availability of items of trade from the east African coast and foreigner countries. For example, ivory, slaves, cotton and porcelain. (b) The high demand for trade items from the coast by consumers from the outside world was also a promoting factor. This was caused by the uneven distribution of resources. Foreign items were also on demand at the coat. (c) The existence of enterprising merchants in both the foreign lands and the east African coast led to promotion of trade links. The Akamba, Mijikenda, nyamwezi and Swahili middlemen for example played a pivoted role in the trade. (d) The existence of local trade among Africans which acted as a base upon which the Indian Ocean trade was developed. (e) The accessibility of the east African coast by sea. This enabled the foreigner traders to reach the region across the Indian Ocean. (f) The existence of the monsoon winds facilitated the movement of the vessels which made it possible for the traders to travel to and from the coasty. (g) The existence of peace and political stability at the east African coast created a conducive atmosphere for business transactions. Where there was need, the traders were given security by the sultan of Zanzibar. (h) The existence of natural harbours along the coast ensured safe docking of the trade vessels for fueling and off-loading. (i) The advancement in the ship building technology in Europe gave great advantage to the traders. This made water transport reliable and regular. (j) The existence o the Indian Banyans (money lenders) who gave credit facilities enabled many more people to join the trade. **Impacts of the trade on the peoples of east Africa ** (a) The trade led to intermarriage between Muslim traders with the local Bantu communities giving rise to the Swahili people with a distinct culture. (b) There was emergence of Kiswahili as a new language of the coastal people. The language is a mixture of Bantu and Arabic languages. (c) The trade led to the spread of the Islamic culture along the coastal region. Stone buildings were constructed, new dressing styles arose (women began to wear buibui while men wore kanzus), new eating habits also evolved. (d) The Islamic law, sharia was also introduced. (e) Many Africans were converted to Islam. However the religion did not spread beyond c. the coastal region prior to the 19 [th] (f) New crops were introduced along the coast. For example, rice, wheat, millet, cloves, vegetables and fruits such as bananas and oranges. Cloth, cowrie shells and spices were also introduced. (g) Profits derived from the trade were used to develop towns like Pemba, Mombasa, Lamu, Zanzibar and Kilwa. ----- 75 ### (h) The trade led to the rise of a class of rich merchants exhibiting a high standard of living. African merchants who rose to prominence included chief Kivoi among the Akamba, Ngonyo of the Giriama, Mwakikonga of the Digo, Nyungu ya mawe, Mirambo and Msiri of the Nyamwezi. (i) There was decline of the local industries like weaving and iron working which were affected by the influx of foreign goods like cloth fro India and iron tools from Asia and Europe. (j) There was destruction of wildlife, especially elephant and rhinoceros due to the increased demand for ivory. (k) The increased demand for slaves promoted warfare among the communities as many people were captured during slave raids. It also created fear while others lost their life during the warfare. (l) Slave trade also disrupted African economies as able bodied men were captured leaving behind the aged, weak, and children who made little contribution. Many even died of starvation since they could not participate in food production. (m) African population in the hinterland greatly reduced as many were sold into slavery. (n) Money (currency) was introduced as a means of exchange to replace the barter system of trade. (o) East African coast was exposed to the outside world through trade. This paved way for European imperialism later on. (p) Trade routes led to the establishment of trade caravan routes which later were upgraded to by the colonialists. **The coming of the Portuguese ** Since the 10th century Arabian influence along the coast had been strong. Most of the port towns along the East African coast had been built by Arab Sultans, who brought the Muslim religion to the coastal people.The Portuguese explorer and soldier, Vasco da Gama, was the first European to make contact with the people of the East African Coast. He had been paid by the King of Portugal to find a sea route to India. **The Portuguese at the East African coast 1500 1700 A.D ** The Portuguese were the first Europeans to have contacts with the people of the East African Coast. They invaded the east African coast in 1498 at a time when the Ottoman Empire occupied most of the Middle East thus blocking the overland route to India from Europe.They were adventurous and in search for the sea route to India. This led them to the East African Coast where they stayed for 200 years. Reasons for the coming of the Portuguese at the East African coast a) The need to establish a commercial empire in order to get the products of East Africa e.g. ivory, gold, silks and spices that were mainly controlled by the Arabs merchants. b) They wanted to obtain control of the main trading towns, e.g. Kilwa, Mombasa etc. c) They wanted to defeat the Muslim traders and rulers who had monopolized the Indian Ocean trade. ----- 76 ### d) They wanted to prevent other European rivals from gaining access to the Indian Ocean Trade e.g. the French, Dutch, and British e) Desire to get revenue for the development of their country. f) The Portuguese wished to share in the profits of the Indian Ocean Trade by imposing taxes and forcing wealthy coastal towns to pay tribute to the king of Portugal. g) The coast had natural harbors where ships could anchor on their way to and from the East for fresh food and water. The Portuguese therefore wanted to establish a calling station for resting, refresh, treating the sick, repairing wrecked ships e.t.c h) The coast was strategically located and this made it easy to control sea pirates and other rival powers. i) They wanted to revenge on the Muslim Arabs who had conquered Portugal in 711 AD by converting them to Christianity and stop the spread of Islam i.e. the Arabs had ever run the Iberian Peninsula and forced the Christians to accept Islam. j) They hoped to get assistance of King Prester John thought to be in the interior of north east Africa. They hoped the king would help them in their crusade against the Muslims. k) They had hope of stopping Egyptians and Turks from sending military aid to their fellow Moslems on the coast. l) They were interested in exploration and adventure; this was a period of Renaissance (means to be born again/change) in Europe. Hence hoped to search for the unknown, new knowledge and sailing across un mapped seas. m) Desire to acquire revenue for the development of their country. Portuguese conquest of the coast 1500-1510 (Stages of conquest) Steps taken by the Portuguese to occupy the East African coast. ~ In 1497 King John 11 sent Padro da Covillha on a land journey to India to gather information about the Eastern trades and the sea routes. ~ In 1498 Bathromew Diaz sailed around the Cape of Good Hope, thus proving that there was a way round South Africa to the Indian Ocean. ~ Between 1497- 1499 Vasco da Gama at the command of King Emmanuel the fortunate of Portugal visited Mozambique, Mombasa and Malindi on his way to India. He arrived in Malindi in March 1498 to a warm welcome by the locals. ~ He returned to Portugal in 1499 and gave a report of the flourishing Sofala trade, the Deep Harbour in Mombasa and the existing disunity of coastal people. ~ In response to Vasco da Gamas expeditions, the king of Portugal sent fleets of ships to conquer the important trading towns of the East African coast. ~ In 1500 Pedro Alvares Cabral attempted to capture Sofala with its Gold trade but he failed. ~ In 1502 Vasco da Gama came back with 19 ships aiming at capturing Kilwa because it was the most important and prosperous. He captured the palace, imprisoned the Su ltan and only released him when he accepted to pay tribute to Portugal. ----- 77 ### ~ From Kilwa he invaded Mombasa, which tried to get assistance from Malindi but since they were great rivals Malindi refused to give assistance, this disunity made the work of conquest easy. ~ In 1503 Ruy Laurence Ravasco was sent with a number of ships and forced the islands of Mafia and Zanzibar and other towns to pay tribute to Portugal. ~ In 1504, Lopez destroyed gold trade at Kilwa. Attacks were too much on the harbour that trade came to a standstill. But again the Arabs failed to unite to fight the Portuguese. ~ In 1505 Francisco DAlmeida arrived at the coast on his way to Gao where he had been appointed the first Portuguese viceroy (governor) of the Eastern Empire. With 1500 men and 20 ships, he attacked Sofala which surrendered without struggle because she was tired of Kilwas rule and therefore preferred the Portuguese to fellow Arabs. His forces continued northwards and attacked Kilwa. The Sultan and his followers took off to the bush while the Portuguese looted and burnt down the town before he departed to India. He also conquered Mombasa. ~ In 1506 1507 Tristao Da Cunha took on the Northern towns of Socotra, Oja, Brava and Lamu. Towns that submitted without struggles were only asked to pay tribute to Portugal. Malindi was even excused from paying tribute due to her friendship with the Portuguese. ~ In 1509 Alba quiqui captured the remaining towns i.e. the work of conquest was completed with taking the islands of Pemba, Mafia, and Zanzibar. Mombasa was burnt down. ~ By 1515 the Portuguese had succeeded in conquering most of the coastal towns, bring them under Portuguese rule. However towns like Gedi, Kilifi, Pate, Manda, Mombasa and Lamu continued with resistance. Mombasa was heavily attacked in 1528. ~ In 1585, a Turkish captain, Amir Ali Bey, arrived at the coast as an envoy of the sultan of turkey to free the coastal towns from the Portuguese. Rebellion then broke out between 1585 and 1588 between Ali Bey, the Portuguese, and the people of Mombasa and Zimba warriors. The towns of pate, Siyu and Pemba were attacked and forced to pay heavy fines while manda was completely destroyed. ~ Portugal finally brought all the coastal towns under her control establishing her headquarters in Mombasa that had been subdued in 1589. in 1593, the Portuguese built fort Jesus **Why the Portuguese build Fort Jesus ** a) They used it as a watch tower b) To hide against attacks by the enemies c) As military base d) To offer food security and protection. e) To act as an armament. f) To act as a prison for the captives. ----- 78 ### ~ Portuguese control of the east African coast as greatly supported by the conquest of Hormuz, which made it easier for them to control sea traffic in the Persian Gulf, Gulf of Eden and Arabian Sea. **Why the Portuguese defeated the East African Coastal towns/Why the Portuguese ** **were successful ** a) They had superior weapons e.g. cannon guns which made terrible noise and threw people in panic as compared to the poor musket guns of the coastal Arabs. b) They had well trained soldiers with superior skills of fighting compared to the coastal people who had no permanent organized army e.g. Vasco da Gama, Francisco DAlmeida were ruthless army commanders which helped them to defeat the coastal dwellers. c) They had better and faster ships (carracks) well equipped for naval warfare. The Portuguese soldiers wore Armour on their bodies and helmets on their heads, which protected them from the weapons of the coastal people. d) The coastal towns were disunited which gave chance to the Portuguese to fight isolated enemies e.g. Malindi refused to unite with Mombasa due to local conflicts. Some cooperated with the invaders giving them food and bases e.g. Malindi and Sofala. e) Some coastal towns like Kilwa were caught unaware. The Portuguese employed cruel methods of fighting like burning down towns and surprise attacks. f) The ships acted as stages against the hostile weapons of the coastal people. g) The coast had natural harbours and was not open to attacks. h) The constant attacks on the coastal towns by the Galla, Zimba and Turkish e.t.c had weakened their defence. i) The Portuguese were financially equipped and therefore supported their soldiers because they wanted to control the East African trade. j) The coastal states had very weak economies that could not sustain prolonged fights especially against the economically strong Portuguese. **Portuguese Administration at the coast ** By 1510, the conquest of the East African coast was over and administration fell into the hands of the Portuguese. For easy administration, the coast was divided into two zones; a. The area North of Cape Delgado was ruled by the Captain at Malindi. b. The area South of Cape Delgado was ruled by Captain at Mozambique. Both captains were answerable to the Portuguese viceroy at Goa on Indian coast at the General headquarters. Cape Delgado was made the midpoint of the East Africa possession. Sofala was made the regional headquarters but still under the charge of the captain who took his orders from the viceroy at Goa. Later, the Captain in the North was stationed at Mombasa after the construction of Fort Jesus in 1593 because they were rebellious. Other forts and garrisons were established at Sofala and Kilwa. The Portuguese captains were responsible for the collections of tributes from coastal rulers. ----- 79 ### They imposed the customs dues on all imports and exports. They were also responsible for the suppression of rebellions on the coast. The Portuguese had problems with administration because they could not provide enough troops to all garrisons their strongholds.The Portuguese were more interested in gold trade in Sofala. Unfortunately, they failed to develop this trade because of the following; ~ There were wars in the mining areas between the Portuguese and Coastal people. ~ As a result the Portuguese were so cruel that any sign of disobedience was punished with maximum brutality to serve as a warning to others who might choose to rebel. This partly explains the unpopularity of the Portuguese on the coast. The Portuguese also applied the policy of divide and rule by setting one town against the other. For example Malindi against Mombasa.The relationship with the subjects was not good. They lived in isolation of each other by race and religion. The Portuguese established their own settlements, built their own churches and had their own priest. This could be the reason why their religion was rejected and hatred increased.In addition, the few Portuguese officials were corrupt, plundered and ordered destruction on the coastal town. All this earned them hatred and opposition from the people and it was not a surprise that they were nicknamed \"AFRITI\" meaning Devil.The Portuguese did not mix freely with Africans because they considered themselves to be a special race.During the Portuguese reign, the glory of the coastal states was no more. The high standards of living the coastal people had enjoyed were no more. The trade that had made them rich was declining. Many buildings were in ruins and there was widespread poverty and misery. **Reasons that led to the decline of the Portuguese at the East African Coast ** **(Problems/challenges they faced) ** a) Portugal was a small country that could not provide enough administrators and officials for such a large coastline that extended from Sofala in the south to Mogadishu in the north.The territory was too big and long for effective control and administration. b) It had few soldiers and could not keep fortified garrison along the coast. c) Authority was left in hands of incompetent and corrupt officials who were after enriching themselves. d) The Africans hated the Portuguese due to differences in religion, that is to say, Muslims against Christians (Portuguese). e) The Portuguese were cruel, harsh and brutal, they always punished the coastal people whenever they attempted to rebel and made them to be hated. f) The Portuguese also used divide and rule policy for example, they allied with Malindi against Mombasa. g) There was decline of trade due high taxes on imports and other restrictions hence smuggling of goods, which affected the Portuguese economy. Due to decline in trade, the people became poor and dissatisfied and they continuously rebelled. h) The Portuguese failed to support their own allies at the coast, some even betrayed them. ----- 80 ### i) Portugal had been forced into a union with Spain between15801640 which weakened her control of the trading colonies as she was no longer interested in the overseas empire. j) Portugal was challenged by other European powers, which began competing with the Portuguese in the Indian Ocean Trade e.g. Dutch, English, French, Turks and others. k) The coastal people found useful allies against the Portuguese due to their bad rule e.g. Turks, Oman, and Arabs l) They were faced with constant rebellions along the coast. This greatly disrupted life at the coast e.g. Pate, Mombasa m) Tropical diseases which claimed their life like smallpox, malaria making it difficult for them to administer the coast effectively. n) The Portuguese were greatly weakened by a group of cannibals the Zimba, who attacked the East African coast. o) The unhealthy climate made the area unattractive for them to work for instance, some places where too humid and hot while others were too cold. p) The distance between Portugal and the East African coast was too far hence reinforcement delayed. q) There was a problem of communication barrier, the Portuguese refused to learn the African languages and these made their administration difficult. r) The income obtained from the gold trade was not enough to pay for administration i.e. soldiers and officials. s) The Capture of Fort Jesus their stronghold in 1698 by the Omani greatly contributed to their decline. **The collapse of Portuguese rule ** ~ In 1585, a Turkish captain, Amir Ali Bey, arrived at the coast as an envoy of the sultan of turkey to free the coastal towns from the Portuguese. Rebellion then broke out between 1585 and 1588 between Ali Bey, the Portuguese, and the people of Mombasa and Zimba warriors. The towns of pate, Siyu and Pemba were attacked and forced to pay heavy fines while manda was completely destroyed ~ As a result of their ruthlessness, the coastal people became hostile to the Portuguese. ~ Mombasa for example resisted the humiliation they got from the Portuguese appointedsultan ~ The sultans heir Yusuf was treated as a servant who resented the people of Mombasa ~ On 15thaugust 1631, during the Christian feast of Assumption in Mombasa, Sultan Yusuf stabbed the captain with a knife, killing him instantly. This sparked off a rebellion where many Portuguese were killed. ~ Yusuf posed a threat to the Portuguese rule until his death in 1637. ~ The people of pate also revolted in 1666. However, their ruler was arrested and exiled to Goa where he was executed ~ In 1622, the Persians drove the Portuguese from Hormuz. In 1650, the Portuguese were expelled from their bases in Muscat by the Omani Arabs under sultan Saif ----- 81 ### ~ Britain, France and Holland also began to compete the Portuguese in trade. ~ The final blow to Portuguese rule was attack by the Omani Arabs and the seizure of fort Jesus. The coastal Arab towns had appealed to their brothers in Oman for assistance against the Portuguese brutality. ~ In 1652, an Oman fleet sailed to pate and Zanzib ar, overpowered and killed the Portuguese. ~ In 1696, Imam Saif Ibn Sultan of Oman sailed to Mombasa with a large fleet and army. The Portuguese took refuge in Fort Jesus as battle raged on (about 2500 Portuguese men, women and children) the Portuguese were unfortunate as they could not get supplies to sustain the war with 3000 plus Arab soldiers with full packing of the coastal people. ~ In 1697, the Omani forces got access to the Fort and found most Portuguese afflicted with disease. By December 1698, the Omanis penetrated the Fort only to find all except twelve Portuguese dead. This marked the end of Portuguese rule though they made a temporaryseizure of the fort in 1728 but were overpowered. ~ For the coastal people, it was however a mere change of guard from the Portuguese to the Arabs. **Results of Portuguese stay at the coast of East Africa ** **Positive: ** a) The Portuguese built Fort Jesus at the coast in Mombasa in1592/3 which became a fortress and later a tourist attraction for centuries. b) They enriched the Swahili language with an addition of 60 words e.g. emeza meaning table and pesa meaning money. c) They introduced new crops from South Africa of which many have become staple diet for many East Africans e.g. cassava, pawpaws, maize, oranges, sweet potatoes, guavas, pineapples and mangoes d) They made an improvement in ship building. During their stay on the coast, many architects came in from India and Europe. e) There was establishment of closer trading links between the coast and India. f) They introduced new farming methods for example they encouraged the use of cow dung as manure. g) They led to the coming of more European and Asian traders and craftsmen especially those who helped in the building of Fort Jesus. h) They broke the Muslim- Arab monopoly of the Indian Ocean Trade. **Negative: ** a) Trade declined due to the constant wars and rebellions and heavy taxes imposed. b) There was decline of the coastal towns because many were burnt down and left in ruins for example Kilwa and Mombasa. c) There was widespread poverty and misery among the coastal people due to decline in trade. ----- 82 ### d) There was heavy loss of lives during the attacks. There was depopulation due to the many wars in the areas e) There was destruction of property like buildings and crops, which led to famine and starvation. f) The coastal people suffered oppression and brutality under harsh rule of the Portuguese. g) Their religion, Christianity, made no impact at the coast because they lived far from their subjects and stagnation of the Islamic faith because discouraged preaching. h) Smuggling developed because the Portuguese had failed to establish proper trading links with the Interior. i) Some towns were prevented from trading with their initial partners which led to their decay e.g. Gedi j) They led to the European interest at the coast hence leading to the colonization in the 19th Century. **THE ESTABLISHMENT AND IMPACT OF OMANI RULE AT THE EAST ** **AFRICAN COAST ** The Omani Arabs (Imams of Omani) replaced the Portuguese as the rulers of the East African coast after the capture of fort Jesus in 1698.The new rulers initially administered the region through some Arab families; ~ The Mazrui (Mazaria) family which ruled Mombasa ~ The Nabahan Family which ruled Lamu. The civil wars back home made it hard for the Omani Arabs to control the coast immediately. There were also threats of Persian invasion. Constant rebellion from coastal towns against Omani governors posed a serious challenge to Omani rule. Pate for example refused to pay tax and even murdered the imams messengers. Towns they were loyal to Oman were attacked.The Mazrui established themselves as independent rulers of Mombasa and ordered towns like pate, Pemba and Malindi to pay allegiance to them. Their greatest allies were the Mijikenda who promised them support in case of Omani attack.The struggle between the Mazrui and the Imams of Oman (1741-1840) The coastal towns led by Mombasa resisted Omans conquest due to the following reasons. a) The Omani wanted the revenue from the taxes levied on trade. b) The towns also wished to maintain their independence as they were during the Portuguese rule. c) The towns were also encouraged by the prevailing weaknesses in Oman due to civil wars and the Persian threat. d) The harsh and ruthless rule and manner in which the Oman rulers collected taxes. e) Mombasa had fought against the Portuguese and did not wish to be under control of another foreign power. ----- 83 ### **The struggle ** The appointment of Mohammed Ibn Azthman al Mazrui as the new governor of Mombasa coincided with the death of the Oman Imam Saif Ibn- Sultan of the Yorubi and his replacement with Ahmed Bin Said al-Busaidi.The new Mombasa governor refused to recognize the new imam and declared the independence of Mombasa from Oman. The sultan had him murdered and fort Jesus seized. A year later, the brother of the murdered governor recaptured the town and the fort. This became the century long struggle between the al-busaidi and al-Mazrui families.Taking advantage of the problems in Oman, Mombasa expanded her power and control over the coastal towns (she took over pate in 1807 and attacked Lamu in 1810). Lamu appealed to Oman for assistance. **Seyyid Said and the struggle ** Further political changes happened in Oman. Seyyid said rose to power as the imam (Seyyid) of Oman. His father, the ruler of Oman had died in a sea battle in 1804 when he was only 13 years. His cousin Badr Ibn saif took over. In 1806, Said stabbed Badr to death fearing domination. With the assistance of the British he had entrenched his position as the Seyyid of Oman at the age of 15 years. The British even promised him support in claiming the east African coast.He then sent a governor to build a fortress in Mombasa and to order all towns to recognize the power of Oman. Mombasas new governor Abdullah Ibn Ahmed defied the order and even continued to attack Brava. By 1817, Seyyid said had succeeded in freeing Pate from Mazrui rule. In 1822, with the help of Zanzibar, an Oman ally, he liberated Pemba and Brava from Mombasa. In 1823, he gained control of the Bajun Islands. He ordered that no town should trade with Mombasa.In 1824, the sultan of Mombasa offered Mombasa to become a British protectorate to protect him from the Oman rule. The new powerful position of Mombasa was however short-lived upto 1826 due to the terms of the Moresby anti-slavery treaty between Seyyid said and the British.The animosity between Mombasa and Oman continued. In 1837, there was a dispute in Mombasa over the succession to the vacant office of the Liwali. This became an opportune chance for Seyyid said to lure the members of the Mazrui family into fort Jesus where he killed them. **Seyyid Said; Sultan of Zanzibar 91840-1856) ** After that Seyyid said consolidated his power and control over the coast as well as the interior of east Africa. He then transferred his capital from Muscat to Oman. The transfer of the capital to Zanzibar from Muscat was due to the following reasons: a) Seyyid said desired to effectively control the coastal towns through the centrally located Zanzibar. b) Zanzibar had a pleasant climate compared to Muscat which was hot and dry. It also had fresh water, adequate rainfall and fertile soils that favoured clove growing. c) Zanzibar was easily defensible as an island. It was easy to sea the enemy from far and launch an attack from the island. ----- 84 ### d) The good deep harbours of Zanzibar I which ships could anchor were attractive. Zanzibars central position also favoured development of long distance trade. e) The town had a long history of loyalty to Oman throughout the Mazrui- busaidi struggles. Seyyid said appointed Liwalis to rule important towns. They were give the responsibility of collecting custom dues levied at each port. The Arabs in the local towns were allowed to rule themselves. Seyyid said was keener on the commercial empire than p olitical leadership. He stated I am nothing but just a merchant. Seyyid said developed an economic programme based on agriculture and international trade. **The development of plantation Agriculture ** Seyyid sad encouraged settlers from Oman and Zanzibar to take advantage of the fertile sols and good climate at the coast to settle in Mombasa. Malindi, Lamu and Pemba venture into agriculture.Plantation agriculture largely depended on slave labour.The people of Mombasa extended plantation agriculture into the mainland, acquiring land from the Mijikenda in exchange for gifts. They planted rice, maize, millet, beans, sesame and sorghum. Along the island, large plantations of coconut mango trees, cashew nuts and citrus fruits were developed. Grain plantations were developed around Malindi and Takaungu whose land was largely unoccupied and the orma were no longer a threat. By 1870, about 1400 to 1500 slaves worked on plantation farms in Malindi which had become the granary of Africa producing all kinds of grains, mangoes, coconut, mangoes and oranges.Seyyid said also established a clove plantation in Zanzibar. He also encouraged people to grow coconut trees by putting in place a policy that for eve coconut tree cut, three were to be planted. Plantation agriculture intensified slave trade. **The Slave Trade in East Africa ** Slave trade: The buying and selling of human beings Slavery: The state of being enslaved: Its a system where by some people are owned by others and are forced to work for others without being paid for the work they have done. It involves capturing, transporting of human beings who become the property of the buyer. The slave trade was one of the worst crimes against humanity. The trade was started by Arabs who wanted labour for domestic use and for their plantations. However, they were later joined by Europeans.. **Reasons for the rise of slave trade ** ~ During the second half of the 18th century, France opened up larger sugar plantations on the islands of Reunion, Mauritius and in the Indian Ocean. African slaves were thus recruited from East Africa to go and work in those plantations. ~ Africans were considered physically fit to work in harsh climatic conditions compared to the native red Indians and Europeans. This greatly increased the demand for the indigenous people (slaves). ----- 85 ### ~ The increased demand for sugar and cotton in Europe led to their increase in price and therefore more labour (slaves) was needed in the British colonies of West Indies and America. ~ Strong desire for European goods by African chiefs like Mirambo and Nyungu ya Mawe forced them to acquire slaves in exchange for manufactured goods such as brass, metal ware, cotton cloth, beads, spirits such as whisky, guns and gun powder. ~ The existence and recognition of slavery in East Africa societies. Domestic and child slavery already existed therefore Africans were willing to exchange slaves for European goods. ~ The huge profits enjoyed by middlemen like Arab Swahili traders encouraged the traders to get deeply involved in the trade. ~ The suitable winds and currents (monsoon winds) which eased transportation for slave traders greatly contributed to the rise of slave trade. ~ The Legalization of slave trade in 1802 by Napoleon 1 of France increased the demand for slaves in all French Colonies. ~ The increased number of criminals, war captives, destitute forced African chiefs to sell them off as slaves. ~ The Oman Arabs contributed to the rise in the demand for slaves. This is because they acted as middlemen between the African Swahili people, the Portuguese and French traders. They therefore worked very hard to get slaves in order to obtain revenue from them. ~ The invention of Spanish mines in West indices increased slave demands to work in the mines. ~ The exodus of slaves from East Africa to Northeast Africa, Arabia and Persia contributed to the increase in the demand for slaves. It led to an enormous number of slaves obtained from East Africa being transported to other countries. ~ The movement of Seyyid Saids capital to Zanzibar led to an increase in slave trade. This is because when Seyyid said settled in Zanzibar in 1840, he embarked on strong plans to open up slave trade routes to the interior of East Africa. This boosted slave trade, whereby the number of slaves being sold at the slave market in Zanzibar annually by that time, reached between 40000 and 45000 thousand slaves. ~ The outbreak of diseases like Nagana led to an increase in slave trade. This is because the beasts of burden (i.e. camels, donkeys, etc) could not be taken on many of the caravan routes. It therefore necessitated people themselves to be involved in the transportation of the trade goods and ivory. Such people included porters who were regarded as slaves, or free Africans who could sell their services in return for cloth and other trade goods. ~ Development of long distance trade that needed slaves to transport goods from the interior of East Africa. ~ Plantation farming increased in some areas, especially the clove plantations were slaves worked. ----- 86 ### **Organization of slave trade in E. Africa ** The middlemen involved were; Arab Swahili traders African chiefs. **Ways of obtaining slaves ** Selling of domestic slaves in exchange for goods like beads, guns, glass etc Selling of criminals, debtors and social misfits in society by the local chiefs to the Arab slave traders. Prisoners of war could be sold off. Porters were sometimes kidnapped, transported and sold off to the Arab traders. Raiding villages, this would begin at night with gun shoots and people would scatter consequently leading to their capture. ### Through inter tribal wars many Africans become destitutes and these would be captured by the slave traders. Tax offenders were sold off by the African chiefs. They were also captured through ambushes during hunting, travelling and gardening. Slaves would be acquired from the main slave trade market in Zanzibar. Other Africans are also said to have gone voluntarily in anticipation of great wonders and benefits from the Arab Swahili traders. Slave journey: - Slaves journey was a difficult one. They moved long distances on foot. Chained, whipped and sometimes killed on the way. Had little food and water and experienced extreme suffering. This is illustrated by a Quotation from Dr. David Livingstones Last Journal. London 1878:We passed a woman tied by the neck to a tree and dead we saw others tied up in a similar manner, and one lying in the path shot or stabbed for she was in a pool of blood. The explanation we got invariably was that the Arab who owned these victims was enraged at losing the money by the slaves becoming unable to march. ~ The main slave market where slaves were auctioned was at Zanzibar. ~ The journey across the India Ocean was horrible. ~ Crowded in ships with hardly any space to breath. Ships carried anything from 250 to 600 slaves. They were very overcrowded and packed like spoons with no room even to turn. ~ Whenever they saw anti-slave trade people, slaves would be thrown in the ocean ~ As a result many died in the process. **Effects/Impact of slave trade on people of E. Africa ** **Positive effects ** a) New foods were introduced through trade routes like maize, pawpaws, rice, groundnuts both at the coast and in the interior. b) Plantation farming increased in some areas, especially the clove plantations were slaves worked. ----- 87 ### c) The interior was opened to the outside world this later encouraged the coming of European missionaries. Many European Christian missionaries came to East Africa to preach against slave trade and to campaign for its abolition. d) The trade routes became permanent routes and inland roads which led to growth of communication networks. e) Swahili was introduced in land and is now being widely spoken in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda and Eastern Congo. f) Islam as a religion was introduced by Arabs and it spread, especially in Yao land and in Buganda land. g) A new race called Swahili was formed through intermarriages between Arabs and some Africans. h) There was growth of Arab towns such as Tabora and Ujiji inland. i) There was emergence of dynamic leaders such as Mirambo and Nyungu ya Mawe in the latter half of the nineteenth century. j) Slave trade strengthened the large and powerful states, which could easily get access to guns at the expense of small ones. k) Slave trade led to a situation whereby power became centralized and no longer with the small, local authority (segimentary societies) mainly to enable African chiefs directly control slave trade. l) Slave trade encouraged large-scale trade whereby contact was established between the trade masters and indigenous/local population. m) Africans were dispersed to other parts of the world e.g Arabia, America and West Indies. In Africa, Sierra-Leone and Liberia were founded to accommodate former slaves from Europe and America. **Negative effects ** a) African population was reduced; people who would have been great leaders and empire builders were killed. It is estimated that over 15 to 30 million people were sold in to slavery while other millions died in the process being transported. b) Slave trade brought misery, suffering and lowered the quality of people in East Africa this is because they were reduced to commodities which could be bought and sold on land. c) Villages and families were destroyed and broken up by slave raiders and never to be reunited this later resulted in to loss of identity. d) Diseases broke out among the overcrowded slaves for example the Spaniards introduced Syphilis and soon it spread to other traders. e) Slave trade led to displacement of people and many became homeless and destitute many and stayed in Europe with no identity. f) Economic activities such as farming were disrupted. This is because the young and able craftsmen, traders and farmers were carried off, causing economic stagnation as the economic workforce depleted. ----- 88 ### g) Progress slowed down, which resulted in famine, poverty and destitution and helplessness. h) There was a decline in production of traditional goods such as coffee, beans, bark cloth and iron which greatly hindered the cash economy. i) There was a decline in African industries which also faced a lot of competition from imported manufactured goods for example the Bark cloth and iron working industries. j) Guns were introduced into the interior which caused a lot of insecurity and increased incidences of wars for territorial expansion. k) Clans and tribal units, languages were broken and inter-tribal peace was disturbed for example Swahili language replaced the traditional languages in the interior. **Abolition of slave trade ** **Reasons why it was difficult to stop slave trade ** ~ Slavery existed before in Africa societies that is to say, domestic slavery and internal slave trade, which provided a favourable situation for continuation of the lucrative slave trade. ~ The Abolition movement which had begun in Britain and her overseas territory first took effect in West Africa. The decline in West African trade encouraged the expansion of trade in East Africa especially with America and West Indies. ~ Slave trade was difficult to stop because of division of African tribes against each other .This meant that African tribes would find it difficult to unite together and resist the slave traders, who raided their societies using organized bands of men. ~ Disregard of human life, many African rulers tended to put less value for the lives of their subjects whom they ruled for example quite often, a ruler of a tribe would easily order his warriors to attack the villages of his subjects and seize their property, kill some of them. ~ Active participation and willing cooperation of African chiefs and coastal traders who were making a lot of profits made the slave trade last for so long. ~ Many European countries depended on the products of slave labour in West Indies and America for example, British industries depended on raw sugar, raw cotton and unprocessed minerals from America which she was not willing to lose. ~ European slave merchants and Africans involved in the trade were blinded by the huge profits made from the trade. ~ There was smuggling of slaves outside the forbidden areas. Slave traders would pretend to sail northwards when sighted by British patrol ships but would change course after British navy ships had disappeared. ~ Other European countries refused to co-operate with Britain to end slave trade because they had not yet become industrialized, and therefore they still benefited from it for example Portugal and Spain. ----- 89 ### ~ The only economic alternative of slave trade was Agriculture which was not reliable compared to the booming slave trade. ~ The anti slavery campaign was too expensive for Britain alone to compensate slave owners. ~ Stopping slave trade in the interior was difficult because Arabs were in control of large areas. ~ The East African coastline was long which delayed the anti-slavery group penetration in the interior. ~ Due to the tropical climate, most British personnel were affected by malaria which hindered the stopping of Slave trade. ~ Seyyid Said and Barghash were always unwilling to end slave trade at once due to fear of losing revenue and risk of rebellion by Arabs who found it profitable. ~ The anti-slavery group was small compared to the East African Coast. ~ European powers continued with slave trade, they shipped the slave cargos in to ships bearing American Flags. **Factors that led to the abolition of slave trade ** It was the British government that began the abolition of the slave trade during the years,1822 - 1826 . This was because of the pressure by various groups based on different factors; a) Rise of humanitarians in Europe such as Christians and scholars condemned it on moral grounds. The missionaries wanted it to be stopped because they wanted good conditions for the spread of Christianity. The formation of the humanitarian movements in England aimed at stopping all kinds of cruelty including slave trade, flogging of soldiers and child labour. b) Industrialization in Britain was one of the main forces behind the abolition .E.g. Britain industrialists urged its abolition because they wanted Afr icans to be left in Africa so that Africa can be a source of raw materials for their industries, market for European manufactured goods and a place for new investment of surplus capital. c) Formation of Anti-slavery movement and the abolitionist movement in 1787. Its chairman was Granville Sharp and others like Thomas Clarkson, William Wilberforce who gathered facts and stories about the brutality of slave trade and slavery to arouse public opinion in Britain. d) Religious revival in Europe, Anglicans preached and condemned slave trade as being opposed to laws of God and humanity. Catholic popes also protested against the trade and prohibited it. In 1774, many religious leaders served as examples when they liberated their slaves in England. e) The French revolution of 1789 and the American revolution of 1776 emphasized liberty, equality and fraternity (brotherhood) of all human beings. As a result, people began to question whether anyone had a right to deprive fellow man of his liberty when he had done wrong. ----- 90 ### f) The British desire to protect their national interests, British planters wanted slave trade stopped to avoid competition with other European planters .This is because other planters were producing cheaper sugar, British sugar accumulated hence the need to stop over production. g) The rise of men with new ideas e.g. Prof. Adam Smith(challenged the economic arguments which were the basis of slave trade when he argued convincingly that hired labour is cheaper and more productive than slave labour, Rou sseau spread the idea of personal liberty and equality of all men. h) Slaves had become less profitable and yet had led to over population in Europe. i) Influential abolitionists like William Wilberforce ( a British member of parliament ) urged the British government to legislate against the slave trade in her colonies. j) The ship owners stopped transporting slaves from Africa and began transporting raw materials directly from Africa and America to Europe, which led to a decline in slave trade. **Steps in the abolition of slave trade ** The movement to abolish slave trade started in Britain with the formation of Antislavery movement. The British government abolished the slave trade through anti slave laws (Legislation), treaties and use of force. The Anti slavery movement was led by Granville sharp, other members were Thomas Clarkson, William Wilberforce and others. ~ The first step was taken in 1772 when slavery was declared illegal and abolished in Britain. The humanitarians secured judgment against slavery from the British court. ~ In 1807, British parliament outlawed slave trade for British subjects. ~ 1817 British negotiated the reciprocal search treaties with Spain and Portugal. ~ Equipment treaties signed with Spain 1835 Portugal 1842 and America 1862. ~ In E. Africa in 1822 Moresby treaty was signed between Captain Moresby and Sultan Seyyid Said it forbade the shipping of slaves outside the sultans territories. British ships were authorized to stop and search suspected Arab slave-carrying dhows. ~ In 1845, Hamerton treaty was signed between Colonel Hamerton and Sultan Seyyid Said. It forbade the shipping of slaves outside the Sultans East African possessions, i.e., beyond Brava to the north. ~ In 1871 the British set up a parliamentary commission of inquiry to investigate and report on slave trade in E. Africa. ~ In 1872 Sir Bartle Frere persuaded Sultan Barghash to stop slave trade but not much was achieved. On 5th March 1873, the Sultan passed a decree prohibiting the export of slaves from main land and closing of slave market at Zanzibar. Zanzibar slave market was to be closed within 24 hours. ~ 1876 the Sultan decreed that no slaves were to be transported overland. ~ 1897 decree left slaves to claim their freedom themselves ~ 1907, slavery was abolished entirely in Zanzibar and Pemba. ----- 91 ### ~ In 1927, slavery ended in Tanganyika when Britain took over from Germany after the 2nd world war. **Effects of abolition of slave trade ** a) The suppression of slave trade led to loss of independence that is to say, it confirmed among the Arabs and Swahilis that the Sultan had lost independence over the East African coast, and that he was now a British puppet . b) The suppression of slave trade led to development and growth of legitimate trade which provided equally profitable business to both Europeans and African traders. Many ship owners diverted their ships from transporting slaves to transporting raw cotton and raw sugar from Brazil and America. c) It accelerated the coming of European missionaries to East Af rica who emphasized peace and obedience thus the later European colonization of East Africa. d) Disintegration of the sultan Empire. This is because it loosened the economic and political control which the sultan had over the East African nations .His empire in E.A. therefore began to crumble .This gave opportunity to other ambitious leaders like Tippu- Tip to create an independent state in Manyema,where he began selling his ivory and slaves to the Belgians in Zaire. e) The abolition of slave trade was a catalyst to the partition of East Africa where by Britain took over Kenya, Zanzibar and Uganda and Germany took over Tanganyika. f) Slave trade markets were also closed for example Zanzibar in 1873 following the frre treaty signed between Sultan Barghash and Bantle Frere. g) Islam became unpopular as many converted to Christianity. h) African societies regained their respect and strength as they were no longer sold off as commodities. **Development and organization of long distance trade** Local trade refers to the exchange of goods among members of a community. Regional trade involves exchange of goods between a community and her neigbouring communities.Long distance trade was the exchange of trade goods between communities over long distance, for example between the east African interior and the east African coast. **The organization of long distance trade ** ~ The communities that participated in the long distance trade were the Akamba, Swahili, Arabs, Yao, nyamwezi, Mijikenda and Baganda. ~ The trade developed because of the demand for ivory in Europe and the United States of America, slaves for plantation agriculture at the coast and in Mauritius and reunion sugar plantations ~ Ivory and slaves from the interior were exchanged for cloth. Utensils, ironware, zinc and beads at the coast.The system of trade were barter. ----- 92 ### ~ The middlemen included the Mijikenda and the Akamba who obtained slaves and ivory from the interior. The Akamba adopted the long distance trade after the outbreak of famine in 1836 and due to the central location of their country. ~ The Akamba organized caravans that left for the coast on weekly basis to sell ivory, gum copra, honey, bees wax, rhinoceros horns and skins. They had prosperous traders like chief Kivoi who is remembered for organizing the trade. ~ They set up markets and routes in the interior. ~ The source of slaves and ivory extended as far as Mt. Kenya region, Baringo and the shores of Lake Victoria. ~ The trade led to the development of Mombasa and Lamu as important market points. ~ The Waswahili and Mijikenda traders were also used in the trading caravans to the interior. ~ By 1860s, Arabs and Swahili traders started penetrating to the interior of Kenya as far as Uganda. ~ In Kenya, the main trading centres were taveta, Mbooni hills, elureko in Wanga and Miazini near Ngong and along Lake Baringo. ~ By 1870, the Akamba dominance in the trade declined as a result of competition from the Arab and Waswahili traders who began penetrating into the interior to get goods from the source. ~ Movement between the interior and the coast was carried out in caravans along well defined routes. ~ The trade routes became insecure due to the Oromo and Maasai raids. ~ The abolition of slave trade also affected the long distance trade. ~ In Tanganyika, the Yao, nyamwezi, Arabs and Waswahili were great traders. The Yaoexchanged tobacco, hoes, and animal skins at Kilwa with imported goods like cloth and beads. They were also the principal suppliers of ivory and slaves to Kilwa. The Yao were the most active long distance traders in east Africa. ~ The Arabs and Waswahili traders organized caravans into the interior and set up markets and trade routes. They were given security by Seyyid said who signed treaties with Chief Fundikira of the Nyamwezi to allow the Arab traders to pass through his territory. ~ They established interior Arab settlements at Tabora which became the centre of Arab culture. ~ The nyamwezi organized trading expeditions under their chiefs upto the coast with ivory, copper, slaves, wax hoes, salt and copra. They returned with cloths, beads and mirrors. They established trade routes such as the route from Ujiji via Tabora to Bagamoyo. They travelled to Katanga in DRC for iron, salt and copper. By 1850 nyamwezi merchants such as Msiri, and leaders like Nyungu ya Mawe and Mirambo played a key role in the trade development. ----- 93 ### ~ When the Arab and Waswahili traders arrived in Buganda, the kabaka welcomed them because he needed their goods such as beads, cloths, guns etc. He also wanted assistance in aiding his neighbours. E.g the invasion of Busoga in 1848 was assisted by the Arab traders. From the raids to Bunyoro, Toro, and ankole and Buvuma and Ukerewe islands, the Baganda acquired cattle, ivory, slaves and grains which the sold to the Arabs. ~ The Khartoumers also practiced long distance trade. They raided the northern part of Uganda for ivory and slaves. ~ Arab and Waswahili traders ventured into the Bunyoro kingdom by 1877 for ivory. ~ There were three main trade routes that linked east African coast and the interior; a) From Mombasa through the Mijikenda area onto Taita-taveta then branching into two. One leading to Kilimanjaro onto the Lake Victoria region the diversion was to evade the hostile Maasai. . The other branch proceeded northwards from taveta across Galan River into Ukambani then to mt Kenya region and further west. Taveta became an important point on these routes. b) The route from Kilwa to Yao then branching southwards to Cewa in Zimbabwe. c) From Bagamoyo to Tabora where it branched northwards to Buganda and another branch to Ujiji then to Zaire. **MAP OF EAST AFRICA SHOWING TRADE ROUTES ** **Effects of the Long distance trade on the people of East Africa** a) The trade led to Development of towns e.g. Mombasa, Lamu, Kilwa, Pemba and Zanzibar. b) It increased the volume of local and regional trade as varieties of new goods were introduced. c) There was the Emergence of a class of wealthy Africans along the coast and the interior as Arab, African and Waswahili merchants acquired a lot of wealth. E.g. Kivoi of Ukambani, Ngonyo of Mijikenda, Tippu tip, Msiri, Nyungu ya mawe of nyamwezi, Mwakikonga of the Digo etc. d) There was Introduction of foreign goods such as beads, cloth and plates to the peoples of East Africa. e) The trade led to Introduction of new crops to the coast e.g. bananas, rice sugarcane and mangoes. f) Arab and Waswahili traders introduced Islam to the East African Coast. They also introduced Islamic culture along the coast. g) Development of plantation agriculture in Malindi and Mombasa due increased slave trade. h) It led to the development of trade routes and market centres in the region. Such routes later became important highways during the colonial rule and upto today. i) Traders gave reports about the coast, its strategic and commercial stability leading to the colonization of East Africa. j) It led to the development of a money economy that replaced barter trade ----- 94 ### k) The trade facilitated the colonization of east Africa as the interior was exposed to the outside world. **Development and organization of international trade** The east African coast also participated in international trade during the 19 Th century with traders from different countries such as USA, Britain and France. **Factors that facilitated the development of international trade** a) The existing earlier trade links between east Africa and the Far East before this period. b) The existence of regional trade which became a means through which goods such as ivory were acquired from the interior to be used in the international trade. c) The role played by Seyyid said through encouraging the foreign traders to come to the coast. He even signed treaties with them. He also gave letters of introduction to the Arab caravans leading into the interior. d) The improvement of the monetary system by Seyyid said facilitated the trade. He introduced the small copper coins from India to supplement the silver currency (Maria Theresa dollars and the Spanish Crown). He also employed the services of the Indian Banyans or Baluchis (Money Lenders) who organized credit facilities for the caravans going into the interior. e) There was a high demand for goods from the coast and the international community. Trade goods on demand were also readily available. E.g Gold ivory slaves cloths, beads, and guns. f) The existence of deep natural harbours and the attractive beaches lured many foreigners to the region. g) The existence of a class of wealthy merchants facilitated the trade. h) The establishment of specific trade routes and markets such as Zanzibar, Kilwa and Mombasa facilitated the movement and exchange of goods. i) The sultans identification of Britain as the sole trading agents in the interior overcame any rivalries which could have led to competition and decline of regional trade which would have in turn affected the international trade. j) The development of a sound trading policy by Seyyid said to ensure international market for his grains, coconuts and ivory. He developed trade links with Europe and America by signing treaties with USA in 1833 that opened a consulate in Zanzibar in 1837. He signed a similar treaty with Britain in 1839 that opened a consulate in Zanzibar in 1941. With France in 1844 and Germany in 1871.The arrival of IBEACo with William McKinnon further strengthened international trade links and increased the volume trade. **Consequences of international trade ** a) Through the trade, the east African coast was exposed to the outside world. b) Some of the European traders later spread their faith thus leading o the spread of Christianity in east Africa. c) The international trade fostered good relations between the east African coast and European nations and USA. ----- 95 ### d) The contacts between the coast and European powers later contributed to the colonization o east Africa by Britain and Germany. e) New trade goods and crops were introduced to the coast. f) Participants in the trade grew richer and exhibited high standards of living. g) The slave trade led to sufferings, killings and increased warfare. **CHRISTIAN MISSIONARIES IN EAST AFRICA ** **Introduction ** Christian missions were organized efforts to spread the Christian faith for the purpose of extending religious teaching at home or abroad. Their coming of Christian missionaries to East Africa and Africa in general was based on a number of motives which were humanitarian, economic, political and social in nature. The Portuguese were the first to introduce Christianity to the east African coast in the 15 [th] c.This attempt however had little success. By the 19th century, a number of missionary groups worked in East Africa and these included; 1. The Church Missionary Society 2. The Holy Ghost Fathers 3. The University Missionary Society to Central Africa 4. The White Fathers 5. The Methodist Fathers 6. The Mill Hill Fathers 7. The London Missionary Society Reasons for the coming of Christian missionaries in East Africa a) The missionaries had the ambition to spread Christianity to the people of East Africa. This would be through preaching and teaching the holy gospel so that many would get converted to Christianity. b) They wanted to fight against slave trade in East Africa. Earlier travelers like John Speke and James Grant, H.M. Stanley, Dr. David Livingstone and others had reported about the evils of slave trade in East Africa. c) They wanted to check on the spread of Islam in East Africa from the coast with intentions of converting many to Christianity. d) Some missionaries came because they had been invited by certain African chiefs, For example, Mutesa I of Buganda wrote a letter through H.M Stanley inviting missionaries to Buganda. e) They came to establish legitimate trade in East Africa. They, for instance wanted to trade in items like glass, cloths, etc. as Dr. Livingstone told Cambridge University students, I go back to Africa to make an open pass for commerce and Christianity.. Similarly, his speech in 1857 emphasized the unity between Christianity and Commerce. f) The missionaries also loved to adventure and explore the interior of East Africa. For example Dr. John Ludwig Kraft of CMS is said to have been the first European to see Mt. Kenya while Johann Redman was the first to see Mt. Kilimanjaro. ----- 96 ### g) They had a mission to clear the way for the colonization of East Africa. The missionaries were tasked by their home governments to preach ideas of love, respect, brotherhood, forgiveness, tolerance and non violence so that when the colonialists come, they would meet less resistance from the East Africans. h) Its also argued that missionaries wanted to civilize East Africans. They argued that they came to stop some of the barbaric acts and customs e.g. Female Genital Mutilation among the Kikuyu in Kenya, human sacrifices and the practice of killing twins. i) The information they gave about important places like the source of the Nile, fertile soils, river falls and the climate all attracted the missionaries into East Africa. Early contacts by travelers like Stanley, Speke and Grant, among others encouraged missionaries to come. j) The expulsion of some of the missionaries from other parts of Africa led them into East Africa. For example Johann Ludwig Kraft and Johann Redman are said to have been expelled from Ethiopia around 1842 before they chose to relocate to East Africa. **Missionary Activities in East Africa ** The pioneer missionaries in East Africa were the Church Missionary Society led by the Germans John Krapt and Johann Rebmann who arrived in East Africa around 1844 and 1846 respectively. Krapt arrived and established a mission station at Rabai. When they realized they were not making any great impact at the coast, the two moved into the interior visiting the Akamba and Taita. The CMS set up stations in Taita and taveta.They were the first Europeans to see Mount Kilimanjaro in 1847. Krapt discovered the source of River Tana and was the first European to see Mount Kenya in 1849. In 1949, Jacob Erhardt, a Germany explorer joined them and became the first European to draw a crude map of east Africa fro then stories he heard from traders. In 1862, the united Methodist Church led by Thomas Wakefield arrived from Britain and settled at the coast. They established a station at Rabai. They also set up mission stations at Jomvu and Lamu. They were able to convert some people among the Mijikenda. In 1863, the University Mission Society to Central Africa moved to Zanzibar where a mission was started from Re-union and later to Bagamoyo. Cardinal Lavigeries formation of the White Fathers Mission in Algeria (1863) extended to other parts of Africa. In 1875, Freetown Mission a centre for freed slaves was established. By 1889, about 1400 slaves had settled in Freetown. In 1877, the Church Missionary Society mission arrived in Buganda while the white fathers arrived in 1879. In 1891, the Presbyterian Church of Scotland arrived in Kenya and began their work at Kibwezi in Machakos. In 1898, the Church of Scotland Mission arrived at Kikuyu and set up a mission station at Thogoto. Members of the African Inland Church from the United States of America established their station at Nzaui in Machakos. They then spread to Kijabe, Nandi, Kabarnet and Nyakach in Nyanza. The catholic missionary societies, like the Holy Ghost Fathers and the Consolata Fathers arrived in Zanzibar but later moved to Mombasa in 1890 . They advanced interior and founded stations among the Akamba and ----- 97 ### among the Agikuyu towards the end of the Century. The Holy Ghost fathers established a station at St Austins near Nairobi in 1899 while the Consolata fathers from Italy opened a station in Nyeri in 1907The Mill Hill Fathers reached Kenya from Uganda.In 1902, the Friends Missions arrived at Kaimosi. By 1914 there were many missionary societies working in western Kenya. For example, the Seventh Day Adventists, the Quakers (Friends Mission) and the Church of God Mission. The roles of these missionaries varied enormously depending on the colonial context and their relations with the colonial authorities. **Missionaries in Tanganyika ** The missionaries here enjoyed the support of the sultan of Zanzibar, Seyyid Said. At Zanzibar, the Roman Catholic missionaries began to follow the lead of CMS in taking interest in East Africa. The CMS began a freed slave centre at Freetown in 1875 where the freed slaves were taught Christianity and formal education. The slave villages later became Christian outposts. The CMS finally reached Uganda in 1879 where they were later joined by the White Fathers from Tabora and Ujiji.In 1863, a group of missionaries from the Holy Ghost Fathers arrived from Reunion where they had been working among freed slaves and began their work in Zanzibar. They also began a freed slave settlement at Bagamoyo. By 1885, they had set up five villages that were to act as Christian outposts Missionary work in Tanganyika was motivated by the reports given by Dr, David Livingstone on the horrors of slave trade.In 1863, the University Mission Society to Central Africa under Bishop Tozer moved to Zanzibar where a mission was started from Re-union and later to Bagamoyo. Dr.Livingstone of UMCA also worked I Ujiji in 1871 where he met with Henry Morton Stanley, a journalist who had been sent to look for him. In 1875, the London Missionary Society set up a mission post around Lake Tanganyika. **Missionaries in Uganda ** The pioneer missionaries were the members of the CMS based in Tabora, Tanganyika. The first protestant missionaries were sent from England in 1876 after a letter that was sent by Henry Morton Stanley confirming Kabaka Mutesa Is invitation. They came in through Tabora and Usukuma and reached Rubaga, mutesas capital in 1877 where they set up a church. In 1879, the Roman Catholic Missionaries and White Fathers followed also from Tabora and Kibanga.The Protestants and Catholics were supported by Kabaka Mwanga though he did not want them to work outside the capital and beyond the royal family. This arrangement did not favour Missionary work in Uganda.Soon there ensued rivalry between the Catholics and protestants. The kabaka had also embraced Muslims and African traditionalists to the level of generating the infamous religious and political conflicts that rocked the kingdom eventually leading to its colonization.Missionary work expanded upto lake Nyasa. For example the Scottish Mission of the Livingstone Mission and the church of Scotland Mission set upstatations around lake Nyasa in 1876. **Activities of Christian missionaries in East Africa ** The following were the activities carried out by the Christian missionaries in East Africa. ----- 98 ### a) Missionaries carried out evangelization. They tried to convert and baptize many people into Christianity from their paganism and Islam. b) Christian missionaries carried out linguistic research and came up with new developments in language. Dr Kraft for example translated the Bible into Swahili and wrote a Swahili dictionary and grammar hence making it easy for people to understand the Bible more. c) The Christian missionaries built many churches in East Africa many of which are still in existence. They for example set up a church at Zanzibar, Rubaga and Rabai missionary station near Mombasa. This enhanced evangelization into the local population. d) They carried out exploration work into the discovery of various East African physical features. For example, Kraft was the first European to see Mt. Kenya in 1849 while Rebmann was the first to European see Kilimanjaro in 1848. e) Christian missionaries set up stations for free rehabilitation services for example in 1868 the Holy Ghost Fathers set up a home for the free slaves at Zanzibar. f) Christian missionaries participated in skill development in East Africa. They for example participated in modernizing Agriculture and carpentry by setting up agricultural institutionsand carpentry workshops for training. g) Christian missionaries were also influential in establishing educational institutions and training efficient class of African clergy (catechists) who were close and more understandable to the local communities. This helped and enhanced the propagation of faith. h) Christian missionaries were at times involved in political processes that were beyond spiritual jurisdiction. They for example participated in the overthrow of Kabaka Mwanga of Buganda. They also acted as front runners in the colonization process. **Reasons for the success of missionary work in East Africa ** a) The missionaries faced no strong opposition from any religion. Islam was only greatly dominant at the coast. b) The evils of slave trade made East Africans welcome missionaries as liberators. Their campaign against slave trade won them much support from different tribes in East Africa. c) The support they got from some of the local chiefs and kings led to their success. For instance, the sultan of Zanzibar gave them immense support. Mutesa I of Buganda and Mirambo of Nyamwezi all gave them protection as well as rights to do their work in their territories. d) The earlier explores helped to map out potential areas of East Africa for smooth missionary work. For instance, H.M Stanley had identified Buganda as a hospitable community for the missionaries and they were later welcomed by the Kabaka of Buganda in 1877. e) The support missionaries got from their home governments led them to success. This was inform of finance and physical manpower for instance colonial governments gave protection to the missionaries whenever they were challenged by local chiefs or other ----- 99 ### threats. For instance Captain Lugard supported the Prot estants in the religious wars in Buganda. f) Some missionary groups sought for alliances with African chiefs. Such treaties of friendship made their work easy since the chiefs would call on their subjects to take on the missionary teachings. g) The missionaries efforts to translate the bible into several local languages helped them succeed for example Kraft translated the New Testament of the Bible into Swahili and wrote a Swahili dictionary and a Grammar book. h) The missionaries also received the support of African converts in spreading the Gospel. Converts could now teach in their mother tongue and therefore overcame the language barrier. i) The industrial revolution had provided such technology like the printing press which made printing of bibles and other academic work easy. j) Their efforts in life saving services like medical care (Quinine) won them great admiration among the people of East Africa that few were ready to oppose them. The discovery of quinine also facilitated their work as it cured tropical diseases. k) The missionaries practical skills enabled them to survive even when their supplies from home delayed. They for instance adopted agriculture as soon as they settled anywhere. This ensured steady supply of food. l) The building of the Kenya Uganda railway greatly encouraged missionary work in the interior. The missionaries could now travel between the coast and the interior. m) Political stability in East Africa favoured missionary work because missionaries could settle. n) The emergence of the African independent church movement boosted the spread of Christianity. African initiatives to Africanize Christianity encouraged its growth in East Africa.. o) The death of Dr. David Livingstone in 1873 and other earlier missionaries increased the determination by many groups to see missionary work succeed in Africa, and East Africa in particular. E.g. the London news paper wrote after his death, the work for Africa must hence forth begin in earnest where Livingstone left it off. p) Establishment of resettlement centers for freed slaves e.g. at Bagamoyo and Frere town near Mombasa where skills like carpentry, and agriculture were taught. Such communities thus looked at missionary work as a life- saving mission **Problems faced by missionaries in East Africa ** Christian missionaries in East Africa were faced with various problems which clipped their activities at times. These include: ----- 100 ### a) They faced the problem of language barrier. This was because East Africa had a multiplicity of languages hence rendering communication between the missionaries and the local people very difficult. b) There was a problem of the influence of Islam. Arabs being the first group of people to arrive at the coast and interior had deep rooted Islam into the people thus making it difficult for the people to easily adopt Christianity. For example, by the time Sir Edward Frere arrived in East Africa (1873) Rebmann had only 6 converts. c) Existence of tropical diseases was yet another problem faced by the Christian missionaries. Tropical diseases like malaria, small pox, claimed many missionary lives thus making progress in their activities very difficult since they could be left very few in numbers. d) Another hardship was caused by geographical barriers. These included hilly areas, rivers, lakes and forests. These hindered their free movement to various places thus a threat to their activities. e) Divisions and quarrels between various missionary groups for example Catholics versus Protestants was a hindrance to their activities. This could create divisions and biases among the believers thus weakening their capacity to convert more converts. f) Poor transport was a hindrance to the missionary activities in East Africa. This was due to undeveloped roads at the time to help in the movement of missionaries from one place to another. g) Presence of hostile tribes in East Africa was also a problem that faced Christian missionaries. The Nandi and Maasai who believed that strangers were not supposed to pass via their land could attack and kill many missionaries thereby reducing their numbers compared to the increasing number of converts. h) The presence of wild animals was also a threat to the missionary activities in East Africa. Man enters in Tsavo National Park consumed and threatened many whites. This clipped their activities at times. i) The missionaries faced the problem of lack of supplies. They for example lacked enough money, accommodation and drugs. This was because they originated from very far (Europe) thus making it difficult for them to have full time and constant supplies. Such put their lives at risk and could sometimes lead to death. j) The Christian missionaries faced the problem of stiff contradiction and rivals between European missionaries and traditional Africans. Customs like polygamy, satanic worship, etc were deep rooted into African communities which proved a threat for the missionaries to successfully uproot them. k) The missionaries made their work difficult by involving in politics and judicial systems which were beyond spiritual jurisdiction. Local leaders could misinterpret them as political rivals and organize their masses for resistance against missionary activities. ----- 101 ### **Effects of missionaries in East Africa ** (a) They spread Christianity and baptized many converts. Catechists were also trained who helped in the spread of Christianity for example, in Kenya by 1911 many people had been converted and many cathedrals and churches were built like the Kikuyu churches (Charismatic Arathi or spirit churches.) (b) African religious beliefs, culture and traditions were despised and demoralized for example the birth and murder of twins, human sacrifice. (c) They established hospitals and clinics which offered modern medicine plus research in tropical diseases like malaria, small pox, yellow fever and sleeping sickness which had claimed many lives. For example, the Mission Hospitals at Rabai, Thogoto, Kaimosi e.t.c. Dr Albert Cook built Mengo hospital. (d) They introduced the European system of management and styles of dress and architecture which have been adopted by many people in East Africa today. (e) They put to an end the inter-tribal or inter-village wars and established a stable and peaceful society under one faithful leader (centralization). (f) They studied African languages and translated the Bible into various languages. For example Kraft translated the New Testament of the Bible into Swahili, Bishop Edward Steere based inZanzibar learnt and studied Swahili and translated books from English to Swahili, published the New Testament and the entire Bible in 1891. (g) They established printing presses like Marianum press and published newspapers. (h) They opened up primary and secondary schools as well as training collages for teachers and trade schools for craftsmen e.g. Alliance High School, Kisubi Vocational School. In the technical schools, carpentry and brick laying skills were obtained. (i) A new class of elite emerged. Africans educated mainly in English and French emerged, these later served as doctors, lawyers, clerks, teachers, catechists, agriculturalists and priests who played a great role of spreading Christianity. For example, in 1890, Africans were ordained as priests of the University Mission to Central Africa in Tanganyika. (j) They paved way for the improvement of agriculture through establishing experimental farms and plantations where new crops, better methods of farming and equipment were introduced for example cotton was introduced by Kenneth Boroup in 1903 and Africans were taught how to use a plough and how to grow coffee. (k) Missionaries improved communication and transport which in turn led to the opening up of the hinterland of Africa. The building of strong boats and ships gave Europeans courage to travel far from home. (l) Missionaries destroyed local industries like craft industry e.g. blacksmiths, pottery work were all destroyed and replaced with European products e.g. manufactured items like cups, saucepans, etc. ----- 102 ### (m) They contributed to the rise of nationalism. This was made possible through education where the African elite emerged and started demanding for independence e.g. Tom Mboya, Obote, Nyerere, and Kenyatta. (n) They fought slave trade which was later abolished and equality and liberty for all was encouraged in East Africa. (o) Mission stations were developed in towns like Rabai missionary station near Mombasa. **Role of Christian missionaries in the colonization of East Africa ** a) Missionaries signed treaties which were later used by colonialists to take over colonies e.g. Tucker, a British Missionary interpreted the 1900 Buganda Agreement to the regents of Kabaka Daudi Chwa II. This led to loss of political, economic and social powers to the British protectorate government. Sir Harry John stone who signed on behalf of the British government confessed that; b) Missionaries supplied information to the colonialists which they utilized to plan how to effectively impose their colonial rule on how to crash the African resistance. In the religious wars in Buganda, the British fought behind the Protestants. c) In fact there was a reciprocal relationship between missionaries and the colonialists that is why missionaries laid the ground work before the partitioners offered missionaries protection for the success of their evangelization mission. d) The Church missionary society managed to raise enough funds for Imperial British East African Company for its staying in Uganda for at least 2 or more years. The church missionary society and Captain Lugard viewed that the companys withdraw would live theBritish and the protestant party in a dangerous position versus Moslems. e) Missionaries enhanced the growth of tropical raw materials like coffee, cotton to satisfy the British industrialists urge but disguising everything in Christianity. Bishop K. Boroup for example introduced cotton in Uganda. f) They appealed to their home governments for protection in case of attack. It is in this light that Britain came to Uganda during the religious wars of 1884-1892 and later occupied Uganda. g) They created a collaborating class by luring it religiously and materially. This class helped colonialists to fight resistors despite the fact that they were all Africans. h) In their evangelization role, they brain washed Africans with biblical teachings as love your neighbor as you love yourself, blessed are the humble for the kingdom of God is theirs, etc. With these preachings they made potential resistance important. i) Religion was a mechanism of divide and rule. The converts and the non-converts hated each other which caused division to the advantage of the Europeans. j) Collaboration with chattered companies, European Christian missionaries and their converts worked hand in hand with the Imperial British East African Company to defeat Kabalegas resistance. k) Missionary stations served as military bases from where the European colonial forces ----- 103 ### launched attacks on the resisting Africans. African Lugard used old Kampala hill as a military base against Kabalega. l) Mission stations served as colonial government headquarters. The established mission infrastructure was used to help in the establishment and sustenance of European colonial m) Colonialists lacked skilled manpower, so the missionaries by design or accident were very faithful servants of the colonial government i.e. they were Colonial government servants. n) They created a peaceful atmosphere for the germination of colonialism in areas of hostility. This is because they emphasized the centralized leadership where peace and obedience were expected. o) Missionaries also trained manpower through introduction of education which was used by colonialists. This was done through teaching those academic subjects and manual skills like use of a plough and how to grow coffee. p) They acted as interpreters e.g. Tucker in the 1900 Buganda agreement. q) Through conversion of the Buganda chiefs and pages before Buganda commoners it meant that each party i.e. the Church Missionary Society and France had gained converts. This was a political security of sympathy to the Christian missionaries as against the Kabaka in Bugandas leadership. This indirectly undermined the Kabakas authority and respect i.e. his traditional power base was being eroded. **CITIZENSHIP ** **What is citizenship? ** This refers to the legal right of a person to belong to a particular country.

Man must have started trading soon after the evolution of the homo sapien sapiens. Trade was occasioned by the existence of varying environmental and climatic conditions. Trade arises from the basic human needs such as satisfying food requirements **Methods of trade** There are two main methods of trade; 1. Barter trade 2. Currency trade. a) Barter trade This is the exchange of gods for gods. It is one of the earliest forms of trade that was even taking place during the reign of King Solomon of the Bible.Barter trade emerged from the natural needs of the people. For example, among the Kenyan pre-colonial communities such as the Maasai who kept livestock but did not have grains which the neighbouring kikuyu possessed. Barter trade sometimes even took place within the same community where some people had some special talents that others did not possess. E.g ironsmiths.A form of barter trade known as silent trade was practiced in some areas where the two involved communities could not speak the same language. For example, it existed between Morocco and Carthage in 400 BC.Barter trade can still be witnessed in the modern society. For example, Kenya exchanges tea and coffee with petroleum, chemicals and machinery from other countries. Barter trade however has the following disadvantages; a) It may involve bulky goods in the transaction. b) There may lack double coincidence. It is difficult always to get the goods one wants. c) Lack of standards of deferred payment; if a good was borrowed, it would be difficult to decide whether the same value was returned later or not. d) Some goods cannot be sub-divided into smaller units. If one wanted cloth equal to a half a sheep, then he could not divide the sheep into two parts. e) Lack of store of value for some goods which cannot be stored for a long time since they are perishable. E.g. milk, vegetables. ----- 121 ### f) Lack of measures of value; a specific quantity of goods cannot be measured vis--vis other goods. **Advantages of barter system ** a) Poor countries without adequate foreign currencies benefit from it by being able to exchange goods they have for what they do not have. b) It benefits where money is non-existent. c) It avoids wastage as demand and supply tend to equate. d) It promotes interaction hence good relationship, peace and stability especially among traditional African societies. **b) Currency trade** This is a type of trade that involves the use of money. Money is an item that is mutually recognized as a medium of exchange or a measure of value. In the pre-colonial times items like Gold dust, cloth, copper rods, and iron and cowrie shells were used as a form of currency. **Advantages of the use of money in trade** a) Money is a medium of exchange- it is needed to obtain goods or services. b) Money as a measure of value enables units of goods to be bought. A specific quantity of goods can be measured Visa- Vis other goods. c) Money is a standard of deferred (future) payments which allows borrowing and lending to take place. d) It is a store of value- one is able to defer satisfaction of a want to future times or make provision for ones want at a future date. e) It is a means through which immovable property can be transferred. For example when one sells a house in one city to go and dwell in another. f) Money as a unit of account is used as a calculating medium and assigning prices of goods and services. g) Money is easily divisible into smaller units. For example, if a product is valued at a lower price, the buyer only pays the agreed cost. h) The qualities of money and its functions overcome the difficulties of barter. Money however becomes valuable only when those using it have confidence that it will continue to retain its value during the period it is in possession.Technology today has made the use of currency easier. There is the use of Visa Card and Mobile money services like Mpesa and Airtel Money to carry out transactions.Difference between barter trade and trade in which currency is used as a medium of exchange. a) In barter trade goods are exchanged for goods/in currency trade, there is use of money as a measure of value. b) In barter trade depends on the existence of a double coincidence of needs but in currency method one meets his needs by the use of money. c) Items used for barter trade are bulky (some) and inconvenient to handle -and others perishable. Money is not bulky. ----- 122 ### **Local trade ** This refers to the exchange of goods between people within the same geographical area such as a village or town. **Origin of local trade ** This form of trade took place between groups of people who produced different goods mainly because of varying ecological conditions. It was motivated by the following factors; a) Existence of surplus production e.g. where some communitys harvest was excess; they could sell the excess commodity to carter for shortages elsewhere and to avoid wastage. b) Differences in climate and environmental conditions which affected the type of natural resources available in various places/ not all needs of a particular community can be satisfied by the resources available hence trade. The kikuyu of Nyeri had to go to Mathira for their foodstuff requirements during drought periods. c) Specialization and improved technology which always creates a need to exchange skills and goods with those who do not have. E.g trade between Mathira kikuyu cultivators and the Mukurwe-ini kikuyu ironmongers and weavers. Some even exchanged skills for money. d) Population increase making man to begin to supplement his needs by trading with his neighbors.Sometimes, this trade extended even beyond the local community to the neighbouring community. The Abagusii, for example, acquired hides, milk, snake poison, and pottery items from their Luo Neighbours. Some seasonal markets emerged which enabled traders to meet and exchange goods on particular days of the week. **Factors that facilitated development of local trade** a) Availability of capital for investments in trade to generate more wealth. b) Specialization and improved technology, e.g. specialization in production, in technology and in marketing. Sometimes people even exchanged their skills for money. c) Demand and supply; the growing demand for goods and services was met by increase in supply. d) Enterprise; many people began to take greater risk and invested more in trade. e) Peace and stability. This enabled people to interact more and hence the growth and expansion of trade. **Impact of local trade ** a) There was development of market places which specialized in certain items like pottery, iron tools and baskets. Others specialized in livestock b) Local trade helped to strengthen bonds between people in the same locality. It even enhanced intermarriages and other social functions. c) Local trade satisfied the requirements of the communities in terms of tools, foodstuff s, medicinal herbs etc. ----- 123 ### d) Local trade enhanced acquisition of new products that a particular community did not produce. e) There was an improvement of transport routes. Some markets were strategically located along transport routes. f) In centralized governments like Buganda, Bunyoro-Kitara, Mali, Ghana and Wanga, the local markets that developed due to the trade became important sources of revenue for the kingdoms. In Bunyoro-Kitara for example, the Omukama had officers whose duty was to collect taxes from the market places. g) Many people were brought together through trade. In BunyoroKitara, communities like the Alur, Acholi, Langi, Basoga, Baganda, Kumani, Iteso and Banyankole interacted through trade. NB; the greatest danger to the local traders was that they risked being attacked by hostile communities and wild animals. **Regional trade** This refers to a type of trade between two distinct geographical regions **Characteristics of regional trade** ~ It Takes place within a bigger geographical area. ~ It Involves intermediaries or middlemen between producers and the buyers. ~ The trade often covers long distances to and from the market. ~ It involves people who specialize mainly in trade as their means of livelihood. ~ Larger Varieties of goods are involved. In regional trade there existed established markets but goods did not have to be sold on a particular market days like the case of local trade. It also involved large volumes of trade as compared to local trade Examples of regional trade included : a) The Trans-Saharan trade b) The long-distance trade. **The trans-Saharan trade ** Trans means across. This was therefore the exchange of goods across the Sahara between the peoples of North Africa (Berbers and Tuaregs) and the people of western Sudan (the darkskinned people who occupy the region south of the Sahara) The West African kingdoms of Mali, Ghana and Songhai were involved in this trade.Development of the trans-Saharan trade. (8th-16thc AD) **Factors that led to the development of the trans-Saharan trade ** a) Demand for West African good such as gold, slaves and kola nuts by the North Africans and for North African goods like horses, cotton cloth and weapons by the west Sudan people. b) Existence of rich merchants in the region, such as the Berbers and Tuaregs, who provided capital for investment in the trade/ availability of capital. ----- 124 ### c) Existence of Local trade in the western Sudan belt and among the barbers and Tuaregs provided a base for the regional trade. d) Existence of the Tuaregs, who provided security to traders, guided them through the deserts and maintained some water points like the oases where the Berber merchants watered their camels and rested before continuing with their journey to and from western Sudan. e) Availability of well established trade routes across the desert which made it easy for the traders to travel. f) Existence of Kings in western Sudan like Mansa Musa of Mali and Askia Muhamed of Songhai who provided protection to traders, ensured peace and political stability. g) Availability of pack animals like the camel and the horse which enabled easy movement through the desert. The camel could carry heavy loads and travel long distances without water. h) Existence of oases which became a source of water during the travels, for the camels and the traders. i) Invasion of North Africa by the Arabs and their eventual settlement led to increase in the volume of trade. j) There were also vast trade goods like gold, palm oil and ivory. This stimulated the development of trans-Saharan trade. **The trade goods in the trans-Saharan trade** **From western Sudan; ** a) Gold- this was by far the most important commodity that originated from the wangara region, Bornu, Upper Senegal and upper Niger. b) Slaves- they were forcefully captured and later used as soldiers and labourers in the Arab world. c) Kola nuts and feathers. Monopoly of the Hausa traders from Kano region. d) Hides and skins- from Hausa land for making leather clothing and shoes. e) Ivory- originated from western belt mainly from cote divore. f) Gum- from Mauritania and Senegal g) Dyed cloth and pepper **From the north** a) Salt- from Taghaza, Taodeni, Bilma and Ghadames. b) Horses- from Tripoli were on demand among the political leaders and their soldiers. c) Glassware, beads, mirrors, perfumes, spices, dried fruits, needles, firearms, daggers and cowrie shells. **Organization of the trans-Saharan trade** Beginning of Trans-Saharan Trade was due to the fact that North Africa was rich in the salt that West Africa lacked while West Africa was rich in gold. The Trans-Saharan trade led to an exchange of salt for gold.The trade was between people of the western Sudan and Arabs from North Africa.Because of the long distance involved, the traders had to ----- 125 ### organize themselves very well. Traders travelled in large caravans of camels and traders to enhance their security.The rich traders from North Africa initiated the trade. They provided trade goods, camels and horses to middlemen who coordinated the trade. The middlemen would contact desert guides known as takshifs who also acted as desert guards.They protected the traders and guarded the oases in the Sahara .The Tuaregs also provided the traders with security and acted as interpreters.The caravans usually departed from the north after the rainy season when sandstorms would subside for smooth travel. The traders made stops at the oases to refresh themselves and let their camels drink water. They carried gifts for leaders of the communities along the route to appease them and as reciprocation for security while traveling through their kingdoms. Rulers of western Sudan offered service to the traders while they were in the territory.The trade was conducted in barter/ exchanging one good for another/ silent trade. Some of the caravan traders used agents who sold goods on their behalf in the interim period between their departure back to the north until the time they came back to western Sudan. The rulers of western Sudan controlled trade/regulated amount of gold to be sold . The traders paid taxes to the kings of western Sudan.The main items of trade were gold and salt i.e. from the west came gold, ivory, slaves, ostrich feathers, leather, kola nuts and pepper. From the north came salt, horses, weapons, iron implements, clothes, silk and beads. Arabs and Berbers financed the trade.The traders followed fairly defined route. The most important routes were as follows; a) A route Starting at Sijilmasa (an oasis) in Morocco through Taghaza (a desert town with a lot of salt) and ended at Andaghost in western Sudan. b) A route starting in Tunis and passing through Ghadames, Ghat, Agades and Gao. Then it passed through Hausaland, Gonja and eventually ended at Yorubaland in modern Nigeria. c) A route beginning at Sijilmasa and passing through Timbuktu before proceeding to Gao. d) A route beginning at Tripoli passing through Fezzan and eventually ending at Bornu in the Sudan Belt. **Challenges faced by the trans-Saharan traders ** a) There was Communication barrier due to lack of a common language for transactions. This was a challenge during the pioneer years. b) Traveling long distances for many months, usually up to three months, across the desert was tedious and stressful. c) Traveling under extreme weather conditions; too hot during the day and too cold at night. d) Scarcity of water and food during the journeys. The traders suffered serious sickness due to such extreme weather variations. e) There were constant Attacks by hostile communities who sometimes robbed them of their merchandize. ----- 126 ### f) Traders were sometimes attacked by insects like scorpions and wild animals. g) The traders sometimes suffered from Loss of direction due to the vastness of the desert. h) Exposure to frequent sandstorms which killed many traders. i) Sometimes wars between kingdoms disrupted trade. **Impact of the trans-Saharan trade ** **Positive impact; ** a) The trade stimulated the emergence of urban centres along the trade routes. Towns like Taghaza and Timbuktu developed due to the production of trade commodities like salt and gold respectively. b) Profits from the trade stimulated the growth of strong empires as the kings levied taxes on the caravan traders. Examples of such empires include Mali, Ghana and Songhai. c) Introduction of horses in the western Sudan belt led to strengthening of the state armies as horses were used by the armies to boost security in the region. d) A class of wealthy traders emerged in western Sudan. These were mainly the local merchants who interacted with the merchants from North Africa. e) The trade stimulated the emergence and growth of smithing technology and industry. f) The trade led to the introduction of iron tools in wider areas of western Sudan. This boosted agricultural production in western Sudan and ensured food security in the area. g) There was population increase in western Sudan due to increased food production as a result of better farming tools. h) It also enhanced contacts between North Africa and the Suda n belt. This facilitated the spread of European goods and ideas between the peoples of the two regions. i) The trade facilitated the spread of Islamic religion in the Sudan belt. For example, the Hausa traders were converted to Islam. j) There was introduction of the Islamic system of education in the Sudan belt. The University of Timbuktu for example, teaching mainly Islamic syllabus, was one of the institutions that emerged as a result of the trade. k) Sharia law was introduced in the states that accepted Islam in western Sudan. l) The trade led to the introduction of the Arabic architectural designs in West Africa. m) The Islamic and Arabic culture-language, mode of dressing and eating mannerisms also spread to western Sudan. n) The mode of transport in the region was remarkably revolutionized by theintroduction of camels and horses making transport efficient. **Negative impacts: ** a) The trade increased warfare in the region as communities gained access to firearms and horses. Thousands of people lost their lives. b) Many people in the western Sudan belt were captured and taken into slavery to meet the demands of the trans-Saharan traders. ----- 127 ### c) The demand for ivory also led to the destruction of wildlife in western Sudan. Decline of the trans-Saharan trade. The trade reached its climax at around AD 8 [th] c. by 15 [th] c, the trade had declined due to the following reasons; a) Exhaustion of the salt and gold minefields as well as other like ivory. This discouraged traders from coming to West Africa. b) Increased political instability in the region due to so many wars of conquest created insecurity to the traders. c) The desert conditions e.g. harsh weather, dangerous insects, snakes and robbers discouraged many traders from the activity. d) Invasion of the region by the almorarids and the Tuaregs increased insecurity even more along the trade routes. Hence traders discontinued their involvement. e) Moroccan invasion of western Sudan in the 16 [th] century undermined the trade. f) The growth of the trans-Atlantic trade attracted some of the trans-Saharan traders thus reducing the volume of commodities that were sold. g) Colonization of west and North Africa by Europeans who took over the resources hence African activities were undermined. h) Invasion of North Africa by the ottoman Turks created insecurity along the caravan routes leading to decline of the trade. i) Anti-slave trade pressure from the British and eventual abolition of slave trade reduced trade profits. j) The establishment of commercial ports on the western African coast and the use of navigable rivers by the 16 [th] century AD rendered caravan trade unpopular as it was slow, cumbersome and risky. **International trade ** This is a type of trade that involves the exchange of goods between different countries in one continent or beyond the continent. **Examples of international trade include ** a) The Indian Ocean trade b) The trans-Atlantic trade. **The trans-Atlantic trade ** The trans-Atlantic trade involved Europe, Africa and the Americas thus earning it the name Triangular trade. It was also called the trans-Atlantic slave trade because it involved crossing the Atlantic and the main commodity was slaves.The trade was fueled by the technological innovations especially in Spain and Portugal which facilitated sea transport.The trade happened at a time when the Europeans were keen on expanding overseas (15 [th] and 16 [th] c AD) for the following reasons; a. They were searching for the sea route to India and Far East to get the spices and other commodities. The Turks had blocked the land route. b. The Europeans wanted to acquire gold and other precious items that believed to be in ----- 128 ### existence in Africa. c. The Europeans wanted to revenge against the Muslims who had colonized the Iberian Peninsula between 8 [th] c and 1491 AD. d. They were motivated by the desire to spread their civilization to the backward areas of the world. e. European countries such as Portugal and Spain also wanted to increase their geographical knowledge. **Origin of the trans-Atlantic trade ** The exact date when the first slave was captured and sold was 1441 AD. Young Portuguese sailor named Ahtam Goncalvez captured a man and a woman on the Western Sahara coast whom he presented to Prince Henry the Navigator, the Portuguese king, thus setting off a chain of reaction in the trade. The Portuguese built a fort on the Arguin Island on the coast of Mauritania in 1445 which was used as a base for buying slaves and Gold. The suppliers of the slaves at the fort were the Moors.The Portuguese ventured into the gold coast in search of gold in 1471. They built a fort at Elmina in 1482.The Portuguese then established trading contacts with the king of Congo who even accepted Christianity and Portuguese culture. (He baptized his son Afonso Bemba Nzinga) By 1500AD, the Portuguese established sugar plantations in the island of Sao Tome near modern Gambia. They relied on slave labour from Gambia. **Development and organization of trans-Atlantic slaves. ** The demand for labor in the western hemisphere stimulated a profitable three-legged trading pattern. European manufactured goods, namely cloth and metal wares, especially firearms, went to Africa where they were exchanged for slaves. The slaves were then shipped to the Caribbean and Americas from 1532 AD, where they were sold for cash or sometimes bartered for sugar or molasses. Then the ships returned to Europe loaded with American products.European ports of Bristol, Liverpool and Glasgow in Britain, Bordeaux and Nantes in France, and Amsterdam in Holland were crucial in this trade. The forts that developed in West Africa due to this trade were Elmina, Lagos, Whydah, Accra, Badagri, Sekondi, Winneba, Goree and Dakar. In the 16 [th] c, the Portuguese emerged as the main suppliers of slaves to Spanish colonies, having been granted special licenses, asientos, by the Spanish monarchy.African slaves were more preferred by Europeans because; a. They were available in large numbers. b. They were found to be cheaper to use than European labouerers and American Indians. c. They were thought to be immune to both European and tropical diseases. d. They appeared stronger and therefore suitable for manual labour. The Dutch were among the first European nations to compete the Portuguese in slave trade. ----- 129 ### For example in 1630, they wrestled the Elmina Fort from the Portuguese and captured Luanda in 1641. They were supplying slaves to new sugar plantations in the British Colony of Barbados and the French Caribbean colonies of Martinique of Guadalupe. The British and the French used merchant companies to conduct the slave trade having been motivated by the fortunes the Dutch were making. e.g, the Royal African Company was granted charter in 1672 and began taking colonies to the British colony in Jamaica. The original capture of slaves was almost always violent. As European demand grew, African chieftains organized raiding parties to seize individuals from neighboring societies. Others launched wars specifically for the purpose of capturing slaves **Factors that facilitated the acquisition of slaves** a. Existence of the institution of slavery in West Africa where the war captives, adulters, witches, the weak, debtors and murderers were enslaved b. Availability of firearms to precipitate warfare and capture of the conquered as slaves. c. Existence of well defined trade routes easily used by the slave merchants to access the interior slave markets. d. The great demand for slaves in the New World (Latin America) and North America. **Ways of obtaining slaves ** a) Selling of domestic slaves in exchange for goods like beads, guns, glass etc b) Selling of criminals, debtors and social misfits in society by the local chiefs to the Arab slave traders. c) Prisoners of war could be sold off. d) Porters were sometimes kidnapped, transported and sold off to the Arab traders. e) Raiding villages, this would begin at night with gun shots and people would scatter consequently leading to their capture. f) Through inter tribal wars many Africans become destitutes and these would be captured by the slave traders. g) Tax offenders were sold off by the African chiefs. h) They were also captured through ambushes during hunting, travelling and gardening. i) Slaves would be acquired from the main slave trade market in Zanzibar. j) Other Africans are also said to have gone voluntarily in anticipation of great wonders and benefits from the new world.Following capture, slaves were force- marched to the coast to holding pens where they were oiled and fed ready for inspection, before being loaded on ships. Prices of slaves depended on sex, age and size.The slaves were bartered for guns, alcohol, gun-powder, cloth and different metals. **Two trading systems were used: ** a) Factory system where political authorities allowed Europeans to establish permanent coastal baracoons or fortresses where slaves were kept in bulk as they awaited shipment. This method was only used by chartered companies as t was expensive. It was also only viable in Dahomey where slaves were in large numbers. ----- 130 ### b) Private trading. Sailing with vessels down the coast, and then stopping at different points to purchase slaves until there was enough cargo.The slaves were branded before loading them into the ships ready for the trans-Atlantic journey which was called the Middle Passage. The ships were filthy, hot, and crowded. By 1654, some 8,000-10,000 Africans each year were undergoing the Middle Passage. The moment of sailing is described as the most traumatic. Many Africans revolted during the middle passage in a bid to escape. For some jumping overboard was more preferable than their blood being turned into red wine, bones into gunpowder, skins, into black leather shoes and flesh -the Whitemans meat as they believed. **Factors which led to the development of the trans-Atlantic slave trade** a) Increased demand for slave labour by European countries led them to West Africa where they were available in large numbers. **Dangers of Middle Passage ** Suicide Disease The mortality rate averaged between 13 and 33 percent of the slaves and the crew. If the Atlantic were to dry up it would reveal a scattered pathway of human bones marking the various routes of the Middle Passage.. b) Greater preference for African slaves by the slave traders since they were thought to be more strong and resistant to tropical disease and could cope with stress easily. c) West Africa had well defined interior routes which enabled establishment of earlier strong trade links by the Europeans. There were also vast trade goods like gold, palm oil and ivory. This stimulated the development of trans-Atlantic trade. d) African chiefs had developed a taste for European goods like cloths, firearms and glass enabling exchange for slaves, gold ivory and palm oil. There was also existence of the institution of slavery in West African communities. e) The introduction of firearms facilitated the capture of slaves and hence their increased supply. f) The exploitation of minerals and establishment of plantations in the Americas pushed demand for slaves to higher levels hence trade with the region expanded. g) The increased demand for raw materials to feed the growing industries in Europe led to increased demand for slaves in cotton farms in the Americas. h) The rivalry between the Portuguese and the Spaniards and with the Britons over the control of slave trade pushed the trade to a higher new level. i) The fact the trade was very lucrative led to its further expansion. j) Improved technology which meant ability to construct greater capacity ships. Th is enhanced transportation of more slaves from West Africa and thus development of the trade . ----- 131 ### **Impact of trans-Atlantic trade on the people of West Africa ** a) It caused immense suffering to many people. b) It led to forced emigration of about 10 million people to the Americas between 1500 and 1888. c) Many slaves died between capture and arrival to their destinations. d) Depopulation occurred in areas where slaves were taken from. This led to underdevelopment since the young and productive people were taken away. e) African traditional industries were destroyed by the sale of cheap manufactured goods from Europe. f) There was increased conflict between communities especially where the gun was used. This led to destruction of property during the inter-community wars. g) Many African communities were weakened and were left unprepared for the scramble and partition of Africa which soon followed. h) It led to rise and growth of states e.g. Asante, Dahomey. i) It led to founding of Liberia and Sierra Leone as settlements for slaves who were freed. j) It led to changes to social roles; women became the heads of their families due to the enslavement of men. k) Some African cultures spread to the Americas e.g Jazz Music and samba dancing styles of Brazil and even witchcraft. l) The trade led to the rise of the mullato population. E.g in Senegal, where they are mainly found in Goree and Dakar, as a result of the intermingling between the European traders and the African women. m) It contributed to the decline of the trans-Saharan trade and the colonization of West Africa. **Economic impacts of slave trade** a) It led to introduction of new (manufactured) goods in West Africa which undermined many indigenous technologies like smithing and medicine. b) Africa was depleted of her vital manpower that was greatly needed in agriculture and defence. This led to economic retardation. c) Destruction of African property during the slave raids. d) Led to the eventual decline of the Trans Atlantic trade at its abolition. e) Stimulated development of ports in West Africa and in Europe. f) African leaders accumulated a lot of wealth e.g Dahomey, jaja, Asantehene. g) It led to development of European economies. A number of large cities grew along the coastal ports. For example Glasgow, Bordeaux Liverpool and Nantes. h) Growth of industrialization in Europe as the slave labour ensured constant flow of raw materials into the industries. i) Some of the slave dealers accumulated enormous wealth. For example, the merchants like Barclays Brothers and sailing companies like Lloyds. ----- 132 ### j) The trade led to the expansion of plantation farming in USA (cotton and sugar plantations) which relied on slave labour. **Decline of the trans-Atlantic slave trade** In 1807, the British government made a decision to abolish slave trade. Factors that led to the abolition of slave trade; a) Rise of humanitarians in Europe such as Christians and scholars condemned it on moral grounds. The missionaries wanted it to be stopped because they wanted good conditions for the spread of Christianity. The formation of the humanitarian movements in Engl and aimed at stopping all kinds of cruelty including slave trade, flogging of soldiers and child labour. b) Industrialization in Britain was one of the main forces behind the abolition .E.g. Britain industrialists urged its abolition because they wanted Afri cans to be left in Africa so that Africa can be a source of raw materials for their industries, market for European manufactured goods and a place for new investment of surplus capital. c) Formation of Anti-slavery movement and the abolitionist movement in 1787. Its chairman was Granville Sharp and others like Thomas Clarkson, William Wilberforce who gathered facts and stories about the brutality of slave trade and slavery to arouse public opinion in Britain. d) The attainment of independence by USA in 1776 left Britain in a dilemma since she had no colonies where she would take the slaves to work. e) The French revolution of 1789 and the American revolution of 1776 emphasized liberty, equality and fraternity (brotherhood) of all human beings. As a result, people began to question whether anyone had a right to deprive fellow man of his liberty when he had done wrong. f) The British desire to protect their national interests, British planters wanted slave trade stopped to avoid competition with other European planters .This is because other planters were producing cheaper sugar, British sugar accumulated hence the need to stop over production. g) The closure of the American slave market after the defeat of the South American states in the American civil war of 1865 left the slave dealers with no market for their slaves. h) The rise of leading London economists with new ideas e.g. Prof. Adam Smith(challenged the economic arguments which were the basis of slave trade when he argued convincingly that hired labour is cheaper and more productive than slave labour, Rousseau spread the idea of personal liberty and equality of all men. i) Influential abolitionists like William Wilberforce (a British member of parliament) urged the British government to legislate against the slave trade in her colonies. They in turn influenced public opinion against slave trade. ----- 133 ### j) The ship owners stopped transporting slaves from Africa and began transporting raw materials directly from Africa and America to Europe, which led to a decline in slave **TRANSPORT ** **Definition of Transport ** Transport is the movement of people and from one place to another.Transportation is usually classified by the medium in which the movement occurs. For example, land, air and water transport.Transport can be categorized into traditional and modern means. a) Traditional means of transport. The means of transport at this category were land and water evolved. **Land transport** People move on land either by walking or by using other human powered transport. People also use domestic animals as a means of transportation **Human transport** Human powered transportation included carrying goods on their backs, heads and shoulders. Africans were used as porters during the slave trade. Human porterage still goes on in the modern society. Limitation of human porterage Human porterage was cumbersome, slow and tiresome. Humans Carry limited amount of goods at particular time. It is not convenient over long distances. **Animal transport** Early human beings used the domesticated animals to carry loads on their backs or pull carts. Such animals are referred to as pack animals.In 500 AD a paddled collar was devised that rested on the animals shoulders. In 200 AD saddles were introduced in Egypt. Horse shoes were introduced in 700 AD ***Donkey\\Ass*** The first animals to be used as pack animals; they were used in Egypt as early as 3400bc to carry weight upto 80kg. They were commonly used in the trade between Nubia and South Sudan. In Ukambani today, donkeys are used to fetch water. ***Oxen*** Referred to as draught animals used for ploughing and pulling carts and also transportation of goods and people. ***Horses*** They were first rode but were later trained to pull wagons, chariots and passenger coaches. In the Roman Empire, they carried soldiers during war. (Soldiers on horseback are referred to as cavalry. **Disadvantages of horses** a) It is highly susceptible to diseases. b) It cannot survive in tsetse fly infected areas. ----- 134 ### c) The weight limit of the load it can carry is 120kg d) They are not suitable in arid and semi-arid areas because they need a lot of water. NB; - horses are mainly reared by the rich as a symbol of high social status. Mules.A crossbreed of a horse and a donkey, they are sterile and carry loads upto 110kg.they are mostly used in mountainous areas in central and southern Europe and in Mexico. **Camels ** It is referred to as the ship of the desert. What makes a camel ideal in desert transport? a) It has a unique ability to survive for long without food and water. b) They have an incredible water storage capacity, they do not sweat lose much moisture. c) They have broad padded, two toed feet ideal for walking on desert sand. d) The nostrils have flaps which keep away sand during sandstorms. e) Its fur is thick enough to protect it from the sweltering desert heat by day and ext reme cold conditions at night. f) The hump contains a lot of fat which the camel uses when it goes without eating Camels were commonly used during the trans-Saharan trade. They are in use in Kenya today among the Galla and Somali carrying weight upto 200kg. Llamas and alpaca. Members of the camel family found in central and south America. They carry load upto 40 kg. **Elephants ** They are used in Asia to carry people and heavy loads upto 250kg. In India, they were used to transport people and goods during war in 2500BC. In Africa they were used in warfare in 270BC. Water Buffalo . A member of the cattle family and the only type of buffalo that has been domesticated. The cape buffalo of Africa and the Pygmy buffalo of Philippines have not been domesticated. It isused to pull ploughs and do other heavy work in India and south East Asia. **Reindeer ** A long-horned deer family breed used in the cold parts of Canada, Sweden and Norway for riding and transportation. It also provides milk, meat, hides and horns. ***Dogs*** Dog types like Bouriers were used to pull small carts and sledges, especially in the Arctic thus making transportation of gods and people easy. Dogs are also used in guiding blind people in sports and as pets at home. ----- 135 ### **Advantages of animal transport** a) Pack animals can be used in largely inaccessible areas. The Llama, for example is used in the mountainous areas with narrow and meandering paths and steep cliffs. The camel is well adapted for deserts. b) Animals are cheap to maintain. They attract very little maintenance costs, since only feeding costs are incurred. c) Pack animals are safe as accidents are rare probably because they do not speed.. d) Animals help to maintain the ecological balance since they do not interfere with the environment. e) Pack animals are capable of sensing danger. For example, horses and dogs can sniff out an enemy from a distance. This enhances security as dangerous confrontations with an enemy can easily be avoided. **Disadvantages of animal transport** a) Animal transport is slow and tedious. The animals need to feed and drink along the way. b) Pack animals may be attacked by wild animals, disease- causing insects such as tsetse- flies and disease. a. Their movement is limited to the day only and cannot travel at night. b. They can only carry small loads as compared to vehicles. c. Some pack animals such as donkey are stubborn when tired and heavily loaded. The camel is only suited for the desert. d. Pack animals use is limited to short distances as they fatigue when they travel for long. **The wheel ** The wheel was invented in sumeria at about 3000bc. By 2500BC, they had invented the spoked wheel used on horse drawn chariots. The chariot was used in Mesopotamia at around 2000BC and later spread to Egypt, Persia, Rome, china, Africa and Europe. The cart or wagon pulled by humans or animals was the first wheeled vehicle. The wheeled wagons and carts created the need for roads Today many types of wheels are in use. For example, the steering wheel for cars, turbines for jet engines and gyroscopes used in the automobile pilot technology. Ways in which invention of the wheel impacted on road transport a) More roads were constructed to use wheel vehicles for transport b) Road transport became faster and efficient c) Bigger loads could be carried hence was cost effective profitable d) It made the use of motor engine driven vehicles possible e) It enabled man to move over long distance to disseminated ideas and interact. **Water transport ** Water transport has progressed from early rafts and canoes to the modern large passenger and freight ships. ----- 136 ### A raft is a simple floating structure, usually made by tying together floating material like animal skin, papyrus stalks or logs. The earliest people to make rafts were the Australians. They made rafts called catamaran by tying logs together. Long poles were then used to drive the raft.Rafts however sank easily and required a lot of manpower upstream. A canoe was a narrow boat that was propelled by one or more paddles. The oldest canoe was made by stripping the bark from trees (bark canoes). Later a new canoe was made from a hollow on a log (dug-out canoe).In Kenya, canoes are used for transporting people and goods and for fishing in inland lakes and rivers. **Oar-driven boats ** Boats are small vessels for travelling on water and are powered by oars, sails or motor. The Egyptians pioneered in the building of boats that used oars (a short wooden pole with a flat end) instead of paddles in 3000BC. The Phoenicians, Greeks and the Romans developed oardriven trading vessels and warships. **Sailing ships. ** Humankind learned that the wind could move a boat more easily than human beings if the ship had a piece of cloth fixed on poles (sail). The Egyptians used the sailing ships by 3000BC on the Mediterranean and Red seas. The Greeks made sailing ships known as galleys which were used for trade and war. They used war galley known as triremes to defeat the Persians and Phoenicians.Sailing ships were depending on monsoon winds discovered by Hippalus. The Arabs and Persians relied on the monsoon winds to reach the east African coast.The Portuguese invented a three-masted ship called a caravel as the one used by Christopher Columbus and other explorers to sail to America and the Far East. The Carrack used by Vasco da Gama was five-masted to sail to east Africa. Ferdinand Magellan became the first person to sail around the world using a Sailing ship Fast sailing ships called clippers were made in 1840s in America. It was a long and narrow ship with sharp bows and almost straight sides.However, sailing ships could not sail on windy days and seasons. Some communities however still use sailing ships upto today for sports, fishing and leisure.By the 12 [th] c AD, the magnetic compass was being used in navigation aid **Factors that led to the development of various forms of transport ** a) Technological development during the scientific age which enabled man to invent machines which could be used to manufacture various parts of cars, rails, airplanes, ships and motor boats. b) Expansion of geographical knowledge encouraged the development of transport so as to enable man to search new places faster and more safely. c) Introduction of specialization as a means of production which necessitated exchange o goods and services which could only be made possible through development of transport and communication. ----- 137 ### d) Population increase hence demands for more food and goods hence the need for essential transport system. e) In order to satisfy the desires of man there was need to develop a system of transport that would enable man to get the goods and services he needed so much. **Modern means of transport** **Road transport** The invention of the wheel stimulated the construction of roads. The Roman soldiers built hard and straight roads all over Europe and North Africa by around 300 BC. The roads were built by digging a trench, 1.5metres deep which then would be packed with heavy stones or rocks. Rough and fine concrete was added to the foundation, then layers of gravel, chalk and cement. The road surface was slightly convex with deep trenches on the sides. Roman roads declined with the fall of the Roman Empire.Attempts to built better roads in Europe in the 18 [th] c were made by George Wade (1673- 1748) built 400km of roads and John Metcalfe (17171-1810) built 290km of roads.However modern road construction is attributed to John McAdam (1756-1836). McAdam laid three layers of small broken stones packed tightly together. He then placed a layer of gravel which was bound together by the weight of a vehicle. These roads were called the flexible road or macadamized road. These roads were straight and had a smooth surface. They were widelyused all over the world. They have curved surfaces and had a Good drainage system. They are cheap and durable.The roads were later improved by adding tar to produce a water proof surface called tarmac. By 1820, Britain had built 200,000km of road. **Advantages of macadamized roads** a) They were durable with three layers of small broken stores b) They were cheap to construct using stones as the basic material for construction c) They had a smooth motoring surface since the gravel layer was bound together by the weight of vehicles d) They were straight hence reduced occurrence of accidents e) They were easily drained due to their smooth surface and being raised. **The bicycle ** In 1790, a Frenchman, de Divrac made the first bicycle which was pushed with the feet thus called a walkalong. A german named Baron Karl Drais invented a walkalong called draisine which had a steering bar connected to the front wheel.In 1860, Ernes Michaux, a French locksmith, invented a bicycle with two wheels and pedals attached to the front wheel.In 1866, Piere Allement a Frenchman, was given the first patent on a bicycle, boneshaker. It had iron wheels fixed to wooden spokes. In 1873, a bicycle named a high- wheeler was introduced in England. The firs bicycle in England was made by Kirk Patrick Macmillan of Scotland.James Starley is referred to as the father of the cycle industry. In 1870, he invented the tension spoked wheel in which the rim and the hub were connected by wire spokes.John Dunlop invented the tyre filled with compressed air ----- 138 ### in 1888 which replaced the iron tyres and solid rubber tyres.In 1893, a bicycle with a diamond shaped frame with a roller-chain-drive and a compressed air wheel was invented.The bicycle is today used all over the world not only for transport, but also for sporting and leisure activities. The advantage of a bicycle is that it easily used on narrow paths and on a fairly level surface. It is also cheap and convenient. **Motor vehicles** These are self-propelled power-driven land transportation devices used to transport people or goods, especially on land. The device converts fuel into energy to provide the power for the vehicle to move.The first attempt to power drive devices was the suggestion by a Swiss clergyman J.H Genevoisin 1760 that wind springs be used to move wheels on roads.However the making of an engine that could drive a vehicle is attributed to a French engineer, Nicholas Joseph Cugnot (1725- 1804). He built a three wheeled steam-driven vehicle in 1769, though he abandoned his experiment prematurely. In 1883, a German, Gottlieb Daimler (1834-1900) produced a high speed petrol engine which he fitted on a wooden cycle in 1885. Karl Benz (1844-1929) fitted the same engine on a w tricycle in the same year.In 1886, Daimler made the first petrol driven car with four wheels. Benz built the first four wheeled Benz car in 1893. In the same year, an American, Charles Duryea (1862-1938) built the first gasoline powered automobile. The tyres made by Dunlop were fitted on these cars to make them more comfortable.The first car in the motor industry, Panhard-Hevassor, was made by a French company which had bought the rights to use Daimlers engine.In 1903 in USA Henry Ford founded the Ford Motor Company in Detroit leading to mass production of cars in the world. For example the model TFord was developed in 1909.Students read more on the motor vehicle inventions. **Impact of road transport ** a) Roads have promoted trade within and between countries since goods are transported by road to various markets. This case is true in east Africa. b) Road transport has stimulated industrial development as raw materials to factories and manufactured goods to the market are easily transported. c) Development of towns and urban centres along roads has been as a result of improved road transport. d) Many countries earn a lot of foreign exchange from the sale of motor vehicles. For example Japan, Germany and USA. e) Employment opportunities are created as many people work in the motor vehicle industry while others are employed to construct and maintain roads. **Advantages of road transport ** a) Since it is the commonest mode of transport, it reduces the cost of movement of goods and people as well as promoting social interaction. b) It is cheaper compared to other forms of transport. Roads are easier to construct and maintain when compared to railway transport. ----- 139 ### c) It is faster when compared to water and railway transport unless in the case of electric trains. d) Roads are flexible and link with other forms of transport such as water, railway and **Disadvantages of road transport ** a) The high number of accidents on roads leads to loss of lives. b) Road transport is responsible for pollution which causes environmental degradation. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Cheloti 2012-2013 20 c) Due to an increased number of vehicles on roads, traffic congestion is a major concern in most urban cities and towns. d) Roads may sometimes inconvenience the users when they become impassable. e) The quantity of goods carried is limited as roads cannot carry bulky goods compared to the railway. f) The use of roads is limited to specific areas. It cannot go beyond land e.g across the sea or lake. g) Construction of all-weather roads is expensive. Developing countries find themselves constrained by limited resources that are needed to construct all-weather roads. **Rail transport** Railway lines are paths of parallel metal rails that allow a wheeled vehicle to move easily by reducing friction. Initially, they were used in 1800s to guide horse drawn wagons. Later the steam engine replaced horses as the means of transport.The development of modern railway was a gradual process that started in Britain and Germany with the use of wooden rails.A British engineer, Richard Trevithick (1771-1833) designed a steam engine that was small enough to be put on a truck. This he fitted on a railway locomotive which he had bought in 1804 to pull a cargo and passenger train in south Wales. Fenton, Murray and Wood of Leeds built the John Blenkinsopp locomotive in 1812. William Hedley built the puffing Billy in 1813.George Stephenson (1781-1845) a coal miner in Newcastle, England invented a locomotive engine called the Blucher which pulled eight laden wagons in 1814. He also built the worlds first public railway between Stockton and Darlington near Durham in 1825. In 1829, Stephenson and his son, Robert, built the most improved engine, the rocket, which had a speed of 48 km per hour. In 1830, he built the Northumbrian and the planet.In 1825, in the United States, Colonel John Stevens built a tiny experimental locomotive. In 1929, a major railway was built by the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company to serve a coal mine.Germany and Belgium had railroads by 1835, Russia by 1837, Spain by 1848 and Sweden by 1856.In 1892, a Germany Rudolf Diesel designed a heavy oil-driven-engine which replaced the steam engine. It was cheaper and efficient.The first diesel railcar was used in 1913 in Sweden. Later diesel engines were replaced with electric engines which was an invention of the Siemens Brothers and John Hopkinson in Britain in 1883. The electric train from Paris to Lyon covers a distance of 212 km in one hour.Railway transport has remained a major ----- 140 ### mode of passenger travel. In Europe and Japan, major cities are connected by high speed passenger trains such as the French TGV (Train a Grange Vitesse) and the Japanese Shinkansen trains travelling at a speed of 300km/h. **Results of railway transport. ** a) It has promoted the movement of people thus leading to increased social and cultural interaction. People can migrate easily in Europe thanks to the faster electric trains. b) It has promoted trade as goods, light, heavy or bulky, are transported efficiently to the markets. It also supplements the use of other forms of transport. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Cheloti 2012-2013 21 c) It has stimulated industrial development since in dustrial products and raw materials can now be transported faster and in large quantities. d) Railway transport has stimulated the growth of urban centers. In Kenya for example, urban centres like Nairobi, Kisumu, Mombasa and voi either developed along the railway line or at the terminus. e) It has facilitated the spread of religious faiths and political ideas. This was the case in Kenya during the period of missionary work and colonization. In a way railway transport therefore facilitated European occupation of overseas colonies. f) There has been a significant improvement in agriculture since agricultural goods are transported more easily and faster using the railway. g) It has been a source of employment for many people I maintenance, engine driving etc. h) It has facilitated the exploitation of natural resources like mining, fisheries and forestry. The raw materials from these resources are transported faster using the railway. i) Railway transport has stimulated economic growth since it is a source of revenue for many governments. **Disadvantages of railway transport ** a) It is expensive to construct. The wagons are also expensive to buy and maintain. b) Railway transport lacks in flexibility. It can only pass through certain landscapes. c) Smoke emitted from the trains lead to environmental pollution. d) Railway accidents might be rare but when they happen, they are fatal. This was the case in Kenya in 1998 when 200 people lost their lives. e) Railway transport is not self sufficient. T has to be supplemented with road transport. **Water transport** **Canal vessels** A canal is an artificial river that is used to transport people and goods. It may be built to link a ricer and a lake, sea or a sea with a sea. Apart from transportation, their water may be used in irrigation like in the case of River Nile.Canals have been used for centuries for transportation. The earliest canal was built by the Europeans nearly 4000 years ago to link the river Nile and the Red sea.The longest canal, the Grand Canal in china is bout 1900km long and it links the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers.Canal building in Europe was ----- 141 ### pioneered by the Romans who built them for transportation, irrigation and drainage. The Dutch, British and the French also constructed elaborate canals.Canal building in the US began in 1817 and ended in 1825 with the construction of the Erie Canal which is 845 km long connecting Hudson River with Lake Erie. It is now known as the New York State Barge. Up to 1840, 4,800 km of canals had been constructed in USA.Another type of canals is the ship canals, for example the Suez Canal, Panama Canal and Kiel Canal, which are deeper. The Suez Canal in Egypt is 195 km long and links the Mediterranean Sea with the red sea. It was constructed between 1859 and 1869 by a French company under. Ferdinand Lesseps. The Kiel Canal links the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. The Panama Canal was built by the USA Government between 1904 and 1914 linking the pacific and Atlantic oceans. It is the most important canal as it shortened the long and dangerous trip around the southern tip of south Africa. The St. Lawrence Seaway is the longest and most important inland waterway system in North America. It is 3,800 km long and was completed in 1855 in USA and 1895 in Canada. **Steamships** Steamships were made after the invention of the steam driven engine. The first attempt to make a steamship was made by Dr. Denis Papin of France when he fitted a steam engine to a boat and sailed along river Fulda in Hanover. In 1736, Jonathan Holls of Gloucestershire patented a steam tugboat but it was nev er tried.In 1774, Comte J B dAuxiron of France experimented with a steamboat but also failed like Papin as it broke down.In 1775, C Perier became the first person to move a small boat powered by steam engine o river Seine in Paris.The first successful steamboat was built and tried out in1783 by a Frenchman called Marquis de Jouffrey on River Saone near Lyons in France. In America, John Fitch built a steamboat in 1787. It was used on river Delaware between Philadelphia and Trenton. In 1809, William Symington and Miller Pat succeeded in constructing a wooden steamship that was used on the Forh-Clyde Canal in southern Scotland.In 1807, in America, Robert Fulton had invented a double paddle-wheeled steamboat known as Clermont which began operating on the Hudson River. In1807, the phoenix became the first steamship that made regular voyage from Philadelphia to New York.In 1819, the savannah became the first ship equipped with a steam engine to cross the Atlantic Ocean.In 1853, the peninsular and oriental Line built the iron-screw steamer, Himalaya, the biggest vessel as at that time.John Elder invented a compound engine with two cylinders which reduced fuel consumption in steamships. In 1838, Sirius sailed from London to New York, the Great Western, without using sails crossed the Atlantic in 15 days from Bristol.In 1839, the Archimedes and the Robert F Stockton were built using Smiths and Ericcsons patent.The most important ship to cross the Atlantic was the Great Britain built by the Islamabad Kingdom of Brunei in 1843. The first USA trans-Atlantic steamers were the Herman and Washington.The first merchant ship to be all-welded without any rivets in its hull was the MS Fullagar in 1920. ----- 142 ### **Importance of the discovery and use of the steamship** a) Man could no longer depend on nature wind for power. This made travel by sea easier and more comfortable. b) It led to expansion of international trade since transportation became cheap. c) Bigger volumes and varieties of goods could be carried including those that required special handling like petrol. d) It formed the basis for colonization as colonizers could move to other continents easily. e) It increased international migrations and spread of races, cultures, diseases, intermarriages, languages and religion f) It led to greater expansion of geographical knowledge. It gave access to countries bordered by sea. g) It led to expansion of world economies, industries, trade and commerce. h) Spread of plants and animals internationally. **Motor- Driven ships** With the invention of the internal combustion engine, oil replaced coal. The Caspian Steamer Wanal was built in 1903 was the first sizeable ship with an internal combustion engine.In the 20 [th] c, the use of atomic energy (nuclear power) was developed. The first ship to use atomic power was the Nautilus in 1956. In 1961, an American merchant ship, MV Savannah, propelled by nuclear power was launched.There are two types of ships based on the service offered; a) The Liners operate regular scheduled services on defined trade routes charging advertised rates. b) The Tramp ships carry any suitable cargo between any two points based on a negotiated contract. They have no regular route or timetable. **Modern passenger Liners** The cruise ship, the most important passenger liner, is a specially designed vessel providing luxurious surroundings and entertainment to passengers. It is about 270 m and carries 2000 passengers. New passenger Liners were developed after World War II for example the American United States of 1952 and the British Queen Elizabeth 2 of 1969. The liners were overtaken by the development of the aeroplane and airline transport and only a few remain today. **Freight Vessels ** These are Special Ocean going ships designed for carrying large amounts of cargo. Containerships transport large metal containers that have been pre-loaded with cargo. Some container ships carry over 6,800 containers. **Military Vessels ** In 1859, the French launched Gloire, the first iron-plated ship. During the American civil war (1861-1865), two iron-plated ships were used. ----- 143 ### In world war II, battleships, Aircraft carriers (can carry 85 aircrafts), cruisers, destroyers, destroyer escorts(frigates), minesweepers, torpedo boats, landing craft and other support vessels were developed. **Hydrofoils and hovercraft ** These are specialized water vessels (a hydrofoil has small wing-like surfaces called foils attached to the bottom of its hull that lifts the hull out of water when the hydrofoil accelerates. A hovercraft is lifted entirely off the water surface by a cushion of air and are propelled by giant air propellers or by water jets) **Ferries ** These are vessels used to transport people, animals and vehicles over water in places where bridges would be inconvenient or impossible to build. **Motorboats and personal craft ** These are small boats that are used for recreational purposes with either out boat motors or in boat motors. **Pipeline transport ** This is a form of transport used to move liquids, gases or solid liquid mixtures over long distances. The most common liquid that is transported by pipeline in many countries is water. Others are oil and gas. Pipelines are also used to transport solids suspended in liquids such as coal slurry which consists of powdered coal suspended in water. **Air Transport ** This is the fastest form of transport over long distances and continents. Different types of Aircraft exist. **Aeroplane** An airplane is an aircraft heavier than air that uses wings to obtain lift in order to fly thus transporting people, mail and cargo from place to place. They are also use in warfare. The development of an aeroplane started in 1783 when a successful manned flight was made in France by two brothers, Jacques and Joseph Montgolfier using a hot air balloon. Sir George Cayley, an English scholar and inventor, built model Gliders that could sail in the air in the 19 [th] c. Later, Pilcher added wheels to the gliders in order for them to be towed into the air. By 1850, power driven planes were built. An English engineer, John String built and designed power-driven planes. In December 1903, An American astronomer, Samuel Langleys almost won the honour of perfecting the power driven airplanes, by making a full size airplane called the aerodrome. The plane unfortunately crashed in Potomac River before being launched. On 17 [th] December 1903, two weeks after Langleys failure, the Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur Wright, produced the first manned power driven aeroplane at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina USA. Their machine was a wooden glider fitted with a petrol engine and two propellers. In 1906, a Brazilian- born aviation pioneer made the first officially observed European flight in a powered bi- plane.In 1909, Louis Bleriot of France became the first person to fly a plane across the English Channel in 35.5 minutes. ----- 144 ### In 1915, the Germans used the first mono-plane during the First World War. In 1919, John N. Alcock and Arthur W Brown flew non-stop across the Atlantic from New Foundland to Ireland.Later improvements in the plane were replacement of wood and cloth with aluminum and stainless steel, invention of a retractable gear that improved streamlining in planesBy 1920, plane speed had gone up to 303 km /h. in 1940; it was 755 km/h.The best known aviator in 1920s was Charles Linburgh who accompanied a non-stop flight from New York to Paris in 1927 in his single monoplane called the spirit of Saint Louis in 33 hours.In 1920, the first scheduled passenger service was made between Amsterdam and England by KLM Dutch Airlines.In 1930, the first pressurized plane was launched. The most popular passenger plane at that time was the DC-3 built by Douglas Aircraft Company. It had a capacity of 30 people and moved at a speed of 320 km. **The jet engine ** The jet engine was invented by German engineers in 1939.the first jet powered airplane was the german Heinkel HE -178. The first practical jet fighter was the Lockheed P-8 developed in 1944.During the post war period, the jet engines were put to commercial use.. For example, the Boeing 707 flight which was launched in 1958 in USA. The Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet which entered the market in 1970 can carry 375 passengers, 20 tonnes of freight and move at a speed of 900 km/h.The Supersonic Loans Port (SST) is designed to fly at speeds of over 1180 km/h. the Russian TU-144 and the French British Concorde are both SSTs and entered passenger market in 1972. **Helicopters ** It is a type of airplane which obtains its lift from a set of rotor blades rather than fixed wings. The first successful helicopter was made in 1907 when a French helicopter left the ground for a few seconds.Germany made the first practical helicopter in 1936 while the United States Army unveiled its wartime helicopter in 1942. **Uses of helicopters ** **Lighter- than-air-vehicles ** These include balloons relying on hot air and lighter than air gases like helium and hydrogen for lift.Airships that combine lighter than air gas bags with propellers navigation were initially used for passenger traffic but their usage declined due to several fatal accidents. For example the disaster that befell the German airship, Hindenburg, in New Jersey in 1937. **The rocket engine** Rocket engines use fuel. They carry chemicals which enable them to burn their fuel without air supply. The first rocket engine to be used was by a German manufacturer, Fritz von Opel in 1930. An American, R H Goddard also developed a modern rocket in Massachusetts in the USA. Factors which encouraged the development of air transport. a) The effect of the First World War- it increased demand of war planes-jet fighters and fighter planes flying over 600kph were manufactured. ----- 145 ### b) The arms race and the cold war which also made many countries to acquire many planes.-fear, jealousy and competition based on ideological differences. c) Desire for comfort among passengers and the need to transport perishables quickly. d) Expansion of international trade and desire for more wealth. e) Colonization and international migrations. f) The expansion of the tourist industry. g) Vast improvement in science and technology and growth of industries. **Results of air transport ** 1) Air transport is a major global employer. The air transport industry directly generates 5.5 million jobs globally and contributes USD 408 billion to global GDP. It directly contributed USD 1,830 billion to world GDP in 2007 and generated 79 million direct jobs globally 2.8% of total employment. 2) Air transport is an important facilitator of international trade, thereby promoting economic growth and development. Forecasts suggest that the global economy will become even more dependent on trade over the next decade. World trade is expected to nearly double, rising at more than twice the rate of global GDP growth, with China, India and emerging markets leading the way. 3) Air transport stimulates Tourism which makes a major contribution to the global economy.The air transport industry plays a major role in supporting tourism. Over 40% of international tourists now travel by air, up from 35% in 1990. At the same time, the WTTC estimates that foreign visitors account for just fewer than 25% of overall tourism spending around the world. This includes spending by business travelers, as well as those on leisure trips or visiting friends and relatives. 4) Air transport is a significant tax payer. Unlike other transport modes, the air transport industry directly pays for its own infrastructure costs. The user charges collected by airport operators pay both for the day-to-day services they provide to airlines and their customers, and also for the massive investment in runways, terminals and other infrastructure required for a modern, efficient air transport service. In addition, companies in the air transport industry make significant tax payments to national treasuries. 5) Air transport expands the range of consumer choices and opportunities to visit other countries and to experience new cultures. 6) Air transport delivers humanitarian aid. Air services play an essential role in humanitarian assistance to countries facing natural disasters, famine and war through cargo deliveries, refugee transfers or the evacuation of people trapped by natural disasters. They are particularly important in situations where access is a problem for example, air drops are among the first response of aid agencies to stem a humanitarian crisis. 7) Air transport also plays a vital role in the rapid delivery of Medical supplies and organs for transplantation worldwide. ----- 146 ### 8) Air transport provides access to remote areas. Air transport provides access to remote areas where other transport modes are limited. Many essential services, such as food deliveries, hospitals, education and post, would not be available for people in such locations without air services. And residents would be isolated from family, friends and business contacts. 9) Air transport has improved security as soldiers can be flown to troubled areas. Aeroplanes are also used in espionage 10) Air transport has led to improvement f space exploration. Satellites are used to study objects in space such as stars and planets. 11) Air transport has promoted international cooperation and understanding. People from different countries can exchange ideas.. 12) It has provides the fastest means of transport for passengers and goods thus increasing cultural and social exchange. 13) Aeroplanes are used to break hail in order to cause rain. 14) Plans and other aircraft have added to variety to sporting and entertainment. E.g the staging of fighter plane shows in public holiday celebration. 15) Aircraft has revolutionized warfare especially during the Second World War when countries began using panes in warfare. 16) International terrorism has been facilitated in the recent past by aeroplanes. Incidents of planes being hijacked are becoming common in the world today. 17) Air transport contributes to environmental pollution due to waste discharged by the burning fuel. Jets cause noise pollution. 18) Air transport has enhanced agriculture as planes are used to spray and dust insecticides on crops in the case of large scale farming. They are also used in quick delivery of perishable farm produce from horticultural farms. 19) Planes assist in fire fighting, inspecting fence lines and power cables and border patrol. 20) Aeroplanes are used in making aerial survey in cartography thus improving map making. 21) Air transport enhances wildlife management and conservation. Counting of animals by wildlife officers is one used planes. 22) In meteorology, air transport has enhanced weather survey. 23) Air transport sometimes leads to deaths of many people when fatal accidents occur. For example, the mid-air blow-up of the trans World Airline plane over the Atlantic ocean in July 1996, the 5 [th] may 2007 crashing of a Nairobi bound KQ 507 moments after leaving Duala international Airport in Cameroon killing 114 passengers. **Space exploration ** This is the attempt by scientists to reach the heavenly bodies namely the stars and moon to learn more about them and their importance to man as a whole. ----- 147 ### Space age refers to the period in which the exploration of space became possible. It began with the launch of the first artificial satellite in October 1957 by the soviet union - Sputnik.The first human to go to space was a Russian Major Yuri Gagarin using Vostok I in April 1961. Inthe same year an American, John Glenn also went to space.Neil Armstrong, an American Became the first man to land on the moon in July 1969 in his space craft, Apollo II. He was accompanied by Edwin E Aldrin Jr and Michael Collins. Many other have toured the moon since then.Later on a space shuttle was built. The first space shuttle, Columbia, launched in 1981, carried two American astronauts, John W. Young and Robert L Crpens. In 1983, the space shuttle, challenger released a satellite into space. One of the crew members, Sally K Ride became the first woman astronaut to go to space.In 1984, Kathryn D Sullivan became the first American woman to walk in space .By 1988, there were 300 operating satellites in space while 1200 were not functioning. **Challenges facing space exploration** a) Deadly hazards like cosmetics and solar radiation and micro meteorites dangerous to spacecraft. b) Hostile natural environment which is unsuitable for human life making it very expensive. c) Extreme temperatures and light intensities. Extreme darkness and brightness. Such difficulties have been overcome through development of new tools and techniques for space navigation. **Importance of space exploration to man ** a) Spacecrafts continue to provide information about conditions in space in particular about the weather. b) Reports derived from weather satellite can act as warning systems about impending storm. c) It helps us to gain more knowledge about our planet earth. e.g. a scientific satellite known as Vanguard 1 sent back pictures, which showed that the earth was slightly pear- shaped. d) Communication satellites like the Telstra and Relay have made it possible to send television programmes and telephone calls over much longer distances. e) In 1965, the US achieved another momentous feat in space communication. The mariner4 in a deep space probe sent back pictures of mars that were taken as it passed the planet. f) Some space exploration offers possibilities without limit. Planets themselves may have metals and other resources that men on earth need. g) Information about outer space may make it possible to make rain and make long- range weather forecast more accurately than before. h) Some scientists are optimistic that space research might make it possible for human beings to settle on some planets; so far, we are not very definite about this. ----- 148 ### i) Humankind can benefit from medicine prepared under ideal conditions on the planet namely dust free and germ free medicine. j) Space exploration enhances technological development. k) It facilitates own understanding of the universe. l) It leads to improved manufacture of aircrafts, telescope and related machines. m) Contributed to development of advanced air force weapons. **Advances in transportation ** Africas first high speed train system, the Gautrain, was officially lanced in Johannesburg on 8 [th] June 2010 to connect the cities of Johannesburg and Pretoria with a 160 km/h rail service. **Effects of modern forms of transport** a) It has made local and international trade more efficient. Trade in perishable goods such as flowers and vegetables have been expanded thanks to air transport. b) Population migration and settlement all over the world has been encouraged using the means of transport. c) It has facilitated the quick transfer of technology and ideas as people interact d) It has made industries more efficient. Raw materials, industrial workers, and manufacturedgoods are transported to their destinations cheaply and quickly. e) It has promoted tourist industry which is a major foreign exchange earner in many countries. Accessibility to tourist attraction sites has greatly improved. f) It has generated employment opportunities to many as road constructers, drivers, pilots and mechanics. g) It contributes additional revenue to the government. Countries charge toll fee, license fee and fuel levy. h) Air transport enhances space exploration. i) Has contributed to the growth of the service sector like banking and insurance. j) Transport has promoted humanitarian assistance particularly in disaster situations, e.g distribution of relief food, medical services and evacuations during catastrophes and wars. k) It has led to growth of schools and hospitals and social amenities. In Kenya most schools and hospitals are located along transport routes. l) It has led to agricultural development. Farmers have been able to increase food production since they can transport farm produce and inputs more efficiently and effectively. m) It has stimulated the growth of urban centres. Towns such as London, Nairobi and Harare started off due to their location along transport rous. The towns have also grown due to their transport function. n) Transport has enhanced political control in countries. National security has been enhanced due to accessibility of many areas of a nation. ----- 149 ### o) Transport facilitated colonization of Africa and Asian countries. Railway systems helped them to conquer and suppress local resistances to facilitate easy administration. **Negative effects of transport. ** a) Transport systems are responsible for many accidents in world leading to loss of lives. The Mtongwe ferry accident in Kenya claimed 257 lives in 1994; a plane crash in Ngong in 2012 killed the minister for internal security professor George Saitoti and six others. b) Transport is responsible for environmental pollution. Different forms of transport emit poisonous gases to the atmosphere. Oil tankers cause oil spills in the sea s leading to marine pollution. c) Unless they complement each other, different forms of transport are unreliable. For example, water and railway transport have to be complemented by road transport. d) The growth of international terrorism has been attributed to transport network. Communication **Definition ** This is a Two-way process of reaching mutual understanding, in which participants not only exchange information but also create and share ideas and messages.Communication includes writing, talking and Non-verbal communication (facial expressions, body posture, or gestures. **Traditional forms of communication. ** The methods of communication that were used in the traditional society included; **Gestures ** These are signals or body movements intended to pass a message. The person to whom the gesture is directed must know the meaning of the gesture. It is sometimes referred to as sign language.(a combination of gestures that simulate actions or a sound) **Body language** Sometimes gestures are used to enhance and emphasize speech. They are used where silence is required yet communication is vital like in operating theatres, and in traffic control. **Verbal communication-language** This is the commonest form of communication among human beings involving the use of sound (spoken language) in combination with some gestures or alone, to express messages.There are over 6000 distinct languages world today. **Signals ** The use plants on the roadsides, the shaving of hair, physical marks on ones body or property are means through which communication is passed to others. **Fire and smoke signals** Fire and smoke signals were used to send quick and urgent messages. Fire and smoke signals were coded such that strangers could not interpret the message correctly. They were commonly used in warning people of an impending danger.The Jews used fire ----- 150 ### signals (torch light) to proclaim their feast days on mount Olives.Fire and smoke signals were always sent at night. **Advantages of using fire and smoke signals ** a) Fire and smoke signals Conveyed messages faster than a messenger. b) Confidentiality of messages was upheld since the messages were coded and could not be interpreted by strangers. c) It was a cheap method of passing a message. **Disadvantages of fire and smoke signals ** a) Messages could not be sent over long distances. b) Ranges of messages passed were limited. c) It was restricted by weather conditions/smoke is useless in cloudy and misty days. It is difficult to set fire in wet conditions. Smoke could be blown by wind. d) It was of little use if no one was on the look out to see and interpret. **Drumbeats ** In drumbeating as a means of communication, each beat was coded for relaying different messages. For example there were different beats for ceremonies, announcing funerals, meetings, declaration of war, arrival of strangers and impending attack.Once the initial beat was heard, the other drummers could pick up the beat in different areas thus spreading the message very quickly. **Advantages of drumbeating ** a) Drumbeats could relay a wide range of messages-different beats could convey different messages. E.g. death, danger, festivities. b) In most cases drum beating could be used at any time both day and night whereas smoke signals could only be used during the day. c) Drum beats relayed specific messages whereas smoke relayed general messages. d) Drum beats could be used all seasons whereas smoke signals could not be used during certain seasons e.g. when it is raining.`` e) Drumbeats could convey messages over wide areas. f) Messages by drumbeat were conveyed faster compared to smoke signals. The major disadvantage of drumbeats was that at times it was difficult to differentiate the beats and therefore, the message could not be clearly interpreted thus leading to confusion. **Horn blowing ** They were used to make public announcements, summon warriors or invite people to an important meeting. This was done by specialists with different tones that passed different messages thus passing a wide range of massages. **Screams and cries ** Screaming was effective mostly on hill or mountain tops because of echoing. There were different ways of screaming in different situations.. Ululations signified feasting or good news like child birth. ----- 151 ### **Running messengers** Sometimes there was use of trust worthy runners for very personal and urgent messages. However the accuracy of the message delivered depended on the memory of the messenger. An Athenian soldier, Phidippides, is remembered in history as a great messenger for covering great distance from Marathon to Athens. Unfortunately, he dropped dead shortly after arrival. The Marathon race is named in his honour. Messengers are still used to deliver messages today although there has been tremendous improvement after invention of writing. **Disadvantages of using messengers ** a) Messages could not reach recipients on time since the messengers walked on foot to their destinations. b) Messengers sometimes forgot the message they were to deliver thus leading to inaccurate messages being passed. c) Information could be distorted in the process. Sometimes wrong messages were delivered. d) Messengers could be attacked on the way by wild animals. e) The distance to be covered by messengers was limited since they walked on foot. However this problem was overcome with improvements in forms of transport. **Written messages** The oldest record of writing date back to about 5000years. Different communities use different symbols and alphabets to write messages. The messages were recorded on scrolls, stone tablets parchment (dried animal skin) or paper.The earliest forms of wring were pictographic and ideographic. Examples of these were the cuneiform of Sumerians and Hieroglyphics of the Egyptians. **Cuneiform Writing ** Wedge-Shaped Writing **Scrolls ** Scrolls are rolls of paper which were rolled around rods of wood or ivory for writing on. They were commonly used among the Egyptians, Romans, Asians, Jews, Greek, Hebrews, Chinese and Japanese. Papyrus Reeds along the Nile were used for making writing material. Pens and brushes were also made from the reeds and the hard part of a feather.The Hebrews used scrolls for their sacred writings. **Stone Tablets. ** The Sumerians wrote on clay tablets. Writing was done on wet clay which, after drying, hardened like a stone and left a permanent impression.. for example, Hammurabi the law giver wrote his laws on stone pillars for all to read and obey. The Ten Commandments were also written on stone tablets.On the left is a stela, which has all 282 of Hammurabis laws engraved on it. This stela is located in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. These tablets have been discovered by archaeologists and looked at by historians. ----- 152 ### **Advantages of written messages** a) They provided reliable information that was not easily forgotten. b) Information was stored in that form for future reference. c) Information could be interpreted into different languages so that it could be accessible to many. d) The message in most cases was accurate. **Limitations ** a) They were only limited to literate people. b) At times the information could be biased depending on the writers orientation. c) Written messages were open to misinterpretation. **Modern means of communication** Numerous modes of communication have been evolved over time since the time primitive speech was the main means of communication. The modern means of communication include telephone, radio, television, video, cinema, telegraph, telex, electronic mail. Pager etc.The methods are categorized into telecommunications and print media. **Telecommunications ** This is a term that describes the technology of receiving and sending messages by telephone, radio, television, telegraph, telex, facsimile or e-mail. The message can be verbal, written or pictorial.There are a wide range of devices in telecommunication through which messages can be sent in a variety of ways. For example, Telephone. This a communication device which is used to relay sound waves by converting them into electrical signals and then reconverting them into sound waves. Telephones carry sound over a distance using electric current. The history of the invention of telephones starts with the success of a Scottish-born American inventor, teaching speech to deaf children in Boston Massachusetts, Alexander Graham Bell, who built an experimental telegraph which broke down after one day. Bell constructed a transmitter and a receiver for which he received a patent on March 7, 1876. Assisted by Thomas Watson, he discovered that voice can be sent using wires.Later, Almon Brown Strowger of Kansas City, Missouri, invented the first automatic telephone exchange using electromagnetic switchboard (Strowger Switches) in 1897. By 1900, long distance service was possible through the use of repeaters (electromagnetic devices placed along the route of the call) which amplified and repeated conversations into the long distance instrument. Radio transmission later replaced underground and submarine cables for long distance transmission.In 1877, Graham Bell opened the Bell Telephone Company. In 1900, it was sold t o the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T) In Kenya, telephone communication was introduced in 1908 and has grown tremendously **Cell phones ** A cellular telephony is a type of wireless communication which uses many base stations to divide a service area into multiple cells.The concept of cellular phones began in 1947 ----- 153 ### when researchers looked at the crude mobile car phones and realized that by using small cells with frequency reuse, they could increase the traffic capacity of mobile phones Dr Martin Cooper, a former general manager of the systems division at Motorola is considered the inventor of the first modern portable handset. Which he used for the first time in April 1973.The development of mobile telephony technology was slow in the earlier periods due to the hindrance by the strict federal regulations in USA and Europe. In 1921, the USA mobile Radio began to operate.In June 1946, the first American Commercial mobile radio telephone service was introduced in Saint Louis, Missouri.By 1950s, the first telephone equipped cars took to the roads in Stockholm.In 1964, the Bell system introduced the mobile telephone service. By 1982, commercial cellular phones were being used in the USA and Tokyo in Japan. By 1987, USA had over 1million cellular telephone subscribers.Currently, there are many mobile manufacturing companies are now in operation. For example, Nokia, Motorola Inc., Sony, Alcatel, Samsung, Sagem, Siemens, AG, and Sony Ericsson.There are also a number of mobile phone service providers. In Kenya, the main ones are Safaricom, Airtel, Orange and Yu **Standard Features of cellphones ** a) They are used for making and receiving calls. b) All have a personal phone book. c) They all have the ability to send and receive SMS. d) They have the ability to store messages and display and record the telephone number of a caller. The following features are not standard and vary from phone to phone. a) Calculator, clock and calendar. b) Access to the internet c) Digital camera capability d) A variety of ringtones **Limitations of cell phones** a) They may be prone to poor reception especially where they are reliant on internal antennas. b) Their use is dependent on the availability of electricity. The phone must be recharged after a number of days. In areas where accessibility to electricity is a problem, mobile phones may not be so much in use. c) The continuous use of mobile phones has raised fears of possible side effects of radioactive rays on human beings. d) Handsets are easily stolen due to their small size. **Television ** The a public broadcasting medium that uses a point to multipoint technology to broadcast to any use within the range of the transmitter. In 1855, the idea of a television was perceived but only came into use in 1922 when a Scot, Loggie Baird, showed how moving images could be transmitted by electromagnetic waves.In 1931, the cathode ray ----- 154 ### tube (CRT) was invented in USA. The CRT transforms beams of electrons into visible images on the screen. This led to development of modern television.The first television broadcasting service was launched in 1936 by BBC.I 1942, Baird invented the colour transmission.In Kenya, broadcast television began after a television station was opened in 1970. This was the Voice of Kenya. Kenya was connected to worldwide television via Longonont Satellite Station in1972. In 1990, KTN, the second channel was introduced in Kenya **Cable Television ** Cable television, a commercial service that links televisions to a source of many different types of video programming using Coaxial cables, was introduced in Kenya in 1994. The television users with personal satellite dishes can access satellite programming directly without a cable installation.Recently, the digital television (DTV) was invented. This is the transmission of audio and video of digital signals, in contrast to analog signals Television is an important means of communication since it is an audio-visual device. **Its importance can be summarized as follows; ** a) It conveys news and information from all over the world more vividly than other means of communication such as radio. b) It is a source of entertainment as it shows music and drama programmes. c) It is a device that may be used in educational broadcasting. Some educational programmes are broadcast on television. For example, programmes that sensitize people on HIV and AIDS pandemic. d) It is used in commercial advertisement by manufacturers and companies thus enabling them to sell their products. e) It is the best means of transmitting ideas since it commands attention. f) It is a source of employment in the television stations. g) Television has enabled humankind to bridge the gap of real-time communication between different time zones in the world. **Disadvantages. ** a) TV can only be viewed where there is electricity. It is expensive to install solar panels in areas where there is no electricity. The car batteries that may be used require constant charging. b) Pornographic programmes have eroded cultural values, especially among the youth. Such programmes originate in the west and the youth want to imitate what they see. c) Watching violent programmes has created the culture of violence among the youth. For example, watching of wrestling and violent movies. d) Some advertisements encourage deviant behavior. For example, advertisements of alcohol and cigarettes. e) Watching television can sometimes become addictive in some homes thus limiting the time to participate in other activities. ----- 155 ### **Radio. ** The invention of the radio was a significant development in the electronics industry. In 1864, an English mathematical physicist, clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) suggested that there was the existence of waves.In 1888, a German, Heinrich Rudolph Hertz, (1857-94) demonstrated the existence of electromagnetic waves (vibrations) that travel through space, which were named after him. These waves could be used in wireless communications. In 1901, an Italian, Guglielmo Marconi (1874-1937) invented the radio and sent a radio transmission across the Atlantic from poldhu in Cornwall to Saint John, Newfoundland, Canada.The radio gained prominence during the World War I as it was used to communicate.The Marconi Company made the first radio broadcast in Britain in 1920.The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) was set up in London in 1922.Kenyas Radio Broadcasts before independence depended on the BBC. The VOK began to air programmes after independence. In 1990, VOK changed its name o KBC. In 1995, the FM meter Band was launched thus leading to an increase in radio stations **Importance of radio** a) Radio is easy to access since people can afford to buy the device. b) News and information from the radio is quickly received throughout the country c) It can also be accessed by the illiterate people who can listen and understand the radio news if broadcast in the language they can understand. d) Radio is used to enhance communication in transport systems like motor vehicles, railway, ships and airplanes. e) Radios are sometimes used to broadcast educational programmes and important government communications on issues like health, agriculture and family planning. f) The radio is a source of entertainment. E.g through Music and drama programmes. g) Radio can be used by manufacturers and companies to advertise their products thus stimulating business. h) Radio communication has enhanced space exploration. Radio signals are used to communicate with space vehicles. **Telegraph ** This is a device or process by which messages are passed over a distance, especially using radio signals or coded electrical signals.Telegraph messages are sent by a code in which numbers, letters and punctuation marks are represented by a combination of dashes and dots.The earliest code to be used was the Morse code which evolved into the international Morsecode.A message sent by a telegraph was called a telegram. Radio invention made it possible for wireless telegraphy.Samuel Morse (1791-1892) is credited for the invention of the electric telegraph. In 1837, Morse made the first crude telegraph and by 1844, he successfully sent a telegraph over line.By 1845, the first public telegraph was operating between Washington and Baltimore.In 1851, the first telegraph cable was laid under the English Channel between London and Paris.In 1866, the Trans- Atlantic cable was established.In 1872, most cities in the world were linked by telegraph. ----- 156 ### **Disadvantage. ** ~ Communication through the telegraph could be rendered unreliable where accidents and poor weather could cut telegraph cables. **Internet. ** This is a computer-based global communication network system that links thousands of computers using telephone lines. Currently Mobile phones are also used in internet communication.Internet forms one of the inexpensive and fastest communication means in the world today which has gained popularity..Internet was introduced in the 1970s. Currently there are over 4000 million users of internet in the world today with its popularity being manifested in the social media networks like facebook, Twitter. **Results of internet. ** a) Education has been developed since research can be done on the internet. b) E-commerce can be done on the internet hence enhancing the sale of goods and services. c) The running of government operations can be done on the internet since the government may use it for internal communication, distribution of information and automated tax processing. d) Internet has led to expansion of Business as people use it to interact with other business people. e) Individuals use the internet to communicate through e-mail or other social network platforms such as facebook, Twitter, Skype, etc.Electronic Mail. (E-mail)This kind of communication is also reliant on internet. The communication is done using either computer or mobile phones with the help of a modem. E-mails first came into widespread use in 1990s and has today become a major contributor to business development. It has taken the lead ahead of telephone, fax, radio and television in communication. **Facsimile transreceiver (fax) ** This is a method of transmitting text over telephone network. A written, printed or pictorial document is scanned then sent and reproduced photographically at the destination. The message /picture is transmitted within 30 seconds. The Fax machine was developed by a german named Arthur Korn in 1902 and was commercialized in 1926. **Telex ** This is system of direct dial teleprinter which uses a keyboard to transmit typed text over telephone lines to similar terminals **Satellites** A Satellite is a spacecraft or an artificial device orbiting the earth, moon or another planet, transmitting back to earth scientific information. It is launched at a velocity of at least 28,960 km per hour (escape velocity) to enable it overcome gravitational pull of the earth and thus remain in space.In 1680, a British Scientist, Isaac Newton, introduced the idea of artificial satellites.The first message to be transmitted by satellite was the ----- 157 ### Christmas greeting by President Dwight D Eisenhower of the USA in 1958.In 1969, the first television pictures were relayed around the earth by satellites from Apollo II astronauts. In October 1957, USSR sent sputnik I, the first satellite into the orbit. In the same year, the first living passenger, a little dog called Laika, was carried into space by a satellite.In 1961, a Russian Yuri Gagarin went into space on board of a satellite.In 1969, an American, Neil Armstrong, in his spacecraft Apollo I, landed on the moon.In 1981, the US released the first space shuttle which is manned, airplane like craft which orbits the earth.In 1983, Challenger, the space shuttle, released a satellite into space. In 1986, an accident occurred on the space shuttle, Challenger, killing seven Astronauts **Pagers/beepers ** These are portable communication message devices. In using it, the person sending the message uses a phone and calls a pager number. The impact of telecommunications today. a) Telecommunication has revolutionized communication through enabling faster and easier communication between individuals. This has increased interaction and therefore international understanding. b) Telecommunication has enhanced information management e.g the use of computers for information storage and processing and the internet in communication. c) Telecommunication devices are also sources of entertainment. Radios and television broadcast music and movies to entertain people. d) Telecommunication systems like television bring reality to the viewers by transmitting live pictures. e) Telecommunication devices enhance cultural exchange and understanding through showing programmes from other countries. This helps people to appreciate other peoples culture and even enrich their own. f) Telecommunication systems have promoted water and air transport. Ships at sea and airplanes use these devices to send signals to guide captains and pilots. g) Telecommunication systems have made world trade and businesses more effective and efficient. People can quickly place orders for goods and get news of world markets and commodity prices. h) Telecommunications has enabled organizations, government institutions and individuals to access information and programmes at their convenience. This has led to effective management and good governance. i) Countries have also improved their security systems by using radio and radio calls and mobile tracking systems to combat crimes. j) Modern war fare has been revolutionized. Modern weapons depend on telecommunication services that provide accurate and reliable information. For example, satellites are used to guide missiles. k) Remote areas are no longer inaccessible thanks to telecommunications. People can communicate using cell phones even from the most remote areas of a country. ----- 158 ### l) Telecommunication systems have promoted space exploration. Man has been able to send spacecraft to the moon, mars and Venus using communication satellites. m) Telecommunication is a source of employment in many countries. Many people offer services, operate systems and maintain them. n) Governments earn revenue from telecommunication systems. This revenue promotes economic development. For example taxes collected from licensing of service operators, manufacturers of telecommunication systems etc. Negative attributes to telecommunication . a) Telecommunication has promoted international social crimes such as fraud, drug trafficking and terrorism. b) Some forms of telecommunication promote immorality among children and the youth in the world through watching of pornographic materials. c) Some telecommunication devices cannot be accessed by many people due to the expense of acquisition and installation. d) Telecommunication devices have an addictive effect for many users. This affects speed of development in developing countries AS people sit for long hours watching television instead of engaging in productive activities. e) Mobile phone users risk suffering from effects of the constant exposure to radioactive rays which may cause certain types of cancer. **Print media ** This refers to all that is printed or written down and published. For example, journals, books, newspapers, magazines etc. **Newspapers** It is an unbound publication produced at regular intervals and devoted primarily to current events and advertisements. Before printing was invented, the oldest newspaper, The Siloam Inscription,(a stone on which news were recorded) was in circulation among the people of Mesopotamia at around 700 BC.The Chinese court journal, Tsing Pao, published in Peking in AD 500 was another early form of newspaper.The Roman Bulletin, Acta Diurna, used by Emperor Julius Ceaser from 60BC to post government daily announcements was also an early form of newspaper.Printing was invented by a german, Johannes Gutenberg, in the 15 [th] century. The first publication, Strasbourg Relations, was published in 1609The London Daily Post also known as the Public c. Advertiser was published by Henry Woodfall and his son Sampson Woodfall in 18 [th] The London Times was first published as the Daily Universal Register by John Walter in 1785. It changed its name to Times in 1788.In 1900, C Arthur founded the Daily Express. The first newspaper in Kenya was the African Standard founded by Alibhai Mullas Jeevanjee, in Mombasa in 1902. It later changed its name to the east African standard in 1905. And moved its operations from Mombasa to Nairobi in 1910.in 1928, Jomo Kenyatta published a local newspaper in Kikuyu, Muigwithania aimed at spreading the views of the Kikuyu central Association and promote kikuyu culture.The Daily Nation ----- 159 ### was established by the Aga Khan in 1960In 1983, the Kenya Times was founded by Hilary Ngweno and later bought by KANU and owned jointly with a Briton Robert Maxwel Types of Newspapers . ***Daily Newspapers *** These print atleast one edition every weekday. Some print morning and evening edition when necessary. Examples of daily newspapers include the Daily Nation, The standard, the Toronto Star and The Los Angeles Times. ***Weekly Newspapers*** These are published once a week. They contain news of interest to people in a smaller area, maybe a city or a neighborhood. For example the east African in Kenya and the weekly Telegraph in Britain. ***Special interest Newspapers*** They concentrate on news of special interest to a particular group for example an ethnic community, a corporation or a trade organization. They can be daily, weekly or monthly. ***Periodicals*** These are publications released at regular intervals and containing news, feature articles, poems, fictional stories etc. they also contain photographs and drawings. Periodicals aimed at general audience are called magazines.Periodicals differ from newspapers in that whereas newspapers deal with sometimes daily news and are unbound, periodicals like magazines and journals focus on more specialized material and deal with news in form of summaries or commentaries. They are printer on finer paper with smaller bound pages and issued at a longer interval than a day when compared to newspapers. ***Magazines *** These are periodical publications with specialized information on particular issues. They are published fortnightly, weekly or monthly.The oldest magazine is Eileens Oxford Gazette published in 1665, later became the London Gazette.The first periodical to use the word magazine in its Title was the Gentleman Magazine published in 1731 in Britain. The oldest magazine in Kenya is the Kenya Official Gazette (1900-1963), renamed the Kenya Gazette after independence. Other were the Leader of the British East African Company, Wathiomo Mukinyu by Consolata Catholic Missionaries in Nyeri, Tangaza by Harry Thuku, the East African Chronicles and the Colonial times by the Asian Journals These are periodicals with a narrower target audience such as scholarly publication. They specialize in particular themes or professions. For example the Review of Political Economy, Canadian Journal of African Affairs, the East African Journal of Social Sciences and the East African Medical Journal. **DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRIES ** Industry is defined as the skill of making other products from raw materials. It involves extraction and processing into finished products of raw materials ----- 160 ### **Early Sources of Energy. ** Energy is the ability to do work. The following are the early sources of energy that can be identified. **Wood. ** Wood developed as a source of energy after the discovery of fire. It was used as follows; a) Making fire which provides heat to warm people during cold seasons lighting, to cook roots and roast meat, for hunting(bushfires), tool-making to harden tips, means of communication, food preservation b) Charcoal made from wood fuel provided heat that was used for steaming water to provide steam power for steam engines during the industrial revolution. This is a form of energy still in use today since it is cheaper and easily available. Wind . Wind was used to drive sailing ships during the trade between East African Coast and the Far East.Windmills were used in China to grind grain and process foods They were also used to pump water from polders in Netherlands.Windmills are also used to generate electricity. Windmills are mainly used in areas with fewer trees like in Isiolo, Garissa, Wajir and Mandera.However the use of wind as a source of energy is disadvantaged by its being irregular and inconsistent in direction and strength. **Water. ** Water has been harnessed to produce HEP. Water was used to turn wooden propellers (water wheels) which in turn turned grindstones to grind grains into flour.In England, it was used in the Textile and paper industry to turn spinning machines.In Italy water- powered machines were used to make copper pots, weapons of war, to spin silk and to sharpen various tools. Water also is not reliable as a source of energy since the levels may be too low during dry weather for HEP production. **Uses of metals in Africa ** The age of metals in Africa is divided into the Bronze and Iron Age. Man moved from the Stone Age to the age of metals because metals had the following advantages; a) Metallic tools were more durable. They could not break easily. b) Cutting edges of metals could be sharpened. c) Malleable Metals could be heated and reworked into deferent usable designs when need arose d) Metals are not prone to waste. Broken pieces can be smelted and reworked into useful items. For example a broken spear into an arrow. The following are examples of metals that were used in Africa. **Gold** This was the first metal to be used by humankind. It was used in Meroe, Egypt, Wangara in Ghana and in Central Africa. ----- 161 ### Gold is malleable and therefore it could be easily moulded into the desired shape without smelting it. Its softness however implied that tools made from gold could bend easily. It was also heavy and could not be found everywhere. **Uses of Gold** a) It was used to make ornaments and decorations. In Egypt, it was used to make jewellery like rings, bangles and bracelets. b) It was used to make utensils, such as plates, vases and drinking vessels. c) It was used to make swords and flint knife handles among the rich in Egypt. d) It was used to make coins in Egypt. e) It was used as a trade item in East, central and West Africa f) It was used to make weapons such as sword and knife blades. g) Gold was also a measure of wealth in Egypt. **Copper** Though quite soft, copper as harder than Gold and could make better tools. The Egyptians were the earliest people to use copper by 3000 BC.The metal could further be hardened by mixing it with other metals to form alloys during smelting. **Uses of copper** a) Making utensils and containers such as pots and pans. b) The Egyptians used copper to make axes, tools, Chisels, Pins and fish hooks. c) It was used to make ornamental bangles, rings, helmets, needles, wire chains and statues. d) It was used as a medium of exchange in the form of copper bars. e) It was used to make daggers (weapons). f) It was used as a trade commodity. Those with copper exchanged it with other goods that they did not have. g) It was used to make alloys like Bronze and Brass. ***Bronze. *** Bronze is a mixture of copper and tin which makes it harder than copper. It was used during the Bronze Age. In Africa Bronze was used among the Yoruba, Dahomey and Asante in Nigeria and in Benin. And also in Egypt. Benin was the centre of Bronze. **Uses of Bronze. ** a) Making stronger weapons such as shields, spears, arrowheads, swords and daggers. b) Making sculptures and decorations. For example, in Benin it was used to make objects for religious ceremonies, masks and decorating the kings palace. It decorated temples, palaces and pyramids in Egypt. c) Making knives, containers, pans and vases. d) It was a store of wealth. e) It was used to make tools, shields and chariots. ----- 162 ### **Disadvantages of Bronze. ** a) The tools lost their sharpness and became blunt quickly since the metal was relatively They required constant sharpening. b) Bronze was not cheap. The mixture of copper and yin had to be acquired through trade thus making bronze expensive. c) It was difficult to get an appropriate proportion of each of the two metals. Iron. Two theories that explain the origin and spread of iron working in Africa are ; 1) It was first introduced in North Africa from the Middle East by the Phoenicians and the Assyrians, and then spread to west, East Central and South Africa. 2) The art of iron working probably developed independently in Africa as evidenced by the Archaeological evidence in Buhaya (the oldest Iron Age site that existed between 5 [th] and 6 [th] C AD ), North West of Tanzania. The Buhaya iron is associated with the pottery style known as Urewe-ware. The Hittites were the first people to smelt and use iron in around 1500BC. The skill then spread to the Assyrians. The idea then spread to Africa between 400 and 500 BC and became widespread in the Nile Valley.By 5 [th] c it had spread upto Meroe (the Birmingham of Africa) then to Ethiopia. From Carthage and Tunisia, it spread to West Africa, at Taruga in Nigerias Jos plateau at around 580BC, then to Lake Chad by 500 AD Ways in which the iron culture spread in Africa . 1) Through wars of conquest e.g. Egypt versus Assyrians where the Assyrians forced the Egyptians to learn to use iron from Meroe to make strong weapons. 2) Trade e.g. the Mesopotamians traded with Africans. The North African then traded with the West Africans, thus spreading the iron smelting technology across the Sahara. 3) Intermarriages e.g. Arabs and Africans intermarried and hence a new iron culture and technology developed. 4) Through learning and acquiring the technology from neighbors. 5) Increased demand for iron tools for agriculture, weapons and iron products increased trade in iron. 6) Migrations. E.g in east Africa where the Bantus and nilotes arrived from West African region with the iron culture which they introduced to east Africa. 7) Travelers and messengers who gave out and received the gifts of iron **Uses of Iron ** a) It was used as medium of exchange. Iron bars were used as currency. b) To make agricultural tools such as hoes and pangas this increased food production. c) Weapons such as spears and arrows were made of iron, which strengthened some communities while others who lacked the same were easily defeated. d) Iron was used as a trade item where those who did not have it acquired it through barter trade. ----- 163 ### e) It was used for storing wealth. Smithers used iron bars as a measure of value. **Effects of iron working** a) It promoted empire building. Many kingdoms and empires relied on strong iron, weapons to fight expansionist wars e.g. Egypt, Benin and Mwene Mutapa empires. b) It led to migrations especially of the Bantus who war able to protect themselves during the journeys using iron weapons. c) It promoted agriculture since large tracts of land could now be used to produce more food using stronger tools. d) Adequate food resulted in population increase and later migration to areas with sparse population. e) It resulted in specialization and division of labour as some people became iron smelters while others engaged in other activities like trade. f) It stimulated construction and building works using stronger metals like iron. Better houses, temples and bridges were built. g) Metal technology also had an impact on religion in that metals began to be used when performing religious rites and in royal palaces e.g. the golden stool among the Asante. h) Trading and industrial towns developed within and around the major mining centres like Meroe Axum, in Ghana, in Zimbabwe and in Benin. i) Trade was promoted in that sometimes iron was used as currency and others became important items of long distance and regional trade. INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION IN EUROPE . The Industrial Revolution was a period from 1750 to 1850 where changes in agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transportation, and technology had a profound effect on the social, economic and cultural conditions of the times. It began in the United Kingdom, and then subsequently spread throughout Western Europe, Northern America, Japan, and eventually the rest of the world.The industrial revolution in Europe occurred in two phases;The old phase was from 175-1850 and began in Britain and spread to other European countries like France (1825), Germany (1840), Belgium (1870) and Russia (1890). In USA, it began after the American civil war of 1861 to 1865. In Japan it began in 1900. In Kenya, it is hoped to be done by 2030. **Characteristics of industrial revolution in Europe ** a) The use of machines to replace human and animal labour. b) The use of steam power as a new source of energy to replace water, wind and animal power. c) Increased exploitation and use of coal, iron and steel. d) The rise of the factory system in owns instead of the cottage industries in homes. e) The development of better forms of transport including the use of railways, roads and water. ----- 164 ### f) Improved living standards and an increase in the human population who required more manufactured goods. g) The production of goods on large scale. Machines worked faster than human labour. h) The development of science and the application of scientific knowledge in production. i) There was development of trade as manufactured goods were sold locally and abroad. j) The rise of modern capitalism that provided enough wealth which was then invested back into industry. k) The growth of trade Union Movements to carter for the rights of industrial workers. **Uses of Various Sources of Energy** **Coal ** This is a compact black or dark brown, carbonaceous rock which is a fuel and source of coke, coal gas and coal tar.Abraham Darby invented the process by which coal was turned into coke in 1709 thus discovered that coal produced immense heat. Coke was used to smelt iron. **Uses of coal** a) To heat water to high temperatures so as to produce steam. b) To provide lighting. c) To drive steam engines in factories. Some generators depended on coal heat to produce steam. d) To drive locomotives. This promoted transport. e) It was a raw material in the manufacturing of dye and pharmaceutical products. **Disadvantages of Coal** a) It is bulky and transporting it is difficult. b) It produced too much smoke when used in locomotives. Also gases released during the burning of coal e.g sulphur dioxide polluted the air and caused acid rain. c) Coal was expensive to mine and to transport to the required destination. d) Coal mining was risky to miners who often lost their lives when mines collapsed and buried them. **Petroleum.(often referred to as oil) ** Before 1850, oil was known to American farmers as a substance that affected food production in farms. It was an American Don, Bissel who carried out an analysis of oil samples at a university lab and established that oil was both a fuel and lubricant. The use of oil became widespread with the invention of the internal combustion engine by Gotlieb Daimler. **Uses of oil. ** a) To power vehicles, aeroplanes and ships b) To generate electricity used in lighting and cooking. c) To run engines in industries d) Tar (Bitumen), a by-product of petroleum is used to tarmac roads. ----- 165 ### e) Greasing of metals in industries was also done by petroleum by-products such as grease. f) Certain petroleum chemicals are used in making of drugs, fertilizers, synthetic fibre and plastics. **Disadvantages of oil ** a) For countries importing oil, it is expensive to transport. b) Prospecting for oil is quite expensive. c) Oil may also affect the environment, since extracting large quantities of petroleum may cause land to sink. **Steam. ** Steam is boiling water turned into gas. It was used for first time around 100 AD in a steampowered engine developed by a Greek scientist called Hero.In the 16 [th] century, Thomas Savery, a Briton, built a steam engine which could pump water out of a coal mine.In 1712, Thomas Newcomen improved Saverys design, though he design was still ineffective.In 1764, James Watt improved on Newcomens engine to make it more effective and by 1800, 320 of Watts engines were in use in Britain.In 1801, Richard Trevithick installed one of Watts engines in a road vehicle. Three years later, he produced a steam-driven locomotive that ran on rails.In 1830, George Stephenson improved on Trevithicks work and invented the first steam locomotive, the rocket. In all these engines, coal was used to produce steam. **Uses of steam** a) It was used to drive heavy machinery in factories and to turn turbines that generated power for industrial use, e.g driving, spinning and weaving machines. b) It was used for pumping water out of coal mines. c) It was used in steam powered locomotives and ships. d) The massive temple doors in Egypt were only opened using steam. **Electricity ** Electricity was discovered by an English Scientist called Michael Faraday (1791-1861) in 1831 when he invented the electric Dynamo.His principal of electromagnetic induction was the beginning of both the dynamo and the electric Motor. The energy used energy from coal, oil, steam or water to produce electricity. The use of electricity became widespread from 1900. **Uses of electricity** a) Lighting. b) Heating and cooking. c) Powering machines in factories. d) Communication. Electric signals are used in communication gadgets. e) Powering transport vehicles such as electric trains and electric cars. **Disadvantages of electricity ** a) It can be dangerous if not properly installed or used. ----- 166 ### b) The generation and distribution of electricity is very expensive thus making its use limited to fewer people in developing countries. **Other sources of energy ** **Atomic energy ** In 1896, A French physicist, Antoine Henri Beckquerel (1852 -1903), discovered that uranium produces radiation or energy in waves. (Radioactivity). This was the birth of the development of Atomic energy.In 1938, Hahn and Stressman discovered the process of Atomic fusion which leads to production of Atomic energy.In 1942, a group of scientists led by Enrico-Fermi at the university of Chicago, USA, built the first Nuclear research Station which resulted in the invention of the nuclear reactor and later the discovery of an Atomic Bomb like one which was used Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.In Belgium and France, 60% of the electricity is produced from atomic power. However, atomic energy when used in war can be very fatal.Radioactivity also endangers both animal and plant life.Polluted air, where radioactivity has taken place causes fever, diarrhea and death. For example the radioaction accident in 1985 at Three Mile Island in the USA and at Chernobyl near Kiev in Ukraine in 1986 had fatal consequences. **Solar Energy. ** It is obtained directly from the sun and is used to dry firewood, clothes and to cook food. In 1714, Antoine Lavoisier made a solar furnace which could melt metals.An engine using solar power was used to run a printing press in Paris in 1880.The use of solar water heaters was widespread in USA by 1900.In 1954, the first solar cell which turned sunlight into electricity was made. The energy was then used to heat water and generate electricity. **Uses of Solar energy. ** a) Drying agricultural products. b) Distilling of salty water to get salt crystals. c) Heating water in homes and industry d) Heating and lighting buildings e) Cooking using solar cookers f) Irrigating using solar water pumps, g) Powering satellites in space. **Advantages of solar energy** a) It is clean and is available in places where sunlight is readily available. b) It is natural and therefore free, non-pollutant and inexhaustible source of energy. **Iron and steel ** Iron was not really a source of energy but the industrial revolution was dependant on the availability of iron **Uses of iron** a) Production of machines for textile industry. Water pipes and ploughs were made of iron. ----- 167 ### b) Production of steam engines. c) Building of trains, railway lines ships, wheels, bridges and coach frames.In an attempt to overcome the disadvantages of iron (it was too heavy and could rust easily), in 1856, an Englishman, Henry Bessemer produced steel out of Iron and Carbon. (Steel is an alloy of iron and Carbon and is lighter, flexible, stronger and harder than iron).Stainless steel, commonly used in cutlery is an alloy of Steel and Chromium. **Uses of steel** a) The construction of rail lines, bridges, cars and ships. b) The manufacturing of machinery especially in the agricultural and industrial sector. c) Reinforcement of concrete in buildings and roofing houses. d) Making of containers and utensils. **INDUSTRIALIZATION IN BRITAIN** This change, which occurred between 1750 and 1830, happened because conditions were perfect in Britain for the Industrial Revolution. The transformation was facilitated by the following factors; a) Availability of coal and iron ore which served as a basis for heavy industries. Coal was a source of energy for use in the industries. Iron was used in the manufacture of machinery. b) The agrarian revolution ensured that important raw materials were available for the industries and also made food more available for the many factory centres c) Existence of a large population which provided steady internal market for the manufactured goods/domestic local markets. There was also Availability of external markets in her colonies for the industrial produce. d) Existence of cottage industries which acted as a base for industrial take-off in Britain. It was easier to turn to mass production of goods on the basis of the small scale production in cottage industries. e) Due to the enclosure act, many peasants became available to offer unskilled labour especially following their displacement from the rural areas. f) Political stability and strong leadership that existed at the time created a condusive environment for investments when compared to other European countries. g) Well developed transport and communication network e.g railway, canals, bridges, harbours and roads which promoted industrialization. h) Existence of good banking and insurance systems which gave financial help and security to the industries. i) Britain had a strong navy that guarded her trade routes thus protecting her merchants from foreign competition. j) Policy of free trade encouraged industrialization/ existence of the merchant and middle class who formed pressure groups that forced the government to adopt measures favoring their industries.britain had no internal customs barrier to hurt her industrial growth. ----- 168 ### k) Availability of wealth/capital that stimulated industrial revolution. Britain had accumulated a lot of wealth from her trade with other countries and her colonies in America and Africa.e.g. The steam engine was made in Britain by a wealth Briton. l) Availability of industrial raw materials in her vast colonies. **INDUSTRIALIZATION IN CONTINENTAL EUROPE. ** The Industrial Revolution on Continental Europe came a little later than in Great Britain. **Reasons why other European countries delayed in the industrialization process. ** a) The political upheavals in France, Germany and Italy were responsible for the delay in the take- off of industrialization. b) The existence of a feudal economy in which the peasant farmers could not afford to buy industrial goods nor raise capital to invest in industry. c) The system of farming implied that inadequate raw materials came from the farms thus making it difficult for industrial development. d) Their system of transport was not developed. e) Unlike Britain, these countries did not have an enterprising class of people and scientists ready to take up the task of industrial investment and invention. **Factors that led to industrial development in continental Europe ** a) Political stability and strong leadership that followed the unification of Italy and Germany and end of Napoleonic rule in France created a contusive environment for investments when compared to other European countries. Feudalism was also abolished. b) The agrarian revolution that had taken place in continental Europe ensured that the countries had raw materials for their industries. Other strategic raw materials like coal and iron were readily available. c) There was adequate capital from the rich traders who willingly invested in industry. Britain also gave loans to the European countries to industrialize. d) Existence of good banking and insurance systems which gave financial help and security to the industries. e) Existence of a large population which provided both skilled and unskilled labour required by the industries. f) The European governments supported the industrial ventures that were aimed at enhancing economic development. French and Germany governments gave tax concessions and subsidies to encourage industrialization. g) Existence of a steady internal and external market for the manufactured goods/there was a high European population that consumed most goods locally. h) Well developed transport and communication network e.g. better roads, railway and water transport which meant that industrial workers, raw materials and finished goods could be transported easily. i) Countries in continental Europe had vast sources of energy such as coal, steam power and electricity which enhanced industrial development. ----- 169 ### j) The development of new skills in science and technology facilitated industrial growth. Some European countries like France and Germany sent their people to Britain to acquire skills and ideas in science and also invited English technicians to their countries. **Effects of the industrial revolution in Europe ** a) Creation of employment opportunities. Ordinary working people found increased opportunities for employment in the new mills and factories. b) Emergence of Factories and urbanization. Industrialization led to the creation of the factory system was largely responsible for the rise of the modern city, as large numbers of workers migrated into the cities in search of employment in the factories. c) Improved Standards of living. Living conditions and health care improved during the 19 [th] century. The famines that troubled rural areas did not happen in industrial areas. d) Population increase. As living conditions and health care improved during the 19th century, Europes population doubled every 50 years. Infant mortality reduced. e) Local and international trade developed. Manufactured goods were sold locally while others were exported to America. The industries also created market for raw materials from Africa and Asia. f) European economies became diversified as a result of industrial growth. This led to specialization e.g. traders, bankers, mechanics and agriculturalists. g) Development and use of machinery in agriculture led to increased production h) Improvement in Transportation and technology. The expansion of business and factories expanded Canals, highways and railways were expanded. i) Large scale production of a wide range of goods. new methods of farming, such as the use of fertilizers and new crop breeds were developed j) The industrial revolution promoted development of science and technology. There was increased utilization of knowledge in production of goods as well as scientific inventions such as invention of electricity. k) The emergence of trade union movement. The Industrial Revolution concentrated labour into mills, factories and mines, thus facilitating the organization of combinations or trade unions to help advance the interests of working people. l) Eventually effective political organization for working people was achieved through the trades unions who began to support socialist political parties that later merged to become the British Labour Party. m) It led to Political corruption - the amount of money generated by the Industrial Revolution created a class of super rich who could buy any politician or process. n) Environmental damage - there were few if any rules regarding how resources could be removed and used. The air was horribly polluted from factories, as was the soil and rivers. o) There was increased exploitation of natural resources in Europe during the revolution. Iron, coal and steel production increased. ----- 170 ### p) Industrial revolution was accompanied with economic Exploitation of people. While jobs were created, sometimes the jobs were dangerous and people died. Harsh working conditions, Child labour, dirty living conditions, and long working hours were prevalent. q) Rise of unemployment. The rapid industrialization cost many craft workers their jobs. Many weavers found themselves suddenly unemployed since they could no longer compete with machines to produce cloth. r) The industrial revolution was responsible for the scramble and partition of Africa. The colonies produced raw materials for industries in Europe and also acted as markets for goods processed in Europe. For this reason, many European nations sought to have as many colonies as possible. **The scientific Revolution ** Science is the systematic study of the nature and behaviour of the material and physical universe based on observation. The scientific revolution refers to the history of science in the early modern period, where sudden development in mathematics, physics, astronomy, biology, medicine and chemistry transformed views of society and nature. **Causes of scientific revolution ** a) Discovery of the New World. Exploration/conquest leading to discovery of new plant/animal life. Traditional link between navigation and astronomy + great advances made by Portuguese navigators fueled an interest in learning more about the stars b) Invention of the Printing Press, allowed for rapid dissemination of scientific knowledge. Numerous books and newsletters were in circulation keeping people informed of science c) Rivalry among Nation-States. Constant warfare among nation-states pushed for scientific development by placing an importance on technology, or applied science. Powerful leaders of nation-states funded scientific development. d) Renaissance / birth of knowledge. During this period, Human interest in the classical world increased. Renaissance time made people to develop interest in research/ learning. e) The need to solve their daily life problems like shortages, disease etc. necessity is the mother of all inventions. f) Financial support for governments and individuals. Governments and individuals financed scientific research. g) Religion failed to answer all questions. This sometimes betrayed mans belief in supernatural power thus emphasizing research. Scientific inventions . Scientific inventions have roots in the ancient civilization in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, China and India. Early inventions were witnessed in the field of medicine, astronomy, agriculture, medicine and mathematics as follows; a) The Egyptians discovered geometry which they used on farms. They discovered dead body preservation method (mummification). Build pyramids for their pharaohs using knowledge in mathematics. ----- 171 ### b) Greeks like Pythagoras contributed to mathematics, especially the right angled triangle as early as 200BC, Euclid did some work in geometry. Archimedes discovered how the lever works. Ptolemy is remembered for geographical work especially production of the Atlas. c) The Chinese made cloth from silk and developed acupuncture skills.

He came up with the theory of electricity and invented the lightning rod. 1791 - 1867 Michael Faraday creates the electric motor, and develops an understanding of electromagnetic induction, which provides evidence that electricity and magnetism are related. In 1831, he invented the electric dynamo, a machine which produced electricity from a magnet. 1799 - 1878 Joseph Henry's research on electromagnetic induction is performed at the same time as Faraday's. He constructs the first motor; his work with electromagnets leads directly to the development of the telegraph. **Impact of scientific inventions ** **Impact of scientific inventions on agriculture ** a) Food production has been increased thanks to the use of farm machinery, fertilizers, pest 1831-1979 James Clerk Maxwell pointed out that acceleration of electric charges emitted electromagnetic radiation. The ideas underlying Maxwells theories of electromagnetism describe the propagation of light waves in a vacuum. ----- 172 ### 1787-1854 . In 1827, George Simon Ohm determined that the current that flows through a wire is proportional to its cross sectional area and inversely proportional to its length or Ohm's law. 1876 Nicolaus Otto, A German traveling salesman named constructed the first practical internal combustion engine; it used a four stroke cycle of a piston to draw a fuel-air mixture into a cylinder, compress it, mechanically capture energy after ignition, and expel the exhaust before beginning the cycle anew. 1847-1869 Alexander Graham Bell, In 1876, at the age of 29, invented his telephone. 1701 Tull, Jethro invented a horse-drawn seed drill. 1764 Water frame invented by Richard Arkwright - the first powered textile machine. 1888-1946 John Logie Baird is remembered as the inventor of mechanical television (an earlier version of television).

It was improved upon by William Horrocks, known for his invention of the variable speed batton in 1813. 1847 -1931 Thomas Alva Edison is Most famous for his invention of the electric incandescent light bulb. ----- 173 ### 1853 - 1937 Elihu Thomson. His experiments eventually led to the adoption of alternating current technology. 1913 Robert Adler. He is Most famous for his invention of the wireless TV remote control. 1856 -1943 Nikola Tesla is Recognized as one of the outstanding pioneers in the electric power field 1765-1825 Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin in 1794. The cotton gin is a machine that separates seeds, hulls and other unwanted materials from cotton after it has been picked. 1895 Wilhelm Rntgen discovers x rays. 1898 Marie and Pierre Curie separate radioactive elements. 1898 Joseph Thompson measures the electron, and puts forth his \"plum-pudding\" model of the atom -- that the atom is a slightly positive sphere with small, raisin -like negative electrons inside. and control methods and scientific breeding. Hybrid seeds have been developed together with new animal breeds. b) Scientific inventions have stimulated scientific research in the field of agriculture. This is done in schools, agricultural institutes and colleges. c) Farming of perishable foods has been made possible due to invention of preservation methods for foods like canning and refrigeration. d) Increased food production has led to increase in population. There is increased food security. There is also increased trade. e) Biotechnology has contributed to diversification of agriculture leading to greater crop and animal production. f) Farming has been revolutionized from small-scale subsistence farming to large scale economic activity due to mechanization on farms Negative impacts of scientific inventions on agriculture . a) The consumption of chemically treated and stored food has raised concern for food related disease such as cancer and heart diseases b) Use of pesticides and fertilizers sometimes poses the challenges of cost. Some pesticides are toxic and therefore harmful to humans and animals. c) Consistence use of fertilizers impoverishes the soil fertility. The more the fertilizer is used the more the soil becomes infertile. d) Traditional crops are being threatened by biotechnology and development of hybrids. Impact of scientific inventions on industry . a) Large quantities of goods can be produced due to scientific inventions. This has led to enjoyment of economies of scale. b) Efficient sources of energy necessary for industrial production have been developed. New forms of energy such as nuclear, solar and electricity have been invented. c) Improvements in transport and communication have stimulated industrial development. ----- 174 ### Movement of labour, raw materials and manufactured goods is efficient. d) There has been increased exploitation of resources like factories, fisheries, minerals etc as factories yearn for raw materials due to increased production. e) The large scale manufacture of goods has led to growth of trade. This in turn has created wealth for industrialized nations. f) Space exploration has been enhanced through science. Satellites are used in photographing of the earths surface and in weather research. g) Science has revolutionized military technology. Dangerous weapons have been manufactured. h) There is faster dissemination and spread of ideas or knowledge and skills due to development of printing press, and internet development. i) Industries have created job opportunities. Exploitation of mineral deposits has created employment. **Negative impact of scientific inventions on industry** a) Scientific inventions in industry have led to industrial wastes and pollutants that contribute to environmental pollution. Smoke pollutes the air, machines cause noise pollution etc. b) Human life has suffered unnecessarily due to development of war weapons and accidents on roads and aeroplanes. c) Many people have been rendered unemployed due to development of machines. Impact of scientific inventions on medicine a) Discovery of various medicines to treat both animals and human diseases has boosted both curative and preventive measures in promoting health. b) Improved nutrition has reduced the number of disease that kills man. Population has there increased as a result of reduced death rate. c) Proper diagnosis of disease is now possible with the use of x-rays and other modern scientific methods. With accurate diagnosis, proper treatment can be given. d) The manufacture of various drugs has been facilitated by scientific discoveries. Many companies produce drugs that prevent and cure diseases. **Factors undermining scientific revolution in third world countries ** a) Lack of enough funds for scientific research. b) High level of ignorance and illiteracy. c) The educational systems do not allow for development of inquisitive mind and development of interest in science. The system is not science oriented. d) The brain drain; the few specialized scientists have migrated to areas with greener pastures like Europe and America. e) There is too much dependence on developed countries for nearly everything manufactured or scientifically produced. f) Lack of adequate support from the government. This is clear in the type of budgetary allocations to scientific research. ----- 175 ### **Measures that can be undertaken to promote scientific research in third world ** **countries. ** a) Putting emphasis on the teaching of sciences in schools. b) Making available financial resources for scientific research. c) Emphasizing on competitions and congresses in schools and colleges. d) The government of Kenya has set up research institutions and centres of science and technology. e) Scientists have been trained locally and abroad on new knowledge in science and technology. f) International cooperation conferences in science, which bring scientists together, are organized and attended by Kenyan scientists. **Emergence of selected world industrial powers ** **United States of America. ** This is the third largest nation in the world after Canada and China Industrialization of the USA began in the mid 19 [th] c and she had emerged as a major industrial power by mid 20 [th] c. USA remains the only superpower in the world after collapse of USSR in 1990. Factors influencing the industrialization of USA . a) Abundance of natural resources like iron ore, oil from the oilfields of Texas, copper and coal. There were also agricultural raw materials like cotton, corn, wheat and Tobacco plus forest resources which boosted industrial development. b) Good transport and communication. The USA government developed transport systems in the country. For example railway (opened in 1869), roads, and water transport. Electronic communication was also developed. c) Availability of both skilled and unskilled labour some of which came from the immigrant population. The American system of education gave room for acquisition of necessary skills. d) There were scientific and technological advances to support the industrial process especially by the Europeans who moved to USA. The education system also promoted research which further boosted industrialization. e) Foreign investments in the 19 [th] c from countries like Britain led to industrial development. f) The high American population was a source of domestic market for her industrial products. Her high quality products were also on high demand outside America. g) Enterprising citizens. The Americans were ready to venture into business. Some had good managerial skills. For example John Rockfeller ventured in the petroleum sector, Andrew Carnegie and James Hill in the steel and iron industry. Henry Ford in the mass production of cars. ----- 176 ### h) Long periods of political stability since her independence assured investors of security and thus paving way for industrialization. i) Availability of sources of energy like coal, petroleum, gas and HEP and later Atomic energy. j) The capitalism policy encouraged both local and external investors since it allowed private ownership of property. k) Government support. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1933-1945) and Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921) provided capital to develop transport systems. l) The 1 [st] and 2 [nd] World wars. During the war period, European nations were unable to produce goods since they were busy fighting. This enabled USA to expand her market as she initially kept away from the war. **Germany ** The unification of Germany took place in 1871 after which she began to emerge as an industrial power. **Emergence of Germany as an industrial power was aided as by the following ** **factors. ** a) Establishment of the customs union, Zollverein. This linked the german states and removed trade barriers hence leading to free trade and economic growth in Germany. Transportation of goods and communication was eased by the customs union. b) Germany was rich in coal which was an important source of energy for the industries. HEP and Atomic energy was also produced o boost industrialization. c) Abundance of natural resources like water and minerals like iron ore from Alsace and Lorraine, coal, oil and copper which were vital industrial raw materials. d) The large Germany population was a source of both skilled and unskilled labour. The system of education also ensured availability of skilled labourers. e) There was also a large domestic market from the large population. Her products were also on high demand from the rest of Europe. For example, her vehicles (Volkswagen, BMW and Mercedes Benz) f) Existence of good transport and communication networks of roads, railway and waterways. This ensured easy transportation of raw materials to factories and finished goods from industries to the market. g) Existence of long periods of political instability in Germany after unification in 1871 under the leadership of Otto Von Bismarck which ensured investor security. h) The availability of finance for industrial growth from the rich german citizens and from loans granted by USA in 1924. The Marshal Plan after 1945 was another source of finance. i) The existence of a hard working and enterprising people in Germany. For example, Krupp Meyer Thyssen who promoted the development of industries in steel. Egells and Harkoft Borsig made great contributions in the field of machinery. ----- 177 ### Germans industrialization was however interrupted during the two world war periods. At the end of world war Germany was able to recover and progress in industrial development. **Factors which enabled Germany to recover after world war two. ** a) West Germany still had a high population which was an important resource in terms of labour. There were also a high number of immigrants from European countries like Turkey and Italy. b) The USA marshal Plan ensured that the required finance was available to assist her industries. c) Germany industries were not totally destroyed by the two wars. d) Industrial \\unrests was not very common in Germany, and therefore, industrialization was not interrupted. e) Good leadership accelerated the industrialization process. Between 1949 and 1955, Germany chancellor Konrad Adenaur proved to be an able leader who encouraged industrial growth. **Japan. ** Japan is a nation that has achieved a great deal in industrialization. In the 18c, Japan was faced with civil wars. Later she made contacts with the west, through which her leaders realized that industrialization could strengthen Japan as a nation. Great strides towards industrialization were made during the reign of Emperor Meiji from 1896. **Factors that enabled Japan to emerge as an industrial power** 1. She had enterprising citizens who were hard working and determined. They are always ready to undertake risks in business. The national motto just in time confirms their efficiency. 2. The Long period of political stability especially after World War II has promoted industrialization. 3. The role played by America in financing the industrialization process in Japan as a means of preventing her from falling under the influence of communists after world war II. This enabled Japan to build many industries in the post war period. 4. Japan is a country whose industrial growth has never been slowed down by industrial disputes. The Japanese work for life. When one is employed in Japan, they put the interest of the employer first. This therefore reduces industrial disputes. 5. The Japanese goods are always of high quality and affordable. For example the vehicles, thus ensuring a steady market both local and international. 6. The Japanese education system is technically oriented ensuring production of skilled. Unskilled manpower has been made availability thanks to the abolition of the policy of feudalism that enabled labourers to move from the farms to the industries. 7. Japan has a well developed transport and communication network of railway, roads, water transport, large airports and electric trains. This has enabled improved transportation of raw materials to factories and manufactured goods to markets ----- 178 ### 8. Existence of an industrial base. Before World War II, Japan had already attained a certain level of industrial development. Many industries were not completely destroyed during the war period. The industries were repaired after the war. 9. Japan has a highly developed renewable hydro-electric power given the existence of large and fast flowing rivers. 10. The government invited expatriates and deployed them to local industries. In 1870, a group of 100 Japanese were sent out to western European factories to learn. 11. Geographical factors. The countrys terrain did not favour agriculture thus making industrialization the best option to improve her economy. 12. The open investment policy encouraged the west to invest in her industrialization. The government encouraged foreign industrialists to plough back their capital and resources into the Japanese economy. **Industrialization in the third world countries. ** The term Third world refers to developing nations of Africa, Asia and South America. Most of them are former colonies of European powers and there resources were used to develop the mother countries during the colonial period. Reasons why many developing countries have lagged behind in industrialization . a) Long periods of colonization relegated them to the role of suppliers of raw materials and as markets for industrial goods from developed nations at the expense of their own industries. b) Poor transport and communication systems has undermined industrialization since raw materials and manufactured goods cannot be transported to their various destinations. c) Inadequate capital. Most of the third world countries have poor agricultural-based economies which cannot support meaningful industrialization. d) Poor technology. The use of appropriate technology in third world countries is lagging behind and this hampers exploitation of natural resources and manufacturing of goods. e) Many developing countries face stiff completion from the industrialized nations that produce high quality products and have an advanced marketing system for their goods. f) High levels of illiteracy among majority of the population in developing countries leads to lack of technical and scientific skills necessary for industrial take off. g) The protectionist policies adopted by developing countries have discouraged private enterprises and foreign investment. Policies like nationalization and imposition of import duties discourage investors in many countries. h) High levels of poverty in third world countries mean low domestic market. Governments also spent most of their resources to provide for the basic needs of their citizens at the expense of industrialization. i) Many third world countries have been faced with political instability problem. This has hampered industrialization. There are numerous civil wars or cross-border conflicts in many countries. ----- 179 ### j) Third world countries often poor disaster management strategies. The devastating effects of natural disasters affect industrialization. k) Lack of skilled personnel. Many well trained people migrate to the developed nations in search of well paying jobs. Since independence however, some have made tremendous effort to industrialize. For example, South Africa, Brazil and India. **Brazil** The fourth largest nation in the world after Canada, China and USA, she was colonized by Portugal and attained her independence in 1882. In the last 25 years, she has been able to expand and diversify production of manufactured goods. **Her industrialization has been in four main sectors namely; ** 1. Petroleum and petrochemical industries . She has petrochemical complexes based in the states of Balica, Rio Grande, Dosul and Sao Paulo. 2. Motor vehicle industry . The country has earned a lot of forex through the massive manufacture and sale of motor vehicles since 1997. 3. Aircraft and aerospace industry . The Brazilian Space Agency (AEB) and the National Institute of Space Research (NPE) have been involved in the Brazilian space programme which comprises the construction of satellites and launching of space craft. 4. Electricity generation industry . The main source of Brazilian electric energy is water. In 1996, 92 % of all her electricity power generation was HEP. **Factors that have facilitated industrialization in Brazil** a) Availability of Cheap and both skilled and unskilled labour from the countrys large population especially after the abolition of slave trade. b) Plentiful natural resources. For example mineral supplies like gold, coal, iron ore, uranium, and manganese etc, agricultural raw materials like coffee, sugarcane, cocoa and maize and forest resources are a great boost to industrialization c) Availability of hydro-electricity as early as 1905 to boost industrialization. Coal is also available. d) Foreign capital. There was heavy influx of foreign capital from countries such as the USA,Canada, Britain, Portugal and France which led to establishment of industries in the country. e) Improved transport and communication. Railway lines were constructed in most parts of Brazil thus opening the interior areas for the exploitation of natural resources and transportation of manufactured goods. f) Good economic policies adopted by President Getulio Vargas (1930-1945) have contributed to industrialization in Brazil. He encouraged the development of transport and communication. He encouraged the harnessing of HEP. He Provided loans and subsidies to certain industries. Adopted protectionist policies of imposing heavy duties on imports. He encouraged exploitation of oil. ----- 180 ### g) Development of banking in major Brazilian cities such as Manaus, Salvador, Brasilia and Sao Paulo facilitated provision of loans to individuals who wanted to venture in business. h) Large Internal and external markets. Increased Trade between Brazil and other countries has led to growth of external market to supplement the available market locally. i) The World War II which made it hard for her to import goods from Europe thus compelling her to manufacture her own goods. **Obstacles to industrialization in Brazil. ** a) High levels of poverty (more than 40% of the population is poor) meaning low purchasing power. Governments also spent most of their resources to subsidize the basic needs of their citizens at the expense of industrialization. b) Inability to fully exploit her natural resources especially those found in low population zones like the south where labour for exploitation is lacking. c) Huge foreign debt. A lot of money is being used to service these debts at the expense of industrialization. d) Poor technology. The use of appropriate technology for exploitation of natural resources and manufacturing of goods is still lagging behind in Brazil. e) Stiff completion from the industrialized nations like USA and Western Europe that produce high quality products and have an advanced marketing system for their goods. f) The resources of Brazil are monopolized by the multinational companies that are based there. The government therefore has no freedom to exploit them for use in industries. **SOUTH AFRICA ** She attained majority rule in 1994 after a long struggle against the apartheid regime. The country has achieved great strides in industrialization with many industries including iron and steel industries, engineering, locomotive, chemical, textile, cement, light industries and tourism **Factors influencing industrialization in South Africa ** a) The country is endowed with mineral resources such as gold, diamonds, Iron etc. b) Availability of Cheap and both skilled and unskilled labour from the countrys large population. c) Availability of natural resources. For example mineral supplies like gold, lead, iron ore, uranium, manganese, Zinc, Bauxite, Tin, Chromium, Tungsten, Phosphate etc. some of these resources are in plenty and are exported to earn forex. d) Development of hydro-electricity has boosted industrialization. Coal is also available from the Witwatersrand. e) Development of transport and communication. Railway lines, water and road network have been improved thus opening the resources for the exploitation and for transportation of manufactured goods. Air transport is also well developed thus enhancing business operations. ----- 181 ### f) Availability of capital from her trade in other materials. g) Government support. The government has adopted sound economic policies that promote industrialization. For example imposing heavy tariffs on the imported commodities as a means of protecting local industries, encouraging foreign entrepreneurs to invest in the country and encouraging local investors. h) South Africa is endowed with a variety of tourist attractions like wildlife which boost the tourism industry. i) Large Internal and external markets. Increased Trade between South Africa and other countries especially after end of the apartheid rule has led to growth of external market to supplement the available market locally. **Challenges facing industrialization in South Africa. ** a) Long periods of apartheid rule was accompanied with sometimes violent resistance and struggle for majority rule which created an atmosphere not conducive for investment b) The country suffered long periods of economic sanctions imposed by the United Nations between 1948 and 1994 which affected her manufactured goods that could not access external markets. c) There were rampant industrial strikes in the country, during the apartheid regime which affected industrialization. d) The HIV and AIDS scourge has ravaged the countrys labour force thus seriously undermining the industrial efforts. e) There is stiff completion from the industrialized nations in Western Europe that produce high quality products and have an advanced marketing system for their goods. f) High levels of insecurity which, at times, discourages would-be foreign investors. g) High levels of poverty in South Africa mean low purchasing power. Manufactured goods perform poorly locally. **India. ** Since Indias independence from Britain in 1947, the country has continued to experience extensive industrialization Factors that facilitated Indias industrialization . a) Existence of good industrial base from the textile and leather industries. The British governor Lord Dalhousie also laid a good foundation for industrialization by promoting road construction and cotton growing. b) Also cottage industries like smithing and textiles existed in India long before colonialism. This formed the basis for modern industries c) Availability of Cheap and both skilled and unskilled labour from the countrys large population which is almost at a billion mark d) Existence of raw materials. For example mineral supplies like iron ore, manganese and coal allowed development of heavy industries. Cotton was also available as a textile industry raw material ----- 182 ### e) Development of energy sources like coal and hydro-electricity has boosted industrialization. Other sources of energy include oil, natural gas and nuclear energy.. f) Development of transport and communication. The great trunk road from Calcutta to Punjab and sea transport development has led to resource exploitation and transportation of manufactured goods. Communication services have also been greatly improved. g) Good technical and scientific education available in India has produced experts who are in great demand in industry and agriculture. h) Availability of capital from her trading contacts with European countries like Portugal, Britain, France and Holland. i) Good national development plans. In the first five-year development plan of 1951, the government adopted sound economic policies that prioritized agriculture especially modern farming. The second phase emphasized industrialization, especially decentralization if industries to high population areas where labour and market existed. j) The government has imposed protective tariffs on the imported commodities as a means of protecting local industries. k) Political stability. India has enjoyed a long period of political stability since her independence thus giving investors confidence. l) Development of banking in India has enabled farmers and industrialists to access credit facilities. **Challenges facing industrialization in India** a) Competition from goods manufactured in the developed countries; the developed nations produce goods of high quality than those manufactured by the Indian industries. b) High population in India requires that the government spare enough capital to feed the people. The government spends a lot of revenue in developing agriculture to feed her people. c) High poverty levels i.e. majority of the Indian population is poor and do not have adequate purchasing power for her manufactured goods/ the local market is therefore limited. d) Lack of efficient communication and transportation infrastructure hence poor movement of goods and labour. e) Natural calamities e.g. drought and floods that destroy raw materials for industries. f) Political conflicts e.g. with neighboring Pakistan, and the civil unrest hinders industrial development. **URBANIZATION ** This is the process by which people are attracted to live in towns or large settlements. An urban centre is any area with a human population of 20,000 people or more. **Early Urbanization. ** Some of the early urban centres in Africa included Cairo, Meroe/Merowe and Kilwa. Factors that influenced development of urban centres in Africa. ----- 183 ### a) Existence of transport routes-Meroe/Merowe located at an intersection of transport routes. b) Availability of water for irrigation which increased food production and influenced growth of towns e.g. Cairo. c) Industrial development areas of industries grew up as towns since they attracted laborers e.g. Cairo. d) Commercial activities like trade-location along trade routes. e) Strategic location which ensured security and thus ample growth e.g. Kilwa. f) Growth of religion some grew rapidly because they were religious centres. g) Mining led to development of towns e.g. Meroe, Johannesburg. **Cairo. ** This is the capital city of Egypt. The city was founded in 969 AD when the conquerors from Tunisia, The Fatimid Dynasty invaded and conquered Egypt **Factors for the growth of Cairo** a) The Nile River provided water for domestic use and was also a means of transport. This enabled Cairo to grow. b) Availability of water for irrigation which increased food production and influenced growth of Cairo. c) Industrial development various industries developed in Cairo. Food processing industries and construction works. The industries attracted migrants from rural areas. d) Fertile Nile Valley. the Valley had adequate rainfall and the river always carried silt which it deposited downstream to provide e) The Suez Canal which was opened in 1869 opened a new trade route which encouraged the arrival of thousands of Europeans. Commercial, administrative and public buildings were constructed during this time. f) Commercial activities like trade-location along trade routes. The Strategic location along the Nile attracted caravans which would pass through Cairo from North, west and Central Africa g) The opening of the Aswan High Dam in 1902 enhanced food production through irrigation thus influencing Cairos growth. h) The effects of the two world wars which disrupted Egypts trade with other countries thus compelling her to find ways of substituting imports. This boosted industrialization i) Cairo is a cultural centre being home to treasures preserved from the early Egyptian civilization and Islamic culture in their museums. The city of a thousand Minarets. j) Cairo also grew as a centre of education and medicine. Several institutions of higher learning such as the University of Cairo, American University and Azar University contributed to this. **Functions of Cairo ** a) It was a national capital and a political centre of the Arab world. b) It serves as the transport and commercial centre of North Africa and the Middle East. ----- 184 ### c) It is a recreational centre housing many recreational facilities like stadiums and entertainment halls d) Cairo has been a historical centre being the house to the Egyptian civilization for over 5000 years e) Cairo serves as an industrial centre. Many of these developed during the industrialization process. For example, textile, vehicle and communication equipment assembly plants. Cairo faces the following problems today; a) High population. Cairo is the largest city in Africa and the Middle East. One fifth of Egypts population stays in Cairo. In 1988, her population was 11 million. b) Scarcity of food. The high population in the city has caused food shortage. c) Unemployment. The number of unemployed people in Cairo is increasing every year mainly due to the high rate of migration to the city and the natural population increase. d) Housing problems. Between the Nile and the main airport, between 250,000 to 900,000 poor people have put up shanties. This area is commonly reffered to as the city of Death. e) Traffic jams. f) Pollution from the industries, vehicle exhaust, desert storms and garbage burning. g) High crime rate. This is mostly due to the high unemployment level Solutions to the problems facing Cairo. a) The food shortage problem is being tackled through reclaiming land for agriculture. The Aswan high Dam provides water for irrigation. b) The housing problem is being addressed by constructing industries in the suburbs to reduce the population in the city. c) Traffic jams have been eased through the launching of the Cairo Metro in 1987, which was Africas first subway system, which serves the Ramses station to the north and Helwan area to the south. It conveys 60,000 passengers per hour. **Meroe/Merowe. ** This was the second capital of the kingdom of Kush and emerged as a city in 650 BC. It rose to become an important industrial centre and specifically iron working producing weapons, hunting and farming tools. **Factors for growth of Meroe. ** a) Existence of transport routes-Meroe/Merowe was located at an intersection of transport routes (from east via the red sea and from north via Egypt). This promoted trade with other parts of the world. b) Abundance of wood fuel, from the heavily forested Blue Nile / white Nile intersection area, which was a key to the prosperity of the iron-working industry. c) Mining Merowe was located in a region endowed with a lot of iron. **Social effects of the growth of Merowe** ----- 185 ### a) The Merotic language developed to replace the Egyptian language previously used by the Nubian founders of Merowe. b) New architectural developments took place in the region. These were characterized by tombs where rulers were buried after death, ruins of temples, palaces and homes. c) Other industries developed besides the iron working industry. For example, weaving of cotton, cloth and pottery **Functions of Meroe during the colonial period ** a) Meroe was a centre of iron working hence an early industrial centre. b) A mining centre since Meroe had iron ore, which it mined. c) A religious function since it had many temples where people worshipped their gods. The priests who headed the Meroe church had their headquarters in Meroe. d) It was a centre of trade. e) It was an administrative and political centre. f) Transport centre-major trade routes converged and radiated from Meroe. **Factors that led to decline of Merowe ** a) The rise of Axum kingdom of Ethiopia which denied her access to the red sea. b) The increasing desertification of the region, perhaps due to the rapid deforestation. The city began declining in 350 BC. **Kilwa ** The town is among the city states that developed along the east African coast. Her greatness was due to the Persian influence. One of its Shirazi rulers from Banadir Coast in Persia, Ali Ibn Hassan, transformed the town into a large city.The sultan erected a stone citadel to protect the island from external enemies. He also forced other conquered city-states to pay tribute to Kilwa.Later on Sultan al-Hassan Ibn Sulaiman I built the Great mosque of Kilwa in 1270 AD and a luxurious palace referred to by historians as Husuni Kubwa. **Factors influencing the growth of Kilwa ** a) Exemplary leadership provided by the Shirazi Leaders who kept enemies off and forced the neighbouring city-states to pay tribute to Kilwa. b) The strategic location of Kilwa enabled her to attract merchants as it was a convenient stopping place. c) Monopoly of the sofala Gold Trade. The control of the Sofala Gold trade had fallen in the hands of Kilwa by 1300 AD d) The gleaming buildings of Kilwa such as the great Mosque and palace made her the Jewel of the Zenj Coast, minting her own coins to add to her prosperity.. the mosque became a tourist attraction later own **Functions of Kilwa. ** a) It was a major trading centre flourishing mainly due to the gold trade. b) It was a major defence centre since it was heavily fortified against external aggression by a stone citadel. ----- 186 ### c) It was a religious centre. Mosques for Islamic worship were located at Kilwa e.g the great mosque. d) It was an administrative centre which housed palaces for the rulers and other rich people.However 14 [th] C AD, Kilwas prosperity began to decline due to the following reasons. **Factors that led to the decline of Kilwa. ** a) Disruption of the Gold trade/ civil wars among communities. b) Dynastic rivalries/ family feuds. c) Series of rebellions among some of the towns. d) Conquest by the Portuguese who even burnt the towns. **Factors that led to the collapse of early urban centres in pre-colonial Africa ** a) Collapse of state system and kingdoms for example Kush collapse and the coastal city states. b) Collapse of trade and their economic systems e.g. the trans-Saharan trade and long distance trade. c) Collapse of Arab influence I east Africa and east Africa. d) Impact of Portuguese conquest leading to destruction of towns like manda and decline of others. e) Introduction of new types of trade e.g. legitimate trade which replaced slave trade. f) European colonization brought in a new social political and economic order. g) Exhaustion of mineral resources e.g. gold as in case of sofala and Kilwa as well as Meroe. Some minerals lost value. h) Changes in transport routes as new roads by-passed some towns thus diverting trade to other centres e.g. Timbuktu i) As a result of stiff competition, some towns dwindled as others expanded. **Early urban centres in Europe ** **Athens** This is one of the early states in ancient Greece that flourished after the Persian wars of between 490-480 BC.Athens developed from a farming settlement situated in a defensive site. It had many beautiful buildings such as the Parthenon (a large temple built between 460 and 430 BC in honour of Athena, the goddess of Athens). The acropolis was the highest part of the town.Athens had narrow streets and some of its houses were made of unbaked bricks or mud and thatched roofs.There were frequent outbreaks of diseases due to poor sanitation.The concept of democracy first developed in Athens. At the centre of the city was a market, Agora, which was used as an assembly hall for debates.Athenians were divided into four classes. a) First class the richest that were the most heavily taxed. b) Second class- provided the cavalry for the army. c) Third class- provided the soldiers for the infantry. d) The fourth class- the poorest and who paid no taxes. ----- 187 ### Athens began to decline due to the Peloponnesian wars (431-404 BC). It was finally crushed in 338 BC by Phillip of Macedonia.Currently Athens is the capital of Greece with a population of 4 million. **Factors that led to growth of Athens. ** a) Trade and commerce. Their soils of the surrounding areas were infertile and, therefore could not support agriculture. The Athenians therefore resorted to trade to obtain foods in exchange for wine, wool and olive oil. b) Security. Athens was located in an easily defensible place. The town was surrounded by water, valleys and highlands making it difficult for an external enemy to attack. c) Religious activities. The area was a worship centre. People coming to the Parthenon temple contributed to the growth of the town. d) Accessibility and communication network. The port of Athens was located about six kilometres from the city thus making Athens a transport centre. e) Availability of water. **Functions of Athens. ** a) It was a cultural centre. The Greeks loved to watch play. In Athens, there was the great theatre of Epidaurus. b) An educational centre. In Athens, every person was taught how to read and write.

There were Gymnasiums where boys were taught games which were developed into what came to be known as Olympics. d) Religious centre. The Parthenon temple was a great manifestation of this function. People coming to the Parthenon temple contributed to the growth of the town. **London. ** The capital city of England, it is situated on the estuary of the river Thames. Its name is derived from the name Llyn Dun which means Celtic Lake Fort. The town developed during the Roman rule in Britain in A.D 43.By 314 AD London had become an early centre of Christianity.In 1381, the city was adversely affected by a serious peasant, revolt that led to massive destruction of property.By 18 [th] c, London had emerged as an elegant city though however also with numerous urban related problems. In 1890, it hosted the worlds first electric train. **Factors influencing growth of London** a) Trade-money obtained from trading was used to build the city. b) Industrialization-industry such as textile, ship building, metal works, etc led to the growth of London. c) Improved transport London is well served by a network of railway and roads.

The city has theatres for the performance of cultural activities and museums which display artefacts of Historical importance. **Problems of London** Like many large cities worldwide, London has its share of problems: a) Overcrowding, b) Unemployment has continued to increase with the growing population. In 1988, for example, nearly 1 in 8 people were unemployed throughout London and the situation in the inner city was worst c) Poor housing and homelessness. This has led to development of slums. d) Transportation is another problem. However, an excellent public system has helped to alleviate this. e) Air pollution continues to be a major challenge. f) Rural-urban migration by the job seekers causing overcrowding in the city. g) Poverty. This was a greater problem in London in the initial stages. **Modern cities in Africa. ** **Nairobi. ** Nairobi developed as a depot and camp for the railway workers during the construction of the kenya-Uganda railway **Factors influencing the growth of Nairobi ** a) Excellent location in an area almost midway between Mombasa and Lake Victoria. b) There was adequate supply of water. c) The land was suitable for construction of workshops as it was flat. d) The climate was suitable for Europeans.

The population growth in Nairobi to 3 million has not corresponded to the development of housing. d) Inadequate social services including health services and educational facilities. e) Congestion on roads caused by an increase in the number of vehicles on the roads while the road network is not expanding. f) Poor town planning has led to poor drainage, especially during heavy rains when a lot of flooding occurs g) Pollution continues to be a major challenge in Nairobi. The factories located in the city are a cause of air and noise pollution. h) Water shortage caused by the high rate of expansion in the town and the depletion odf water reservoirs. i) The rate of HIV/AIDS infection is very high. **Solutions to these problems** a) New housing projects are being developed. For example the Mathare slums upgrading project. b) The education and other social services are being provided through a cost-sharing scheme between the government and the town dwellers. c) The government is addressing the transport/congestion problem through the upgrading of the Thika superhighway to an eight lane highway; the Nairobi Syokimau Railway service was commissioned by president Kibaki I November 2012 to de-congest jogoo road.

This attracted thousands of people coming to prospect for minerals and seek for employment. By the end of 19thc, the population of Johannesburg had risen to 166,000 people. **Factors which contributed to the growth of Johannesburg ** a) Existence of minerals/discovery of gold in the Witwatersrand which resulted in a rush of people to the area. b) Availability of energy i.e. coal which was an important source of energy to the mines, industries and homes. c) Excellent location in the veldt/plain making construction work easy. d) Its proximity to Vaal River which supplied plenty of water to industries and domestic use. e) Area around Johannesburg is fertile and therefore agriculturally productive ensuring steady supply of food. f) The organization of the city council which has ensured that financial control and revenue collection is effectively and the city able to manage its growth problems. g) Government policy of supporting industrial development. This has favored its growth. Functions of Johannesburg . a) It was a transport and communication centre. The city has a highly develope d network of transport lines since it served the mining industry. In June 2010, it became the first city in Africa to house an electric train service. b) An industrial centre. Its manufacturing functions include mining, metalwork, engineering, diamond cutting, jewellery manufacturing and food processing. c) It is a commercial and financial centre. Many financial institutions such as banks and other commercial and trading activities attract a lot of traders. It is also a major shopping centre in South Africa. d) It is an educational centre, housing institutions like the University of Witwatersrand, teacher training colleges and other key institutions. **Problems facing Johannesburg** a) The problem of racial segregation. The black Africans who work around Johannesburg were often treated almost as slaves though they were the majority in the country. ----- 191 ### b) Poor housing. Most of the workers who work in and around Johannesburg live in shanties, mainly because of underpayment c) Unemployment has continued to increase with the growing population. Though the city is an industrial town, her industries have failed to provide sufficient employment for all people in the town. d) Rural-urban migration by the job seekers causing overcrowding in the city. e) A large gap between the affluent class, especially the Europeans and the poor people who majorly are African f) Congestion on roads caused by an increase in the number of vehicles on the roads while the road network is not expanding. g) The city has the highest crime rate in the world. h) Inadequate social services including health services and educational facilities. i) Water shortage caused by the high rate of expansion in the town and the depletion ofwater reservoirs. j) The rate of HIV/AIDS infection is very high. **Solutions to the problems ** a) The apartheid regime was ended in 1994 thus ending the problem of racial segregation. b) The new government of South Africa is trying to come up with better housing estates. c) Crime has been contained by creating more job opportunities. d) The government is sensitizing, through NGOs and GOs, civilians about responsible sex as a measure to curb the spread of HIV/AIDS **Impact of agrarian development on urbanization in Africa** a) The practice of agriculture forced people to adopt a sedentary lifestyle. Such settlement formed the basis of the earliest urban centres. b) Early agriculture led to specialization. The areas where the potters, iron smelters weavers and fishermen did their work grew up into urban centres c) From the agrarian revolution, there was adequate food for town dwellers. **On urbanization in Europe ** a) The revolution in Europe led to a landless society who moved to urban centres seeking employment. This promoted urban growth. b) Increased agricultural production ensured steady supply of raw materials to the new industries hence further growth of the industries. c) Agricultural expansion meant the big farmers had to borrow loans hence the expansion of banking facilities in towns leading to further growth. d) Agricultural produce entering and leaving countries had to be handled in ports hence towns near coasts grew. Impacts of industrial revolution on urbanization in the world. ----- 192 ### a) The establishment of many factories drew many people to towns in search of employment, the mining industry attracted many people to work in the mines. The mining camps soon grew up into towns. b) Industrial revolution stimulated innovations in transport and communication ensuring faster movement of people to further expansion of trading towns. c) The growth of industry has led to expansion of port towns to handle increased manufactured goods for export and raw material for factories e.g. growth of London, Budapest, Marseilles, Lagos and Cairo. d) The use of machines replaced human labour and caused layoffs. Those who lost their jabs sometimes became a security risk hence an increase in crime. e) The many inefficient factories that came up after the revolution have caused massive air and water pollution. f) Rural urban migration has exerted pressure on the limited resources and services the towns can offer. **Consequences of urbanization on European communities during the 19 [th] c. ** a) Rural urban migration by Africans looking for better opportunities led to increased crime levels and insecurity for the Europeans. b) Air pollution which also affected them. c) Creation of employment for the Europeans in the developing industries. d) Creation of markets for agricultural produce due to increased urban population. e) Europeans were deprived of cheap African labour as most of them moved to urban areas. **ORGANIZATION OF AFRICAN SOCIETIES ** Despite the high amount of decentralization of African communities in the 19 [th] c, there existed a few who were centralized. For example, Buganda, Ethiopia, Buganda, Asante, Mandinka, Ndebele and shona among others. **The Baganda** These were a Bantu speaking people of the Buganda kingdom in Uganda. The Buganda Chiefdom had emerged as early as 140 AD as a subject state of Bunyoro- Kitara Kingdom **Origin of Buganda kingdom ** The kingdom was crystallized around the counties of busiro, kyadondo and mawakota. Traditions also state that the first king and creator of Buganda kingdom was Kintu who came from the east around Mount Elgon region. It is believed he entered Buganda with 13 clans. Other theories attribute Bugandas origin to the Luo. That Kimera Kato, a brother of Isingoma Rukidi Mpunga the founder of the luo-babito dynasty in Bunyoro was the founder of Buganda.It is also probable that Buganda might have been one of the many kingdoms founded by the bachwezi- the demi-gods.Other clans of Buganda are believed to have come from the ssese islands. **Factors that led to the growth of a strong Buganda Kingdom ** ----- 193 ### a) Good strong and able leaders like Kkyabagu, junju and Suna etc. who propelled it to prosperity by uniting the people and restructuring the existing administration system. b) Buganda Was small and a compact kingdom and therefore easy to manage. Other kingdoms like Bunyoro-Kitara were too large with a class system. c) Its strategic location in a defensible position in the lake region was of great advantage over her rivals Toro and Bunyoro. She lay next to Lake Victoria giving her defence, communication and transport advantage. On the east were small states of Toro and Ankole who posed no threat. d) Good climate and fertile soils in the region. This enabled successful growing of Bananas, their staple crop. e) The contacts with the Waswahili enabled her to gain riches and weapons/guns. f) The kingdom had a strong loyal army to defend it from her warring neighbors. The Kabaka even possessed a royal navy that kept guard over Lake Victoria. g) Existence of a centralized government making the kingdom cohesive. h) The ganda traditions allowing the kabaka to marry from every clan as means of ensuring unity. i) System of labour organization. The tradition demanded that farming be done by women while the men were involved in other activities such as politics, carpentry, war, bark cloth making and smithing j) The wars of conquest which finally led to her expansion. How Buganda kingdom was governed . Buganda kingdom had a highly centralized monarchy under the kabaka who enjoyed absolute powers. His position was hereditary. The Kabakas Court was the nerve centre of the Baganda community. All symbols of Royal authority were kept in the court. E.g. the throne (Namulondo), royal Drums, spears and stools. The kabaka was the political leader of the Baganda kingdom. He was the Head of the traditional religion lubale/ he was the chief priest. He was the judicial head and the final court of appeal/he was the supreme judge. The was the commander-in- -chief of the armed forces.He appointed senior government officials and dismissed them when need arose. He controlled trade. The capital of the kingdom was at Mengo, where the palace, Lubiri, was situated. The kabaka appointed senior government officials and dismissed them when need arose. Forexample, he appointed the katikiro, omulamuzi and omuwanika i.e. prime minister, chief justice and treasurer respectively who assisted him in administration. He also appointed mugema (the senior most chief among the Bataka), Musenero (the chief Butler) and Mfumbiro (the chief baker).The katikiro was in charge of organizing tax collecting and public works. He planned wars in the Kabakas name. He had to protect the kabaka during war. He was responsible of informing the kabaka of the decisions he made on court issues. Below him were omulamuzi (chief justice) and omuwanika (treasurer) who were directly responsible to the kabaka.The Bataka were minor chiefs in charge of clans, guarded land, collected taxes, carried out conscription to the army and ----- 194 ### presented the page boys to the kabaka.Peasants served under chief and were to fight in wars. Slaves (badus) served the king chiefs in their homesteads. Pages and bagalagala (sons of chiefs and other nobles) served the kabaka too.To ensure unity the kabaka married from principal clans.There was a Lukiko which advised the kabaka and was the final court. It comprised 69 members who were nominated by the kabaka (positions were not hereditary). It made laws and debated issues concerning the kingdom. It also directed tax collection and planned expenditure, it acted as the final court of appeal, and it represented the needs of the people to the kabaka. It helped the kabaka in general administration. It checked the activities of government. **Political organization ** The kingdom was divided into counties (Ssaza) and sub-counties. Each county was under Ssaza chiefs whose position was hereditary initially before the kabaka began to appoint them as a means of making them accountable. Each Ssaza was divided into a gombolola headed by a gombolola chief, who maintained law and order and collected taxes. The gombololas were further divided into smaller sub-divisions called miluka each under a miluka chief. The miluka was divided into kisoko. The smallest administrative unit among the Baganda was the village council. The Abatongole appointed by the kabaka, governed the vassal states **Social organization of the Baganda** The kingdom was divided in social classes with the royal family occupying the top of the hierarchy, then ruling class, the chiefs who ruled over the peasants or commoners known as bakopi.At the bottom of the social class were the slaves (Badu) who were acquired mainly through raids on neighbouring communities such as Busoga, Toro and Bunyoro. The Baganda believed in the existence of many gods some of whom included; a) Katonda, God the creator whose home was in heaven. The prayers to him were done every morning and were conducted by the head of the homestead. b) Kibuuka, God of war and thunder. c) Mukasa, goddess of fertility who was worshipped in order to bless the nation with more children, livestock and a bumper harvest. d) Kiwanuka, god of lightning. e) Nawagenyi, goddess of Drought. The community also believed in the existence of ancestral spirits whose main responsibilitywas to maintain discipline in the clans since the spirits were believed to restrict their influence to close relatives. Balubaale were the spirits of people who had supernatural powers and were consulted through prophets or mediums. The Baganda had religious leaders, led by the kabaka, then the mediums, prophets, and medicine people.There also existed sorcerers called Balopo who were feared since they could cause harm to people.The Baganda religion however was greatly undermined by c. the influx of the Waswahili and ArabMuslims into the community in the 19 [th] ----- 195 ### The Baganda society was polygamous. For example, the kabaka was required to marry from all clans to maintain links in the society.There was division of labour according to sex. Women tilled the land while men engaged in warfare, built houses, and made clothes from bark-cloth.As a form of rite of passage, the Baganda went through formal education that trained them in their rites. **Economic organization. ** a) Bugandas economy was based on agriculture and the production of the staple food bananas (matoke). b) The baganda also kept large herds of livestock. The bahima herded Kabakas herds. From the livestock, they obtained milk and meat to supplement their diet. c) The baganda conducted raids on their neighbours like the Buddu, Busoga and Kyaggwe through which they acquired slaves, livestock and ivory. d) There was division of labour, women worked in fields while men were involved in construction of roads, bark cloth making, smithing and war. e) The kingdom was deeply involved in local, regional and international trade. They exchanged bark cloth and beans for cattle from their neighbours. She exchanged slaves and hides for guns, glassware and cotton cloth from coastal traders. f) The baganda practiced iron working, producing hoes for cultivation and weapons for defence. Some of these items formed their trade items. Rich iron deposits were also acquired by waging wars against their neighbours. g) Handcraft was an important activity and included basketry and pottery. h) The textile industry consisted of bark cloth manufacture. i) Salt mining was an important activity. j) Fishing on Lake Victoria k) The baganda also engaged in some hunting activities to acquire ivory. **SHONA ** The Shona were a Bantu-speaking people who comprised the Rozwi, Kore kore, Zezuru and Manyika sub-groups. The first stone buildings in Zimbabwe are believed to have been the work of the Shona. Their capital was at Mapungubwe, south of the confluence of the Limpopo and Shashi rivers.About 1450 AD, the Rozwi Groups gained dominance and established a centralized political system. They established the Mwene Mutapa Empire which ruled until the time of the Ngoni invasion in the 1830s. **Political organization of the Mwene Mutapa Empire ** The emperor was the head of the state and government. Succession of authority was hereditary. Important emperors included Chikura, Nyatsimba, Mutota and Matope. Religion played a role in government and united people. The emperor was a semi- divinereligious leader, a military leader and the chief priest. He was the only one who could communicate with the spirits of the ancestors. It was believed that when Mwene Mutapa died, he became a Mudzimu and automatically qualified to be worshipped as a national ancestral spirit.The ancestral spirits (Vadzimu) communicated peoples problems ----- 196 ### to god.Religion also influenced laws.The priests were used as spies and link between the emperor and the people. Another unifying factor in the kingdom was the royal fire. It was from the continuous fire that each vassal chief carried a flame to his chiefdom that he kept burning as a symbol of national unity.The empire was divided into provinces namely Guruhaswa, Mbire, Utere, Banua, and Manyika each headed by a lesser chief. The most important chiefs in the empire sent their sons, with tribute in form of cattle, gold, slaves and ivory, each year to pay homage to the Mwene Mutapa as goodwill ambassadors.There was a standing army of warriors which was used for defence and expansion of the kingdom. Revenue from trade was used to run the army and sustain the empire.The position of importance held by Mwene Mutapa led to the creation of a complex Style of administration around him. The government officials included the court steward, treasurer, commander-in-chief of the army and Mbokurumme (kings sister-in-law). Others were the queen mother, the emperors sister and nine principal wives, the doorkeeper and the chief cook and head drummer. At the lower level were the lesser chiefs who paid tribute to the king by providing cattle, labour and agricultural produce. Economic organization of the Shona . The Shona country enjoyed ample rainfall with fertile soils thus enabling them to engage in the following economic activities; a) The Shona were mixed farmers who cultivated crops and reared animals. Among the agricultural produce were corn, millet, ground nuts, beans, watermelons, tomatoes, fruits and cabbages. b) The Shona practiced trade, specifically long distance trade between them and the Arabs and Waswahili at sofala. They gave Gold and ivory for cotton cloths, glassware, copper items, guns, daggers and knives. c) They were skillful hunters. They hunted elephants for their ivory which was in great demand. They also gathered wild honey and wild fruits to supplement their diet. d) The shona were skilled craftsmen who made articles like spears, hoes and knives. Others were goldsmiths who used gold to decorate. They also practiced cloth making from wild cotton and bark fibres. **Social organization of the Shona ** Among the shona, Mwene Mutapa was regarded as a divine king and was therefore venerated. When he was well, the nation was also well.The shona religion was based on the Mwari cult. They believed in the all powerful God, Mwari/Murungu. His worship was done through several priests who were mainly produced by the Rozwi clan. The priests presided over religious functions in sacred places of worship, shrines where sacrifices were offered.The shona believed in ancestral spirits. They had two kinds of spirits, Vadzimu or family spirits and Mhondoro or clan spirits. The spirits communicated though an intermediary, Svikiro, a departed family or clan spirit.The shona had a national spirit Chamiruka who settled clan disputes and also protected the people against injustice ----- 197 ### in the government.The shona had a kinship system which was patrilineal (inheritance through the father). The shona were divided into clans whose names were coined from animals like leopard, monkey, elephant etc. it was a taboo to consume meat from such animals.They were a polygamous community which was viewed as a means to enable the family to have enough members to provide labour.The shona lived in stone buildings. Their skill in masonry is associated with the ruins of Mapungubwe found in Zimbabwe. **The Asante ** The Asante are one of the Akan-speaking peoples who occupy the southern part of Ghana, west Africa. By the middle 18 [th] c, the Asante/Ashanti had established the most dominant state in modern Ghana. **Origin of the Asante Kingdom ** The empire Developed in the 1670s. It was formed as a result of competition for gold fields in the Akan forestland. In the 1500s: Akan peoples came into contact with Portuguese traders. Wealthy owners of the Akan gold mines begin to trade gold for Benin slaves with the Portuguese. In the 1670s, Osei Tutu was a military leader and head of the Oyoko clan of the Akan peoplesTook control over a trade center near Kumasi and established this as his capital city. This happened after his maternal uncle Obiri Yeboa, the leader of the Oyoko clan was killed during war.A company of Akwamu troops are believed to have been instrumental in facilitating Osei Tutus rise to power. He conquered the neighboring chiefdoms and took control of their trade. He took the title of ASANTEHENE. He Collected taxes from the chiefdoms on profits from the gold mines. He built a standing army by demanding that chiefdoms provide soldiers. He sought the support of religious leaders throughout the region. For example, a priest of the shrine of the war god (Otutu0 called Anokye in Akwapim played a role in ensuring that Osei Tutu became the Asantehene.). He established the GOLDEN STOOL as a symbol of his rightful rule. **The Golden Stool ** Akan peoples become Asante (Ashanti) By 1700, Osei Tutu controlled most of the gold fields of the Akan forestland.Osei Tutu was succeeded by Opoku Ware (1717-1750). During his rule, he will extend the Asante kingdom to include most of what is today present-day Ghana. The new city-states now included Kumasi, Juaben, Bekmai, Mampon, Kokofu and Nsula.Opuku Ware will participate in the slave trade with the Europeans, selling war captives and growing very wealthy. Asante were one of the last great kingdoms to fall to the Europeans in the late 19 [th] century. **Factors that led to the rise and growth of the Asante Empire ** a) The Asante had a strong economy based on agriculture. Both food and cash crops like Kola nuts were cultivated. This helped to increase the population. ----- 198 ### b) The Asante had capable political leaders they included Obiri Yeboa (1670-1678), Osei Tutu (1680-1717) who unified the people through the Golden stool that he created and Opuku Ware (1720- 1750). c) The several city-states that emerged around Kumasi supported each other. Most of them were related by the fact that they originated from the same Oyoko clan. d) The growth of the Trans- Atlantic slave trade brought a lot of wealth to the Asante people. The wealth was instrumental in the prosperity of the Kingdom. e) The centralized political system under the Asantehene provided stability. f) The Odwira festival that was held annually helped to make the state more cohesive. g) The Asante were brave and proud people, and the need to free themselves from the oppressive rule of Denkyira, their former masters, motivated them to create a strong state. **Political organization ** The Asante had a centralized political system. The Nucleus of the Asante Empire was five citystates of Kumasi, Dwaben, Bekwai, Kokofu and Nsula.The empire comprised of three parts, namely Kumasi (Metropolitan Asante), Amatoo states and Provincial Asante. Each part had its own system of administration though the three cooperated in some areas. Kumasi was directly ruled by the Asantehene and was recognized as Kumasihene. **Metropolitan Asante ** These were the five states that lay 35 miles around Kumasi and which recognized the Asantehene as the supreme authority. The government of the metropolitan Asante consisted the confederacy council made of the Kings (Omanhene) of the various states and presided over by the Asantehene. The Asante Union provides a good example of a federal system of government. All the states within the metropolitan Asante paid tax to the Asantehene which was used to pay for the administration and form an army.Each of the five states had its own state council that made important decisions. Each also had its own Black stool that symbolized their power over the state .The omanhenes were expected to give the right of declaring war on another Omanhene, attended the annual Odwira festival (to pay allegiance to Asantehene, settle disputes and honor the dead), grant own subjects the right to appeal to the high court set up for the union of the capital and recognize the right of Asantehene to impose national levies.Neither the Asantehene nor the Omanhene enjoyed dictatorial powers.The kingdom had an army that was divided into several wings. Though overall leadership of the army was provided by the Asantehene, each Omanhene command his own forces. The Asantehene was deputized by Mamphohene who automatically take over army leadership whenever the Asantehene was unavailable.Among the Asante, there was compulsory military service for all able- bodied men in the empire (a system borrowed from the Akwamu).The Asantehene established a national festival called the Odwira festival during which all The Omanhene assembled in Kumasi to show their loyalty to the Asantehene, to honor the deadand to solve disputes amongst themselves. It also enhanced unity amongst the Asante states. ----- 199 ### The golden stool, an idea invented by a priest called Okomfo Anokye (he claimed it came from the sky in 1695) during the reign of Osei Tutu, made the office of the Asantehene acceptable. It was a source of unity as it bound together the Asante states since they all recognized its sacredness. **Provincial Asante ** It comprised all the states conquered by the Asante in the 18 [th] century (subject states). Such people were represented in the army and paid taxes to the Asantehene. Osei Tutu appointed two consuls who resided in each subject state to supervise their affairs. An efficient bureaucracy was established in each o the provincial Asante states with the Asantehene appointing senior officials directly himself **Social organization ** The Kingdom was composed of many communities who spoke the Akan language. The clans that made up the Akan speakers included the Akyem, Kwahu, the Fante, the Wassa, the Assin and the Akwapem. All these communities shared the same social institutions like the forty-day calendar, same marriage and naming rites. The basic social unit was the clan.They had a matrilineal system of inheritance. The birthright of each family passed through the mother from one generation to the other. The practiced polygamy marriage due to wealth and comfort in society and prohibited inter clan (paternal and maternal clans) marriages. The Odwira festival helped unite the society besides the golden stool. The Asante was socially stratified into social classes e.g. the rulers, rich, peasant farmers and slaves. The Asantehene and his family comprised the royal family together with the Omanhene. The saves among the Asante were majorly war captives. Some of the female slaves could be elevated to concubines and later become entitled to some rights.They believed in magic and superstition and also worshipped gods and goddesses i.e. they were polytheists. Their supreme creator was Nyame (Nyambe).They believed in their ancestors as mediators between the people and God (gods). The Odwira festival was held annually to honour ancestors and solves my disputes. They offered sacrifices to their gods/ancestors including human sacrifices.The Asante hence was considered semi-divine being and highly regarded. Creative arts like dancing music, sculpture were highly respected in society. **Economic organization of the Asante ** Being located in an area rich in terms of land fertility forest resources, mineral resources and rainfall, the Asante Empire thrived economically in the following ways. a) Being located at the point of convergence of the trans-Atlantic trade routes, the Asante people participated in the trade providing gold, slaves and ivory in exchange for cotton, cloth, guns and gunpowder. They also provided middlemen and porters during the trade. b) The Asante practiced agriculture, growing crops like yams, vegetables and fruits. They also kept livestock like cattle. c) The community practiced gathering of Kola nuts and hunting for game meat from the forestto supplement their diet. ----- 200 ### d) They practiced iron working and made crafts such as baskets and pots The Asante community however became a victim of the same economic wars it waged against her neighbours especially the Fante and Denkyira. In 1873, the British came to the aid of the Fante thus greatly weakening the Asante power. **Reasons for the collapse of the Asante Empire. ** a) The type of political organization in the kingdom did not encourage cohesion. Some states in the provincial Asante had no attachment to the golden stool/were semi - independent/ condition of a state within a state. b) Leadership struggle between the Asante and dwaben; a neighboring rival of Asantes state. c) Civil wars /Constant rebellions from the conquered states /wars with other tribes e.g. war with the afante. d) British interference in the Asante affairs through the 19 [th] c. they had a burning desire to destroy the Asante empire and colonize the region.. they even supported dwaben in her war against Asantehene e) Periodic interference with trade and trade routes as a result of wars weakened the financial position of the empire i.e. Abolition of slave trade as a major source of income. f) The Anglo-Asante wars which the British won led to final destruction of the empire. **CONSTITUTIONS AND CONSTITUTION MAKING ** The term constitution refers to a set of agreed principles and rules which state the structure and powers of a government.The constitution of Kenya is a supreme law that binds all people and all state organs at national and county level. It outlines the structure of government, defines the powers and prerogatives of the head of state, states the compositions, functions and powers of parliament, states the compositions of the executives and outlines the duties and rights of the citizens. Constitutions vary in various countries depending on different experiences and their form is determined by the following. a) The historical background of a country b) Geographical factors. For example the numerous islands of Japan must be catered for in their constitution c) Religious beliefs of the people. Some countries have the Islamic Sharia law in their constitution e.g Libya and Somali d) Race composition of a country. For example, in South Africa the apartheid racial policy had been included in their constitution. **Functions of a constitution ** a) The constitution provides the legal ground from which the laws of the country are made. b) It spells out the powers of government and its relationship to the gove rned. c) It spells out the rights and duties of all citizens. It also provides the options a citizen has, legally, if those rights and freedoms are violated. ----- 201 ### **Types of constitutions ** 1. Written constitution . This is a constitution in which the basic principles concerning the organization of government, powers of its various agencies and rights of the subjects are consciously written down in one document.The first country to adopt a written constitution was USA after she attained political independence from Britain on 4 [th] July 1776. France adopted it in 1791following the French revolution of 1789. The primary objective of these adoptions was to include the rights of the citizens to avoid abuse by those in power. Other countries with written constitutions include many European, African, Latin American and Asian countries. Kenya also has a written constitution. **Characteristics of a written constitution ** a) It acts as a standard of reference to which the acts of the government of the day may always be compared. b) It is a rigid document that cannot be altered easily. c) It is only amended through a clearly spelt out procedure which is followed to the letter. d) There must be a special body entrusted by the legislature with the work of drafting the constitution. e) Once drafted the constitution must get the approval of the legislature. **Advantages of a written constitution** a) Since the procedures of amending a constitution are clearly spelled out, it is not easy for politicians or other interest groups in the society to alter it. b) In case of a crisis, the constitution provides very clear guidelines on the procedures to be followed, thus restoring stability in the country. c) Since a written constitution is rigid, it therefore recognizes that there are fundamentals in a state, e.g rights of citizens, powers and duties of the president, which should never be easily changed. Change can only be done after adequate consideration. d) It is fundamental to a newly formed nation so as to take off in an orderly and organized manner. e) A written constitution is important to ensure that the identity of the various groups are preserved and maintained in a country with diverse racial groupings, religion and ethnic composition. f) Since it is arrived at after thorough and careful consideration by all, it therefore unites the people in the nation as it would have acquired recognition and acceptance from the majority of the citizens. **Disadvantages of a written constitution. ** a) Due to its rigidity, it can fail to respond to changing circumstances and can therefore easily become obsolete. ----- 202 ### b) A written constitution tends to make the judiciary too powerful as it I the only body that interprets the document. Where the executive and the legislature control the judiciary, the constitution can easily be manipulated. c) Some written constitutions are too detailed and rarely understood by the ordinary citizens. d) The procedure for amending the constitution is slow and costly. This causes delays which could lead to civil disorder in a society. **2. Unwritten constitution ** This is a constitution where the fundamental principles of the organization and powers of the government are not contained in one document but rather in several scattered documents to add to the customs of a country. For example, the British constitution. **Sources of British constitution ** a) Statutes. This refers to an Act of Parliament. Examples of statutes that comprise the British constitution are; ~ Act of Union with Scotland of 1707 that determined the territorial boundaries within which the United Kingdoms constitution operates. ~ Parliament Act of 1911 that governs the relationship between the House of Commons and the House of Representatives ~ The Reform Acts of 1832 and 1834 which determine succession to the throne. b) Customs. This refers to ancient or traditional practices or the common law. For example, the first born inheriting the throne. c) Laws of precedents. Past accepted principles may be applied to a new set of facts in a judgment and this may eventually become part of the law of the land. d) Customs of parliament. House procedures including standing orders and other regulations are part of the British constitution. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Cheloti 2012-2013 82 e) Historical documents. The following two Important documents form part of the British constitution; ~ The Magna Carta (1215AD) that contained the promises by the England King that he would not levy taxes outside the three legal feudal taxes without the consent of the legal counsel. ~ The Petition of Right (1628) in which King Charles I agreed not to levy taxes unless through the Act of Parliament. f) The Conventions and Practices that have become respected over the years are also part of the British constitution. **Advantages of unwritten constitution ** a) It is flexible and adaptable to changing circumstances in the society. This is especially valuable during periods of rapid socio-economic and political changes. b) It is indigenous and therefore suited for a state. c) It can be changed by ordinary legislative process. ----- 203 ### d) It provides continuity with the nations traditions and is therefore accepted and respected by the people. **Disadvantages of an unwritten constitution** a) It gives the courts too much work in handling matters as they search for constitutional principles not only in judicial decisions but in different statutes and customs. b) Because of the nature of the unwritten constitution, it is not easy to protect the rights of people effectively as the fundamentals of the state are not recorded in a few or a single document. c) An unwritten constitution tends to be vague and indefinite as compared to the written constitution. d) An unwritten constitution presupposes that the people are politically conscious and alert and will ensure that their rights and liberties are respected. **Features/qualities of a good constitution. ** a) Definiteness; it must depict clear intelligence and one which facilitates thinking. It must define its content clearly. b) It should be comprehensive/ it must be short but inclusive of all the issues involved in government operation. c) Should be durable and elastic/ it should neither be too rigid to amend or change nor so flexible as to encourage interference of its basic principle. d) Should be able to protect fundamental rights and freedom of citizen/a bill of rights must be provided for in the constitution, showing the extent to which the government can interfere with individual rights. e) Amendment procedure must be stated clearly. f) The constitution must be representative of the diverse social and political spectrum of the people. g) It must exhibit supremacy of the people/ it must make the will of the people as the basis of government. h) It must stipulate the choice of government through free and fair elections i) Statement of national wealth. /It must have a clear statement on how resources are to be managed and how wealth created is to be distributed.Constitution making process in Kenya in pre-colonial, colonial and post colonial eras. **Pre- colonial era** The rules and regulation that formed the constitutional basis of pre-colonial communities in Kenya were mainly formulated by the councils of elders and then handed down from generation to generation.The constitution was unwritten constitution guiding only the political, economic and socio cultural activities **Colonial Era (1885- 1960) ** Kenya was under the British colonial rule after the Berlin Conference upto 1963. The constitutional developments in the country were greatly influenced by the settlement of immigrant communities like the white settlers, the Asians and Christian missionaries. ----- 204 ### These communities competed with the Africans for control of economic resources and political power.The turning point in Kenyas pre-colonial constitutional developments was the outbreak of Mau Mau war and subsequent declaration of a State Of Emergency on 20 [th] October 1952 by Sir Evelyn Barring. When the colonial secretary Oliver Lyttelton visited Kenya in 1954, he proposed the following constitutional reforms. ~ Establishment of a multi-racial council of ministers representing the three races setting ground for two Indian and one African minister (B. A Ohanga became the first African Minister) ~ It Proposed direct representation of Africans in the LEGCO ~ Lifting the ban on African political parties/district associations. In 1958, a new constitution was proposed by Lennox Boyd. The constitution led to increased number of elected Africans in the legislative council (from 8 to 14). It led to introduction of multi-racial representation in the legislative council. It led to the increase of the number of African ministers to two. The African elected members demanded for a constitutional conference culminating into the independence constitution. The independence constitution (1960-1962) The first Lancaster House Conference (1960) Attended by all members of Legco and two nominated members, the conference received the following demands; a) Africans demanded for true democracy, where one man would have one vote. b) The Arabs wanted to retain the ten-mile coastal strip, while Somalis wanted reunification with Somalia. c) Michael Blundell, representing a section of Europeans demanded for a multi-racial government while Captain Briggs representing the white extremists demanded for creation of provinces along racial lines. All these proposal were moderated by the British government The period after the first Lancaster House conference witnessed a lot of differences among Africans and among other races. Among the Africans, the differences culminated into the formation of KANU in March 1960 at Kiambu with James Gichuru as president and KADU in Ngong Town with Ronald Ngala as the president.The main difference between KADU and KANU was that while KANU was advocating gor a unitary government, KADU wanted a federal system.The second Lancaster House conference (1962).When KANU refused to form government despite winning the elections, demanding for the release of Jomo Kenyatta, KADU formed a rather minority government that was heavily dominated by the colonial officials. Such a government was rejected by most people thus creating instability that led to the British Authorities calling for the second Lancaster House Conference. The following important issues were discussed ; a) The future of the coastal strip that belonged to the sultan prior to colonialism. ----- 205 ### b) The future of North Eastern Province(North Frontier District) c) Security of the minority. The participants in the formulation of the independence constitution were representatives of various political parties: - Paul Ngei (APP), KADU and KANU. Others were representatives of the Asian and European communities.The 1962 conference settled for a federal structure with a strong central government.A coalition government was formed briefly but when the 1962 constitution was promulgated, it was followed by a general election in May 1963.The third and final conference in 1963 resulted in the drafting and adoption of Kenya's first independent Constitution by the British Parliament The 1963 constitution established a parliamentary system with executive powers vested in a cabinet headed by a Prime Minister, The Queen of England remained Head of State. **Independence (1963) ** Kanu won the May elections and Kenya Attained internal self-government with Jomo Kenyatta as the first Prime Minister on 1 [st] June 1963. Kenya attained full independence on 12 [th] December 1963 when the Queen ceased to be the head of state.Kenya has been using the Independence Constitution upto August 2010 though with so many amendments. **Main provisions of the independence constitution of Kenya ** a) The independence constitution provided for a regional/majimbo government with each of the seven regions having a regional assembly and president. The boundaries of the regions were given protection in the constitution. b) It also provided for a bicameral parliament consisting of the senate and the house of representatives/upper house and lower house. The lower house comprised 117 elected members and 12 special members. The senate comprised 41 members representing the 41 administrative districts and one representing Nairobi city.Though the senate was subordinate to the House of Representatives, it had powers to authorize declaration of a state of emergence, 65% of the senators were required to approve the amendment of constitution. Also all Bills required approval of both houses. c) The constitution stipulated that the Prime Minister (appointed by the governor) was to be head of Government and Queen the Head of State, represented by the Governor General. The powers of the governor were defence of the country, foreign affairs, internal security and approval of legislation. d) The constitution recommended a multiparty system of government and the party with the majority of seats forming the government. e) It contained the Bill of Rights, which protected the individuals rights. The Bill of rights was modeled on the European convention on Human Rights and Fundamental freedoms. f) The constitution provided for an elaborate scheme to protect the minority rights. The minorities in this case were the Europeans, Asians and some indigenous communities. ----- 206 ### g) Independent Electoral commission was set up consisting of the speakers of the two houses and a nominee of the Prime Minister. Also it comprised nominees representing the regions. This was to ensure impartiality and honesty in elections. h) The constitution provided for an independent and impartial judiciary to ensure justice and prevent corruption. Judges were accorded security of tenure which was extended to the Attorney General, the governments principal legal advisor. i) It provided for public service commission. The aim was insulate the civil service recruitment and promotions from abuse and corruption. j) An independent land board. **Post colonial Era (1963-2010). ** From independence to Mult-party democracy period (1963-1991) Like many former British colonies, Kenya started off with a west Minister system of government.The first Constitutional amendment in independent Kenya was in 1964. Kenya became a republic and the executive became presidential. The senate and regions were also abolished.A Constitutional review in June 1982 officially transformed Kenya into a one-party state.A parliamentary act in December 1991 repealed the one-party system provisions of the constitution and effectively established a multiparty system. The period after 1992 was influenced by Global issues like the decline of the cold war, collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989 and the intensified struggle for democracy all over the world.In 1997, the Inter Party Parliamentary Group (IPPG) was formed with membership from the Opposition and KANU mps. The aim was to come up with minimal constitutional reforms to level the ground before the 1997 general elections The following reforms were approved ; a) The KBC shall observe fairness in providing balanced all-inclusive political views in the news coverage. b) Membership of the Electoral Commission to be reviewed to accommodate the interest of the opposition. c) Registration of Parties would be done without unnecessary delay. d) The powers of the chiefs that would likely interfere with political activity at local level be contained. e) The police Act be amended to provide for politically impartial police force f) To repeal a number of laws restricting civil and political rights, ad abolition of the offence of sedition In 1997, a constitutional review commission, called the Constitution of Kenya Review Commission (CKRC), was established to provide civic education, seek public input and prepare a constitution. In October 2000, parliament passed a Bill entrenching the CKRC into the independence constitution. It was now headed by Professor Yash Pal Ghai and comprised 15 commissioners. In June 2001, the CKRC was expanded to include other groups like the Peoples commission following the amendment of the 1997 Constitution of Kenya Review Act.The CKRC act specified a 2 year time frame for ----- 207 ### completion of the review process.However, its activities were marred by controversy in 2002 and the ultimate dissolving of parliament in October 2002 by president Moi. He even attempted to dissolve the commission, thanks to its being entrenched in the independence constitution.When the NARC government took over power in 2003, the review exercise was reviewed. The National Constitutional Conference was convened at Bomas of Kenya and came up with what came to known as the Bomas constitution. However the political elite did not support the Bomas .In 2005, Parliament amended the constitution of Kenya Review Act to allow the Attorney General to come up with the Proposed New Constitution, popularly known as the Wako . The constitution was ultimately rejected by Kenyans at the constitutional referendum in 2005 because of disagreements amongst various stakeholders.In December 2007, Kenyans participated in the general elections that were followed by Post Election Violence caused by the controversy that surrounded the results of the elections. Steps towards realization of a new constitution in Kenya from 2008 . a) On 28 February 2008 The National Accord and Reconciliation Act (NARA) was signed by President Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga .Agenda No 4 of this arrangement was a new process to finalize the long awaited constitution of Kenya The main provisions of the National Accord were: ~ Establishment of a grand coalition government with two parties; PNU and ODM sharing power. ~ Raila Odinga was to become Kenyas second Prime minister after the position was created in the accord arrangement ~ Two deputy Prime Minister Positions would be filled by the PNU and ODM parties respectively. ~ Provision for An expanded cabinet with the two parties being accorded slots as per their proportion in the house. b) In 2008 the Constitution of Kenya Review Act 2008 was passed and a Committee of Experts (CoE) was established as the main technical constitutional review organ to drive the process. c) The CoE was chaired by Nzamba Kitonga, the deputy chair was Ms Atsango Chesoni, other members were Ms Njoki Ndung'u, Mr Otiende Amolo,Mr Abdirashid Hussein, Mr Bobby Mkangi, Professor Christina Murray (South Africa), Dr Chaloka Beyani (Zambia) and Dr Frederick Ssempebwav (Uganda). d) 23 February 2009 Members of the CoE were appointed by the President were later on sworn in, e) On 17 November 2009 CoE released the to the public and invited views and comments on the constitution, ----- 208 ### f) By 23rdFebruary 2010. CoE had submitted the final of constitution to the Parliamentary Select Committee. g) On 4thaugust 2010 Kenya held a Constitutional Referendum where the new constitution was overwhelmingly endorsed. h) On 28 [th] august 2010, the new constitution was promulgated and became operational making Kenya the first independent African state to depart from the independence constitutions. **Stages in the constitution making process in Kenya since independence ** 1) Debate over contentious issues. Issues like the entrenchment of section 2A in the independence constitution in 1981 raised concerns among various stake holders and groups. The issue of whether to include the position of Prime Minister or not has also been debated for many years. 2) Collection of public views. The Saitoti commission (the Constitution review commission established by Moi in 1990) had the objective of collecting views of Kenyans concerning how KANU was to operate in the best way possible. In June 2001, the CKRC, chaired by Yash Pal Ghai was mandated to collect views as part of the constitution review process. 3) Civic education. In 2001, the Ghai Commission was mandated and funded to provide civic education. 4) Convening of constitutional conferences. For example, The 2002 National Constitution Conference at Bomas of Kenya and other similar conferences. 5) Drafting of the constitution. This involved both local and international experts who drafted the constitution between 2000 and 2010. This was mainly the work of the Ghai led CKRC and the Committee of experts led by Nzamba Gitonga. 6) The referendum. During the 2005 referendum, the Wako constitution was rejected. In August 2010, another referendum was held and the 2010 proposed New Constitution was approved. 7) Promulgation of the constitution. On 27 [th] of August 2010, President Mwai Kibaki presided over the promulgation of the new constitution of Kenya. **Constitutional Changes in Kenya since independence upto 2010 ** 1) The 1963 independence constitution marked the end of colonial rule and transformed the colony into a dominion. It established a parliamentary system with executive powers vested in a cabinet headed by a Prime Minister, who is appointed by the Queen of England from the majority party in Parliament. The Queen of England remained Head of State as represented by the Governor General who was also the Commander-in-Chief 2) By the 1stamendment Act 28 of 1964, published in November 1964, Kenya became a republic and the executive became presidential. The amendment outlined the criteria to be met by a presidential candidate. It made provision of a Vice President who would be appointed by the president from among the members of parliament. Jaramogi Oginga Odinga became the first occupant of that office. ----- 209 ### 3) By The 2 [nd] amendment Act 38 of 1964 published on 17 [th] December 1964, the senate and regions were also abolished. 4) 3 [rd] amendment Act 14 of 1965, published on 8 [th] June 1965, altered parliamentary Majorityrequired for approval of a state of emergency to only a simple majority from the previous 65%. The term region was replaced with province. The amendment altered the title of Supreme Court. 5) By the 4 [th] amendment Act 16 of 1966, published on 12 [th] April 1966, commonwealth citizens became eligible for Kenyan citizenship. Also any legislator jailed for six months or more or missed to attend eight consecutive parliamentary seatings without the speakers permission had to forfeit his/her parliamentary seat. 6) On 28 [th] April 1966, an amendment was passed, published on 30 [th] April, to compel MPs who defected from sponsoring party, to resign from parliament and seek re-election. This amendment targeted Kenya Peoples Union (KPU) of Jaramogi Odinga that had been formed that year. The amendment was published, tabled, debated, passed and received presidential assent within 48 hours. (it was nicknamed the KPU amendment). 7) In May 1966, the Public Security Act was passed, published on 7thJune 1966, empowering the president to detain a citizen without trial on grounds of being a threat to state security. The president also acquired power to control freedom of the press. 8) In 1966, a constitutional amendment abolished the Bicameral Legislature and replaced it with a Unicameral Legislature, chosen directly by the electorate. The Act was published on 4 [th] January 1967. The voting majority to change the Constitution was lowered to two-thirds of the MPs. 9) In 1968, by the 9 [th] amendment, published on 12 [th] April 1968, the president was empowered to alter provincial and district boundaries. The act abolished the provincial councils and all representatives to the provincial and district boundaries. This marked the end of regionalism. 10) In 1968, by the 10 [th] amendment, Act 45 published on 12 [th] July 1968, the procedure for presidential elections and succession in the event of his death was laid down. Also, that all candidates for a general election should be nominated by a political party.

It is a form of government where political decisions are directly in the hands of the citizens. **Key aspects of a real democracy. ** a) Political aspect. The consent of the governed (expressed directly or indirectly through their elected representatives) must be sought when making political decisions. Public opinion must be given priority in governance. b) Social aspect. Human dignity must be valued at all times. Every individual should be free to organize his own lifestyle, hold and express opinions, enjoy company of others and join associations. c) Economic aspect. All citizens must be provided with equal opportunities. Exploitation of humans by fellow humans should be eliminated. Means of production should be nationalized to reduce inequalities between the rich and the poor. **Types of democracy ** 1) Pure or direct democracy. This is where the people are directly involved and participate in decision-making. Such a democracy has an advantage in that the laws made are easily accepted by all the people since they feel they own the laws. This is common form of democracy in smaller organizations and was also used in ancient Greece. 2) Indirect democracy. This is a type of democracy where citizens exercise their right in decision making not directly as individuals, but through their agreed representatives, elected by the citizens. Parliament acts as the basic institution in this type of democracy. ----- 214 ### The elected may make Appointments of persons to fill other positions like the Cabinet or carry out Nomination (hand-picking of additional representatives to join the elected ones. 3) Constitutional Democracy. This is where democracy is exercised but within the limits of the constitution. The minority rights are guaranteed (freedom of expression, association and worship).It is also referred to as Liberal democracy and is a form of representative democracy. **Merits of democracy ** a) It is founded on the concept of the people and therefore leaders cannot ignore the people from whom they get authority to rule. It is most popular form of government. b) It recognizes equality among all the people without discrimination. It advocates equality before the law and anyone can rise to power regardless of ones background or environment. c) It promotes patriotism or national pride as it urges people to participate in their governance. This reduces chances of a revolution d) It promotes liberty and peace as it advocates for peaceful coexistence. People develop a sense of cooperation. It can also promote international cooperation when extended beyond the borders. e) Since it is based on moral and educative values, democracy helps individuals to develop their personality. It develops initiative of the people and their sense of responsibility. f) Democracy balances the liberty of the individual with the power of the state. Demerits **of democracy** a) Democracy promotes dictatorship by the majority. The majority government by fulfilling the election pledges to please the supporting electorate ends up neglecting the political, social and economic interests of the minority who did not vote for it. b) Democracy encourages class struggle and corruption as only those that possess money can engage in intensive campaigns and get elected due to their influence. Then once elected, they pass laws that protect their interests. c) A democratic government is usually slow and wasteful since consultations have to be made when making a decision. Time and public resources are used in the process of seeking the views of the majority. d) The ethical value of democracy is questionable. It is not easy to find an honest, sincere man of good moral character being elected. e) Democracy may perpetuate incompetence since it is numbers which matter when choosing a leader not the leadership qualities. Where a majority of the electorate is ignorant, they may make poor decision during elections thus promoting incompetence. f) Although democracy is regarded as the rule of the majority, in essence, it is the elected minority who rule. Democracy is therefore as a form of dictatorship by the informed or elected minority. ----- 215 ### **Principles of democracy. ** Principle-basic truth or general law . a) Freedom of speech, debate and enquiry.

This implies the decentralization of economic power so that individuals and communities can be economically empowered to create and control their own wealth. e) Equality before the law.

EUROPEAN INVASION AND THE PROCESS OF COLONIZATION OF **AFRICA ** ***Introduction *** In the last Quarter of the 19 [th] century, Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Belgium and Portugal were in Africa, competing for colonies to boost their social, economic and political standing.They convened the Berlin conference of 1884-1885 (convened by Otto Von Bismarck, the Germany Chancellor) where they shared Africa in Europe without regard to the inhabitants. This is what is termed the invasion of Africa.By 1914, apart from Liberia and Ethiopia, the rest of Africa had been colonized **The scramble and partition of Africa** **Scramble ** It refers to the rushing for something.In the African situation, it meant the rush for and struggle by European powers to acquire various parts of Africa during the 19th century. **Partition ** It refers to the sharing of something. In the African situation, it referred to the actual division of Africa by European powers during the Berlin conference of 1884 - 1885Methods used by Europeans to acquire colonies in Africa. 1) Signing of treaties ; a) Treaty signing with African leaders. ~ The British signed the Maasai Agreements (1904 and 1911), Buganda Agreement of 1900 and the Lewanika-Lochner treaty with Lozi. The royal Niger Company had by 1884, signed 37 treaties through George Goldie, with African leaders in Niger delta, Yorubaland and Gambia. ~ Carl peters signed treaties on behalf of Germany with the chiefs of Uzigua, Ukami, Usagara and ungulu. These treaties facilitated the acquisition of those areas for colonization. b) Treaties signed amongst European powers. These were known as Partition Agreements. For example; ~ The Anglo-Germany Agreements of 1886 and 1890 and Heligoland between the British and the Germans over the sharing of East Africa. ~ The Anglo Italian treaty signed in 1891 between the Italians and the British over possession of Eritrea and the Somali coast. ~ The treaty between the British and Portugal and France in 1890 on the sharing of Madagascar (France) Mozambique and Angola (Portugal). 2) Military conquest/ Use of force . Europeans employed outright war against those societies that resisted their invasion. E.g ----- 227 ### a) The French war against the Mandinka of Samori Toure (1870-1899) and their conquest of western Sudan from Senegal to Chad specifically in the Tukolor Empire, Segu and Masina by 1898. Tunisia, morocco and Algeria were acquired forcefully. b) The British used military force in the Nandi resistance from 1895-1905, the Chimurenga wars involving the Shona/Ndebele against the British, forced acquisition of Egypt and Sudan c) The Germans fought the Maji Maji wars from 1905- 1907. d) The Italians were defeated during their Ethiopian campaign, by Menelik II in the battle of Adowa in 1896. e) The Portuguese forcefully established their rule over Angola, Guinea Bissau and Mozambique. 3) Use of missionaries as frontrunners. The Europeans used missionaries, carrying a bible in one hand and a gun in the other, who tried to convince the Africans to support the European goals. ~ Missionaries manipulated local quarrels and took sides in a view to promote European occupation. For example, in the case of Buganda where we had religious conflicts between Protestants, Muslims, Catholics and Traditionalists. ~ Sometimes the missionaries went to war against each other and against Africans. E.g the Franza-Ingeleza war of 1892 that pitted the Protestants (British) against the Catholics (French). Fredrick Lugards intervention on the side of Protestants set stage for the acquisition of Uganda by the British. ~ In Bulozi, Father Francois Coillard convinced Lewanika of the benefits of British protection. ~ In Nyasaland (Malawi) which was depicted as Livingstones country, missionaries (read role of Scottish missionaries) shaped public opinion in favour of imperial control. **4) Treachery and Divide and rule policy ** ~ The Europeans instigated inter-tribal wars causing some Africans to support them against warring communities. E.g. use of the Wanga against the Luo and the Luhya in Kenya, the Ndebele/shona against the Lozi in Rhodesia. ~ The Italians lied to Menelik II by signing a treaty of friendship but which was published in Italian version indicating that Ethiopia had agreed becoming an Italian protectorate. ~ The Maasai agreement was written in a language that the Lenana never understood. 5) Use of company rule. The British and the Germans used chartered companies to acquire and rule their colonies. For example, the role played by the British South African Company of Cecil Rhodes, Imperial British East African Company of Sir William Mackinnon and the German East Africa Company of Carl Peters. 6) Luring/enticements. The Europeans gave gifts like cloth, weapons tools, drinks etc to African chiefs like Lewanika of the Lozi and Mwanga of Buganda thus luring them into collaboration. ----- 228 ### 7) Diplomatic skills. This involved building relations with African leaders, which were later, used to acquire the areas. The British employed this method in Maasailand and Yorubaland. 8) A blend of diplomacy and force. The British for example initially signed treaties with the Ndebele (Moffat and Rudd treaties), but they fought them during the Ndebele war of 1897. **FACTORS THAT LED TO THE SCRAMBLE FOR COLONIES IN AFRICA** **Economic factors ** ***1. The industrial revolution in Europe. *** a) The revolution led to search for markets for European manufactured goods in Africa resulting in scramble for and partition. b) The need for raw materials. The machines invented processed goods faster than use of hand. The Europeans came to Africa in search of raw materials like cotton, palm oil, copper and iron ore. c) Cheap labour was also readily available in Africa after the abolition of slave trade. d) There was desire by the entrepreneurs to invest excess capital gained from accumulation of profits from industrial investment. Africa provided an avenue for investment. e) Industrial revolution led to improved transport system, which was necessary for effective colonization. f) The military hardware manufactured during the revolution enabled Europeans to conquer African territories. g) The discovery of medicine enabled the Europeans to survive the African conditions and protect themselves from diseases such as malaria, yellow fever etc. h) Those who were rendered unemployed in Europe due to invention of machines had to move to Africa to assist in harnessing raw materials. i) Industrial revolution led to intense rivalry in trade, which was projected, into Africa. 2. Speculation about the availability of deep pockets of minerals in Africa . Gold and Bronze had been items of trade in Africa for centuries. The discovery of Diamond at Kimberly in the 1860s and Gold in the 1870s precipitated their appetite for Africa more. Political reasons . ***1. Unification of Germany after under Otto Von Bismarck after the Franco-*** Prussian war of 1870-71. The rise of Germany upset the balance of power in Europe and there was need to rebalance out through acquisition of colonies in Africa. France for example had to redeem her lost glory (especially after the loss of mineral rich Alsace and Lorraine provinces) by acquiring eight colonies in Africa. 2. The rise of Public opinion in Europe . There was growth of public support towards the acquisition of colonies. With the rise of democracy in European states in the 19 [th] c, it was fatal for any government to ignore public opinion. ----- 229 ### a) For example in 1882, due to public demand, the French assembly was compelled to ratify De Brazzas treaty with Chief Makoko thus creating a French colony in Congo. b) German took over South-West Africa (Namibia), Togo and Cameroon due to what Bismarck termed as public demand. c) In Britain, the public demanded that Britain must maintain her position as the leading colonizing power by taking her share in Africa. 3. Militarism . Army officers in Europe favoured colonial expansionist wars to give them greater opportunities for glory or promotion. a) For example, in Sudan, it was the military offers, in search of glory, and not the French government who directed the extent of French colonization. b) British soldiers like Wolseley Kitchener supported the expansion of the British Empire in Africa. 4. The rise of Nationalism . In Europe, there was the rise of a general feeling of civilians that their nations should acquire overseas colonies for national prestige. The Germans began feeling they belonged to a superior race that must be shown by acquiring colonies in Africa. **Strategic reasons ** 1. Construction of the Suez Canal . (The Egyptian question). ~ The construction of the Suez Canal, opened in 1869, promoted a link between Europe and Asia/ shortened the routes to Far East. It also promoted international trade. It also made Egypt gain some strategic importance to Europeans. ~ The inability of Khedive Ishmael (1863-1879) to pay for the cost of the construction of the canal (due to his extravagancy) led to British full occupation of Egypt in 1882, being a major shareholder in the Anglo-Suez Company that owned the canal. ~ The dismayed French planned diversions of the Nile waters, and make Egypt a desert, after occupying territories to the south of Egypt. ~ It was against the backdrop that Britain claimed Uganda (source of the Nile) in 1894, Kenya (the gateway to Uganda) in 1895 and Sudan (where the Nile passes) in 1898. ***2. French activities in West Africa and the Congo *** The activities of France in Congo and West Africa, after loss of Egypt, through their Italian agent Savorgnan de Brazza in connection to acquisition of colonies alarmed other powers. This encouraged powers like Germany to join in the scramble and acquire Togo, Cameroon, Namibia and Tanganyika. ***3. The personal activities of King Leopold II of Belgium. *** ~ He endeavored to create a personal empire. In 1876, Leopold convened the Brussels Geographical Conference where he formed a business company, the International African Association comprising explorers and traders with a mission to civilize Africa, abolish slave trade and establish free trade. ~ As a result of the activities of his agent, Henry Morton Stanley who created the Congo Free State, Leopold had established a personal empire in 1884 . ----- 230 ### ~ It was the activities of king Leopold leading to intense rivalry amongst European nations over Congo that led to the convening of the Berlin Conference in 1884. **Social reasons ** ***1. The work of Christian missionaries *** ~ They created an atmosphere of friendship with Africans by giving those gifts like cloths and beer, introducing economic activities like farming, carpentry, clerical work, among Africans, that were important virtues in the process of colonization. ~ Where they were in danger, they pressurized their home governments to protect them. ~ The missionaries had direct contact with the people of the interior of Africa and they were front-runners who paved way for the colonialists through their works. ~ They preached peace, love and hard work and hence calmed down the emotions of Africans towards the Europeans. ~ Some of them wrote exaggerated reports about Africa to convince Europeans to take interest in Africa. 2. The growth of European population. The growth of European population steadily to about 420 million in the 19th century led to the quest for new outlets to resettle the population.E.g Britain settled some of her people in Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada and South Africa. German, Portugal and Dutch also had to find places in Africa to settle some of their people. 3. Anti-slave trade campaigns- Humanitarian factor . The humanitarians in Europe like William Wilberforce and Granville Sharp, and the missionaries who led the crusade against slave trade advocated for colonization of Africa in order to stop it and introduce Legitimate Trade.When slave trade was abolished, many European nations used it as an excuse to remain in some parts of Africa, control the region, enforce the anti-slavery treaties, and promote legitimate trade. **The pull factors ** a) Existence of Vast natural resources in Africa. There were pockets of minerals in various parts of Africa and ivory awaiting exploitation. This attracted the Europeans. b) Well developed trade/trade routes in the interior. Imperialists used these routes as transport routes to penetrate the interior. c) Existence of Navigable Rivers. For example, rivers like Congo and Niger made transportation easy d) Existence of weak Decentralized local communities. Most African communities were decentralized with no military structures therefore offering little resistance to European invasion. e) Frequent wars / inter community wars. These wars weakened African communities and were left ill prepared for any resistance. Some readily collaborated with the Europeans. ----- 231 ### **THE PROCESS OF PARTITION ** The fore runners to the process of partitioning Africa were the early explorers, missionaries and traders. Their activities were succeeded by the making of treaties and agreements in various parts of Africa between trading companies and the locals. . For example, the Buganda Agreement, the Heligoland Treaty and the Berlin act of 1884- 1885.In places where the Europeans employed diplomacy, they won the support of many Africans who collaborated with the intruders. The Europeans sometimes blended diplomacy with wars of conquest or use of force especially against the resisting communities.The partitioning boundaries were drawn along physical features like rivers, mountains, etc.The Berlin conference On 15 [th] November 1884, Britain, Germany, France, Belgium, the USA, Portugal and Italy convened in Berlin to lay down the rules for the partition and eliminate conflicts amongst European nations. Africans, whose continent was being shared, were not represented in the conference The Berlin Conference of 1884-85, partitioned Africa into different spheres of influence without recourse to war. **Terms of the Berlin act of 1884-1885. ** a) That all signatories must declare their sphere of influence an area under each nations occupation b) That once an area is declared a sphere of influence, effective occupation must be established in the area through establishment of firm colonial infrastructures to be followed by colonial administration. c) That any state, laying claim to any part of Africa must inform other interested parties in order to avoid future rivalry. d) That any power acquiring territory in Africa must undertake to stamp out slave trade in favour of legitimate trade and safeguard African interests. e) That if a European power claims a certain part of the African coast, the land in the interior next to the coast became hers. f) That the Congo River and the Niger River basins were to be left free for any interested power to navigate. g) The European powers vowed to protect and safeguard European interests in Africa irrespective of their nationality. **Impacts of the Partition** **Political effects ** a) Introduction of European administration minimized intertribal wars and civil strife. b) It led to development of strong African leadership and beginning of state formation. c) Colonial government structures inherited by most independent African states have continued to be models of governments in African countries. d) Rise of African nationalism to fight colonialism led to the development of African political awareness. ----- 232 ### e) The Europeans gained fame, prestige and national glory by having colonial possessions. f) Negatively, it led to collapse of African traditional political systems and leadership. g) Use of divide and rule promoted ethnic disunity that continues to trouble Africa many years after independence. h) Boundary creation split apart many African communities. For example, the Somali are found both in Kenya and in Somalia, the Maasai in Kenya and Tanzania and the Ewe in Ghana and Togo. i) In some cases some communities whose cultures were incompatible found themselves bunched together. **Social impacts ** a) Through the protection offered to missionaries, it stimulated the spread of Christianity to various parts of Africa. b) It led to development of urban centres. Some towns grew as centres of administration e.g. Nairobi and Machakos. Others grew as railway terminus e.g. Kisumu. c) African welfare was boosted. Some African benefited from western education and health facilities introduced by the Europeans. d) European languages were introduced in Africa. e) Negatively, it created landlessness as European settlers appropriated African land. f) The Africans adopted some negative aspects of western culture. g) Many Africans lost their lives through resistance. **Economic effects ** a) There was construction of roads, railway and other forms of infrastructure, which helped to open up the interior. b) Imperialization helped to widen market for African produce especially with the establishment of local industries. c) Africans were exposed to European manufactured goods/ increase in essential commodities. d) Partition speeded up the economic growth of European nations. e) Negatively, forced labour and exploitation of African resources left many parts of Africa impoverished and underdeveloped. f) Africans were exposed to heavy taxation and denial to participate in economic activities like farming, trade etc. **AFRICAN REACTION TO EUROPEAN COLONIZATION. ** **RESISTANCE ** Some communities were keen on defending their age-old and ancient political, social and economic institutions and viewed the arrival of the Whiteman with suspicion. Their leaders did not want to lose their power, wealth and sources of prestige. Others were militarily prepared for the Europeans. E.g the Mandinka, Nandi, Ndebele and Ethiopia. ----- 233 ### Some resisters were centralized states enjoying immense unity making it easy to mobilize people for a war. **The Maji Maji Rebellion (1905- 1907). ** The Maji Maji Uprising in Tanganyika was the most significant African challenge to German colonial rule in its African colonies. The Uprising lasted two years c over 10,000 square miles. Tanzania had been acquired largely by Dr. Karl Peters, who signed treaties with the Chiefs of Usagara, Ungula, Uzigua and Ukami, in 1885. The Rebellion involved the Zaramo, Matumbi, Bena, Ngindo, Pogoro, Bunga, Ngoni, Luguru, Wamwera and Ndendeule **Causes of the maji maji rebellion. ** 1. When Germany established its control over Tanganyika by 1898, it imposed a violent regime in order to control the population. Kings who resisted German occupation were killed. Africans resented the cruel, brutal, harsh and ruthless rule of the Germans. 2. Africans resented the Creation of new system of administration using Akidas and Jumbeswho terrorized the people and misused their positions. 3. The African population was also subjected to high taxation by the Germany East Africa Company to raise revenue for administration. The Matumbi on their part felt that the Germans should instead have paid the Africans for using their land. 4. The Africans resented a system of forced labour, whereby they were required to grow cotton and build roads for their European occupiers. The Africans were treated inhumanely while at work by the Akidas. 5. The Germans had no respect for African culture in that they misbehaved with Ngindo women. Crimes like rape, fornication and adultery, committed by the Germans were punishable by death among the Ngindo. 6. Christian missionaries discredited traditional belief and practices e.g. condemning sacred places as places of witchcraft. This greatly offended the Africans. 7. Germans had alienated land from Africans as a way of making the railway pay for the cost of its construction. The arrival of German settlers in U sambara area in 1898, Meru in 1905 and Kilimanjaro area in 1907 led to massive loss of African land. 8. Africans were forced to grow cotton in the communal cotton growing scheme, where they got very little payments. In 1902, Peters also ordered villages to grow cotton as a cash crop (for export) with each village, charged with producing a quota of cotton. This policy annoyed Africans who could no longer effectively work on their on farms to produce food. 9. The Ngoni were seeking revenge for the Boma Massacre of 1897 during which their soldiers were killed in large numbers. 10. The role of Kinjeketile Ngwale in instilling confidence in the Africans to unite and rise up against the Germans 11. The 1905, a drought that threatened the region making Africans incur heavy losses on a crop that was not even edible, combined with opposition to the government's ----- 234 ### agricultural and labor policies, became the immediate cause of the rebellion against the Germans in July, 1905. **Course of the maji maji war. ** The oppressive regime bred discontent among the Africans, and resentment reached a fever pitch in 1905 when drought hit the region. A Ngarambe prophet, Kinjikitile Ngwale emerged, who claimed to know the secret to a sacred liquid which could repel German bullets called \"Maji Maji,\" which means \"sacred water.\" Ngwale claimed to be possessed by a snake spirit called Hongo.Thus, armed with arrows, spears, and doused with Maji Maji water, the first warriors of the rebellion began what would become known as the Maji Maji Rebellion. The rebellion was led by Kinjeketile Ngwale, Abdalla Mpanda and Ngamea. On July 31, 1905, Matumbi tribesmen marched on to Samanga and destroyed the cotton crop as well as a trading post. Kinjikitile was arrested and hanged for treason. However, Kinjekitiles ideas were spread widely through a whispering campaign called Njwiywia or Jujila by the Matumbi. Matumbi warriors uprooted cotton from an Akidas farm at Nandete to provoke the chiefs to fight. On August 14, 1905, Ngindo tribesmen attacked a small party of missionaries on a safari; all five, including Bishop Spiss (the Roman Catholic Bishop of Dar es Salaam) were speared to death. The Ngindo drove their hated Akidas from their area. They boycotted cotton picking.By August 1905, Germans were restricted to four military stations i.e. Wahenga, Kilosa, Iringa and Songea. The apex of the rebellion came at Mahenge in August 1905 where several thousand Maji Maji warriors attacked but failed to overrun a German stronghold. On October 21, 1905 the Germans retaliated with an attack on the camp of the unsuspecting Ngoni people who had joined the rebellion killing hundreds of men, women, and children. This attack marked the beginning of a brutal counteroffensive that left an estimated 75,000 Maji Maji warriors dead by 1907. Forces from Iringa under Captain Migmann assisted in the recapture of Kabata by Major Johannes.Reinforcement arrived from Germany and in 1907 warriors were defeated by Governor Graf Von Gotzen. The Germans employed the scorched earth policy which destroyed all property on sight. The Africans lost faith in the magic water. Some surrendered while others fled to Mozambique. **Consequences of the maji maji uprising** a) There was massive loss of lives. In its wake, the Maji-Maji rebellion left 15 Europeans and 389 African soldiers and between 75,000 and 100,000 insurgents dead. b) There was massive destruction of property, as villages and crops were burnt when Germans applied the scorched earth policy. c) Southern Tanganyika experienced severe famine as farms and granaries were destroyed. This disrupted economic activities such as agriculture and trade. d) Thousands of families were displaced during the war. This was because of the fear that gripped the land, forcing people to flee in different direction. ----- 235 ### e) The war undermined the German economy in Tanganyika, as numerous economic activities came to a standstill. f) There was loss of leadership in African communities which created disorganization and demoralized the African people. Most captured leaders were hanged or imprisoned. A total of 47 Ngoni chiefs were hanged. g) Africans resigned to colonial authority. The revolt broke the spirit of the people to resist and the colony remained calm, realizing they did not have better weapons to fight with. h) The uprising undermined the Africans confidence in their traditional religion. The magic water failed to protect them against the German bullets. i) The uprising laid the foundation to Tanganyikas Nationalism. The uprising would become an inspiration for later 20th Century freedom fighters who called for similar interethnic unity as they struggled against European colonial rule. j) Although the Maji Maji Uprising was ultimately unsuccessful, it forced Kaiser Wilhelm's government in Berlin to institute reforms in their Tanganyika administration as they realized the potential cost of their brutality. **Reforms introduced by the German administration after the maji maji uprising. ** a) Corporal punishment was abolished by the German administration. Those settlers who mistreated their workers were punished. b) Forced labour for settler farms was abolished. c) Communal cotton growing was stopped and Africans were to plant their own cotton and get profit from it. d) Better educational and medical services for the Africans were introduced. e) Africans were involved in administration of the region as Akidas and Jumbes. f) Newspapers that incited settlers against Africans were censured. g) Kiswahili became an official language. h) A colonial department of the German government was set up in 1907 to investigate and monitor the affairs of the German East Africa. i) The new governor rejected extra taxation of Africans. j) Colonial administration in Tanganyika was now tailored to suit the Africans. **Role of religion in the Maji Maji rebellion. ** a) It gave people courage, loyalty and confidence to fight the Germans. b) It gave spiritual strength to fight a superior force. c) Through religion, suspicions among communities were wiped out. d) Religion stood above tribal loyalty/all followed it regardless of tribe. e) Religious cults like bolero/kolelo promised people the destruction of the white man. f) It provided the ideology, which guided the war efforts. g) It sustained the morale of the warriors. h) It provided a common plan of action based on mass action i) It provided leadership during the war e.g. the prophetic leaders. ----- 236 ### j) It was used, to address the so many African grievances emanating from the harsh German rule. **The Mandinka Resistance. ** **Samori Toure (c. 1830-1900) ** One of the great kings and fighters of African freedom was the great Samori Toure. Born about 1830 in Sanankaro, SE of Kankan in present-day Guinea, Samori Toure chose the path of confrontation, using warfare and diplomacy, to deal with the French colonial incursion. His father was a Dyula trader, leading Toure to follow his familys occupation. In the 1850s, he enrolled in the military forces at Madina (present-day Mali) to liberate his mother, captured during a slave raid by king Sori Birama of Bisandugu. Displaying extraordinary military skill and prowess, he and his mother were subsequently released in 1858. Coupled with his experience as a Dyula trader, he built his army. Samori employed the triple thrust of persuasion, threat and war, in the same way as Sundiata did in Mali, to organized Malink chiefdoms and expand the Mandinka state. Between 1852 and 1882, Samori Toure had created the Mandinka Empire with the capital at Bisandugu, in present day Gambia.Samoris army was powerful, disciplined, professional, and trained in modern day warfare. They were equipped with European guns. The army was divided into two flanks, the infantry or sofa, with 30,000 to 35,000 men, and the cavalry or sere of 3,000 men. There was a third wing of 500 men forming specially trained bodyguards. In 1881, Samori extended the empire to the east as far as Sikasso (in Mali) to the west, up to the Futa Djallon Empire. Meanwhile, the French were extending eastwards from Futa Djalon while the Mandinka were extending westwards towards Kenyeran trading centre, Next to the rich Bure Gold fields.In 1882, at the height of the Mandinka empire, the Frenc h accused Samori Tour of refusing to withdraw from an important market center, Kenyeran (his army had blockaded the market). They thus started war on him. His bid to obtain assistance from the British to deal with the French failed as the later were not willing to enter into conflict with the French. From 1882 to 1885, Samori fought the French and had to sign infamous Bisandugu treaty on 28 [th] march 1886 and then 1887. Significance of the Bisandugu treaties (1886-1887 ) a) To Toure, these were acts of delay the real confrontation that with the French that would come at an opportune time. b) He hoped that by this treaty, he would reach out at the British for a friendship treaty to enable him secure trade routes from the north under Tieba of Sikasso. c) The French on their part hoped to use the treaty to enable them to arrange the conquest of the Tukolor Empire. d) The treaties put the Mandinka under brief French protection. In 1888, he took up arms again when the French reneged on the treaty by attempting to foster rebellion within his empire. ----- 237 ### In 1890, he reorganized the army and concluded a treaty with the British in Sierra Leone, where he obtained modern weapons. He now stressed defense and employed guerilla tactics. **The Franco- Mandinka war (1891-1898) ** **Causes of the Franco-Mandinka war (1891-1898) ** a) Samori wanted to safeguard the independence and religion of his empire. Being a staunch Muslim, he could not tolerate non-Muslims on his land. b) He was not ready willing to lose the rich Bure Mines to the French whether through diplomacy or warfare. c) His empire was at that time enjoying military and economic superiority. The French incursion was merely a threat to his territorial expansion that was to be fought at all costs. d) His participation in trade had enabled him to acquire modern arms thus enabling him to build an equipped and well trained army which did not fear the encounter French. He even had facilities for arms repair. e) His scheme to play off the British against the French, between 1882 and 1889, had failed. This upset him and therefore left him only with the fighting option. f) The activities of the French of selling arms to his enemies such as Tieba of Sikasso were viewed by Samori as an act to weaken the Mandinka dominance. **Course of the franco-mandinka war. ** Samori waged a seven year war against France whose army was led by Major Archinard. In 1891, with his improved weaponry and reorganized army, he defeated the French. In 1892, French forces overran the major centers of the Mandinka Empire, leaving death and destruction in their wake. In 1894, the French assembled all their troops in western Sudan (Senegal, Mali, Niger, etc) to fight Samori.Between 1893 and 1898, Samoris army retreated eastward, toward the Bandama and Como, resorted to the scorched earth tactic, destroying every piece of land he evacuated. He moved his capital east from Bisandugu to Dabakala, thus creating a second empire in 1893. This enabled him to delay the French. He formed a second empire, and moved his capital to Kong, in upper Cote dIvoire. **Disadvantages of Samoris second empire** a) He was cut off from Freetown where he used to buy firearms. b) He was at war with the communities, which he had attacked in his expansionist wars. c) His southern frontier was open to French attacks from the Ivory Coast. d) At his new empire, Samore was cut off from his gold mines at Bure thus; he had no wealth to keep his army running. e) The occupation of the Asante Empire by the British in 1896 meant that enemies from all corners surrounded Samori Toure. In 1898, Samori, forced to fight a total war against innumerable odds like famine and desertion that weakened his forces, was captured on September 29, 1898, in his camp in ----- 238 ### Gu (l) mou at the town of Sikasso in present-day Cte dIvoire and exiled to Ndjol, Gabon, where he died of pneumonia on June 2, 1900. **Factors that aided Samori Toure in offering a protracted resistance to the ** **Europeans ** a) He had established military workshops with a trained cadre of artisans whom he used to repair and manufacture his own weapons. This guaranteed regular supply of weapons during the resistance. b) He himself was a courageous fighter, a greater organizer and a military tactician and he personally commanded his army on the battlefield. c) His adoption of the Scorched Earth Policy as he mobilized the entire population to retreat left the French to starve and delay their advance. d) The success witnessed in trade enabled him to acquire guns and horses from the north, which were important in the resistance. e) Through trade and subsequent tribute collection, he obtained adequate wealth, which he used to maintain a large army. f) He had a large strong and well-organized army of 35,000 men, which was a formidable force for the French. g) He used diplomacy in dealing with the French to buy time to reorganize and strengthen his army, and to negotiate with the British in Sierra Leone to guarantee regular supply of guns. h) French soldiers were ignorant of the strange land they were fighting in and were faced with further problem of tropical disease. i) Some of his soldiers had served in the French colonial army and were thus familiar with the French tactics. j) He used Mandinka nationalism and Islam to unify the army. Many of Samoris soldiers believed that they were fighting a Jihad (holy war) and therefore fought with determination. **Why samori was finally defeated. ** a) Since his army and community were constantly on the move, they could not engage in any gainful economic activity to replenish their supplies. b) The abandoning of the rich Bure Gold reserves as Samori retreated meant he had lost an important source of revenue that was initially used to sustain the army. c) When he moved to his second empire, He was cut off from Freetown where he used to buy firearms. d) Samori failed to get any support from other African societies due to lack of unity. Ahmed Seku of Tukolor and Tieba of Sikasso chose to rather assist the French than support Samori. ----- 239 ### e) His second empire was open to attack from all sides by either the British or the French, making it difficult to defend. f) The French had superior weapons and better means to re-equip their stores. They were also determined to defeat samori to set up an overseas colonial empire. g) The use of the scorched earth policy was resented by the civilians since it left them with nothing after destruction. It thus starred up local resistance. h) Even within his own empire, there was no total unity. The non-Mandinka communities and non-Muslims in the empire who had felt mistreated during his reign supported the French. i) The refusal by the British to assist Samori dented his hopes of getting a European ally against the French. j) Samoris retreat to Liberia was blocked and his capital besieged. He had to surrender to the French. **The Ndebele Resistance ** **Background** The Ndebele were descendants of Nguni conquerors from South Africa (fleeing from the mfecane wars) who occupied what is now Matabeleland. Mzilikazi (Ndebele King) opened the door for the London Missionary Society led by Robert Moffat, who settled in Matabeleland in 1859. They assisted him in repairing his guns, inoculating cattle, writing and interpreting letters and providing medical care to the sick. Hehowever had little interest in Foreigners and even had those whose who accepted missionary influence killed. Mzilikazi died in 1868 and his son Lobengula took over.Lobengula was the Ndebele king at the outbreak of the Anglo-Ndebele war of 1893. He went to great lengths to appease the increasingly aggressive British imperialists from the South, Portuguese invasion from Angola and Mozambique and Germans from the south west. He used his diplomatic skills to buy time before engaging in war with the British. He even tried to pit one European nation against the other (the Boers and the British). He in 1870 had granted a mining concession to Thomas Baines of Durban Gold Mining Co. in order to diffuse white intervention. In 1888, Lobengula signed the Moffat treat y which stated that he was not to sign any other treaty with other European groups without British permission. Rhodes sent his partner and agent Charles Rudd to compel Lobengula to acquiesce to the Rudd (mining) Concession- a verbal agreement between Lobengula and BSA Co granting the company a mining monopoly in Matabeleland. In return, he was to get a gunboat on River Zambezi or 500 sterling ponds, a monthly salary of 100 sterling pounds, 1000 rifles and 100,000 cartridges. Lobengulas conditions for concession were not incorporated in the final text. When the terms of the treaty were interpreted to him, he learned that he had been tricked into surrendering his kingdom to Europeans.In 1889, he repudiated the treaty and sent a fruitless delegation of Indunas (Motshede and Babiyance) to London to meet Queen Victoria. Despite the Ndebele king's repeal of the concession, Rhodes, supported by the British crown, enacted a charter of the newly created British South Africa ----- 240 ### Company investing it with an array of rights: the right to ma.ke treaties, to pass laws and to subject the natives to its police force, as well as to make grants of minerals and land to white settlers. Lobengula was thus pushed into reluctant resistance by white greedy rapacity. **Causes of the 1893 Ndebele war. ** 1. The Ndebele detested the treachery used by the British in compelling Lobengula to sign the Rudd Concession 2. British occupation of Matabeleland had ended Ndebele powers over the shona whom they always raided for cattle and women. 3. The British acts of provocation (inciting the Shona to raid the Ndebele for cattle). When the Ndebele chose to attack the shona, the British would then fight them under the pretext of protecting their interests in Mashonaland. 4. The attempt by the Ndebele indunas to punish some shona who disobeyed King Lobengula became the immediate cause. **Course of the war. ** The war broke out in October 1893. The British army was led by Dr.Starr Jameson and comprised the shona police and other mercenaries from South Africa. At that time, the Ndebele had been weakened by smallpox and inferior weapons leading to little confrontation between them and the British. Lobengula chose to evacuate his people towards Northern Rhodesia. Atthe two battles of Shangani River and Mbembezi. The Ndebele were defeated by superior European gun-fire. Lobengula finally fled to Bulawayo where he died in 1894. The conquerors took advantage of the natives' inner divisions, with people of the low castes remaining passive and even some traitors helping the invaders. The aftermath of the British conquest in Zimbabwe was that cattle were seized from the natives and their land taken. Even the for the small plots that were left to them, Africans were often forcibly prevented from ploughing and sowing, since they were subjected to tax-collection and coerced labour in whiteowned farms. The Ndebele were pushed to the reserves of Gwaai and Shangani. **Second Matabele War (the Chimurenga war 1896-1897) ** The war of liberation which was dubbed Chimurenga, or the Second Matabele War was a fulfillment of prophesy of a great Shona spirit, Mbuya Nehanda, sister of the great Shona prophet Chaminuka. Mlimo, the Ndebele spiritual leader is in fact credited with fomenting the Second Ndebele War. He convinced the Ndebele that the White settlers were responsible for the drought, locust plagues and the cattle disease rinderpest ravaging the country at the time. **Causes of the Chimurenga war** a) The war broke out because the Shona and the Ndebele feared disruption of their age- old and valued trade and trade routes. ----- 241 ### b) They fought for economic and trade independence. The company had stopped shona Gold and ivory trade with the Portuguese and forced them to trade only with the company only and at low exchange rates. c) They were fighting against land alienation. The BSA Company had alienated the Ndebele land and pushed them to the Gwaai and Shangani reserves that had no water and were infested with tsetseflies. d) The war eroded the Ndebele traditional authority. When Lobengulas sons were sent to South Africa by Rhodes for education, they were denied chance of succeeding their father. e) They detested the removal of the rights of chiefs to allocate land. The British ruined the regimental system and refused to recognize the power of the indunas and Ndebele laws. f) The British began to assume the rights to punish the subjects on behalf of the chiefs. Sometimes even the chiefs were also punished. E.g, Chief Moghabis village was burnt. g) They revolted against taxation which was an interference with their economic independence. The hut tax, introduced in 1894 was collected with much brutality. h) The Ndebele were not pleased with the recruitment of the shona in the police force. They felt humiliated as the shona took the chance to revenge for the many years of oppression. i) They resented the general brutality of the whites when dealing with the Africans, like threatening the black people with punishment just before pay, to cause them to run away. j) They wanted the removal of the policy of forced labour on European mines and farmswhere workers operated under deplorable conditions, often whipped with syambok (whip) and worked for long hours without chance to engage in activities of their choice. k) The company disregarded the Ndebele customs especially the class system. They treated everybody equally, including the Holi who were traditionally slaves to the Ndebele aristocrats. The traditional leaders were sometimes flogged before their subjects. l) The confiscation, by the company, of 250,000 head of cattle in 1893 from the Ndebele. Leaving them with only 50,000 affected by cattle disease. The rights to raid the shona for cattle was also denied. m) The people were resented more by the Natural calamities that continued to afflict them and which religious mediums like Mlimo blamed on the presence of the whites. n) The influence of the Mwari cult leaders who urged people to resist with an assurance of victory against the British and immunity against the European bullets. Course of the war . Mlimo's call to battle happened at a time when the BSA Co's Administrator General Matabeleland, Leander Starr Jameson, had sent most of his troops to fight the Transvaal Republic in the ill-fated Jameson Raid in Dec. 1995 leaving the country's defenses in disarray. ----- 242 ### War in Matabeleland.On 29 [th] March 1896, the Ndebele High Priest Umlugulu, with senior indunas, organized a ceremony to install Umfezela as Lobengulas successor. On that day, The Ndebele rebels killed the whites on their farms as they found them by surprise. They also killed African policemen in the British force. The European settlers took refuge in fortified camps in Bulawayo, Gwelo, Belingwe and Mangwe.The British immediately sent troops to suppress the Ndebele and the Shona, but it cost the lives of many settlers, Ndebele, and Shona alike. The Matabele military defiance ended only when Burnham found and assassinated Mlimo, thanks to a Zulu informant. The Ndebele finally agreed to peace talks with Rhodes during which Rhodes agreed to disband the shona police and give the Ndebele headmen some powers as indunas. **The War in Mashonaland ** On 17 June 1896, the Hwata dynasty at Mazowe attacked the Alice Mine. They succeeded in driving away the British settlers from their lands on 20 June 1896. In the same month, Mashaykuma, working with the local spiritual leader Kagubi, the Zezuru Shona people in killing a British farmer Norton and his wife at Porta Farm in Norton. With the war in Matabeleland ending in October 1897, Gen. Carrington was able to concentrate his forces on Mashonaland. Nehanda Nyakasikana and Kagubi Gumbo- reshumba were captured and executed in 1898, but Mkwati, a priest of the Mwari shrine, was never captured and died in Mutoko. Traditional leaders played a major role in the rebellion, notably Chief Mashayamombe, who led resistance in Mhondoro, Gwabayana, Makoni, Mapondera, Mangwende and Seke. **Role of religion in the organization of the S hona Ndebele resistance ** a) Religion united the Shona and Ndebele who had hitherto been bitter rivals. / The two communities entered a common plan of action. b) It boosted and sustained the morale of the masses and gave them spiritual strength to fight a might force. c) Religion was used as a base of mass action. It provided the resistance with a common ideology. Much of the ideology used was derived from Umlugulu, the chief priest of the Ndebele Nyamanda, Lobengulas eldest son and Mlimo, the medium of Mwari Cult d) Religious leaders provided leadership to the war against white aggressors who were considered immoral and brutal. e) The Mwari Cult provided an important organization link between the Ndebele and shona since it was widespread. f) The most important representatives of the Mwari Cult were Mkwati and Singinyamatse who were the backbone of the spiritual unity of the Ndebele. **Why the Ndebele and shona were defeated ** a) Disunity among Africans and between Shona and Ndebele. They fought on different fronts. Even some African communities supported the British against the shona and Ndebele. ----- 243 ### b) The Ndebele social class lacked unity of purpose. The former aristocrats fought on their own while the former slave classes chose to even cooperate with the British. c) British soldiers were well trained as compared to African soldiers. They also got reinforcement from Botswana and South Africa. d) The arrest and execution of African leaders like Nehanda, Kagubi and Singinyamatse demoralized the people. e) The British had superior weapons as compared to African inferior weapons. f) The magic failed to protect them against the enemy bullets. Many people were killed by the British including the leaders of the Mwari cult. g) The determination of Cecil Rhodes, who negotiated for peace with Ndebele thus ending the war. This made the suppression of the Shona by the British easy. **Results of the war. ** a) The Africans lost their independence as the British established their authority over them. b) There was an enormous loss of life and property. c) The African land was alienated and they confined to reserves d) Africans in reserves were be subjected to forced labour. e) The war led to rapid spread of Christianity as the local people lost faith in their religion. f) The Ndebele indunas gained recognition as headmen. g) The Africans were exposed to severe famine, as the war hindered farming. h) The colonial office in London lost confidence in company rule due to its poor administration. **COLLABORATION ** ***What is collaboration? *** This was a style in which Africans responded to European intrusion through diplomacy, adaptation or allying with the Europeans for military support and for material gains **Reasons for collaboration by some African communities. ** a) Some African kings needed to safe guard themselves against internal and external enemies. e.g. Lewanika of Lozi who was facing threat from the Ndebele and the Ngoni. b) Others wanted to promote trade with the imperialists so that they can gain material wealth. For example, the Wanga and the Shona. c) Influence of the missionaries who convinced some African leaders to collaborate in order to get western education and civilization. E.g, Franois Coillard encouraged Lewanika to collaborate with the British. d) In some communities, there was need for protection against other European powers e.g. the Lozi against the Portuguese. e) Others were merely in need for assistance to gain regional supremacy. E.g the Maasai who were on downward trend as the Nandi were raising. ----- 244 ### f) To some it was a means of showing courtesy visitors assuming that they would leave soon and being ignorant of European intentions. For example, Kabaka Mwanga of Buganda. g) Other African leaders influenced some communities. For example, Chief Khama influenced Lewanika of the Lozi to resist. h) Having witnessed the European military might against the resisting neighbours some communities saw it futile to resist stronger force **The Lozi Collaboration** **Factors, which influenced Lewanika of the Lozi to collaborate with the British ** a) Lewanika was encouraged to collaborate with the British by King Khama of Botswana who had already benefited from British protection against the Dutch in South Africa. b) The European missionaries who had visited him earlier influenced Lewanika. For example, Franois Coillard who convinced Lewanika to ally with the British to gain western education. c) Lewanika needed support against Portuguese and Germans who were approaching his territory. d) Lewanika wanted the British to protect his kingdom from attacks by other African communities such as the Ndebele and Shona-protection against African enemies. e) Lewanika also wanted the British to protect him against internal enemies e.g. in 1884, Lewanika faced an internal rebellion-to safeguard his position. f) Lewanika desired western education especially for his sons and civilization in his country. g) Desire for promotion of trade between Britain and his people. He was keen on acquiring European goods such as firearms for territorial defence. h) He was fearful and considered it futile to resist a strong military force like Britain. **How Lewanika collaborated with the British. ** Signing of treaties e.g. he first signed a treaty with Harry Ware in 1889 before signing the Lochner Treaty of 1890 and the Corydon Treaty of 1898. These treaties put Bulozi under British protectorate.Lewanika became friendly to British agents like Frank Lochner and the missionary, Franois Coillard, whom he allowed to establish a permanent mission station within his territory. He sent his sons to the Coillard mission school as a show of acceptance of westernization. **Lochner Treaty of 1890. ** It was British missionary Francois Coillard who negotiated for the meeting between Frank Lochner, acting on behalf of Rhodes, and Lewanika in 1890. The treaty put Lewanikas Kingdom under the protection of the British South African Company. **Terms of the treaty. ** a) Lewanika gave the BSA Company mining rights in Bulozi except in certain farming and iron mining areas. b) The company promised to protect the kingdom from outside attacks. ----- 245 ### c) The British company promised to pay the king 2000 sterling pounds a year and 4% royalties of all minerals mined in the area. d) A promise was made to develop trade, build schools and develop telegraphy in the kingdom. e) Lewanika would still be a king but just a constitutional monarch, not an absolute ruler as before. f) That a British resident would be posted in Lealui, the capital of the Kingdom, to monitor company activities and advise Lewanika on foreign affairs. The treaty consequently implied that Lewanika had given up his kingdom to the British company.In 1897, Robert T. Coryndon a former police officer was sent as a British resident in Bulozi. Upon his arrival, he made arrangements for the signing of the Lawley treaty of 1898 which further reduced the size of the area governed by Lewanika. In October 1900, he signed another treaty, the Coryndon Treaty with Lewanika. The Coryndon Treaty (1900) ***It had the following terms; *** a) The British government would be responsible for administration of Bulozi. The company administrator would answer to the High Commissioner at the cape. b) The company would appoint officials and pay for the administration of the area. c) The company would provide schools, industries, postal services, transport and telegraphic facilities. d) Lewanika would receive only 850 sterling pounds a year as his stipend. e) The company was allowed to acquire land on the Batoka plateau. f) The company maintained its rights to prospect for mineral in Bulozi. g) Lewanika was to stop slavery and witchcraft in his area. h) Lewanika was made paramount chief of Barotse. His powers were reduced more when more white settlers arrived in 1905 ready to participate in government. NB; the Coryndon treaty made Lewanika a mere employee of the company, receiving only a stipend. He lost control of the former vassal states that no longer would pay tribute to him since they were now under the British.In the final run, Lewanika lost his independence just like any other collaborator or resistor. **Results of Lewanika collaboration** a) Schools and health centres were put up in his kingdom. b) He got British protection from Ndebele attacks. c) It marked the beginning of the erosion of the independence and traditional authority of his empire. Lewanika lost his authority as the administration was taken over by the British South Africa Company d) The British recognized Lewanika as a paramount chief of Barotse and gave him necessary protection. e) Lewanika received payment of 2000 yearly f) The British South Africa Company took over the control of the minerals ----- 246 ### g) The Lozi land was alienated and given to British settlers h) The Lozi were later forced to pay taxes in order to maintain the administration. i) The Lozi were forced to work as labourers on settlers farms j) The Lozi were employed in the civil service k) The British South Africa Company developed infrastructure in Barotseland l) The British used Barotseland as a base to conquer the neighbouring communities. **The Buganda collaboration. ** By the mid 19 [th] century, Buganda had become the most powerful state in the interior of East Africa. However despite this might, the Kabakas (Mutesa I and Mwanga) chose the path of collaboration instead of resisting the European intrusion. **Why kabaka Mutesa I (1856-1884) collaborated with the Europeans. ** a) His kingdom was under threat form Khedive Ishmael of Egypt. He therefore wanted British assistance against the Egyptian threat. b) There was threat from his traditional enemy, Omukama Kabalega of Bunyoro Kingdom. c) Mutesa wanted to establish a centralized religious authority over Buganda to counter there power wielded by the traditional priest of the Lubaale Cult and the Muslim power and influence. d) He wanted modernization and to gain Prestige from association with the Europeans. For example, western education, medicine and other material benefits. e) He had the desire to trade with Europeans to get their goods especially firearms. **Kabaka Mwanga (1884-1898) ** Mwangas main problem when he took over power was religious indecision which eventually generated political instability. In January 1885, he executed three C.M.S converts. In October 1885, he had Bishop Hannington killed. In May 1886, 30 young converts were burnt to death at Namugongo for refusing to denounce their Christian faith. In 1888, under the urge of the traditionalists, he unsuccessfully attempted to expel all foreigners whom he blamed for causing chaos in his kingdom. He instead was disposed by a combined force of Muslims, Catholics and Protestants and replaced by his brother Kiwewa, sharing authority with foreigners.In 1890, Mwanga recaptured the throne assisted by the Christians and Kabalega of Bunyoro kingdom. He signed a protectorate treaty with Carl peters for the Germans and rejected a treaty offer by Fredrick Jackson of IBEACO. IN 1891, Mwanga signed a treaty of collaboration with Fredrick Lugard, the First British administrator sent to Uganda. This was after the Heligoland Treaty of 1890 had put Uganda a British sphere of influence. **Why Mwanga collaborated** a) He wanted to acquire protection from internal and external enemies e.g religious groups and Banyoro. b) He wanted to secure his position and safeguard the Baganda from interference. ----- 247 ### c) He wanted the British to help him Gain regional supremacy over the surrounding kingdoms of Bunyoro, Ankole and Toro.However, throughout all the religious conflicts that continued in Uganda between the Protestants and the Catholics, Kabaka Mwanga always supported the Catholics to the Chagrin of the British administrators. He was disposed by Lugard in 1894 after the capture of his palace at Mengo.Under Kabaka Mwanga II, Buganda became a protectorate in 1894. This did not last and the Kabaka declared war on Britain in on July 6, 1897. He was defeated at the battle of Buddu on July 20 of the same year. He fled to German East Africa where he was arrested and interned at Bukoba. The Kabaka later escaped and led a rebel army to retake the kingdom before being defeated once again in 1898 and being exiled to the Seychelles.While in exile, Mwanga II was received into the Anglican Church, was baptized with the name of Danieri (Daniel). He spent the rest of his life in exile. He died in 1903, aged 35 years. In 1910 his remains were repatriated and buried at Kasubi.The war against Kabaka Mwanga II had been expensive, and the new commissioner of Uganda in 1900, Sir Harry H. Johnston, had orders to establish an efficient administration and to levy taxes as quickly as possible. This he did through the Buganda Agreement of 1900 **The Buganda agreement** The Buganda agreement was signed in 1900 between Sir Harry Johnstone, British Official, and Apollo Kagwa, representing the Baganda **Reasons for signing of the Buganda agreement** a) The treaty was to define the position of Buganda in the country. b) To introduce law and order in the country. c) To reduce the cost of British administration since Buganda was to meet the cost of administration. d) To define the relationship between Buganda and the British government. **Terms of the Buganda agreement ** a) The Buganda laws were to remain in effect as much as they did not interfere with protectorate laws that were to be applicable to Buganda Kingdom as well. Bugandakingdom was to be ruled by the Kabaka with the assistance of Katikiro. The Lukiko was to be the legitimate body making laws of Buganda and it was to compose 89 members. b) Buganda people were to pay poll and hut tax. However, No tax was to be levied on Buganda unless approved by the Lukiko (parliament). Revenue from Buganda was to be merged with all the revenue from other provinces. c) The kabaka, ministers and Chiefs to be paid since they were now employees of the British government. d) Buganda boundaries were defined to include parts of Bunyoro (the ten sazas she had acquired from Bunyoro). The kingdom was therefore expanded to twenty counties. To ease administration, each county was placed under a Saza Chief. ----- 248 ### e) Land tenure system was changed to include land on freehold basis (Mailo land) and crown land. The crown land was for protectorate government while the Mailo land was particularly for the kabaka, his ministers and his chiefs. f) Though Buganda became a province within the protectorate, Ganda system of government was recognized and modified. It was to have three ministers (katikiro, treasurer and chief justice.). The Lukiko had fixed number- 20-saza chiefs, 60 notables and 6 Kabakasappointees. **Results of the Buganda agreement. ** a) British overlord ship was confirmed over Buganda. b) Buganda was reduced to a status of a mere province. c) The position of the king was reduced he lost his power to give or withhold land as well as the power to appoint or transfer chiefs. d) The 1900 Agreement led to the birth of early nationalistic movements. For example, the Bataka Opposition Movement in the 1920s by the landless class people rising up against the land-owning group. e) Modern economy and western education were introduced with Buganda taking the lead. f) Buganda formed the basis for the British administration as baganda were appointed as British administrators. g) It strengthened the special position of Buganda in relation to other communities in Uganda. h) Sazas were increased from 10 to 20 and saza chiefs got land and right to impose land rent. i) It led expansion of Christianity and decline of Islamic influence. j) Bunyoro kingdom became aggrieved as results of loss of part their territory that was transferred to Buganda by the British. This caused friction later. **Results of African collaboration** a) Just like resistors, the collaborating communities also lost their independence and were eventually colonized. Bulozi and Buganda finally became British Protectorates. b) The collaborating community leaders gained some recognition, though with reduced powers. Lewanika foe example became the paramount Chief of Barotseland while Kabaka gained the title, His Highness. c) The collaborators were able to secure some amount of protection from their traditional enemies. The Lozi were protected from the Ndebele while the Baganda were protected from the Banyoro. d) The collaborators were used by the Europeans to exert their authority over other African societies. The baganda on their part were used to administer Busoga. e) The collaborating Africans gained from missionary work. Lewanikas sons for example gained western education. Hospitals and schools were also built in the kingdoms. ----- 249 ### f) There was increased trade between the collaborating communities and the Europeans. The communities gained European goods such as glassware, clothes, guns and ammunition. g) The collaborators just like resistors were later subjected to economic exploitation such as land alienation, mining, taxation and forced labour. **ESTABLISHMENT OF COLONIAL RULE IN KENYA ** **CAUSES OF THE SCRAMBLE FOR EAST AFRICA ** **Factors that contributed to the scramble and partition of East Africa ** 1. The rise of Nationalism in Europe. The Unification of Germany, after the Franco- Prussian war (1870-71) upset the balance of power in Europe and there was need to rebalance out through acquisition of colonies in Africa including east Africa. The Germans also felt that the only way their nation could gain recognition among other European powers was through securing colonial possession. ***2. Strategic location of East Africa in relation to Egypt. Europeans were concerned*** with the source of the river Nile in East Africa and control of the Suez Canal. Therefore, the ownership of East Africa was crucial to the Egyptian affairs. East Africa, had, from the days of the Portuguese conquest in the 15 [th] century, proved to be a strategic location for fresh supplies. That is why the Germans and the British competed for possessions in the region. ***3. The need to speed up economic development of the European countries. The*** industrializednations were rushing for colonies to tap raw materials to keep their factories running. There was also a popular believe that East Africa contained pockets of precious metals awaiting exploitation. They were also driven by the search for market for European produced goods. The Europeans were also looking for places to invest their capital. 4. The rise of Public opinion in Europe. There was growth of public support towards the acquisition of colonies. E.g., the Daily Press in London spoke well about acquiring colonies. ***5. Social factors. *** ~ East Africa was to be occupied as a means of stamping out slave trade and replacing it with legitimate trade. ~ The Europeans were keen on spreading their culture to east Africa. ~ They wanted to protect their missionaries who were already operating in east Africa **The process of Partition** The Berlin conference failed to fully resolve the rivalry between the Germans and the British in East Africa. The activities of Karl Peters and Harry Johnstone for the Germans and the British respectively in the Mount Kilimanjaro region depicted intense rivalry which almost led to war.The two signed treaties with local chiefs as a way of legalizing their arbitrary declaration of their spheres of influence. Karl peters even declared german protectorate over Ungulu, Uzigua, Usagara and Ukami.These activities together with ----- 250 ### those of Sir William Mackinnon of the Imperial British East Africa Company became the immediate cause of the partition of east Africa.The partition of East Africa was sealed through the following two treaties. **The Anglo-German Agreement of 1886** The agreement facilitated peaceful settlement of the german and British claims on east Africa as follows; a) The Sultan was given the 16 KM (10mile) coastal strip from Vanga to Lamu. He also acquired islands of Zanzibar, Pemba, mafia, Lamu, pate and Towns like Lamu, Kisimayu, Mogadishu, Merca, and Brava. b) Germany acquired the coastline of Witu the region between river Umba in the North and river Ruvuma in the south. c) The British got the territory north of river Umba up to river Juba in the north. However, the treaty failed to determine the western boundary, thus leaving Uganda up for grab to any power that got there first. Uganda therefore became a theatre of intense rivalry between Karl Peters who even secured a treaty with Kabaka Mwanga in 1890 and Fredrick Lugard who tried in vain to sign a treaty with Kabaka Mwanga. This tension is what led to the Heligoland Treaty of 1890. **Terms of the Heligoland Treaty of 1890** a) Germany officially recognized Uganda as a British sphere of influence/protectorate. b) Germany abandoned her claim over the territory of Witu for British in exchange for Heligoland island in the North sea c) Germany accepted British protectorate over Zanzibar and Pemba. d) Germany acquired a strip of land on Lake Tanganyika from Britain and the Coastal region of Tanganyika from the Sultan of Zanzibar. e) The Sultan of Zanzibar retained a 16km (10 miles) Coastal strip. This treaty thus ended the scramble for and partition of East Africa. **BRITISH OCCUPATION OF KENYA ** **Methods used by the British to occupy Kenya. ** a) Signing of treaties. The following treaties were signed either by the British or on behalf of the British to facilitate their occupation of Kenya; ~ A treaty by Sir William Mackinnon and the Sultan of Zanzibar Barghash in 1887 which effectively put Zanzibar under the British for 50 years. ~ The Maasai Agreements of 1904 and 1911 between Oloibon Lenana and the British ~ The Anglo-Germany Treaties of 1886 and 1890. b) Collaboration. The British collaborated with communities like the Wanga and Maasai who were later used as bases to extend British Authority over other areas. c) Establishing operational bases. The British built Forts like Fort Smith (Kabete) and Fort Hall (Muranga) to enhance their political control. d) Use of company Rule. In the initial stages, due to the fear of the enormous costs of effective occupation and administration, the British mandated the IBEA. Company to ----- 251 ### administer the Kenyan protectorate.The Imperial British East Africa Company of Sir William Mackinnon was given the royal charter in 1888 and thus had the following new powers; a) Levying and collecting taxes and institute custom duties in the area. b) Establishing political authority and Maintain of law and order in the British East Africa. c) Promoting legitimate trade and Eradicate slave trade d) Developing and civilizing the indigenous peoples with the assistance of the imperial consul based in Zanzibar. **Achievements of the IBEAC. ** a) The company succeeded in quelling local aggression in the British spheres of influence from communities such as the Nandi, Maasai and Akamba. b) The company established a series of Forts at Kibwezi, Machakos, Smith and Dagoretti, which laid the basis for colonial administration in Kenya. c) The company improved transport and communication in the protectorate by pioneering road construction in Kenya. For example the Sclaters Road between Kibwezi and Busia in 1894 which assisted in transportation of railway building materials. d) The company succeeded in eradicating slavery to some extend and securing freedom for many slaves. e) The company also developed a rubber industry along the coast and the interior. **Reasons why Britain used the IBEA Company to administer her possession ** a) Absence of a clear policy on the administration of colonial possessions. This gave room to the use of the company to administer the colony. b) The company could provide cheap administrative capital that Britain had failed to raise for colonial governance. The colonies were not yet economically viable c) There was a problem of inadequate personnel to be used in the administration of the colonies. d) I.B.E.A.Cos long experience in the region. The company had invested heavily in east Africa, hence making its participation in the administration of the colony inevitable. **Why company rule had failed by 1895. ** a) The region lacked strategic natural resources for export thus making the IBEACO, a trading company, to operate at a loss and narrow its revenue base. Minerals like Gold, copper and Diamond were not existent. b) The company lacked sufficient capital to carry out the day- to- day administrative operations. The company had spent the little funds available in the construction of fortified trading stations, with little reward. c) Transportation of goods in the region proved expensive and slow as the region did not have any navigable rivers ----- 252 ### d) The company faced the problem of poor coordination of its activities caused by lack of proper channels of communication between the head office in Europe and the offices in the colony. e) Some of the company officials were corrupt and therefore misappropriated funds. f) The company faced numerous resistances especially in the Nandi country thus disrupting their operation. At one time, Fort Smith was set on fire by African resisters. g) Some of the company officials lacked experience in administrative matters since most of them came merely as traders. h) The company officials also were affected by the harsh tropical climate and diseases like malaria and sleeping sickness that killed many. The company thus surrendered the Charter in 1895 to the British government for a compensation of 250,000 dollars **Factors facilitated the establishment of the British control over Kenya during the ** **19th century? ** a) The Christian missionary factor. They created an atmosphere of friendship with Africans, which was important for colonization. They also occasionally called home for protection against hostile communities. b) Presence of trading company (IBEACO. The companies through their agents signed treaties with African rulers and among themselves as a means of initiating effective occupation of Kenya. c) Superior military power/good army. The European armies were more efficient than he African ones. This was witnessed in the ability to quell the numerous wars of resistance like the Nandi resistance. d) Disunity among African communities. By the time the British came to East Africa, the Wanga were up against the neighboring communities in western Kenya, the Nandi and the Maasaiwere at war and the Mijikenda against the coastal Arabs over land. This was of advantage to the British. e) Signing of treaties. There was Collaboration of some communities with the British. The Maasai signed the Maasai Agreement of 1900. The Wanga also signed various treaties with the British. f) The British policy of indirect rule was readily acceptable, thus reducing the chances of resistance. g) Financial support from the home government. **KENYA PEOPLES RESPONSES BRITISH INVASION OF KENYA ** Africans in Kenya offered varied responses to the British intrusion into their country. Some resisted while other collaborated.The communities that resisted actively included the Nandi, Agiryama, Bukusu, Somali and sections of the Agikuyu ----- 253 ### **The Nandi Resistance (1895-1906) ** **Reasons why the Nandi resisted British occupation of their land** a) The Nandi had gained a lot of pride, having subdued their neighbours E.g the Luo, Maasai, Abagusii and Abaluhyia. At that time, they were enjoying a sense of superiority that gave them confidence to take the British Intruders head-on. b) The Nandi military superiority made them feel equal if not superior to the whites. Their warriors were well- trained and equipped and had gained a lot of experience through the numerous cattle raids the conducted against their neighbours. c) The Nandi detested the physical appearance of the white people which they considered as evil and must be expelled from their community. d) The Nandi were opposed to Land alienation by the British. They disliked the grabbing of their land for railway construction/white settlement. e) Kimnyoles prophecy that foreigners would dominate the Nandi motivated them to fight against the Europeans. f) The Nandi had a long history of resisting and fighting intruders. They had successfully warded off the Arab and Swahili traders in the 1850s. g) The Nandi resisted as a means of safeguarding their independence which they had enjoyed for a long time. h) The Nandi also enjoyed unity under the leadership of Koitalel Arap Samoei between 1895 and 1905. This had helped them to register numerous victories against neighbouring communities. They therefore felt strong enough to resist the British. **Course of the Nandi rebellion** The Nandi wars of resistance began in 1895. The Nandi mainly employed guerilla warfare ambushing the caravan traders and mail carriers who passed in their territory. When two Nandi warriors strayed into the Guasa Mesa administrative camp headed by Andrew Dick in 1895, he murdered them as a response to the attacks by the Nandi on foreigners passing in their territory.The Nandi retaliated through the murder of a British trader, Peter West and thirty of his workers. This sparked off British punitive expeditions against the Nandi with the first in 1897 which however failed to stop the Nandi raids. When the railway reached the Nandi territory, they refused to cooperate with the railway builders and even kept stealing building materials to make weapons and ornaments. They even ambushed and murdered railway builders.In 1900, the British sent three punitive expeditions under Colonel Evatt, the commander of the Uganda Rifles reinforced by the Maasai, Baganda, Swahili and Indian mercenaries.The Nandi were supported by the Kipsigis enabling them to resist for so long causing high death toll on the British and the Nandi as well.The year 1901 witnessed a temporary truce worked out by the British administrator, Walter Mayes (1901-1905), after realizing the heavy causalities both sides were experiencing. ----- 254 ### The war was re-ignited when the Nandi realized that the British had started settling and farming on their land. They destroyed the railway in protest. The British reacted by destroying crops and villages and stealing cattle for the next three years. The Nandi war of resistance only ended when the British officer in Nandi, Captain Meinertzhagen, hatched a plan to have Koitalel, the chief coordinator of the rsistance, killed. He and his advisers were killed in October 1905, during a peace meeting convened by Meinertzhagen. The Nandi finally sought for peace in December 1905 ending the ten year long resistance. **Why the Nandi offered the longest and strongest ever resistance to the British ** **intrusion in Kenya. ** a) The British intrusion into their territory happened when the Nandi were at the best of their power and superiority. b) Existence of a superior military organization based on the age set system. The Nandi army was strong and could match any foreign force. The regimental age-set system supplied the Nandi with young men who were experienced in battle, disciplined, organized and were effective. c) The Nandi also possessed knowledge of weapon manufacture and repair through their local ironsmiths and using stolen railway material. d) The Nandi enjoyed regular supply of food and war equipment which sustained the fighters for a long period. This was mainly aided by the Nandi mixed economy enabling them to turn livestock for food when the British destroyed crops. e) The Nandi had good knowledge of the terrain in which they were fighting the intruders thus having an advantage over the British who were not familiar with the terrain. The difficulties faced by the British as posed by the terrain disadvantaged them durin g the resistance f) The Nandi knowledge of Guerilla tactics. This enabled them to organize many surprise attacks while vandalizing key British installations like the telegraph lines. g) The existence of strong leadership. The Nandi leadership was religiously inspired and therefore very strong. The Orkoiyot was their symbol of unity and strength and was believed to possess some supernatural powers that gave courage to the fighters. h) Their enemies, the British troops, were slowed down in their advance by problems like respiratory disease due to the wet and cold climate. The Nandi were accustomed to these conditions i) The Nandi received assistance from the Kipsigis fighters the Elgeyo, Lembus and Nyangori which enabled them to hold off the British for Six weeks in 1900. **Why the Nandi were defeated in the hands of the British** a) The British obtained support, against the Nandi, from the collaborating communities like the Somali and the Maasai. b) The British military strength remained superior to that of the Nandi especially in terms of the weapons. Their guns were superior to the Nandi spears. ----- 255 ### c) There was an outbreak of smallpox in the Nandi country 1890. This weakened them by killing many and rendering others unable to fight on. d) They Nandi failed to get support from the neighboring Kenyan communities like the Luo and the Abaluhyia who were not friendly to them. e) The treachery employed by Captain Meinertzhagen, the British commander who lured Nandi Orkoiyot Koitalel Arap Samoei to a meeting where he was killed. f) The death of Koitalel Arap Samoei demoralized the Nandi into even signing for peace. g) The British used Scorched Earth Policy, which seemed more punitive to the Nandi since their houses were burnt and livestock confiscated. **Results of the Nandi resistance. ** a) The Nandi country was colonized by the British after 1906. The Nandi lost their independence. b) There was massive loss of life. Koitalel Arap Samoei, his entire council of elders and over 1000 warriors were killed. The British also experienced casualties on the part of their forces. c) There was destruction of property through burning and looting. E.g the British confiscated at least 5000 herds of cattle and burnt more than 5000 huts and grain stores. d) There was massive land alienation. The Nandi were pushed into reserves where they experienced impoverishment due to drought and cattle diseases. The Nandi lot their territory and traditional salt licks at Kapchekendi and Kamelilo that were now inhabited by the whites. e) The Nandi military organization disintegrated thus making them lose their dignity and authority in the region. f) The Nandi were separated from their close cousins and allies the Kipsigis through the creation of the Nandi Reserves where they were confined. Their economic lifestyle of grazing animals freely was also disrupted. g) Many Nandi warriors were recruited into the colonial police. **Agiriama resistance. ** A Bantu speaking group inhabiting the coastal region, their reaction to the British invasion was motivated by the reaction of the Mazrui Arabs and the Swahili who rose up against the British in 1895.The Agiriama reaction began as an offer of support to the Mazrui Arabs, with whom they had long trading links, during their conflict with the British over succession to the TakaunguSheikhdom. The Agiriama was also hitting back against the Busaidi Arabs who were encroaching on their territory. The British had supported the Al Busaidi collaborators throughout succession conflict.The British reacted by bombarding Rashids Headquarters at Mweli forcing the Agiriama and the Mazrui to resort to guerilla warfare. While the Mazrui Arabs later surrendered, the Agiriama now resorted to full scale rsistance against the British encroachment in 1914. ----- 256 ### **Causes of the Agiriama resistance** a) They did not want to pay taxes, especially hut tax that was hurting to traditionally polygamous group, to the British. The British also were forcing them to pay it in terms of labour instead of allowing them to sell their grains and livestock to pay. b) They had lost their independence/the British replaced the Agiriama traditional rulers with their own appointees c) They were opposed to forced labour on British plantations for little or no pay especially on land that had been snatched from them. d) The British did not respect their culture. The British policemen at Kitengani insulted the Agiriama culture by raping their women. e) The Agiriama were reacting against forced conscription into the Kings African Rifles. They were forced to produce 1000 able-bodied men within a month, join the British army f) They lost their land to the British due to the massive land alienation for settler farming. They were forced to offer paid labour on their own former land to the chagrin of the elders. g) The British, who were seeking to take over the Agiriama role as middlemen, disrupted their trade in ivory and food stuffs h) They disliked the British-appointed headmen whose duties included collection of taxes and recruitment of labour. **Course of the resistance** The Agiriama resistance was inspired by a Giriama prophetess, Mekatilili WA Menza. She was joined by an Elder, Wanje wa Madorika in mobilizing people to a mass resistance against the British rule.The immediate course of their reaction was the forced military recruitment into the KAR. To provoke the British to war, they barred their young men from moving outside their villages to work.Mekatilili and Wanje called on the people to return to their ancestral shrine at Kaya Fungo and offer sacrifices and denounced all appointed puppet rulers in favour of the traditional council of elders. The two administered traditional oaths to unite and inspire the people to war. I.e. the Mukushekushe oath for women and the Fisi oat for men.When a state of emergency was declared by the British over the Agiriama, they resorted to Hitand-run warfare. They attacked the homes of loyalists, Europeans and collaborators forcing the missionaries to seeker refuge at Rabai. The British countered the hit-and-run warfare with burning villages and crops and driving away livestockThe resistance only subsided when Mekatilili and Wanje were arrested and deported to Kisii.The Arabs, under Fadhili bin Omari, mediated between the Agiriama and the British, marking the end of the war under the following terms; a) The Agiriama to offer a specific number of labourers for European settlers and public works. ----- 257 ### b) They would also offer a certain number of able-bodied men to serve in the Kings African Rifles. c) The British would occupy all the land to the north of River Sabaki. Role of Mekatilili in the Agiriama resistance . a) She encouraged the Agiriama to face the British by administering the Mukushekushe and Fisi oaths to unite the people to war. b) She presented the grievances of the Agiriama, some of which the British later addressed. c) She rallied the people together against a common enemy thus laying the basis for nationalistic struggles for independence. **Results of the Agiriama resistance to the British ** a) Many people lost their lives some as fighters while others were caught in the crossfire. b) The Agiriama lost their independence to the British c) There was Rampant destruction of property i.e. food stores at home, food crops in the fields and cattle. Some property was lost through confiscation. d) The communitys economic activities were disrupted, especially the lucrative trade at Takaungu, where they had been acting as middlemen. e) The Agiriama were prohibited from brewing traditional liquor. f) The British withdrew their order demanding Agiriama to move out of their homes. g) For the first time women took up the leadership of the rebellion e.g. Mekatilili **Bukusu resistance** **Reasons why the Bukusu resisted the British rule** a) They wanted to safeguard their independence and culture i.e. circumcision. b) They were being compelled to recognize Nabongo Mumia as the overall leader of Abaluhyia. c) The Bukusu did not like the idea of paying taxes to the British through force. d) They resented the British demand in 1894, that the Bukusu warriors surrender guns they possessed. e) The British invasion had happened when the Bukusu were enjoying immense military power. **Course of the resistance** The Bukusu resistance began with the ambush of a trade caravan heading to Ravine through bukusuland. The Bukusu stole all the rifles. When they were commanded to surrender all the guns in 1894 and declined, the British sent a punitive expedition which however was defeated. The British administrator at Elureko, Charles Hobley sought for reinforcement from Major William Grant of the Ugandan protectorate. In 1895, at the battles of Lumboka and Chetambe, the Bukusu were summarily defeated. **Methods used by the Bukusu to resist the British. ** a) Use of Warfare. They directly fought the British troops led by Major William Grant, at Lumboka and Chetambe hills. ----- 258 ### b) Ambushes. The Bukusu ambushed a caravan of traders, sent by the commanding officer at Kavirondo to the Ravine Station. c) Revolting against rule by Wanga agents. The Bukusu Murdered a Wanga agent, Hamisi, who had been sent, to administer the area. ` **Effects of the Bukusu resistance** a) The Bukusu lost most of their land through massive land alienation b) They lost their independence as bukusuland was declared part of the British East Africa **Protectorate** c) There was massive loss of life within the Bukusu and the British forces. d) There was loss f property and disruption of Bukusu economy. The Bukusu lost their cattle and sheep. e) Bukusu women and children were taken prisoners by the British. **The Somali resistance. ** The Somali resistance was a reaction to the British declaration that Jubaland was a British protectorate. They were led by their leader Ahmad bin Murgan. **causes of Somali resistance. ** a) The Somali were opposed to the division of Somaliland into the British and Italian spheres of influence, which separated the clans. b) They were opposed to punitive expedition sent against them by the British. c) The Somali people being Muslims were opposed to being controlled by the British who were Christians. d) The British attempted to stop the Somali raiding activities against their neighbors. e) The Somali were against British control of their pastureland and watering points. f) The British wanted the Somali to drop their nomadic way of life. **Course of the resistance. ** The British initially reacted minimally to the Somali aggression on their Kisimayu neighbourhood in 1898 due to the following reasons; a) They viewed such an undertaking as to expensive in terms of the arms and military personnel that would have been involved. b) The Somali were a nomadic group therefore it was very hard and time consuming to suppress them. c) There was no economic justification for waging such a war on a highly unproductive territory. However, when the Somali murdered the British sub-commissioner for Jubaland, Mr Jenner, in 1900, the British dispatched a punitive expedition of Indian regiments against them.The Somali rose up again in 1905 against the British after they had procured Firearms. The Somali skirmishes continued into 1914 with the change of boundaries and finally ended in 1925 when Jubaland was put under the Italian Somaliland. ----- 259 ### **Results of the Somali resistance** a) There was massive loss of life, as many Somalis were killed. Sub-commissioner Jenner was also killed. b) The British divide the Darod and Hawiye clans through the boundary changes of c) The Somali cattle were confiscated. d) Somali lost their independence through the declaration of the protectorate status. e) The process of colonization by Europeans was delayed considerably. f) There was favorable boundary change that saw Ogaden being placed under Italian Somaliland. **Collaboration ** In Kenya, the Maasai, Wanga and a section of the Agikuyu, Akamba, and Luo collabo rated. **The Maasai collaboration** In the 19 [th] century, the Maasai community changed from a once feared community to one marred by succession disputes and natural calamities. The Disputes between Lenana and Sendeyo over succession of Mbatian after he died weakened the Maasai community to the level of merely collaborating with the British intruders. Sendeyo moved with his followers to northern Tanzania leaving behind Lenanas group who chose the path of collaboration. **Reasons for the Maasai collaboration with the British** a) Losses of the Maasai military supremacy. At the time the British came to Kenya, the Nandi had overtaken the Maasai in terms of military superiority. They therefore sought for foreignsupport against their aggressors. b) Internal feuds. There were a series of succession disputes in the period between 1850 and 1890 caused by differences in economic activities. In one of the disputes, when Lenana seemed to be losing to Sendeyo, he appealed to the British for support. c) Natural calamities/disasters. The Maasai country witnessed severe hunger, livestock and human diseases in the 1850s. These weakened them more making them unable to resist. d) Threat and wars from the Agikuyu. When the Maasai went to reclaim their women and children at the end of the hunger period, they were met with outright threat of attacks from the Agikuyu. They therefore sought British support. e) Prophecy of Mbatian. He prophesized the coming of a white man who was more powerful and that the Maasai should not bother to resist him. f) Lenana personally chose the path of collaboration because he wanted to consolidate his position and that of his kingdom. He was looking for the much needed military support to overcome his sibling, Sendeyo of the Loita Maasai. ----- 260 ### **The process of Maasai collaboration. ** The attempt by Lenana to secure assistance against Sendeyo was the beginning of his collaboration with the British.The Kedong massacre incident (Maasai warriors attacked a caravan of Swahili and Agikuyu traders travelling from Ravine) and the resultant death of 100 Maasai at the hands of three white men (Andrew Dick and two French companions) made the Maasai the immediately seek for collaboration with the British.They cooperated with the British in establishment of colonial administration. The provided mercenaries in the British punitive expedition against the Nandi, Kipsigis and Kikuyu. Maasai were rewarded with cattle acquired from uncooperative peoples e.g. The Nandi and Agikuyu They exchanged gifts and used British manufactured goods. Lenana was made a paramount chief. Between 1904 and 1923, a fair proportion of the Maasai agreed to be moved from one grazing land to another to pave way for British settlement.They signed the first Maasai agreement in 1904 by which they moved into two reserves, one to the south of Ngong and the railway and the other up on the Laikipia plateau. A corridor of five kilometres was set aside in Kinangop for the Eunoto ceremony that accompanied circumcision. The second Maasai agreement of 1911 implied the Maasai abandon the Laikipia plateau to rejoin others in the enlarged southern reserve. **Results of the Maasai collaboration** a) Lenana was made a paramount chief of the Maasai in 1901. b) The collaboration led to the separation of the Maasai related clans. The Purko Maasai were divided into the Loita and Ngong Maasai. c) There was massive land alienation with the Maasai being moved to the Ngong and Laikipia reserves and later the southern reserve. d) Maasai freedom in conducting rituals was curtailed with their confinement to a five square-mile reserve for initiation rites. e) The Maasai lost their independence. Just like any other part of kenya, Maasailand became part of the British protectorate. f) There was total disruption of their territorial integrity. Even their cattle economy was disrupted as the number of livestock was reduced. There was an attempt to cause them to abandon their nomadic habit. g) The Maasai gained material reward in form of cattle and grains looted from resisting communities like the Nandi and Luo of Ugenya. h) Their age old custom of livestock cross- breeding with their Samburu neighbours was disrupted with the curtailing of their migratory behaviour. Their stock was therefore weakened. i) Some Maasai were hired as mercenaries against the resisting communities such as the Nandi and Agikuyu. ----- 261 ### **Wanga Collaboration** Nabongo Mumia, the Wanga leader from 1880, was an ambitious and shrewd leader who had the desire to expand his Kingdom through collaboration with British intruders and soliciting their military assistance. **Reasons for Wanga Collaboration** a) Nabongo Mumia hoped that by collaborating, he would be made a paramount Chief of the entire western region. b) There was family rivalry over leadership. This compelled Mumia to seek help against his brother Sakwa. He wanted to safeguard his position at home. Key notes for the teacher and students- @Cheloti 2013 c) He wanted British protection against the Nandi, who were by then enjoying military superiority, the Bukusu and the Luo of Ugenya d) He wanted to revive a disintegrating kingdom. e) He wanted to take advantage of the British western civilization particularly education and religion. He also wanted material gains from the British. f) He aimed at achieving territorial expansion. Mumia aimed at ruling up to Kabras, Kimilili, Marama, Butsotso, Ugenya and Samia. g) He realized that his community was very small and it was futile to resist the militarily superior Europeans. h) Having realized that the British declaration of western Kenya as their sphere of influence was inevitable, he chose to become their ally at the earliest opportunity ever. **Process of Wanga Collaboration. ** Mumias contact with the outside world began when he befriended the Swahili and Arabcaravan traders and later the IBEA Company merchants when they visited wangaland.They built a fort and a trading station at Elureko, his capital, which was to remain the headquarters of the British administration in western Kenya until 1920. **Ways in which Nabongo of Wanga collaborate with the British. ** a) He offered his seat-elureko to become an operational base of the British expeditions. b) He offered his men to fight alongside the British in their expeditions against other communities. c) He provided Wanga agents to aid the British in administering the conquered areas. d) The Wanga provided food, water and shelter to the British invading forces. e) They gave the British free passage through their territory and offered them hiding places during the battles. f) Mumia signed treaties of friendship with the British. **Results of the Wanga collaboration with the British. ** a) Wanga kingdom was strengthened using military support from the British. Wanga kingdom was expanded. Nabongo gained more territories e.g. Samia, Bunyala and Busoko ----- 262 ### b) Their king Mumia was declared a paramount Chief thus raising his prestige. He ruled as a British paramount chief ruling as far as Bunyala, Gem, Ugenya and Alego, upto 1926, when he officially retired c) Mumia warriors became agents of the British colonialism. The warriors were used to subdue the Luo, Bukusu and Nandi. d) The Wanga Princes became agents of British rule over western Kenya. For example, Mumias half-brother Murunga was appointed chief of the Isukha and Idakho. e) Mumias headquarters at Elureko became the seat of British administration in western Kenya upto 1920 when it was moved to Kakamega. f) Mumia and his people gained material benefits from the British through trade, western education and religion. g) Nabongo Mumia became an important ally of the British administration in western ken\\ya, providing them with vital information over the appointment of chiefs and Headmen in western Kenya. h) Due to the Wanga Collaboration, there was intensified enmity and hostility between the Wanga people and other Abaluhyia subsections who viewed the Wanga as traitors. i) However, The Wanga, just like any other collaborator or resister lost their independence when Kenya was declared a British Colony in 1920. **Mixed reactions ** The communities that exhibited mixed reaction were the Akamba, Agikuyu and Luo. **The Akamba Reaction** The arrival of the British traders threatened to destabilize the prominence enjoyed by the Akamba as middlemen during the long distance trade. The British even tried to stop the Akamba from organizing raids on their Oromo, Agikuyu and Maasai neighbours. Why did the Akamba decide to resist British administration ? a) The British failed to respect Akamba traditions and customs. For example, the cutting down of the ithembo (shrine) tree for a flag post at Mutituni in 1891. b) When the Akamba attacked the Agikuyu, The British intervened against them. This was not taken kindly. c) The Akamba were protesting the misconduct of Company officials based at Machakos who stole from the local people and raped Akamba women. d) The establishment of colonial administration disrupted the long distance trade, which was the Akamba lifeline. e) The establishment of British rule meant loss of independence for the Akamba. f) The establishment of military posts in Ukambani without their consent. The British built a fort at Masaku in 1890. g) The British kept on disrupting their peace by sending military expeditions that resulted in death and massive destruction of property. h) The Akamba were also resisting forced labour. ----- 263 ### **Course of the Akamba resistance. ** In 1890, Nzibu Mweu led he Akamba in boycotting to sell goods to the company agents. Prophetess Syonguu also ordered the Iveti Warriors to attack the Masaku fort in the same year as a reaction to the cutting down of the ithembo tree for a flagpole.The British agents were defeated during this surprise attack.When the British tried to stop the Akamba raids on their neighbours in 1894, a Warrior, Mwatu wa Ngoma ordered the Akamba warriors, who had been inspired by medicinemen, to attack the British. The British responded with devastating consequences on the side of the Akamba forcing them into collaboration with the British District Commissioner, John Ainsworth. Mwatu wa Ngoma became a collaborator.Later, another gallant fighter, Mwanamuka, led the Kangundo people to attack the colonial police at Mukuyuni and Mwala, killing six. With the assistance of Maasai mercenaries, the British sent a punitive expedition against the Akamba and even confiscated their livestock.When Mwanamuka tried to blockade the Lukenya area to cut off communication between Fort Smith and Masaku, he was met with devastating consequences that forced him to also petition for peace. Why a section of the Akamba collaborated with the British . a) They had lost heavily during the Akamba-British war of 1894 causing them to fear the British. b) The ruthlessness with which the British attacked the Akamba scared many warriors into collaborating. For example, the Machakos station superintendent, Leith dispatched troops to deal with Syonguus forces in 1891, causing merciless killings and looting of property. c) Some especially the trades collaborated expecting material gains. d) Collaborators wanted to gain prestige. e) They wanted to get guns to be used in robbing for wealth. f) The Akamba had been weakened by the 1899 famine and were therefore unable to effectively tackle the British. **Reasons for the Akamba defeat** a) Some of the Akamba were not patriotic to the resistance course. Some self-serving opportunists allied with the colonial agents with the aim of enriching themselves thereby resulting in the Akamba defeat. b) Internally, the Akamba lacked territorial cohesion. It was therefore very difficult to coordinate a strong resistance to British rule among a highly segmented society lacking in a centralized system of government. c) Sections of The Akamba community experienced severe famine in 1899. They were weakened to the level of being unable to stage a gainful resistance to the British. d) The role of missionaries who pacified some sections to the level of collaborating with the intruders. The missionaries actively undermined their religious practices and traditional beliefs. ----- 264 ### e) When the Akamba caravan trade and raiding activities were disrupted, they had lost a significant source of livelihood and thus became weakened more. **Consequences of the Akamba reaction** a) The Akamba lost their independence as their territory was declared a British protectorate. b) There was massive alienation of Kamba land to pave way for white settlement. c) Many people, especially the Akamba warriors lost their lives during the confrontations with the British soldiers. d) The British interfered with the Akamba culture by cutting down the Ithembo tree and raping their women. e) The Akamba were subjected to heavy taxation in order to raise revenue for the colonial administration. f) Many of the Akamba men were forcefully conscripted into the Kings African Rifles to fight in World War I. **The Agikuyu reaction** The Agikuyu was also a highly segmented nature lacking in territorial unity. This explains why they had mixed reaction against the British. Explain the causes of Agikuyu resistance. a) The British failed to respect Agikuyu traditions and customs. The missionaries campaignedagainst female circumcision and Kikuyu forms of worship. b) Misconduct of company officials. They stole from the local people, killing some of them, and raped Agikuyu women. c) The Agikuyu were revolting against the forced supply of grains and water, by their women, to the British soldiers. d) There was massive land alienation, which had left many landless or pushed to unproductive land. e) Harassment of the Agikuyu, by British punitive expeditions. To enforce their policies, the British usually applied excessive force. f) The British had begun meddling in the Agikuyu internal affairs making them suspicious of their intentions. g) Fear of Loss of independence by some leaders like Waiyaki wa Hinga. h) The Agikuyu were reacting against the punishment meted on them by the British for raiding Fort Smith in 1892. Reasons why some Agikuyu collaborated . a) Agikuyu leaders like Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and Karuri wa Gakure wanted to derive personal wealth and prestige through collaboration. b) Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and Karuri wa Gakure hoped that by collaborating, they would be made paramount Chiefs among the Agikuyu. c) The collaborators wanted British protection against their enemies amongst the Agikuyu and other neighbouring communities. ----- 265 ### d) They wanted to take advantage of the British western civilization particularly education and religion. e) They also wanted material gains from the British through trading with them. f) The Agikuyu of Nyeri realized that it was futile to resist the militarily superior Europeans.They therefore chose to collaborate. **Organization of the Agikuyu reaction ** When captain Lugard established a fort at Dagoretti in 1890, he began relating with Waiyaki WA Hinga who was in charge of the area. Wayakis people supplied Lugards men with food.However, when Wilson took over from Lugard who had left for Uganda, his soldiers began looting food and livestock from the Agikuyu. The Agikuyu reacted by setting the Dagoretti fort on fire. Waiyaki was arrested by the forces sent by Sub- commissioner Ainsworth, and died enroute to Mombasa. It is alleged that he was buried alive at Kibwezi after provoking his captors.Kinyanjui WA Gathirimu, a collaborator, succeeded Waiyaki at Dagoretti. In 1899, Fort Dagoretti was closed down due to a series of raids. Francis Hall opened another Fort at Muranga (renamed Fort Hall after his death in 1901) after the locals were subdued and forced to accept the British Colonial rule. British trader John Boyes forged an alliance with Karuri WA Gakure, the Agikuyu leader at Fort Hall, which enabled him to subdue the resisting Agikuyu groups. He also made contacts with Wangombe of Gaki (Nyeri) who together with Gakure supplied the British with mercenaries in exchange for confiscated loots from resisting groups.Meinertzhagen, who succeeded Francis Hall in 1902, subdued the Muruku and Tetu section (led by Chief Gakere) of the Agikuyu. Chief Gakere was murdered and his associates deported to the coast after they wiped out the entire Asian caravan on the slopes of the Aberdares.The Agikuyu of Iriani (Nyeri) were defeated in 1904 and their Aembu and Ameru allies sought for peace in 1906, having seen the effects of resisting.By 1910, British rule had been established in the entire Mount Kenya region. With the Agikuyu settling peacefully in the reserves upto 1920s when they began to agitate again. **Results of the Agikuyu mixed reaction. ** a) The reactions fuelled mistrust, hatred and animosity in most of Kikuyuland. Such feelings of mistrust continue among the Agikuyu of Muranga, Kiambu and Nyeri up-to- date. b) There was massive alienation of Agikuyu land by the British with the help of the collaborators like Wangombe WA Ihura and Gathirimu who gave land to the British for construction. c) Some Agikuyu leaders amassed a lot of wealth and rose to prominence. For example, Karuri wa Gakure and Wangombe of Nyeri, d) The collaborators like Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and his people received western education and were converted to Christianity. e) There was massive loss of lives for the resisters. For example Waiyaki wa Hinga and many Agikuyu fighters were killed. ----- 266 ### f) The Agikuyu, both collaborators and Resisters lost their independence when their territory was declared a British protectorate. g) The Agikuyu wars of resistance forced the British to shift their administrative base from Fort Dagoretti to Fort Hall. h) There was massive destruction of property. The Agikuyu razed down Fort Dagoretti. The Agikuyu villages were burnt by the British. **The Luo reaction. ** The resisters were the Luo of Sakwa, seme, Uyoma, Ugenya and Kisumu. The collaborators were the Luo of Gem and Asembo, led by Chief (Ruoth) Odera Akango. **Reasons for the resistance against the British by the Luo of Ugenya. ** a) To protect their land and national heritage. b) To protect their freedom and independence c) Protect their livestock, grains and fish from being taken by the British soldiers who were undisciplined d) The Luo had become a formidable nation in the area and did not entertain any intruder. e) They were also provoked by the punitive expedition sent against them by Mumia and the British. **Why the Gem and Asembo Luos collaborated. ** a) Their chief, Odera Akango had been influenced by the Wanga Neighbours who had gained materially from their collaboration. b) Odera also needed British assistance to subdue the Luo of Seme, Uyoma, Sakwa and Ugenya, and the Nandi, who were a threat to his people. c) He realized the futility of resisting the British through the experience of his neighbours. **Course of the Luo resistance. ** The Luo of Ugenya set off the resistance by attacking the Wanga in an attempt to expand. They vandalized British key installations like the telegraph wires and administrative stations.In 1896, the British sent an expedition against them and 200 people were killed. When the British attacked the Seme Luo for cattle and Grains, they were provoked into revolting. They attacked the Asembo Luo who had collaborated with the British. The British invaded them in 1898 with devastating effects in terms of property and life loss. The Luo of Kisumu rose up in 1898 attacking a British Canoe party on Winam Gulf for taking their fish without paying. They were however overcome.The Gem and Asembo Luos led by Ruoth Odera Akango supported the British throughout all these confrontations. **Results of the Luo reaction** a) Both collaborators and resisters lost their independence to the British. b) The Luo lost their property through burning and looting. c) There was massive loss of lives, especially among the Ugenya Luo. ----- 267 ### d) It Bred hatred between the collaborators and resisters e) The collaborating communities were able to gain western education and religion as the British established schools and missions in their areas. f) The African leadership was replaced with the British administration, thereby undermining traditional political systems. g) The Luo were alienated from their land to pave way for the British occupation and settlement. **Colonial system of administration in Kenya** In their administration of Kenya, the British employed both central government and local government as the basic administrative framework. **Central Government** The protectorate was divided into provinces headed by Provincial commissioners, who acted as representatives of the Governor. The governor was answerable to the colonial s ecretary in Britain. **Hierarchy of colonial administration in Kenya** 1. Colonial secretary. Based in London, he was the political head of the British colonial administration and overall coordinator of the colonial policies as passed by the British parliament. 2. Governor. Reporting to the colonial secretary, he was the representative of the British government in the Kenyan colony. He headed the executive council which effected colonial policies and programmee he gave assent to laws from the LEGCO before they were implemented. 3. Provincial Commissioners. They represented the governor at provincial level and implemented the policies and laws that were enacted by the legislative council that was established in 1907. They supervised the work of DCs, Dos and the entire provincial administration on behalf of the governor. 4. District commissioners. They implemented policies and maintained law and order and security in their districts. They headed the District Advisory Committees. They coordinated the work of Dos and Chiefs. 5. District Officers. They implemented orders from the DCs and coordinated the work of the chiefs. They maintained law and order in their divisions. 6. Chiefs. They acted as a link between the people and the Governor at local levels. They maintained law and order at the locations and coordinated the work of headmen. 7. Headmen. They were a link between the government and the people at the grassroots level. They mobilized people for development within their villages. *NB. The principal function of Chiefs and Headmen under the Headmans Ordinance and * *Chiefs Authority Act was tax Collection and labour recruitment for public works and * *European settlers. Their duties were confined in the African reserves. * The advisory and Executive Councils guide the governor and effected the colonial policies. ----- 268 ### Local Government . The British introduced the Local Government in colonial Kenya because; a) They wanted to involve the local communities in administration of the region. This would reduce the costs of administration. b) They wanted to mobilize local people in resources exploitation in order to stir up development c) Local Government was a means of providing a legal forum for the local people to make decisions about their day to day affairs d) The Local Government would provide an important link between the Central government and the locals. e) The Local Government would provide a means through which the government would understand Africans better. f) It also originated from the desire by European settlers to safeguard a number of privileges for themselves by getting directly involved in local administrative units **Local Native Councils ** They were established in 1922 after the passing of the Native Authority Ordinance. In 1924, the District Advisory Councils (DACs) were renamed Local Native Councils (LNCs) **Objectives of the LNCs** a) To encourage and develop a sense of responsibility and duty among the Africans. b) To provide a mechanism through which educated Africans could articulate their grievances at District level. c) To ensure proper restriction of the Africans in their reserves. d) To provide a means through which the government would understand the Africans better so that to contain them. **Achievements of the Local Native councils ** a) The councils succeeded in restriction African political Agitations and other activities to their reserves. b) The LNCs provided basic social needs like water, cattle Dips, Public Health, Education and Markets. c) They succeeded in maintaining basic infrastructure in their areas of jurisdiction. d) They succeeded in collecting taxes to finance their operations. NB; in 1948, the LNCs were renamed African Native Councils. Pascal Nabwane became the first African chairmen of the ADCs in 1958. The ADCs operated as local authorities for Africans until 1963. **Impact of Local government ** a) It exploited local resources and initiated development. b) It created a link between the central government and the local people. c) It helped maintain law and order using the small police force set up in 1896. ----- 269 ### d) It promoted infrastructural development and general welfare of Africans. It used the levied taxes to improve social services such as schools and hospitals. e) It helped in the arbitration of African disputes through the District African Courts. E.g, Land disputes were settled by the LNCs. **Factors that undermined the local Government ** a) Shortage of trained personnel to work in the LNCs and ADCs. b) Poor transport and communication leading to poor coordination of their activities. c) Lack of adequate revenue to finance their operations as the colony lacked strategic mineral resources. d) There was a lot of rivalry between the settlers and the locals, later becoming the freedom struggles. This hampered the operations of the councils. e) Racial discrimination was so pronounced that basic services were absent in African areas. Many Africans survived through self-help schemes. **COLONIAL ADMINISTRATION ** The methods mainly used by the British to administer their colonies were ***1. Direct rule. *** 2. Indirect rile . **Difference between direct rule and indirect rule. ** Indirect rule was a system under which the British recognized the existing African political system and used it to rule over the colonies.Direct rule was a system where the Europeans/the British entrenched themselves in the direct administration of their colonies. Indigenous political and administrative institutions and leaders are replaced with European systems. **Indirect rule ** This was a policy advanced by Fredrick Lugard, the British High Commissioner in the protectorate of Northern Nigeria from 1900 to 1906.To Lugard, as summed up in his book, The Dual Mandate in the Tropical Africa (1922),the resident acts as a sympathetic adviser to the native chief, on matters of general policy. But the native ruler issues his instructions to the subordinate chiefs and district heads, not as orders of the resident but as his own.Such a system was applied in Kenya and in West Africa. **Why Britain used indirect rule in Kenya and Nigeria** a) Britain lacked enough manpower to handle all the administrative responsibilities in the colonies. For example, in the Nigerian protectorate, there were only 42 British officials by 1900. b) Lack of adequate funds for colonial administration from the parent government made her use the existing traditional political system as a means of cutting down the administrative costs. c) The use of indirect rule was a means of diffusing the expected stiff resistance from the Africans. The traditional rulers were to be made to feel that they had lost no power. ----- 270 ### d) The policy of administration had succeeded in India and Uganda, thus motivating them to apply it in Kenya and Nigeria. **British rule in Kenya** In Kenya, the British lacked both funds and experienced personnel to facilitate their administration. Kenya also did not have a reference model of an administrative system like that in Buganda Kingdom. It was only among the Wanga section of the Abaluhyia and the Maasai where traditional chiefs that were recognized by the British existed. Where the institution of chieftainship did not exist as the case of the Agikuyu, the British appointed chiefs (men with ability to communicate in Kiswahili and organize porters) like Kinyanjui WA Gathirimu in Kiambu, Karuri wa Gakure in Muranga and Wangombe wa Ihura in Nyeri. The passing of the Village Headman Act in 1902 gave the chiefs the responsibilities of maintaining public order, hearing of petty cases and clearing of roads and footpaths.The 1912 0rdinance increased the powers of the chiefs and their assistants (headmen); they were now allowed to employ other persons to assist them, such as messengers and retainers. They were to assist the District officers in Tax collection and control brewing of illegal liquor and cultivation of poisonous plants like Cannabis sativa. They were to control carrying of weapons and mobilize African labour for public works. ***The selected colonial chiefs however faced two problems; *** a) Most of them lacked legitimacy and were therefore rejected not only by the African elders who regarded them as nonentities, but also by the young generation who saw them as tools of colonial oppression and exploitation. b) Many of the colonial chiefs were young and inexperienced. c) Many of the chiefs also became unpopular since they used their positions to amass riches in terms of large tracts of land, livestock and wives. E.g Chief Musau wa Mwanza and Nthiwa wa Tama acquired 8000 herds of cattle and 15 wives respectively in kambaland.The structure of administration was as discussed earlier with governor being answerable to the colonial secretary in London. Below him were provincial commissioners, district commissioners, district Officers and Chiefs.All the administrative positions above that of the chief were occupied by European personnel. **The British in Nigeria. ** Nigeria comprised the Lagos colony and protectorate, the Southern Nigeria Protectorate and the Northern Nigeria Protectorate. These regions were later amalgamated into the Nigerian protectorate in 1914.In Northern Nigeria, Fredrick Lugard employed indirect rule. **Reasons for the use of indirect rule by the British in northern Nigeria. ** a) The system was cost-effective. There was need to reduce the administrative cost by using the local chiefs in administration while employing very few British officials. ----- 271 ### b) Northern Nigeria had communities with a well-organized centralized system of government complete with Islamic sharia whose use provided a base to govern the protectorate. i.e. The Sokoto Caliphate c) The vastness of the region coupled with the inadequate British administrative work force and Poor transport and communication network made it difficult for the British officials to effectively administer some parts of the region. d) The system would help dilute African resistances since governance was by local rulers. TheBritish were keen on guarding against the local resistance to their administration. e) The method ensured smooth transition from African to British dominion. It was a way of deliberately preparing Africans for self-government. f) Indirect rule had been tried successfully in Uganda and India. **Indirect administration as applied in northern Nigeria** In Northern Nigeria, the existing emirates with centralized system of administration formed thebasis of local governance. The Emirs were retained and were to rule under supervision of the British resident officials.The British administration was based on the local customs and laws. Chiefs chosen by the British were to be acceptable by the local people. Local chiefs collected taxes and a portion of it was given to the Central Government.Local Native Courts operated as per the laws of the land. The Emirs were allowed to try cases in their own Muslim courts.The Emirs were mandated to maintain law and order. They possessed firearms.In 1914, Northern and Southern Nigeria were Brought under one syatem of administration. However Lugard found it hard to apply indirect rule in Southern Nigeria. **Why indirect rule was not successful applied in southern Nigeria** a) Southern Nigeria lacked a centralized indigenous system of administration, which would have been vital in the application of indirect rule. b) The south had many ethnic groups, many languages and many disparities in customs, whichdenied it the homogeneity necessary for the application of indirect rule. c) The southern people were infuriated by the British introduction of new concepts like forced labour and direct taxes. d) The British did not give themselves time to understand the operation of the social, political and economic systems of the people of southern Nigeria. e) The educated elites in the south felt left out of the administration of their own country in favour of the illiterate appointees of the British. f) There existed communication barrier between the British supervisors, the warrant chiefs and the people, which sometimes led to misinterpretation and misunderstanding. g) The warrant chiefs sometimes misused their powers in tax collection and molesting women sexually. h) The brutish had used excessive force in dealing with any form of resistance and this made them unpopular ----- 272 ### **Problems associated with indirect rule as a system of government. ** a) Indirect rule could only e applied where centralized government was present. Its application in stateless societies often faced difficulties. b) Where chiefs were imposed, especially in the stateless societies, their authority lacked legitimacy and only resulted in suspicion and lack of confidence. This would lead to constant riots when they tried to exert their authority. c) Local people even in the highly centralized states looked at indirect rule as curtailing the authority of their local rulers and hence resented it. E.g the Yoruba state in Nigeria. d) Some inexperienced British officials tended to interfere too much with the vital African customs and practices e.g. among the Asante thus bringing further problems. e) Different administrations had different views on the degree of indirect rule to be applied hence confusion was created. It was difficult to draw a boundary between the advisory and supervisory roles of colonial powers. f) Language was a problem and there was need for interpreters. Communication was poor and made adaptation difficult. g) Education of chiefs was necessary but even this took a long time and needed patience and skillful knowledge which the British did not have. **Effects of indirect rule. ** a) The system led to transformation of the role of traditional African chiefs. they now began to recruit fellow Africans to provide labour to the colonial government and even fight in world war I. the chiefs thus became unpopular. b) The indigenous system of administration was modernized by the British especially in northern Nigeria. c) Many African chiefs used their positions to accumulate a lot of wealth at the expense of their people. Chiefs like Wangombe and Gakure in central Kenya acquired large tracts of land. d) Indirect rule created suspicion and mistrust between the educated elites and the traditional chiefs who were given power ib southern Nigeria. The elite reacted by forming political movements thus leading to growth of nationalism in Nigeria. e) Indirect rule helped preserve African cultures, unlike assimilation which sought to replace them. **DIRECT RULE ** This system was mainly used in regions with large white settler population such as Algeria, south Nigeria and Zimbabwe. **Direct rule in Zimbabwe ** Zimbabwe was colonized by the British South African Company under John Cecil Rhodes. Rhodes used his resources to sponsor a group of South African Europeans who set out to establish in Southern Rhodesia, a satellite of South African System. They began off by engaging the Ndebele in a series of wars from 1893 before finally occupying the fertile land in Mashonaland and Matabeleland. ----- 273 ### **Characteristics of direct rule in Zimbabwe** a) Zimbabwe had a large number of European settlers with their population rising to 50,000 by 1931. The whites therefore maintained an advantaged position throughout their administration of Zimbabwe. b) Many of the British settlers developed the attitude and consequently the belief that the territory was pre-ordained to be a white settler colony. c) The territory was administered by a commercial company (B.S.A.C) for a long period (1890-1923) d) An administrator below who was a long chain of European civil servants performing simple administrative duties headed BSAC. e) Direct method of administration was applied to the Africans who had initially resisted the intrusion. New chiefs were appointed to dethrone the traditional leaders. f) The Legislative Council that was begun in 1898 gave the European settlers political Rights to the extent that by 1923, they had attained some self-governance. g) The system was characterized by massive alienation of African Land compelling Africans to provide labour to the new European settlers. h) There was racial segregation which was effected through the Legislative Council. African communities suffered greatly in the hands of the settler regime. **Reasons for use of direct rule by the British in Zimbabwe** a) The British desired to fully control the economy of Zimbabwe and maximize on profit generation through direct involvement in administration. b) The Shona and Ndebele resistance against British intrusion made the them not to trust the Matabele chiefs nor use them as British agents c) There was lack of reliable political system to be used in indirect administration of the region. The local political institutions based on the Induna system had been destroyed when the British conquered and occupied Zimbabwe. d) Existence of enough B.S.A Co personnel on the spot who were familiar with the area as well as the British system of government. e) Favourable climatic conditions and the expected rich mineral deposits attracted many settlers who later provided the necessary personnel. f) There was a strong desire by the Europeans to be able to direct their own affairs and destiny without interference from within or without/The spirit nationalism **The BSAC administrative structure in Southern Rhodesia (1905-1923) ** The government was headed by a resident Commissioner who was appointed by the Company stationed at Salisbury. Below him were various commissioners in charge of the Districts (all Europeans). Below them were African Chiefs whose duty included collecting tax, recruiting labour and maintaining law and order.In 1898, a LEGCO was established heavily dominated by the European settlers. An Executive Council, consisting of the Resident Commissioner and 4 nominees of BSA.Co was also established. In 1902, a Native Affairs Department, headed by a European Native ----- 274 ### Commissioner was created thus entrenching the dominance of Europeans in Zimbabwe. The duty of the commissioner was to allocate land to Africans, collect taxes and recruit labour.For lack of enough valuable minerals in Zimbabwe as expected, the Europeans compensated by acquiring large tracts of land from African communities with some having grants of upto 3000 acre pieces of land.( Europeans occupied 21 million acres while Africans despite their majority were confined to 24 million acre reserves.) The Company relinquished control in 1923 to for Zimbabwe to become a crown colony. **Crown colony Rule (1923-1953) ** Why the settlers favoured crown colony over merger with South Africa. a) The merger would have led to domination by Afrikaners in their political matters. b) Their economic interests would have been neglected in favour of those of Afrikaners. As a crown colony, a Governor was appointed in 1923 to represent the Queen of England. British government was empowered by the constitution to veto any legislation that would discriminate against Africans. This however never happened practically. For example, the government formulated the Two-Pyramids Policy or parallel development policy characterized by discrimination against Africans. At the base of the pyramid was the majority Africans relegated to offering cheap labour for the white settlers. At the apex were the minority whites who took the highest positions in the economic and political system.To legitimize the two pyramids policy were two Acts that were passed in 1930 and 1934. **a) Land Apportionment Act of 1930** The Act introduced rigid territorial segregation with land being divided into whites and Africans portions. No African was allowed to acquire land outside their segregated portion.The minority whites acquired over half of the best arable land. Africans were given the semi arid areas infested by mosquitoes. Land was categorized into four; 1) Native Reserve Area- for Africans population. The Land was characterized with congestion since it was inadequate. 2) Native Purchase Area- for Africans to buy. Such areas had harsh climatic conditions. 3) European Area- For Whites only. 4) Unassigned Area- For government expansion of buildings and other uses. **Effects of the Land Apportionment Act on Africans** a) Many Africans became migrant labourers, moving to mines, towns and European farms to provide cheap labour since their land was unproductive. b) Large tracts of African land were alienated and they were confined to only 29 million acres while only 50,000 whites occupied 49 million acres of land. c) This exposed Africans to problems like overgrazing that further deteriorated their land. d) There was widespread poverty among Africans. For those on the reserves, they faced starvation, those in towns faced slum life. ----- 275 ### e) Africans suffered racial segregation in provision of social services in urban areas. f) There was disruption of social roles as African men moved to towns and settler farms. Women took over mens jobs in the reserves. g) Land apportionment became the seedbed for the rise of African nationalism in Zimbabwe. h) Africans were exposed to over taxation to compel them to provide labour to the Europeans. **b) The Industrial Conciliation Act of 1934. ** The prime objective of the Act was to protect white workers from African competition. The government through the act prohibited Africans from setting up a trade union. Africans from beyond southern Rhodesia were imported to provide labour to the whites at low wages.The act resulted in relegation of Africans to the lowest level while skilled jobs were set aside for the Europeans. The two acts resulted in the humiliating conditions for the Africans which resulted in the rise of African Nationalism that continued more after the Second World War.As an answer to African agitation, the government invited more white settlers giving them more large tracts of land. The settlers also began to agitate for the formation of a federation of the three central African territories (southern Rhodesia, Northern Rhodesia and Nyasaland).In 1953, the British government gave approval for the formation of the federation of central African countries. **The Central African Federation. ** The federation was organized as follows; 1) Each territory had its own government responsible for local administration. 2) Each territorial government was responsible for all aspects of native affairs within its boundaries. 3) The British government was directly involved in the administration of the two northern protectorates. 4) An African Board was established to ensure that no racist legislation against the Africans was passed in the federation parliament. 5) The Federal Parliament was given powers to deal with all matters involving more than one territory and foreign affairs.The first Prime Minister of the Federation, Garfield Todd, being sympathetic to African protests over formation of the federation, legalized the formation of trade Unions and funded African education and Agriculture. Unfortunately when Todd was replaced in 1958, all his programmees were abandoned. In 1963, the federation was dissolved and shortly afterwards Malawi and Zambia became independent as southern Rhodesia remained a self -governing colony. **The reign of Ian Smith** Ian Smiths Rhodesian Front Party, controlled by the white extremists with no regards for Africans, won the 1962 elections.On 15 [th] October 1965, Smith led the settlers to announce a Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI), from Britain implying that political leadership was now fully in the hands of the white rebel settlers. ----- 276 ### This declaration provoked instant protest not only within Africa but also from the international community. UN declared sanctions against South Rhodesia though countries like South Africa and Portugal unfortunately continued to trade with her making the sanctions ineffective.In 1970, UDI declared itself a republic under a new constitution that entrenched whites position in Zimbabwe by spelling the following; a) Voting qualifications for Africans were revised and were now based on income. This automatically disenfranchised the majority of Africans. b) The land tenure system was revised to enable the Europeans to purchase land from the government.Meanwhile the war of independence had began in 1966, provoked by the 1965 UDI declaration, with a patriotic front formed by Zimbabwe African National Union(ZANU) of Mugabe Robert and Zimbabwe African Peoples Union(ZAPU) of Joshua Nkomo waging a guerilla warfare.Zimbabwe became independent in 1980, with Robert Mugabe as the fits Prime Minister. **Effects of British rule in Zimbabwe. ** a) It led to African land alienation by white settlers/ Africans were displaced from their ancestral lands. b) The establishment of white settlement subjected Africans to abject poverty and suffering.Africans were subjected to intense economic exploitation through taxation and forced labour. c) African traditional economy was undermined as many of the Africans were forced to work for the Europeans. d) African interests were ignored in the day-to-day running of the colony. e) African traditional rulers lost their autonomy and became mere puppets of British administration. f) African cultures were undermined, for example through the separation of families as people sought alternative livelihood. g) The white settlers were to enhance the production of cash crops as transport, trade and industry were developed. h) Africans were denied freedom of movement and confined I reserves. i) Positively, it led to development of transport network the region. j) It led to introduction of new crops in the region k) It led to rise of nationalism as many Africans could no longer bear the burden of suffering in the hands of the whites. **ASSIMILATION ** **Definition. ** This was a system of administration in which French colonies were given a culture and civilization similar to that of France. This system was influenced by the French revolution of 1789, which emphasized the equality of all men.In Africa, it was perfected by Lewis Faidherbe in Senegal when he was governor from 1854 to 1865.To many historians Assimilation was a deliberate French policy to help them destroy African ----- 277 ### Chieftaincies and Kingdoms that were thriving at the time of their arrival. Under the system, Africans had to; ~ Learn the French language. ~ Practice the French legal system. ~ Apply the French civil and political system. ~ Convert to Christianity and learn French mannerism including eating and dressing habits.Later on assimilation evolved into association which had been first applied in Africa in central Africa by Savorgnan de Brazza.Association involved letting the subjects develop independently due to the belief that nonwesterners were racially inferior and would therefore never be accepted as equal to Europeans even when assimilated. **French administration in West Africa** The French system of administration was highly centralized.The eight French colonies were grouped into the confederation of French West Africa. They were governed from one capital, Dakar, Senegal.The federation was headed by a Governor-General answerable to the French Minister for colonies in Paris. Each colony was headed by a lieutenant- Governor answerable to the Governor-General in Dakar.Each colony was divided into cercles (provinces), each headed by a commandant de cercle. Each cercle was further divided into small districts each headed by a chef de sub-division below whom were African chiefs (chefs de cantons in charge of locations). At the base were chefs de village in charge of the sub-locations.All the French overseas colonies were seen as overseas provinces and each elected a deputy to the French Chamber of Deputies in Paris (lower House). However the French administrators appointed lacked high standards of education and some were military officers simply rewarded with senior administrative positions. This led to inefficiency. **French administration in Senegal** In Senegal, the policy of assimilation was only applied in the four communes of St.Louis, Goree, Rufisque and Dakar. In the rest of the country, African chiefs who ruled were put I three grades namely; a) Chefs de province: - equivalent of the paramount chiefs, they were usually successors of the pre-colonial chiefs. b) Chefs de Canton: - these were ordinary people appointed by the French officials due to their ability, to be charge of locations. They kept register of taxpayers the location, helped the government in conscription of Africans into the army and assisted in mobilizing forced labour for road construction and other public works. c) Chefs de village:- these were usually traditional heads of the community(village) who were given the responsibility of collecting taxes, maintenance of law and order, organizing relief during floods and locust invasion and maintaining roads I their areas. The privileges which were enjoyed by assimilated Africans in the four communes of Senegal included; ----- 278 ### ***Economic privileges *** ~ They were exempted from forced labour. ~ They were allowed to work in France. ~ They were exempted from paying taxes. ~ They were allowed trading rights like the French people. ***Political privileges *** ~ They were allowed to send representatives to the French Chamber of Deputies. ~ They were enfranchised like the French people in France (right to vote) ~ They enjoyed the rights of the French Judicial System like the French. ~ They were allowed to operate Local Authority structures which were similar to those in France. ~ They were allowed to retain Muslim law. ~ They were exempted from arbitrary arrest/through the Indigenization policy. **Characteristics of assimilation. ** a) Administrative assimilation. There was an administrative relationship between the French colonies and their mother country. Colonies were regarded as overseas provinces. b) Political assimilation. The colonies were represented in the French chamber of deputies thus maintaining a close political identity. c) Economic assimilation. The French currency was used in the colonies to enhance the economic relationship. d) Personal assimilation. Africans in the Quatre communes were given French citizenship and other privileges enjoyed by French citizens. **Reasons why assimilation was successful in the four communes** a) There was a high percentage of Mullato population within the communes, who readily accepted the French culture making it easy for the French to apply assimilation. b) Africans were familiar with Europeans and their culture due to long interaction with them through trade. c) Many people had converted to Christianity and this made it possible for the French to apply their policy. **Factors that undermined the application of the French policy of assimilation in West ** **Africa ** a) There was opposition by local people who did not want the French to interfere with their culture. b) The Traditional African rulers resisted the policy since they did not want to lose their authority and influence over the assimilated people. c) The French traders in West Africa also opposed the system they viewed assimilated Africans as a potential threat to their commercial monopoly in the region. d) The policy of assimilation ran the risk of undermining the very foundation of French colonialism, as it was not possible to exploit Africans who had attained the assimile status. ----- 279 ### e) Missionary school system of education undermined the French policy of assimilation since there was segregation in provision of mission education. f) Nationalism conflicted with the policy of assimilation. g) Assimilation was becoming too expensive to the French government especially because West African colonies were not self-supporting yet. h) The vastness of the French colonies made it difficult to supervise the implementation of the policy. i) Muslims resisted fiercely the French attempt to convert them to Christianity. j) Racial discrimination against the indigenous people also contributed to the failure of the system. This is because many Frenchmen never accepted assimilated Africans as their equals. k) The French citizens in the motherland opposed the policy as they feared being outnumbered in the chamber of deputies. **Ways in which Nationalism undermined the policy of Assimilation in French West ** **Africa. ** a) It emphasized loyalty or devotion to ones country and national independence or separatism, which were against the policy of assimilation. b) Nationalists agitated for boycott of anything of French origin. c) The nationalists created awareness on the value of African culture and systems; this encouraged Africans to condemn assimilation. d) The nationalists created awareness on the importance of African unity which exposed the hypocrisy of assimilation **Consequences of assimilation in Senegal. ** a) The policy of assimilation undermined African cultures, as many Africans embraced the French culture. For instance, the French language became the official language in the colony. b) The authority of traditional African leaders was eroded and even many were replaced by the assimilated Africans. c) The colony was incorporated into the French republic and regarded as an overseas province of France. d) Africans from Senegal were allowed to participate in the political matters of France. Some Senegalese like Blaise Diagne were elected as deputies in the French parliament. e) The spread of Islam was greatly frustrated, especially in the four communes where Africanswere converted to Christianity. f) A great rift emerged between the assimilated Africans, who were regarded as French citizens and the rest of African communities, who were subjected to taxation and forced labour ----- 280 ### **The policy of association. ** Under this system, the French colonial government was to respect the cultures of her colonial peoples and allow them to develop independently rather than force them to adopt French civilization and culture.Unlike the assimilated Africans, subjects retained their cultural practices e.g polygamy and Islam. The subject came under a system of law known as indigenat where the subject could suffer arbitrary arrest or be forced to serve a longer period in the army than assimilated citizens **Why the French government replaced the policy of assimilation with that of ** **association in 1945 ** a) The French had realized that assimilation would lead to equality between them and the colonized people. b) Assimilation was too expensive especially because West African colonies were not selfsupporting yet. c) The method clashed with the commercial interests. The French businesspersons and their friends in the colonial administration saw Africans as source of cheap labour. They therefore disapproved the idea of uplifting them. d) The French had realized that not all the colonial people could be assimilated. Only the elite ones among them could. Association aimed at transforming the Native elites into Frenchmen while allowing the other masses to learn enough French for communication purposes. e) They had realized that there was need to allow the colonies to enjoy the freedom of developing according to existing traditional political and social structure. / respect for the culture of her colonies. **The similarities between the French and the British colonial administrations ** a) Both methods emphasized the superiority of the colonial master and his overlord ship in Africa. The Europeans were in charge and took all senior positions. b) The administrative systems applied in both were meant to assist the colonial masters in controlling their territories in Africa. c) Both systems led to massive economic exploitation of resources in Africa. E.g. minerals, labour, and market land etc. d) In both Africans reacted to the systems in a hostile manner. e) Both methods led to loss of independence and freedom for the African. f) In both, every power trained a local army to maintain law and order. g) In both, Africans were oppressed through taxation and forced labour. h) In both, the position of chief was created where there was none. I.e. in Kenya, Southern Nigeria, and Somali. **Main differences** a) The British were keen to appoint traditional rulers as chiefs. The French on the other hand were not keen to appoint traditional rulers but simply handpicked individuals who met their qualifications (those who embraced French culture and civilization). ----- 281 ### b) The British gave the traditional rulers a lot of power, unlike the French who undermined African chieftaincies. c) The British colonies were administered separately by a governor accountable to Britain, unlike the French colonies which were governed as federations equated to provinces of France. d) Most of the French administrators were military officers. The British used a mixture of amateurs and professionals. e) Whereas the British applied mainly the policy of indirect rule, the French applied the policy of assimilation and later, association. f) The French colonies elected their representatives to the Chamber of Deputies in France, while British colonies had legislative councils where policies were debated in the colonies. g) Laws applied in the French colonies were legislated in France while in British colonies laws were enacted by the respective legislative assemblies. h) In French colonies, assimilated Africans became French citizens with full rights, while the elite in the British colonies remained colonial subjects. i) Indirect rule preserved African cultures while assimilation undermined them. **SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS DURING THE COLONIAL ** **PERIOD IN KENYA. ** **The Uganda Railway ** The railway was built between 1896 and 1901 with George Whitehouse as the Engineer. Work was mainly done by 32,000 Indian coolies and 5,000 clerks and craftsmen. The locals could not provide skilled labour. It costed the British taxpayers about 6 million sterling pounds. Reasons for the construction of the Uganda railway line. a) To promote trade with the outside world by encouraging the exploitation of available resources and enable the colony sustain itself b) To link Uganda with the Coast so that the British can achieve their strategic interests. c) To enable missionaries to go the interior to spread Christianity. d) To help stop slave trade since slaves would no longer be needed to ferry goods to and from the coast. e) To provide quick, safe and convenient means of transport for government administrators/troops f) Open up Kenya for economic development/to stop slave trade/promote legitimate trade g) To maintain law and order so that economic development could be achieved. h) To make Africans more productive and able to generate revenue in form of tax to the colonial government. i) To activate interior trade to enable transportation of imported goods to the interior of the colony. ----- 282 ### **The construction** The railway construction works commenced in Mombasa in 1896. By 1901, the railway had reached Kisumu (then Port Florence) passing through Nairobi in 1899. Numerous feeder lines were later laid down as follows; The Nairobi Thika Branch(1914), Konza Magadi (1915), Voi- Moshi(1918), Rongai- Solai (1925), Eldoret-Kitale(1926), Eldoret- Jinja (1927), Gilgil-Nyahururu(1929), Thika- Nanyuki(1930)and Kisumu Butere(1930) In 1948, the Kenya Uganda Railway had been linked with the Tanganyika network to become the East African Railways. **Problems experienced during the construction of the Uganda railway. ** a) There was insufficient labour since African labour force was not forthcoming. In the case of the Akamba and the Maasai, they were forcefully recruited. b) The climate of the interior was not suitable for the European labour force. The Europeans constantly fell ill, thus interfering with construction progress. c) The Arab rebellion under Mbaruk Rashid between 1895 96 at the coast delayed the railway construction. d) There was an additional expense of constructing special jetties since Mombasa port was not large enough. e) The Man-eaters of Tsavo created danger and havoc to the construction works. f) The rift valley terrain was difficult. It was rugged with many hills and escarpments thus causing difficulties in construction. g) Hostility of some Kenyan communities to intruders e.g. the Nandi who vandalized the railway and telegraph lines. h) Insufficient building material since most of them came from Europe and their delivery often delayed, **The effects of railway construction. ** a) It led to development of European settler farming in order to make the railway pay for its construction. b) There was rampant land alienation. The colonial government alienated African land for railway construction forcing communities like the Maasai and Nandi to move into reserves. c) There was rise of wage labour for the railway and later for the settler farmers. d) It led to growth of urban centres along the railway line e.g. Nairobi. e) Railway construction promoted economic growth of the East African region. This is because farm produce and other commercial products could easily reach market. f) It led to rise of large Asian settlement since many Indians were employed as railway workers. This Asians boosted trade in east Africa. g) It led to development of other forms of infrastructure like the roads and telecommunication lines. This stimulated trade development. h) It led to transfer of the administrative capital from Mombasa in 1905 to Nairobi. ----- 283 ### i) When the railway reached Kisumu in 1902, it led to major changes to the ad ministrative boundaries within East African region. Initially, the western region up to Naivasha was part of Uganda. j) The railway became a major revenue source for the colonial authorities. k) It facilitated the establishment of colonial rule in Kenya since it was possible for rapid movement of troops. l) It facilitated the cultural and social interaction among the different races. m) The railway made rural-urban migration and the resultant enterprises such as hawking and charcoal selling possible. n) Other forms of transport and communication developed and expanded along the ralwayline. For example: roads and telecommunications. o) Christian missionaries were able to move into the interior, where they established missionschools. **SETTLER FARMING AND COLONIAL LAND POLICIES** As a means of raising revenue to meet the cost of administering the Kenya colony and maintain the Uganda railway, the colonial government encouraged the influx of white settlers to the white Highlands. The administration did this by; a) Providing efficient railway transport connecting the coast and the interior b) Alienating of the white highlands for European settlement. c) Advertising the availability of free land in foreign newspapers d) Giving loan incentives e) Providing security The settlers however faced the initial challenges of crop and animal diseases, labour shortage, lack of inputs and African aggression. **Why the colonial government encouraged white settlement in Kenya. ** ***The reasons why the colonial administration led by Sir Charles Eliot (1900- 1904) and *** ***later Sir Edward Northey encouraged settler farming in the white highlands were; *** a) They hoped that settler farming would meet the cost of administration and railway maintenance. b) The British industries were also in need of cheaper raw Materials in an increasingly competitive European Market. These raw materials would be cheaply produced by the settlers. c) The settlers would also help control the prevailing Asian immigration and influence in Kenya. d) The colonial government wanted to make Kenya a white mans country by encouraging white settlers to form the backbone of the economy. e) Kenya Highlands had cool wet climate and fertile volcanic soils suitable for Europeansettlement and agriculture. ----- 284 ### f) There was need to get rid of social misfits in Europe and the landless who would be offered avenues in the Kenya colony. g) Existence of already willing entrepreneurs lake Lord Delamere and Captain Grogan who were ready to come to Kenya and engage in profitable agriculture. **Factors which promoted settler farming** a) The land policies availed cheap African labour to settler farmers. The alienation of African land and Creation of African reserves forced Africans to work in the settler farms. b) Africans in Kenya were not allowed to grow some cash crops in order to enable Europeans continue getting cheap African labour for their farms. c) The government built and maintained various forms of transport. For example the railway, Bridges and roads which facilitated faster movement of produce and inputs. d) The government Reduced freight charges in the importation and exportation of agricultural inputs and products. e) The government encouraged formation of cooperatives to help in the processing and marketing of produce. f) The establishment of financial institutions such as Agricultural Finance Corporation and Banks provided the settlers with credit facilities. g) The government availed extension services for crops and animal farming through the establishment of the Department of Agriculture and research stations to improve the quality of crops and animals. h) Trade tariffs were also removed and settlers were granted concessions. **Problems experienced by settlers. ** a) Inadequate labour as Africans refused to work. Bush clearance and preparation of land for cultivation was therefore a problem. b) Constant raids by the local inhabitants such as the Nandi, Maasai and Agikuyu threatened their peace and security. Some communities even raided their dairy farms for cattle. c) Some of the settlers lacked faring experience. Some of the settlers had not engaged in farming before and therefore lacked basic agricultural knowledge. d) Inadequate capital often hindered procurement of farm inputs. Machinery, labour. Some settlers became bankrupt and could not meet the day to day operational costs on the farms. e) Lack of proper knowledge on farming seasons hence crop failure. The climate and soils in the colony were alien to the settlers. f) There was the problem of poor transport and communication as it had become difficult for the government to network all areas occupied by settlers with roads and communication lines. g) Inadequate and unreliable market for their produce. They mainly relied on foreign market which could not serve in the case of perishable commodities. ----- 285 ### h) Pests and diseases were prevalent in the white highlands. The settlers were assailed by various human, animal and crop disease. **Settler Crop cultivation ** The main crops cultivated were coffee, wheat, tea and sisal. 1) Coffee . Coffee was first introduced by the Roman Catholic Fathers of St. Austins Mission near Nairobi in 1889. It required plenty of farm inputs in terms of chemicals and labour. Therefore was a preserve of wealthy European settlers.Coffee Planters Corporation was founded in 1908 by Lord Delameres Efforts, and led to the spread in the growing of coffee. By 1913, coffee had become the leading cash crop in Kenya grown mainly in Muranga, Thika and Kiambu.Africans were unfortunately not allowed to grow coffee until 1937 **Reasons why Africans in Kenya were not allowed to grow coffee before 1937** a) Europeans wanted to continue getting cheap African labour for their farms. This could not be available if Africans were allowed to earn some money through growing of coffee. b) European settlers did not want to compete with Africans in coffee growing. They feared that it would limit market for their produce. c) The settlers claimed that Africans did not have knowledge of growing coffee. They claimed that African participation in cash crop growing would lead to low quality products. d) They feared that diseases would spread from African farms to settler plantations. e) European settlers claimed that African farmers would produce low quality coffee due to inadequate resources. ***2) Wheat. *** It was introduced in Kenya in 1903 by Lord Delamere who experimented on his Njoro farm. It was however until 1912, when a more resistant variety was developed, that wheat growing took root in Kenya.In 1908, Lord Delamere set up Unga Ltd which boosted wheat farming in Kenya. It was grown in the Nakuru and Uasin Gishu areas. Like coffee, wheat farming was the preserve of wealthy European settlers from Australia, Canada, Britain and South Africa. Africans began to grow wheat only after independence. ***3) Sisal. *** It was introduced in Kenya from Tanganyika in 1893 by Richard Hindorf, a german Doctor. Initially, it was cultivated around Thika in 1904. By 1920, it had become the second largest income-earning crop after coffee.The main sisal growing areas included Baringo, Koibatek, Ol Donyo Sabuk, Ruiru, Thika, Voi, Taita and Taveta.Africans began growing coffee in 1964 though its growth declined due to the completion it faced from synthetic fibre. ***4) Tea. *** ----- 286 ### Tea was introduced in Kenya in 1903 around Limuru by Messrs Caine Brothers. It was until 1925 when tea began being grown successful with large tea estates being established by tea companies like Brooke Bond and Africa Highland from India.The main tea growing areas were Nandi, Kericho, Sotik, Nakuru, Muranga and Kiambu. **Stock rearing. ** Lord Delamere carried out many experiments in sheep and cattle rearing at his Equator Ranch in Njoro though the Maasai raids in his farm and cattle diseases frustrated his efforts.After cross-breeding exotic types with local stock, he came up with more resistant variety. The government also set up an experimental livestock farm in Naivasha. In 1925, the Kenya Cooperative Creameries was established due to Delameres efforts. Later, the Uplands Bacon Factory was established near Limuru to promote pig rearing. In 1930, the Kenya Farmers Association (KFA) was established Colonial land policies in Kenya.To empower the settlers to take up more arable land in Kenya, the Legislative council passed the following Land Acts or Ordinances; 1) The Indian Acquisition Act (1896). it empowered the authorities to take over land for the railway, government construction and public utilities. 2) The Land Regulations Act (1897). It allowed the government to offer a certificate of occupation and a lease of 99 years. This Act encouraged settlers to take up land left vacant by the Agikuyu due to drought and famine. 3) The East African Land Order in Council (1901). It defined crown land as all public land which was not private. The government could take up any land at will, sell it or lease it for use by settlers. 4) The Crown Land Ordinance (1902). It allowed the government to sell or lease crown land to Europeans at 2 rupees per 100 acres or rent at 15 rupees per 100 acres annually. 5) The Maasai Agreement (1904). It led to creation of the Ngong and Laikipia reserves while the settlers took up Maasai land for livestock farming. For example Lord Delamere in Nakuru. 6) The Elgin Pledge of 1906. The government through the British Secretary of State, Lord Elgin confirmed that the Highlands were reserved for settlers. This barred the Asian attempts to buy land in the highlands. 7) The second Maasai Agreement of 1911. The Maasai were pushed out of the fertile Laikipia reserve to pave way for more European settlement and large scale farming. 8) The Crown Land Ordinance (1915). This provided for land registration scheme for settlers. It defined crown land as land occupied by and reserved for Africans who could be evicted any time. Farm sizes wee increased from 5,000 to 7,500 acres. 9) The Kenya Annexation Order in Council (1920). It announced that Africans were tenants of the crown even in the reserves. 10) The Land Commission (1924). It fixed boundaries of the reserves, which were later legalized in 1926. ----- 287 ### 11) The Native Trust Ordinance (1930). It stated that African reserves belonged t the Africans permanently. 12) The Carter Commission (1932). It fixed the boundaries of the white highlands, leading to population pressure in the African reserves. All Africans were removed from the highlands into the reserves. 13) The Kenya Highlands Order in Council (1939). It fixed boundaries of the white highlands and reserved them permanently and exclusively for Europeans. **Effects of the colonial land policies ** a) The displaced Africans were confined to native reserves thus leading to congestion/overuse of land. By 1914, settlers like Lord Delamere and Captain Crogan owned 100,000 and 220,000 acres of land, respectively, at the expense of African congestion in the reserves. b) Africans who lost their land became poor. Many Africans became squatters and lived in misery and hopelessness. c) The situation in the reserves and the landlessness forced to supply labour in settler farms for wages in order to pay taxes. d) The displaced Africans moved to towns looking for employment. Their movement to towns led to growth of urban centres. e) The traditional socio-economic set-up of the Africans was disrupted. Communities could no longer migrate in search of better lands and pasture. Family roles changed as women increasingly took over headship of families while men sought for paid employment. f) The large European farms suffered acute shortage of labour as many Africans were unwilling to work on them. g) It led to the introduction of the Kipande System enforced by the Native Registration Ordinances of 1915 and 1920, to prevent the African labourers from deserting their duties on European farms. h) Taxes were imposed on Africans and were to be paid only in monetary form. This was meant to compel Africans seek for wage employment. i) The reserving of the highlands for the whites only denied Indians access to agricultural land, compelling them to resort to businesses and residences in urban areas. j) Loss of land led to bitterness and made Africans later to form political organizations to demand for their land/spread of nation **THE DEVONSHIRE WHITE PAPER. ** The Mandate of the League of Nations compelled Britain, just like any other colonial authority to institute reforms that would involve addressing African grievances. Governor Edward Northey who had given many concessions to the settlers was recalled to Britain in 1922. **Other reforms that were instituted were; ** a) Abandonment of Racial segregation policy in Kenya except in the highlands. ----- 288 ### b) Allowing Asians to elect four members to the Legco, which was initially settlerdominated. This however was not done until 1933.In March 1923, settlers in a form of protest to these reforms sent a delegation to London to try to settle scores with the Secretary for Colonies, the Duke of Devonshire. The fundamental set of principles that were issued in this meeting are what came to be known as the Devonshire White Paper. **Factors that led to the issuing of the Devonshire white paper. ** a) The influence of The Dual Mandate. This was a book of the League of Nations that had regulations concerning colonial mandates. Britain was committed to the principle of trusteeship whereby she was interested on its African population than European settlement b) The rise of race conflicts i.e. Africans versus European dominion and European versus Asian conflicts. The Indians were opposed to the privileged position of European settlers. c) The banning of racial segregation .The decision by the colonial government to ban racial segregation apart from the white highlands only, disappointed the settlers who wanted the ban lifted hence they sent a delegation to London to see the colonial secretary. d) The African general resentment. Their resentment was on land alienation, forced labour, taxation system, kipande system, low wages and no political representation. **Terms of the Devonshire White Paper** a) White highlands were reserved for European settlement only b) Indians would be allowed to elect five members to LEGCO not on a common roll, but on a communal roll. c) Racial segregation was abolished in all residential areas. d) Restriction on Indian immigration was lifted e) A nominated missionary was to represent African interests in the LEGCO. f) The European Settlers demand for self government in Kenya was rejected. g) African interests were declared paramount before those of immigrant races if there was a conflict. h) The settlers were to maintain their representation in the LEGCO. i) The Colonial Secretary was given mandate to exercise strict control over the affairs of the colony. **Implications of the Devonshire white paper. ** The issuance of the paper left the Settlers, Asians and Africans more dissatisfied than ever before as follows; On the part of the settlers; a) The Indian call for equality, to them, was unrealistic since they could not stomach the mixing of Oriental and Western cultures in Kenya. b) Since European culture was superior, they felt that racial segregation was justified in all spheres. c) To the settlers, instead of giving in the Indians grievances, they would rather give in to African demands since they had moral rights to protect African interests. ----- 289 ### d) To them, the white highlands were primarily theirs and they had a legal claim over ***On the Asian part; *** a) They wanted equality of all races instead of settler dominance in Kenya especially pertaining to settlement in the white highlands. b) They opposed policies on residential segregation and restriction on their immigration. The government was inviting more settlers to check Indian immigration into Kenya by this time. c) They wanted direct and adequate representation in the Legco based on a common roll free election (not communal roll). d) They objected separate taxation for Europeans and Indians and segregated education. The Devonshire White paper was therefore viewed as the product of the struggle between the Asians and the Europeans. The paper made the Asians join their African comrades in the struggle for freedom, especially in the trade Union Movement.Settler dominance In Kenyan affairs continued upto 1963 despite recommendations done in the white paper. **Results of the Devonshire white paper** a) The Devonshire white paper saved Kenya from becoming another Rhodesia or South Africa.The European demand for self-government was rejected. b) In theory, settlers dominance was weakened but in practice, the white paper upheld the dominance of the settlers more than that of the Africans e.g. segregation in residential areas in towns continued, they dominated the economy because they retained the white highlands. c) The paper did not satisfy the Asians since they did not gain access to the white highlands. d) Although many Asians came to Kenya, the Asians did not achieve equality with Europeans through a Common Roll. The Indian congress refused to cooperate with the government; they declined to hold elections for the Legislative Council seats offered to them. No Asian seats, five in all were occupied until 1933. e) Africans were to be represented by a nominated missionary, John Arthur, instead of representation by an African. For the first time, Africans were represented in the Legco. f) The Devonshire White Paper Benefited the Africans by declaring/recognizing Kenya as an African country where African interests should be paramount g) It failed to resolve African land and labour grievances. h) It sensitized the Africans on their plight leading to formation of politi cal parties. **URBANIZATION ** Towns that were already in existence before the advent of colonialism include Mombasa, Lamu and Malindi. Many other towns in the interior grew during the colonial period. **Factors which led to the establishment of urban centres in Kenya during the ** **colonial period ** ----- 290 ### a) Development of transport network. Construction of roads and the Uganda railway led to growth of some towns as transport terminus or along the transport lines e.g. Nairobi, Voi, Nakuru and Kisumu. b) Growth of trade in the interior of Kenya. Most towns began as trading centres for Indian commercial entrepreneurs. E.g Machakos, Nakuru, Kisumu, Nairobi and Voi. c) Development of administrative posts. The colonial government established administrative posts in various parts of the country. These posts later grew into urban centres. E.g Fort Hall, Embu, Kapsabet, Meru and Garissa. d) Rural-urban migration. The movement to urban areas by African labourers from various parts of the country led to further growth of urban centres. e) Development of agriculture. Settler farming led to growth of towns like Eldoret which began as agricultural collection centres f) Development of Agro-based industries like flour mills, meat-processing plants and sawmills which attracted labourers from all parts of the country to be transformed into urban centres. g) Development of mining activities. This stimulated development of industries in the mining areas leading to urban growth. E.g. Kakamega, Athi River and Magadi. **Why Africans moved to urban areas in colonial Kenya. ** a) The Urban centres had recreational facilities and social amenities which attracted the Africans, fed up with hardship conditions in the reserves. b) The Africans expected Job opportunities with better wages in the towns where there were industries as compared to the rural areas. c) Some Africans were escaping from forced labour and taxation. d) The African entrepreneurs wanted to take advantage of the wider markets in the towns to escape poverty in the crowded reserves. **Ways through which the colonial government controlled Africans migration to ** **urban centers. ** a) Taking headcount of those who were supposed to live in urban centres b) Enacting strict rules about migration into urban centre c) Creation of African reserves d) Ensuring that only those who had specific activities to undertake in the urban centres lived there e) Introduction of kipande system. **Positive effects of urbanization during the colonial period. ** a) It promoted interaction between people of diverse ethnic and racial backgrounds, who exchanged ideas and experiences. The centres became seedbeds of political activities that eventually culminated into the struggle for independence. b) Urbanization promoted national integration and instilled a sense of nationhood among Kenyans as it watered down the differences and prejudices between communities. ----- 291 ### c) The welfare associations formed by Africans in urban areas, like the Bara Association in Mombasa for all hinterland people, united them for a common cause by lessening ethnic hostilities. d) Through sporting and cultural activities that took place in towns, relationships between different ethnic groups and races were cemented. e) Many Africans benefitted from the numerous employment opportunities as shoe shiners and repairers, charcoal sellers, hawking in industries and in European homes. f) Due to the Abundance of labour and raw materials, industries in urban areas expanded further. **Negative effects of urbanization during the colonial period in Kenya ** a) There were inadequate housing facilities to meet the demands of the people. This led to overcrowding especially in slums/shanties led to the outbreak of diseases. Lack of planning of housing led to poor drainage and sanitation facilities. b) Africans in urban areas were subjected to racial discrimination. The social services provided to the Africans were inadequate and of poor quality. Even houses in towns were occupied according to the various racial groups, with Europeans enjoying the best facilities. c) Increased population in urban centres led to serious water shortages. d) Establishment of industries in urban centres led to pollution of the environment, whichaffected the health of the inhabitants. e) There was rampant unemployment as urban centres could not cope with the large influx of labourers and increased competition for the available jobs f) Many unemployed people in urban areas got involved in social vices / crimes such as drug abuse, alcoholism and promiscuity, due to desperation and poverty. g) Africans working in urban centres received low wages with employers taking advantage of the high supply of labour, which affected their standards of living. h) The mass rural-urban migration brought about intensification of migration regulations to control the numbers of African migrants. The Kipande system became stricter. i) Economic activities in the rural areas were disrupted by the absence of men who had moved to urban areas. Women took up mens roles. **EDUCATION AND HEALTH ** **Education. ** Formal education in colonial Kenya was provided by four groups; ~ The Christian Missionaries. ~ The Colonial government through local councils. ~ The Africans themselves. ~ Community organizations(Asians) Major milestones in the development of education in Kenya during the colonial period. ----- 292 ### Initially, the provision of education was the preserve of the missionaries. For example, the Church Missionary Society (CMS) pioneered by setting up a school at Rabai in 1844 and another in Mombasa in 1873. **Features of Missionary education ** a) It was elementary. The subjects taught included religion, writing, reading, reading, hygiene and arithmetic. b) It was industrial and technical in approach, aiming at training Africans to be carpenters, masons, agricultural assistants and shoe repairers. c) It was denominational and aimed at inculcating doctrines of a particular church in the learners. **Objectives of Missionary education. ** a) To impart in the Africans Agricultural Skills in order to promote settler farming. b) To give the Africans basic technical skills to improve their industrial knowledge. c) To train some Africans as Catechists to enhance the spread of Christianity. d) To offer Africans basic literacy and numeracy to read the bible and do simple arithmetic.Education development in Kenya in the period between 1904 and 1963 was facilitated by the following factors; 1) The WWI ex-soldiers experiences which convinced them of the advantage of higher education. 2) Increase in African nationalism that demanded for better education for Africans. 3) The need to produce better and more skilled manpower for the future independent Kenya. 4) Primary education had produced qualified children who needed higher education. In 1911, the colonial government agreed to share the burden of providing education to Africans with the missionaries. In 1913, the first Government African School was started at Machakos. It became a centre for Technical and Teacher training. In 1918, the education commission made the following far-reaching recommendations to the government in line with the Fraser Commission report of 1908 which had recommended a racially segregated system of education; a) Provision of technical education to Africans. b) Maintenance of racially segregated Schools. c) More cooperation between the colonial government and the missionaries. d) Appeals for grants-in-aid for mission schools. In 1924, a commission came to Kenya (the Phelps Stokes Commission) to look into the education situation. It recommended that Africans should receive Practical AgriculturalOriented Education suitable for rural areas. Other recommendations included; a) That there should be a uniform system of education in all government and missionary schools. ----- 293 ### b) That sufficient training for teachers and related personnel should be enhanced by establishing colleges. c) That schools should be built in the rural areas. This was done through the education ordinance of 1924. Due to its recommendations, the Native Industrial Training Centre was built at Kabete in 1924 and Jeanes School, Kabete (1925) for offering technical and industrial education. Other schools were started later at Kapsabet, Kajiado, Tambach, Kitui, Kwale, Kabianga and Kapenguria.The 1924 Education Ordinance created an advisory committee on African education. The representation to the committee was missionaries, colonial officials and settlers. The same year, more schools were built with the assistance of the newly formed Local Native Councils. In 1931, another Education Ordinance helped in the establishment of Kakamega GAS In 1932, Kisii GAS in 1934, and Kabianga. Finance for African education was to come from the colonial government.From 1925, the missionaries began providing advanced level education to Africans. Initially secondary education was the preserve of the Europeans. In 1926, the Alliance of protestant missionaries set up Alliance High School. Catholics established Kabaa in 1927 and Mangu School in Thika in 1930 for Africans. In 1938 and 1939, Maseno and St. Marys Yala were started as secondary schools. **Achievements of missionaries in provision of education. ** a) They designed a curriculum with emphasis on agriculture, tailoring, masonry and carpentry. b) They established the first secondary schools for Africans such as Alliance (1926), Kabaa (1927), Maseno (1938 and Yala (1939). c) They trained African teachers to man the Bush Schools (schools found in remote areas consisting of mud huts with grass-thatched roofs) and teach in independent schools. d) They offered the necessary financial and material support to make these schools operational. Secondary schools for whites included Prince of Wales (Nairobi School), and Duke of York (Lenana School) for European boys, Kenya Girls High School (Kenya High) and Limuru Girls for European Girls.Schools for Indians include the Asian Railway School (1904) and other schools developed by the government in Mombasa and Nairobi. Also community-based schools like Allidina Visram and the Arya Samaj Foundation.Hospital School became the first multi-racial school in 1953.In 1934, a District Education Board was created to plan education in districts, establish primaryschools and manage the schools.In 1949, the Beecher Committee was instituted to look into African education From 1961, Asian and African pupils begun to join European schools.Provision of elementary education by Africans was pioneered by John Owalo of the Nomiya Luo Mission in 1910. ----- 294 ### **University Education. ** Africans in Kenya got opportunity for university education at Makerere which was established in 1922 initially as a technical college and became an affiliate of the University of London on 1949. In 1954, the Royal Technical College, Nairobi began to offer higher education and became an affiliate of the university of London in 1959 to offer the first degree courses in 1961 when it became known as the royal college. **Community based education** This was done mainly by Asian families of Ismaili and Arya Samaj for the Indian traders in urban areas. Allidina Visram, A wealthy man, also established centres of higher education. **African Role in educational provision** Africans began their own schools for the following reasons; a) They wanted to protect certain cultural practices like feral circumcision and polygamy. b) They wanted to access higher education, since the government and missionaries were only offering them technical and industrial education, so that to be able to compete for the white-collar jobs with other races. c) They would also use the schools as a forum to air their grievances and to create political awareness in their community. The Nomiya Luo Mission built several schools in Nyanza between 1908 and 1910. Other schools were built in Gem-Luanda region between 1913 and 1918 and in central Kenya in 1923 in Kiambu. In 1934, the Kikuyu Independent Schools Association (KISA) and the Kikuyu Karinga Education Association founded more schools. In 1938, Githunguri Teacher Training College had been established under Mbiyu Koinange. **Health. ** **Developments in provision of health services in colonial Kenya** Initially, just like in the case of education, the Christian missionaries were concerned with provision of health services in colonial Kenya. The colonial government was majorly concerned with eradication of plague, malaria and sleeping disease which the Pioneer European settlers suffered from. Preventive medicine was later introduced to help stop various infections of killer diseases.The Church of Scotland Mission and the Church Missionary Society soon opened medical facilities in Kikuyu (1902), Kaimosi (1903), Kaloleni (1904) and Maseno (1905). Dr, Arthur, a missionary and pioneer doctor, put up the Thogoto Mission Hospital in 1907 and the facility exists prominently upto today as the Kikuyu Eye Unit Hospital and Kikuyu Rehabilitation Centre. **Objectives of the Health centres. ** a) To eradicate diseases such as smallpox, malaria and sleeping sickness. b) To train medical personnel to handle western medicine. c) To improve health and hygiene for Africans and Asians in towns where they lived in overcrowded areas lacking in sanitary facilities. ----- 295 ### Africans began being trained in the provision of emergence health services during the first war. (The East African Medical Corps was formed). Between 1919 1922, missionaries began to train Africans as Medical Dressers and Dispensers. After the opening of the Alliance medical college in 1920 and the establishment of a Medical training centre under the Nurses and Midwives Ordinance many African school leavers trained as laboratory and pharmacy assistants.A Public Health Ordinance was passed in 1921 giving the Medical Department powers to institute measures for the control of malaria and prevent communicable diseases. As a follow up to the 1921 Ordinance, new health units were established in the four different African reserves. The Rural Dispensary System was established to supplement the missionary efforts in provision of health care. Health centres were built in rural areas as part of the colonial government efforts to improve health facilities.After 1945, the Development and Research Authority (DARA) gave 47,000 sterling pounds for health care and improvement of health services. In 1949, the Bureau of Medical Research was set up as an agency of the East African High Commission.In 1950 King George IV hospital (today the Kenyatta National Hospital) was started as a hospital for Africans and in 1951, it started training female nurses.By 1962, there were over 100 rural health centres in the country. **Role of Africans in Health Provision** Africans were more pre-occupied with superstitions and over-reliance on traditional medicine which negated their participation in provision healthcare..The traditional medicinemen were dismissed by missionaries despite their wealthy knowledge on herbal Medicine. Today, many people rely on traditional herbalists to compliment healthcare provision. **POLITICAL DEVELOPMENTS AND STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE IN ** **KENYA (1919-1963) ** **Early Political Organizations In Kenya Upto 1939** African participation in the First World War contributed to rapid political developments in Kenya in the following ways; a) When many African from different communities and countries met, they realized that they shared numerous interests and problems which necessitated political unity. b) The Africans disapproval of the Whitemans immortality during the war, as he could also get wounded, die and suffer like them. This motivated them to strive for equal rights when they came back. c) The introduction of many unfair measures after the war made their lives difficult. For example, governor Northey introduced the Soldier settlement scheme in 1919 to settle British ex-soldiers while African ex-soldiers got a raw deal. **Other factors for the rise of early political organizations included; ** a) The introduction of the Kipande system in 1920 which was used to force Africans to provide labour for the European settlers. ----- 296 ### b) The replacement of the Indian Rupee with the shilling in 1921 meant that those in possession of the rupee had valueless money at a short notice. c) The reduction of African wages and the increase in hut tax and poll tax in 1920 from 10 to 16 shillings. d) The change of status of Kenya from a protectorate to a colony in 1920 which d awned on the Africans that the Whiteman was here to stay unless this move was fought. **Kikuyu Association ** This was the first political organization in Kenya. It was founded in 1920 by Loyalist Kikuyu chiefs, concerned about the continued grabbing of African land for European settlement.They also complained about the planned reduction of African wages after the replacement of the rupee with the shilling, the kipande system which they equated to slavery.The patron was Paramount Chief Kinyanjui wa Gathirimu and Chief Koinange wa Mbiyu was the president. The secretary was I.M.Ishmael. Other members were Josiah Njonjo, Philip Karanja, Mathew Njoroge and Waweru wa Mahui. The Association, being made of loyalist chiefs, was never aggressive in its demands. The members therefore failed to get any meaningful concessions from the government.Later, Harry Thuku and Abdalla Tairara joined the association together with other Christian converts who were labourers, colonial house servants and clerks in Nairobi and central Kenya.When Thuku tried to introduce radicalism in the Association, he was forced to decamp on 7 [th] June 1921 and founded the Young Kikuyu Association. **The East African Association. ** It began off as Young Kikuyu Association (YKA) in 1921 having been inspired by the Young Buganda Association in Uganda. Its founders included Harry Thuku, Abdalla Tairara, Mwalimu Hamisi and Muhamed Sheikh.Harry Thuku, the leading founder of this association was a mission educated elite who was working as a telephone operator in Nairobi. He became dissatisfied with the nonaggressiveness of the Kikuyu Association which was dominated by loyalist chiefs, in pressing the colonial government for Africans demands.YKA being very aggressive demanded; ~ The return of African land. ~ Better working conditions for Africans. ~ Reduction of taxes. ~ Withdrawal of Kipande system which had been introduced in 1920. ~ Increase in wages. YKA incorporated other ethnic community members thus necessitating it to change the name to the East African Association in July 1921. The officials included Harry Thuku (Chairman) George Samuel Okoth, Abdalla Tairara, Kibwana Kambo, Jesse Kangethe, Z. K. Sentongo from Uganda, Maitei ole Mootian, Molanket ole Sempele from Tanzania, James Mwanthi and Muhamed Sheikh. EAA became a very popular association in the 1920s attracting huge crowd in its meetings. ----- 297 ### **Grievances of the East African Association ** ~ They were demanding for the removal of the status of Kenya as a colonial territory. ~ They were demanding for a common roll for all in the legislative council elections. ~ They wanted the return of the alienated land, back to African owners. ~ They were opposed to forced labour. ~ They wanted more educational facilities and opportunities for Africans. ~ They were demanding that all labour in urban areas be paid fair wages. ~ They wanted the compulsory selling of cattle be stopped. ~ Removal of Kipande System. ~ Protested European domination of government. ~ Wanted hut tax that was exclusively paid by Africans abolished. Due to the radical approach that was adopted by Harry Thuku, the colonial Governor had him arrested on 15 [th] March 1922 and detained at the Kingsway Police Station (now Nairobi Central Police Station). On 16 [th] March 1922, a Kikuyu Woman, Muthoni Nyanjiru, challenged the African men to violence demanding the release of Thuku. More than 21 people including Muthoni Nyanjiru, were killed when the police opened fire on the over 1000 people who were surging forward.Harry Thuku was deported to Kisimayu. His colleagues Waiganjo and Mugekenji were banished to Lamu as EAA was banned. **Consequences of Harry Thukus arrest** a) The political parties that succeeded the EAA continued using even more radical approach when they realized that the colonial government was determined to continue using Iron Rule in Kenya. b) Governor Edward Northey was recalled to London by the then Colonial Secretary, Sir Winston Churchill due to the way he mishandled the Thuku affair. c) The colonial government did not allow formation of any other countrywide political Associations among Africans until 1945. d) Thuku became the undisputed flag-bearer of Kenyan Nationalism prior to formation of later political parties. **The kikuyu central association. ** When EAA was banned, its former officials Joseph Kangethe and Jesse Kariuki founded the Kikuyu central Association. It was formed in 1924 at Kahuhia, Fort Hall with Kangethe becoming the president and Henry Gichuru, secretary. Job Muchuchu (Treasurer), James Beauttah (secretary-general) and Jesse Kariuki (vice-president). All these were extremist politicians whose activities were closely monitored by the government. **Grievances of the Kikuyu Central Association. ** ~ They were demanding for the removal of the 1915 Crown Land Ordinance that made Africans mere tenants and not real owners of their land. ~ They were demanding for African representation in the Legislative Council. ~ They were opposed to forced labour. ----- 298 ### ~ They wanted free primary education as opposed to the colonial education system. ~ Establishment of a secondary school, training facility for hospital workers and a school for girls. ~ Removal of kipande system. ~ They demanded that all colonial laws be translated into Gikuyu Language so that all members of the community could understand them. ~ They demanded for the appointment of a well-educated Paramount Chief elected by the majority of the Agikuyu. ~ Wanted hut tax abolished and other taxes reduced ~ They advocated for the growing of coffee and other cash crops by Africans. ~ To work towards the restoration of alienated African land. ~ To pressurize the colonial government to abolish racial segregation. ~ Respect of African culture & customs e.g. Circumcision/polygamy ~ Agitating release of political prisoners e.g. Harry Thuku. By 1925, KCA had attracted membership from all large urban centres in Kenya and the Kikuyu squatters in the Rift Valley. They presented their demands to Governor Grigg when he visited Fort Hall in 1925.In 1927, KCA relocated its headquarters from Muranga to Nairobi in order to link up with other Kenyan elites. In 1928, Jomo Kenyatta became its Secretary- General, taking over from James Beauttah who had been transferred from Nairobi in an act of sabotage by the government. Kenyatta started the Association newspaper, Muigwithania which was instrumental in reviving the cultural values of the Agikuyu.When the Hilton Young Commission was formed in 1927 to look into the question of the federation of Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika, KCA through Jomo Kenyatta presented the following demands to it; ~ Introduction of free primary education for Africans. ~ Provision of secondary and higher education for Africans. ~ Abolition of kipande system ~ Appointment of Africans to LEGCO ~ Release of Harry Thuku ~ Giving of Title Deeds to Africans as a guarantee against any further land alienation. ~ Rejection of the proposed East Africa Federation KCA championed female circumcision arguing that it was a beautiful cultural practice which eradicated prostitution in the community. When the Church of Scotland Mission, African inland Mission and CMS expelled all sympathizers with the practice from their missions, KCA responded by leading the pack in the beginning of independent schools and churches.KCA sent Jomo Kenyatta, accompanied by Parmenas Mukiri, to present Agikuyu grievances in 1929 to the colonial office in London. It also helped kikuyu elders in preparing evidence to the Kenya Land Commission in 1931.Rivalry for power within the KCA between 1931 and 1938 nearly rocked the association.The Association was banned in 1940 alongside others. ----- 299 ### **Kavirondo Tax Payers and Welfare Association ** It started as Young Kavirondo Association (YKA) in December 1921 at a Baraza held in Ludha, central Nyanza, by mission educated Luo and Luhyia men. The meeting was meant to discuss issues affecting African communities.The official of the Association were Jonathan Okwiri (chairman), Simon Nyende (Treasurer), Benjamin Owuor (secretary), Rueben Omulo, Ezekiel Apindi, George Samuel Okoth, Mathayo Otieno, Joel Omino and Jolmeo Okaka. The demands of the YKA included; ~ They were demanding for addressing of the problem of change of the status of Kenya from a protectorate to colonial territory. ~ Demanded for a government school to be built in central Nyanza. ~ Demanded for a self- government for nyanza province with a separate legislative council and an elected African president. ~ They were opposed to forced labour and labour camps. ~ An end to land alienation. ~ Creation of the position of paramount chief for central and southern Nyanza, just like Mumias was for northern Nyanza. ~ Removal of Kipande System. ~ Demanded to be given title deeds for their land. ~ Wanted hut tax removed. ~ The advocated for better wages. The members presented their demands to the Nyanza PC in May 1922 and met governor Northey in Kisumu in July 1922 at Nyahera in Kisumu. The governor agreed to authorize the closing down of labour camps and reduce taxation. However, the revocation of the Crown Colony Status was out of question.In 1923, however, government, alarmed by the mobilization level of YKA in Nyanza, compromised its leadership and Jonathan Okwiri handed over chairmanship to Archdeacon Owen fearing the banning of the association the way EAA had been.Under Owen YKA changed its name to KTWA with its emphasis shifting from political grievances to social grievances focusing on killing rats, digging latrines and keeping compounds clean. It also adopted the use of written memoranda in expressing their grievances. All Nyanza chiefs became Vice-presidents of the association under its new constitution.In 1931, the association split up into Luo and Luyia Factions due to disagreements. The Abaluhyia faction formed the North Kavirondo Central Association that had close links with the KCA. It was formed with the objective of stopping any further land alienation for European use without compensation, especially after the 1930s Kakamega Gold rush.By 1944, many of the top leaders of the KTWA had been co-opted into the colonial administration with Okwiri becoming a chief. Benjamin Owuor, Nyende and Okwiri were made members of the LNC in central Nyanza. KWTA was therefore weakened and became extinct in 1944. ----- 300 ### **Ukamba Members Association ** UMA was formed in 1938 by Samuel Muindi Mbingu (Chairman), Elijah Kavula (Vice- chairman), Isaac Mwalozi (secretary) and Simon Kioko (treasurer) as an association of the Akamba of the eastern part of Kenya.The leaders who founded this association were closely associated with East African Association of Harry Thuku. For example, James Mwanthi, Ali Kilonzi and Muhamed Sheikh. **Reasons for the formation of Ukamba Members Association ** a) The Akamba wanted to fight against land alienation for European ranchers causing shortage of land for grazing. b) To oppose the colonial policy of de-stocking who argued that overstocking was responsible for soil erosion in Kitui and Machakos regions. In 1936, the Liebigs Group established a meat processing plant to effect the de-stocking policy. c) To oppose heavy taxation. d) To represent the Akamba peoples interests. e) To fight for the Akamba rights and freedoms They wrote memorandum to the colonial government with the assistance of Asian lawyers. It mobilized people to fight for their rights through meetings and signing of petitions. They got support from KCA and the Asian representative to the Legco, Isher Das.The association used Muigwithania journal of KCA to advance their cause. On 28 [th] July 1938, UMA members including women and children demonstrated and marched to Nairobi with their cattle to seek audience with the governor over destocking and grazing policies. They staged a sit in Nairobi for 6 weeks led by Muindi Mbingu until the governor conceded to their demands at a meeting in Machakos. However, their leader, Muindi Mbingu was arrested in September 1938 and deported to Lamu until 1946. The Association was banned at the beginning of World War II. **Problems that faced UMA in its operations** a) The colonial government had a negative attitude towards the activities of the association. This discouraged open participation. b) Arrest of their leader Muindi Mbingu and his deportation to Lamu demoralized the movement. c) The Association alongside others was banned, with the World War II looming. **Coast Africa Association ** The Association was formed in 1943 with Noah Mwana Sele as president, Muhamed bin Mwichande as vice president, E.W. Timothy as secretary General and H.G.Banks as honorary treasurer. Other officials were Muhamed bin Omar, Enoch Benjamin and H. Harrison. **Demands of Coast Africa Association. ** a) The demanded for improved education and the general welfare of Africans in the coastal region ----- 301 ### b) The elevation of Shimo la Tewa to a high school. c) The establishment of evening classes in the region so as to give African adults a chance to pursue basic western education. d) to protest inadequate healthcare services for the Africans. e) They were demanding for appointment of Africans as administrators. f) They demanded that tax collected from African drinks be used to develop African rural areas. g) They demanded for the revocation of allocation of Mijikenda land to Asians and Arabs. h) They demanded for African representation of Coast region in the LEGCO in 1947. Unlike other Associations CAA did not present their grievances in political meetings bur instead used written memoranda and also their newspaper, the Coast African Express whose editor wads Elkana Young. This explains why the association existed while others had been banned. ***In 1955 however, the association began to disintegrate due to the following reasons; *** a) The departure of their leaders Francis Khamisi and Ronald Ngala who joined the Mombasa African democratic union and the LEGCO. b) Leadership wrangles based on ethnic consideration. c) Shortage of funds to run the activities of the association. It succeeded in achieving elevation of Shimo la Tewa school into a high school and a Legco position for the Mijikenda. **Taita hills Association ** It was formed on 22nd June 1939, being modeled on the KCA and UMA styles. Its objectives were; ~ To achieve equal political status with whites and Asians. ~ To help the Taita community to advance. ~ To protest the destocking policy. Most of the fertile land of the community had been occupied by European settlers who were growing coffee on it. ~ Oppose the plan to relocate the Wada Wida people from Taita hills to Samburu to create room for settlers. ~ They were opposed to the kipande system and forced labour. The Europeans forced the Wataita to work on coffee plantations and ferry the coffee over long distances for low wages.The pioneer founder of the Association was Daniel Mapinga, a young catechist, who began mobilizing the Wataita against oppressive measures used by the colonial government. Unfortunately he died in 1837.In 1939, Woresho Kolandi Mengo, Jimmy Mwambichi and Paul Chumbo took over his course and established THA with the help of KCA leadership. **Achievements** a) The association succeeded in stopping the governments plan to relocate the Wada Wida people from Taita hills to Samburu to create room for settlers. ----- 302 ### b) The colonial government stopped the de-stocking plan among the Wataita. c) The government revised the Taita reserve boundaries and reduced the land initially carved for European settlers. **Problems experienced ** a) It failed to attract prominent personalities I Tata. b) It lacked support of all the African groups in the region. For example the Wataveta and Wagisiga were reluctant to join THA. c) The association was banned alongside others in May 1940. d) Their leader Mwambichi was deported after being arrested. **Problems faced by early political organizations. ** a) Their members were subjected to harassment by the colonial government, especially arresting and dispersing demonstrators. b) The organizations were demoralized through the deportation of the leaders like Thuku (EAA). Muindi Mbingu (UMA) and Mwambichi (THA). c) The associations experienced political wrangles between members as witnessed in KCA between 1931 1nd 1839 and CAA upon departure of its tow key leaders. d) Many of the leaders of the organizations had little experience in running political parties and therefore mismanaged their offices. e) The organizations were faced with financial inadequacy. Many Africans were experiencing financial problems due to land alienation, taxation and poor working conditions and therefore could not adequately contribute to the associations. f) There was a lot of disunity since most organizations were ethnic-based **Features of the political associations formed in Kenya before 1939 ** a) They lacked a national outlook since they were ethnic (tribal based/oriented/urban based). Most of them were confined to one or two ethnic communities except EAA. b) Most of them received material and moral support from the Asians c) Mission-Educated African young men led them. For example, Harry Thuku, Okwiri and Mwambichi. d) They were formed in response to socio-economic and land problems of various ethnic groups. e) They all agitated for an end to European exploitation and oppression rather than demand for political independence. f) Most of them did not attract large membership due to their ethnic tendency. g) They were non-militant and tended to be moderate and their demanded. h) They were characterized by squabbles over leadership. **Achievements of early political parties. ** a) They provided political education to the African communities through their political rallies. ----- 303 ### b) They communicated the communities feelings to the colonial government through publications, memoranda or speeches. c) They defended the African cultures against further erosion by the European missionaries. For example KCA defended female circumcision among agikuyu. d) They re-awakened the masses by making them conscious of the political situation in the country. d) Some succeeded in to stop further land alienation by restraining the Europeans from displacing the Africans to the reserves. For example THA succeeded in stopping the governments plan to relocate the Wada Wida people from Taita hills to Samburu to create room for settlers. e) The played the role of trade Unionism by fighting for the welfare of the workers in the absence of formal trade unions. f) They publicized Africans grievances to the international community. For Example, the role played by Jomo Kenyatta on behalf of KCA. g) They pioneered in the growth of nationalism by forging inter-community relations in the struggle for independence. **EMERGENCE OF INDEPENDENT CHURCHES AND SCHOOLS MOVEMENT ** **IN KENYA ** This was an expression of African protest against European interference with traditional African economic and political organization. **Reasons why independent churches and schools emerged in Kenya** a) The desire by majority of Africans to retain their cultural values while at the same time converting to Christianity. Many were unhappy with the western influence of Christian missionaries who taught against traditional customs. b) Africans were unhappy with the 3Rs style of education in mission schools which only prepared them for low positions in government or employment on European farms and homes. They desired to be equal to Europeans and Asians. c) Independent schools emerged as a reaction against colonial domination and exploitation in terms of taxation, kipande, forced labour and racial discrimination. d) Africans desired leadership in their own churches instead of being led by European missionaries whom they viewed as agents of colonialism. e) The role played by Africans like John Owalo and Elijah Masinde who claimed to have received divine calls to begin independent churches. f) Some Africans felt dissatisfied with the interpretation of the scriptures. The Holy Spirit Church, for example, broke away on this account. g) Some churches were formed to allow Africans to express their Christianity freely through dancing, singing and drum beating which many mission churches did not accommodate. h) Characteristics of independent churches and schools. **Characteristics of independent churches and schools. ** ----- 304 ### a) All of them accommodated African cultural values. b) Both churches and schools valued Christianity and western education but were against the westernizing influence by missionaries. c) Africans held positions of leadership in the churches and schools. d) Most Churches and schools worked closely with the African political association. **The independent churches movement in Nyanza. ** John Owalo is credited for leading in the establishment of independent churches in nyanza. He stared as a Roman Catholic, then joined the Church of Scotland mission (CSM) at Kikuyu before moving to the CMS first in Nairobi, then defected to Maseno. The reason why Owalo suffered from denominational defection is because he was seeking for a mission church that accommodated African cultural values and where Africans could be given a say I terms of leadership and worship. In 1907, Owalo claimed to have received a direct call from God with instructions to begin his own church. Though CMS at Maseno dismissed him as a lunatic, the colonial authority (Nyanza PC John Ainsworth) granted Owalo permission to start his own mission. In 1910, he founded the Nomiya Luo Church, which became the first independent church in Kenya. Owalo proclaimed himself as a prophet equating similar to Jesus. Other independent churches in Nyanza included; 1) Dini ya Roho (Holy Spirit Church) founded among the Luhyia in 1927 as a breakaway from the Friends African Mission. The members claimed to speak in tongues and believed in baptism by the holy spirit, 2) Joroho church founded by Alfayo Odongo Mango in 1932 among the Luo. It was similar to Dini ya Roho. 3) The Christian Universal Evangelical Union founded in 1938 In Siaya by Ismael Noo, a school teacher linked to the Anglican Church at Maseno. He began off as one of the leaders of the revival movement at Maseno, which emphasized salvation by the blood of Jesus and public confession of sin. His movement insisted that men and women should have sexual intercourse since they were saved. His church attracted many women and soon he was accused of infidelity with peoples wives.He officially broke away from the Anglican Church at a convention at Nyabondo in Nyakach to establish the Christian Evangelical Union. The church is currently known as the Christian Evangelical Church, having changed its name in 1965. **The independent churches and schools movement in central Kenya ** Due to its proximity to Nairobi, the seat of colonial administration, central Kenya experienced the presence of white settlers more than any other region in Kenya. The schools established by the so many missionary groups in the region only aimed at imparting basic literacy and numeracy skills to African converts. As the evangelized, the \\missionary groups condemned many traditional African practices and values like polygamy, consumption of traditional brews and female circumcision. It is behind this backdrop that independent churches and schools emerged in central Kenya. ----- 305 ### **Kikuyu Independent schools** Kikuyu elders out of the desire for western education for their children, without necessarily being Europeanized, set up independent schools. In 1913, a Kikuyu elder, Mukunga wa Njehu, donated land at Gaithieko, Kiambu where the first independent school In central kenya was built.In 1925, another school had been built and registered at Githunguri.The independent Schools Movement emerged in the 1920s as a result of the expulsion from mission schools of the children of the supporters of female circumcision. The two bodies that emerged as a consequence were Kikuyu Independent Schools ***Association (KISA) and the Kikuyu Karinga Educational Association (KKEA) *** **The Kikuyu Independent Schools Association** The Body was closely associated with the Independent Pentecostal Church and was predominantly in Muranga, Nyeri and Embu. Following a showdown over female circumcision, the kikuyu elders got permission from the DC to build a prayer House around Gituamba on land donated by two elders, Kagere Gatundu and Gathai Gachohi of Thiru sub-location. Between 1929 and 1932, a school was set up at the church. This success inspired the emergence of similar churches and schools in Mariira, Kahiti and Gakarara in Kandara, Muranga.In 1934, KISA was established to coordinate the efficient running of these schools with its leaders including Daudi Maina Kiragu, Musa Muriithi, Hezekiah Gachui, Peter Gathecha and Johana Njoroge.The Association had the responsibility of establishing more schools and maintaining them as well as mobilizing funds for teacher training programmes. Their activities got the support of the colonial authorities which even permitted establishment of more schools that must be registered at the DOs office.By 1935, KISA had established 34 independent schools with an enrolment of 2,518 pupils. Similar schools emerged in the Rift Valley among the kikuyu squatters. **Challenges encountered by KISA. ** a) There were inadequate funds to support the large number of pupils and schools. b) Many teachers were untrained. c) Many of the KISA leaders lacked proper management skills. d) Mission schools fought the efforts of KISA leaders. e) There were disagreements among KISA leaders where some demanded for money for the land they had donated for the schools.The independent churches also suffered from lack of ordained ministers. This problem was solved when KCA invited the Most Reverend William Alexander, the Archbishop of the African Orthodox Church in South Africa in 1935, who established a seminary at Gituamba and ordained Daudi Maina Kiragu, Philip Kiande and Harrison Gachukia Kimanga as Ministers.In 1937 after Archbishop Alexander had left, Daudi Maina Kiragu and Harrison Gachukia Kimanga broke away and formed the African Independent Pentecostal Church which they claimed was independent from external influence.In 1938, KISA named their church the Independent Pentecostal Church. ----- 306 ### By 1952, at the time of its banning, KISA had 168 schools with an enrolment of 60,000 pupils in central Kenya and rift valley. **Kikuyu Karinga Educational Association** The association emerged out of a split at the Gituamba between the Muranga group and the -Kiambu members who were radical and were more closely associated with KCA. The term Karinga means pure implying unpolluted kikuyu customs and values. KKEA was opposed to all forms of cooperation with either the missionaries or the colonial authority.By 1940, it had established 12 schools in Kiambu and 11 in the rift valley. By 1952, it had established schools at Moshi and Arusha in Tanganyika. It established its own church in 1952(the African Orthodox Church of Kenya), relying on church ministers trained at Gituamba seminary. It was led by Arthur Gathuna and Philip KiandeThe Association was banned in 1952 after declaration of a State of Emergency.In 1939, the Kenya Teachers Training College was established at Githunguri, Kiambu, to train teachers for the independent schools. Mbiyu Koinange was the first principal. It was closed in 1952 alongside other independent schools. **Problems faced by independent churches and schools** a) Poor leadership as many churches and schools were led by people without any management experience. Many of them lacked trained personnel who could run them efficiently. b) They faced a lot of hostility from the colonial government and missionaries who constantly harassed them. c) Ideological differences among their leaders on which name to adopt. There were also many leadership squabbles as all founders wanted to be recognized. d) The schools were forced to follow the official syllabus and become members of the District Education Board. e) The independent churches and schools competed with mission churches and schools for followers with the later declaring war on certain African practices **POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS AND MOVEMENTS AFTER 1945. ** ***Factors that hastened political development in Kenya after 1945. *** a) The Acquisition of western education by many Africans by 1945 which enabled them to articulate their grievances more forcefully and to understand political developments outside Kenya. b) The return of the ex-servicemen after the second world war which exposed the myth of the white supremacy making Africans ready to fight them. Moreover, the colonial government failed to reward African ex-soldiers to embitter them more. c) The change of government from Conservative to Labour Party in Britain in 1946 stimulated a new attitude in Britain towards decolonization. Africans in Kenya took advantage of this attitude. d) The granting of independence to India and Pakistan in 1947 aroused great confidence among Africans in Kenya to also clamour for their own independence. ----- 307 ### e) The rise of Pan-Africanism in Africa after the 1945 Manchester conference contributed to the new demands for political independence in Kenya. f) The formation of the UNO and the pressure it exerted on the European powers to decolonize helped the Kenyans in their course. g) The emergence of United States and the Soviet Union as super powers in the world contributed to the decolonization process. USA was keen to see Britain and France grant independence to their subjects in the world in order to secure new markets. h) The signing of the Atlantic Charter in 1941 by Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt which demanded that when the WWII ended, all subject peoples should enjoy the right to self-determination. i) The costs incurred by the European nations during WW2 made their taxpayers become reluctant to raise any more funds for colonial expenditures. **Characteristics of political parties formed after 1945. ** a) They had a national outlook as members were drawn from different ethnic groups b) Their main objectives was to fight for independence c) Educated elites led them d) They had a large membership. e) They demanded for fair taxation for Africans. f) They all demanded for improved conditions for African workers. g) They all demanded for the return of alienated land. **Kenya African Study Union ** When Eliud Mathu was nominated to the Legco on 10 [th] October 1944, a number of well educated Africans led by Francis Khamisi agreed to form Kenya African Union (KAU) with the following objectives;. a) To assist Mathu in his new task as the first African nominated to the LEGCO. b) To create a Multi-ethnic political grouping representing the interests and constitutional rights of all Africans effectively. c) To advocate for more constitutional reforms for Africans. d) To demand for better living and working conditions. The interim officials were Harry Thuku (chairman), Francis Khamisi (Secretary) and Albert Owino (treasurer). Other officials were James Gichuru, John Kebaso, Simeon Mulandi, Harry ole Nangurai, S.0. Josiah, F.M. Nganga, Jimmy Jeremiah, J.D. Otiende and S.D. Jakay.Two weeks after its formation, the governor ordered its officials to change its name to the Kenya African Study Union as it was meant to help Mathu in studying African problems.In January 1945, James Gichuru became the president of KASU after Harry Thuku resigned, being unable to cope with radicalism in the union. Under Gichuru, KASU published a newspaper - Sauti ya Mwafrika that concentrated on African grievances and the proposed East African Federation which they opposed. The organization rejected proposals to give more powers to European members in the Executive council. They refused to accept a European dominated government of the East ----- 308 ### African Federation. Later in 1946 on KASU changed its name to KAU feeling that the former name was inappropriate. **Kenya African Union ** Formed in February 1946, the main demands of KAU were; ~ They protested against inadequate African representation in the LEGCO. ~ They protested against the lack of Participation of Africans in the governance of Kenya. They even demanded for Self-government for Africans. ~ They were against the continued existence of the Kipande System and forced labour. ~ They demanded improvement of the African working conditions with better wages equal to what was paid to other races. ~ They demanded an end to Land alienation and racial discrimination. ~ They demanded an end to Imposition of taxes. ~ They demanded compensation of ex-servicemen. ~ They were protesting against Lack of education opportunities for Africans. The return to Kenya by Kenyatta in 1946 marked the beginning of mass nationalism. On 1 [st] June 1947, Kenyatta became president of KAU after Gichuru stepped down for him. W.W.W. Awori was elected vice-president and Ambrose Ofafa and Muchohi Gikonyo were elected treasurer and secretary respectively.Kenyatta travelled widely in Kenya where he urged people to join KAU. After 1947 KAU began to face the problem of a standoff between Radicals like Fred Kubai and Paul Ngei who wanted to use force to acquire independence, and moderates like Kenyatta himself. Radicals who included Bildad Kaggia took over the Nairobi branch of KAU.When the national delegates conference was held in 1951, Jomo Kenyatta retained presidency, J.D. Otiende became secretary General, PAUL Ngei assistant SG and Ole Nangurai Treasurer. Between 1948 and 1950, KAU faced serious financial problems even failing to pay rent for its offices at the IBEA building. **Other problems that faced KAU ** a) Kenyatta also appeared too busy to run the affairs of the party as he doubled up as the Principal of Githunguri TTC. b) The party also faced a lot of hostility from the colonial government and the white settlers. c) There were rampant ethnic divisions within the membership of KAU being complicated by the fact that the party appeared to be dominated by one ethnic group, the kikuyu. d) Majority of the African population, who were illiterate, lacked political awareness under could not understand the political efforts required of them. When the Mau Mau movement began, the Nairobi office of Kubai, J.M.Mungai and Kaggia worked closely with it. KAU continued to expand its membership in Kenya with Ramogi Achieng Oneko opening a branch in Kisumu in 1951, Johana Adala and Boaz Muha opened a branch in ----- 309 ### Maragoli and Muinga Chokwe opened one in Mombasa.In 1952, KAU rallies were banned outside Nairobi after a political meeting in Nyeri, attended by the leader of Mau Mau, Dedan Kimathi, which attracted over 25,000 people thus startling the government. When a state of emergency was declared in 1952, KAU leaders were arrested for being behind Mau Mau. Walter Odede became the acting president, Joseph Murumbi acting secretary and W.W.W.Awori-acting treasurer.The acting official presented a 24-point memoranda to Oliver Lyttelton, secretary of state for colonies when he came to kenya during the emergency period, demanding the release of the Kapenguria six (Jomo Kenyatta, Paul Ngei, Kungu Karumba, Bildad Kaggia, Achieng Oneko and Fred Kubai) Walter Odede, the acting president was late arrested on 9 [th] march 1953 while Murumbi escaped to Bombay, India as KAU was banned on 8 [th] June 1953. **Achievements if KAU ** a) Party members especially from the Nairobi branch gave moral and material support to the Mau Mau freedom fighters. b) The party provided guidance and political support to Eliud Mathu, the first African representative to the Legco. c) The party laid the foundation for the growth of the Kenya African National Union that ushered in independence in Kenya. d) Some of the members of the party were active members of Mau Mau. For example, Fred Kubai and Bildad Kaggia. **THE MAU-MAU REBELLION 1951 - 60 ** Mau-Mau is an abbreviation which stands for Mzungu Arudi Ulaya, Mwafrika Apate Uhuru (meaning let the white man go back to Europe and the Africans regain Independence).Sometimes the movement was referred to as the Land and Freedom Army and the Anake-aForty.Sometime in the late 1940s the General Council of the banned Kikuyu Central Association (KCA) began to make preparations for a campaign of civil disobedience involving all of the Kikuyu in order to protest the land issue. The members of this initiative were bound together through oath. The rituals obliged the oath taker to fight and defend themselves from Europeans.In These oath rituals, There were rumors about cannibalism, ritual zoophilia with goats, sexual orgies, ritual places decorated with intestines and goat eyes, and that oaths included promises to kill, dismember and burn settlers. The oaths were a cultural symbol of the solidarity that bound Kikuyu men, women and children in loyalty together in their opposition to the colonial government. It also instilled courage and unity among people,Nonetheless, the British were scared by the oath, made taking the Mau Mau oath a capital offence. The British also screened Mau Mau suspects and forced them to take a 'cleansing oath', a strange instance of colonialism 'gone native'. **CAUSES OF THE MAU-MAU REBELLION ** a) The unemployment of the ex-soldiers who had been promised jobs after the World War II, but instead were made porters on European-estates. Similarly, people were ----- 310 ### retrenched, traders pushed out to business by Asian retail trade monopoly and European settlers. b) Africans, especially the Kikuyu, wanted their land returned. By 1948, 1.25 million Kikuyu were restricted to 2000 square miles (5,200 km), while 30,000 settlers occupied 12,000 square miles (31,000 km) fertile land. In the reserves Africans suffered from congestion, starvation and diseases like typhoid, cholera. c) It was a reaction against the Kipande system. This was a method of identity cards imposed on Africans to restrict them from unnecessary movements. d) The introduction of racial discrimination in Kenya. The Europeans equated the black colour with low intelligence, uncivilized, barbaric and a backward race. All the best hotels, restaurants, schools, recreational centres and most fertile soils in Kenya were reserved for the whites only. e) Africans were fed up of heavy and harsh taxation by the Europeans. Failure to pay tax was punishable by taking away the land or even imprisonment. So the Africans were forced to go and work under harsh condition and for long hours, yet poorly paid. f) The dominance of the economy by the Asian and white settlers. The Africans were not allowed to take part in meaningful business, were not given positive consideration in awarding jobs. g) They also wanted to be exposed to the social services e.g. education. The white settlers frustrated the African efforts to set up schools even the few educated Africans were not employed in the civil service. h) Africans feared a gradual destruction of their culture by the whites e.g. the missionaries were totally against the circumcision of women among the Kikuyu and the traditional view of twins. i) Africans wanted a fair share in the administration of their country (Parliament). For a long time many Kenyans were excluded from decision making and political participation the whites and Asians in the Legislative Council did not represent their interests. j) The return of Jomo Kenyatta in the 1950s after his studies in Europe, he came back with a wider vision to convince the Kenyans about their rights and they therefore united and rebelled. k) The role of educated Kenyans who aware of their rights as citizens and in turn educated the rest about their place in society. This prompted them to rebel against the whites. l) The colonial policy discouraged Africans from growing cash crops like coffee, tea, cotton, pyrethrum for fear of competition with the Africans who would grow rich and challenge the colonial administration. m) Forced labour. Africans were obliged by colonial law to offer labour on the plantation this was to be done forcefully without offering any payments. This kind of new slavery inspired the occurrence of the Mau Mau rebellion. ----- 311 ### n) Influence of the Second World War. Many Kenyans who participated in this war discovered the weakness of the white man and the loopholes in their systems of administration. These included General China, Dedan Kimathi among others who also acquired good military skills. o) The move was a quest for constitutional reforms in Kenya. African political parties had been banned with impunity and their leaders like Harry Thuku, Muindi Mbingu and Mwambichi detained p) They were protesting colonial brutality especially the mistreatment of Africans on the white farms. Many Africans were killed at the slightest excuse like in the case of the upland Bacon **Factory Massacre in September 1947. ** **The course of the uprising. ** On May 1, 1949, six trade unions formed the East African Trades Union Congress (EATUC). The union leaders joined with the \"Forty Group,\" which was a roughly cohesive group mostly composed of African ex-servicemen conscripted in 1940 when attempts for a union members strike failed on May 16 [th] 1950. In June 1951, the urban KAU radicals (Mutonyi, Isaac Gathanga, Bildad Kaggia, Paul Ngei and Fred Kubai) created a secret Central Committee (Muhimu) to coordinate the oath campaign throughout Nairobi and outside Nairobi. It also formed armed squads to enforce its policies, protect members from the police, and kill informers and collaborators. Different leaders led the Land and Freedom Armies. Three of the dominant Active Wing leaders were Stanley Mathenge; Waruhiu Itote (known as General China), leader of Mount Kenya wing; and Dedan Kimathi, leader of Aberdare forest wing. Others were General Ndungu Gicheru, General Mwariama and General Matenjagwo (one who never shaves). Other armies were in Nairobi, Kiambu, Fort Hall and Rift Valley. They were mostly equipped with spears, simis (short swords), kibokos (rhino hide whips) and pangas (machete). Some made their own gunswhile others employed armed robberies on police stations and isolated settler homes. African and Asian merchants funded the movement by paying protection fees.On 1 [st] of October 1952, Mau Mau assassinated a Nairobi councillor, Tom Mbotela, who was a government loyalist. On 3 October, Mau Mau claimed their first European victim when they stabbed a woman to death near her home in Thika. A week later, on 9 October, Senior Chief Waruhiu, a strong supporter of the British presence in Kenya, had been shot to death in broad daylight in his car. His assassination gave Governor Baring the final impetus to declare a State of Emergency on 20 October 1952. Early the next morning, the British carried out a mass-arrest of 180 alleged Mau Mau leaders and subjected six of them to a trial (the Kapenguria Six); the real militants, such as Dedan Kimathi and Stanley Mathenge, fled to the forests. While much of the senior leadership of the Nairobi Central Committee was arrested, Local rebel committees took uncoordinated decisions to strike attack settlers and there was an abrupt rise in the destruction of European property and attacks on African ----- 312 ### loyalists. On January 24, 1953, Mau Mau, possibly former servants, killed settlers Mr. and Mrs. Ruck, as well as their six-year-old son, on their farm with pangas. White settlers reacted by dismissing all of their Kikuyu servants because of the fear that they could be Mau Mau sympathizers. Naivasha Police Station was raided in March 1953.Over 1800 loyalist Kikuyu were killed. Operating from the safety of the forests, the Mau Mau mainly attacked isolated farms at night, but occasionally also households in suburbs of Nairobi.In May 1953, the Kikuyu Home Guard became an official part of the security forces. It became the significant part of the anti-Mau Mau effort. On March25March 26, 1953, nearly 1000 rebels attacked the loyalist village of Lari, where about 170 non- combatants were hacked or burnt to death. Most of them were the wives and children of Kikuyu Home Guards serving elsewhere. In the weeks that followed, some suspected rebels were summarily executed by police and loyalist Home Guards.In June 1953 General Sir George Erskine arrived and took up the p ost of Director of Operations. A military brought in 20,000 troops who were used aggressively. The Kikuyu reserves were designated \"Special Areas,\" where anyone failing to halt when challenged could be shot. The colonial government created so-called pseudo-gangs composed of de-oathed and turned ex-Mau Mau and allied Africans, sometimes headed by white officers. They infiltrated Mau Mau ranks and made search and destroy missions. By September 1953, the British knew the leading personalities in Mau Mau, the capture of General China in January the following year provided a massive intelligence boost on the forest fighters. On April 24, 1954, the Army launched \"Operation Anvil\" in Nairobi, the forest fighters' source of supplies, money and recruits, and the city was put under military control. By the end of 1954 there were 77,000 Kikuyu in concentration camps mainly deported from Nairobi. In June 1954, a policy of compulsory villagization was started in the reserves to allow more effective control and surveillance of civilians and to better protect pro- government collaborators. When the program reached completion in October 1955, 1,077,500 Kikuyu had been concentrated into 854 \"villages.\"The last Mau Mau leader, Dedan Kimathi, was captured by Kikuyu Tribal Police on 21 October 1956 in Nyeri with 13 remaining guerrillas, and was subsequently hanged in early 1957. His capture marked the effective end of the Uprising, though some Mau Mau remained in the forests until 1963 and the Emergency remained in effect until January 1960. **Mau war by other communities ** ~ In April 1953, a Kamba Central Committee was formed by Kamba rebels who were all railway men and effectively controlled the railway workforce. They organized acts of sabotage against the railway lines during the emergency. ~ Rebel Maasai bands became active in Narok district before being crushed by soldiers and police who were tasked with preventing a further spread of the rebellion. ~ In Maragoli, Chief Mukudi of Bunyore was associated with the movement. ~ Other communities involved were the Kipsigis section of kalenjin, Luo etc. ----- 313 ### **Factors, which facilitated the MAU MAU uprising. ** a) Oathing, which united the people and gave them the courage, determination and momentum for the rebellion course. b) The use of guerilla tactics ensured less loss of life and prolonged war. It made it difficult for the British to suppress the rebellion. c) The support to the fighters from the civilians who supplied food, water, spying etc. d) Strong leadership for the movement by people like Dedan Kimathi, Waruhiu Itote (General China), Stanley Mathenge and General Matenjagwo. e) The deep resentment of the people against the Europeans gave them the reason to continue fighting. f) The natural forests of Mount Kenya and Aberdere ranges provided good hideouts for the fighters. g) The fighters had enough weapons. They accessed weapons like the homemade guns, swords and Machette to add to what they were able to seize from the settlers. **Problems that faced Mau Mau Rebellion ** a) The fighters lacked transport and communication facilities. b) They were faced with adverse weather conditions, operating in the Aberdere and MountKenya Forests that were extremely cold. c) In the Wild environment, they were frequently attacked by wild animals. d) They lacked proper fighting equipment when compared to the weaponry of the Europeans. e) They faced brutality from the British forces when they were retaliating. f) There were constant divisions and disagreements among the fighters. g) The movement suffered from the infiltration of spies in form of pseudo-gangs who exposed their military strategies. h) The movement suffered from lack of proper coordination due to the use of forest hideouts and mountain terrain by the guerrillas which prevented them from developing a wellcoordinated strategy. i) The arrest of the movements key leaders General China and Dedan Kimathi dealt in a devastating blow. j) The movement suffered from a disjointed recruitment process with some fighters being coerced into membership which put their loyalty to doubt. **Results of the Mau Mau uprising** a) Many people died as a result of the war. The official number of Kenyans killed was estimated at 11,503 by British sources. More than 1,800 Kenyan civilians and 32 British civilians were killed by Mau Mau militants. b) The war attracted the attention of British citizens and international community to the crimes committed by the colonial administration. British forces committed widespread human rights abuses, including rape, torture and castration. ----- 314 ### c) Many Africans were arrested and detained while thousands were seriously injured during the interrogations. For example, 11 of the 88 detainees at Hola Camp lost their lives as the rest were seriously injured in brutality incident. d) The war speeded up the march to independence especially when the realty of the inability of the colonial administration to govern kenya dawned on the British government e) The uprising led to destruction of property. Villages, houses and crops were burned down. f) The war led to the relocation of the Agikuyu, Ameru and Aembu communities from Nairobi region as their jobs were taken by people from western and rift valley who did not participate in the rebellion. g) The uprising led to the reduction of the influence of the settlers in Kenya as it was realized that it was the enormous settler influence that was responsible for the insurgence. h) The war forced the colonial authority to apply tough measures to restrict the activities of African political parties such as KAU that was banned in 1952. i) The war led to the beginning of a program of villagization and land reform consolidated the land holdings of the Kikuyu, thereby creating emergency kikuyu villages in various parts of the country. j) It led to the declaration of a state of emergence in Kenya on 20 [th] October 1952. k) The war bred bitterness among members of Agikuyu Aembu and Ameru where some were government loyalists while others were Mau Mau supporters. l) The war resulted into the land reform measures that came to be known as the SwynnertonPlan of 1954 that sparked off the resettlement of Africans in the countryside. **Swynnerton Plan ** Refusing to give more land to the Kikuyu in the reserves, which could have been seen as a concession to Mau Mau, Baring turned instead in 1953 to Roger Swynnerton, Kenya's assistant director of agriculture. The primary goal of the Swynnerton Plan was the creation of family holdings large enough to keep families self-sufficient in food and to enable them to practice alternate husbandry, which would generate a cash income. **Recommendations of the Swynnerton Plan of 1954** a) The survey and enclosure of African land in high potential areas. b) The processing of title deeds and giving out title deeds to the owners. Only progressive African farmers would get title deeds and benefit from the land reforms. c) A few Africans were allowed to practice new agricultural methods and obtain credit as well as title deeds. d) A few African s were allowed to practice individual land ownership. e) A few progressive African farmers were allowed to grow cash crops. Kenya African National Union During the emergency period, (From October 1952 to December 1959) African participation in the political process increased rapidly. The Kenya African National ----- 315 ### Union (KANU) was formed after the First Lancaster House Conference of January 1960 resolved that nationwide political parties be formed in Kenya as a step towards decolonization.On 27 [th] march 1960, at a meeting at Kirigiti, Kiambu convened by ex- KAU strongmen, James Gichuru and Oginga Odinga, KAU merged with Kenya Independent Movement and the People's Congress Party to form KANU. The colonial government declined to register KANU with Kenyatta as president since he was still in detention.In May 1960 James Gichuru took the presidency with Odinga as his deputy. Tom Mboya became the secretary General and Arthur Ochwada his assistant. Ronald Ngala and Daniel Moi were elected treasurer and assistant treasurer respectively in absentia as they were attending a commonwealth parliamentary Association meeting in London.In the partys constitution, drafted by Mwai Kibaki and Tom Mboya, the following were the objectives; a) To attain political independence for Africans inn Kenya. b) To achieve national unity through a unitary national constitution under one central government. c) To create a society based on African socialism. d) To eradicate poverty, ignorance and disease. e) To get back African land. f) To have all political detainees released. g) To unite with liberation movements in other countries in a Africa in order to end imperialism and colonialism in the continent. h) To encourage good neighbourliness in the East African Region. When Kenyata was released, he took over leadership of the party. During the independence elections in may 1963, KANU won 73 seats against KADUs 31 and African Peoples Partys 8 . Jomo Kenyatta became the Prime Minister on 1 [st] June 1963. **Achievements of KANU in the struggle for independence. ** a) KANU mobilized Africans in Kenya and united them in the struggle for independence. b) Through its numerous nationwide meetings, it provided political education to the Africans in Kenya. c) It participated in the independence constitution making process by being part of the Lancaster House conference of 1962. **Challenges faced by KANU in the struggle for independence. ** a) There was disunity among its members with some suspicious of the big communities who had taken up key leadership positions b) The party faced the problem of lacking adequate funds to carry out its countrywide campaigns for Independence. c) The KANU leaders suffered from ideological differences with some opposing the unitary system of government as advocated by the partys constitution. ----- 316 ### d) Some members were dissatisfied with the way party affairs were being run especially the elections which they felt were not fair. **Kenya African Democratic Union (KADU) ** KADU was formed in 1960 as an alliance of minority ethnic political groups to protect the rights /interests of the minority groups against possible domination of KANU /majority groups.Its senior leaders included Ronald Ngala (president), Masinde Muliro (Vice president), Daniel Arap Moi (chairman), Martin Shikuku (secretary General) and Justus ole Tipis (treasurer).KADU leaders advocated for a federal system while KANU group were advocating for a unitary system of government.When KANU refused to form government while Kenyatta was still in detention, KADU formed the first coalition government with the Europeans and Asians who belonged to Michael Blundells New Kenya Party after garnering 11 seats in the May 1961 elections.In 1962, KADU and KANU formed a coalition government while awaiting the 1963 elections.Following the defeat by KANU in the May 1963 elections, it became the major opposition party until 1964 when it was disbanded after persuasions from Jomo Kenyatta. **Roles played by the Kenya African Democratic Union in the struggle for ** **independence. ** a) It united the smaller communities in Kenya. E.g the Kalenjin, Luhyia, Maasai and coastal communities. b) It educated/ mobilized Africans against the colonial domination. c) It pressed for the release of Jomo Kenyatta while hopping that he would eventually join on their side. d) It participated in drawing up the independence constitution in the second Lancaster House conference. e) As an opposition party though for a short time, it helped to provide checks on the KANU government. **Challenges faced by KADU** a) There were suspicions of dominance of the party by some communities. b) The party faced the problem of lacking adequate funds to carry out its countrywide campaigns for Independence. c) Wrangles between senior officials of the party often undermined the partys operations. d) Illiteracy among the majority of the members left the top leaders with too much responsibility over party affairs. e) The party was prone to manipulations by the colonial authority in its operations. f) The party members were faced with a lot of pressure from KANU to decamp. African **Peoples Party** The party also emerged after the 1962 Lancaster House conference, founded by Paul Ngei, one of the radical members of KAUs Nairobi branch. ----- 317 ### Paul Ngei had similar fears just like the founders of KADU that the Akamba interests would not be catered for in the proposed government arrangement that favoured KANU as well as KADU.The party was formed in February 1962. After Kenya became a republic in 1964, APP decamped from the opposition to join KANU. **The trade-union movement. ** The early trade Unions in Kenya were formed along racial lines though all form them aimed at addressing labour problems that faced workers. The first trade union in Kenya was the Indian Trade Union formed in 1914 in mombasa. Upto 1914, there existed no African trade union in Kenya because of the following reasons; a) Artisans and farm labourers were not allowed to join or form associations since it was feared they would organize sudden and unofficial strikes. b) Majority of the Kenyans were illiterate and lacked the knowledge to run workers unions. c) The migrant labour system militated against the establishment of such unions. d) The colonial government fought attempts by Africans to form workers organizations. For this reason, in the 1920s, African political organizations doubled up as also defenders of workers welfare.In 1922, Asian workers in the railway department formed the Railway Artisans Union but its officials were sacked by the government causing it to wind up in 1923.in 1930s, a Trade Union Committee was formed in Mombasa by Masons and labourers with R.M. S hah as its president.In 1934, the Indian Trade Union became the Kenya Indian Labour Trade Union (KLTU ) whose membership was from other towns in Kenya.By 1935, the union began admitting members from other races necessitating it to change its name to Labour Trade Union of Kenya (LTUK). When it expanded its membership to the rest of East Africa in 1939, it became known as the Labour Trade Union of East Africa (LTUEA) on 14thJanuary 1947, over 15,000 striking African workers of Mombasa formed the African Workers Union (AWU). Muhamed Kibwana was elected president, Mwangi Macharia-secretary, Mbaruk Kenze-treasurer and Chege Kibachia executive officer. **The Unions demands included; ** a) A salary increase due to the high cost of living. b) Implementation of the policy of equal pay for equal work regardless of race. c) Respect for African workers wherever they were employed. d) Payment of sufficient allowances to cater for African wives and children. e) Elimination of the deliberate strategies applied by employers to keep Africans in their places of work all the time.The Union changed its name to African Workers Federation on 24 [th] January 1947 at the advice of Eliud Mathu who also convinced them to end the strike. Meanwhile a trade dispute tribunal led by Mr. Justice Thacker was set up to look into the workers grievances.The AWF became very popular to all workers in Kenya due to the success of the strike. However its leaders were either repatriated from Mombasa to ----- 318 ### their reserve areas or as was the case of Kibachia, arrested and detained in Baringo district.Achievements of AWF. a) It mobilized workers from different communities to come together and fight for better wages. b) It provided education to the workers about their rights. c) It introduced the concept of collective bargaining among workers in Kenya. d) It fought for better living and working conditions for workers. e) It advocated for better allowances for African workers wives and children, a factor which resulted in better wages and salaries for workers. f) Its activities made the colonial government change its attitude towards labour unions and start to give attention to workers grievances. g) It succeeded in exposing the Kenyan workers grievances to the international community as its strike was internationally publicized. **Kenya Federation of Labour** Following the enactment of the Trade Unions Ordinance in 1952, various small African trade unions (Kenya Local Government Workers Union, Domestic and Hotel Workers Union and East AFRICAN Federation of Building and Construction) united to form the Kenya Federation of Registered Trade Unions (KFRTU). Its officials included Mwichigi Karanja (president), Aggrey Mwinya(secretary general), S. Ondiege, Elikana Okusimba, Silas Okeya, David Jomo, S. Osore, James Wainaina and Dishon Sambili. Among the demands of KFRTU were the following; ~ Increase in African wages. ~ Improvement of the living conditions and poor housing for its workers ~ Protest against the arrest and detention of union officials. ~ Protest against forceful evacuation of the Aembu, Ameru and Agikuyu from Nairobi In 1953. ~ Protest against increase in the price of tea and bread in 1955 ~ Protest against the continuity of the state of emergency. In 1953, Tom Mboyas Kenya Local Government workers Union (KLGWU) joined KFRTU. The following were elected officials in the 1953 elections. David Njomo- prrsident, Stephen Obwaka- vice president, Tom Mboya- general secretary, G.W.Owuor- assistant SG, Daniel Ngethetreasurer and John Opiyo- ass treasurer. In 1955, it changed its name to the Kenya Federation of Labour (KFL) representing 35,000 members. Due to Tom Mboyas efforts KFL was affiliated to the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU). **Achievements of KFL. ** a) It kept the spirit of African nationalism alive during the emergency period when political associations had been banned. ----- 319 ### b) It secured international support through its affiliation to ICFTU for the cause of African nationalism. c) It educated Africans on their rights as workers. d) It helped to improve the living conditions of African workers securing for them a major salary increment in 1956 e) It prepared some African nationalists for leadership roles in the struggle for independence. For example, martin Shikuku and Tom Mboya. **Role of trade union movement in the struggle for independence in Kenya ** a) Trade Unions mobilized workers to strike against colonial government. b) They Motivated workers to sustain the struggle for their political rights/self governance c) They provided national political parties with funds required for their operation. d) Trade union leaders became prominent leaders of political associations that fought for independence. e) They introduced the concept of collective bargaining for workers in Kenya. f) The unions promoted regional cooperation in east Africa. g) They improved working conditions of the Africans through their welfare duties. h) They intensified the spirit of nationalism after ban on political parties. i) They provided a training ground for nationalist leaders e.g. Thomas Mboya j) Educated Africans on their rights **Problems faced by trade unions during the colonial period ** a) There was fear of victimization and harassment from the colonial authorities especially in the pioneer years. b) The migrant nature of African workforce paused a challenge to their membership. c) Ignorance of the African people about trade unionism and its role. d) Poor leadership which affected the running of pioneer trade unions. e) Shortage of funds since they relied on meager contributions from the poorly paid workers. f) Mismanagement of funds by the officials due to inexperience or corruption. g) Ethnicity, which had a hand in the choice of leaders for the unions. h) Constant wrangles among the leaders of the unions. **ROLE OF WOMEN IN THE STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE ** Key women contributors in the struggle for independence.. 1. Mekatilili WA Menza of Giriama who mobilized and administered oaths to the kaya elders to cause the Agiriama resistance 2. Moraa, a Kitutu, prophetess of Gusii who was instrumental in the Gusii resistance. 3. Mary Muthoni Nyanjiru, famously remembered for inciting men to riot when Harry Thuku had been arrested in Nairobi in March 1922 4. Syotune wa Kithuke, a Kamba prophetess who used the kilumi dance in 1911 to mobilize the Akamba to protest against British colonialism. ----- 320 ### role played by women in the struggle for independence. a) The women acted as spies to the Mau Mau fighters in Nairobi and other urban centres. They supplied arms to fighters. b) They contributed to the establishment of independent churches and schools. For example, Legio Maria was co-founded by a Woman, Aoko, in western Kenya. c) They provided food to the fighters in the bushes. d) In central Kenya, they composed songs and dances, which ridiculed colonial chiefs and other agents of the colonial system. E.g Muthirigu. e) They, looked after families, as the men were busy fighting in bushes. f) In the 1930s, some section of the agikuyu women formed the Mumbi Central Association, feeling that KCA was not recognizing their contribution. g) The hid the fighters in houses. h) They participated in the oathing ceremonies, some acting as chief oathing administrators. i) Some participated actively in the freedom wars and were even killed e.g. Marshal Muthoni, Elizabeth Gachika etc. j) They participated in demonstrations and meetings to fight colonialists. k) They joined the MAU MAU fighters in the forest, with the main role of organizing and coordinating the rural network.

'Field Marshall' Muthoni went to fight alongside famous warriors of the forest like Dedan Kimathi Waciuri. b) The women in the camps made sure that the family continued intact through all of the while their men were out fighting. They would weed and grow food for family use. c) While men were in the forests, Mau Mau women continued to educate their children to be the future leaders of their government. Women would collect money and smuggle the brightest children out of Kenya to study overseas through Sudan, Ethiopia and Egypt. d) Many women sought support for Mau Mau internationally. E.g, Mama Sarah Sarai, an ally of Kenyattas, when out of the country would get people to write in support of Mau Mau. e) Some women offered their property for use by mau mau. In Nairobi, Mama Josephine Muthoni offered her cars to be used for Mau Mau activities.

Operating from villages, thousands of women acted as go -betweens and carriers of food and firearms, and generally provided a system of intelligence. i) Women composed songs like the Kanyegenuri, to commemorate their deeds, like the bravery of Mary Nyanjiru. Years later the song became the Mau Mau anthem of resistance j) They also recruited for Mau Mau fighters. k) They officiated at and participated in oathing ceremonies. Some like Waithera allowed themselves to be subjected to unnatural sexual acts for the sake of the movement. l) In forest camps, women would serve male leaders as Kabatuni (a small platoon to be commanded by the man), doing minor military duties like cleaning guns as well as seeing to the other needs like meeting his sexual needs. m) Some women were co-opted in the political Arena in the mau mau duo-sex councils. For example Muthoni Ngatha - even rose to the senior position of Field Marshal. In June 1953 Wagiri Njoroge was crowned as the Queen of Mau Mau and ruled for 7 months. n) Women also contributed the services of their children who served as errand boys and girls and informers. o) Women were allowed to flirt with \"enemies\" to gather vital information, weapons and other resources. For example, in Gakenia's village in Nanyuki, four girls lured four loyalist African soldiers to Kaarage Forest where the soldiers were killed and their rifles taken. p) Some women like Wanjiru were appointed judges in Nakuru's Mau Mau Courts which passed sentences on anti-Mau Mau crimes. These illustrated by the emergence of a small number of women who acted as executioners. **Problems caused by presence of women in forests during mau mau wars ** a) Some women could not withstand the harsh forest conditions of torrential rains and bitter cold and constantly fell sick b) Many women could not defend themselves against enemies and were therefore a burden to men. c) Women would be extra mouths to feed, but would do very little useful things in return. d) Occasionally, women could cause tension and conflict among male guerillas as the men competed for sexual favours from the small number of women. **CONSTITUTIONAL CHANGES LEADING TO INDEPENDENCE. ** **African representation to the Legco. ** ----- 322 ### In 1944, Eliud Mathu, a former teacher at Alliance School, the first African was appointed to the LegCo. KAUs demand for more representation in 1946 caused the appointment of Benaiah Ohanga as the second African to the LegCo. By 1948, there were four Africans in the LegCo compared to 11 Europeans, 5 Asians and 2 Arabs. Various commission reports made significant pointers to the fact that the British government had realized the need to involve Africans in the administration and need to reduce settler influence. For example; ***1) The Report of the East African Royal Commission of 1955 proposed; *** ~ An end of racial segregation. ~ Increased involvement of Africans in the colonial administration ~ Opening of the Kenya Highlands to all races. ***2) The Swynnerton Plan of 1954 proposed the consolidation and registration of*** African land with a view to having better land management. ***3) The report on African wages and the Lidbury Commission on Civil Service*** recommended better pay for African workers. **The Lyttelton Constitution** In 1954, the British secretary for colonies visited Kenya in the wake of the Mau Mau Uprising and made the following constitutional proposals; a) A multi- racial Council of Ministers to replace the executive council, which would include one African (B.A. Ohanga, minister for community development and African affairs), two Asians and three Europeans. For the first time, Africans were represented with members with executive powers. b) Lifting the ban on African political Associations. This was done in 1955 though only Africans were allowed to form local (district based) political organizations. Tom Mboya formed the Nairobi Peoples convention Party while D. Mwanyumba formed the Taita African Democratic Union. John Kebaso formed the Abagusii Association, Argwings Kodhek formed the Kenya National Congress and John Keen the Maasai Front. c) Africans were able to take part in elections of 1957. /it proposed multi-racial elections. However, other than race-pegged rules for participation in the elections, voting qualification for Africans were based on income, property and education d) Proposed direct representation of Africans in the LEGCO. In march 1957, the African elections to the Legco were held and Tom Mboya(Nairobi), Masinde Muliro( Northern Nyanza), Oginga Odinga(Central Nyanza), Lawrence Ogunda(south Nyanza), Ronald Ngala( Coast ), Daniel Arap Moi( Rift Valley), James Miumi(Ukambani) and Bernard Mate (central)were elected. The elected Africans formed the African Elected Members Organization (AEMO) with Odinga as chairman and Mboya as secretary. ----- 323 ### **Demands of AEMO after formation** a) They contested the fewer African positions in the LegCo by condemning the Lyttelton constitution. While elected members were 29, nominated members were 30, majority of who were Europeans. b) They protested the rigid voter qualification requirements imposed on Africans and demanded that every African of 21 years and above be allowed to vote, regardless of education or income. c) They demanded that registration of voters be done on a common roll. d) They called for the end of a State of Emergency. **Role played by AEMO in the struggle for independence up to 1963. ** a) They formed pressure groups to demand for greater political rights for Africans. e.g., formation of AEMO. b) They formed the core team, which pressurized for independence. c) They made known the grievances of Africans in International Fora. d) They networked with other African nationalists elsewhere e.g. in Ghana and Nigeria to hasten achievement of independence in Kenya. e) They fought for the release of detained nationalists e.g. Kenyatta. f) They formed he national political parties e.g. KANU and KADU, which led the country to independence. g) They educated and created awareness among the masses about the nationalists struggle. h) They took part in the formulation of the independence constitution. **The Lennox-Boyd Constitution. ** In 1958, Sir Allan Lennox- Boyd, who had succeeded Oliver Lyttelton as secretary State for Colonies visited Kenya and made the following constitutional proposals; a) An increase by six LegCo Seats for Africans to bring their total representation to 14 seats. b) A special membership in the LegCo, with four members from each race, who were to elected by other members of the LegCo. c) An increase of the number of African ministers to two. AEMO members rejected the Lennox-Boyd proposals saying they still favoured white monopoly in the colony especially the specially elected membership to LegCo. AEMO also called for the unconditional release of Jomo Kenyatta. They even boycotted the Legco from 1958 to 1959 when a new constitutional conference was promised. Acted of Betrayal became evident among Africans when Musa Amalemba and Wanyutu Waweru accepted the special seats appointment and even Amalemba went ahead to appointed the second African Minister for Housing in 1958.Other developments in 1959 included; ----- 324 ### ~ The White moderates led by Michael Blundell (who resigned as minister of agriculture) formed the New Party of Kenya (NPK). He was backed by 46 non -African members of the LegCo for his ideas of multi-racialism. ~ The white extremists led by Captain Briggs formed the United Party (UP) demanding for the abolishing of the LegCo and replacing it with regional assemblies. This was aimed at preserving the white highlands as one regional assembly for European benefits. ~ Increased divisions on AEMO between radicals and moderates .Ngala, Moi, Mate, Towett and Nyagah resigned from AEMO to form the Kenya National Party (KNP) advocating multi-racialism. This party was interestingly joined by all Arab and Asian members. ~ The radicals led by Mboya, Odinga and Gikonyo Kiano formed the Kenya Independent Movement (KIM) that was exclusively for African membership. They demanded convening of a full constitutional conference to discuss Kenyas future and release of Jomo Kenyatta. **The Lancaster House Conferences ** The Conferences were called to iron out the differences that arose out of the fact that both radical Europeans and AEMO members opposed multi-racialism. The First Lancaster House Conference (1960 ) The conference was convened by Ian MacLeod, the secretary of state for colonies. it was attended by all members of the LegCo.. The African team was led by Ronald Ngala and Tom Mboya was the secretary. The conference came up with the following compromise decisions; a) The 12 elective seats In the LegCo would remain intact. b) There were to 33 open seats in the LegCo, which were to be vied for on a common roll. c) Another 20 seats would be reserved 10 of these for Europeans, 8 for Asians and 2 for Arabs. d) The composition of the Council of Ministers was to be altered to incorporate 4 Africans, 3 Europeans and 1 Asian. e) The conference authorized the formation of countrywide political parties for Africans. KANU and KANU were formed.The Lancaster conference however failed to entirely please both Africans and the settlers. Some settlers, finding the new turn events so tough began to sell their property and leave Kenya. Africans though feeling that they had not been given a responsive government, accepted ministerial positions as follows; a) Ronald Ngala- Minister for Labour, Social Security and Adult Education. b) Julius Gikonyo Kiano- Minister for Commerce and Industry. c) Musa Amalemba- Minister for Housing, Common Services, Probation and Approved Schools. d) James Nzaui Miumi- Minister for Health and Welfare. ----- 325 ### Out of fear of political domination by the big tribes the following new alliances were formed; a) The Kalenjin Political Alliance of Taita Towett. b) The Coast African Political Union of Ronald Ngala. c) The Kenya African Peoples Party of Masinde Muliro. In the 1961 elections KANU won but refused to form government demanding release of Kenyatta. KADU was invited by the governor, Patrick Renson to form a coalition government with Europeans and Asians. When Kenyatta came on 21 [st] August 1961, Kariuki Njiiri offered his Muranga seat to Kenyatta to enable him join LegCo. **The second Lancaster conference (1962) ** The main aim of this conference, called by the then secretary for colonies, Reginald Maulding was to the independence constitution acceptable to the two main parties KADU and KANU. It also aimed at reconciling the differences between the two parties. KANU delegation was led by Jomo Kenyatta while Ngala led the KADU group. KANU conceded many KADU grounds to enable success of the negotiations. **Main provisions of the independence constitution of Kenya ** a) The independence constitution provided for a regional/majimbo government with each region having a regional assembly and p resident. b) It also provided for a bicameral parliament consisting of the senate and the house of representatives/upper house and lower house. c) The constitution stipulated that the Prime Minister was to be head of Government and Queen the Head of State, represented by the Governor General. d) The constitution recommended a multiparty system of government and the party with the majority of seats forming the government. e) It contained the Bill of Rights, which protected the individuals rights. In the elections of 1963, KANU won with 73 seats against KADUs 31, APPs 8. Jomo Kenyatta became the first Prime Minister on 1 [st] June 1963.On 12 December, Kenya attained full independence. On 12 [th] December 1964, Kenya became a republic with Kenyatta becoming an executive president. **EMERGENCE AND GROWTH OF NATIONALISM IN AFRICA ** **Factors for the rise of nationalism in Africa ** a) The exposure of Africans to severe economic exploitation during the colonial period. For example land alienation in the Kenya Highlands, in southern Rhodesian, Algeria and South Africa which was accompanied with forced labour where the labourers faced mistreatment. b) Africans were fed up of heavy and harsh taxation by the Europeans. They were exposed to heavy taxation, ranging from hut tax to breast tax in Belgian Congo. c) Africans were fed up with the gradual destruction of their culture by the whites. ----- 326 ### Missionaries totally dismissed the age-old African traditions as being barbaric. This explains why independent schools and churches sprung up in central Kenya. d) The introduction of racial discrimination to go hand in hand with colonialism. All the best social amenities in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Kenya were reserved for the whites. The Europeans equated the black colour with low intelligence, uncivilized and a backward race. e) Africans resented colonialism because it interfered with their political institutions. The colonial rulers disregarded traditional rulers, appointing their own puppets in their place. f) The Acquisition of western education by many Africans by 1945 enabled them to articulate their grievances more forcefully and to understand political developments outside Africa. g) The return of the ex-servicemen after the second world war which exposed the myth of the white supremacy making Africans ready to fight them. Moreover, the colonial government failed to reward African ex-soldiers to embitter them more. h) The change of government from Conservative to Labour Party in Britain in 1946 stimulated a new attitude in Britain towards decolonization. This motivated African nationalists. i) The rise of nationalism in Asia, culminating into the granting of independence to India and Pakistan in 1947 aroused great confidence among Africans who worked closely with Asian nationalists like Jawaharlal Nehru, the India Prime Minister. j) The rise of Pan-Africanism in Africa after the 1945 Manchester conference contributed to the new demands for political independence in Africa Many African lites attended the conference which served as a source of awakening. k) The formation of the UNO and the pressure it exerted on the European powers to decolonize helped the Africans in their course. l) The emergence of United States and the Soviet Union as super powers in the world contributed to the decolonization process. USA was keen to see Britain and France grant independence to their subjects in the world in order to secure new markets. m) The signing of the Atlantic Charter in 1941 by Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt which demanded that when the WWII ended, all subject peoples should enjoy the right to self-determination. **NATIONALISM IN GHANA ** The British annexed Gold Coast in 1874 after quelling a stiff resistance by the Asante. In response to the British imperialism, the Fonte Confederation was initiated in 1868, marking the birth of African Nationalism in Ghana. In 1897, the Aborigines Rights Protection Society was formed to guard against the alienation of African land.In the 1930s, African elites like J.B. Danquah launched the Gold Coast Youth Conference in order to awaken the youth to the economic and social needs of the country.Their efforts bore fruits because in 1946, governor Burns embarked on constitutional reforms leading ----- 327 ### to increased African representation in the LegCo. (Of the 18 slots given to Africans in the LegCo, 13 were to drawn from among the chiefs while 5 were to be popularly elected). The elites formed the United Gold Coast Convention (UGCC) and invited Kwame Nkrumah, a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, to come and lead it since most of them were professionals lacking time for political commitment. Nkrumah appeared to have more political experience having participated in the 1945 Manchester conference. **Factors for the growth of nationalism in Ghana ** a) The early Introduction of cocoa growing led to adoption of money economy in Ghana ahead of other countries. This enabled faster social and economic transformation of the people. b) The colonial governments attempt to tamper with cocoa growing by ordering cutting of coca trees hurt people to the level of developing nationalistic feelings against the British. c) Ghana was one of the first countries in Africa to receive western education from the missionaries. There was a large class of elites with western university education accompanied with leadership skills to spearhead nationalism their country. d) The existence of ex-servicemen in Ghana also played an important role in the campaign for independence. e) The granting of trading licences by the government selectively to European traders while deliberately denying then Africans. f) Ghana had comparatively better developed transport and communication system. Also being a small country, movement of information, ideas and people was easy, quick and efficient. This facilitated nationalist activities. g) The charismatic and strong leadership provided by Kwame Nkrumah brought cohesiveness among people of Ghana. He formed the CPP party, which became the symbol of struggle for the oppressed people of Ghana. h) The participation of Kwame Nkrumah in the Pan-African Manchester conference in 1945, which championed the right of countries to self-determination, made the country take the lead in Africa in championing this right. i) The people of Ghana were more exposed to international affairs than other countries in Africa due to its location in a region, which had the earliest contacts with European traders and colonizers. The peak of nationalism in Ghana.On 28 [th] February 1948, the ex-soldiers led the Accra riots, protesting to Governor Gerald Creasy the failed fulfillment of the government pledges while in service during the World WarII. Two rioters were killed. The shooting incident sparked of chaos in the town leading to another 29 Africans being killed. Nkrumah was arrested together with his colleagues popularly known as the Big Six. (Nkrumah, Danquah, William Ofori, Addo, Adjei and Obetsebi Lamptey). ----- 328 ### This arrest popularized Nkrumah among the Africans. The 1948 Alken Watson commission blamed the social-economic oppression for the riots. The governor ordered for constitutional reforms led by J.H Coussey.On 12 [th] June 1949, Nkrumah broke ranks with the conservative UGCC senior members and formed the Convention Peoples Party (CPP). His party gained support mainly from among the primary school leavers, store- keepers, artisans, peasants and cocoa farmers. Nkrumah advocated positive action through legitimate political action, newspaper and political campaigns and constitutional application of boycotts, strikes and non-cooperation based on the policy of absolute non- violence on the basis of Mahatma Gandhi teachings. He started a newspaper, The Accra Evening News to expound CPP views. He was arrested, but secured landslide victory in the February 1951 elections while in jail. He was released to become the leader of government business in the new cabinet. CPP also won in the 1954 elections in which a new party, the National Liberation Movement (NLM) had emerged to compete CPP. NLM membership mainly from the Ashanti, were uncomfortable with Nkrumah because; ~ He came from a small ethnic group little known in southern Ghana. ~ His radicalism did not please the conservative Ashanti leaders. Again elections were called in July 1956 and CPP trounced NLM. This time, the British accepted the results and on 6 [th] March 1957, the country attained political independence under Kwame Nkrumah **Achievements of CPP under Kwame Nkrumah** a) CPP under Nkrumah united Africans of all ranks in Ghana in the struggle for national liberation. b) The party introduced the concept of positive action to pressurize the government to liberate Africans. c) CPP formed the first African government in Africa in 1951 after winning the elections. Under Nkrumahs leadership, Ghana began attaining economic development. d) CPP, under Nkrumah, advocated for unity of all Africans in the country us other parties like NLM advocated for regionalism, a factor that enhanced progress towards political libration.How Kwame Nkrumah contributed to the liberation struggle in Africa. a) He funded nationalists in other countries e.g. Guinea and Algeria. b) He supported other African leaders who faced political threats from their former colonial masters. c) When some countries were faced with threats from their former colonial masters after independence like in the case of Patrice Lumumba in DRC, Nkrumah provided them with his support. d) He championed trade unionism in Africa. e) He attended pan-African congress in 1945 which was key to defining the liberation struggles in Africa. f) He initiated the formation of the Ghana- Guinea Union in 1958 as a practical step towards building African unity. ----- 329 ### g) He convened two pan-African conferences in April 1958 and the all African Peoples conference in December 1958 that led to the formation of O.A.U in 1963. **NATIONALISM IN MOZAMBIQUE ** Mozambique was among the last countries in Africa to attain independence from the Portuguese. Even before the Berlin conference, Mozambique and Angola were considered Portuguese colonies owing to the laters interests in the region dating back to the pioneer years. **Reasons for slow process in decolonization process of Mozambique. ** a) Mozambique was colonized by a colonial power that was very poor and backward and which needed to keep its hold on her to enable her economy grow. She was an important source of revenue for the Lisbon government. b) Mozambique housed many settlers who had invested heavily in farming, mining, building, construction and in other sectors. They were therefore reluctant to leave. c) Mozambique was an important market for Portuguese products. Portugal was not willing to let go easily. d) The support, which the colonial government got from South Africa, enabled them to get uranium, which they used, for making bombs used to suppress African independence riots. They also got electricity and assistance to built caborra bassa dam on Zambezi. e) Mozambique was big geographically with very poor infrastructure i.e. roads and communication facilities. This hampered fast movement of people and ideas. f) Unlike other colonized countries, Mozambique suffered the worst kind of exploitation and repression/ rigorous censorship and surveillance by security forces, which discouraged emergence of nationalism. g) The Portuguese practiced racism out of fear that if they educated Africans and gave them equal status, the Africans would outnumber them and throw them out. **Factors for the growth of nationalism in Mozambique. ** a) The arbitrary replacement of the traditional rulers by the Portuguese administrators whenever they felt they were not performing. b) The massive alienation of African land by the Portuguese who pushed Africans to regions of unfavourable conditions. c) The exposure of Africans to severe economic exploitation like forced labour where the labourers faced mistreatment. d) The rampant racial discrimination through which Africans continued to lose agricultural land to the Europeans. Being from a poor country, the Europeans competed with Africans for simple jobs like taxi driving and often gaining advantage on racial lines. e) The Portuguese imposed many restrictions on Africans, limiting their freedom of expression and intellectual advancement. For example, General Salazar, who rose to power in the 1920s, ensured strict censorship of the press. ----- 330 ### f) The security police treated Africans with great cruelty. Any political unrest was crushed ruthlessly. The peak of nationalism in Mozambique . In early 1960, the Makonde people of Cabo Delgado province formed the MozambicanMakonde Union (MANU).In June 1960 MANU organized a peaceful protest but in which over 600 Africans perished in police firepower. The government outlawed all African organizations with membership of over thirty people. African political activities went underground. Mwalimu Julius Nyerere inviting some of the liberation groups to relocate to Tanzania in 1962. The political groups united to form the Liberation Front of Mozambique (FRELIMO) with Eduardo Mondlane Chirambo, formerly a lecturer at Syracuse University in USA, as its first president.From 1962 to 1964, FRELIMO undertook guerilla training in Bagamoyo and at the Mozambique institute in Dar es Salam in preparation for war. From September 1964, they began a full-scale war against the Portuguese along river Ruvuma and extending their attacks on the Cabo Delgado province. By 1967, the Portuguese forces numbered 65,000 soldiers.Mondlane Eduardo was assassinated in 1969. Samora Machel was elected to become the FRELIMO army commander in 1970.The coup detat in Lisbon in 1974 was a blessing to FRELIMO movement since soldiers who did not favour colonial wars by Marcello Caetano carried it out. The new military junta finally signed an agreement with FRELIMO the enabled the setting up of a transitional gover nment in September 1974. He handed over power to the Africans in 1975 with Samora Machel becoming the first president. Machel died in 1986 in a plane crash blamed on the South African Apartheid regime, unhappy with his support for African nationalists in South Africa.Samora Machels widow, Graca Machel, married South African President Nelson Mandela in 1994. **Reasons why the struggle for independence in Mozambique was violent** a) The depth of suffering by ordinary people in Mozambique was unbearable. b) The harshness of the Portuguese administration could only be matched with similar violence. c) The unwillingness of Portugal to ease her colonial hold and begin the process of decolonization. (they were deeply entrenched in Mozambique) d) Extreme exploitation of Mozambique resources e.g. land, labour, minerals. e) Widespread land alienation left many landless. f) To uproot the Portuguese from Mozambique, they had to use full-scale military operation by the liberators because the masters did not see any sense of granting Mozambique independence peacefully. **Factors that facilitated the defeat of the Portuguese colonial armies by FRELIMO in ** **Mozambique. ** a) A few Africans were privileged to acquire university education in Portugal and came to form the bulk of FRELIMO leadership. ----- 331 ### b) The overwhelming support Mozambique fighters received from other African states e.g. Tanzania, Zimbabwe and DRC. From these countries, they gained moral and military support. c) FRELIMO was a formidable, well-organized force, which witnessed rapid expansion from a mere 250 in 1964 to 35000 in 1967. d) The forested environment favoured guerilla warfare. Moreover, the soldiers knew the topography of the country. e) The local population gave their logistic support to the fighters, having become tired of the extreme suppression by the Portuguese administration. f) The movement fighters had their own supply of food. g) African countries through OAU were united against the Portuguese in Mozambique. h) The communist countries notably USSR and china gave FRELIMO military aid. i) FRELIMO adopted the right strategy; liberating the country bit by bit and systematically. This approach won the local peoples support for the movement. j) The FRELIMO Army consisted of all tribes, all sexes and all ages. The women played a very important role in the success of the war. I.e. spies, some fought, hiding the fighters and cooking for them. **Problems that faced FRELIMO in the war against Portuguese** a) Africans experienced severe shortage of basic needs while in the forests. The government forces ensured that food and other supplies did not reach the fighters. b) The attitude of the church in Mozambique made many African faithful reluctant to support the liberation war. The church termed FRELIMO a terrorist organization. c) FRELIMO suffered internal divisions due to ideological differences and selfish ambitions among some of the nationalists. African elites like Reverend Uria Simango and Lazaro Kavandame saw FRELIMO as an instrument of acquiring assets for their own selfish benefits. d) Competition from rival guerilla movements like Revolutionary Committee of Mozambique (COREMO) which broke away from FRELIMO in 1965 due to the laters lean towards socialism. e) The assassination of FRELIMO leader Eduardo Mondlane in Da es Salaam on 3 [rd] February 1969 was a great blow to the nationalists. f) The brutality employed by the Portuguese in dealing with FRELIMO sympathizers. For example at Wiriyamu, in December 1972, 400 civilians, protesting against the Portuguese administration, were massacred. g) The apartheid regime in South Africa and the Unilateral Declaration of Independence regime in south Rhodesia combined forces to fight the nationalists in Mozambique since they were a threat to their countries. **SOUTH AFRICA. ** The complex nature of nationalism in South Africa was due to the following reasons; a) The country was not colonized by one specific European power. ----- 332 ### b) The existence of valuable mineral deposits made the Europeans more aggressive in their efforts to control the wealth in South Africa. There existed different types of nationalism in South Africa namely; ~ The British nationalism ~ Afrikaner nationalism ~ African nationalism. **Afrikaner nationalism ** Afrikaners were the Dutch speaking speaking settlers. The Afrikaner nationalism emerged in the 19 [th] century reaching its peak in 1948 when their Nationalist Party under Daniel F. Malanwon the lections introducing the Apartheid policy. **Reasons for the birth of Afrikaner Nationalism in South Africa. ** a) The desire to regain the culture against Anglicization, which they considered, was alien. (Anglicization of power, language and cultures) b) The Boers hated the British rule, which they considered as alien. c) The British were dominant in many spheres of life yet they could neither speak nor understand Afrikaners language. d) The Boers wanted to rule South Africa and restore Boer culture, language, education and literature. e) They favoured republican states and complete independence for South Africa and noncooperation with British to fulfill their divine mission of bringing civilization to the heathen. f) The Jameson raid flared up Boer sentiments. Jameson, a Briton led a force of 500 soldiers to invade Transvaal, a Boer territory. g) Formation of union of South Africa under British terms. **African Nationalism ** Its roots are traced in the 17 [th] century with the first Boer occupation of South Africa. Africans resisted strongly against the interference with their political freedom and economic resources. This was in form of the Xhosa and Ndebele wars of the 17 [th] c and the Zulu wars of 1870s led by Cetewayo.In 1906, a Zulu chief named Bambata staged another African uprising this time against the British who had annexed the Zululand in 1887.From 1910, when the union of South Africa was created and the Afrikaners gained political control of South Africa, Africans lost all the political privileges they previously enjoyed like ability to vote and contest parliamentary seats.Africans founded independent churches and formed organizations like the Orange River Organization. **Factors for the growth of African nationalism in South Africa** a) The role of the Christian religion whose ideals encouraged Africans to fight for equality, as all people were equal before God. The Boers however treated Africans with contempt. b) The exposure of Africans to severe economic exploitation like land alienation and causing them to be subjected to forced labour on Afrikaner farms. Even the native Land ----- 333 ### Act of 1913 denied Africans the right to purchase land outside the areas set aside for Africans. c) The influence of Pan-Africanism in South Africa as early as the 19 [th] century when people like Rev. Dube founded the Ohlange Institute to educate fellow Africans in South Africa. d) The introduction of racial discrimination enshrined in the apartheid law of 1948 convinced Africans that only freedom could save them. All the best hotels, restaurants, schools, recreational centres and most fertile soils were reserved for the whites only. e) The Acquisition of western education by many Africans like Rev. Dube, Walter Sisulu and Nelson Mandela enabled them to articulate their grievances more forcefully. They became pioneers of early African political parties. f) The return of the ex-servicemen after the second world war which exposed the myth of the white supremacy making Africans ready to fight them. The war also exposed them to democratic ideals elsewhere. g) The great exploitation of African labour through Labour regulations and laws. For example, the Mines and Works Act of 1911 effectively excluded Africans from all skilled occupations confining them to manual occupations in Mines and farms. h) The development of large urban centres created an enabling environment for Africans to forge close inter-ethnic relations that enabled them to counter the Afrikaner racist policies. **Formation of the African National Congress, 1912 ** Opposition to the Natives Land Act led to the formation of the South African Native NationalCongress (renamed the African National Congress [ANC] in 1923) by South Africa's educated African elite in a meeting at Bloemfontein on January 8, 1912. ~ The founding president was John L. Dube, a minister and schoolteacher. ~ Pixley Ka Isaka Seme, a lawyer, was appointed treasurer. ~ Solomon T. Plaatye, a court translator, became secretary general. ~ Other members were Thomas Mapikela, Walter Robusana, Solomon Plaatye and Sam Makgatho.The congress was moderate in composition, tone, and practice. However, In 1940s, a militant form of nationalism emerged under the ANC Youth League formed in 1943 led by Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu and Oliver Tambo, emphasizing the inalienable right of the Africans to the African continent. As a result of the Leagues activities, violent confrontations between ANC and the government broke out in 1952 in Witwatersrand, Kimberley and Eastern Cape.The Congress of the People and the Freedom CharterIn 1952, Albert Sisulu became the president of the organization and presided over the congress of the people which adopted the Freedom Charter on June 25 and June 26 1955.The congress drew 3,000 delegates from; ~ The black (the ANC). ~ White (the Congress of Democrats). ~ Indian and coloured (the the SA Coloured People's Congress) political organizations ----- 334 ### ~ The multiracial South African Congress of Trade Unions (SACTU). The Freedom Charter emphasized that South Africa should be a non-racial society with no particular group assumed to have special rights or privileges. After adoption of the charter, in 1956 the police arrested 156 leaders, including Luthuli, Mandela, Tambo, Sisulu, and others, and put them on trial for treason in a court case that dragged on for five years. The Pan-Africanist Congress and Sharpeville. The Africanists, led by Robert Sobukwe, criticized the ANC for allowing itself to be dominated by 'liberal-left-multi- racialists. They formed their own organization, the Pan-Africanist Congress (PAC) in 1959. In March 1960, the PAC began a national campaign against the pass laws. One such demonstration outside the police station at Sharpeville, the police fired on the demonstrators, killing at least 76 of them and wounding 186. Approximately 18,000 demonstrators were arrested, including the leaders of the ANC and the PAC, and both organizations outlawed. **The ANC and the PAC Turn to Violence ** Prohibited from operating, both the ANC and the PAC established underground organizations in 1961. The militant wing of the ANC, Umkhonto we Sizwe (Spear of the Nation), targeted strategic places such as police stations and power plants. Poqo (Blacks Only), the militant wing of the PAC, engaged in a campaign of terror, targeting in particular African chiefs and headmen believed to be collaborators with the government and killing them. 17 Umkhonto leaders, including Walter Sisulu were arrested at Rivonia farm house. Along with Nelson Mandela, they were tried for treason. Albert Luthuli was confined by government to his rural home in Zululand until his death in 1967. Tambo escaped from South Africa and became president of the ANC in exile. Robert Sobukwe of Poqo was jailed on Robben Island until 1969 and then placed under house arrest in Kimberley until his death in 1978. The Johannesburg railway station bomber, John Harris, was hanged. **The Black conscious movement - Soweto, 1976 ** In the absence of other forms of political expression, young people sought alternative means to express their political aspirations. African university students, disappointed with the multiracial National Union of South African Students (NUSAS), decided to establish the South African Students' Organization (SASO) in 1969 with Steve Biko, an African medical student at the University of Natal, as president.In 1972, a Black allied workers union and the Black Peoples' Convention (BPC) was set up to act as a political umbrella organization for the adherents of black consciousness. In 1972, SASO organized strikes on university campuses resulting in the arrest of more than 600 students.

Botha's government proposed establishment of separate houses of parliament for each racial group. In place of the single House of Parliament were; ~ A 50-member (all-white) House of Assembly. ~ A 25-member (coloured) House of Representatives. ~ A 13 member (Indian) House of Delegates. **Implications and results ** ~ Whites thus retained a majority in any joint session. ~ Liberal government opponents denounced Botha's plans arguing it would permanentlyexclude Africans from any political role in South Africa. ~ Most blacks strongly condemned the new constitution as it reinforced the apartheid notion. ~ Indians and coloureds also condemned the constitution feeling it weakened their participation in the political process ~ Radical Afrikaners, led by Eugene Terry Blanche, vowed to use all means, including violence, to make sure that apartheid was not weakened.The United Democratic Front (UDF), which was formed in late 1983 and the National Front (NF) aimed to use nonviolent means to persuade the government to withdraw its constitutional proposals and do away with apartheid. The UDF membership included, Bishop Desmond Tutu and the Reverend Allan Boesak, who emerged as its prime spokesmen.Black trade unions meanwhile resorted to economic and political protests. For example, TheNational Union of Mineworkers (NUM), formed in 1983 by Cyril Ramaphosa, successfully brought work in mines to a stop in a dispute over wage increases. By end of 1985, 879, fatalities and 8000 arrests were linked to political unrest. ANC and UDF were banned.Meanwhile, Supporters of the Zulu-dominated Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) and the banned ANC clashed in an upsurge of \"black-on-black\" violence that would cause as many as 10,000 deaths by 1994.President Botha resigned under pressure on August 14, 1989, the Electoral College named de Klerk to succeed him in a five-year term as president. In October 1989, De Klerk released Walter Sisulu and others except Mandela. He announced on February 2, 1990, the impending release of Mandela and unbanning of the ANC, the PAC, and the SACP, and the removal of restrictions on the UDF and other legal political organizations.

ANC officials elected Mandela deputy president in March 1990, under ailing president, Oliver Tambo.Between June 5, 1991 and June 17, 1991, the government repealed the pillars of apartheid, the Land Act of 1913, the Group Areas Act of 1950 and Population Registration Act of 1950, (the most infamous, which had authorized the registration by race of newborn babies and immigrants). Most international sanctions were lifted soon after the Population Registration Act, Group Areas Act, and Land Acts were repealed. ----- 336 ### In mid-1992 due to escalating violence, by IFP supporters on ANC sympathizers in Boipatong delayed the process of negotiation for elections. On March 5, 1993, Chris Hani, the popular general secretary of the South African Communist Party (SACP), was murdered threatening the process again.On April 12, 1994, a team headed by former British foreign secretary Lord Carrington and former United States secretary of state Henry Kissinger attempted in vain to break the logjam that was keeping the IFP out of the elections. However, on April 19, Buthelezi --under intense pressure from trusted local and international figuresincluding a Kenyan diplomat professor Washington Okumu, relented and agreed to allow the IFP to be placed on the ballot.When the elections finally took place on schedule, beginning on April 26, 1994, ANC won 62.6 percent of the vote; the NP, 20.4 percent; and the IFP, 10.5 percent.

It started in 1914 and ended in 1918. 135 countries took part in World War I, and more than 15,000,000 people died in the war. **World War One - Causes ** The First World War, which began in August 1914, was directly triggered by the assassination of the Austrian archduke, Franz Ferdinand and his wife, on 28 June 1914 by Bosnian revolutionary, Gavrilo Princip. This event was, however, simply the trigger that set off declarations of war. **The actual causes of the war were; ** **1) The system of Alliances ** An alliance is an agreement made between two or more countries to give each other help if it is needed. A number of alliances had been signed by countries between the years 1879 and 1914. For example, the Dual Alliance signed by Germany with Austria Hungary in 1879 and later joined by Italy in 1882 to become the triple Alliance. This system led to the division of Europe into two antagonistic power blocs. It led to fear and suspicion between nations. It transformed local disputes into a general conflict. The Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy were directly opposed by the Entente powers of France and Russia and later included Great Britain to form the Triple Entente in 1907. **2) Imperialism ** Imperialism is when a country takes over new lands or countries and makes them subject to their rule. By 1900, the British Empire extended over five continents and France had control of large areas of Africa. With the rise of industrialism, countr- ies needed new markets. The amount of lands 'owned' by Britain and France increased their rivalry with Germany who had entered the scramble to acquire colonies late and only had small areas of Africa. **3) Economic rivalry. ** According to Marxism, the highest form of capitalism would ultimately lead to an inevitable war through economic rivalry. In the late 19th century, all European powers had industrialized or had started. Therefore, to match the needs of economy and industry, nations sought to expand their territory through imperialism in order to gain raw mater- ials and markets. This then led to the clash of imperial interest between nations and ultimately led to conflict and war. **4) Militarism ** Militarism means that the army and military forces are given a high profile by the government. The growing European divide had led to an arms race between the main ----- 392 ### countries. The armies of both France and Germany had more than doubled between 1870 and 1914 and there was fierce competition between Britain and Germany for mastery of the seas. The British had introduced the 'Dreadnought', an effective battleship, in 1906. The Germans soon followed suit introducing their own battle- ships. The German, Von Schlieffen also drew up a plan of action that involved attacking France through Belgium if Russia made an attack on Germany. **5) Nationalism ** Nationalism means being a strong supporter of the rights and interests of one's country. The Congress of Vienna, held after Napoleon's exile to Elba, aimed to sort out problems in Europe. Delegates from Britain, Austria, Prussia and Russia decided upon a new Europe that left both Germany and Italy as divided states. Strong nationalist elements led to the re-unification of Italy in 1861 and Germany in 1871. The settlement at the end of the Franco-Prussian war left France angry at the loss of Alsace-Lorraine to Germany and keen to regain their lost territory. Large areas of both Austria-Hungary and Serbia were home to differing nationalist groups, all of whom wanted freedom from the states in which they lived. **6) Moroccan Crisis ** In 1904 Morocco had been given to France by Britain, but the Moroccans wanted their independence. In 1905, Germany announced her support for Moroccan indepe- ndence. War was narrowly avoided by a conference which allowed France to retain possession of Morocco. However, in 1911, the Germans were again protesting against French possession of Morocco. Britain supported France and Germany was persuaded to back down for part of French Congo. **7) Bosnian Crisis ** In 1908, Austria-Hungary took over the former Turkish province of Bosnia. This angered Serbians who felt the province should be theirs. Serbia threatened Austria Hungary with war. Russia, allied to Serbia, mobilized its forces. Germany, allied to Austria-Hungary mobilized its forces and prepared to threaten Russia. War was avoided when Russia backed down. There was, however, war in the Balkans between **SPECIAL COVERAGE ** **The First Moroccan Crisis ** The First Moroccan Crisis clearly indicated that Germanys relation with France was at best fragile. In 1905 Morocco was one of the few African states not occupied by a European power. In May 1905 it was agreed that an international conference should be held on Morocco in Algeciras. **The Algeciras Conference of 1906 ** The main aim was to decide what was to be done with regards to Morocco. The two main protagonists at Algeciras were France and Germany. However, it soon became very clear to Germany that other European powers had sided with France Britain, Spain and Italy. The Algeciras Conference ended on April 7 [th] ----- 393 ### 1906.The Germans got very little out of the conference. The plan to create a triple alliance or even a quadruple alliance to isolate Great Britain failed. Arguably, by the end of the conference, Britain and France had even closer ties to one another. A German presence in North Africa had also failed to materialize. The French media portrayed Germany as an inferior nation, much to the concern of the more experienced politicians in Paris. The Algeciras Conference may have resolved the crisis in Morocco but the outcome clearly defined Europe into certain camps. At this conference Germany publicly lost out . **The Agadir Crisis of 1911 (the Second Moroccan Crisis.) ** The Agadir Crisis occurred in 1911 just four years after the First Moroccan Crisis. Germanys attention was diverted after the 1905-06 crises by other issues, mainly building up her navy so that it rivaled the Royal Navy. As a result France spent five years having far more influence in Morocco than Germany. They backed the corrupt Sultan, Abdul Aziz, who was accused by some of his countrymen of selling out Morocco to the French. The half-brother of Aziz, Mulay Hafid, took a stand on behalf of the Moroccan people who proclaimed him Sultan in January 1908. Fez also came under attack. In April 1911 a decision was made in Germany to send troops to Fez to support the foreign contingent living there. The plan was to send German warships to Agadir and Mogador ostensibly to defend German citizens in Morocco. A gunboat, the Panther, was sent to Agadir on July 1 [st] 1911. **What part did the Agadir Crisis play in the outbreak of World War One? ** The episode proved that Germany was hell-bent on trying to dominate Europe as a whole. Winston Churchill and David Lloyd George were among those who believed this. 1911 and 1912 when the Balkan states drove Turkey out of the area. The states then fought each other over which area should belong to which state. Austria -Hungary then intervened and forced Serbia to give up some of its acquisitions. Tension between Serbia and Austria-Hungary was high. **8) The Assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand ** A secret society called Ujedinjenje Ili Smrt, ('Union or Death') or Black Hand was founded in Belgrade, an outgrowth of an older Serb nationalist group: Narodna Odbrana. When it was learned that the Heir-Apparent to the Austrian throne, Franz Ferdinand, was scheduled to visit Sarajevo in June of 1914, the Black Hand decided to assassinate him. Three young Bosnians were recruited, trained and equipped: Gavrilo Princip, Nedjelko Cabrinovic and Trifko Grabez. The murders of Franz Ferdinand and Sophie brought Austro-Serbian tensions to a head. As Vienna took a hard line against Serbia, the other powers in Europe took sides. The wheels of war gained speed. The Crisis of July turned into world war, just over thirty days after Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie were shot. **System of Alliances. ** By 1914, Europe had divided into two camps. 1) The Triple Alliance was Germany, Italy and Austria-Hungary. ----- 394 ### 2) The Triple Entente was Britain, France and Russia. **1) The Triple Alliance ** The alliance between Germany and Austria was natural. Both spoke the same language - German - and had a similar culture. Austria was in political trouble in the south-east of Europe - the Balkans. She needed the might of Germany to back her up if trouble got worse. Italy had joined these countries as she feared their power on her northern border. Each member of the Triple Alliance (Germany, Austria and Italy) promised to help the others if they were attacked by another country. By the close of the war the Central Powers had been extended to incorporate Bulgaria and Turkey **2) The Triple Entente ** The Entente Powers comprised a military alliance - driven by a variety of inter-related treaties - of France, Great Britain and Russia.The Entente alliance sprang from the military concerns of Germany's neighbours to east and west. Russia and France; accordingly in 1894 they signed an alliance based upon fears of growing German power. Britain subsequently forged alliances with both Russia and France once it became clear that Germany intended to construct a navy to match the Royal Navy in the late 1890s. Thus the Entente Alliance was not a formal alliance. The term was later replaced by the more general 'Allies' to include other nations including Italy and Japan. **THE COURSE OF THE WAR. ** The war was fought in three continents; Europe, Africa and Asia and both on land and on the sea. In Europe, the war was fought in two fronts 1. The Western Front was where most of the fighting between Germany and the Allies happened. The war in western front was fought in Belgium and France as per the Schlieffen plan. Count Alfred von Schlieffen, mastermind of the Schlieffen Plan, served as Germany's Chief of the Imperial General Staff from 1891 to 1905. It was Schlieffen's plan, long after he retired fro army (1906) that was used for the August 1914 attack on France that was to trigger World War One. The Schlieffen Plan entailed an attack on France (while Russia mobilised her army) followed by an attack on Russia. The plan meant that Germany could place the bulk of her military might on one frontier and then move it to another. **The basic mechanics of Von Schlieffens plan were; ** a) A devastating attack on France via neutral Belgium as soon as Russia had announced her intention to mobilise, which would take six weeks. b) A holding operation on the Russian/German border to be carried out if necessary and if required. c) Germany was to use 6 weeks to defeat France. a massive and successful surprise attack against France would be enough to put off Britain becoming involved in a continental war ----- 395 ### d) Germany would then use her modernised rail system to move troops quickly from the French operation to the Russian front. Russia would then be attacked and defeated. **The Schlieffen Plan was daring but it had a number of glaring weaknesses: ** a) The actions of Russia determined when Germany would have to start her attack on France even if she was ready or not. b) It assumed that Russia would need six weeks to mobilise. But she mobilized faster than it was assumed. c) It assumed that Germany would defeat France in less than six weeks. Early on July 31, Russia began a full mobilization of its forces in preparation for war with Austria-Hungary. On August 1, Germany declared war on Russia and German troops began moving into Luxembourg in preparation for invading Belgium and France. On August 2, Germany contacted the Belgian government requesting free passage through Belgium for its troops. This was refused by King Albert and Germany declared war on both Belgium and France on August 3.The German Army went into Belgium on the 4 August. On the same day, Great Britain started a war on Germany, because Britain was a friend of Belgium. When the Germans got to the Belgian city of Lige, they did finally push the Belgians out of the city, but it had taken longer than the German generals had planned.On December 24-25, 1914, there was a temporary halt to the fighting on parts of the Western Front. This was the Christmas truce.The initial force behind the Christmas Truce came from the Germans. Christmas was celebrated in full, with men visiting across the lines and gifts of food and tobacco being exchanged. As Christmas ended, both sides reluctantly returned to war, the bonds forged at Christmas slowly eroded as units rotated out and the fighting became more ferocious.By 1915, the Western Front had become a stalemate as both sides engaged in trench warfare.The men on both sides took spades and dug lines of trenches went all the way from Switzerland to the North Sea, because they did not want to be killed. In front of the trenches, there was barbed wire that cut anyone who tried to climb over it, and mines that blew up anyone who tried to run across the \"no man's land\" that was in between the trenches. Gas was also an important weapon used.The war in the west was static in the next three years and attempts by the military commanders on both sides to break the stalemate led to deaths of many soldiers. At the battle of the Somme in 1916 60,000 British men died in a single day. It was one of the bloodiest days in the history of the British army. Seeking to shatter the Anglo-French lines, the German Chief of Staff, Erich von Falkenhayn, began planning a massive assault on the French city of Verdun. The Battle of Verdun lasted from February 21, 1916 until December 18, 1916 and was one of the longest and bloodiest battles of World War I. A brutal battle of attrition, Verdun cost the French an estimated 161,000 dead, 101,000 missing and 216,000 wounded. German losses were approximately 142,000 killed and 187,000 wounded. 2. The Eastern Front was fought in Central and Eastern Europe and was one of the ----- 396 ### main places where World War I took place. The start of the war on the eastern front involved an attack on Russia on 1 [st] of august 1914. On August 6, Austria-Hungary declared war on Russia and six days later entered into hostilities with France and Britain. The Russians were decisively defeated by allied forces of Austria and Germany at the battle of Tanneberg in august 1914 and at the battle of Missourian Lakes in September 1914. **War in the seas ** Some of the fiercest battles between the Allies and the central powers took place in the sea.By May 1916, Germanys main fleet was stationed in the North Sea to attack Britains fleet. However, the British intelligence decoded the German wireless code and was able to prepare the royal navy to fully counter Germanys challenge. Both sides suffered causalities in the war that followed. 11 german ships and 14 British ships were lost. **Importance of Britains supremacy at sea ** a) The British naval forces assisted in blocking the central powers particularly the Germans from accessing food and raw materials from other parts of the world. This derailed their war plans. b) Her naval supremacy enabled the allies to capture colonies of the central powers. c) The sea blockade enabled the allies to maintain uninterrupted communication with other allied forces, as well as safeguard the british food and raw material supplies from other parts of the world. **The final phase of World War 1 ** The final phase of the war was a second Germany onslaught on France in 1918 where the Germans were decisively defeated in the hands of USA soldiers. **End of World War I. ** ***Two events that led to the end of World War I were: *** 1) Russias withdrawal from the war after the Great Russian revolution. 2) The declaration of war by the United States of America against the central powers. **The First Russian Revolution ** In 1917, there was a revolution in Russia. The Russian people didn't want to fight anymore, because the war had been putting burdens on them, and many of them were poor and hungry. **The Second Russian Revolution ** Two factions fought to rule over Russia. The passive Mensheviks lost against radical Bolsheviks. The leader of the Bolsheviks was Vladimir Lenin (1870-1924) which was Communist who followed the ideas of Karl Marx. The new government sued the Germans for peace, and signed a peace treaty called Brest-Litvosk with the Central Powers in March 1918 at the city of Brest Litovsk. ----- 397 ### The Germans and Russians stopped fighting. This gave Germany lots of land in Eastern Europe and the Baltic Sea **USA entry into the war. ** The German generals using submarines named U-boats (underwater boats) attacked American ships (Lusitania) that were carrying food and weapons to Great Britain. Some Americans were killed by the submarines.Germany also wrote a secret telegram note to Mexico suggesting that the two countries work together to attack the United States (the Zimmerman Telegram- because the person who sent it was named Arthur Zimmerman- the german foreign minister). **Other reasons why USA entered the war on the side of the Allies were; ** a) America was concerned with safeguarding her trade with Britain. (US Anglo relationship was strong). USA was fully aware that the a defeat of Allied powers would cost her financial and industrial institutions b) The USA and British intelligence were able to link some Germany sympathizers with the industrial sabotage in factories and trade unions in the USA. c) Cruelty of the Germans led to the growth of anti-Germany feelings in the United States. Many of the Allies sympathizers had relatives in either France or Britain. American people decided that they wanted their country to enter the war to punish Germany. On April 6, 1917 the United States declared war against Germany and became part of the Allies.The socialist politicians declared Germany a republic and met with the Supreme Commander of the allied forces on 7 [th] November 1918, Ferdinand Foch, to negotiate for end of the war with very stiff terms to the Germans. **The stiff terms given to the Germans included; ** a) Germany to withdraw from all occupied territories, including overseas colonies. b) All German forces west of the Rhine to be withdrawn. c) All German warships to surrender to the Allies. d) Occupation of some parts of Germany by the Allies. e) All Allied prisoners of war to be released. The Germans were given 72 hours to either accept or reject these stiff conditions. Protesting bitterly, they signed an armistice on 9 [th] November 1918. At 11:00 AM on 9 [th] November 1918, the war ended. **Reasons why the allies won World War I. ** a) Allied powers had many supporters drawn from 25 states some of which were Britain, France, Belgium, Russia, Italy, USA, Japan and Portugal. They had more manpower than the central powers. b) Germany failure to effectively control her expensive colonies and others turned against her. c) USA entry into war on the side of the allies accelerated the defeat of the central powers. The industrial might of USA and her economic wealth helped the Allies to force the central powers to their knees. ----- 398 ### d) The Allies had able and focussed political leaders like Lloyd George-the British Premier and Georges Clemenceau, the French Premier. e) Germans/axis powers made serious technical mistakes like invasion of the neutral Belgium by Germany which turned the world opinion against the central powers. f) Superior naval power of the Allies. The superiority of the British Royal Navy enabled the Allies to enforce a naval Blockade that caused severe food shortages among the central powers. g) Germany fought the war on many fronts. h) Germany was badly led down by her colleagues like Italy who decamped and Bulgaria and Austria-Hungary who had to be assisted all the time. Turkey on her part easily accepted defeat. i) The Allies had financial and industrial resources in Europe and in their colonies which were used to great advantage during the war. j) The Allies had powerful weapons e.g. they used Tankers, Aircraft and Battleships. k) The allies were united under the Command of General Foch which disadvantaged the central powers. German also used young and inexperienced soldiers after 1918 due to heavy causalities. l) The central powers were surrounded by the Allies as they lay in the centre of Europe. They also lacked an extensive coastline and thus were easily blockaded. **The Peace Treaties. ** In January 1918, Woodrow Wilson, President of the USA, outlined, in his speech to the congress, the fourteen points that were essential in maintenance of world peace. **Among these were three great principles that formed the basis of world peace ** **namely; ** 1. Self-determination of all peoples, i.e, the right of peoples all over the world to determine their own fate. 2. The need to make public all diplomatic and international agreements. 3. The need to establish a League of Nations which would provide an avenue for discussing all international problems, protect small states from aggression by large ones.In January 1919, statesmen from the 27 Allied powers converged at Paris, France to determine the fate of the defeated central powers. The central powers were not party to the discussions but were required to sign on the final . The Key personalities at the conference were; *a) Lloyd George( PM of Britain) * *b) George Clemenceau (PM of France) * *c) Woodrow Wilson (President of USA) * *d) Vittorio Orlando (PM of Italy) * Five treaties were signed with each of the central powers separately as follows; *a) The Treaty of Versailles with Germany (28 [th] June 1919) * *b) Treaty of St. Germaine with Austria (10 [th] September 1919) * ----- 399 ### *c) Treaty of Neuilly with Bulgaria (27 [th] November 1919) * *d) Treaty of Trianon with Hungary (4 [th] June 1920) * *e) Treaty of Sevres in 1920 and Lausanne in 1923 with Turkey. * **The Treaty of Versailles. ** It should be noted that all the above treaties were generally referred to as the Treaty of Versailles. **Terms of the Versailles Treaty of 1919. ** a) The treaty declared Germany an aggressor who was supposed to pay reparations and whose military capability was to be reduced. b) She lost all her colonial passions with the African colonies being taken from her and put under supervision of the League of Nations. c) The treaty of St. Germaine provided for the creation of Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Herzegovina and Malta as mandated territories. d) Germany was totally disarmed and only allowed to retain a force of 100,000 soldiers and her navy was disbanded. Military conscription was banned in Germany. e) Germanys population and size was reduced as Austria, with a large German population was allowed to remain independent. Italy acquired Stria, the Italianspeaking region of Austria. f) Rhineland was to be permanently demilitarized. Germany troops were not allowed in the region. h) By the treaty of Versailles, Germany lost the provinces of Alsace and Lorraine to France. i) The treaty established the League of Nation. **Failures of the treaty of Versailles. ** a) The treaty handed Germany a heavy punishment as if she was the only one to blame for World War 1. This provoked deep resentment and bitterness among the German nationals. b) The treaty ignored the interests of the colonial people. The former colonial possessions of Germany and turkey were handed over to France and Britain in total disregard to the African grievances during the Versailles conference c) The treaty failed to carter for the interests of the minority in Europe. The new republic of Austria was forbidden from merging with Germany though a national vote was for the merger. d) Italy was given a raw deal in the settlement. She was only given Stria, an Italian speaking region formerly belonging to Austria. e) Though the treaty proposal for the formation of the League of Nations came from the USA president Wilson, the US constitution prohibited commitment to such an organization, whose membership required a nation to help a future victim of aggression. ----- 400 ### **RESULTS OF WORLD WAR I ** a) Nationalist movements in Asia and Africa grew in strength and number after the war and a sense of patriotism arose. b) USA gained an upper hand in the post war European affairs. She emerged as a leading world power. c) German military capability was reduced on land and sea and heavy indemnity imposed on her. She lost all her colonies, which were made mandated territ ories of the League of Nations. d) The end of the war marked the beginning of the decline of western imperialism. As early as 1920, there was a possibility of independence for colonial countries. The war encouraged imperial powers to give more freedom to their subjects. e) The end of the war witnessed the creation of new states e.g. Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Finland. f) Germany and Italy fell in the hands of dictators e.g. Mussolini and Hitler. g) The war Created bitter feelings and mistrust among the countries that fought in the war. This continued until the outbreak of the Second World War. h) It led to the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 in Russia as radicals took over government there. i) It led to a change of government in Britain. j) There was greater use of motor vehicles and aircraft, which facilitated transport. k) The art of surgery improved. l) Between 1914 and 1918, European factories were destroyed and business brought down hence heavy losses. m) There was massive destruction of property and infrastructure. n) It led to the great depression 1920 to 1921, which affected economies worldwide. o) It led to increased taxation by he colonial authorities to meet war and post -war demands. **THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS ** **Origin and organization of the League of Nations. ** The League of Nations was established by the victors of the First World War in 1920 at the treaty of Versailles with the main aim of preventing the occurrence of another war. The idea of its formation was mooted by Woodrow Wilson, the US president who was supported by Lord Robert Cecil of Britain, Jan Smuts of South Africa and Leon Bourgeois of France.The League of Nation came into force during the first meeting in London Britain,on 10 [th] January 1920. **Reasons for the formation of the League of Nations in 1920. ** a) It was formed for the Maintenance of world peace / It was specifically created to prevent the outbreak of another world war b) The League of Nations was meant to foster international cooperation in solving problems as they arise. ----- 401 ### c) It was formed to jointly take instant action against an agreed aggressor by economic and possibly by military means. d) Members were to secure and maintain fair and humane conditions of labour as one way of maintaining peace in the world. e) It was formed to oversee development of territories lost to central powers during the First World War. E.g. Tanganyika, Togo, South West Africa etc. **The main organs of the League of Nations were; ** ***The Council. *** It was made up of permanent and Non-permanent members. The permanent members were France, Britain, Italy and Japan. Non permanent members were four, elected by the general assembly.The main role of the council which sat in Geneva was to appoint committees and secretary General with the approval of the majority of the Assembly. It also dealt with disputes amongst member states, reduction of armament, execution of arbitral awards and admittance and expulsion of members. ***The Assembly. *** It met once a year at Geneva and was comprised of three delegates from each member state. It elected non-permanent members to the council. The functions of the Assembly included; a) Control of the Budget of the organization (including contributions and expenditure). b) Admission of new members after approval of a two-thirds majority. c) Appointment of non-permanent members of the League of Nations Council. d) Consideration of treaties. e) Supervision of the work of the League of Nations council. f) Appointment of the 15 judges of the permanent Court of International Justice. g) Giving approval to the appointment of Secretary-General. ***The Secretariat. *** The Secretariat, based in Geneva, consisted of the secretary general and his staff. It was the administrative body of the League of Nations. It kept records of the organization and conducted correspondences including treaties by member states. It implemented the decisions of the League of Nations. It provided continuity between one meeting of the council or the assembly and the next, ***The International Court of Justice. *** Set up between 1920 and 1922, it comprised of eleven judges and four deputy judges elected for nine years by the assembly and the council. It was based at the HagueHolland. Decisions made by the court were binding on all parties in dispute. ----- 402 ### International Labour Organization.It consisted of 4 delegates- two for member states and two for workers from each member state. Its main aim was to maintain good working conditions for men, women and children. ***The Mandates Commission. *** It had then responsibility of supervising the administration of the trustee colonies. The League of Nations also had several specialized agencies. **Achievements of the League of Nations. ** a) The League of Nations, through the Permanent Court of International Justice, maintained international peace and security. E.g. in the city of Danzig in spite of the hostility between the poles and the Germans. b) The League of Nations achieved its objective of treating the minority with humane. The International Office for Refugees, for example, assisted refugees. Victims of the Nazi persecutions were also assisted. c) The league assisted in the administration of the trust territories, through the Mandates Commission. E.g. in Togo, Tanganyika Cameroon and Rwanda-urundi. In addition, the territories acquired from turkey. E.g. Iraq and Palestine. d) The league was able to solve several interstate disputes in a peaceful manner. E.g the frontier dispute between turkey and Iraq over the Mosul province (1924 -1926), the dispute between Poland and Germany over northern Silesia. e) The league successfully restored financial stability in Austria following the economic slump in the country after the World War 1. f) It successfully enforced control over the manufacture and sale of arms. It also held disarmament meetings. g) The league ensured signing of peace treaties to promote security in the world. For example, the Locarno treaties of 1925 that settled boundary disputes between Germany and France. **Failures of the League of Nations. ** The League of Nations failed its Prime objective of maintaining world peace in the following ways; a) It failed to solve the Sino-Japanese dispute after Japan invaded Manchuria in China in 1931. Japan after refusing to abide by the Leagues demands that it withdraws from the Chinese territory, even pulled out of the league in 1933. b) The Italian invasion of Ethiopia in 1935. Benito Mussolini, rather than accept the Leagues verdict that he withdraws Italian troops from Ethiopia, pulled out of the League. c) The League failed to stop German Violation of the terms of the Versailles Treaty. She embarked on a remilitarization programme and established a navy and an airbase. d) Nations continued to make many defensive pacts in total disregard of the Treaty of Versailles. e) Germany invaded other regions such as Poland and Austria between 1936 and ----- 403 ### 1939, while Russia invaded Finland in 1939 in violation of the League of Nations. **Factors that undermined the effectiveness of the League of Nations. ** a) Member countries were not willing to take disputes to the international court of justice. b) German was still determined to increase its military strength and continue with its aggression policy. c) Individual nations were more pre-occupied with national interests and pride, at the expense of the organizations interests. d) The Versailles peace settlement resolutions were too harsh to Germany thus leaving the Germans aggrieved and refuse to cooperate with the League of Nations. e) The League of Nations lacked the executive authority to implement its resolutions. f) USA congress refused to ratify the treaty of the League of Nations. This denied the organization diplomatic and economic strength. g) There was shortage of funds to implement the functions of the League of Nations. h) The Appeasement Policy of Britain and France forced them to stand aside and avoid taking a firm action against Japan when she invaded china, Germany when she invaded and occupied Rhineland, and Italy when she attacked Ethiopia. **The Second World War. ** The 1930s witnessed the rise of dictators in Europe like Adolf Hitler of Germany, Benito Mussolini of Italy and General Francisco Franco of Spain who intentionally defied international opinion and disregarded the Versailles Treaty and League of Nations. Their activities and those of Japan began to interfere with prevailing peace in the world. This happened at the time when USA had retreated into isolation leaving the task of maintaining world peace only to Britain and France.The Second World War involved most countries in the world with millions of people conscripted for service in both the military and war related industries. **Causes of the Second World War. ** ***a) Germanys dissatisfaction based on territorial grievances. *** The Versailles treaty of 1919 imposed harsh and humiliating conditions on Germany, which aggrieved the Germans to the level of being ready to go to war again. ***b) The rise of nationalism in Europe. *** In Germany, the chancellor, Adolf Hitler who had the desire to dominate the whole world, fuelled it. For example, he encouraged German speakers in Sudetenland, Czechoslovakia to demand independence from Czechoslovakia. Italy under Mussolini invaded Ethiopia, in 1939 to regain her lost glory and national pride after the Adowa defeat I 1896. Syria rose up against France. ***c) Political developments in Europe. *** In Italy in 1922, the fascist government under Benito Mussolini came to power. In ----- 404 ### Germany, Hitlers Nazi government assumed power in 1933. The Fascist government in Italy emphasized on the regaining of lost glory. The Nazi government began a fresh new policy of aggression. ***d) The economic problems caused by the great depression of 1929 to 1931. *** The great slump led to widespread unemployment, declining wages, poverty etc. these led to social discontent and political unrest in many countries of the world. ***e) The failure of Germany to pay reparations. *** This was followed by the French invasion of the Ruhr industrial region- a German territory. This led to increased tension. ***f) Weakening of the League of Nations. *** Japan left the League of Nations after protest over Manchuria, which she had grabbed, from china. Italy left the League of Nations after Mussolini had grabbed Abyssinia and annexed it against the will of the allies and Ethiopians. Russia invaded Finland in 1939 and the league was unable to intervene. There were many secret treaties among members of the league. ***g) The Spanish civil war (1936-1939). *** The republican revolution of 1931 ended the Spanish monarchy. The struggle between the royalists and socialists, however, continued. The European powers took sides in the civil war. France, Britain and Russia supported the royalists. Germany and Italy supported General Franco who was fighting from exile in Morocco. ***h) Growth of military alliances. *** Hitler and Mussolini established a military pact in 1936 (The Berlin-Rome Axis). it became the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis with the joining of Italy. The alliance between Russia and German to divide Poland widened the gap between them and the allied forces. It created fear and suspicion. ***i) The invasion of Poland by Germany. *** This happened in September 1939 was the immediate cause of the war. This upset Britain and France, who stated their intensions of assisting Poland. They declared war on Germany in October 1939. ***COURSE OF WORLD WAR 2 *** The invasion of Poland by German forces on 1 [St] of September 1939 and the subsequent declaration of war against Germany by Britain and France on 3 [rd] of September 1939 marked the beginning of the Second World War. Meanwhile on 17 th September 1939, the USSR attacked Poland from the East, as per the secret clause in the Nazi -Soviet act of August 1939. Poland had been overrun by German and Russian forces by 27 th September 1939. The country was divided between Russia and Germany. **The phoney war. ** This was a period during world war two when no major military operations were undertaken on the western front although war had been declared on Germany by ----- 405 ### France and Britain. The period lasted eight months from 3 [rd] of September 1939. It was used by the Allied countries to fully mobilise their forces for an attack on Germany since they had not initially been prepared. Hitler on his part did not want to be involved in war in the west since his armies had not fully recovered from the consequents in the east. During this period, two unsuccessful attempts were made to bring peace; a) On 6 [th] October 1939, Hitler and Stalin of Russia made an attempt to convince the to accept the Nazi Occupation of Poland and make peace. b) On 7 [th] October, King Leopold of Belgium and Queen Wilhelmina of Netherlands appealed to the Axis powers and the Western Allies to make peace. War in Western Europe.On 9 [th] April 1940, Hitler launched a sea-borne invasion against Norway after attacking Denmark via land. They were assisted by a Norwegian Nazi sympathiser Vidkund Quisling. The prime minister of Norway and his Ministers fled to London and Hitler established a puppet government in the country. The defeat of British and French forces in Norway sparked off a parliamentary revolution in Britain forcing the PM Neville Chamberlain to resign to be replaced by Sir Winston Churchill. Germany extended their attack on Luxembourg, Netherlands and Belgium. The Allies were unable to contain the German advance and even retreated to the French port of Dunkirk, marking a major defeat of the allies in Europe.On 14 [th] June 1940, the Germans captured Paris forcing the new Prime Minister Paul Reynaud to sue for peace with Hitler on 22 [nd] June 1940. Under the peace agreement, The Germans took over Alsace Lorraine, Northern France and the Atlantic coastline. the French government fled to Vichy, southern France. **Why the French were defeated so quickly. ** a) The French forces were not psychologically prepared for the war and thus were found divided. b) The French forces were not as well organized as the Germans thus exposing various military weaknesses. For example, the Germans were supported by combat planes which the French did not use. c) Poor communication between the army and the airforce. The French generals failed to coordinate the war properly to the extend of ignoring the fact that the Airforce could have been used to drive German Bombers off. Having succeeded in their Paris onslaught, the Germans attacked Britain in July 1940. However, Winston Churchill, the British Premier, had mobilized forces to resist this attack successfully he even obtained reinforcement from USA. The battle of Britain determined the future of World War II. It forced Hitler to delay his attacks. **War in North Africa. ** WWII in Africa was marked by the Italian successful attack on French and British Somaliland. Under Marshal Graziani, the Italian forces advanced to Egypt though unsuccessful. In June1942, German forces moved to North Africa to reinforce the ----- 406 ### Italians.However, British forces led by General Bernard Montgomery moved quickly and captured Malta which would have been used as a base for attack by the Germans. General Montgomery attacked the Germans at El Alamein in Egypt, forcing them to move to west. On 8thNovember 1942, British and American forces invaded Morocco and Algeria.Although the Germans continued fighting in Tunisia, by May 1943, their Army under General Rommel had surrendered. **War in the Balkans. ** In August 1940, Hitler Attacked and captured Romania and Bulgaria. In April 1941, Yugoslavia and Greece were taken. Crete was taken in May 1941.On 22 [nd] June 1941, Hitler attacked USSR forcing the Russian troops to retreat. However, he failed to capture Moscow before the onset of winter. In June 1942, the Germans resumed their offensive. They were finally defeated at the battle of Stalingrad on 31 [st] January 1943 by the Russian Red Army led by Marshal Zhukov. The Germans lost 300,000 men while 100,000 survivors surrendered. By May 1944, the Russians had pushed the Germans from their territory and were approaching Germany itself. **Why the Germans were defeated during the Russian Invasion. ** a) The Germany army was fighting in several fronts at the same time as compared to the allies. This lack of concentration in one area allowed the other Russian army to defeat them. b) The soviet forces employed the scorched earth policy which left very little for the German forces. c) The Germans ill-treated the soviet people and exploited their economic resources causing resentment and unity to fight with determination. d) Weak leadership by the German military leaders contributed to their defeat. **USA entry into World War I. ** The Japanese attack on the American great Naval Base at Pearl Harbour on the Hawaiian island is the one incident that dragged USA into WWII.On 8 [th] December 1941, the USA, Britain and the Netherlands declared war on Japan. The Germans and Italians also declared war on the USA. Russia kept off the war in Asia having signed a treaty with Japan.Japan resisted fiercely. Her airforce sank two British battleships on 10 [th] December 1941.She captured Hong Kong, Malaya in Malaysia and took over the great naval base at Singapore. She also occupied Burma, Dutch East Indies, the Philippines and parts of the western pacific islands.The Japanese forces were repulsed while on their way to Port Moresby, New Guinea in may 1942.In 1942, Britain used her bases in India to attack Japan. Japan attacked India in 1944, but the strong and large allied forces defeated the Japanese at the battle of Kohima. **The defeat of Germany. ** After 1942, the tide of success began to turn against Hitler. German forces were defeated by the allies in North Africa and France. By March 1945, the Allies had crossed the Rhine, pushed the Germans out of France in June 1944.The Germans were meanwhile ----- 407 ### facing the Russian attack from the East. Hitler accepted defeated and handed over power to one of the Military Generals to retreat to an underground Bunker in Berlin.On 29 [th] April 1945, Hitler married his long term Mistress Eva Braun. On the following day, he committed suicide by shooting himself while Eva Braun took Poison. On 7 [th] May 1945, the Germans surrendered unconditionally **Why the Germans were defeated. ** a) Germany had acquired far too many territories and she was unable to effectively control them. b) The USSR recovered from her losses and began to rearm in a bid to fight against Germany. c) The USA entry into the war in 1941 on the side of the allies contributed to the eventual defeat of the Germans. d) Germanys Axis powers were only four, fighting against more than 27 allies. Even among the Germany collaborators, Italy surrendered while Bulgaria and Romania also were a burden to the Germans. **The defeat of Japan. ** After Germany surrender, Japan continued with fierce fighting sometimes employing the services of suicide bombers known as Kamikaze. The allies were able to liberate the territories captured by Japan After the defeat at Okinawa, Japan was certain of defeat, but her PM, Admiral Suzuki Kantaro, did not believe in unconditional defeat. On 6 [th] August 1945, a bomber Aeroplane, Enola Gay, commanded by Colonel Paul Tibbets, flew over Hiroshima dropping a 4535.15kg atomic bomb. About 78,000 people died. On 8 [th] August 1945, Russia attacked Japan. On 9 [th] August 1945, an even larger Bomb was dropped on Nagasaki killing more than 40,000 people. Japan surrendered unconditionally on 15 [th] August 1945 bringing WWII to an end. **Factors that enabled the allied powers to win the Second World War. ** a) Allies had more wealth in terms of food, raw materials and equipments. b) Allies controlled the North Sea, which ensured safe transportation of troops and equipment.

A number of conferences have been held since then; ----- 419 ### a) The first summit, Belgrade, 1961. The attendance was by 25 non-aligned countries who met at a time when world peace was threatened seriously by the looming nuclear war. The meetings objective was to prevent the outbreak of a nuclear war in the world. b) The second summit, Cairo, 1964. The summit of October 1964 was attended by 47 Nations and 10 observers. There were 28 representatives from Africa. The conference mainly focused on problems facing NAM countries due to colonial inheritance, policies of former colonial powers and the rivalry between the great powers.. c) The third summit, Lusaka, 1970. The attendance was by 53 members the meeting resolved that time was ripe for declaration on peace, independence, cooperation and democratization. The members were out to fight colonialism and racism. The main resolution was the members determination to achieve economic emancipation. d) The Fourth Summit, Algiers, 1973. It was attended by 75 members, eight observers, three guest nations and 15 liberation movements. The meeting was an attempt to transform the existing system of economic and financial relations in a manner that would liberate developing countries from a subordinate role into an equal position with industrialized countries. The members developed an action programme in the interest of economic cooperation. e) The fifth Summit, Colombo, 1976. It was attended by 86 members, who focused on the liberation of Zimbabwe and Namibia, the abolition of apartheid in South Africa as a way of promoting world peace. f) The sixth Summit, Havana, 1979. The conference was attended by 93 members, 12 observers, 8 guest nations and seven new members. The meeting declared that imperialism, colonialism, neo-colonialism, apartheid, racism, foreign aggression, expansion, occupation, domination, interference or hegemony, Great power bloc, Subjugation, dependency and pressures in international relations as enemies of nonalignment. The chairman of the summit was Fidel Castro who put forth his ideas that the socialist bloc is a natural ally of the movement. g) The seventh summit, New Delhi, 1983. It was attended by 96 members, 16 observers and 20 guest nations. The summit took place at a time when there was intense confrontation as the great powers continued to amass nuclear weapons. . Indra Gandhi appeared to be the moderate leader to host the conference and soften the impact of Cuban radicalism. The conference discussed peace, nuclear disarmament, development strategies for north-south Dialogue on a new world economic order, and the south-south cooperation for collective self-reliance. h) The eighth summit, Harare, 1986. It marked NAMs silver Jubilee. The main concern was Namibias independence and apartheid in south Africa.. NAM emphasized its sanctions against the Pretoria (South Africa) regime. It drew an action plan to deal with ----- 420 ### the threat posed by South Africa. The summit came up with a special solidarity fund to help the frontline states. i) The Ninth summit, Belgrade, 1989. j) The tenth Summit, Jakarta, 1992. k) The eleventh Summit, Cartagena de Indias, 1995. l) The twelfth Summit, Durban 1998. m) The thirteenth Summit, Kuala Lumpar, 2003. **Performance of the Non-Aligned Movement. ** Though critics have questioned the relevance of NAM after dismantling apartheid and achieving independence, and after end of cold war, there still exist situations that require NAMs participation. **Reasons why NAM is still relevant. ** a) NAM is the only forum that can articulate the voice of justice and sanity in the world in view of the unending Arms Race. b) NAM is the only forum through which the demand for a less unjust world economic order can be raised given the kind of hold the developed nations still have on developing nations. c) NAM remains the third worlds shield against the pressures of the superpower elephants that can easily trample on the grass of the lesser animals even after end of cold war. d) NAM can still play a role in addressing emerging world issues such as terrorism, environmental degradation, HIV/AIDS and racism. **Achievements of NAM. ** a) It has helped speed up the attainment of freedom in states that were under colonial bondage. b) NAM has assisted its members in safeguarding their national security and territorial integrity. c) Nan-aligned nations also worked to eliminate conflict between the superpowers. This helped in the promotion of peace and security for the non-aligned world. India for example played a role in solving the Korean War, the Suez crisis and IndoChinese conflict. d) NAM created a conducive environment for peace, justice, equality and international cooperation by contributing to the relaxation of international tension by keeping clear of the two military blocs, USA and USSR. e) The movement has strengthened African and Asian Countries diplomatically at a time when they lacked necessary physical strength. They were able to exert their voting power as Afro-Asian bloc to influence world affairs. f) NAM provided an international forum where members voices could be heard. It was able to work to dismantle apartheid by its two-third world community membership despite the Reagan administrations opposition to sanctions against South Africa. ----- 421 ### g) The movement has given members freedom to put their national interests before those of the great power blocs. h) The NAM through the Cairo and Colombo Summits termed as World Disarmament conferences, played a key role in the disarmament process. The 1967 Treaty of Tlatelolco, signed by 22 states, set up a weapon Free Zone in Latin America. i) The Non-aligned states have helped in international crisis management since they are not committed to any course of military action. For example during the 1961 Berlin crisis, Nehru of India and Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana went to Moscow for a peace mission, while Achmad Sukarno of Indonesia and Modibo Keita of Mali went to Washington DC to try and create a conducive atmosphere for managing the crisis. j) NAM has worked towards creation of new international economic order. Members of the movement are able to trade with both the great power blocs. Membership to the Group of 77 in the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) is drawn from the non-aligned nations. The non-aligned nations were open to aid from both blocs and also ready to expand their trade with both sides of the ideological divide. k) The Solidarity fund established during the Harare Summit of 1986 cushioned the frontline states against the economic sanctions imposed on apartheid South Africa. l) NAM has worked to create the new scientific and technological order. The members have demanded a new scientific and technological order by favouring access to the most advanced technology and scientific research available as a means of bridging the technological gap between the developed countries and developing ones. **Factors which have undermined the activities of the Non-Aligned Movement. ** a) Political instability is frequently experienced by some member states. For example, civil wars and military coups in DRC, the Sudan, Rwanda, Burundi, interstate wars like in the case of Iran and Irag. This has undermined their contribution to the movement. b) Economic ties between the third world countries and their colonial masters had made it difficult for the member states to pursue an independent line. c) Border disputes between neighboring member countries has weakened the course of the movement. E.g. between morocco and Algeria, North Korea and South Korea, Vietnam and Cambodia, Ethiopia and Somalia, Uganda and Tanzania etc. d) Economic backwardness of some of the member states has made it difficult for them to meet their obligation in the movement as national needs come first in view of the meager resources of some of the nations. e) Ideological differences between member states have undermined their co operation. Its large size of 116 members by 2004 has frustrated its ideological coherence and organizational solidarity. Whereas some countries are inclined towards the west, others are inclined to the east. f) Membership to other organizations like AU, commonwealth and the French ----- 422 ### community, has made it difficult for some states to participate actively in the affairs of the movement. g) Breakup of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War has destabilized the movement. As power bloc rivalry subsided, NAM appeared to become irrelevant. h) Conflicting national interests. Individual national interests have failed to agree with the objectives of the movement. i) Personality differences between leaders of member states have undermined the . For example, several leaders rejected the radical views of Fidel Catron of Cuba. j) Differences unrelated to the principles of NAM have developed among members. For example at the Colombo Summit of 1978, several Arab states were keen to see Egypt expelled from the movement on grounds that she had signed a separate peace treaty with Israel. This was not an agreement with a superpower and therefore had nothing to do with NAM. k) NAM lacks a permanent Army or a permanent institutional framework or machinery that can enable it carry out its activities effectively. For example, it fai led to persuade irag and Iran to end the 8 year long war from 1980. **THE COLD WAR. ** The Cold War refers to the strained relations that existed between the western world led principally by the United States and the communist East led by the USSR, after the Second World War. It was so called because it was fought not with weapons, but with words, propaganda, military and financial aid to enemies of the opposing sides. Although there was no actual physical confrontation, Cold War was characterized by a conflict of the most serious and deadly kind. **Causes of the Cold War. ** a) Ideological differences. There was deep-seated fear and mutual suspicion between USA and USSR over the spread of their ideologiescapitalism and communism. E.g The establishment of the Soviet Union through acquisition of satellite states was a measure to contain capitalism. b) Disagreement over the issue of disarmament. The use of atomic bomb on Japan by USA towards the end of World War II alarmed USSR. The two sides failed to agree on an arms reduction plan and continued to stockpile atomic bombs. c) Economic rivalry. In 1947, the USA President Harry S. Truman introduced the Marshal Plan, a scheme to assist western European countries that had been devastated by war. The USSR in turn formed Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (COMECON), an economic cooperative plan for Eastern Europe. This further heightened the hostility between the west and the east. d) Formation of military alliances. In April 1949, the USA, western European countries and Canada formed a military alliance through the signing of the North Atlantic Treaty in Washington D.C. (NATO). The formation of NATO ended USAs isolationist policy. ----- 423 ### Russians responded by signing the Warsaw Pact, in May 1955, a military alliance of communist countries. These alliances fostered hostility between countries. e) The use of Russian veto powers in the UN. Russia used her veto powers to defeat UN proposals, which she accused of being pro-USA. The struggle by the two powers to dominate the UN increased tension between them. f) Disagreement over the future of Germany as a whole. Western allies wanted a strong Germany to assist in the economic prosperity of other nations. Russia was keen on a politically and economically weak Germany to safeguard against another invasion. NB- in 1961, the USSR built the Berlin Wall, thus dividing East Berlin from West Berlin. g) USAs military advancement. By 1945, the USA was the only country that possessed atomic weapons. This created fear. **COURSE OF THE COLD WAR. ** The cold war was fought in Europe Asia, Latin America and Africa, **The course of the Cold War in Europe ** The cold war in Europe involved a conflict between the West and the East. The highlights of this conflict included Russias overwhelming encroachment and dominance of Eastern Europe. Russia used her military might to impose communist governments on many states like Poland and Romania. They also fanned civil wars. E.g the Greek civil war of 1946. There were widespread outbreaks of violence and demands of freedoms in Poland and Romania, based on western ideologies, in politics and economy.In Czechoslovakia, communist Russia orchestrated protests against reforms based on western ideologies, by the Dubcek Government, which was supported by the west. Dubcek was arrested and flown to Moscow. Dr. Husak, a Russian ally was installed. **The following are the major developments that characterized cold war in Europe. ** a) In March 1947, the US president Harry Truman, through The Truman Doctrine declared that the USA would support free people resisting subjugation by armed minorities. In 1947, USA took over Britains commitment in Greece and turkey to support the anti-communist regimes. b) In 1947, the US Secretary of state, George Marshall came up with a proposal which was to become the Marshall Plan. This was a plan through which the US would make a major contribution to the economic recovery of Europe. The plan was rejected by USSR terming it an American interference in the internal affairs of other nations. c) Stalin set up the Communist Information Bureau (COMINFORM) to coordinate the work of communist parties in Europe and the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (COMECON) to counter the US Marshal Plan. d) The NATO and Warsaw Pact. By the treaty of Brussels in March 1948, Britain, France, Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg formed a defensive alliance against ----- 424 ### any form of aggression (It became the North Atlantic Treaty Organization-NATO, in April 1949 when other European Nations joined it. In response to NATO, the Soviet Union signed the Warsaw Pact in Poland on 14 [th] May 1955 with East \\Germany and six Eastern European countries. The existence of NATO and Warsaw Pact only intensified the hostilities. e) The Berlin Blockade. Germany was divided into two zones, East and West. Russia treated East Germany as a satellite state thus curtailing trade between east and west. This move almost led to starvation in the west as East Germany was the main producer. In May 1948, all roads and rail routes into West Berlin were sealed off by Russian troops. For over two years, food, coal medical supplies and other necessities to the 2 million people in West Berlin were airlifted since there was no land linkage. The blockade ended in may 1949 with diverstating consequences. f) Partition of Germany. The west was prepared to give freedom to the Germans as a whole to decide their own fate. Russia was determined to ensure that East Germany remained dominated by communism under Russian control. On 23 [rd] may 1949, the western occupation zone in Germany became the Federal Republic of Germany with Konrad Adenauer as the chancellor in September elections. On 7 [th] October 1949, the soviet zone formed the Germany Democratic Republic.In August 1961, the East Germans built the Berlin Wall, curtailing communication and flow of refugees from the west. **The cold war was fought in Asia. ** In Asia, China was the first front of Cold War. She embraced communism, following the successful takeover of the country by the forces of Mao Tse-tung in October 1949, assisted by the Russians. The Sino-Soviet Treaty of friendship was signed in 1950. Korea, formerly controlled by Japan, was another front for cold war in Asia. When Japan was defeated in 1945, Korea was occupied from the south by American forces, from the north by Russians, placing the country under joint control. The occupying powers failed to unite the two Korea sections when she became independent.In 1948, the USA announced the formation of the Independent Democratic Republic of Korea in the South. The Russians formed the Peoples Republic of Korea in the north.On 25 [th] June 1950, North Korea Forces invaded South Korea in an attempt to unite. UN condemned this and An American General, Douglas MacArthur led the UN forced that repulsed the invaders. The cold war spread to Vietnam, with USSR and USA clashing over Vietnam, formerly a colony of France that had been seized by Japan. The two super powers supported different nationalist leaders in the struggle for independence from France.The Russians supported Ho Chi-Minh who led a revolt by the Vietnamese, against the French. USA supported Ngo Dinh Diem. The Vietnam War erupted as a resultThe Vietnam War was the heaviest cost of containing communism by Americans in a distant country. Americans were humiliatingly defeated in 1975 with a causality of 53,000, despite employing over ----- 425 ### 400,000 troops. The communist guerillas, the Viet Cong, established a communist government in South Vietnam. The war strengthened American hostility towards Russia There was an armed conflict between the super powers in Afghanistan from 1978. The height of the conflict in Afghanistan was the Boycott of the Moscow Olympic Games in 1980 as a protest against USSRs involvement in Afghanistan. The conflict took the form of a civil war which was only eased in 1989 when the USSR began to withdraw its troops. **The cold war in Latin America (the Cuban Missile Crisis) ** Cuba became the theatre of cold war when USA unsuccessfully supported the Cuban dictator, General Fulgencio Batista against Fidel Castro who was fighting to end Batistas regime. Fidel Castro overthrew the Batista regime in 1958. The new government immediately gained recognition from many world nations including USA and USSR In 1960, Fidel began a communist nationalization programme of American oil refineries and sugar plantations. This strained relations between him and the US who attempted unsuccessfully to invade Cuba in 1961 at Bay of Pigs. In January 1962, Cuba was expelled from the Organization of American States.In May 1962, USSR leader Nikita Khrushchev secretly built missile installations in Cuba as a means of countering any future American invasion, in exchange for sugar. The discovery, by American president J. F. Kennedy in October 1962, of the Russian missile installations in Cuba was the beginning of the most serious cold war crisis. He declared that any nuclear missile attack from Cuba would be taken to be an attack by the USSR and USA would respond accordingly.USA declared a Naval Quarantine on Cuba to blockade any Russian Vessels This most serious cold war crisis was only ended when the Russian leader Khrushchev removed the missiles from Cuba and dismantled Russias bases in Cuba. **The Cold War in Africa. ** The cold war in Africa was majorly witnessed in Ethiopia and Angola. In Ethiopia, Mengistu Haile Mariam, overthrew Emperor Haile Selassie in 1974, with the assistance of USSR. Haile Mariam introduced socialist programmes, However, they were short-lived up to the end of his rule in May 1991, when Russians withdrew their assistance.In Angola, on 11 [th] November 1975, Angola attained her independence from Portugal, with the assistance of the Soviet Union and Cuba.Soon after, a bruising civil war broke out. USA supported the rebels, led by Jonas Savimbi and his UNITA movement based in Ovimbudu. Cuba and Russia supported the MPLA government based in Luanda. Democratic elections were held in Angola in 1989, when USSR eased their aid to MPLA. **FACTORS that led to the Cold War dtente by world powers. ** a) The death of Stalin and the flexibility of Stalins successor, Nikita Khrushchev. The successor of Joseph Stalin, after his death in 1953, Nikita Khrushchev, was more flexible and willing to relax both cold war abroad and Authoritarianism at home. He announced the policy of peaceful coexistence in 1956. ----- 426 ### b) The willingness of David Dwight Eisenhower, Trumans successor, to reach compromise with the Soviet Union over a number of issues. For example he convened the Camp David Summit in 1959, with Khrushchev in which a cooperative spirit emerged between the east and the west. However this happened against the backdrop of the Cuban missile crisis. c) The signing of the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty (The SALT Treaty) in 1972. The treaty, signed between USA and Russia limited strategic arms to certain quantities. This was followed by the Improvement of the Chinese American relations in 1972 and American relations with Russia. In 1972. President Nixon visited Beijing and Moscow d) The introduction of reforms in Russia by Mikhail Gorbachev. In 1985, Gorbachev introduced the Glasnost (openness policy) and the perestroika reforms (economic restructuring that appealed favourably to the west) which won him the Nobel peace Prize in 1990. e) The adoption of President Reagans Strategic Defence Initiative (SDI) in 1983. This initiative led to setting up of space stations that would destroy every missile in the sky. This was Star Wars. f) The collapse of the Communist rule in Europe. Russias president recognized the independence of other republics of USSR in 1989 thus weakening Russias position. Western democracy was introduced in Romania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia and Poland. g) The successful re-unification of Germany under Helmut Kohl in 1990. The nations united to form the republic of Germany. This was a clear indicator of the joint commitment of the superpowers in maintaining their spheres of influence had been weakened. h) The dissolution of the Warsaw Pact. With the fall of communism in Eastern Europe, the Warsaw pact started to fall apart. In November 1990, the Paris Charter was signed, effectively dissolving the Warsaw Pact. i) The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990. Several of its states seceded. Russia officially became an aid receiver instead of an aid donor. j) The signing of the START Treaty in 1991 by Gorbachev and George Bush, after the Strategic Arms Reduction Talks. The treaty officially ended the cold war. Destruction of weapons of mass destruction commenced. **Effects of the cold war ** a. It brought immense divisions and conflict to people of the same continent, region and countries based on pro-west or pro-east ideologies. E.g. in Angola b. Oppressive regimes found their way to power, supported by either the west or the east. c. There was untold suffering to the people. Disease, poverty and refugee camps became common sights. ----- 427 ### d. There was destruction of the economy as infrastructure was destroyed by war. As communist systems failed to produce wealth, unemployment and poverty set in. e. It created mistrust and suspicion amongst nations. f. It led to arms race. It led to militarization of regions and countries. g. It led to political crises and actual war e.g. civil wars in Korea and Vietnam, the Suez Canal crisis of 1956 and the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. h. It threatened international peace and security. Insecurity in the world increased. i. Led to formation of Non-Aligned Movement by third world countries. j. Led to formation of economic alliances and military alliances like NATO (1949) and the Warsaw pact (1955). COMECON (1949) and the European Economic Union (1957. k. The cold war led to development in science and technology. The war Stimulated space science/space race. **Effects of the end of Cold War on Africa. ** a) Some African countries that were formerly socialist are in problems following collapse of USSR in 1990. E.g. Somalia, Ethiopia, Angola and Mozambique. b) The end of the cold war has led to the removal of financial aid and military support for some African countries. Military or food aid is no longer rushed to countries experiencing problems because there is no more superpower competition. E.g failure to prevent the Rwanda genocide and failure to assist in the Somali crisis and the current Al- shabaab crisis. c) There was emergence of new world political and economic order. The end of war has led to emergence of USA as a world policeman over developing nations. The countries must act according to USA wishes or suffer lack of aid and receive harassment from superpowers. d) It has led to marginalization of Africa in international affairs. e) There are conditionalties for getting aid from the western powers. Besides, Africa no longer has a choice of donors who comprise mainly of western world countries. COOPERATION IN AFRICA Cooperation in Africa refers to the way African countries relate to each other. It is stimulated by the economic exploitation and political domination by Western Eu rope. The cooperation has been in form of; a) Pan-African Movement b) Organization of African Unity (African Union) c) The East African Community d) Economic Community of Western African States. e) Common Markets for Eastern and Southern Africa. ----- 428 ### **PAN-AFRICANISM. ** **Meaning of Pan-Africanism. ** Pan means all and Africa refers to the continent. Africanism refers to those of African Origin.Pan-Africanism is a belief in the uniqueness and spiritual Unity of Black people acknowledging their right to self determination.It is a movement aimed at unifying all the people of African descent in the world. It stands for economic, political and social advancement for all peoples of African descent throughout the world. **Origin and Development of pan-Africanism. ** The movement has roots in the trans-Atlantic slave trade that took place between 15 [th] and 19 [th] c. the trade was responsible for the dispersal of black people all over the world. The suffering the slaves underwent made them become conscious of their colour and origin. The Africans viewed themselves as having a common destiny. Even those who remained in Africa were later subjected to the colonial experience including forced labour, land alienation, taxation, poor wages, discrimination corporal punishment rape and murder.The movement first started as the Pan Black Movement for the American and Caribbean black only. Several African Americans wanted to uplift the lives of fellow Africans in USA and in Africa. They included Martin Delaney, Alexander Cromwell, Bishop James Johnson, Wilmot Blyden and Bishop Turner. The leading pan -Africanists in America were Booker T Washington, Marcus Moziah Garvey, Dr. William Edward Burghardt Du Bois and George Padmore.The pioneer African pan-Africanists included Kwegyir Aggrey from Gold Coast, Wilmot Blyden from Liberia, Kwame Nkrumah from Ghana and Leopold Sedar Senghor.The Pan Black Movements enlisted all blacks worldwide. It sometimes was called Pan Negro Movement and was pitted against the evils of racism.Pan Black Movement gave birth to Pan-African Movement, which had its first meeting in London in 1900 attended by 32 delegates, drawn from USA, Africa, Canada, West Indies and Britain.Sylvester Williams, a lawyer from Trinidad, coined the term Pan-Africanism. By 1920, an all-African idea had been developed.The first pan- African congress for Africans was held in Manchester England in 1945, also attended by Jomo Kenyatta. **Causes of pan-Africanism. ** a) The Trans-Atlantic slave trade. It took place between 15 [th] and 18th centuries. Africans who were forced into slavery in America during this period suffered a lot under the white people. The Africans in Diaspora, through humiliation and sadness realized they had a common destiny. b) Colonization of Africa . The division of Africa into 50 colonies separated some communities. It also put together various people of different history and culture. The divide and rule tactics of colonialists brought deep divisions among same communities. The Africans realized later on that there was need to find a common ground to bring about change. ----- 429 ### **c) The need to correct the negative ideas about Africa and Africans held by ** **Europeans. ** The whites held a popular belief that Africans belonged to an inferior race without ability to run their own affairs. d ) Pan-Africanism was a fight against Racism-Africans were despised and ridiculed on the ground of colour and hair texture. e) The evolution of leadership cadre of educated class of Africans- leaders like Kwame Nkrumah, Sedar Senghor, Jomo Kenyatta and Blyden wanted to prove that Africans were a civilized people with a rich history and culture. f) European missionaries had discriminated against the Africans /Africans formed **. ** independent churches contributing to the rise of Pan -Africanism **Objectives of the Pan-African movement ** a) To unite all the peoples of African origin in the struggle for emancipation from social discrimination and colonial rule. b) To challenge the ideology of white supremacy on which European colonization was based. c) To improve the African living conditions in the Diaspora and in the African continent. d) To secure democratic rights for all African peoples e.g. right to vote. Form political associations etc. e) To restore the dignity of the black people and liberate them from the bondage of slavery. f) To create a forum through which protests against European colonization and racial discrimination could be channeled. g) To find better ways of establishing better relations between the Europeans and Africans on the one hand and among Africans on the other hand. h) To appeal to missions and humanitarians to protect Africans against colonial aggression and exploitation as well as land alienation. i) To fight neo-colonialism **LEADING PAN-AFRICANISTS. ** **1. Marcus Garvey (1887-1940) ** He was born on 17 [th] August 1887 in the West Indies island of Jamaica to a family offreed slaves. The fact that Marcus was very dark is what shaped his philosophy of Pan Africanism. While a young man, he witnessed great European and Mullato discrimination on account of his complexion.He arrived in USA in 1916 after widely travelling in south and Central America and Britain. While in England, he was greatly encouraged by Mohammed Duse to lead the peoples of African descent all over the world in the struggle for liberation.He developed the Pan-African philosophy in USA through which he sought to make Africans take pride in their blackness and cultural heritage. He founded the Negro Empire in New York in 1920. He organized a black convention in 1924 in New ----- 430 ### York during which he launched the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) whose HQs were to be at Harlem, New York. UNIA had the following objectives; ~ To create universal fraternity among the Black Race. ~ To assist uplift the civilization of African communities. ~ To establish a central nation for the black race. ~ To establish academies for African children. ~ To promote African cultures. Garvey founded a Journal The Negro World and the African Orthodox Church under a black Patriarch or chief Bishop and a Black Madonna as the symbol of his church. He advocated for the return to Africa by the Africans. To Garvey, freedom was to be gained through economic empowerment of Africans. To this end, he mobilized African Americans to contribute funds to establish black businesses like the Black Starline Shopping Company. The project however collapsed due to mismanagement. He was arrested, tried and convicted of fraud (collecting funds unlawfully) and imprisoned for five years. He was deported to his home country Jamaica after two years in Jail where he died in 1940.He is credited for succeeding in mobilizing Africans to take pride in their cultures and complexion. **2. Booker T. Washington.(1856-1915) ** He was born in 1856 in USA to a poor slave family. He acquired a university degree in Agriculture at Hampton Institute.He is credited for promoting African Education. He started a model institute for training blacks in agricultural and industrial skills (the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama).Unfortunately, Washington adopted a policy of cooperation with the government as a means of winning acceptance by the European community. To him, Africans ought to gain wealth in order to attain equal status with Europeans and end racial discrimination.He began the National Negro Business League with the help of a European Andrew Carnegie.He died in 1915. **3. Dr. William Edward Burghardt Du Bois. ** He was born in great Barrington, Massachusetts, USA on 23 [rd] February 1868. He was the first black to receive a PHD Degree and become a professor of History, Economics and Sociology. He was also a renowned journalist.He greatly disagreed with Booker T. Washingtons policy of accommodation and cooperation. In 1905, he established the Niagara Movement to protest against racial discrimination. In 1900, he was one of the founder members of the National Association for the advancement of Coloured Peoples (NAACP) an association that championed for the struggle for Negroes civil rights in America.He prepared the pan-African conferences that were held between 1900 and 1945 to fight against slavery, colonial exploitation and repression of Af rican peoples. He was the chairman of the Manchester Conference of 1945..In 1961, he relocated to Ghana where he became a citizen, on invitation of Nkrumah. He died in 1963 in Ghana. **THE PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESSES (1900-1945) ** a) The 1 [st] pan-African conference, London, 1900. It was held at the Westminster ----- 431 ### Townhall from 23 [rd] to 25 [th] July with 32 participants from Africa, USA, Canada and West Indies. The conference was sponsored by a Trinidad lawyer Henry Sylvester Williams who coined the term Pan-Africanism. The conference marked the entry of Du Bois into Pan Africanism where he made his famous statement The problem of the 20 [th] c is the problem of colourline. **Objectives of the conference. ** ~ To unite people of African origin in all parts of the world. ~ To appeal for the end of European colonization and exploitation of Africa. ~ To look for ways of establishing better relations between the Caucasian and African races. ~ To initiate a movement for securing the full rights for all Africans in and outside Africa and promote the economic rights. ~ To appeal to missionaries and philanthropists in Britain to protect Africans against aggression by colonizers. **Conference Agenda ** ~ Human Rights Violation against blacks in South Africa. ~ Living conditions of blacks in different parts of the world. ~ Racial discrimination against Africans all over the world. The conference sent a Memorandum to the Queen of England demanding respect for the rights of Black People especially in the British Empire. b) The 2 [nd] Pan-African Conference, Paris, 1919. The conference coincided with the Paris Peace conference. The conference was convened by William Du bois who had been sent to Paris by NAACP to investigate the allegations that African American troops stationed in France during world war I experienced racial discrimination and to represent the interest of the black peoples at the Paris peace conference. The conference made the following recommendations; ~ The need for international laws to protect Black people. ~ African land to be held in trust for Africans. ~ The prevention of exploitation of African nations by foreign companies. ~ The rights of Africans to be educated. ~ That slavery and capital punishment were to be abolished. ~ The right of Africans to participate in their government as fast as their development permitted. c) The 3 [rd] Pan-African Conference 1921. The conference was held in three sessions in London, Brussels and Paris. The London session was attended by 41 Africans, 35 American coloureds, 7 West Indies and 24 Africans living in Europe at that time. It was patronaged by Du Bois. The conference demanded for the establishment of political organizations among the suppressed blacks. It emphasized international and interracial harmony and democracy. d) The 4 [th] mPan-African congress (London and Lisbon 1923.) it reiterated earlier ----- 432 ### resolutions and also demanded that black people be treated like human beings. e) The 5 [th] Pan-African Conference, New York 1927. It was mainly attended by African Americans and was partly sponsored by European Philanthropists. It discussed the attitude of the communists towards pan-Africanism. f) The 6 [th] Pan African conference, Manchester 1945.it coincided with the end of the World War II. It was convened by the Pan African Federation which had been formed in 1944 by 13 organizations representing students welfare and political groupings. Leaders of the federation were George Padmore, Ras Makonnen (Ethiopia). C.L.R Wallace Johnson and Jomo Kenyatta. The conference was greatly inspired by the liberation of Ethiopia in 1941 and Clause three of the Atla ntic Charter (1941) (that USA and British governments would respect the right of all people to choose the form of government under which to live) which Winston Churchill claimed was not applicable to the Africans.The conference was convened on 15 [th] oct. 1945 and was attended by 90 delegates who included Du Bois(West Indies), Nkrumah(Ghana), Kenyatta(kenya), Padmore(Trinidad), peter Abrahams(south Africa), Ras Makonnen(Ethiopia), Magnus Williams representing Azikiwa Nnamdi (Nigeria), Obafemi Owolowo(Nigeria) and Kamuzu Banda (Malawi) and 11 observer nations Du bois chaired the conference while Nkrumah and Padmore were joint secretaries. **Uniqueness of the conference. ** a) The conference was mainly organized by Africans from the continent unlike earlier ones which were organized by the Africans in Diaspora. The only exceptions were W.E.B Du Bois and Padmore. b) Representatives of white philanthropists were absent. Neither did they finance the conference. c) Many African trade unions were represented. These included the trade Unions from Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Ghana and Gambia. Most of West Indies was also represented. **Key Resolution of the Manchester Conference ** a. Africans should concentrate on winning political power through non-violent means e.g strikes and boycotts. b. African intellectuals should play an important role in mobilizing the masses to fight for political liberation. Pursuant to the conference resolutions, Kwame Nkrumah established the West African National Secretariat (WANS) on 15 [th] December 1945 in England to act as a regional body for Pan African Federation, promote unity in West Africa. WANS published a newsletter, The New African, whose main aim was to inspire the youth in Africa to resist imperialism. **Why the 1945 Manchester (Pan-African) Congress was a landmark in the history of ** **Africa. ** a) For the first time leading African representatives in the continent attended e.g. Jomo Kenyatta, Kwame Nkrumah, Kamuzu Banda, Haile Sellasie etc. on coming back, they all adopted radical nationalistic demands for independen ce of their states. ----- 433 ### b) It was the first congress that strongly condemned European colonization of Africa and demanded the autonomy and liberty of African states. c) The congress was instrumental in granting of independence to Ghana in 1957 and to Egypt soon after. d) It set the pace for organization of similar conferences in the African continent like; the 1958 All African Congress and the 1960 Tunis-Pan African Peoples Conference. e) During the conference, the solidarity and unity among Africans began to develop and paved way to the formation of Organization of African Unity. f) It marked the establishment of the movements activities in Africa. Why pan-African movement was not active in Africa before 1945 a) There was lack of adequate African representation in the movement before 1945. Africans in the movement were few and were staying outside Africa as political exiles or students. b) Colonial authorities could not allow Africans to organize a movement that was against their policies. Such movements were outlawed. c) The divide and rule policy used by the Europeans made it impossible for Africans to communicate and cooperate. d) Africans in each colony were mainly concerned with issues that affected them directly e.g. Land alienation, forced labour and taxation. e) The only Countries that were independent (Liberia and Ethiopia) could not champion pan-Africanism since they had their own internal problems and paid little attention to international matters e.g. Ethiopia and Liberia. f) Lack of venue to hold meetings on the African soil since the colonial government would not have allowed such meetings. g) Poor state of transport and communication at the time did not permit fast spread of Pan-Africanism. h) Few people were educated and only a minority in Africa had higher education hence there was widespread illiteracy and ignorance. i) Africans were too poor to contribute to pan-African efforts. **The role of Kwame Nkrumah in Pan-Africanism. ** a) He participated in the 1945 Manchester Conference as the secretary during which he proposed that delegates go back to their countries and spearhead the nationaliststruggle for political independence. b) He established the West African National Secretariat (WANS) in England to coordinated pan African federation activities in West Africa and promote pan Africanism. c) He founded the Convention Peoples Party (CPP) in 1949which led Ghana to Independence in 1957. d) As president of Ghana, Nkrumah inspired many African countries to struggle for political independence, and the black civil rights movement in the USA to fight for their rights. ----- 434 ### e) In 1958, he hosted the first pan-African conference of independent states in Accra which pledged to assist fellow Africans to fight for political independence. f) He funded nationalists in other countries e.g. Ghana and Algeria. g) He supported other African leaders who faced political threats from their former colonial masters. For example he assisted the Guinean leader, Sekou Toure, with Loans following the withdrawal of French support to the country after independence h) He championed trade unionism in Africa as a means of promoting pan-Africanism. During the Manchester conference as a joint secretary with George Padmore, he allowed participation of trade Unions from Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Ghana and Gambia. i) He participated in convening various pan-African conferences that led to the formation of O.A.U, an association of independent African states. NB- it is most probably because of his fight against western domination that Nkrumah was eventually overthrown in 1966 in a military coup that forced him into exile. He died on 27 [th] April 1972 in Bucharest, Romania, where he had gone to seek treatment for cancer. **Reasons why the pan-African movement became active in Africa after 1945. ** a) World War II strengthened nationalism in the continent. The Africans quest for political independence received a boost with support from UNO, USA and USSR. b) The 1945 Pan-African Conference in Manchester, brought many African elites together. They later inspired their colleagues back home to join the movement. c) The attainment of political independence in India in 1947 and Burma (now Myanmar) in 1948 encouraged many nationalists in Africa. d) The slowing down of the pan0africanism activities in America during the cold war period activated the same in Africa. USA tried to control activities of people like Padmore who had links with USSR. e) The attainment of independence by Ghana in 1957 inspired other African nations to focus on the liberation of their respective countries rather than fight for the betterment of fellow Africans outside the continent. **Performance of the Pan-African Movement.. ** **Achievements of Pan-Africanism. ** a) The movement created political awareness among people of African origin and a sense of deep concern for suffering of blacks all over the world. b) It put in place Steps towards the restoration of status and dignity to the African people, which had been eroded by slave trade, colonialism and racism. c) The movement provided an important forum where the people of African origin could discuss their problems. It promoted brotherhood among Africans. d) The movement led to the Development of the spirit of solidarity among the African people when dealing with issues that concern the continent. ----- 435 ### e) It laid the basis for the Formation of OAU, which later became the African Union f) The movement enabled African leaders to be more committed to African issues. For example the black caucus in the USA played an important role in pressurizing the US congress to take drastic measures against the Apartheid regime in South Africa. g) The movement laid the foundation for the interest in research on African culture, history, literature, music, religion, medicine, art, etc. this empowered Africans by enabling them to understand the status quo. h) The movement played an important role in the advancement of African nationalism by encouraging peoples of African origin to take pride in their ancestry and demand their rights. i) The movement condemned Mussolinis attempt to colonize Ethiopia in 1935 by organizing protests in major towns like New York, London, Brussels and Paris. **Challenges encountered by the pan African movement. ** a) Many European groups fought the activities of the pan Africanists. The fact that Marcus Garvey was arrested, tried and convicted of fraud (collecting funds unlawfully) and imprisoned for five years is a clear manifestation of this. b) It was difficult for the Africans to participate in African affairs since majority of Africans were still under colonialism. c) Due to lack of economic empowerment and lack of education, many of the pan African projects did not succeed. The Marcus Garvey project for instance collapsed due to mismanagement. d) Illiteracy and ignorance amongst some people of African origin hindered them from offering constructive support. e) The movement was restricted to the African continent after independence in 1960s. ***The absence of African-Americans in the continents affairs dealt a big to its progress. *** f) Division among Africans after independence e.g. Radical and the conservative leaders and between the francophone and the Anglophone countries. g) The European powers domination of the international media was used to water down the importance of pan-Africans by spreading negative propaganda. h) Some of the pan-African leaders could not agree on the best strategy of uplifting the welfare of the African origin peoples. i) The deep economic connection between colonies and the mother countries hindered any meaningful cooperation. j) Lack of venues to hold conferences in Africa especially before 1957 meant that the movement could not take root in Africa quickly. The far-away venues were inconveniencing. The Pan-African movement activities after 1950. Despite the challenges mentioned, the movement was still active in Africa after 1950 as manifested in the political developments that took place in the 1950s and 1960s. ----- 436 ### **The following conferences were convened during that period. ** 1) The 1 [st] Conference of Independent African States, Accra, Ghana April 1958. In attendance were the eight independent African states of Ghana, Egypt, Morocco, Ethiopia, Liberia, Tunisia Sudan and Libya. the delegates pledged to assist fellow African countries who were fighting for political independence.. 2) The All-African Peoples conference, (Accra De. 1958) the conference was attended by freedom fighters and trade unionists from all over Africa. It was chaired by Tom Mboya of Kenya The conferences main resolution was to use all means to acquire political independence and to encourage unity between the African leaders. 3) The All-African Peoples Conference, Tunis, January 1960. It strengthened the desire for unity among African states. 4) The 2 [nd] Conference of Independent African States, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, June 1960. The conference was the forerunner to the formation of a continental Body, OAU. The conference exposed sharp division among African states over the situation in Congo, where Patrice Lumumba was facing problems with his former colonial masters. 5) The Brazzaville Conference December 1960 Attended exclusively by the 12 francophone conservative African states, the conference emphasized the need to respect international Frontiers and noninterference in the internal affairs of any African state. They promised political support for Mauritania in her boundary disputes with morocco. 6) The Casablanca conference, January 1961. It was a reaction to the resolutions of the Brazzaville conference by the radicals who supported Morocco in her dispute with Mauritania. They advocated for the removal of foreign troops in Congo. 7) The Monrovia conference, May 1961. It attracted both moderates and conservatives and aimed at uniting the antagonistic groups. The conference emphasized the absolute equality of all states. The conference succeeded in uniting the hostile groups through the undertaking of two crucial events; ~ The Algerian Referendum of 1961, which passed that the Algerians wanted political independence from France. ~ The situation in Congo stabilized after 1961. **ORGANIZATION OF AFRICAN UNITY (OAU) ** **What was the OAU? ** It was an association of independent African states that existed between 1963 and 2002, when it was renamed the African Union (AU) **Origin and development of OAU. ** It was formed as a climax of a series of pan- Africanism congresses up to 1963. In January 1961, several African independent states, i.e. Egypt, Ghana, morocco, Libya and Algeria, met in Casablanca and pledged to help Patrice Lumumba of Congo against ----- 437 ### the secessionist Tsombe. In May 1961, another group of African states, i.e. Liberia, Tunisia and Togo met in Monrovia and agreed to work in unity to solve the Congo crisis. In august 1961, a bigger group made up of former French colonies met in Brazzaville to find a solution to the Congo crisis.In 1963, the regional groupings compromised and joined with others to form one organization. In May 1963, foreign ministers of 32 independent African states met in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to prepare the agenda for the heads of state meeting.The heads of states met under chair of Emperor Haile Selassie and gave birth to OAU, with Selassie as its first chairperson. Its membership grew from 32 at the time of its inception to 54 ***NB; when the Saharan Arab Democratic Republic was admitted to the OAU in 1984, *** ***Morocco withdrew since she claimed that SADR was part of her territory. *** **The Charter of OAU. ** **Objectives of the OAU. ** a) To provide African countries it a permanent organization through which they could discuss issues affecting them and lay strategies for solving them. b) To provide identity for the newly independent countries of Africa in a world dominated and controlled by the white race. c) To co-ordinate and assist in the speedy decolonization of the rest of Africa. d) To improve the living standards and conditions of African people as a group and as individual states. e) To help in the Defence of the independence of African states and maintenance of the sovereignty of these countries. f) To promote cooperation among the African states in economic, social and political fields so as to improve living standards. g) To promote and enhance African solidarity and unity. h) To support world, peace organizations like the UN and the Non-Aligned Movement. i) To promote peaceful settlement of disputes. j) To promote non-interference in the internal matters of member states. **The fundamental principles of OAU as outlined in the charter. ** a) Recognition of the sovereign equality of member states. b) Non-interference in the internal affairs of member countries. c) Respect for the sovereign and territorial integrity of each country and its inalienable right to independent existence. d) Peaceful settlement of disputes. e) Condemnation of political assassination or any form of subversion by one country in another member country. f) Dedication to the emancipation of territories under colonial rule. g) Adherence to the principle of non-alignment. ----- 438 ### **The structure of the former OAU. ** The OAU charter borrowed heavily from that of the United Nations Organization. The only difference is that no member of OAU enjoys veto powers. All members have equal privileges and vote. The charter outlined the structure of OAU as follows;The Assembly of Heads of State and Government. This was the supreme organ of OAU meeting once a year to discuss specific urgent matters and electing a chairperson every year. A two-third majority vote was used to decide critical issues.The Council of Ministers. It was made up of all foreign ministers of OAU member states and met twice a year to prepare agenda for the meeting of heads of state and government. It implemented decisions passed by heads and prepared the OAU budget.The General Secretariat. Headed by the secretary general elected by the Assembly of Heads of state, it offered the administrative services to the organization on daily basis. The past secretaries were Kifle Wodajo of Ethiopia (1963- 1964), Diallo Telli Boubaker of Guinea (1964-1972), Nzo Ekangaki of Cameroon (1972- 1974), Eteki Mboumoua of Cameroon (1974-1978), Edem Kodjo of Togo (1978-1983), Peter Onu of Nigeria (1983-1985), Ide Oumarou of Niger(1985-1989). The last was Salim Ahmed Salim from Tanzania.The Commission of Mediation, Conciliation and Arbitration. It was charged with the task of settling disputes involving members. It had membership of 21 states and served for a term of five years.Specialized Agencies. The OAU also comprised specialized agencies and committees that handled the technical business of the organization. E.g. the OAU Liberation Committee-to co-ordinate activities of liberation movements. The Economic and Social Commission, the Commission on Education, Science and Culture, the Defence Commission, the Supreme Council of Sports Etc. **Achievements of OAU. ** a) It offered solution to border disputes between member states like Kenya vs. Somalia, Ethiopia vs. Somalia, Libya vs. Chad, morocco vs. Algeria, Chad vs. Nigeria and the Rwanda Burundi conflict. b) The OAU achieved total liberation of African countries, with South Africa being the last one. It offered military support to the nationalistic struggles in Mozambique, Angola, Rhodesia, Namibia and South Africa. c) It condemned human rights violation in countries like Namibia and South Africa. It encouraged economic sanctions against the apartheid regime of South Africa. d) Through the OAU, African governments were able to speak with one voice on matters affecting Africa and they even attempted to formulate a common foreign policy. e) It provided a forum for discussing Africas common problems like desertific ation, foreign interference, and dependency and at the same time sought for solutions to the problems. f) The organization embarked on common economic ventures for Africa. For example creation of the African Development Bank (ADB) which represented the collective ----- 439 ### contribution by all Africans towards emancipation of Africans from economic backwardness. g) It encouraged construction of roads and railways to link different regions. E.g. Tanzam, the Great North Road and the Trans-African Highway. This improved economic co-operation between member states. h) It created a cultural identity for African countries sports and the All -African Games, which provided Africans with the opportunity to meet and socialize. i) Through its refugee agency, it addressed itself to the refugee problem in the continent. E.g. refugees from countries like Rwanda, Burundi, Chad, Gambia, Ethiopia, Sudan and Somalia have been assisted. j) It was instrumental in the formation of regional organizations like ECOWAS, SADDC and COMESA. **Problems that faced OAU during its operation. ** a) Differences in economic development levels and in history of member states militated against co-operation. b) Ideological differences among member states, especially during the Cold war period, hampered the operations of the OAU. c) It lacked sufficient funds to carry out its work efficiently. The members were poor given that all of them were third world countries. d) The problem of sovereignty. Many countries disregarded the OAU resolutions in favour of their sovereignty and national interests. e) It lacked an effective machinery to effect its decisions. It also lacked a standing army to implement and effect its resolutions hence the term Toothless Bulldog coined by Gadaffi to refer to it. f) Loyalty to other organizations. OAU members also belonged to other organizations like ECOWAS, COMESA, The Arab League etc; the interests of these organizations were not always in accord with those of the OAU. g) The colonial legacy. Many problems arising from past colonial policies have rocked the organization. E.g. The land issue in Zimbabwe. There is also the problem of NeoColonialism in trade. h) Interference by the big powers. This has caused dismay to the organization. i) Emergence of dictators like Amin Dada of Uganda, Bakassa Jean Bedel of Central African Republic, And Mobutu of Congo. j) Civil strife in various countries remained unresolved for a long time. E.g in Sudan, Rwanda, Ethiopia, Nigeria. This made cooperation difficult. **THE AFRICAN UNION ** **Origin of the African Union. ** On 9 [th] September 1999, the Heads of State and Government met in Libya and made the Sirte Declaration calling for the establishment of an African Union and a pan-African ----- 440 ### parliament.On 29 [th] may 2000, the document for the formation of African Union and Pan- African Parliament was adopted by the joint sitting of legal experts and parliamentarians. On 2 [nd] June 2000, heads of state and government meeting in Lome, Togo adopted the Constitutive Act of the African Union drafted by the council of ministers. The AU was born in 2002, at a Summit held in Durban, South Africa, where the first Assembly of Heads of State of African Union was convened. **Differences between the former Organization of African Unity and the present ** **African Union. ** a) Unlike the O.A.U, the A.U challenges the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of member states. It allows for intervention whenever a member state experiences conflict or widespread human rights violation. b) O.A.U was like an Association of African Heads of State, but A.U is like a Union of African Peoples. Increased participation of all African people is manifested in the proposed Pan-African Parliament and an economic, social and cultural council. c) Unlike the O.A.U the African Union has an accountability mechanism. An African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) has been developed as a means through which countries can be held accountable on matters of security, development, stability and cooperation. d) Unlike the O.A.U, the A.U has a broader development plan for Africa e.g. through the New Partnership for Africas Development-NEPAD whose main objectives include to promote accelerated growth and sustainable development, to eradicate the widespread poverty in the continent and to halt the marginalization of Africa in the globalization process. e) Unlike OAU, AU presupposes the establishment of a security council and the African Court of Justice with law enforcement powers(A standing military) **The AU Charter. ** **Objectives of AU. ** a) To accelerate the political, social and economic integration of the continent. b) To promote and defend the African common positions on issues of interest. c) To defend the independence and territorial integrity of African states and maintain the sovereignty of these countries. d) To promote democratic principles and institutions, popular participation and good governance. e) To establish the necessary conditions which enable the continent to play its rightful role in the global economy and in international negotiations. f) To promote cooperation among the African states in economic, social and political fields so as to improve living standards. g) To achieve and enhance greater African solidarity and unity. h) To promote peace, security and stability in the continent through peaceful settlement of disputes. ----- 441 ### i) To advance the development of the continent by promoting research in all fields, particularly in science and technology. j) To encourage international cooperation, taking into account the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. k) To work with relevant international partners in the eradication of preventable diseases and promotion o good health on the continent. **The structure of African Union ** The AU charter outlined the structure of AU as follows; 1. The Assembly . This is the supreme organ of AU meeting once a year to elect a chairperson and determine the common policies of the union, consider requests for admission, monitor implementation of policies and decisions, appoint and terminate the judges of the court of Justice among other functions.(students to make additions) Decisions are either by consensus or by two-thirds majority vote. 2. The Executive Council. It is made up of Foreign Ministers or the authorities designated by the member states.

Such functions can be delegated to specialized technical committees. 3. The Commission/Secretariat . Comprises a chairperson, deputy chairperson and eight commissioners and staff members. It deals with the administrative issues and implements decisions of the Union. 4. The Permanent Representatives Committee . It comprises the Ambassadors to the AU. Its main responsibility to prepare for the executive council and run the association daily. It seats permanently in Addis Ababa. 5. Specialized committees and Agencies.

The organization came into force on 1 [st] December 1967. **Objectives of the East African Community. ** a) To maintain a common markets for the member states and promote balanced economic cooperation. b) To provide common services to the three member states especially in the areas of transport and communication. c) To promote political co-operation between the three countries and hence peace and security. d) To facilitate the movement of the people within the region to foster greater cooperation and understanding among them. e) To expand the market in a region where population and incomes are low. **Challenges that faced the East African Community up to 1977. ** a) Suspicion over perceived dominance among members. Tanzania and Uganda accused Kenya of acquiring the lions share of benefits from the community. Kenyan industries for example were protected more by the common external tariffs. ----- 443 ### b) Personality differences. This was between individual leaders of the three countries, making it more difficult for them to hold meetings. c) Ideological differences. Each of the three countries pursued different economies. Kenya followed capitalism and Tanzania socialism. Uganda had a mixed economy. d) Political instability in Uganda. The coup dtat, which overthrew Milton Obote, undermined the unity that was desired for the organization. Nyerere for example refused to recognize Amin as the president of Uganda. e) National pride and interests. National interests were given more priority than the regional interests were. E.g Tanzania favoured railway transport while Kenya favoured road transport. f) Boundary closures .Tanzania closed its common border with Kenya in 1977, thereby halting the community activities. There was also boundary closure between Tanzania and Uganda during the war between the two in 1978. g) Financial constraints resulting from failure by member states to remit funds to meet the organizations needs. h) The use of different currencies by the three nations made transaction difficult. **The Rebirth of the East African Community-2001 ** **Reasons that led to the rebirth of the East African Community in 1996. ** a) There was need to maintain a common market for the member states in order to promote balanced economic cooperation. b) There was increasing need to provide common services to the three Member states especially in the areas of transport and communication as well as research. c) There was a strong desire to promote political cooperation between the three countries in a world that was becoming a global village. d) There was need to facilitate free movement of people in the region. e) A greater lesson had been learnt following the great losses and costs incurred by the East African countries following the collapse of the Community in 1977. **Milestones in the Formation of the East African Community-2001. ** a) The full East African cooperation was started on March 14, 1996, when the Secretariat of the Permanent Tripartite Commission was launched at the headquarters of EAC in Arusha, Tanzania. Ambassador Francis Muthaura was appointed the first secretary general. b) On 19 [th] November 1996, the agreement for the establishment of the East African Business Council was signed in Nairobi. f) On 29 [th] April 1997, the second summit of heads of state was held in Arusha. It launched the first East African Cooperation development strategy (1997 -2000). g) On 30 [th] April 1998, the ninth meeting of the Permanent Tripartite Commission in Arusha launched the treaty for the establishment of the East African Community. h) On 24 [th] November 1998, the first East African Ministerial meeting on the Lake Victoria hyacinth was held in Arusha. A regional strategy was developed for control ----- 444 ### of the lake hyacinth. i) On 22 [nd] January 1999, the third summit met in Arusha and directed the Permanent Tripartite Commission to complete the treaty making process by 30 [th] July 1999. j) The treaty establishing the East African Community-2001 was signed on 30 [th] November 1999 in Arusha by the three heads of state. **The structure of the New East African Community. ** In the november30, 1999 treaty, the following organs were established to coordinate the activities and the direction of the community. 1. The Summit of Heads of State. It had the responsibility of giving direction towards realization of the goals and objectives of the community. It was the communitys supreme organ, consisting of the three heads of state with the chair being rotational. 2. The Council of Ministers. The main decision making organ of the heads of governments of the member states. It comprised the designated ministers from member states. 3. The Coordinating Committee. Made up of permanent secretaries. It reports to the council of ministers. It coordinates the activities of the sectoral committees. 4. The Sectoral Committees. These are committees created by the council on recommendation of the respective coordinating committee. 5. The East African Legislative Assembly. It provides a democratic forum for debate. It is also a watchdog of the activities of the community. It is a 30 -member assembly whose members are drawn from the member state. 6. The Secretariat. Based in Arusha, it carried out the day-to-day administrative duties of the community. 7. The Court of justice of East Africa. This was the highest appellate court in the region. **Other autonomous institutions established by the Council include; ** ~ The East African Development Bank (EADB). ~ Lake Victoria Fisheries Organization (LVFO) ~ Inter-University Council for East Africa (IUCEA) **Challenges that have faced the EAC-2001. ** a) Suspicion still exists over perceived dominance of Kenya in the community affairs. b) Despite signing the treaty in 1999, Tanzania customs are still taxing Kenyan products. c) Increased cross-border smuggling. The freedom of movement within the region sometimes results in smuggling of illegal arms and spread of crime and insecurity. E.g. the smuggling of a vehicle belonging to Kenyas Chief of Staff, General Joseph Kibwana to Tanzania in 2004. d) Cattle rustling across the borders. This is common on the Kenya Uganda border with the Pokot and Karamojong attacking each other e) Arrest of Kenyan fishermen on Lake Victoria by either Tanzania or Ugandan ----- 445 ### policemen/navy accusing them of fishing in their waters. f) Membership to other regional bodies e.g. COMESA, SADDC. This complicates the work of the EAC. g) The recent wrangles between Kenya and Uganda over ownership of Migingo Island. Although this problem was resolved by Uganda conceding Kenyas ownership of the Island, it raised tension between the two countries. h) The use of different currencies by the three nations has made transaction difficult. i) Political squabbles in the individual countries slow down the progress of the community j) Individual national interests have slowed down the implementation of the activities of the community the deep-seated differences between the member states over the proposed taxes on imports from countries outside the region. **Achievements of the East African Community-2001. ** a) It has boosted movement of citizens within the three member states of East Africa. An East African passport has been introduced. b) It has provided a forum for the East African Leaders to discuss issues harmoniously. c) It has facilitated the improvement and expansion of transport and communication networks between the three East African countries. d) Tariffs for industrial goods produced in East Africa have been reduced. e) Investment procedures have been eased to enable all citizens to invest more easily within the community. f) It has enhanced cooperation of the civil society leading to formation of the Law Society of East Africa and the Business Council of East Africa. g) The community has promoted trade among member states by encouraging citizensto conduct trade in all the countries. **THE ECONOMIC COMMUNITY OF WEST AFRICAN STATES. ** **Formation of ECOWAS. ** This is a regional group comprising of 15 West African countries.The treaty establishing ECOWAS was signed in Lagos, Nigeria on 28thmay 1975 by Gambia, Mali, Cape Verde, Burkina Faso, Niger, Benin, Togo, Cote dIvoire, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Senegal, Guinea Bissau, Nigeria and Guinea. **Objectives of ECOWAS. ** a) To provide economic co-operation among West African states in specialized fields such as transport, communication, agriculture, trade industry etc. b) To liberalize trade between member states. c) To improve relations between the member states. d) To improve living standards of people in the member states. e) To create a customs union in the region. f) To promote industrial development among member states. g) To promote cultural interaction among the member states. ----- 446 ### **Organization of ECOWAS. ** The following are organs that were established to coordinate the activities and the direction of ECOWAS. 1.

There was an urgent need for redistribution. c) Serious economic disparity in the country with the former white highlands having adequate provision of water, electricity and roads while the rest lacked enough of the same. d) Overpopulation in urban areas as result of rural-urban migration, putting facilities under pressure and creating unemployment. e) Problem of control of economy by the Europeans prior to independence and after independence. E.g. farm ownership and key industries. f) Lack of qualified manpower to run the technical sectors of the economy. These were issues that were addressed by session paper number 10 of 1965. **Types of landholding in Kenya. ** Land tenure refers to the terms and conditions under which land is acquired, used or transferred At independence the type of landholding in Kenya was mainly communal, where land belonged to the whole community. Access to land was open every member of a social group. Community elders, clan heads or kings were empowered to control and give advice on land use.Land alienation during the colonial period transformed land into a commodity th at could be disinherited from an individual. Such colonial land policies ***leading to alienation of African land resulted in the following;*** a) Widespread landlessness as Africans lost ancestral lands. b) Reduction in land available to Africans leading to land pressure as population increased. c) Deterioration of the quality of land due to fragmentation. d) Overstocking because of limited land, leading to soil erosion. e) Displacement of pastoral and agricultural communities, leading to problems such as famine and livestock diseases. f) Disintegration of social and cultural institutions in the reserves due to ethnic boundaries being fixed, thus separating African communities. The Mau Mau wars which were a consequent of the bitterness arising from land alienation resulted in a number of land reforms under the Swynnerton Plan of 1954. The plan put in place a programmee for land consolidation, adjudication and registration. This was whet the Kenya government inherited at independence. Land Adjudication: - verification of individual or group rights to land within a given area. Land consolidation: - merging of fragmented land into single economic units. Land registration: - recording of rights to land and the consequent issuance of a title deed.The post-colonial land holding system in Kenya.The land tenure system in Kenya after independence was categorized as private or modern, communal or customary, public or state and open accessPrivate land; comprised of 6% of the total land areaGovernment- owned; former crown land, comprised 20% of the land area. It included the national ----- 462 ### parks, government or public forests, alienated (land acquired from customary land owners by government for own use or private development) and unlalienated land (land that has not been leased or allocated by the government).Trust land comprised 64% of the total land area as at 1990. This comprised the former native areas and was awaiting small holder registration to transform it into private tenure system.Land ownership in Kenya has been a source of bitter conflict as manifested in the post election violence after the 2007 elections. The historical injustices in Kenya have always been related to land. In 2010, land ownership in Kenya was classified as follows under the new constitution. a) Public land b) Community land c) Private land a) Public land Public land is the land held by the central or local government. It consists of; ~ Land not set aside for any purpose (unlalienated land). ~ Land set aside for public utility use or land that is occupied by the State organ as lessee. ~ land transferred to the State by way of sale, reversion or surrender; ~ Land to which no individual or community ownership is traceable. ~ Land which no heir can be identified. ~ All minerals and mineral ores. ~ government forests, game reserves, water catchment areas, national parks, government animal sanctuaries, and specially protected areas; ~ All roads and thoroughfares. ~ All rivers, lakes and other water bodies. ~ The territorial sea, the exclusive economic zone and the sea bed. ~ The continental shelf. ~ All land between the high and low water marks. ~ Any other land declared to be public land by an Act of Parliament. **Community land ** Community land is land which is implied as owned by a group of people on the basis of customary norms, not through formal registration. It consists of: ~ Land registered in the name of group representatives. ~ Land transferred to a specific community through a legal process. ~ Any other land declared to be community land by an Act of Parliament. ~ land that is held, managed or used by specific communities as community forests, grazing areas or shrines; ~ Ancestral lands and lands traditionally occupied by hunter gatherer communities; ----- 463 ### ~ Land held as trust land by the county governments, but not including any public land held in trust by the county government. **Private land ** Private land is land (and houses and buildings) held under registered entitlement (freehold or leasehold). It consists of: ~ Registered land held by any person under freehold tenure. ~ Land held by any person under leasehold tenure. ~ Any other land declared private land under an Act of Parliament. Note: ~ Landholding by non-citizens is allowed only through lease for a period not exceeding ninety-nine years. ~ A corporate body, for the purpose of land ownership can only be recognized as a citizen if it is wholly owned by one or more citizens. ~ Property held in trust will only be recognized as being held by a citizen if all the beneficial interest of the trust is held by the persons who are citizens. **Land policies since independence. ** **Two type of programme that characterized land reforms exercise that commenced ** **in 1963 in Kenya were; ** 1) Transfer of land from European large scale farmers to Africans. 2) Land consolidation and registration in which the government purchased several farms from the Europeans and sub-divided them among African holders. **In the former European farms, the government established settlement schemes as ** **follows; ** 1) The Million Acre Scheme which was began in 1963 and involved settling African families on 13.5 hectares each. 2) The Harambee Scheme started in 1969, involved settling families on 16.25 hectares each. 3) The Haraka Scheme where squatters were settled in small plots of land in Central, Coast, Eastern and Rift Valley Provinces. 4) Shirika Scheme started in 1971 to settle the landless and unemployed on the former European lands. Under this scheme, the individual farmers would own a small plot each while the rest of the farm would be managed by a cooperative. This scheme did not succeed since people wished to have their own pieces of land.However, these schemes failed to adequately solve the problems of landlessness in the country. A few politically- connected people acquired large tracts of land, most of which remained underutilized. Some of the schemes are located in areas of harsh climatic conditions and are unviable without irrigation.Several commissions have addressed land issues in Kenya. For example, in 2001, President Moi appointed the Njonjo Commission to investigate the main problems of land ownership and distribution in Kenya. In 2003, the NARC ----- 464 ### government set up the Ndungu Commission on land. Its Recommendations are yet to be implemented.By 1983, 29 districts in Kenya had benefitted from Land adjudication and registration, a process which began in the 1950s in Central Kenya then spread to other parts of the country after 1963. **Benefits of the land reforms in Kenya. ** a) Farmers could use their land title deeds to get loans from banks in order to expand farming on their land. b) Land titles enabled people to purchase land with confidence. No one would alienate them from their land. c) The reforms enabled thousands of landless people to own land. d) Dairy and cash crop production increased. **Land ownership by non-citizens. ** A non-citizen can only own land in the country on the basis of leasehold tenure not exceeding 99 years. **Principles that govern utilization of land in Kenya. ** a) Equitable access to land. All members of the society must have equal access to land since it is an important resource. b) Transparent and cost effective administration of land. State institutions should be given powers and responsibilities of ensuring transparent and accountable administration of land. c) Elimination of gender discrimination. in line with protection of human rights, for all, discrimination against women on issues of land ownership and access to land need be eliminated. d) Sustainable and productive management of land resources. Since land is an economic resource, it should be managed well to ensure maximum productivity. e) Sound conservation and protection of ecologically sensitive areas. Conservation measures like prohibiting settlement and agricultural activities in water catchment areas and zoning of forest lands to protect them from further degradation. f) Encouragement of communities to settle land disputes. This should happen as long as they are consistent with the constitution. Ways in which the Kenya government has solved land related problems since independence. a) The problems related to Communal Land ownership have been solved through land demarcation and adjudication by the government. This saw the conversion from traditional system of land ownership to modern freeload tenure. b) Landlessness was solved through creation of resettlement schemes. Large-scale farms and former European farms were divided into smaller ones and given to the landless. E.g Mwea Tebere, Bura, Shirika etc. c) The government has put marginal lands to more productive use through establishment of irrigation schemes and drainage schemes. ----- 465 ### d) The government removed restriction of movements from the reserves that were created by the colonial government. This decongested the reserves and gave chance to arable farming. e) At independence, the t government embarked on land consolidation policy through which scattered plots were put into one holding. f) The government also embarked on land reclamation measure to bring previously unused land to productive use. g) The Government has established the National Land Commission which manages public land **The National Land Commission. ** **Functions of the National Land Commission. ** a) It manages public land on behalf of the national and county governments. b) It advises the national government on a comprehensive programme for land registration throughout the country. c) It investigates present and past historical injustices, as a result of a complaint or on its on initiative, and recommends appropriate action. d) It has a duty to encourage the use of traditional methods of dispute resolution in land conflicts. e) It recommends the national land policy to the national government. f) It assesses tax on land and premiums on immovable property in any area designated by law. g) It monitors land use planning throughout the country. **Development in agriculture since independence. ** After independence, the government encouraged small scale farming of coffee and tea as opposed to large scale farming that existed during the colonial period. The Agricultural development corporation (ADC) was set up to manage large scale farms that were established by the government in western, Rift Valley and Coast provinces. Such farms specialize in production of seeds to be used by farmers for planting. They also specialize in production of high quality dairy and beef cattle in Kenya.The government also established the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI) in Muguga near Kikuyu to assist in identifying good crop breeds for different types of soils. Irrigation Schemes were expanded in the marginal areas. For example. Mea (central), Bura (coast), Ahero (Nyanza) and Perkerra (central).The government created development authorities to effectively manage water catchment areas. For example, TARDA, KVDA and LBDA. **Challenges facing Kenyas agricultural sector. ** a) The 1984 drought and famine in various parts of the country occasioning supply of relief food to the affected regions. b) Rapid increase in population which is not at pace with the rate of increase in agricultural production. ----- 466 ### c) From the late 1970s, the world market prices of agricultural commodities fell drastically yet the inputs remained expensive. d) Corruption and mismanagement of the cooperatives leading to meager earnings for key cash crops in Kenya. e) Grabbing of research land by corrupt government officials has affected the operations of the research institutes. f) The problem of poor infrastructure in the country sometimes discourages farmers especially during the rainy season. g) Ethnic clashes in Molo in 1991-1992, Likoni in 1997 and Mahi Mahiu in 2005 plus the post election violence in 2008 discouraged farmers from intense farming due to insecurity. h) Poor technology hassled to low yields. People in Kenya still rely on natural rains for agriculture instead of using irrigation. Others use primitive traditional tools in cultivation. i) The problem of pests that destroy the farm yields before reaching the factory. j) Competition from COMESA member states and from the more industrialized powers such as the European Union and USA often frustrate Kenyan farmers. **Industrial developments in Kenya since independence. ** Kenyas industrial sector was shaped by the long period of colonization. At independence, industry was characterized by dominance of foreign capital and dominance of the agricultural sector. **Factors that facilitated industrial development in Kenya since the colonial era. ** a) The existence of raw materials, such as trona (soda ash) at lake Magadi, fluorspar at Kerio Valley and lime in several parts of the country. b) Existence of fish resource from numerous water bodies has promoted the fishprocessing industry. c) Existence of expansive forests which provide timber needed in the furniture industry. d) The rich scenary, e.g Mt. Kenya, Mt. Elgon, the Aberdares and rich wildlife have promoted the tourism industry. e) Kenyas rivers have enough water for production of HEP. f) Increase in population since the colonial period ensured supply of labour and the market required for industries to flourish. g) The transport and communication infrastructure have provided the necessary link between the material producing zones, industries and markets.. h) Existence of rich agricultural lands producing raw materials such as coffee, tea, sugarcane, sisal and fruits **Measures taken by the Kenyan government to promote industrial development since ** **independence. ** a) The government engaged on decentralization programmes to spur development ----- 467 ### in new areas. Industries were established in rural areas. b) The government has embarked on the programmes of funding new markets for industrial products. c) Infrastructure was improved through establishment of more roads, railways and improvement of water transport, to-transport raw materials labour and goods. d) Power concerns were addressed through construction of the Seven Forks Dam to supplement power from neighboring Uganda. e) Favourable government policies have been put in place to attract investors. f) The government has put in place measures to reduce imports in order to protect local infant industries. E.g discriminative tariffs were introduced. g) The government encouraged and assisted in giving capital for industrial development through development of the co-operative movement, funding through Industrial and Commercial Development Corporation(ICDC), the Development Finance Company of Kenya.(DFCK) and the Industrial Development Bank. h) The government has ensured political stability in the country, which is an important factor in industrial development. **Factors that have hindered industrial development in Kenya. ** a) The problem of multi nationals whose interests do not favour Kenyas progress. Multi-national co-operation repatriate capital to their own home countries b) There is shortage of strategic raw materials e.g. petroleum, diamond. Cotton for textile industries. Many industrial companies use imported raw materials. c) Foreigners, who pass policies not friendly to the country, hold managerial positions in industries. d) Mismanagement of major industries and lack of transparency I parastatals. e) Over concentration of industries in few areas leading to negligence of other areas. It also has led to related problems of industrial concentration like the social ills. f) Competition from the industrialized nations who dominate the market and produce high quality goods. g) Poverty limits industrialization. A poor population means a small domestic market thus hindering industrial development. h) Products are produced with low technology hence small quantities. Further reading on industrial development should be done with reference to evolving world book 4 pages 162-164 **Social Development and challenges since independence. ** **Education. ** To solve the problems inherited at independence in the education sector (poor quality education and poor facilities available the Kenya children), the government undertook the following measures; a) Constitutional amendments were made in 1975 to give Kiswahili a respectable position in the country. ----- 468 ### b) Several educational Commissions were set up to streamline education. c) The Harambee strategy was employed to expand educational facilities. Education Commissions. a) The Kenya Education Commission (1964) (The Ominde commission) that recommended overhaul of curriculum to make it relevant. b) The National Committee on Education Objectives and policies- Gachathi commission(1976) that looked into he possibility of setting up a second university. c) Presidential Working Party on the Second University- The Mackey commission (1982) that established the 8-4-4 system and proposed emphasis of vocational subjects such as art and craft, music, agriculture and Home science. d) The Kamunge commission (1988) which recommended cost-sharing in education e) The Koech commission (1999) which recommended reintroduction of A-level system in form of Totally Integrated Quality Edu cation and Training. **Main developments in education in Kenya since independence. ** In 1975, Kiswahili was made the official languages of parliament and learning in schools. The ministry of education established structures right from the district level to national level to help in fulfilling the national objectives of education.Several education commissions were set up to streamline education. The harambee strategy was employed to expand education facilities. Many schools were built.In 1980, the government took over the responsibility of providing pre-primary education.In the 1990s, the government in collaboration with UNICEF launched a programme to promote early childhood education.By 1998, the total number of students in the various universities was over 40,000.In 1969, the ministry of education took over the administration of primary education from local government, this witnessed increased enrolment.In 1978, the government introduced the school milk programme to encourage children especially in drought prone areas to go to school.The programme stalled in 1990 but had achieved higher enrolment in schools.The Ministry of education launched school feeding programme, targeting dry areas.In 2002, the NARC government introduced the Free Primary Education policy.Further reading be done from evolving world on Elementary education and Tertiary education in Kenya. **Health. ** Measures taken to improve the health sector in postcolonial Kenya. a) The ministry of health was created to oversee health matters. b) Expansion of health facilities through harambee and donor funds e.g. Nyanza Provincial hospital (Russian Hospital) c) Many health training institutions were started e.g. Medical training colleges d) Improvement in hygiene through provision of piped water. e) Establishment of several research institutions on human diseases e.g. KEMRI f) Provision of more basic education in order to uplift hygiene standards in the society. g) Provision of free anti-retroviral and anti-malaria drugs. ----- 469 ### **Major challenges facing the Health sector in Kenya. ** a) Increase in population has posed major challenges to the government in the provision of healthcare services to its citizens. There has been a challenge of inadequate doctors and medical facilities. b) The cost- sharing policy introduced in the 1980s to help buy medicine and other equipment has prevented the poor from going to the hospitals. c) The spread of HIV and AIDS and other diseases such as Diabetes and Heart diseases has worsened the situation. d) Cultural practices like Female mutilation have made provision of medical services more challenging. e) Pollution of the environment has increased allergy-related ailments, many of which have no cure. f) Poverty and malnutrition render many people vulnerable to diseases. g) Illegal abortion and early pregnancies endanger the lives of mothers. h) High rate of accidents and injuries, especially on roads. **ways through which the government has encouraged the preservation of African ** **culture since independence. ** a) Creation of the ministry of culture and social services. The ministry promotes cultural and social values. b) The syllabus has been tailored to include cultural studies. c) Inclusion of music as a subject in the national curriculum. d) The government has encouraged music/drama festivals on an annual basis as way of promoting cultural exchange. e) The government has encouraged intermarriage between different ethnic groups. f) The government has developed cultural heritage centre at the Bomas of Kenya, National Archives and Museums. g) Schools have been encouraged to admit people from different communities. h) Allowing the media houses to play traditional music/dance..

Patrice Lumumba (Prime Minister) of Congolese National Movement Party and Joseph Kasavubu of Abako Party (Head of State) formed a fragile coalition government. The two leaders differed ideologically.The period between 1960 and 196 witnessed power struggle between Kasavubu and Lumumba on one side and Secessionist ----- 470 ### Moise Tsombe of Katanga and Albert Kalonji of Kasai on the other side. In 1961, Patrice Lumumba was assassinated. This led to withdrawal of his supporters from government. In 1961, the UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjld perished in a plane crash in the Congo while attempting to bring a peaceful political solution to the Congo crisis.In 1964, a new constitution was formulated as a way of solving the political problems that plagued Zaire soon after independence. Zaire became a federal state with a federal president and separate assemblies for each state.On 23 [rd] November 1965, Joseph Desire Mobutu organized a bloodless military coup, which removed the civilian government of president Kasavubu and Prime Minister Sylvester Kimba.In November 1965, Mobutu took over power after a bloodless coup.In the same year,, Mobutu banned all political parties. He suspended the constitution and parliament. He abolished the federal system and local assemblies and reduced the number of provinces to eight.In 1967, He formed the Peoples Revolution Movement (MPR), which became theonly legal party in Congo. He in effect-replaced democracy with one-party dictatorship leaned to the west during the cold war.1n 1970, Mobutu declared himself the life president of Congo, after winning the presidential election.In 1971, he outlawed the use of European names for people, places and physical features as a way of removing colonial legacy. The country was renamed Zaire. His own name changed to Mobutu Sese Seko. Leopoldville was renamed Kinshasa.In 1973, Mobutu announced the nationalization of all foreign enterprises. In 1977-1978, the Shaba Rebellion broke out mainly after an attack by the Congolese National Liberation Front from their base in Angola. The Belgian troops were called to silence the rebels.In 1990 and 1991, multiparty activists stepped up pressure for change. In September 1991, dissatisfied soldiers and civilians held demonstrations, which led to death of 117 people. In 1997, Laurent Kabila successfully ousted Mobutu, assisted by Rwanda and Uganda. Mobutu fled to exile in Morocco where he died. In January 2001, Laurent Kabila was assassinated in mysterious circumstances. His son took over power.In April 2002, through a powersharing agreement presided over by Thabo Mbeki and a UN envoy, Mustapha Niasse, a government of national unity was formed. **Economic developments in DRC since independence. ** The political chaos inn DRC up to 1965 did not favour any economic progress. During the reign of the Belgians in Congo, no viable economic development was initiated. Little development was done in infrastructure in order to facilitate transportation of raw materials to the ports of Matadi etc.At independence, the country was faced with the problems of shortage of manpower, skills and entrepreneurship.When Mobutu took over, there was some slight economic progress. Transport and communication improved as more roads and railway were constructed to link major towns of Matadi, Kinshasa, Lubumbashi and Kisangani. Navigation on the river Congo was improved, which led go expansion of mining and agricultural sectors.Mining of diamonds resumed after the turbulent years and resulted in reduced inflation.Mobutu encouraged foreign investment ----- 471 ### in the mining sector.However, the fall of world copper prices in 1970s again began to derail the economic growth in DRC.In the 70s, the government nationalized foreign firms employed inexperienced people to control them.In 197, Mobutu enacted a law that placed state finances and expenditure under him, thus reducing the flow of capital to the provinces.In 1976, he encouraged mutual cooperation between private firms and the government in the extraction of minerals such as copper, oil, diamond, cobalt and manganese in a bid to create employment opportunities.He also emphasized on diversification of the economy which greatly boosted food production.The entertainment industry has also grown to become an invisible export through repatriation of profits back home by the foreign based musicians. Energy supply has been increased through the construction of the Luga hydro-electric power station. **Social developments and challenges in DRC since independence. ** Between 1961 and 1965, there was little improvement in the field of health and education in DRC due to constant power struggles and civil strife.When Mobutu took over in 1965, he strived to expand schools and universities. For example, by 1970, he had established three universities. He also improved on the provision of health facilities. He banned religious education in schools. In 1971, attempted to revive indigenous culture through the Authenticity programme that involved renaming places that had foreign names.In the 1970s, in an effort to improve the welfare of citizens, a national insurance programme was established. Mobutu also gave prominence to music as part of the Congolese curriculum.The independent government supported sporting activities through construction of stadium and other sporting facilities.However, living standards in Zaire continued to fall as health services, water and sanitation continued to be inadequate. The steady rise in population was without a commensurate growth of social services. In summary, the common challenges socially were illiteracy, extreme poverty, famine and diseases caused by civil strife, massive unemployment, refugee problem and religious persecutions by Mobutu. **Political challenges that the democratic republic of Congo has faced since ** **independence. ** a) There was general lack of preparedness of the people for independence. Foreigners controlled even the army and the police. b) The assassination of Patrice Lumumba in 1961, which plunged the country into the Congo crisis. c) Political instability/military coup dtat. In November 1965, Mobutu organized a military coup. In 1997, Kabila ousted Mobutu d) Ethnic differences/tribal clashes/civil wars, which split the country into two parts at independence. One controlled by Lumumba and another controlled by Kasavubu. e) The problem of Secession. Secessionist movement of the Katanga region (Shaba) led by Tsombe and Kasai under Kilonji seceded. f) Foreign interference/intrigues. Belgium constantly interfered and intervened in ----- 472 ### Zaires internal matters. France and Britain also began to interfere from 1977 during the cold war period. g) Mutinies in the army were common. **Economic challenges that Democratic Republic Of Congo (D.R.C) faced in 1970s. ** a) Corruption and mismanagement of the economy. Mobutu was the richest president in the world while Zairians became the poorest people in the world. b) Inflation due to power struggle and corruption. By 1980, the countrys currency was not worthy the paper on which it was printed. c) There was also a problem of heavy foreign debt. The country was unable to service her debts. By 1980, Zaire had become the worlds third biggest debtor nation. d) There was a standstill in the economic activities and disruption of railway transport due to civil wars in the country and neighbouring Angola. e) The period also witnessed fall in world copper prices and increase in oil prices f) Lack of a sound economic policy **TANZANIA. ** Political developments in Tanzania since independence.At the time of independence, Tanzania comprised of two countries. I.e. Tanganyika and Zanzibar. Tanzania became independent in 1961 under Julius Nyerere while Zanzibar became independent in 1963 under the Sultan Seyyid Abdullah.In 1962, Tanzania became a one-party state with a republican constitution and an executive president. Tanganyika African National Union (TANU) became the sole political party.On 22 [nd] April 1964, Julius Nyerere and Sheikh Abeid Karume signed a union document. Nyerere became the executive head of state and government while Karume as the first vice-president.In 1967, president Nyerere adopted the ideology of African Socialism through the Arusha Declaration In 1972, the first Vice- president, Sheikh Abeid Karume, was assassinated. Aboud Jumbe succeeded him as Zanzibars president and the vice-president of Tanzania.In 1973, the capital of Tanzania was transferred from Dar-es-Salam to Dodoma.In 1967, the ruling party in the Mainland Tanganyika-TANU and Afro-Shirazi Party in Zanzibar merged to form Chama cha Mapinduzi (CCM). Nyerere became the party chairman.In 1978-1979, president Idi Amin invaded Tanzania to annex the Kagera Province, which he claimed, was a Ugandan territory. Nyerere swiftly repulsed Ugandan soldiers.In 1985, Nyerere retired as president and was replaced by Ali Hassan Mwinyi who had succeeded Jumbe as head of Zanzibar and Tanzanias first vice president.In May 1992, Tanzania adopted multi-partism after the 8 [th] constitutional Amendment Act.In 1995, Tanzania conducted the first multi-party election, where Benjamin Mkapa was elected president. **Social developments in Tanzania since independence. ** The major highlight in the social development of an independent Tanzania was an attempt to create a classless society with e reduced gap, between the rich and the poor. Through the Ujamaa policy, president Nyerere tried to turn Tanzania into a country that had political and economic policies based on African traditions and aspirations. ----- 473 ### Under the policy, communal farms were created.Primary education was made free in 1977 and became compulsory in 1978.At present, Tanzania boasts of the highest number of literate persons in eastern Africa.Upto late 1980s, government provided free health services, until the introduction of the Structural Adjustment Programmes by the Donor community.Kiswahili was adopted as a national language and a major medium of instruction in schools. **Economic developments in Tanzania since independence. ** The main landmark in Tanzanias economic the launch of Ujamaa as a development policy in 1967 during the Arusha declaration..Ujamaa was meant to transform production in rural areas and to increase labour productivity and even allow specialization introduction.The government nationalized all the major means of production and essential services in order to empower people economically.The Tanzam railway was constructed with the help of china and was completed in 1975.In 1976, cooperative societies were abolished and replaced with centralized corporations owned by the government.The period between 1979 and 1985 witnessed economic stagnation in Tanzania as investors pulled out of the country.The collapse of the East African Community also affected the economy of the country.After 1985, Nyereres economic policies began to be challenged openly by scholars and economistsWhen president Mwinyi took over, he undertook to reform the economy of Tanzania. **Political challenges that Tanzania has faced since independence. ** a) There was an Army mutiny in Tanzania 1964, which threatened her political stability. b) The socialism policy (The Arusha Declaration) received stiff opposition from many both internally and externally. People favoured capitalism. c) The assassination of Abeid Karume in 1972 and the resignation of Aboud Jumbe in 1984 appeared to threaten the unity of the two members of the Union Declaration. d) The invasion of Tanzania by Uganda in 1978.and the consequent war with Uganda was costly to the country. It also threatened her cooperation with neighbours. e) There was an escalation of corruption among leading members of Tanzanias political elite, including claims that President Hassan Mwinyi and his family capitalized on liberalization to amass a lot of wealth. f) the re-introduction of multiparty democracy tended to awaken tribalism and regionalism although this problem was contained. **Social problems, which Tanzania faced since independence. ** a) Famine and shortage of health services as the government adopted the Structural Adjustment Policies of IMF. b) Poverty and a general drop in living standards as production dropped due to socialism. c) Lack of social amenities, like clean water in rural areas. d) High illiteracy level. ----- 474 ### e) Unemployment. In Tanzania, industries closed after the Arusha declaration. f) Population explosion which outstripped the countrys resources g) Terrorism. Tanzania was under terrorist attacks in 1997 targeting the American embassy. h) Environmental pollution. i) Over-crowding in urban areas. **Economic challenges. ** a) In the early years of independence, the proliferation of African enterprises led to the widening of the gap between the rich and the poor. b) Under the ujamaa policy, the forced villagization programme did not satisfy communities in areas with favourable climate. They therefore strongly resisted it. c) There was rampant rural-urban migration affecting mainly able-bodied men who felt exploited by the new system of production. d) The abolition of cooperatives was met with stiff resistance with many farmers cutting down heir production. Other producers reverted to the black market. e) The Tanzanian shilling became unstable due to price fluctuations of some commodities. f) There was shortage of donor funds caused by the nationalization programme that was opposed by many donor countries. g) The collapse of the East African Community in 1977 denied Tanzania a large common market for her goods **SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL CHALLENGES IN AFRICA IN ** **GENERAL. ** **Political challenges that have faced African countries since independence ** a) The political systems that were inherited from the colonial governments seemed to be unworkable in many independent African states. b) Sharp ideological difference arose among the pioneer leaders of African states. Such differences internally exploded into civil strife in countries like Mozambique, Angola and DRC. c) The cold war had diverstating effects on Africa. it left many African nations divided and locked in border conflicts that continue up to date. d) Political instability was quite common in African states. Coups dtat and military takeover was witnessed in Somalia, Zaire, Nigeria, Chad etc Human rights were violated with the rise of dictatorship. e) There were strained relations between African leaders caused by personal and ideological differences. Some ended in border closure, which greatly undermined international cooperation. f) Many national interests in Africa countries have been in conflict with global and continental interests. Nigeria and Zimbabwe, for example had to be expelled from the Commonwealth of Nations for alleged disregard of human rights and personal ----- 475 ### property. g) Neo-colonialism. Most countries retain the colonial structures of parliament although they have difficulties in sustaining them. Multinational peacekeeping forces are still common in Africa, many African leaders inherited the divide and rule colonial strategy that precipitates anarchy. h) The existence of different ethnic groups has contributed to ethnic wars as witnessed in Rwanda, Burundi, Sudan, Nigeria and Kenya. i) Most African government seemed ill prepared and in experienced in administration. This resulted in rise of rebel movements, as was the case of Mozambique and Angola. **economic challenges facing independent African states today. ** a) Unemployment and socio-economic inequalities both among individuals and between regions are common in may African nations. b) Overdependence on primary exports. The African economy is an extractive one rather than a manufacturing economy. Many countries depend on agriculture and foreign nations for manufactured goods. c) World trade terms are not fair for African nations.

{"text": "eg She dashed into class indicates action"}
{"text": "S verb v"}

{"text": "Verbs also carry the tense or the time when a particular action took place or is to take place"}

{"text": "Verbs also carry the perfective or the progressive aspect of the action"}

**Safety in the Home and First Aid**
The following will be covered in this chapter:
1. Common Accidents in the Home, Causes, Prevention and Management 2. Assembling a First Aid Kit The home is a safe haven for security and comfort. In order to maintain safety, it is important to take necessary precautions in the home.
**By the end of the lesson, you should be able to:**
Identify common accidents in the home and their causes. Explain how to prevent common accidents in the home.
**The common accidents in the home are:**
Cuts and bruises Burns and scalds Fractures and sprains Suffocation Choking Shock Foreign bodies in the eyes and nose Fainting Nose bleeding Drowning Insect stings and bites Snake bites Poisoning
**Cuts and Bruises**
A cut is a slit or break on the skin caused by sharp objects such as razor blades, broken glass and knives while bruises are caused by blunt blows. Store sharp objects safely. Use and care for knives appropriately. Dispose off empty tins, broken bottles and other sharp objects e.g. by burying. Keep doors of cupboards, wardrobes and drawers closed. Household items should be kept in their appropriate places.
**Management**
**Cuts** Clean the wound with clean water or a weak antiseptic solution. Cover with sterile gauze or a pad of cotton wool and bandage. For a deep cut, press onto the wound with a pad of cotton wool and bandage. Raise the wounded part if it is a limb to reduce pain. Seek medical attention.
**Bruises** Cool the bruised part with very cold water or dab with a cloth soaked in cold water. Raise the injured part if a limb to cut down amount of blood flowing into it so as to reduce the swelling.
**Burns and scalds** Burns are caused by dry heat such as hot charcoal, metal and open flames while scalds are caused by moist heat such as stream and hot liquids.
**Prevention of burns and scalds** Matches, boiling stoves, hot liquids, burning candles should be kept away from children. Store flammable liquids away from children. Lids covering hot foods should be opened away from the handle while cooking. Saucepablows direct or indirect force on bones falls A sprain is a tearing or stretching of ligaments. It is caused by a stretching of a joint beyond the normal level of motion.
Rooms should be tidy and well lit. Floors should be free from spills and peels. Arrest any bleeding that may occur. Use a splint to hold the fracture in place. Apply a sling.
**Choking** Choking is when one is not able to breathe. Choking is caused by food or foreign objects such as seeds, bones and coins stuck in the throat or air passage making breathing difficult. Encourage the casualty to cough Give back slaps
**Obstruction** Avoid putting foreign objects in the mouth.Children should not play while eating. If casualty is breathing, encourage him/her to cough as this will help to dislodge the obstruction. For babies, hold upside down by the legs and pat gently on the upper part of the back until the object pops out.
For older children and adults, hit the person sharply with the palm of the hand between the shoulder blades until the object pops out.You can also stand behind the casualty, link your hand below their naval, press the belly with strong jerks until the object pops out.
**Suffocation**
Suffocation occurs when there is inadequate supply of fresh air or when the wind pipe is blocked, hence preventing air from getting into the lungs.
A child wearing a polythene bag over his/her head Dispose off polythene bags appropriately. Cooking stoves should be used in well ventilated rooms. Replace worn out gas tubes.
Identity the cause and act appropriately. If its the lack of fresh air, take the person outside to an airy place. If it is due to a polythene bag getting stuck in the head, remove it.Check the airways are open and the casualty is breathing.If breathing has stopped, start artificial respiration.Take casualty to hospital for further assessment and management. **Shock**
Shock is a temporary lack of supply of blood to the brain and other vital organs. It is caused by upsetting or good news and events such as electric shock, excessive injury, and illness.
***Causes***
Severe bleeding, either internal or external. Loss of plasma in burns or crash injuries. Heart failure as in acute heart attacks. Loss of body fluid from recurrent vomiting or severe diarrhoea. Acute abdominal emergencies, example perforation of stomach or ruptured appendix. All electric wires should be well insulated and defective equipment repaired and replaced. Do not touch electric switches and appliances with wet hands.
**Prepare one for bad news**
Lay the casualty down and deal with the injury or underlying cause of the shock. Raise and support legs to improve the blood supply to the vital organs. Loosen tight clothing at chest, neck, waist to reduce constriction in these areas. Protect when necessary with a blanket or sheet. Do not give casualty anything to drink. Take him to hospital as soon as possible. **Foreign bodies in the ears, eyes and nose**
A foreign body is anything undesirable that enters into the body such as dust, insects and seeds (common with children).
A child putting a bean in the nose and then breathing it out.People should protect their eyes when walking or working in an area where there are dust particles in the air e.g. by wearing protective gear.Keep small items such as seeds and beads away from children.
***Foreign body in the eye*** Advise the casualty not to rub the eye.Let the casualty sit facing the light, separate the eyelids gently with clean fingers and thumb.If foreign object can be seen, wash it out with clean water. If it is stuck on, remove with a moist swab or damp corner of clean cloth.If the object remains stuck on, bandage the eye and seek medical assistance at the nearest health facility.
***Foreign body in the nose*** Calm the casualty and request him/her to breath through the mouth.Press the unaffected nostril with a finger and blow the nose to remove the object. If it does not come out, do not attempt to remove it, but seed medical assistance. For small children, seek medical assistance immediately. This happens when blood comes out of the nose. It may be caused by an injury, blowing the nose forcefully and picking the nose. Someone pinching the nose to prevent blood from coming out during nose bleeding. The head should be slightly bent.
***Avoid picking the nose.*** ***Avoid blowing the nose too hard and often where possible.*** ***Sit the casualty down with the head forward.*** ***Pinch the nose firmly below the bridge for 10 minutes, making the person breath through the*** ***mouth.*** ***After 10 minutes, request the casualty to release the pressure on the nose.*** ***Encourage the casualty to spit out any blood that flows into the mouth.*** ***If nose bleeding persists beyond 30 minutes, seek medical attention.*** **Drowning**
Drowning is the blockage of air passages by liquids when swimming or if one falls into water bodies such as lakes, rivers and basins. A child bending into a bucket full of water. The child then falls inside.Water storage containers must have tight fitting lids. Do not store water in open containers.All water pools around the house should be drained.Bathtubs should be unplugged after use.
***Do not swim unaccompanied by a life saver.*** ***Remove the casualty from the water as quickly as possible.*** ***Shout for help if you cannot swim.*** ***Once the casualty is out:*** ***Open airways by placing casualty briefly on the side to drain out the water.*** ***Check for breathing and blood circulation.*** ***Start artificial respiration immediately if the casualty is not breathing.*** ***If there is no pulse, start Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation.*** ***If casualty starts breathing, put him/her in a recovery position.*** ***If no response, continue with Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation until help arrives.*** **Insect stings and bites**
Some insects such as bees, wasps and scorpions sting while others such as mosquitoes, ticks, lice and cockroaches bite.
Keep the environment clean. Do not disturb bees and hornets. Air beddings thoroughly and change them frequently.
**Bites** Clean the affected area thoroughly with clean water. If possible apply alcohol or alcohol mixed with iodine on affected areas except those close to the eyes. **Snake bites**
Snake bites can be poisonous or non-poisonous.
***Different types of snakes***
Do not provoke snakes. Clear bushes around the house Lay the casualty down. Reassure the casualty and keep him/her calm and still. Wash wound well and pat dry with clean swabs. Lightly compress the limb above the wound with a roller bandage and immobilize the injury. Clear bushes around the house
**Poisoning**
Poison is any substance which when taken causes harm to the body. It gets into the body through swallowing, breathing in gases (inhalation), contact through pesticides and chemicals pushed through the skin. Baby drinking paraffin from a bottle
*Man seated in an enclosed room without ventilation and there is a jiko, hence he is inhaling carbon* *monoxide.* ***Wash hands after handling pesticides.*** ***Label medicines, insecticides and all other poisonous substances and keep them away from the*** ***reach of children.*** ***Medicines should be taken as prescribed by the doctor.*** ***Do not store chemicals near food*** ***Management of poison that does not burn*** ***If conscious, give drinks of milk or water immediately.*** ***Induce vomiting by touching the back of the throat with fingers.*** ***Give more drinks as you take the person to the nearest health facility.*** ***Note: take the container that held the poison with you.***
**Management of poison that burns**
Give casualty water to drink immediately. Wash away poison from the skin. Refer casualty to nearest health facility **What is First Aid?**
First Aid is the immediate help given to a person who has had an accident or sudden illness before being placed under medical care. It is usually done at the place where the accident occurs.A person who gives first help uses a First Aid Kit. This is a container with items required to give the first help.
By the end of the lesson you should be able to assemble items in a First Aid Kit. ***Borana/ Somali hut*** ***Giriama hut*** ***Luo hut*** ***A Manyatta***
**Manyatta Hut (Maasai)**- Oblong in shape.Uses poles, sticks, grass leaves which are smeared with a plaster of cow dung and mud on both walls and roof.The house has small openings for ventilation.
**Kikuyu hut -**Circular in shape.Constructed using poles, sticks and grass. Walls are plastered with mud and then smeared with clay.
**Borana/Somali hut -**The Borana /Somali people are nomads and as such their houses are constructed in a way that they can easily be dismantled and moved to new locations. Constructed using poles, sticks and grass. Long grass is neatly woven and tied together with strings into portions. The portions are secured in an overlapping manner onto a supporting frame in both the roof and walls of the house. These portions can easily be rolled up and secured for ventilation.
**Giriama hut -**Cone shaped with no apparent difference between the wall and the roof. Made of overlapping long grass tied using strings to a framework of poles and sticks. Palm leaves and twigs are closely woven together to form a detachable door. Housing units where one complete house is built on top of another. The compound is a common ground floor shared by all.
**There are three ways of providing family shelter. These are:** Renting a house Building a house Buying an already built house
**Advantages of building**
***One is able to:*** Build according to taste and specifications that meet the family needs and values. Rent it out and generate income. Have an investment for future. Have a feeling of permanence and stability. Use it as security for loans. Alter and renovate it. Choose the type of materials to use.
**Disadvantages**
Expensive If expertise is lacking the quality of work may be sub-standard. It is involving and time consuming.
**Advantages of Buying a house**
The house is available for occupation as soon as the transactions are complete. One can choose a location that he/she likes. One can select a house design that best meets his/her family requirements. One can use it to secure loans. Expensive if bought through mortgage. If mortgage is not completely paid, the house can be repossessed. A house already built may not meet all the family requirements. **Advantages of Renting a House**
The owner is responsible for maintenance. The tenant rents a house that suits the income and family size. The tenant may vacate the house at will. The tenant chooses a desired location. For example, near social amenities or place of work. Renting is expensive in the long run. One lacks a sense of permanent land ownership. The owner may decide to increase the rent. One cannot modify the house to suit his/her liking. Repairs may not be done on time as required. **Factors determining the building a House**
**1. Family Size**
The house should take care of family members as well as different sexes and ages. This factor is considered for all the methods.

Explain how to prevent common accidents in the home. **The common accidents in the home are:** Cuts and bruises Burns and scalds Fractures and sprains Suffocation Choking Shock Foreign bodies in the eyes and nose Fainting Nose bleeding Drowning Insect stings and bites Snake bites Poisoning **Cuts and Bruises** A cut is a slit or break on the skin caused by sharp objects such as razor blades, broken glass and knives while bruises are caused by blunt blows. **Prevention** ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Store sharp objects safely. Use and care for knives appropriately. Dispose off empty tins, broken bottles and other sharp objects e.g. by burying. Keep doors of cupboards, wardrobes and drawers closed. Household items should be kept in their appropriate places. ## **Management** **Cuts** Clean the wound with clean water or a weak antiseptic solution. Cover with sterile gauze or a pad of cotton wool and bandage. For a deep cut, press onto the wound with a pad of cotton wool and bandage. Raise the wounded part if it is a limb to reduce pain. Seek medical attention. **Bruises** Cool the bruised part with very cold water or dab with a cloth soaked in cold water. Raise the injured part if a limb to cut down amount of blood flowing into it so as to reduce the swelling. **Burns and scalds** Burns are caused by dry heat such as hot charcoal, metal and open flames while scalds are caused by moist heat such as stream and hot liquids. **Prevention of burns and scalds** Matches, boiling stoves, hot liquids, burning candles should be kept away from children. Store flammable liquids away from children. Lids covering hot foods should be opened away from the handle while cooking. Saucepablows direct or indirect force on bones falls A sprain is a tearing or stretching of ligaments. It is caused by a stretching of a joint beyond the normal level of motion. Rooms should be tidy and well lit. Floors should be free from spills and peels. Arrest any bleeding that may occur. Use a splint to hold the fracture in place. Apply a sling. **Choking** Choking is when one is not able to breathe. Choking is caused by food or foreign objects such as seeds, bones and coins stuck in the throat or air passage making breathing difficult. Encourage the casualty to cough Give back slaps # **Obstruction ** ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Avoid putting foreign objects in the mouth.Children should not play while eating. If casualty is breathing, encourage him/her to cough as this will help to dislodge the obstruction. For babies, hold upside down by the legs and pat gently on the upper part of the back until the object pops out. For older children and adults, hit the person sharply with the palm of the hand between the shoulder blades until the object pops out.You can also stand behind the casualty, link your hand below their naval, press the belly with strong jerks until the object pops out. **Suffocation** Suffocation occurs when there is inadequate supply of fresh air or when the wind pipe is blocked, hence preventing air from getting into the lungs. A child wearing a polythene bag over his/her head Dispose off polythene bags appropriately. Cooking stoves should be used in well ventilated rooms. Replace worn out gas tubes. Identity the cause and act appropriately. If its the lack of fresh air, take the person outside to an airy place. If it is due to a polythene bag getting stuck in the head, remove it.Check the airways are open and the casualty is breathing.If breathing has stopped, start artificial respiration.Take casualty to hospital for further assessment and management. **Shock** Shock is a temporary lack of supply of blood to the brain and other vital organs. It is caused by upsetting or good news and events such as electric shock, excessive injury, and illness. ***Causes*** Severe bleeding, either internal or external. Loss of plasma in burns or crash injuries. Heart failure as in acute heart attacks. Loss of body fluid from recurrent vomiting or severe diarrhoea. Acute abdominal emergencies, example perforation of stomach or ruptured appendix. All electric wires should be well insulated and defective equipment repaired and replaced. Do not touch electric switches and appliances with wet hands. **Prepare one for bad news** Lay the casualty down and deal with the injury or underlying cause of the shock. Raise and support legs to improve the blood supply to the vital organs. Loosen tight clothing at chest, neck, waist to reduce constriction in these areas. Protect when necessary with a blanket or sheet. Do not give casualty anything to drink. Take him to hospital as soon as possible. ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES **Foreign bodies in the ears, eyes and nose** A foreign body is anything undesirable that enters into the body such as dust, insects and seeds (common with children). A child putting a bean in the nose and then breathing it out.People should protect their eyes when walking or working in an area where there are dust particles in the air e.g. by wearing protective gear.Keep small items such as seeds and beads away from children. ***Foreign body in the eye*** Advise the casualty not to rub the eye.Let the casualty sit facing the light, separate the eyelids gently with clean fingers and thumb.If foreign object can be seen, wash it out with clean water. If it is stuck on, remove with a moist swab or damp corner of clean cloth.If the object remains stuck on, bandage the eye and seek medical assistance at the nearest health facility. ***Foreign body in the nose*** Calm the casualty and request him/her to breath through the mouth.Press the unaffected nostril with a finger and blow the nose to remove the object. If it does not come out, do not attempt to remove it, but seed medical assistance. For small children, seek medical assistance immediately. ***Foreign body in the ear*** Reassure the casualty and let him/her lie down.Flood the ear with clean water if an insect is lodged inside.If unsuccessful, refer casualty to nearest health facility. **Fainting** It occurs due to temporary loss of blood flow in the brain causing a brief loss of consciousness. Illness such as anemia After receiving bad or good news Hunger Overworking Standing for a long time ***Avoid standing for too long.*** ***Avoid overcrowding and poorly ventilated rooms.*** ***Break bad news calmly.*** ***Lay the casualty down and raise the legs slightly above the level of his head.*** ***Loosen all tight clothing.*** ***Ensure there is plenty of fresh air.*** ***Reassure the casualty.*** ***Gradually, raise him into the sitting position and give sips of water, if required.*** ***If he/she does not regain consciousness, seek medical assistance.*** **Nose Bleeding** ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES This happens when blood comes out of the nose. It may be caused by an injury, blowing the nose forcefully and picking the nose. Someone pinching the nose to prevent blood from coming out during nose bleeding. The head should be slightly bent. ***Avoid picking the nose.*** ***Avoid blowing the nose too hard and often where possible.*** ***Sit the casualty down with the head forward.*** ***Pinch the nose firmly below the bridge for 10 minutes, making the person breath through the*** ***mouth.*** ***After 10 minutes, request the casualty to release the pressure on the nose.*** ***Encourage the casualty to spit out any blood that flows into the mouth.*** ***If nose bleeding persists beyond 30 minutes, seek medical attention.*** **Drowning** Drowning is the blockage of air passages by liquids when swimming or if one falls into water bodies such as lakes, rivers and basins. A child bending into a bucket full of water. The child then falls inside.Water storage containers must have tight fitting lids. Do not store water in open containers.All water pools around the house should be drained.Bathtubs should be unplugged after use. ***Do not swim unaccompanied by a life saver.*** ***Remove the casualty from the water as quickly as possible.*** ***Shout for help if you cannot swim.*** ***Once the casualty is out:*** ***Open airways by placing casualty briefly on the side to drain out the water.*** ***Check for breathing and blood circulation.*** ***Start artificial respiration immediately if the casualty is not breathing.*** ***If there is no pulse, start Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation.*** ***If casualty starts breathing, put him/her in a recovery position.*** ***If no response, continue with Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation until help arrives.*** **Insect stings and bites** Some insects such as bees, wasps and scorpions sting while others such as mosquitoes, ticks, lice and cockroaches bite. Keep the environment clean. Do not disturb bees and hornets. Air beddings thoroughly and change them frequently. **Bites** Clean the affected area thoroughly with clean water. If possible apply alcohol or alcohol mixed with iodine on affected areas except those close to the eyes. ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES **Stings** Pluck the sting firmly with fine tweezers. Apply a cold compress to relieve pain and minimize swelling. ## **Snake bites** Snake bites can be poisonous or non-poisonous. ***Different types of snakes*** Do not provoke snakes. Clear bushes around the house Lay the casualty down. Reassure the casualty and keep him/her calm and still. Wash wound well and pat dry with clean swabs. Lightly compress the limb above the wound with a roller bandage and immobilize the injury. Clear bushes around the house **Poisoning** Poison is any substance which when taken causes harm to the body. It gets into the body through swallowing, breathing in gases (inhalation), contact through pesticides and chemicals pushed through the skin. Baby drinking paraffin from a bottle *Man seated in an enclosed room without ventilation and there is a jiko, hence he is inhaling carbon* *monoxide.* ***Wash hands after handling pesticides.*** ***Label medicines, insecticides and all other poisonous substances and keep them away from the*** ***reach of children.*** ***Medicines should be taken as prescribed by the doctor.*** ***Do not store chemicals near food*** ***Management of poison that does not burn*** ***If conscious, give drinks of milk or water immediately.*** ***Induce vomiting by touching the back of the throat with fingers.*** ***Give more drinks as you take the person to the nearest health facility.*** ***Note: take the container that held the poison with you.*** **Management of poison that burns** Give casualty water to drink immediately. Wash away poison from the skin. Refer casualty to nearest health facility ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Note: take the container that held the poison with you Do not store chemicals near food. **What is First Aid?** First Aid is the immediate help given to a person who has had an accident or sudden illness before being placed under medical care. It is usually done at the place where the accident occurs.A person who gives first help uses a First Aid Kit. This is a container with items required to give the first help. By the end of the lesson you should be able to assemble items in a First Aid Kit. **Contents of a First Aid Kit** *Cotton Wool* *Bandages* *Disposable Gloves* *Clinical Thermometer* *Ointment* *Petroleum Jelly* *Antiseptic* *Adhesive Dressings* *Surgical Blades* *Scissors* *Tweezers* *Pain Killers* *Gauze* *Safety Pins* *Sling* *Notepad and Pen* *Water* # **Housing the Family ** **By the end of this lesson you should be able to:** Explain different ways of providing family shelter. State factors to consider when providing family shelter. identify various types of houses. Traditional houses are constructed using materials such as palm leaves, grass, mud and cow dung, which are not durable. Examples of traditional houses include: ***Manyatta (Maasai hut)*** ***Kikuyu hut*** ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES ***Borana/ Somali hut*** ***Giriama hut*** ***Luo hut*** ***A Manyatta*** **Manyatta Hut (Maasai)** - Oblong in shape.Uses poles, sticks, grass leaves which are smeared with a plaster of cow dung and mud on both walls and roof.The house has small openings for ventilation. **Kikuyu hut -** Circular in shape.Constructed using poles, sticks and grass. Walls are plastered with mud and then smeared with clay. **Borana/Somali hut -** The Borana /Somali people are nomads and as such their houses are constructed in a way that they can easily be dismantled and moved to new locations. Constructed using poles, sticks and grass. Long grass is neatly woven and tied together with strings into portions. The portions are secured in an overlapping manner onto a supporting frame in both the roof and walls of the house. These portions can easily be rolled up and secured for ventilation. **Giriama hut -** Cone shaped with no apparent difference between the wall and the roof. Made of overlapping long grass tied using strings to a framework of poles and sticks. Palm leaves and twigs are closely woven together to form a detachable door. **Luo hut -** Round in shape.Made of poles, sticks and grass for the roof. Wall and floor are smeared with mud and cow dung and beautifully patterned.There are holes on the wall for ventilation. The floor is smeared with cow dung and mud. **Improved Traditional Houses** These are houses that are constructed by a combination of both temporary and permanent materials. Unlike traditional houses, they are partitioned. **Modern Houses** Modern houses are more durable as they are made using strong materials like stones, cement, bricks, metal, and concrete hence making them permanent. Examples of modern houses include: *Bungalow* *Mainsonette* *Flats or Apartments* ***Bungalow*** A house where all rooms and facilities are constructed on the ground floor. Comes in different shapes like L-shaped, U-shaped and rectangular shaped. House where different areas are constructed on two or more floors hence occupying less ground. Different floors are connected by stairs. ***Flats or apartments*** ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Housing units where one complete house is built on top of another. The compound is a common ground floor shared by all. **There are three ways of providing family shelter. These are:** Renting a house Building a house Buying an already built house **Advantages of building** ***One is able to:*** Build according to taste and specifications that meet the family needs and values. Rent it out and generate income. Have an investment for future. Have a feeling of permanence and stability. Use it as security for loans. Alter and renovate it. Choose the type of materials to use. **Disadvantages** Expensive If expertise is lacking the quality of work may be sub-standard. It is involving and time consuming. **Advantages of Buying a house** The house is available for occupation as soon as the transactions are complete. One can choose a location that he/she likes. One can select a house design that best meets his/her family requirements. One can use it to secure loans. Expensive if bought through mortgage. If mortgage is not completely paid, the house can be repossessed. A house already built may not meet all the family requirements. **Advantages of Renting a House** The owner is responsible for maintenance. The tenant rents a house that suits the income and family size. The tenant may vacate the house at will. The tenant chooses a desired location. For example, near social amenities or place of work. Renting is expensive in the long run. One lacks a sense of permanent land ownership. The owner may decide to increase the rent. One cannot modify the house to suit his/her liking. Repairs may not be done on time as required. ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES **Factors determining the building a House** **1. Family Size** The house should take care of family members as well as different sexes and ages. This factor is considered for all the methods. **2. Cost** Choose a house within your means. One that you can afford. 3. Social Amenities A house should be in close proximity to social amenities. **4. Security** Ensure a safe locality and hazardous free zones far from factories, industries, airport and sewages for health reasons. **5. Construction** Quality of material used in building the house should be durable. Workmanship should be of high quality. **6. Type Of Soil** The type of soil affects the cost of building e.g. black cotton soil is most difficult to manage and hence increases the cost **7. Drainage** The site should be well drained to avoid flooding which leads to dampness, pests and damage to property. **8. Orientation** The positioning of the house in relation to the sun and direction of wind should be considered. **9. Ownership** Ensure you are the legal owner of plot/land house and that all legal requirements are taken care of. **Care of the Home** Cleaning Equipment The home should be kept clean at all times. In order to maintain the cleanliness of the home, constant removal of dirt is important. The following equipment is necessary for the removal of dirt: Brooms Scrubbing brush Cobweb brush Carpet brush Toilet brush Buckets and Basins Dustpan and hand broom Mop and mop bucket ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES **State factors to consider when choosing different cleaning equipment.** ***Choice and Care of:*** Brooms and brushes Buckets, basins and karais Dustpans Labour saving equipment ***Brooms and Brushes*** Buy for the correct purpose. Material used should be durable. Bristles should be firmly fixed. The head and handle must be smooth and curved. ***Care*** Use for the correct purpose. Remove loose dirt after every use and clean regularly. Store them appropriately so that the bristles are not damaged. Never store them when wet to avoid bad smell. ***Basins, Buckets, Karais*** Choose those made from durable material. Should be light in weight. Should be easy to clean. Should be washed after use with warm soapy water, rinsed and dried before storage. Store in a cool, clean and dry place. Avoid using scouring pads and strong abrasives as they scratch the surface. ***Dustpan*** The edges should be smooth. Should have a flat base. Should be made from durable material. Clean after every use and store appropriately. Thoroughly clean weekly in hot soapy water, rinse and dry. Do not bang as they loose shape. Use for intended purpose. ***Labour Saving Equipment*** Choice and care of labour saving equipment ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Should be strongly constructed. Should have all the necessary attachments. Buy one that can be easily operated. Make sure it has the correct voltage. Get a manual and a certificate of warranty Get a demonstration from the dealer. Ensure availability of after sales service and spare parts. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Occasionally empty the dust bag of the vacuum cleaner. Replace the brushes of a carpet sweeper once worn out. Wind the cord around the handle and keep all attachments together while not in use. Store in a hanging position. **Types of Kitchen Equipment and their Use** Kitchen equipment is categorized into 3 main groups mainly: Small equipment Large equipment Labour saving equipment/devices **By the end of the lesson you should be able to identify various kitchen equipment and their use.** **SMALL KITCHEN EQUIPMENT** These are usually classified according to their functions namely: Measuring and weighing equipment Cutting tools Shaping and molding Separating tools Lifting, mixing, turning and scooping tools Oven/baking utensils Pans and pots (Cooking vessels) Measuring and Weighing Equipment ***Cutting Tools*** Knives Shaping and Moulding Tools Separating Tools Lifting, Turning, Scooping and Mixing Tools Spoons Oven/ Baking Utensils Pans and Pots Large Kitchen Equipment Labour Saving Devices # **Measuring and Weighing Equipment** ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Cutting Tools Knives Shaping and Moulding Tools Separating Tools Lifting, Turning, Scooping and Mixing Tools Spoons Oven/ Baking Utensils Pans and Pots Large Kitchen Equipment Labour Saving Devices Food Hygiene Food Spoilage and Food Poisoning Food spoilage is the deterioration of food, making it unfit for human consumption.

Identify signs and symptoms of food poisoning. **Causes of Food Poisoning** Chemical Contamination Bacterial Contamination Natural Poisoning Chemical Contamination Pesticides Using chopping board to chop meat then: The same chopping board is used to chop fruits before cleaning Poorly stored maize Maize with aflatoxins **Causes of Food Spoilage** 1. Poor storage of foods 2. Chemicals present in food containers wrappers and packets 3. Keeping food for too long until it rots, wilts or withers. Cover cooked foods to keep off bacteria, pests and pets. Milk should not be stored together with strong smelling foods as it absorbs their smell. Chemicals in Food Canned Meat Chocolate wrapper Prolonged Storage ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Mould Bread Rotten Meat **Food poisoning and food spoilage can be prevented by:** 1. Storing harmful chemicals such as kerosene, detergents away from food. 2. Thoroughly drying grains before storage and then storing them in a clean dry and well ventilated grain store. 3. Not buying foods that have expired or are about to expire. 4. Washing hands, preparing, cooking and serving food in a clean environment. 5. Washing fruits and vegetables before using them. **Signs and Symptoms of Food Poisoning** ***Violent vomiting*** ***High fever*** ***Severe abdominal pain*** ***Dizziness*** ***Diarrhoea*** ***General body weakness*** ***Shivering*** ## **Methods of Cooking ** ***What is cooking?*** Cooking is a process of preparing food by applying heat. Discuss reasons for cooking food. Identify different methods of cooking. State general rules for different methods of cooking. **Why do we cook food?** To improve flavour or taste of food. To improve appearance and make it more appealing. To kill germs and parasites hence making it safe for human consumption. To preserve it. To make it tender/ soft, hence easy to chew, digest and absorb. To improve the texture. **Factors that Determine Methods of Cooking** Type of food to be cooked. Personal taste/ preference. Person being cooked for. Time available. ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Cooking equipment available. Number of people to be served. Amount of money available. **General Rules of Cooking** ***There are two main categories of methods of cooking namely:*** Those that use moist heat Those that use dry heat **Moist Methods** Boiling Stewing Steaming Frying Boiling Method Boiling is cooking food completely immersed in boiling water. **General Rules** Moist foods should be put in cold water and then heated to boil. The water should be at the boiling temperature throughout until food is cooked. The food should be immersed in water. Avoid overcooking. Suggested Foods for Boiling Eggs, Meat, Starchy foods like Sweet Potatoes, Maize, Rice, Beans, Githeri, Bone soup **General Rules for Boiling** Most foods should be put in cold water and then heated to boil. It should be at boiling temperature throughout until food is cooked. Eggs Meat Starchy foods like sweet potatoes,maize, rice Beans Githeri Bone soup **Stewing Method** Stewing is cooking food in a measured amount of liquids. Once the food has boiled it is allowed to simmer.Sufficient amount of liquid water or stock should be added for a stew of the right consistency.The saucepan or pot used should have a tight fitting lid to avoid loss of nutrients.Use gentle heat or cook slowly to avoid hardening proteins and damaging food texture and flavour. **Suggested Foods for stewing** Tough cuts of meat, fruits like pears and pineapples, vegetables like carrots and peas, smoked fish ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES **General Rules for Stewing** Sufficient amount of liquid water should be added.Upon boiling, simmer to avoid denaturing proteins and damaging of texture and flavour of food.Tough cuts of meat Fruits like pears and pineapples. Vegetables like carrots and peas Smoked fish **Steaming Method** This is cooking food using steam from boiled water. Steaming can be done directly or indirectly.Have water boiling prior to steaming.The steamer must have a tight fitting lid to avoid loss of steam.The temperature of the water bath must be boiling throughout. **Suggested Foods for steaming** Fish, Green vegetables, Tender cuts of meat General Rules for Steaming Fish Green vegetables Tender cuts of meat The following is a video clip showing steaming method of cooking. **Frying Method** This is cooking food in hot fat or oil. The food can either be deep, shallow or dry fried.Use a heavy/ strong pan, which has no seam or rivets.All oils/ fats should be of good quality and of high smoking point to avoid overheating fat/oil and burning.Fill the pan until (two thirds) of oil to avoid overflowing when deep frying.Heat the fat/ oil to the right temperature before putting in food.Do not overload the fryer as this lowers the temperature of the oil.Foods to be fried should be dry or coated to prevent splattering. **Suggested Foods for frying** Doughnuts, Fish, Chips, Chapatti, Pancakes, Eggs, Meat **Rules Rules for Frying** The deep frying oil should not be more than (two thirds) full to avoid overflowing when deep frying.Foods to be fried should be dry or coated. *Doughnuts* *Chips* *Chapatti* *Pancakes* *Doughnuts* *Fish* *Chips* *Chapatti* *Pancakes* *Eggs* *Meat* **Dry Methods** ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Roasting Baking Roasting Method Cooking food using direct source of heat which can be done using an oven or over a charcoal fire. Ensure frequent basting or turning of food to keep it moist and ensure even cooking. Food to be roasted should be of good quality e.g. tender cuts of meats. The oven or fire should be ready when beginning to roast. **Suggested Foods for roasting** Meat, Maize, Chicken, Potatoes, Arrow roots, Yams, Cassava General Rules for Roasting Maize Chicken Potatoes Arrow roots Yams Cassava **Baking Method** Cooking food using hot dry air which is done in an oven.

Mineral **Animal Fibres** 1. Wool 2. Silk **Plant Fibres** 1. Cotton 2. Linen **Man-made Fibres** These are fibres that are not made purely from natural raw materials. They are classified into two groups: 1. Regenerated 2. Synthetic **Regenerated Fibres** They are made from natural fibres treated with chemical substances. They include: 1. Viscose Rayon 2. Acetate Rayon **Viscose Rayon** Viscose rayon is made from cotton linters and chemicals. Spinneret **Acetate Rayon** Acetate rayon is made from wood pulp and chemicals. **Synthetic Fibres** Synthetic fibres are made from chemicals. These chemicals are derived from coal, oil or petroleum products. The fibres are made through a process known as polymerisation where polymers are made by ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES the combination of small molecules. ***They include:*** 1. Polyamide 2. Polyester 3. Polyacrylics **Polyamide** They are made from benzene (from coal), oxygen and nitrogen (from air) and hydrogen (from water).Polyamide under the microscope **Polyester** Polyester fibres are derived from petroleum. **Polyacrylics** This is produced from acrylonitrile, a liquid produced from petroleum or natural gas. Elastomerics They are elastic and rubber like substances made from polyunethane. Properties of Textile Fibres **Properties of Cotton** Cotton is produced from the cotton plant. It is one of the most popular natural fibres used to make personal and household articles. ***Desirable qualities of cotton*** Cotton is absorbent making it suitable for towels and undergarments.Cotton is a strong fibre and can withstand the friction required in laundry work. This makes it suitable for school uniforms, children's clothing and bed linen.Cotton can withstand mild alkalis and stain removers hence making it ideal for household linen and daily wear.Cotton can withstand high temperatures. This makes it suitable for items that need to be sterilized such as dish clothes, towels and napkins. Cotton is a good conductor of heat thus keeps the body cool in warm weather.Cotton does not generate and hold static electricity therefore clothes do not cling to the body when worn. This makes it ideal for outdoor clothing.Cotton takes in dyes easily therefore comes in a wide variety of colours.Cotton is resistant to attack from moths. **Undesirable Properties of Cotton** *Creases easily* *Shrinks readily* *Yellows with age* *Not resistant to mildew* *Lacks lustre* *Flammable* ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES *Not resistant to strong acids* **Properties of Linen** *Linen is produced from the stem of a flax plant.* *The properties of linen are similar to those of cotton except that it:* *Is crisp* *Has lustre* *Is stronger* *Frays readily* *Desirable qualities of Linen* *It is used for table linen such as table cloths, napkins, mats and cushions because it is strong, hence* *withstands regular laundering and high temperatures.* *Linen is popularly used in the kitchen because it is strong and is resistant to high temperatures.* *Linen clothes are popular because they are absorbent making them suitable in hot climate.* *Linen takes in dyes easily therefore comes in a wide variety of colours.* *It is popularly used to make household articles like organizers, chair covers and cushions.* *Undesirable Properties of Linen* *Creases readily* *Attacked by mildew* **Properties of Wool** Wool is the hair or fur from animals such as sheep, goats or camels. ***Desirable Properties of Wool*** It has a natural crimp which makes it warm to wear. Wool is resilient making it crease resistant. Wool is non-flammable It is absorbent **Properties of Silk** Silk is produced from the secretion of a silk worm. ***Desirable Properties of Silk*** Silk is a very strong fibre therefore washes and wears well, making it suitable for underwear. Silk has a soft fine lustre therefore popularly used for evening wear. Silk drapes well Silk is absorbent. Silk is resistant to mildew, fungi and moths. It is crease resistant therefore suitable for travel wear. ***Undesirable Properties of Silk*** Weak when wet; Easily damaged by high temperatures; ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Weakened by long exposure to sunlight; Perspiration weakens it; Easily weakened by alkalis and acids. **Properties of Mineral Fibres** **Asbestos** The most commonly used mineral fibre is asbestos. **Properties of Asbestos** It is resistant to fire and most chemicals. Asbestos is commonly used to make fire fighting clothes.Asbestos cloth being resistant to heat and fires is used to make various items such as hats, gloves, belts, ropes and fire fighting uniform. Asbestos fibre is also used as insulation materials for water heaters, fridges and ovens. **Silver strands** are used to make decorative clothes and items. **Gold fibres** are woven into fabric for decorative purposes to make various items. **Properties of Viscose Rayon** Viscose rayon is made from wood pulp and chemicals. The properties of viscose rayon are similar to those of cotton. ***Desirable Properties of Viscose Rayon*** Being a filament fibre it produces a smooth and lustrous surface. It is therefore popularly used to make table cloths and napkins.Viscose is absorbent therefore cool to wear in hot climate.Viscose takes in dyes well and therefore can be produced in a wide variety of colours and designs.Viscose blends easily with other fibres and is normally blended with cotton and wool. This makes it crease resistant and strong while maintaining its high lustre. ***Undesirable Properties of Viscose Rayon*** Is not a strong fibre and is weaker when wet. It should therefore not be twisted, wrung or rubbed during laundry. Scorches when exposed to heat Develops mildew Yellows and rots due to prolonged exposure to light. **Properties of Synthetic Fibres** **Synthetic fibres** are made from chemical substances which are mainly derived from coal, oil or petroleum products. There are properties that are common to all synthetic fibres. ***Desirable Properties of Synthetic Fibres*** Synthetic fibres are very strong. They are therefore used to make a variety of items. ----- ### HOME SCIENCE FORM 1 NOTES Synthetics are smooth and have a lustrous finish. Synthetic fabrics drape well and are popularly used to make curtains and table clothes. Synthetic fabrics are resilient. This means they do not crease easily and are therefore good for traveling and work clothes. Light in weight therefore good for travel. Resistant to sunlight except nylon which yellows with prolonged exposure to sunlight. Not attacked by moths, insects and mildew. ***Undesirable Properties of Synthetic Fibres*** Not absorbent Develop static electricity making them cling to the body and attract dirt. Damaged by chlorine bleaches Damaged by high temperatures Abrasion and prolonged wear causes pilling (small ball-like features) on the fabric. -----"}

Naturally, there are basically three states of matter. (i) Solid -e.g. soil, sand, copper metal,bucket, ice. (ii) Liquid- e.g water, Petrol, ethanol/alcohol, Mercury(liquid metal). (iii) gas- e.g. Oxygen, Nitrogen,Water vapour. **Solids ** Have closely packed particles Have definite shape and volume Have particles that vibrate about fixed positions ----- ##### When heated, particles vibrate more vigorously, bonds weaken, particles space out and solid expands. **Liquids** Liquids: Flow freely because their particles slide over each other as they have weak interparticle forces. Have no definite shape Have definite volume cannot be squashed Can flow because interparticle forces between liquid particles are weak and so the particles can slide over/past each other. **Gases** **Gases ** **Gases; ** Offer least resistance Occupy greater volume than same mass of solids/liquids Have particles that are widely spaced apart (weak interparticle forces) and move with great speed ----- ##### No fixed volume, no fixed shape Are only restricted by shape and size of /container Particles are far apart and can be pushed together (can be easily compressed) Move around easily, quickly and randomly colliding with each other and bounce off, spacing out. **Summary of properties of matter** |state|Particular properties|Col3|Bulk properties|Col5| |---|---|---|---|---| ||motion|distance|shape|volume| |solids|Particles vibrate about fixed positions|very close together|fixed|fixed| |liquids|Translation, rotation and vibration: Translation not so important as particles are very close together|very close together|not fixed|fixed| |gases|Translation, rotation and vibration: Particles fly about very rapidly and collide often|very far apart in molecular terms|not fixed|not fixed| ##### **(b) Separation of mixture ** A mixture is a combination of two or more substances that can be separated by physical means. Simple methods of separating mixtures at basic chemistry level include **-** (i) Sorting/picking this involve physically picking one pure substance from a mixture with another/other. e. g. sorting maize from maize beans mixture. (ii) Decantation- this involve pouring out a liquid from a solid that has settled /sinking ** . ** solid in it. e. g. Decanting water form sand ----- ##### (iii) Filtration -this involves sieving /passing particles of a mixture through a filter containing small holes that allow smaller particle to pass through but do not allow bigger particle to pass through. ----- ##### **-** (iv)Skimming this involve scooping floating particles. e.g. cream from milk **(c) Metals and non-metals ** Metals are shiny, ductile(able to form wires),malleable(able to form sheet) and coil without breaking. e.g. Iron, gold, silver, copper. Mercury is the only liquid metal known. Non-metals are dull, not ductile(do not form wires), not malleable(do not form sheet) and break on coiling/brittle. e.g. Charcoal, Sulphur, plastics. **CONDUCTORS AND INSULATORS** Conductors are made of materials that electricity can flow through easily. These materials are made up of atoms whose electrons can move away freely. ----- ##### Some examples of conductors are: All metals (molten or solid) and the non-metal carbon (graphite). This conduction involves the movement of free or delocalized electrons (e [-] charged particles) and does not involve any chemical change. Any molten or dissolved material in which the liquid contains free moving ions is called the electrolyte. Ions are charged particles eg Na [+] sodium ion, or Cl [-] chloride ion, and their movement or flow constitutes an electric current, because a current is moving charged particles. ##### List of conductors ##### Copper Aluminum Platinum Gold Silver ##### Graphite ##### Salt solutions (e.g. sodium chloride) Water ##### People and Animals Trees Insulators are materials opposite of conductors. The atoms are not easily freed and are stable, preventing or blocking the flow of electricity. Some examples of insulators are: Glass ----- ##### Porcelain Plastic Rubber Electricity will always take the shortest path to the ground. Your body is 60% water and that makes you a good conductor of electricity. If a power line has fallen on a tree and you touch the tree you become the path or conductor to the ground and could get electrocuted. The rubber or plastic on an electrical cord provides an insulator for the wires. By covering the wires, the electricity cannot go through the rubber and is forced to follow the path on the aluminum or copper wires. The ability to conduct electricity is the major simple distinction between elements that are metals and non-metals. #### **(e)Drugs ** ----- #### A drug is a natural or synthetic/man-made substance that when taken changes/alter the body functioning. A natural or synthetic/man-made substance that when taken changes/alter the abnormal body functioning to normal is called medicine . Medicines are thus drugs intended to correct abnormal body functions. . Medicines should therefore be taken on prescription and dosage . A prescription is a medical instruction to a patient/sick on the correct type of medicine to take and period/time between one intake to the other . A dosage is the correct quantity of drug required to alter the abnormal body function back to normal. This is called treatment . It is the professional work of qualified doctors/pharmacists to administer correct prescription and dosage of drugs/medicine to the sick. Prescription and dosage of drugs/medicine to the sick use medical language. ** Example ** (i) 2 x 4 ; means 2 tablets for solid drugs/spoon fulls for liquid drugs taken 4 times for a duration of one day/24 hours and then repeated and continued until all the drug given is finished. (ii) 1 x 2 ; means 1 tablets for solid drugs/spoon fulls for liquid drugs taken 2 times for a duration of one day/24 hours and then repeated and continued until all the drug given is finished. Some drugs need minimal prescription and thus are available without pharmacist/ doctors prescription. They are called O ver T he C ounter(OTC) drugs. OTC drugs used to treat mild headaches, stomach upsets, common cold include: (i) painkillers (ii) anti acids (iii) cold/flu drugs. All medicines require correct intake dosage. When a prescription dosage is not followed, this is called drug misuse/abuse. Some drugs are used for other purposes other than that intended. This is called drug abuse . Drug abuse is when a drug is intentionally used to alter the normal functioning of the body. The intentional abnormal function of the drug is to make the victim have false feeling of well being. The victim lack both mental and physical coordination. Some drugs that induce a false feeling of well being are illegal. They include heroin, cocaine, bhang, mandrax and morphine. Some abused drugs which are not illegal include: miraa, alcohol, tobacco, sleeping pills. ----- ##### **1.2.2 CHEMISTRY AND THE SOCIETY ** Definition of chemistry and its role in the society #### Chemistry is a branch of Science.

GOOGLES: Eye protection is a priority in any science laboratory setting. 5. STIRRER: The function of a stirrer is to agitate liquids for speeding up reactions or improving mixtures. 6. MEASURING CYLINDER: Graduated or measuring cylinders are specifically designed to make accurate liquid volume measurements. #### Measuring cylinders are apparatus used to measure volume of liquid/ solutions. They are calibrated/ graduated to measure any volume required to the maximum. Measuring cylinders are named according to the maximum calibrated/graduated volume e.g. 10ml measuring cylinder is can hold maximum calibrated/graduated volume of 10mililitres /10 cubic centimetres ----- #### 50ml measuring cylinder is can hold maximum calibrated/graduated volume of 50mililitres /50 cubic centimetres 250ml measuring cylinder is can hold maximum calibrated/graduated volume of 250mililitres /250 cubic centimetres 1000ml measuring cylinder is can hold maximum calibrated/graduated volume of 1000mililitres /1000 cubic centimetres BURETTE: #### Burette is a long and narrow/thin apparatus used to measure small accurate and exact volumes of a liquid solution.

The maximum 50ml/50cm [3] calibration/ graduation reading is at the bottom .This ensure the amount run out from a tap below can be determined directly from burette reading before and after during volumetric analysis. **Burettes are expensive and care should be taken when using them. ** Pipette Pipette is a long and narrow/thin apparatus that widens at the middle used to measure and transfer small very accurate/exact volumes of a liquid solution. It is open on either ends. The maximum 25ml/25cm3 calibration/ graduation mark is a visible ring on one thin end. To fill a pipette to this mark, the user must suck up a liquid solution upto a level above the mark then adjust to the mark using a finger. This require practice. **Pipette filler ** Pipette filler is used to suck in a liquid solution into a pipette instead of using the mouth. It has a suck, adjust and eject button for ensuring the exact volume is attained. This requires practice. **Volumetric flasks. ** A volumetric flask is thin /narrow but widens at the base/bottom. It is used to measure very accurate/exact volumes of a liquid solution.

The mass from a beam balance is in grams . 2. Electronic/electric balance. An electronic/electric balance has a pan where a substance of unknown mass is placed. The mass of the unknown substance in grams is available immediately on the screen. **(c)Apparatus for measuring temperature ** A thermometer has alcohol or mercury trapped in a bulb with a thin enclosed outlet for the alcohol/mercury in the bulb. If temperature rises in the bulb, the alchohol /mercury expand along the thin narrow enclosed outlet. The higher the temperature, the more the expansion. Outside, a calibration /graduation correspond to this expansion and thus changes in temperature. ----- #### A thermometer therefore determines the temperature when the bulb is fully dipped in to the substance being tested. To determine the temperature of solid is thus very difficult. **(d)Apparatus for measuring time ** The stop watch/clock is the standard apparatus for measuring time. Time is measured using hours, minutes and second. Common school stop watch/clock has start, stop and reset button for determining time for a chemical reaction.This require practice. **(e) Apparatus for scooping ** 1.

Conical flasks thus carry/hold exact volumes of liquids that have been measured using other apparatus. It can also be put some solids. The narrow mouth ensures no spirage. Conical flasks are named according to the maximum volume they can hold e.g. 250ml Conical flasks hold a maximum volume of 250mililitres /250 cubic centimetres 500ml Conical flasks hold a maximum volume of 500ml /1000 cubic centimetres 5. Round bottomed flask A round bottomed flask is a moderately narrow glass apparatus with a wide round base and no calibration/graduation. Round bottomed flask thus carry/hold exact volumes of liquids that have been measured using other apparatus. The narrow/thin mouth prevents spirage. The flask can also hold (weighed) solids. A round bottomed flask must be held/ clamped when in use because of its wide narrow base. 6.

It can also safely be removed from the funnel by opening the tap. It is used to separate two or more liquid solution mixtures that form layers/immiscibles. This requires practice. **(h) Apparatus for heating/Burners ** 1. Candle, spirit burner, kerosene stove, charcoal burner/jiko are some apparatus that can be used for heating. Any flammable fuel when put in a container and ignited can produce some heat. 2.Bunsen burner The Bunsen burner is the standard apparatus for heating in a Chemistry school laboratory. It was discovered by the German Scientist Robert Wilhelm Bunsen in1854. ( a )Diagram of a Bunsen burner ----- #### A Bunsen burner uses butane/laboratory gas as the fuel. The butane/laboratory gas is highly flammable and thus usually stored safely in a secure chamber outside Chemistry school laboratory. It is tapped and distributed into the laboratory through gas pipes. The gas pipes end at the gas tap on a chemistry laboratory bench .If opened the gas tap releases butane/laboratory gas. Butane/laboratory gas has a characteristic odour/smell that alerts leakages/open gas tap. The Bunsen burner is fixed to the gas tap using a strong rubber tube. The Bunsen burner is made up of the following parts: (i)base plate to ensure the burner can stand on its own (ii)Jet-a hole through which laboratory gas enters the burner (iii)Collar/sleeve-adjustable circular metal attached to the main chimney/burell with a side hole/entry. It controls the amount of air entering used during burning. (iv)Air hole- a hole/entry formed when the collar side hole is in line with chimney side hole. If the collar side hole is not in line with chimney side hole, the air hole is said to be closed If the collar side hole is in line with chimney side hole, the air hole is said to be open (v)Chimney- tall round metallic rod attached to the base plate. ----- #### ( b ) Procedure for lighting/igniting a Bunsen burner 1. Adjust the collar to ensure the air holes are closed. 2. Connect the burner to the gas tap using a rubber tubing. Ensure the rubber tubing has no side leaks. 3. Turn on the gas tap. 4. Ignite the top of the chimney using a lighted match stick/gas lighter/wooden splint. 5. Do not delay excessively procedure (iv) from (iii) to prevent highly flammable laboratory gas from escaping/leaking. ( c ) Bunsen burner flames A Bunsen burner produces two types of flames depending on the amount of air entering through the air holes. If the air holes are fully open, a non luminous flame is produced. If the air holes are fully closed, a luminous flame is produced. If the air air holes are partially open/ closed, a hybrid of non luminous and luminous flames is produced. #### **Characteristic differences between luminous and non-luminous flame ** |Luminous flame|Non-luminous flame| |---|---| |1. Produced when the air holes are fully/completely closed.|1. Produced when the air holes are fully/completely open.| |2. when the air holes are fully/ completely closed there is incomplete burning/ combustion of the laboratory gas|2.when the air holes are fully/ completely open there is complete burning/ combustion of the laboratory gas| |3. Incomplete burning/ combustion of the laboratory gas produces fine unburnt carbon particles which make the flame sooty/smoky|3. Complete burning/ combustion of the laboratory gas does not produce carbon particles. This make the flame non- sooty /non- smoky.| |4. Some carbon particles become white hot and emit light. This flame is thus bright yellow in colour producing light. This makes luminous flame useful for lighting|4. Is mainly blue in colour and is hotter than luminous flame. This makes non- luminous flame useful for heating| |5. Is larger, quiet and wavy/easily swayed by wind|5.Is smaller, noisy and steady| ----- |Col1|Col2| |---|---| |Luminous flame has three main regions: (i)the top yellow region where there is incomplete combustion/burning (ii)the region of unburnt gas below the yellow region where the gas does not burn (iii) blue region on the sides of region of unburnt gas where there is complete burning|Non-luminous flame has four main regions: (i)the top colourless region (ii) blue region just below where there is complete burning.It is the hottest region (iii) green region surrounded by the blue region where there is complete burning (ii)the region of unburnt gas at the innermost surrounded by green and blue regions. No burning takes place here| #### Scientific apparatus are drawn: (i)using a proportional two dimension( 2D ) cross-sections. Three dimensions (3D) are not recommended. (ii)straight edges of the apparatus on a scientific diagram should be drawn using ruler. (iii)curved edges of the apparatus on a scientific diagram should be drawn using free hand. (iv)The bench, tripod or clamp to support apparatus which cannot stand on their own should be shown. **The School Chemistry Laboratory ** Chemistry is studied mainly in a science room called a school chemistry laboratory . The room is better ventilated than normal classroom. It has electricity, gas and water taps . A school chemistry laboratory has a qualified professional whose called Laboratory technician/assistant. All students user in a school chemistry laboratory must consult the Laboratory technician/assistant for all their laboratory work. A school chemistry laboratory has chemicals and apparatus. A chemical is a substance whose composition is known. All chemical are thus labeled as they are. This is because whereas physically a substance may appear similar, chemically they may be different. ----- #### All Chemicals which are not labeled should never be use. Some chemicals are toxic/poisonous, explosive, corrosive, caustic, irritants, flammable, oxidizing, carcinogenic, or radioactive. Care should always be taken when handling any chemical which have any of the above characteristic properties. Common school chemistry laboratory chemicals include: (i)distilled water (ii)Concentrated mineral acid which are very corrosive(on contact with skin they cause painful open wounds) (iii)Concentrated alkali/bases which are caustic(on contact with skin they cause painful blisters) (iv)Very many types of salts The following safety guideline rules should be followed by chemistry laboratory users: (i)Enter the laboratory with permission in an orderly manner without rushing/pushing/scrabbling. (ii)Do not try unauthorized experiments. They may produce flammable, explosive or toxic substances that affect your health. (iii)Do not taste any chemical in the laboratory. They may be poisonous. (iv)Waft gas fumes to your nose with your palm.Do not inhale/smell gases directly. They may be highly poisonous/toxic. (v)Boil substances with mouth of the test tube facing away from others and yourself. Boiling liquids spurt out portions of the hot liquid. Products of heating solids may be a highly poisonous/toxic gas. (vi)Wash with lots of water any skin contact with chemicals immediately.Report immediately to teacher/laboratory technician any irritation, cut, burn, bruise or feelings arising from laboratory work. (vii)Read and follow safety instruction.All experiments that evolve/produce poisonous gases should be done in the open or in a fume chamber. (viii)Clean your laboratory work station after use.Wash your hand before leaving the chemistry laboratory. (ix)In case of fire, remain calm, switch of the source of fuel-gas tap. Leave the laboratory through the emergency door. Use fire extinguishers near the chemistry laboratory to put of medium fires. Leave strong fires wholly to professional fire fighters. (x)Do not carry unauthorized item from a chemistry laboratory. An apparator /apparatus are scientific tools/equipment used in performing scientific experiments. The conventional apparator used in performing a scientific ----- #### experiments is called standard a pparator/apparatus. If the conventional standard apparator/apparatus is not available, an improvised apparator/apparatus may be used in performing a scientific experiments. An improvised apparator/apparatus is one used in performing a scientific experiment for a standard apparator/apparatus. Most standard apparatus in a school chemistry laboratory are made of glass because: (i)Glass is transparent and thus reactions /interactions inside are clearly visible from outside (ii)Glass is comparatively cheaper which reduces cost of equipping the school chemistry laboratory (iii)glass is comparatively easy to clean/wash after use. (iv)glass is comparatively unreactive to many chemicals. Apparatus are designed for the purpose they are intended in a school chemistry laboratory: ----- # SEPARATION OF MIXTURES #### CLASSIFICATION OF SUBSTANCES Substances are either pure or impure. A pure substance is one which contains only one substance. An impure substance is one which contains two or more substances. A pure substance is made up of a pure solid, pure liquid or pure gas. A mixture is a combination of two or more pure substances which can be separated by physical means. The three states of matter in nature appear mainly as mixtures of one with the other. Common mixtures include: **(a)Solutions/solid-liquid dissolved mixture ** **Experiment: ** To make a solution of copper(II)sulphate(VI)/Potassium manganate(VII) /sodium chloride Procedure Put about 100 cm3 of water in three separate beakers. Separately place a half spatula end full of copper(II)sulphate(VI),Potassium manganate(VII) and sodium chloride crystals to each beaker. Stir for about two minutes. Observation Copper(II)sulphate(VI) crystals dissolve to form a blue solution Potassium manganate(VII) crystals dissolve to form a purple solution Sodium chloride crystals dissolve to form a colourless solution Explanation Some solids, liquids and gases dissolve in some other liquids. A substance/liquid in which another substance dissolves is called solvent. A substance /solid /gas which dissolves in a solvent is called solute. When a solute dissolves in a solvent it forms a uniform mixture called solution . A solute dissolved in water as the solvent exists in another state of matter called aqueous state. Water is refered as the universal solvent because it dissolves many solutes. A solute that dissolves in a solvent is said to be soluble . Soluble particles uniformly spread between the particles of water/solvent and cannot be seen. **Solute + Solvent -> solution ** **Solute + Water -> Aqueous solution of solute ** The solute dissolved in water gives the name of the solution e. g. ----- #### 1. Sodium chloride solution is a solution formed after dissolving sodium chloride crystals/solid in water. Sodium chloride exists in aqueous state after dissolving. Sodium chloride + Water -> Sodium chloride solution NaCl( s ) + (aq) -> NaCl( aq ) 2. Ammonia solution is a solution formed after dissolving ammonia gas in water. Ammonia exists in aqueous state after dissolving. Ammonia gas + Water -> Aqueous ammonia NH 3 ( g ) + (aq) -> NH 3 ( aq ) 3. Copper (II)sulphate(VI) solution is a solution formed after dissolving Copper(II) sulphate (VI) crystals/solid in water. Copper (II)sulphate(VI) exist in aqueous state after dissolving. Copper (II)sulphate(VI) + Water -> Copper (II)sulphate(VI) solution CuSO 4 ( s ) + (aq) -> CuSO 4 ( aq ) 4. Potassium manganate(VII) solution is a solution formed after dissolving Potassium manganate(VII) crystals/solid in water. Potassium manganate(VII)exist in aqueous state after dissolving. Potassium manganate(VII) + Water -> Potassium manganate(VII) solution KMnO 4 ( s ) + (aq) -> KMnO 4 ( aq ) **(b)Suspension/ precipitates/solid-liquid mixture which do not dissolve ** **Experiment: To make soil,flour and Lead(II)Iodide suspension/precipitate ** Procedure Put about 100 cm3 of water in three separate beakers. Separately place a half spatula end full of soil,maize and lead(II)Iodide to each beaker. Stir for about two minutes. Observation Some soil, maize and lead(II)Iodide float in the water A brown suspension/precipitate/particles suspended in water containing soil A white suspension/precipitate/particles suspended in water containing flour A yellow suspension/precipitate/particles suspended in water containing Lead(II)iodide. Some soil, maize and lead(II)Iodide settle at the bottom after some time. Explanation Some solid substances do not dissolve in a liquid. They are said to be insoluble in the solvent .When an insoluble solid is put in liquid: ----- #### (i) some particles remain suspended/floating in the liquid to form a suspension / precipitate . (ii) some particles sink/settle to the bottom to form sediments after being allowed to stand . An insoluble solid acquire the colour of the suspension/precipitate .e.g . 1.A white suspension /precipitate has some fine white particles suspended /floating in the liquid. Not white solution 2.A blue suspension /precipitate has some fine blue particles suspended /floating in the liquid. 3.A green suspension /precipitate has some fine green particles suspended /floating in the liquid. 4.A brown suspension /precipitate has some fine brown particles suspended /floating in the liquid. 4.A yellow suspension /precipitate has some fine yellow particles suspended /floating in the liquid. (c) (i) Miscibles /Liquid-liquid mixtures **To form water-ethanol and Kerosene-turpentine miscibles ** Procedure (i)Measure 50cm3 of ethanol into 100cm3 beaker. Measure 50cm3 of water. Place the water into the beaker containing ethanol. Swirl for about one minute. (ii)Measure 50cm3 of kerosene into 100cm3 beaker. Measure 50cm3 of turpentine oil. Place the turpentine oil into the beaker containing kerosene. Swirl for about one minute. Observation Two liquids do not form layers. Ethanol and water form a uniform mixture. Kerosene and turpentine oil form uniform mixture Explanation Ethanol is miscible in Water. Kerosene is miscible in turpentine oil. Miscible mixture form uniform mixture. They do not form layers. The particles of one liquid are smaller than the particles of the other. The smaller particles occupy the spaces between the bigger particles. (ii) Immiscibles /Liquid-liquid mixtures **To form water-turpentine oil and Kerosene-water miscibles ** Procedure (i)Measure 50cm3 of water into 100cm3 beaker. Measure 50cm3 of turpentine oil. Place the oil into the beaker containing water. Swirl for about one minute. ----- #### (ii) Measure 50cm3 of water into 100cm3 beaker. Measure 50cm3 of kerosene. Place the kerosene into the beaker containing water. Swirl for about one minute. Observation Two liquids form layers. Turpentine and water do not form a uniform mixture. Water and kerosene do not form uniform mixture Explanation Kerosene is immiscible in Water. Water is immiscible in turpentine oil. Immiscible mixtures do not form uniform mixtures. They form layers. The size of the particles of one liquid is almost equal to the particles of the other. The particles of one liquid cannot occupy the spaces between the particles of the other. The heavier particles settle at the bottom. The less dense particles settle on top. (d)Solid-solid mixtures/Alloys Before solidifying, some heated molten/liquid metals dissolve in another metal to form a uniform mixture of the two. On solidifying, a uniform mixture of the metals is formed. A uniform mixture of two metals on solidifying is called alloy . In the alloy, one metallic particle occupies the spaces between the metallic particles of the other. **c) Common alloys of metal. ** |Alloy name|Constituents of the alloy|Uses of the alloy| |---|---|---| |Brass|Copper and Zinc|Making scews and bulb caps| |Bronze|Copper and Tin|Making clock springs,electrical contacts and copper coins| |Soldier|Lead and Tin|Soldering, joining electrical contacts because of its low melting points and high thermal conductivity| |Duralumin|Aluminium, Copper and Magnesium|Making aircraft, utensils, windows frames because of its light weight and corrosion resistant.| |Steel|Iron, Carbon ,Manganese and other metals|Railway lines, car bodies girders and utensils.| |Nichrome|Nichrome and Chromium|Provide resistance in electric heaters and ovens| ----- |Col1|Col2|Col3| |---|---|---| |German silver|Copper, Zinc and Nickel|Making coins| #### **METHODS OF SEPARATING MIXTURES ** Mixtures can be separated from applying the following methods: **(a) Decantation ** Sediments can be separated from a liquid by pouring out the liquid. This process is called decantation. Experiment Put some sand in a beaker. Add about 200cm3 of water. Allow sand to settle. Pour off water carefully into another beaker. Observation Sand settles at the bottom as sediments. Less clean water is poured out. Explanation Sand does not dissolve in water. Sand is denser than water and thus settles at the bottom as sediment . When poured out, the less dense water flows out. **(b)Filtration ** Decantation leaves suspended particles in the liquid after separation. Filtration is thus improved decantation. Filtration is the method of separating insoluble mixtures/particles/solids from a liquid. Experiment : To separate soil and water using filtration Fold a filter paper to fit well into a filter funnel. Place the funnel in an empty 250 cm3 beaker. Put one spatula end full of soil into 50cm3 of water. Stir. Put the soil/water mixture into the filter funnel. Observations Clean water is collected below the filter funnel. Soil remains above the filter paper. Explanation A filter paper is porous which act like a fine sieve with very small holes . The holes allow smaller water particles to pass through but do not allow bigger soil ----- #### particles. The liquid which passes through is called filtrate . The solid which do not pass through is called residue . Set up of apparatus In industries, filtration is used in engine filters to clean up air. ----- #### **(c)Evaporation ** Evaporation is a method of separating a solute/solid from its solution. This involves heating a solution (solvent and solute)to vapourize the solvent out of the solution mixture leaving pure solute/solid. If a mixture contain insoluble solid, they are filtered out. Experiment: : To separate a mixture of soil and salt(sodium chloride) . Procedure: Put one spatula end full of soil on a filter paper. Put one spatula full of common salt/sodium chloride into the same filter paper. Mix well using the spatula,. Place about 200cm3 of water into a beaker. Put the contents of the filter paper into the water. Stir thoroughly using a glass/stirring rod for about one minute. Fold a filter paper into a filter funnel. Pour half portion of the contents in the beaker into the filter funnel. Put the filtrate into an evaporating dish. Heat on a water bath. Observation (i)On mixing Colourless crystals and brown soil particles appear on the filter paper. (ii)On adding water Common soil dissolves in water. Soil particles do not dissolve in water. (iii)On filtration Colourless liquid collected as filtrate below the filter funnel/paper. Brown residue collected above the filter funnel/paper. (iv)On evaporation Colourless crystals crystals collected after evaporation Explanation Solid mixture of sand and common salt take the colours of the two. On adding water, common salt dissolve to form a solution . Soil does not because it is insoluble in water and thus forms a suspension. On filtration, a residue of insoluble soil does not pass through the filter paper. It is collected as residue. Common salt solution is collected as filtrate. On heating the filtrate, the solvent/water evaporate/vapourize out of the evaporating dish leaving common salt crystals. Vapourization/evaporation can take place even without heating. This is the principle/process of drying wet clothes on the hanging line. Set up of apparatus ----- #### **(d) Distillation ** Distillation is an improved evaporation where both the solute and the solvent in the solution are separated /collected. Distillation therefore is the process of separating a solution into constituent solid solute and the solvent. It involves heating the solution to evaporate/vapourize the solvent out. The solvent vapour is then condensed back to a liquid. **Experiment: To obtain copper(II)sulphate (VI) crystals and water from ** **copper (II) sulphate(VI) solution. ** Procedure: Put one spatula end full of copper(II)sulphate (VI) crystals into a 250cm3 beaker. Place about 200cm3 of water into the beaker. Stir thoroughly using a glass/stirring rod for about one minute. Pour half portion of the contents in the beaker into a round bottomed/flat/conical flask broken porcelain/sand/glass into the flask. Put a few pieces of b Stopper the flask. Connect the flask to a liebig condenser using delivery tube. Place a 200cm3 clean empty beaker/conical flask as a receiver at the end of the liebig condenser. Circulate water in the liebig condenser. Heat the flask strongly on a tripod stand with wire mesh/gauze until there is no more visible boiling bubbles in the flask. ----- #### Observation Copper (II)sulphate (VI) crystals dissolve in water to form a blue solution. On heating, colourless liquid is collected in the receiver. Blue crystals are left in the flask. (if gently heated further, the blue crystals turn to white powder) Explanation On heating blue Copper (II)sulphate (VI) solution, the colourless liquid solvent evaporate/vapourize . The liquid vapour/gas passes through the delivery tube to the liebig condenser. The liebig condenser has a cold water inlet near the receiver and cold water out let. This ensures efficient cooling. If the cold water outlet/inlet is reversed, the water circulation would be less efficient. The water in the receiver would be warm.In the liebig condenser, the cold water,condenses the liquid vapour into liquid. The condensed liquid collects in the receiver as distillate . The solute of blue Copper (II)sulphate (VI) crystals is left in the flask as residue . During simple distillation,therefore, the solution is heated to vapourize /evaporate the solvent/one component which is condensed at a different part of the apparatus. The purpose of pieces of broken porcelain/porous pot/glass/sand/ is to: (i)prevent bumping of the solution during boiling. (ii)ensure smooth and even boiling. Salty sea water can be made pure through simple distillation. Any mixture with a large difference /40 [o] C in boiling point can be separated using simple distillation. Set up of apparatus ----- #### **(e)Fractional distillation ** Fractional distillation is an improved simple distillation used specifically to separate miscible mixtures with very close /near boiling points. Fractional distillation involves: ( i )Heating the mixture in a conical/round bottomed /flat bottomed flask. The pure substance with a lower boiling point and thus more volatile evaporates/boils/vapourizes first. e.g. Pure ethanol has a boiling point of 78 [o] C.Pure water has a boiling point of 100 [ o] C at sea level/one atmosphere pressure. When a miscible mixture of ethanol and water is heated, ethanol vapourizes /boils/ evaporates first because it is more volatile. ( ii )The conical/round bottomed /flat bottomed flask is connected to a long glass tube called fractionating column . The purpose of the fractionating column is to offer areas of condensation for the less volatile pure mixture. The fractionating column is packed with glass beads/broken glass/ porcelain/ shelves to increase the surface area of condensation of the less volatile pure mixture. ----- #### ( iii )When the vapours rise they condense on the glass beads/broken glass /porcelain / shelves which become hot. When the temperature of the glass beads/broken glass/porcelain/shelves is beyond the boiling point of the less volatile pure substance, the pure substance rise and condensation take place on the glass beads/broken glass/porcelain/shelves at a higher level on the fractionating column. The less volatile pure substance trickles/drips back down the fractionating column or back into the conical/round bottomed /flat bottomed flask to be heated again. e.g. If the temperature on glass beads/broken glass/porcelain/shelves is beyond 78 [o] C, the more volatile pure ethanol rise to condense on the glass beads/broken glass /porcelain/shelves higher in the fractionating column. Water condenses and then drip/trickle to the glass beads/broken glass /porcelain /shelves lower in the fractionating column because it is less volatile. ( iv )The fractionating column is connected to a liebig condenser. The liebig condenser has a cold water inlet and outlet circulation. The more volatile mixture that reach the top of the fractionating column is condenses by the liebig condenser into a receiver. It is collected as the first fraction. ( v )At the top of the fractionating column, a thermometer is placed to note/monitor the temperature of the boiling mixtures . Pure substances have constant/fixed boiling point. When one mixture is completely separated, the thermometer reading rises. e.g. The thermometer reading remains at78 [o] C when ethanol is being separated. When no more ethanol is being separated, the mercury/alcohol level in the thermometer rises. ( vi )The second /subsequent fractions are collected in the receiver after noting a rise the mercury/alcohol level in the thermometer. e.g. The thermometer reading rises to 100 [o] C when water is being separated. It is passed through the liebig condenser with the cold water inlet and outlet circulation. It is collected different receiver as the second/subsequent fraction. (vii)Each fraction collected should be confirmed from known physical/chemical properties/characteristic. e.g. Ethanol ----- #### Ethanol is a colourless liquid that has a characteristic smell .When it is put in a watch glass then ignited, it catches fire and burn with a blue flame. Water Water is a colourless liquid that has no smell/odour .When it is put in a watch glass then ignited, it does not catch fire. Set up of apparatus **Industrial application of Fractional distillation ** On a large scale,fractional distillation is used: (i) In fractional distillation of crude oil in an oil refinery. Crude oil is a mixture of many fractions. When heated in a furnace, the different fractions separate out according to their boiling point. In Kenya,fractional distillation takes place at Changamwe in Mombasa. (ii) In fractional distillation of air. Air contain a mixture of three main useful gases which are condensed by coolin to very low temperature (-200 [o] C) to form a liquid. The liquid is then heated. Nitrogen is the most volatile(-196 [ o] C) and thus comes out as the first fraction. Argon (at -186 o C) is the second fraction. Oxygen ( at -183 o C) is the last fraction. The three gases are very useful industrial gases. ----- #### **(f)Separation of immiscibles (Using a separating funnel) ** Two or more liquids that form layers on mixing are immiscible. Immiscible mixture arrange themselves according to their densities i.e The denser liquid sink to the bottom. The less dense liquid floats on the denser one. Immicible mixtures can be separated from each other by using a separating funnel . Experiment: To separate an immiscible mixture of paraffin and water. Procedure Place about 100cm3 of water into a 250cm3 beaker. Add about 100cm3 of paraffin into the beaker. Stir. Transfer the mixture into a separating funnel. Allow to settle for about one minute. Open the tap, run out the lower layer out slowly into a clean beaker. Close the tap when the upper layer is very close to the tap. Run out the intermediate small amount of the mixture near the tap into a beaker. Discard it. Run out the remaining upper layer into a fresh beaker. Place a portion of upper and lower layer into a watch glass separately after separating each. Ignite. Observation Water and paraffin are both colourless liquids. ----- #### Two layers are formed on mixing. Colourless odourless liquid collected first. It does not catch fire. A colourless liquid with characteristic smell collected later/second. It catches fire and burn with a yellow smoky flame. Explanation Water and paraffin are immiscible. Water is denser than paraffin. When put in a separating funnel, paraffin float on water. On opening the tap, water runs out. A mixture of water and paraffin at the junction of the two is discarded. It is not pure. Set up of apparatus **(g)Sublimation/deposition ** Some solids on heating do not melt to a liquid but change directly to a gas. The process by which a solid changes to a gas is called sublimation . The gas cools back and changes directly to a solid. The process by which a gas changes to a solid is called deposition. Sublimation and deposition therefore are the same but opposite processes. GAS ----- #### Sublimation Deposition SOLID Some common substances that undergo sublimation/ deposition include: (i)Iodine (ii)Carbon(IV)oxide (iii)Camphor (iv) ammonium chloride (v)Iron(III)chloride (vi)Aluminium(III)chloride (vii) benzoic acid If a mixture has any of the above as a component, then on heating it will change to a gas and be deposited away from the source of heating. Procedure Place about one spatula full of ammonium chloride crystals into a clean dry 100cm3 beaker. Add equal amount of sodium chloride crystals into the beaker. Swirl to mix. Place the beaker on a tripod stand. Put about 100cm3 of water into another beaker. Place carefully the beaker containing water on top of the beaker containing the solid mixture. Light/ignite a burner and heat the solid. Set up of apparatus: ----- #### Observation (i)With ammonium chloride/common salt mixture White fumes produced . White sublimate deposited Colourless residue left (ii)With Iodine/common salt mixture Purple fumes produced . Dark grey sublimate deposited Colourless residue left Explanation (i)On heating a mixture of ammonium chloride and common salt, a white fumes of ammonium chloride is produced. The white fumes solidify as white sublimate on the cooler parts. Common salt remains as residue. Chemical equation: NH 4 Cl( s ) NH 4 Cl( g ) ----- #### (ii)On heating a mixture of Iodine and common salt, a purple fumes of Iodine vapour is produced. The purple fumes solidify as dark grey sublimate on the cooler parts. Common salt remains as residue. Chemical equation: I 2 ( s ) I 2 ( g ) **(h)Chromatography ** Chromatography is a method of separating components of a solution mixture by passing it through a medium where the different components move at different rates. The medium through which the solution mixture is passed is called absorbent material . Paper chromatography is a method of separating coloured dyes by using paper as the absorbent material. Since dyes are insoluble/do not dissolve in water, ethanol and propanone are used as suitable solvents for dissolving the dye. Practically, a simple paper chromatography involve placing a dye/material on the absorbent material, adding slowly a suitable soluble solvent on the dye/material using a dropper, the solvent spread out on the absorbent material carrying the soluble dye away from the origin. The spot on which the dye is initially/originally placed is called baseline . The farthest point the solvent spread is called solvent front . The farthest a dye can be spread by the solvent depend on: (i) density of the dye-the denser the dye, the less it spread from the basely ne by the solvent. (ii) Stickiness of the dye-some dyes sticks on the absorbent material more than other thus do not spread far from baseline. **Experiment: To investigate the colours in ink ** Procedure **Method 1 ** Place a filter paper on a an empty beaker. Put a drop of black/blue ink in the centre of the filter paper. Wait for about one minute for the ink drop to spread. Using a clean teat pipette/dropper add one drop of ethanol/propanone. Wait for about one minute for the ink drop to spread further. Add about twenty other drops of ethanol waiting for about one minute before each addition. Allow the filter paper to dry. ----- #### **Experiment: To investigate the colours in ink ** Procedure **Method 2 ** Cut an 8 centimeter thin strip of a filter paper. At about 3cm on the strip, place a drop of ink. Place the filter paper in a 10cm length boiling tube containing 5cm3 of ethanol. Ensure the cut strip of the filter paper just dips into the ethanol towards the ink mark. Cover the boiling tube. Wait for about twenty minutes. Remove the boiling tube and allow the filter paper to dry. Set up of apparatus Method 1 Set up of apparatus Method 2 ----- #### Explanation When a drop of ink is placed on an absorbent material it sticks. On adding an eluting solvent, it dissolves the dye spread out with it. The denser and sticky pure dye move least. The least dense/sticky pure dye move farthest. A pure dye will produce the same chromatogram/spot if the same eluting solvent is used on the same absorbent material. Comparing the distance moved by a pure dye with a mixture,the coloured dyes in a mixture can be deduced as below: **Example 1 ** The chromatogram of pure dyes A, B,C and a dye mixture D is shown below Determine the pure dyes present in D. On the diagram show: (i)the solvent front (ii)baseline (iii)the most soluble pure dye ----- #### **(i) Solvent extraction ** Solvent extraction is a method of separating oil from nuts/seeds. Most nuts contain oil. First the nuts are crushed to reduce their size and increase the surface area. A suitable volatile solvent is added. The mixture is filtered. The filtrate solvent is then allowed to crystallize leaving the oil/fat. If a filter paper is rubbed/smeared with the oil/fat, it becomes translucent. This is the test for the presence of oil/fat. **Experiment: To extract oil from Macadamia nut seeds ** Procedure Crush Macadamia nut seeds form the hard outer cover .Place the inner soft seed into a mortar. Crush(add a little sand to assist in crushing). Add a little propanone and continue crushing. Continue crushing and adding a little propanone until there is more liquid mixture than the solid. Decant/filter. Put the filtrate into an evaporating dish. Vapourize the solvent using solar energy /sunlight. Smear/rub a portion of the residue left after evaporation on a clean dry filter paper. Observation /Explanation Propanone dissolve fat/oil in the macadamia nuts. Propanone is more volatile(lower boiling point)than oil/fat. In sunlight/solar energy, propanone evaporate/vapourize leaving oil/fat(has a higher boiling point).Any seed like corn, ----- #### wheat, rice, soya bean may be used instead of macadamia seed. When oil/fat is rubbed/ smeared on an opaque paper, it becomes translucent. **(j) Crystallization ** Crystallization is the process of using solubility of a solute/solid to obtain the solute/solid crystals from a saturated solution by cooling or heating the solution. A crystal is the smallest regular shaped particle of a solute. Every solute has unique shape of its crystals. Some solutions form crystals when heated. This is because less solute dissolve at higher temperature. Some other solutions form crystals when cooled. This is because less solute dissolve at lower temperature. **Experiment; T o crystallize copper(II)sulphate(VI)solution ** Procedure: Place about one spatula full of hydrated copper sulphate(VI) crystals into 200cm3 of distilled water in a beaker. Stir. Continue adding a little more of the hydrated copper sulphate (VI) crystals and stirring until no more dissolve. Decant/filter. Cover the filtrate with a filter paper. Pierce and make small holes on the filter paper cover. Preserve the experiment for about seven days. Observation/Explanation Large blue crystals formed When hydrated copper(II)sulphate crystals are placed in water, they dissolve to form copper(II)sulphate solution. After some days water slowly evaporate leaving large crystals of copper(II)sulphate. If the mixture is heated to dryness, small crystals are formed. **Physical/Temporary and Chemical changes ** A physical/temporary change is one which no new substance is formed and is reversible back to original. A chemical/permanent change is one which a new substance is formed and is irreversible back to original. The following experiments illustrates physical and chemical changes **(a)Heating ice ** Place about 10g of pure ice in a beaker. Determine its temperature.Record it at time 0.0 in the table below. Heat the ice on a strong Bunsen flame and determine its temperature after every 60seconds/1minute to complete the table below: ----- |Time/minutes|0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| |Temperature o ( C)|-2|0|0|40|80|90|95|95|96| #### Plot a graph of time against Temperature(y-axes) Explain the shape of your graph Melting/freezing/fusion/solidification and boiling /vaporization /evaporation are the two physical processes. Melting /freezing point of pure substances is fixed /constant. The boiling point of pure substance depend on external atmospheric pressure . Melting/fusion is the physical change of a solid to liquid . Freezing is the physical change of a liquid to solid . Melting/freezing/fusion/solidification are therefore two opposite but same reversible physical processes i.e A ( s ) A( l ) Boiling/vaporization/evaporation is the physical change of a liquid to gas . Condensation/ liquidification is the physical change of gas to liquid . Boiling/vaporization/evaporation and condensation/ liquidification are therefore two opposite but same reversible physical processes i.e B ( l ) B( g ) Practically (i) Melting/liquidification/fusion involves heating a solid to weaken the strong bonds holding the solid particles together. Solids are made up of very strong bonds holding the particles very close to each other ( Kinetic Theory of matter ). On heating these particles gain energy/heat from the surrounding heat source to form a liquid with weaker bonds holding the particles close together but with some degree of freedom . (ii)Freezing/fusion/solidification involves cooling a liquid to reform /rejoin the very strong bonds to hold the particles very close to each other as solid and thus lose their degree of freedom ( Kinetic Theory of matter ). Freezing /fusion / solidification is an exothermic ( - H)process that require particles holding the liquid together to lose energy to the surrounding. (iii)Boiling/vaporization/evaporation involves heating a liquid to completely break/free the bonds holding the liquid particles together. Gaseous particles have high degree of freedom ( Kinetic Theory of matter ). Boiling /vaporization / evaporation is an endothermic ( + H) process that require/absorb energy from the surrounding. ----- #### (iv)Condensation/liquidification is reverse process of boiling /vaporization / evaporation. It involves gaseous particles losing energy to the surrounding to form a liquid. # **2.2.2 EFFECT OF HEAT ON SUBSTANCES ** EFFE C T O F HEAT C HAN G E S O F S TATE AND THE KINETI C THE O RY We can use the state particle models, and the diagrams shown below, explain changes of state and the energy changes involved. Ev apo r at i o n a n d B o ilin g ( li qu i d to gas) - On heating particles gain kinetic energy and move faster. - In evaporation and boiling the highest kinetic energy molecules can escape from the attractive forces of the other liquid particles. ----- - The particles lose any order and become completely free to form a gas or vapour. - Energy is needed to overcome the attractive forces in the liquid and is taken in from the surroundings. - This means heat is taken in, so evaporation or boiling are endothermic (require heat to be added) processes. - If the temperature is high enough boiling takes place. - Boiling is rapid evaporation anywhere in the bulk liquid and at a fixed temperature called the boiling point and requires continuous addition of heat. - The rate of boiling is limited by the rate of heat transfer into the liquid. - Evaporation takes place more slowly at any temperature between the melting point and boiling point, and only from the surface, and results in the liquid becoming cooler due to loss of higher kinetic energy particles. Co n de n s in g (gas to li qu i d) - On cooling, gas particles lose kinetic energy and eventually become attracted together to form a liquid. - There is an increase in order as the particles are much closer together and can form clumps of molecules. - The process requires heat to be lost to the surroundings i.e. heat given out, so condensation is exothermic. This is why steam has such a scalding effect, its not just hot, but you get extra heat transfer to your skin due to the exothermic condensation on your surface! M e l t in g (so li d to li qu i d) When a solid is heated the particles vibrate more strongly as they gain kinetic energy and the particle attractive forces are weakened. Eventually, at the melting point, the attractive forces are too weak to hold the particles in the structure together in an ordered way and so the solid melts. The particles become free to move around and lose their ordered arrangement. Energy is needed to overcome the attractive forces and give the particles increased kinetic energy of vibration. So heat is taken in from the surroundings and melting is an endothermic process. Fr ee zin g ( li qu i d to so li d) On cooling, liquid particles lose kinetic energy and so can become more strongly attracted to each other. Eventually at the freezing point the forces of attraction are sufficient to remove any remaining freedom ----- and the particles come together to form the ordered solid arrangement. Since heat must be removed to the surroundings freezing is an exothermic process. Coo lin g a n d H eat in g Cu rv es Sub lim at i o n: |A to B|Ice warms up. Temperature rises from -10 to 00C. No change of state| |---|---| |B to C|Temperature stays constant. Change of state occurs. Ice changes to liquid water.| |C to D|Water warms up. Temperature changes from 00C to 1000C| |D to E|Temperature remains constant. Change of state occurs. Boils to steam at 1000C| This is when a solid, on heating, directly changes into a gas, and the gas on cooling re-forms a solid directly. ----- Th eo r y in te rm s o f pa r t i c l es : When the solid is heated the particles vibrate with increasing force from the added thermal energy. If the particles have enough kinetic energy of vibration to partially overcome the particle-particle attractive forces you would expect the solid to melt. However, if the particles have enough energy at this point that would have led to boiling, the liquid will not form and the solid turns directly into a gas. Overall, this is an endothermic change as energy absorbed and 'taken in' to the system. On cooling, the particles move slower and have less kinetic energy. Eventually, when the particle kinetic energy is low enough, it will allow the particle-particle attractive forces to produce a liquid. But the energy may be low enough to permit direct formation of the solid, i.e. the particles do not have enough kinetic energy to maintain a liquid state! Overall this is an exothermic change, energy released and 'given out' to the surroundings. Su mm a r y - Anything that has mass and occupies space (has volume) - Matter is composed of particles (molecules, ions, atoms) Spaced apart and seen with scanning electron microscope - Are in constant motion attracting one another with inter-particle forces (or cohesive) - Strength of interparticle force and space between particles determines the state. ### ATOMS, MOLECULES, ELEMENTS AND COMPOUNDS THE ATOM An atom is the smallest particle of a substance which can have its own characteristic properties. Atoms are built up of even more fundamental sub-atomic particles. These are electrons, protons and neutrons. ----- The protons and neutrons are in the nucleus (centre) of the atom and the electrons orbit round the outside in shells (energy levels or layers). So you will often see pictures of atoms that look a little like this: ----- How many protons, neutrons and electrons does an atom have? You can work this out using the periodic table. Every element in the periodic table has two numbers with it: the atomic number and the mass number. For example for lithium, the numbers are: The atomic number is the number of protons that the atom has. It is also the number of electrons that the atom has. So lithium has 3 protons and 3 electrons. The mass number is the number of protons and neutrons added together. So, for lithium there are 7 protons and neutrons combined, and we know that 3 of them are protons so there must be 4 neutrons. The atomic number (Z) is also known as the proton number of the nucleus of a particular element. It is the proton number that determines the specific identity of a particular element and its electron structure. The mass number (A) is also known as the nucleon number,that is the sum of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom. The neutron number (N) = mass number (A) - proton/atomic number (Z) Protons and neutrons are the nucleons present in the positive nucleus and the negative electrons are held by the positive nucleus in 'orbits' called energy levels or shells. In a neutral atom the number of protons equals the number of electrons. Example. How many electrons, protons and neutrons are present in an atom of sodium? ----- (a) Sodium has mass number 23 and atomic number 11 Number of electrons = atomic number = 11 Number of protons = atomic number = 11 Number of neutrons = mass number atomic number = 23 11 = 12 Table of mass number, atomic number and s y mbol of selected elements SUMMARY Atoms: - Are made up of protons, neutrons and electrons - Are the smallest units or building blocks of elements - Take part in chemical reactions - Of the same element are the same - Of different elements are different due to different numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons - Have equal number of electrons and protons ----- ELEMENTS AND SYMBOLS An element is a pure substance made up of only one type of atoms. About 92 in the Periodic Table naturally occur from hydrogen H to uranium U. Note that each element has symbol which is a single capital letter like H or U or a capital letter + small letter e.g. cobalt Co, calcium Ca or sodium Na. Each element has its own unique set of properties but the Periodic Table is a means of grouping similar elements together. They may exist as atoms like the Noble Gases e.g. helium (He) or as molecules e.g. hydrogen (H 2 ) or sulphur S 8 . All the atoms of the same element have the same atomic or proton number. This number determines how many electrons the atom has, and so ultimately its chemistry. |ELEMENT|SYMBOL|protons|neutrons|electrons| |---|---|---|---|---| |SODIUM|23Na 11|11|12|11| |calcium|40Ca 20|20|20|20| |Oxygen|16O 8|8|8|8| |Iron|56Fe 26|26|30|26| COMMON ELEMENTS You should know the name and symbol for the following elements. If you see the name, you should know the symbol. If you see the symbol, you should know the name. For the elements, there are other names for the element, sometimes Latin, from which the element symbol was derived or some other name that makes the element more recognizable. You do not need to know the names in parentheses. a.

Compounds are two or more different elements combined. Their atoms have been joined or bonded together. Compounds can be represented by a FORMULA. There must be at least two different types of atom (elements) in a compound. Compounds have a fixed composition and therefore a fixed ratio of atoms represented by a fixed formula, however the compound is made or formed. In a compound, the elements are not easily separated by physical means, and quite often not easily by chemical means either. A compound has properties quite different from the elements it is formed from. For example, soft silvery reactive sodium + reactive green gas chlorine colourless, not very reactive crystals of sodium chloride. |name|Formula|Elements present|Combined atoms| |---|---|---|---| |sodium chloride|NaCl|2 elements|1 atom of sodium and 1 of chlorine| |glucose|C H O 6 12 6|3 elements|6 atoms of carbon, 12 of hydrogen and 6 of oxygen| |methane|CH 4|2 elements|1 carbon atom| ----- Here is a list of some compounds. |No|Name|Elements in that compound| |---|---|---| |1|Copper oxide|Copper & oxygen| |2|Copper sulphide|Copper & sulphur| |3|Copper Sulphate|Copper & sulphur & oxygen| |4|Magnesium Nitride|Magnesium & Nitrogen| |5|Magnesium Nitrate|Magnesium & Nitrogen & Oxygen| |6|Sodium Chloride|Sodium & chlorine| |7|Carbon Monoxide|Carbon & Oxygen| |8|Carbon Dioxide|Carbon & Oxygen| |9|Potassium Carbonate|Potassium & Carbon & Oxygen| Chemical word e q uations For any reaction, what you start with are called the reactants, and what you form are called the products. So any chemical equation shows in some way the overall chemical change of. REACTANTS PRODUCTS ----- This can be written in words or symbols/formulae. The arrow means the direction of change from reactants =to=> products No symbols or numbers are used in word equations. Always try to fit all the words neatly lined up from left to right, especially if it is a long word equation. The word equation is presented to summarise the change of reactants to products. Here are some word equations Iron + sulphur iron sulphide Sodium hydroxide + hydrochloric acid sodium chloride + water Magnesium + hydrochloric acid magnesium chloride + hydrogen Magnesium hydroxide + nitric acid magnesium nitrate + water ----- ### **INTRODUCTION TO ACIDS,BASES AND INDICATORS** #### 1.In a school laboratory: (i)An acid may be defined as a substance that turn litmus red. (ii)A base may be defined as a substance that turn litmus blue. Litmus is a lichen found mainly in West Africa. It changes its colour depending on whether the solution it is in, is basic/alkaline or acidic. It is thus able to identify/show whether another substance is an acid, base or neutral. (iii)An indicator is a substance that shows whether another substance is a base/alkaline,acid or neutral. 2.Common naturally occurring acids include: |Name of acid|Occurrence| |---|---| |1.Citric acid|Found in ripe citrus fruits like passion fruit/oranges/lemon| |2.Tartaric acid|Found in grapes/baking powder/health salts| |3.Lactic acid|Found in sour milk| |4.Ethanoic acid|Found in vinegar| |5.Methanoic acid|Present in ants, bees stings| |6.Carbonic acid|Used in preservation of fizzy drinks like coke, Lemonade, Fanta| |7.Butanoic acid|Present in cheese| |8.Tannic acid|Present in tea| 3.Most commonly used acids found in a school laboratory are not naturally occurring. They are manufactured. They are called mineral acids . Co mm o n min e r a l ac i d s inclu de: |Name of mineral acid|Common use| |---|---| |Hydrochloric acid (HCl)|Used to clean/pickling surface of metals Is found in the stomach of mammals/human beings| |Sulphuric(VI) acid (H SO ) 2 4|Used as acid in car battery, making battery, making fertilizers| |Nitric(V)acid (HNO ) 3|Used in making fertilizers and explosives| 1 ----- #### 4.Mineral acids are manufactured to very high concentration. They are corrosive (causes painful wounds on contact with the skin) and attack/reacts with garments/clothes/metals. In a school laboratory, they are mainly used when added a lot of water. This is called diluting . Diluting ensures the concentration of the acid is safely low. 5. Bases are opposite of acids. Most bases do not dissolve in water. Bases which dissolve in water are called alkalis . Co mm o n a lk a li s in c l ude: |Name of alkali|Common uses| |---|---| |Sodium hydroxide (NaOH)|Making soaps and detergents| |Potassium hydroxide(KOH)|Making soaps and detergents| |Ammonia solution(NH OH) 4|Making fertilizers, softening hard water| Co mm o n bases (w hi c h are no t a lk a li ) in c l ude: |Name of base|Common name| |---|---| |Magnesium oxide/hydroxide|Anti acid to treat indigestion| |Calcium oxide|Making cement and neutralizing soil acidity| 6. Indicators are useful in identifying substances which look-alike. An acid-base indicator is a substance used to identify whether another substance is alkaline or acidic. An acid-base indicator works by changing to different colours in neutral, acidic and alkaline solutions/dissolved in water. Experiment: To prepare simple acid - base indicator Procedure (a)Place some flowers petals in a mortar. Crush them using a pestle. Add a little sand to assist in crushing. Add about 5cm3 of propanone/ethanol and carefully continue grinding. Add more 5cm3 of propanone/ethanol and continue until there is enough extract in the mortar. Filter the extract into a clean 100cm3 beaker. (b)Place 5cm3 of filtered wood ash, soap solution, ammonia solution, sodium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid, distilled water, sulphuric(VI)acid, sour milk, sodium chloride, toothpaste and calcium hydroxide into separate test tubes. 2 ----- #### (c)Put about three drops of the extract in (a)to each test tube in (b).

It is changing to a similar colour for similar solutions. (i)Since lemon juice is a known acid, then sulphuric(VI)and hydrochloric acids are similar in nature with lemon juice because the indicator show similar colours. They are acidic in nature. (ii)Since sodium hydroxide is a known base/alkali, then the green colour of indicator shows an alkaline/basic solution. (iii) Since pure water is neutral,then the orange colour of indicator shows neutral solutions. 7. In a school laboratory, commercial indicators are used. A commercial indicator is cheap, readily available and easy to store. Common indicators include: Litmus, phenolphthalein, methyl orange, screened methyl orange, bromothymol blue.

The indicator uses the pH scale.The pH scale shows the strength of bases and acids. The pH scale ranges from 1-14.These numbers are called pH values : 4 ----- #### (i)pH values 1,2,3 shows a substance is strongly acid (ii) pH values 4,5,6 shows a substance is a weakly acid (iii) pH value 7 shows a substance is a neutral (iv)pH values 8,9,10,11 shows a substance is a weak base/alkali. (v)pH values 12,13,14 shows a substance is a strong base/alkali The pH values are determined from a pH chart.The pH chart is a multicoloured paper with each colour corresponding to a pH value.i.e (i) red correspond to pH 1,2,3 showing strongly acidic solutions. (ii) Orange/ yellow correspond to pH 4,5,6 showing weakly acidic solutions. (iii) Green correspond to pH 7 showing neutral solutions. (iv) Blue correspond to pH 8,9,10,11 showing weakly alkaline solutions. (v) Purple / dark blue correspond to pH 12,13,14 showing strong alkalis. The universal indicator is available as: (i) universal indicator paper / pH paper (ii) universal indicator solution. When determining the pH of a unknown solution using (i)pH paper then the pH paper is dipped into the unknown solution.It changes/turn to a certain colour. The new colour is marched/compared to its corresponding one on the pH chart to get the pH value. (ii) universal indicator solution then about 3 drops of the universal indicator solution is added into about 5cm3 of the unknown solution in a test tube. It changes/turn to a certain colour.

Reaction with metals 6 ----- #### All acids react with a reactive metals to form a salt and produce /evolve hydrogen gas. Metal + Acid -> Salt + Hydrogen gas Experiment : reaction of metals with mineral acids . (a)Place 5cm3 of dilute hydrochloric acid in a small test tube. Add 1cm length of polished magnesium ribbon. Stopper the test tube using a thump. Light a wooden splint. Place the burning splint on top of the stoppered test tube. Release the thump stopper. Record the observations made. (b)Repeat the procedure in (a)above using Zinc granules, iron filings, copper turnings, aluminium foil in place of Magnesium ribbon (c)Repeat the procedure in (a) then (b) using dilute sulphuric(VI) acid in place of dilute hydrochloric acid. Sample observations (i)effervescence/bubbles produced/fizzing in all cases except when using copper (ii)colourless gas produced in all cases except when using copper (iii)gas produced extinguishes a burning wooden splint with an explosion/pop sound. Explanation Some metals react with dilute acids, while others do not. Metals which react with acids produces bubbles of hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is a colourless gas that extinguishes a burning splint with a pop sound. This shows acids contain hydrogen gas. This hydrogen is displaced/removed from the acids by some metals like Magnesium, Zinc, aluminium,iron and sodium. Some other metals like copper, silver, gold, platinum and mercury are not reactive enough to displace/remove the hydrogen from dilute acids. Chemical equations **1.

Neutralization by bases/alkalis All acids react with bases to form a salt and water only. The reaction of an acid with metal oxides/hydroxides(bases) to salt and water only is called neutralization reaction. Since no effervescence/bubbling/fizzing take place during neutralization: (i) the reaction with alkalis require a suitable indicator. The colour of the indicator changes when all the acid has reacted with the soluble solution of the alkali (metal oxides/ hydroxides). (ii) excess of the base is added to ensure all the acid reacts. The excess acid is then filtered off. Experiment 1 : reaction of alkali with mineral acids. (i)Place about 5cm3 of dilute hydrochloric acid in a boiling tube. Add one drop of phenolphthalein indicator. Using a dropper/teat pipette, add dilute sodium hydroxide dropwise until there is a colour change. (ii)Repeat the procedure with dilute sulphuric (VI)acid instead of hydrochloric acid. (iii)Repeat the procedure with potassium hydroxide instead of sodium hydroxide. Sample observation: Colour of phenolphthalein change from colourless to pink in all cases. Explanation 10 ----- #### Bases/alkalis neutralize acids. Acids and bases/alkalis are colourless. A suitable indicator like phenolphthalein change colour to pink, when all the acid has been neutralized by the bases/alkalis. Phenolphthalein change colour from pink, to colourless when all the bases/alkalis has been neutralized by the acid.

AIR AND COMBUSTION ** #### 1.The atmosphere is made up of air. Air is a mixture of colourless, odourless gases which is felt as wind(air in motion).All living things breath in air for respiration . Plants use air for respiration and photosynthesis. 2.The main gases present in the atmosphere/air: |Gas|Approximate % composition by volume| |---|---| |Nitrogen|78.0| |Oxygen|21.0| |Carbon(IV)oxide|0.03| |Noble gases|1.0| |Water vapour|Vary from region| 3. The following experiments below shows the presence and composition of the gases in air/atmosphere **(a)To find the composition of air supporting combustion using a candle stick ** Procedure Measure the length of and empty gas jar M 1 . Place a candle stick on a petri dish. Float it on water in basin/trough. Cover it with the gas jar. Mark the level of the water in the gas jar M 2 . Remove the gas jar. Light the candle sick. Carefully cover it with the gas jar. Observe for two minutes. Mark the new level of the water M 3 . Set up of apparatus ----- #### Sample observations Candle continues to burn then extinguished/goes off Level of water in the gas jar rises after igniting the candle Length of empty gas jar = M 1 = 14cm Length of gas jar without water before igniting candle = M 2 = 10 cm Length of gas jar with water before igniting candle = M 1 - M 2 = 14- 10 = 4 cm Length of gas jar with water after igniting candle = M 3 = 8 cm Length of gas jar without water after igniting candle = M 1 - M 3 = 10 -8 = 2 cm Explanation Candle burns in air. In a closed system(vessel),the candle continues to burn using the part of air that support burning/combustion. This is called the active part of air .The candle goes off/extinguished when all the active part of air is used up.The level of the water rises to occupy the space /volume occupied by the used active part of air. The experiment is better when very dilute sodium/potassium hydroxide is used instead of water . Dilute Potassium/ sodium hydroxide absorb Carbon(IV)oxide gas that come out from burning/combustion of candle stick. From the experiment above the % composition of the: (i)active part of air can be calculated: M 2 - M 3 x 100% => 10 - 8 x 100% = 20% M 2 10cm (ii)inactive part of air can be calculated: 100% - 20% = 80% // M 3 => 8 x 100% = 80% 2 ----- #### [M] 2 [10cm ] **(b)To find the composition of active part of air using heated copper turnings. ** Procedure Clamp a completely packed/filled open ended glass tube with copper turnings. Seal the ends with glass/cotton wool. Label two graduated syringes as A and B Push out air from syringe A. Pull in air into syringe B. Attach both syringe A and B on opposite ends of the glass tube. Determine and record the volume of air in syringe B V 1 . Heat the glass tube strongly for about three minutes. Push all the air slowly from syringe B to syringe A as heating continues. Push all the air slowly from syringe A back to syringe B and repeatedly back and forth. After about ten minutes, determine the new volume of air in syringe B V 2 Set up of apparatus **Sample observations** Colour change from brown to black Volume of air in syringe B before heating V 1 = 158.0cm3 Volume of air in syringe B after heating V 2 = 127.2cm3 Volume of air in syringe B used by copper V 1 - V 2 = 30.8cm3 **Sample questions** **1.What is the purpose of ** **(i) glass/cotton wool ** 3 ----- #### To prevent/stop copper turnings from being blown into the syringe/out of the glass tube **(ii) passing air through the glass tube repeatedly ** To ensure all the active part of air is used up **(iii) passing air through the glass tube slowly ** To allow enough time of contact beteewn the active part of and the heated copper turnings. **2. State and explain the observations made in the glass tube. ** Colour change from brown to black Brown copper metal reacts with the active part of air/oxygen to form black copper(II)oxide. Chemical equation Copper + Oxygen -> Copper(II)oxide 2Cu(s) + O 2 (g) -> 2CuO(s) The reaction reduces the amount/volume of oxygen in syringe B leaving the inactive part of air. Copper only react with oxygen when heated. **3. Calculate the % of ** **(i)active part of air ** % active part of air = V 1 - V 2 x 100% => 30.8cm3 x 100% = 19.493 % V 1 [158.0cm3 ] **(ii) inactive part of air ** Method 1 % inactive part of air = V 2 x 100% => 127.2cm3 x 100% = 80.506 % V 1 158.0cm3 Method 2 % inactive part of air = 100% -% active part of air => 100 % - 19.493 % = 80.507 % **4.The % of active part of air is theoretically higher than the above while % of ** **inactive part of air is theoretically lower than the above. Explain. ** Not all the active part of air reacted with copper **5.State the main gases that constitute: ** **(a)active part of air. ** 4 ----- #### Oxygen (b) inactive part of air Nitrogen, carbon(IV)oxide and noble gases **6.If the copper turnings are replaced with magnesium shavings the % of ** **active part of air obtained is extraordinary very high. Explain. ** Magnesium is more reactive than copper. The reaction is highly exothermic. It generates enough heat for magnesium to react with both oxygen and nitrogen in the air. A white solid/ash mixture of Magnesium oxide and Magnesium nitride is formed. This considerably reduces the volume of air left after the experiment. Chemical equation Magnesium + Oxygen -> magnesium (II)oxide 2Mg(s) + O 2 (g) -> 2MgO(s) Magnesium + Nitrogen -> magnesium (II)nitride 3Mg(s) + N 2 (g) -> Mg 3 N 2 (s) **(c)To find the composition of active part of air using alkaline pyrogallol. ** Procedure Measure about 2cm3 of dilute sodium hydroxide into a graduated gas jar.

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but remain chemically unchanged at the end of the reaction. Potassium Chlorate(V) decomposes slowly to form potassium chloride and Oxygen gas. A little Manganese(IV)oxide speeds up the rate of decomposition by reducing the time taken for a given volume of Oxygen to be produced. **(c)Uses of Oxygen ** 1. Oxygen is put in cylinders for use where natural supply is not sufficiently enough. This is mainly in: (i)Mountain climbing/Mountaineering-at high altitudes, the concentration of air/oxygen is low. Mountain climbers must therefore carry their own supply of oxygen for breathing. (ii) Deep sea diving-Deep sea divers carry their own supply of Oxygen. (iii) Saving life in hospitals for patients with breathing problems and during anaethesia. 2. A mixture of oxygen and some other gases produces a flame that is very hot. (i) Oxy-acetyline/ethyne flame is produced when Ethyne/acetylene gas is burnt in pure oxygen. The flame has a temperature of about 3000 [o] C.It is used for welding /cutting metals . (ii) Oxy-hydrogen flame is produced when Hydrogen is burn in pure oxygen. The flame has a temperature of about 2000 [o] C.It is used also for welding /cutting metals . 3. Oxy-hydrogen mixture is used as rocket fuel 4. A mixture of charcoal, petrol and liquid Oxygen is an explosive. **(d) Chemical properties of Oxygen /combustion. ** Oxygen is a very reactive non metal. Many elements react with oxygen through burning to form a group of compounds called Oxides . Burning/combustion is the reaction of Oxygen with an element/substances. Reaction in which a substance is added oxygen is called Oxidation reaction . Burning/combustion is an example of an oxidation reaction. 11 ----- #### Most non metals burns in Oxygen/air to form an Oxide which in solution / dissolved in water is acidic in nature.

Some metals have higher affinity for Oxygen than others. A metal/element with higher affinity for oxygen is placed higher/on top of the one less affinity. **The complete reactivity series of metals/elements** 19 ----- #### **Least reactive ** |Potassium|K| |---|---| |Sodium|Na| |Calcium|Ca| |Magnesium|Mg| |Aluminium|Al| |Carbon|C| |Zinc|Zn| |Iron|Fe| |Tin|Sn| |Lead|Pb| |Hydrogen|H| |Copper|Cu| |Mercury|Hg| |Silver|Ag| |Gold|Au| |Platinum|Pt| Metals compete for combined Oxygen. A metal/element with higher affinity for oxygen removes Oxygen from a metal lower in the reactivity series/less affinity for Oxygen. When a metal/element gains / acquire Oxygen, the process is called Oxidation . When a metal/element donate/lose Oxygen, the process is called Reduction . An element/metal/compound that undergo Oxidation is called Reducing agent . An element/metal/compound that undergo Reduction is called Oxidizing agent . A reaction in which both Oxidation and Reduction take place is called a Redox reaction. Redox reaction between Magnesium and copper(II)Oxide Procedure Place about 2g of copper (II)oxide in a crucible with a lid. Place another 2g of Magnesium powder into the crucible. Mix thoroughly. Cover the crucible with lid. Heat strongly for five minutes. Allow the mixture to cool. Open the lid. Observe. Observation Colour change from black to brown. White solid power formed. Explanation Magnesium is higher in the reactivity series than Copper. It has therefore higher affinity for Oxygen than copper. 20 ----- #### When a mixture of copper(II)oxide and Magnesium is heated, Magnesium reduces copper(II)oxide to brown copper metal and itself oxidized to Magnesium oxide. Magnesium is the reducing agent because it undergoes oxidation process. Copper(II)oxide is the oxidizing agent because it undergo redox reduction process. The mixture should be cooled before opening the lid to prevent hot brown copper from being reoxidized back to black copper(II)oxide. The reaction of Magnesium and Copper(II)oxide is a reaction Chemical equation 1. Copper (II)oxide + Magnesium -> Magnesium oxide + Copper (black) (white ash/solid) (brown) CuO (s) + Mg(s) -> Mg O (s) + Cu (s) (Oxidizing Agent) (Reducing Agent) 2. Zinc (II)oxide + Magnesium -> Magnesium oxide + Zinc (yellow when hot) (white ash/solid) (grey) ZnO (s) + Mg(s) -> Mg O (s) + Zn (s) (Oxidizing agent) (Reducing agent) 3. Zinc (II)oxide + Carbon -> Carbon(IV) oxide gas + Zinc (yellow when hot) (colourless gas) (grey) ZnO (s) + C(s) -> C O 2 (g) + Zn (s) (Oxidizing agent) (Reducing agent) The reactivity series is used during extraction of metals from their ore.An ore is a rock containing mineral element which can be extracted for commercial purposes. Most metallic ores occur naturally as: (i) ox ides combined with Oxygen (ii) sulph ides combined with Sulphur (iii) carbon ates combined with carbon and Oxygen. Metallic ores that naturally occur as metallic sulphides are first roasted in air to form the corresponding oxide. Sulphur(IV)oxide gas is produced. e.g. Copper(I) sulphide + Oxygen -> Copper(I)Oxide + Sulphur(IV)oxide 21 ----- #### Cu 2 S(s) + O 2 (g) -> 2Cu(s) + SO 2 (g) Zinc(II) sulphide + Oxygen -> Zinc(II)Oxide + Sulphur(IV)oxide ZnS(s) + O 2 (g) -> Zn(s) + SO 2 (g) Lead(II) sulphide + Oxygen -> Lead(II)Oxide + Sulphur(IV)oxide PbS(s) + O 2 (g) -> Pb(s) + SO 2 (g) Iron(II) sulphide + Oxygen -> Iron(II)Oxide + Sulphur(IV)oxide FeS(s) + O 2 (g) -> Fe(s) + SO 2 (g) Metallic ores that naturally occur as metallic carbonates are first heated in air. They decompose /split to form the corresponding oxide and produce Carbon (IV) oxide gas. e.g. Copper (II)carbonate -> Copper(II)oxide + Carbon(IV)oxide CuCO 3 (s) -> CuO(s) + CO 2 (g) Zinc (II)carbonate -> Zinc(II)oxide + Carbon(IV)oxide ZnCO 3 (s) -> ZnO(s) + CO 2 (g) Lead (II)carbonate -> Lead(II)oxide + Carbon(IV)oxide PbCO 3 (s) -> PbO(s) + CO 2 (g) Iron(II)carbonate -> Iron(II)oxide + Carbon(IV)oxide FeCO 3 (s) -> FeO(s) + CO 2 (g) Metallic ores 22 ----- 1 ## **WATER AND HYDROGEN ** #### A.WATER Pure water is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, neutral liquid . Pure water does not exist in nature but naturally in varying degree of purity. The main sources of water include rain, springs, borehole, lakes, seas and oceans: Water is generally used for the following purposes: (i)drinking by animals and plants. (ii)washing clothes. (iii)bleaching and dyeing. (iv) generating hydroelectric power. (v)cooling industrial processes. Water dissolves many substances/solutes. It is therefore called universal solvent . It contains about 35% dissolved Oxygen which support aquatic fauna and flora. Water naturally exist in three phases/states solid ice, liquid water and gaseous water vapour. The three states of water are naturally interconvertible . The natural interconvertion of the three phases/states of water forms the water cycle. condensation CLOUDS (Water in solid state) Precipitation RAIN Evaporation(Water in gaseous state) SPRING, RIVERS,WELLS. OCEAN,LAKES,SEAS(water as liquid ) ----- 2 #### Liquid water in land, lakes, seas and oceans use the solar/sun energy to evaporate/vapourize to form water vapour/ gas . Solar/sun energy is also used during transpiration by plants and respiration by animals. During evaporation, the water vapour rises up the earths surface. Temperatures decrease with height above the earth surface increase. Water vapour therefore cools as it rises up. At a height where it is cold enough to below 373Kelvin/100 [o] C Water vapour looses enough energy to form tiny droplets of liquid. The process by which a gas/water vapour changes to a liquid is called condensation/liquidification . On further cooling, the liquid looses more energy to form ice/solid. The process by which a liquid/water changes to a ice/solid is called freezing/solidification . Minute/tiny ice/solid particles float in the atmosphere and coalesce/join together to form clouds. When the clouds become too heavy they fall to the earths surface as rain/snow as the temperature increase with the fall. **Interconversion of the three phases/states water ** Gas/water vapour Evaporation Liquidification/ /boiling/vapourization condensation Liquid/Water Melting Freezing liquidification Solidification Solid/Ice Pure water has : (i) fixed/constant/sharp freezing point/melting point of 273K/0 [o] C (ii) fixed/constant/sharp boiling point of 373K/100 [o] C at sea level /1 atmosphere pressure (iii) fixed density of 1gcm [-3] #### Gas/water vapour #### Liquid/Water #### Solid/Ice ----- 3 #### This is the criteria of identifying pure/purity of water. Whether a substance is water can be determined by using the following methods: **a)To test for presence of water using anhydrous copper(II)suphate(VI) ** **Procedure. ** Put about 2g of anhydrous copper(II)sulphate(VI)crystals into a clean test tube. Add three drops of tap water. Repeat the procedure using distilled water. **Observation. ** Colour changes from white to blue **Explanation. ** Anhydrous copper(II)sulphate(VI)is white. On adding water, anhydrous copper(II)sulphate(VI) gains/reacts with water to form hydrated copper(II) sulphate(VI). Hydrated copper(II) sulphate(VI) is blue . Hydrated copper(II) sulphate(VI) contain water of crystallization. The change of white anhydrous copper(II)sulphate(VI) to blue hydrated copper(II) sulphate(VI) is a confirmatory test for the presence of water **Chemical equation. ** Anhydrous Hydrated copper(II)sulphate(VI) + Water -> copper (II)sulphate(VI) (white) ( blue ) CuSO 4 (s) + 5H 2 O(l) -> CuSO 4 .5H 2 O(s) **b)To test for presence of water using anhydrous cobalt(II)chloride ** **Procedure. ** Put about 5cm3 of water into a clean test tube. Dip a dry anhydrous cobalt(II)chloride paper into the test tube. Repeat the procedure using distilled water. **Observation. ** Colour changes from blue to pink **Explanation. ** Anhydrous cobalt(II)chloride is blue . On adding water, anhydrous cobalt(II)chloride gains/reacts with water to form hydrated cobalt(II) chloride. Hydrated cobalt(II)chloride is pink . Hydrated cobalt (II)chloride contain water of crystallization. ----- 4 #### The change of blue anhydrous cobalt(II)chloride to pink hydrated cobalt(II)chloride is a confirmatory test for the presence of water **Chemical equation. ** Anhydrous Hydrated cobalt(II)chloride + Water -> cobalt (II)chloride ( Blue ) ( pink ) CoCl 2 (s) + 5H 2 O(l) -> CoCl 2 .5H 2 O(s) **Burning a candle in air ** Most organic substances/fuels burn in air to produce water. Carbon(IV)oxide gas is also produced if the air is sufficient/excess. Procedure Put about 2g of anhydrous copper(II)sulphate(VI)crystals in a boiling tube. Put about 5cm3 of lime water in a boiling tube. Light a small candle stick. Place it below an inverted thistle/filter funnel Collect the products of the burning candle by setting the apparatus as below Set up of apparatus Observation The sunction pump pulls the products of burning into the inverted funnel. Colour of anhydrous copper(II) sulphate(VI)changes from white to blue. A white precipitate is formed in the lime water/calcium hydroxide. ----- 5 #### Explanation When a candle burn it forms a water and carbon(IV)oxide. Water turns anhydrous copper(II) sulphate(VI)changes from white to blue . Carbon(IV)oxide gas forms white precipitate when bubbled in lime water/calcium hydroxide. Since: (i)hydrogen in the wax burn to form water Hydrogen + Oxygen -> Water (from candle) (from the air) 2H 2 (g) + O 2 (g) -> 2H 2 O (g/l) (ii) carbon in the wax burn to form carbon(IV)oxide Hydrogen + Oxygen -> Water (from candle) (from the air) C(s) + O 2 (g) -> CO 2 (g) The candle before burning therefore contained only Carbon and Hydrogen only. A compound made up of hydro gen and carbon is called Hydro carbon . A candle is a hydrocarbon. Other hydrocarbons include: Petrol, diesel, Kerosene, and Laboratory gas. Hydrocarbons burn in air to form water and carbon(IV)oxide gas. Hydrocarbons + Oxygen -> Water + Oxygen **Water pollution ** Water pollution take place when undesirable substances are added into the water. Sources of water pollution include: (i)Industrial chemicals being disposed into water bodies like rivers, lakes and oceans. (ii)Dicharging untreated /raw sewage into water bodies. (iii)Leaching of insecticides/herbicides form agricultural activities into water bodies. (iv)Discharging non-biodegradable detergents after domestic and industrial use into water bodies. (v)Petroleum oil spilling by ships and oil refineries (vi)Toxic/poisonous gases from industries dissolving in rain . (vii) Acidic gases from industries dissolving in rain to form acid rain (viii)Discharging hot water into water bodies.This reduces the quantity of dissolved Oxygen in the water killing the aquatic fauna and flora. ----- 6 #### Water pollution can be reduced by: (i)reducing the use of agricultural fertilizers and chemicals in agricultural activities. (ii)use of biological control method instead of insecticides and herbicides (iii)using biodegradable detergents **Reaction of metals with water ** Some metals react with water while others do not. The reaction of metals with water depend on the reativity series. The higher the metal in the reactivity series the more reactive the metal with water .The following experiments shows the reaction of metals with cold water and water vapour/steam.

Colour of phenolphthalein turns pink Colour of litmus solution turns blue Colour of methy orange solution turns Orange Colour of universal indicator solution turns blue Explanation Sodium is less dense than water. Sodium floats on water and vigorously react to form an alkaline solution of sodium hydroxide and producing hydrogen gas. Sodium is thus stored in paraffin to prevent contact with water. Chemical equation Sodium + Water -> Sodium hydroxide + Hydrogen gas 2Na(s) + 2H 2 O(l) -> 2NaOH(aq) + H 2 (g) To collect hydrogen gas, Sodium metal is forced to sink to the bottom of the trough/beaker by wrapping it in wire gauze/mesh. ----- 7 #### Potassium is more reactive than Sodium.

Copper(II)sulphate(VI)solution act as catalyst. ----- 13 #### Chemical equation ( a ) Zinc + Hydrochloric acid -> Zinc chloride + Hydrogen Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) -> ZnCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g) Ionic equation Zn (s) + 2H [+ ] (aq) -> Zn [2+ ] (aq) + H 2 (g) Zinc + Sulphuric(VI)acid -> Zinc Sulphate(VI) + Hydrogen Zn(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) -> ZnSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) Ionic equation Zn (s) + 2H [+ ] (aq) -> Zn [2+ ] (aq) + H 2 (g) ( b ) Chemical equation Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid -> Magnesium chloride + Hydrogen Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -> MgCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g) Ionic equation Mg (s) + 2H [+ ] (aq) -> Mg [2+ ] (aq) + H 2 (g) Magnesium + Sulphuric(VI)acid -> Magnesium Sulphate(VI) + Hydrogen Mg(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) -> MgSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) Ionic equation Mg (s) + 2H [+ ] (aq) -> Mg [2+ ] (aq) + H 2 (g) ( c ) Chemical equation Iron + Hydrochloric acid -> Iron(II)chloride + Hydrogen Fe(s) + 2HCl(aq) -> FeCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g) Ionic equation Fe (s) + 2H [+ ] (aq) -> Fe [2+ ] (aq) + H 2 (g) Iron + Sulphuric(VI)acid -> Iron(II) Sulphate(VI) + Hydrogen Fe(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) -> FeSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) Ionic equation Fe (s) + 2H [+ ] (aq) -> Fe [2+ ] (aq) + H 2 (g) **Note ** 1.Hydrogen cannot be prepared from reaction of: (i)Nitric(V)acid and a metal. Nitric(V)acid is a strong oxidizing agent. It oxidizes hydrogen gas to water . (ii)dilute sulphuric(VI)acid with calcium/Barium/Lead because Calcium sulphate(VI),Barium sulphate(VI) and Lead(II)sulphate(VI) salts formed are insoluble. Once formed, they cover/coat the unreacted calcium/Barium/Lead ----- 14 #### stopping further reaction and producing very small amount/volume of hydrogen gas. (iii)dilute acid with sodium/potassium. The reaction is explosive. **Properties of Hydrogen gas ** **(a)Physical properties** 1. Hydrogen is a neutral, colourless and odourless gas. When mixed with air it has a characteristic pungent choking smell 2. It is insoluble in water thus can be collected over water. 3. It is the lightest known gas. It can be transferred by inverting one gas jar over another. **(b)Chemical properties.** **(i)Burning ** I. Hydrogen does not support burning/combustion. When a burning splint is inserted into a gas jar containing Hydrogen, the flame is extinguished /put off. II. Pure dry hydrogen burn with a blue quiet flame to form water. When a stream of pure dry hydrogen is ignited, it catches fire and continues to burn with a blue flame. III. Impure (air mixed with) hydrogen burns with an explosion. Small amount/ volume of air mixed with hydrogen in a test tube produce a small explosion as a pop sound. This is the confirmatory test for the presence of Hydrogen gas. A gas that burns with a pop sound is confirmed to be Hydrogen. **(ii)Redox in terms of Hydrogen transfer ** Redox can also be defined in terms of Hydrogen transfer. (i)Oxidation is removal of Hydrogen (ii)Reduction is addition of Hydrogen (iii)Redox is simultaneous addition and removal of Hydrogen **Example ** When a stream of dry hydrogen gas is passed through black copper (II) oxide, hydrogen gas gains the oxygen from copper(II)oxide. Black copper (II) oxide is reduced to brown copper metal. Black copper(II)oxide os thus the Oxidizing agent. Hydrogen gas is oxidized to Water. Hydrogen is the Reducing agent. Set up of apparatus ----- 15 #### ( a )Chemical equation (i) In glass tube Copper(II)Oxide + Hydrogen -> Copper + Hydrogen gas (oxidizing agent) (reducing agent) ( black ) (brown) CuO (s) + H 2 (g) -> Cu(s) + H 2 O(l) (ii)when excess Hydrogen is burning. Oxygen + Hydrogen -> Water O 2 (g) + 2H 2 (g) -> 2H 2 O(l) ( b )Chemical equation (i) In glass tube Lead(II)Oxide + Hydrogen -> Lead + Hydrogen gas (oxidizing agent) (reducing agent) (brown when hot/ (grey) yellow when cool) PbO (s) + H 2 (g) -> Pb(s) + H 2 O(l) (ii)when excess Hydrogen is burning. Oxygen + Hydrogen -> Water O 2 (g) + 2H 2 (g) -> 2H 2 O(l) ( c )Chemical equation (i) In glass tube Iron(III)Oxide + Hydrogen -> Iron + Hydrogen gas (oxidizing agent) (reducing agent) ----- 16 #### (Dark grey) (grey) Fe 2 O 3 (s) + 3H 2 (g) -> Fe(s) + 3H 2 O(l) (ii)when excess Hydrogen is burning. Oxygen + Hydrogen -> Water O 2 (g) + 2H 2 (g) -> 2H 2 O(l) **(iii) Water as an Oxide as Hydrogen** Burning is a reaction of an element with Oxygen. The substance formed when an element burn in air is the oxide of the element. When hydrogen burns, it reacts/ combines with Oxygen to form the oxide of Hydrogen .The oxide of Hydrogen is called water. Hydrogen is first dried because a mixture of Hydrogen and air explode. The gas is then ignited .The products condense on a cold surface/flask containing a freezing mixture. A freezing mixture is a mixture of water and ice. The condensed products are collected in a receiver as a colourless liquid. **Tests ** ( a ) When about 1g of white anhydrous copper (II)sulphate(VI)is added to a sample of the liquid,it turns to blue . This confirms the liquid formed is water. ( b ) When blue anhydrous cobalt (II)chloride paper is dipped in a sample of the liquid,it turns to pink . This confirms the liquid formed is water. ----- 17 #### ( c )When the liquid is heated to boil, its boiling point is 100 [o] C at sea level/one atmosphere pressure. This confirms the liquid is pure water. **Uses of Hydrogen gas ** **1. Hydrogenation/Hardening of unsaturated vegetable oils to saturated ** **fats/margarine. ** When Hydrogen is passed through unsaturated compounds in presence of Nickel catalyst and about 150 [o] C, they become saturated. Most vegetable oil are unsaturated liquids at room temperature. They become saturated and hard through hydrogenation. **2. In weather forecast balloons. ** Hydrogen is the lightest known gas . Meteorological data is collected for analysis by sending hydrogen filled weather balloons to the atmosphere. The data collected is then used to forecast weather conditions. **3.In the Haber process for the manufacture of Ammonia ** Hydrogen is mixed with Nitrogen in presence of Iron catalyst to form Ammonia gas. Ammonia gas is a very important raw material for manufacture of agricultural fertilizers. **4.In the manufacture of Hydrochloric acid. ** Limited volume/amount of Hydrogen is burnt in excess chlorine gas to form Hydrogen chloride gas. Hydrogen chloride gas is dissolved in water to form Hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid is used in pickling/washing metal surfaces. **5. As rocket fuel. ** Fixed proportions of Hydrogen and Oxygen when ignited explode violently producing a lot of energy/heat.This energy is used to power/propel a rocket to space. **6. In oxy-hydrogen flame for welding. ** A cylinder containing Hydrogen when ignited in pure Oxygen from a second cylinder produces a flame that is very hot. It is used to cut metals and welding. ----- 18 #### **Sample revision questions ** **1.A colourless liquid was added anhydrous copper(II)sulphate(VI) which ** **turned blue. ** **(a)Why is it wrong to conclude the liquid was pure water? ** Anhydrous copper(II)sulphate(VI) test for presence of water. Purity of water is determined from freezing/melting/boiling point. **(b)Write an equation for the reaction that take place with anhydrous ** **copper(II)sulphate(VI) ** Anhydrous copper(II)sulphate(VI) + Water -> hydrated copper(II)sulphate(VI) CuSO 4 (s) + 5H 2 O(l) -> CuSO 4 .5H 2 O(s) **(c)(i)Which other compound would achieve the same results as anhydrous ** **copper(II)sulphate(VI) ** Anhydrous cobalt (II)chloride/CoCl 2 .6H 2 O ** (ii)Write the equation for the reaction** Anhydrous cobalt (II)chloride + Water -> hydrated cobalt (II)chloride CoCl 2 (s) + 6H 2 O(l) -> CoCl 2 .6H 2 O (s) **(d)Complete the equation ** **(i) Sulphur(VI)oxide + Water -> Sulphuric(VI)acid** **(ii) Sulphur(IV)oxide + Water -> Sulphuric(IV)acid ** **(iii) Carbon(IV)oxide + Water -> Carbonic(IV)acid ** **(iv) Nitrogen(IV)oxide + Water -> Nitric(V)acid ** **(v) Phosphorus(V)oxide + Water -> Phosphoric(V)acid ** **(vi) Sodium oxide + Water -> Sodium hydroxide ** **(vi) Sodium peroxide + Water -> Sodium hydroxide ** **2.

As you revise oral literature,therefore,you should bear in mind that Oral Literatureis spoken,generallyperformedand oftendramatizedby a skilled performer.That meansthatifyou are reading a narrative forinstance,youhave to bearin mind thatthenarrativewasactuallyperformedtoaliveaudienceasopposedtoanovelor a shortstorywhoseoriginalformatwasthewritten form.Youshould alsoco nsiderthatthetargetaudienceforaparticularpieceoforalsharesa common social, culturalandhistoricalbackground.Theycould,forinstancebemembersofa particularethniccommunityorevenmembersofthesamevillageorclan. Oralliterature:Amisnomer?

Exampleoflegend THEARINKON(Maasai) Therewereonceapeopleknown astheilarinkonwho wereownersoftheland thatthe Maasaioccupied aftertheirascentfrom the Kerio escarpment.These people had a leaderwho was amighty giant.Sincehe wasvery much feared,it wasdeemed wisetoavoid him forfearthat uponthe slightest provocation;he mightdecidetowipeoutthewholeMaasaipopulation.ButtheArinkonremained resentful of the Maasai occupation, spreading over their land. They sent messagestellingthem toleave. Butthe Maasaiwere unwilling to leave the richly endowed country,having just recovered from theformidableascentoftheescarpment.Atthesametime,they were reluctant to fight peoplewhose might they were unsure of,especially havingobservedsignsofgreatphysicalmightintheirleader.Theyinsteadplayed tricksonthem.Theystartedbybribingthem withgiftsofcattle,sheep and various otheritems,with the hope ofbeing permitted to stay on.Butthese people developed a habitofpestering theMaasaiwith theintention ofgetting them fed up,hopingtomakethem leave,eithertowherevertheyhadcomefrom orelsewhere.

THEVULTUREANDTHEHEN Long ago the hen and thevulture used to live on excellentterms,helping each otheratanytimetheyneededahandtoprocuretheirdomesticnecessities. One day,the hen thoughtofborrowing a razorfrom the vulture to shave their little ones.Theshaving was already much overdue,butitcouldntbe helped, because she had no razor. Andwas depending on the kindness of her neighbours.Sothehenwenttoseevultureandsaid, Dearvulture,Ishould like to borrow yourrazor;mine was lostmonthsago.My little ones arelookingvery ugly,andalso veryuntidy,withtheirlong,unkempt,o vergrownhair. Thevulturelistened tothehen with greatconcern,afterashortsilence,said,Dear hen Icannotrefuse you thisfavour.Tomorrow perhapsImightneed yourhelp aswell,and wemusthelpeachother.However,you mustrememberone thing.

Thank you,brothervulture,Iquite understands whatyou say,and Iam very gratefultoyou.Illbringitbacktoyou. The hen was very gad ofthe favourand as soonas shearrived home,made arrangements to beshaved by another woman.The following morning she shavedherlittleones,sothatthewholefamilywasnowshininglikethemoon.The workover,sheputitinaleatherpurse,whichwashanginginacornerofthehut. Thedayspassed and passed awaylikethewaterunderabridge,butthen hen neverthoughtagain ofreturningtherazortothe vulture.Sheforgotitcompletely. The vulturegrew impatient,and deeply resented in his heartthe unkindness,nay theingratitudeofthehen.Pressed bynecessity,hedecidedtopersonallygotothe henanddemandhisrazor. Ohdearvulture,saidthenhenwithconfusionandgreatregret,Forgiveme;Iam so sorryformynegligencereallyintendto returnyourrazorverysoon,butIputit my leatherpurse andforgotaboutitcompletely.Letmegoand bringit;youw3ill haveitinaminute. Yes,Iknow youareaforgetfulcreature;butlookatthedamageyouhaveme. You havedeprived meofmysustenance formanydays.Mindyou,ifyou have lostit,youwillpayforitandverydearly,saidthevulture.Thehenrushedintothe housetofetchtherazor.Sheplungedherhand into the leatherbag,butalas!It wasempty;therewasnorazorinit.Shewasveryshockedattheunpleasantdisco very.Shestartedsearchingonthefloortosee ifbyanychanceithaddroppedfrom thebag,buttherewasno finding it.Shelookedunderthechildrensbed,rearthefir e-stones,inthestore;buttherewasnosignofit.Have mercy onme!Iwillsearch better;Iam readytodemolish myhutaltogether,andarch foritdiligentlyuntilI finditandreturnittoyou. Itoldyoutobecareful,andIrepeatitagain;Iwantmyrazorback!Butmindyou, IwanttheveryrazorIgaveyou,andsosubstitute. The poor hen spentalldaysearching and searching,butnothing came to.She demolished herhut,andstartedsearchingin the roofgrass,among therubble of thewalls,betweenthepoles,intheashesandevenintherubbishpit;butnothingwas found. The following day the vulture came to see the results ofthe searching.He found thehen stillscratching theground among theheap ofdrygrassand ox dung;butno razorwas yetdiscovered.Iam very sorry dearhen,said the vulture,butnow Icannotwaitanylongerwithoutcompensation formyrazor.For todayyoumustgivemeachick.TomorrowIwillreturnandseewhathashappenedin themeantime. So the vulture flewawaywith a chickgripped within itstalons underits breast. The followingday he returned to the hen.She was stillscratching the ground; butshecouldntseetherazor. Anotherchick wentaway with the vulture.And the samething happened in the followingdaysuntiltoday.Thatis the reason why the hen is always scratching the ground,and the vultureswoopingon chicks even inourdays.Thehen is alwayssearchingfortherazor,andthevulturecompensatinghimselfforitsloss.

(b)Compactness:Theyarebriefandcompressed. (c) Word play;they heavily depend on word arrangement and word play, includinguseoffigurativelanguageincludingmetaphors,similespersonificationand otherimages.

PROVERBS Whatisaproverb? Aproverbcanbedefinedasaterse,pitystatementcontainingfolkwisdom
Proverbsareconsidered to bethemarkofadultwisdom and experienceitisno wonder thatthemost profound discussions and pieces of advice in many communitiesareconductedanddeliveredinproverbs. In mosttraditionalsocieties,disputes and judicialdecisions were carried outin proverbs. Proverbs areaproductoftheexperiences ofthe people,experiences some of which have beenlearned the hard way.Proverbs therefore revealwhatpeople adore,and whattheydespise.Astudyoftheproverbsofacertaincommunitywill thereforehelpusappreciatethecommunitysbeliefs,attitudesandpointsofview.
Characteristicsofproverbs (a)Proverbsareshortandtothepoint
(b)Proverbsrevealapeopleswisdom,andphilosophyof life.Proverbscallour attentiontothegeneralrealityaroundus.Themessageorwisdom oftheproverb isthecollective propertyofthesocietyin which itisused.Itisrareto know themakerofa particularproverb.Proverbsonlymakesensewhentheydirectlyappliedtospecific situationsorproblems.Thevalueofaproverb thereforeliesin itsapplicabilityto a concrete situation,how itassesses itand possiblysuggests a solution to it. Often we findproverbs thatca beappliedto differentsituations with different interpretations.This mayexplain the existence ofproverbswhichatfirst,appearto contradicteachother. E.g.Bellshouldbemanytomakeasound&Ahoardofratsdoesnotdigitselfahole. Proverbsshould therefore be interpreted incontext.A scholarwho deals with proverbsoutofcontextshould always try as a partofhis interpretation,to r econstructthe situation inwhichtheproverbwouldbe applied.A proverb is a kind of conversation shorthand.The meaning of a proverb is usuallyHiddenand alwayshastobeworkedout.
(c)Proverbsappearinfixedpatternsnearlyallthetimeandthereislimitedscope onthepartoftheperformer.
(d)Proverbsaresayingsthathavebeenacceptedbyandthereforepartofthesociety.
(e)Proverbs draw theirmaterialand images from a particularenvironmentor society.Henceproverbsfrom the maasaiforexample,willdifferin theiruse of images from thoseoftheLuhyaeventhoughthe maybecommunicatingthesame message.

Dueto thefunctionsmentioned in(2) above,riddlesarecommon among childrenwhile proverbsareusedmainlybyadults. Tonguetwisters Tongue twisters are intended to test the speakers fluency.They require the speaker to utterwithout hesitation or faltering, a sequence of words with particularproblemsofarticulation. These wordsthemselvesusuallyhave basic meaning usuallyofa jocularnature, and partoffunofperformingtongue twisters consists in thelikelihoodthat distortion ofutterance, duetoarticulationproblem willresult indistortion or confusionofmeaning. Tongue twisterstease ourearsandourbrains.One hasto beaverygoodlistener inorderto getthesoundsofa tonguetwister correctly.Onemustalso havea good memory to repeat itaccurately.Tongue twisters also requirealot of concentration.Thisis becauseone ofthe mainproblems in performing them is thatwhattheysayneed notmakesimple,logicalsense.Theemphasisismainlyo ntherattleofsounds.

KEYMETHODSOFCOLLECTINGORALLITERATUREMATERIALS Itis importantthatwe distinguish the difference between collecting and recor ding.Collectingreferstothemethodsusedbytheresearchertoelicitinformationfrom the informantsorartisteswhile recording refers to the measures taken by the researcherinensuringthatthematerialcollectedispreservedforfuturereference. Someofthemethodsusedincollectingoralliteraturematerialsinclude: ThequestionnaireThisrefers to alistofquestions thatwillleadto gathering impo rtantpiecesofinformationfrom varioussources.Thequestionnaireisusefulin,for instance,in getting theinformantsbiographicalbackground.Itcanbeadministered ineitheroftwoways: -Theinformantfillsitoutpersonally. -Thestudentfillsitinashe/sheinterviewstheinformant. Thequestionnaireisusefulin gathering information on genresthatdo notcall for specificoccasions to be performed.These include proverbs and tongue twisters.The only disadvantagewiththequestionnaire isthatitcannotbeusedto collectsongssinceitcannotcapturethevisualandaudioeffectsofsongs.
Theinterview Thisinvolvesmeeting thesourceofthe information faceto faceand verbally seekingtherequiredinformation.Aninterview canfollow astructuredpattern(the studentmovingsystematicallythrougha listofquestions)orbeunstructuredand info rmal (the studentconductsa generalconversation to probe forspecific informationwhilerecordingtheinformationontapeorbywriting.) Interviews are important especially if one wants to seek details about the personallife ofanartisteorincollectingproverbsand riddlesonecouldalso use interview tocollectnarratives.
Participation Taking part in the performance is much favoured method of collecting information because itgivesthestudentachancetoexperiencethespiritofthe actualperformance.Italsoenhancestherapportbetweenthestudentandthecommu nity.By joiningtheperformance,thestudentbridgesrelationalgaps and finds it easierto seekand getinformation in a freer atmosphere.Butthestudentmust ensure that participation does distract him/her from making a recording of material. Observation Unlikeparticipation,observation isa method bywhich thestudentstandsaloof and recordswhatis going on in the performance and in the communityin at large.Itisnecessarytoreinforcethismethodbyconductingfollow upinterviews onobservationsmadetodeepeninsightsandclarifyissues.

THEVULTUREANDTHEHEN Long ago the hen and thevulture used to live on excellentterms,helping each otheratanytimetheyneededahandtoprocuretheirdomesticnecessities. Oneday,thehenthoughtofborrowingarazorfrom thevultureto shavetheir little ones.Theshaving was already much overdue,butitcouldntbe helped, because she had no razor. Andwas depending on the kindness of her neighbours.Sothehenwenttoseevultureandsaid, Dearvulture,Ishould liketo borrow yourrazor;minewaslostmonthsago.My little ones arelookingvery ugly,andalso veryuntidy,withtheirlong,unkempt,o vergrownhair.

{"text": "**INTRODUCTION TO CHRISTIAN RELIGIOUS EDUCATION**
**THE IMPORTANCE OF LEARNING CRE** **Definition of Christian Religious Education (CRE)** Christian Religious Education is the study of Gods revelation to human beings through scriptures, the persons of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Why do schools study CRE? There are many reasons why schools study CRE. Some of the reasons are to: a) Enable you to develop a personal relationship with God. a) Help you to acquire basic principles of Christian living. b) Help you to develop a sense of self-respect and respect for others. c) Help you to develop positive attitudes and values, which help you to cope with challenges of life. d) Contribute to the moral and spiritual development of students. e) Help you to contribute positively to the transformation of an individual and the society as whole. f) Help you to identify answers to situations of life, including death and Eternal life. g) Help learners to identify answers to lifes questions. h) Promotes international consciousness. i) Help you to understand yourself. j) Promote cultural integration. k) Enable you to acquire a better understanding of God. l) Unite people. m) Guide you in choosing a career n) Help you to appreciate African religious heritage and other religions. **THE BIBLE** The Bible is the sacred book containing Gods revelation to people. It is the inspired word of God. It is the book through which God communi- cates with His people. **The Bible as the word of God** The Bible is the word of God because: a) The written scripture contain Gods word. b) Through the Bible God communicates his will to humans. c) It contains word written by inspired authors such as the prophets who were sent by God. d) God himself took part in the writing of the Bible. E.g. God is believed to have written the Ten Commandments e) It contains the history of salvation realized through Jesus Christ. f) The Word gives revelation to mysteries. g) The Bible contains a message of hope and reconciliation. h) It reveals that God controlled what was being written and what He inte- nded the writers to pass to the people. **The Bible as a library** The Bible is referred to as a library since it is a collection of inspired scri- ptures or books. The Bible contains 66 books. The Bible is divided into the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Old Testament contains 39 books while the New Testament contains 27 books. However, the Ro- man Catholic Church accepts 7 additional books referred to as Apocrypha or Deutero or canonical books. The word Apocrypha means hidden or secret. They are Esdras (1, 2), Tobit, Judith, Ecclesiaticus, Baarch and Maccabees. **Why the Bible is a library** Several studies show that: a) The Bible contains (66) book just like a library has many books. The Bible is a collection of books arranged in series. b) The Bible is a reference book for Christians. The authors of the Bible had a special spiritual guidance; hence each book was written for a pur- pose. c) The books were written at different times in history. d) The Bible has literary works. e) The Books written contain different topics. f) The Bible has different books written by different authors. g) The books of the Bible were written under different situations and cir- cumstances. **THE BIBLE: MAJOR DIVISIONS AND ITS BOOKS** **Major divisions of the Bible** The bible is divided into two major divisions. These are the Old Testame- nt with (39 Books) and the New Testament with (27 Books). The word Testament means covenant or agreement with God. The Old Testament books are divided into: a. Books of the law or the Pentateuch or Torah. b. Historical books. c. Poetic Books d. Prophetic books. **Law books or the Pentateuch or Torah** The books of law are (i) Genesis (ii) Exodus (iii) Leviticus (iv) Numbers (v) Deuteronomy. Moses wrote these books. They contain the law of God as it was given to the people of Israel through Moses. They also contain the history of the Israelites from creation to the time they entered the Promised Land. The author Moses is regarded as a lawgiver, teacher and prophet. **Historical books** There are the 12 consecutive books from (i) Joshua (ii) Judges (iii) Ruth (iv) 1, 2 Samuel (v) 1, 2 Kings (vi)1, 2 Chronicles (vii) Ezra (viii) Nehemiah (ix) Esther. These 12 books record the history of the Israelites. They also contain information about the life and achievements of some prophets, for example, the life history of Elisha and Elijah. **Exercise 1 Go through the 12 books and check page by page the** **names of other prophets.** **Poetic Books** The books are poetic in nature. The poetic books contain wise sayings, songs, and prayers. The poetic books are (1) Psalms which was written by David (ii) Proverbs (iii) Ecclesiastes (iv) Song of Solomon written by Solomon and (v) Job. **Prophetic books** These are divided into major and minor prophets. A prophet is a messe- nger of God, or Gods spokesperson. A prophet is a mouthpiece of God. Prophets pass information and messages from God to the people. They are messengers from God. Their messages from God concern the future. **Five Major Prophetic Books** I. The major prophetic books are by (i) Isaiah (ii) Jeremiah (iii) Lamentations (iv) Ezekiel and (v) Daniel. The books are named after the prophets who prophesied and probably wrote them. Jeremiah wrote lamentations. These prophets are called Major Prophets because they cover a longer period of time. Their prophe- cies are long, and they prophesied over a long period of time. Minor Prophets. There are 12 books of (1) Hosea (2 Joel (3) Amos (4) Obadiah (5) Jonah (6) Micah (7) Nahum (8) Habakkuk (9) Zephaniah (10) Haggai (11) Zechariah and (12) Malachi. These
II. **New Testament books are:** a. Biographical books or Gospels. b. Historical books (Acts of the Apostles). c. The Epistles. d. Apocalyptic or Prophetic book **a) Biographical book or Gospels** **Gospel**means**Good News**. The disciples of Jesus wrote the biographical books. They contain information about the birth, life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The biographical books are four. (i) Mathew Written by Mathew (ii) Mark Written by Mark (iii) Luke Written by Luke, the doctor and (iv) John written by John (the beloved disciple of Jesus Christ) **b) Historical books** There is one historical book, which is the Acts of the Apostles. Luke, the writer of the St. Lukes Gospel, wrote it. The book of Acts tells us the history of the early church. **c) The Epistles** There are two Epistles: Pauline Epistles and General Epistles. Pauline Epistles are letters written by Paul. They are 13 letters that Paul wrote to (1) Romans (2,3) 1, 2 Corinthians (4) Galatians (5) Ephesians (6) Philip- pines (7) Colossians (8, 9) 1, 2 Thessalonians (10, 11) 1, 2 Timothy (12) Titus and (13) Philemon. General Epistles are letters written to the church by other people. The letters are 8 in number. They (1) Hebrews (2) James (3,4) 1, 2 Peter (5,6,7) 1, 2, 3, John and (8) Jude **d) Apocalyptic or Prophetic book** This is the book of Revelation. It is the last book in the New Testament. It is different from other books. This is because it is prophetic of things to come. It is about the future. It was written by John the beloved disciple of Jesus Christ. **MAJOR BIBLE TRANSLATIONS FROM THE ORIGINAL LAN-** **GUAGES TO LOCAL LANGUAGES** These books of the Bible are accepted as the Canon of the Bible. The term Canon means Standard or guidance or rule. Translation means expression of books by words and pictures, poems and songs from one language to another. The Old Testament was originally written in Hebrew, the langua- ge of the Israelites. Then between 250 100 BC, it was translated to the Greek language. The Greek translation of the Bible was known as Septua- gint. This term refers to 70 translators. The Jews in dispersion or Diaspora used this translation. These were the Jews living outside Palestine. Between 386 420 A.D. Jerome, a great Christian Scholar, translated the entire bible from Greek into Latin, the language of the Romans. This tran- slation was called Vulgate. Christians used the Latin translation of the Bible up to the 16th century. During the reformation in the 16th Century, Christians were encouraged to use their own native languages in worship. From that time, the Bible was translated into English and German. As Christianity spread to different parts of the world, there was the need for translations of the Holy Bible into various languages. In 1804, the British formed the Foreign Bible Society, which translated the Bible into many languages. Johann Ludwig Krapf translated the New Testament into Kiswahili. This was the first Bible translation in East Africa. Since that time, the Bible Society of Kenya has translated the Bible into other languages such as Kikuyu in 1951, Kikamba in 1956, Kimeru in 1964, Kalenjin in 1968, and Luhya in 1974. By 1980 the Bible had been translated into 29 Kenyan languages. To date (2010) the Bible has been translated into 42 languages of Kenya. **Translation and versions used in Kenya today** Besides bible translation into several languages, there are many English translation versions, which are commonly used in Kenya. These are (i) King James Version (ii) Jerusalem Bible (iii) New International version (iv) English Bible (v) The Authorized Version (vi) Good News (vii) Revised Standard Version (viii) New King James Version (ix) Amplified Bible (x) The living Bible (xi) The African Bible (xii) Common Bible (xiii) Todays English Bible (xiv) American version among others. **Writing of the Bible** By 2010, the Bible Society of Kenya had translated the Bible into 42 Kenyan languages. The need to read the Bible led to writing of Bible reading materials to teach literacy in local languages. Those who wrote the Bible used different styles, and figures of speech to make their message vivid and clear. Several literary forms were used in the writing of the Bible. These are: **a. Poetry in Psalms** **Activity** **a) Read Psalms and notice the poetry used by David when he wrote** **psalms** **b) Read Job. Notice the rhythm of the words** **c) Turn to your English textbook the Integrated English. Read topic** **4 on sound and pattern in poetry.** **d) Read any Psalm and any verse from Job. What do you notice?** **Other literary forms that are used in the Bible are:** i) Prose in Leviticus, which is a Legislative text ii) Wise sayings in Proverbs iii) Prophetic speeches by Jeremiah iv) Prayers by Nehemiah v) Love Songs, for example, the Songs of Solomon vi) Letters. Here see Pauline Epistles (Romans) vii) Gospels, for example, Marks Gospel viii) Religious events, for example, Exodus ix) Narratives, for example, Genesis x) Philosophical essays, for example, the book of Job. Here note the use of metaphors and similes in philosophical essays. **The effects of Bible translations on African languages** **Bible translations:** i) Increased and deepened African faith in God. ii) Led to increased literacy. After Africans acquired literacy skills, they read the Bible and improved their literacy skills. Christian missionaries established schools in order to teach literacy that helped African to read the Bible. ii) Made it easy for missionaries to spread the gospel to the African communities. iii) Increased the demand for the Bible. This led to writing of Books and setting up of printing presses in African countries. iv) Made it easy for the expansion of the church i.e. more people became Christians. v) Led to the emergence of independent churches and schools. vi) The missionaries and colonialists learnt the African languages. vii) The African converts realized that the missionaries were unfair to them. There was for example a different treatment of African by White missionaries. This was inequality of races, which was and is even now against Christian teachings. viii) Helped Africans to re-discover their cultural identity. For example the use of African instruments, dressings, and practice of polygamy, which David and other kings in the Old Testament did. ix) Led to the writings and spread of African languages. The missionaries learnt local languages. x) Improved communications between missionaries and the local people because they could understand each other. xi) Increased printing of reading materials **The effects of Bible translations on Africans communities** After the first Bible translations, there were immediate effects or influences on some communities. For example, some community leaders did not agree with the Christian teachings. Some wanted to retain aspects of their African religion. As a result, some communities who disagreed with Bible translations established their own Christian denominations in order to preach the Bible, as they understood it. This was the emergence of independent churches. Some African communities built independent schools where their children could learn how to read and write without being forced to practice all the Christian teachings. **Review questions** 1) What is the importance of reading the Bible? 2) How is the Bible used in society today? 3) How does the Kenya Government use the Bible today? 4) Name the major divisions of the Bible in both the New Testament and the Old Testament 5) What are the effects of Bible translation on African languages? 6) Why is the Bible referred to as (a) a Library and (b) the Word of God 7) What is the meaning of the term inspiration? **Study activities** 1. Read the Bible quotations given above. 2. Carry out role plays e.g. the sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham. **CREATION AND THE FALL OF MAN (GENESIS 1-3, 6-9, 11)** **INTRODUCTION** In this topic, you shall learn about creation and the fall of man. This information is in Genesis. **BIBLICAL ACCOUNTS OF CREATION AND THEIR MEANINGS** The book of Genesis begins with two creation stories. The first creation story is in Genesis chapter one. The second creation story is in Genesis chapter two. **The two creation stories** The first creation story is in Genesis chapter one. The second creation story is in Genesis chapter two. This story is like a song or poem. Its written, Let there be and God saw that it was good to separate, and there was evening and morning on Each creation is taken as a day. The creation took place in the following order. It is orderly: 1st day God created day and night (Light and darkness) 2nd day The Heavens (sky) 3rd day The Earth, Water / Sea, Vegetation (Plants, trees, grass) 4th day Sun, Moon and Stars 5thday Birds, Sea Creatures 6th day Animals, Livestock, Man was the last creation (human beings) 7th day God rested and blessed the 7th day and made it holy. In this creation story, we see God creating things in an orderly manner, day after day until the 6th day. It was last in the first account. God created man from dust and breathed into his nostrils before anything else is mentioned. God then put man in the Garden of Eden, which He had made for him so that man could till and keep it. The garden was planted eastward in Eden. Out of the ground, God made every tree to grow. In the middle of the garden, there was the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Man was given the responsibility of tilling and conserving the garden. Man was commanded to eat of every tree in the garden except the tree of knowledge of good and evil. A river flowed from the garden and then it separated into four tributaries. God saw that man should not be alone hence He made him a helper/mate; a woman from one of the mans ribs. Man was also given the responsibility of naming all the animals in the garden. There is mention of God resting after work Mentions what was created on which day. Each creation takes a day. -This story is like a song or a poem. Its written, Let there be and God saw that it was good to separate, and there was evening and morning -It is orderly.
-doesnt mention the daily activities of GOD

Now compare them with my answer. **ATTRIBUTES OF GOD FROM THE BIBLICAL CREATION** **ACCOUNTS** The creation stories tell us that God is: (i) The sole creator and the only source of life (ii) Immortal and Eternal (iii) He is self existent (iv) God of order (v) Source of goodness and true happiness (vi) Holy, merciful and just (vii) Provider and sustainer of the universe and all that is in it (viii) All knowing (Omniscient) (ix) All powerful (Omnipotent) (x) Everywhere (Omnipresent) (xi) A personal God. (xii) He has a mind and a will (xiii) Moral God. He is interested in the behaviour of man and woman. He commands her/him to do the right things. **TRADITIONAL AFRICAN UNDERSTANDING OF CREATION** Traditional African view of creation is brought out through traditional stories of creation (Myths). The Agikuyu, Akamba, Gusii and other Kenyan communities have stories explaining their origin. These stories give each community a sense of belonging, and identity. The stories explain the mysteries of life. These stories have common characteristics or teachings. Thus all African communities believe that God: - (i) Is the chief architect of the world (ii) Existed from the very beginning of time. (iii) Created everything out of nothing. (iv) Provides for the needs of human beings. (v) Was disobeyed by human beings who had lived in eternal bliss. This bliss came to an end when human beings disobeyed God. (vi) The African communities had different names to describe God. God was not known as God but as the Creator of everything that existed on earth and skies. He was Mumbi and Mungai to Gikuyu. He was master of the universe. The Kamba called Him Ngai wa Matu. They believed that God continues to create through human beings. **Examples of African creation stories** 1. The Kamba believed that God created man and woman then tossed them to the earth. 2. The Bukusu say that God the creator (Were Khakaba) created the world alone. a. First God created heaven then created two assistants, Mukhaba and Murumwa. Were the God made the sun, moon, stars, a big red cock which crows whenever it thunders, the rains, the rainbow, mountains, rivers, lakes, streams and all the other things on earth. b. Created a woman for the man. c. Created plants, animals, birds and other creatures. **THE TEACHINGS FROM THE BIBLICAL CREATION** **ACCOUNTS** I. God is responsible for all creation. He is the sole creator. Gods creation was good. Everything He created God said it was good. It was without flaws and mistakes. God is the provider. God created everything that man needs. He also created food for all animals and other creatures. God is orderly. II. Man has a special place in Gods creation. Man was made as the keeper of God creation. Man is a co-creator and keeper of Gods creation since he was made in the image and likeness of God. Man was comma- nded to work. III. A woman was made from the mans flesh. She joins man in marriage and they become one flesh. God ordains marriage. Human beings were created to socialize. IV. Sin is a result of man and woman disobedience of God. **Responsibilities given to human beings by God in the Genesis stories** **of creation** After creating man and then woman, God asked man to: a. Reproduce and multiply. b. Rule over the rest of His creations. c. Be in charge of the fish, birds, and all the animals. d. Cultivate the garden and guard it. e. Eat from the fruits of the garden except from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. f. Name the animals. g. Subdue the earth h. Transform the creation that God has provided human beings with i. Use creation forests, rivers, mountains with responsibility and respect. j. Be a steward of Gods creation k. Engineer Gods creation by creating things from the creation l. Dominate the earth **Group work** Work in twos or threes and answer these questions. i. How does man fulfill the command to subdue and fill the earth? ii. How is man a co creator with God? **BIBLICAL TEACHING: THE FALL OF MAN, ORIGIN OF SIN** **AND THE CONSEQUENCES** **Introduction** Man and woman fell from the Garden of Eden. This experience is expla- ined in genesis chapter 3 verse 4; chapter 6 verse 9 and chapter 11. In these verses, the Bible is teaching about sin, which made Adam and Eve fall. Sin is defined as iniquity, and guilt. It is to miss a mark, to transgress. Sin is a rebellion or an offence against God. Sin originated with the disobedience of Adam and Eve. They had been commanded not to eat of the fruits of the tree of knowledge of good and evil the tree in the middle of the Garden of Eden. But Adam and Eve ate the fruit after being deceived by the serpent. Man had the power to resist temptation but instead he yielded. Genesis Chapter 3 verse 6 states that man wanted to be wise and thought how wonderful it would be to become wise hence sin arises from the lack of knowledge of God, from the denial of trust of God. **The consequences of sin** After sinning, we the human race and sinners: 1) Replaced friendship with God with fear of God. 2) Lost innocence. What had been innocent and good became shameful. Adam and Eve became ashamed of their nakedness, something they had never felt before they sinned against God. 3) Lost good relationship with God. The good relationship between God and man was betrayed. Human beings were alienated from God. The Lord God sent him out of the Garden of Eden 4) Damaged the perfect relationship between man and woman. The Lord said to the woman You will have desire for your husband, yet you will be subject to him. 5) Pain became part of human experience. I will greatly multiply your pain in child bearing. 6) Man began toiling and struggling to meet his needs You will have to work hard and sweat to make the soil produce anything 7) The home of man, and the earth itself was placed under a curse. Cursed is the ground because of you. Enmity between man and wild animals emerged. 9) Man began to die. Death sentence is passed upon all men. You will return to the ground you are dust 10) Man began to hate. Man developed murderous feelings in his heart, for example Cain killed Abel, his younger brother. 11) Man changed and became prone to sin. 12) Life span of man was reduced (see Gen. 6:3) I will not allow people to live forever, they will live no longer than 120 years 13) Mans language was confused by God after the flood (read Gen.11: 7) 14) Sin led to embarrassment, mistrust, suffering, pain, pride, arrogance and death. **Summary** Disobedience of God by Adam and Eve brought serious sin consequences to human beings. Sin brings sadness and suffering to man even today. **CONCEPT OF EVIL** **Introduction** In this lesson, we shall discuss the concept of evil as told by the traditi- onal African religion and the biblical writings. We shall study similarities and differences of evil from the two religions. **What is evil?** In the traditional African society, evil was an offence against God, spirits and ancestors. It was also viewed as an offence against another person or community. Evil was also a misfortune that can befall an individual or a community. **What are the causes of evil?** Many of the traditional African societies do not associate God with evil. God is not the creator of evil. Some communities believe that evil is an external power that exists on its own. Thus in the traditional African society, evil was understood or explained as something mysterious that was caused by several people and things. These were: a) Evil spirits b) Ancestral spirits due to disobedience to them c) Some animals like the chameleon are sources of evil. The Akamba believed that chameleons brought evil. Other communities believed that if an owl cries near ones homestead, it is a sign of evil. d) People with mystical powers for example magic, sorcery, and witchcraft are evils e) If a member of a community breaks a taboo by disobedience, this action may bring evil spirits. f) The spirits of the dead; cause evil; if they are not remembered or respected. Evil spirits cause harm and violence. **Consequences of evil in traditional African society** These were many and ranged from (a) Barrenness (b) Drought (c) Epidemics (d) Madness (e) Sickness (f) Death (g) Drowning (h) Burning in a house (i) War (j) Physically and mentally handicapped children (l) Rebellious children **GODS PLAN OF SALVATION** After the fall of man, God took steps to heal the damaged situation and relationship between Him and Adam and Eve. GOD: 1. Provided clothing of skin to Adam and Eve. 2. Looked for Adam and Eve since they were hiding from His presence. 3. Provided Adam and Eve with the knowledge to find different foods. 4. Declared enmity between man and the snake. 5. Hinted at the ultimate victory of man when He said that the seed of the woman would crush the snake or serpents head. The serpent would attack the heel of man and woman. All through the Old Testament, and the New Testament, we see Gods plan of salvation being manifested. For instance, GOD chose and separated Abraham from other communities. The children of Israel led by Moses (were delivered) from Egypt,. God sent prophets to teach and warn the Israelites of the dangers of sin. Finally God sent his only son Jesus Christ to die on the cross to save human kind. **SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TRADITIONAL** **AFRICAN VIEW OF EVIL AND BIBLICAL CONCEPT OF SIN** **Similarities** Both the Biblical and traditional African view or agree that 1) God is supreme. God is neither the creator nor author of evil 2) Sin comes from the disobedience of God by human beings 3) Evil and misfortune are Gods curse to man (Biblical) while the traditional African society sees evil as curses by ancestors, and elders. Both curses lead to misfortunes. 4) The result of sin and evil is human sufferings 5) Sin and evil lead to man being separated from God 6) God is the guardian of law and order 7) Human beings have the ability to overcome evil **Differences** 1) Biblical account emphasizes personal nature of sin while in the African concept; sin is more social and communal 2) Biblical account attributes evil to disobedience while African concept attributes evil not only to disobediences but other external forces. 3) Biblical accounts offer a message of hope to overcome evil while African concept doesnt offer a solution to sin and evil. 4) Traditional African concept all forms of suffering as a result of sin while in the Bible suffering is not always a result of sin. **Review questions** 1) Explain the differences between the two creation stories 2) State the traditional African view of creation 3) Explain how human beings continue with the work of creation 4) What is the origin of sin and evil according to traditional African society? 5) Give three consequences of sin as stated in Genesis 6) State the consequences of evil according to African traditional societies 7) Trace Gods plan of salvation of human kind Compare biblical and traditional African understanding of evil and sin. 9) What does the command Subdue the earth in Genesis 1 verse 28 mean? **FAITH AND GOD PROMISES TO ABRAHAM** **BACKGROUND TO THE CALL OF ABRAHAM (Genesis 11:24-32,** **12)** **Introduction** The background to the call of Abraham is found in the first book of the bible. This is Genesis which is a Greek word meaning Beginning. The relationship between Adam and God was good but after Adam disobeyed GOD, their relationship changed because of sin by Eve and Adam. After sometime, God repaired this relationship by calling Abraham and offering salvation. **Background** -Abraham lived with his father Terah at a place called Ur. Abrahams father lived among people who worshiped many gods. One of the gods whom people of Ur worshipped was the moon. This worship of many gods is referred to as polytheism. -The family of Terah moved from Ur to Haran. While at Haran, God called Abraham at 75 years old. He was told to. Leave your country, your relatives and your fathers home and go to a land that I am going to show you. Abraham obeyed Gods call. He left Haran for a land that was unknown to him. He took his property his wife Sarah and his nephew lot. At the time of the call of Abraham, he was known as Abram and his wife Sarai. God changed their names to Abraham and Sarah. Abraham means Father of many nations while Sarah means mother of nations. -On arrival in Canaan, he travelled and came to a place called Schechem. God appeared to him once more. Abraham built an altar for the lord at this place. Altars are places of worship. They were regarded as holy and were manifestations of Gods presence. An altar was made of stones. -After sometime, he separated with his nephew Lot due to their servants having strife over water for their livestock. Abraham left Canaan due to feminine. He went to Egypt. **FAITH AND GODS PROMISES TO ABRAHAM (HEBREWS 11: 1** ** 6)** **a. THE MEANING OF FAITH** -Faith is a strong belief, a complete trust or confidence in someone or something. It is also a firm belief, which is not based on any scientific or logical proof. Faith in God is an attitude of complete trust in God. It is not based on concrete or tangible objects. Faith is manifested in the ways of life of a believer. -Abraham is an example of someone who had faith in God. He showed his faith in action in several ways. **b. HOW ABRAHAM DEMONSTRATED HIS FAITH IN GOD** 1. Although Abraham was old, he left Haran to go to a strange unknown land of Canaan. 2. After he settled in Canaan, Abraham was assured by God of his protection and was given other promises such as he will get a son, and Abraham believed God. Sarah gave birth to a son when she was 90 years old and Abraham was around 120 years old. This was as the lord had promised Abraham. 3. The son was named Isaac that means laughter because Sarah had laughed when she was told that she would have a child in her old age. The child Isaac was circumcised when he was eight (8) days old. 4. Abraham was told by God to circumcise all males in his household including himself. He obeyed. 5. When Abraham was asked to sacrifice his son Isaac to God, he was ready to do so. 6. Abraham believed that God would fulfill all the promises he had given to him 7. Abraham demonstrated his faith by building altars **c. GODS PROMISES TO ABRAHAM (GENESIS 12:2-3, 15:1-21,** **21, 17:1-8, 17:15-18)** A promise is giving an assurance of something to someone. The promises God gave to Abraham were that: 1. God told him he would give him a land. His descendants would be given the land of Canaan to dwell in 2. His name would be made famous 3. His descendants will be many. Abraham would be made a great nation. 4. God would protect him 5. He was promised a son of their own 6. God would bless him 7. God would bless those who bless him and curse those who curse him 8. Abraham was promised that he would die in peace and in an old age 9. His descendants would be strangers in a foreign land but afterwards would come out with great possessions. **d. THE RELEVANCE OF THE PROMISES MADE BY GOD TO** **ABRAHAM TO CHRISTIANS TODAY (Gen. 12: 2 3, 15: 1 21,** **21:1 7, 17: 15 18)** God called Abraham from idol worship in the same way God continues to call people to serve him. 1) Through Abraham, God had a plan to restore the relationship between man and God 2) Christians receive the promises of blessings from God through Abraham (Gods promises to Abraham fulfilled through Christians) 3) As Abraham left his own people, Christians should leave their sinful lives and put their whole trust in God. 4) Abraham is seen as the descendant not only of the Israelites but also of Christians 5) Christians have faith that God fulfils promises to them as he did to Abraham 6) Christians are assured of Gods protection 7) Through Gods dealing with Abraham, God shows that he values a personal relationship with human kind. Through Jesus Christ Christians enter into an everlasting covenant with God. Just like Abraham entered into a covenant with God. 9) The promise to Abraham of Canaan Promised Land is to Christians the hope for new land heaven 10) God continues to make promises to those who believe him 11) Abraham is the ancestor (Father) of all believers) **e. DEFINE THE TERM COVENANT** **i. Definition.** A covenant is a solemn agreement between two persons or two groups of people. An agreement is between two separated parties. Its a pact, a treaty. When it is a covenant, it conveys a union or partnership. **ii. Characteristics / components of a covenant** There are components or features that must be in a covenant. A covenant must have a ceremony, sign, witnesses, promises/vows/oaths, obligations / consequences, and participants. A covenant establishes a sacrificial bond between the parties involved. There are obligations or rules by which the parties must abide by, adhere to and observe in order to keep the covenant. A covenant is an agreement and if it is broken, there are consequences for breaking it. In the Bible, there are many covenants. **iii. Examples of covenants in the Bible** 1. Adamic covenant Agreement between God and Adam 2. Noahlic Covenant Gods covenant with Noah where God promised to preserve life of man and not to destroy it with water. The sign of the covenant is the rainbow. In Gen 9 verse 3, GOD told Noah, Everything that lives and moves will be food for youJust as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything. Verse 4 says, But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it 3. Abrahamic covenant Gods covenant with Abraham. He promised to fulfill promises He gave to Abraham. These promises were: (1) Increase numbers of descendant of Abraham. He will be father of many nations, (2) Be GOD of his descendants (3) Abraham will have a son an heir, (4) Given land of Canaan and other lands from the river of Egypt to River Euphrates, and all for heirs of Abraham (Gen. 15: 17 18) (5) Circum- cision of all males at 8 days after birth even none Israelites living in their land (6) Covenant with Isaac 4. Mosaic Covenant is a covenant between the Israelites and GOD. Moses led Israel to Mt. Sinai. God promised to be their God. Israelites were given the law written by GOD in tablets of stone, with law and commands I have written for. instruction. (Read exodus 23). 5. Davidic Covenant covenant between David and God God promised him that his dynasty would rule forever. 6. Messianic Covenant new covenant between Christians and God through Jesus Christ. **iv. Gods covenant with Abraham and its importance (Genesis 15:1-** **19)** The covenant was established after God appeared to Abraham in a vision. During the visitation of God, Abraham was 100 years old and Sarah 90 years. He was promised a son. Abraham wanted assurance from God. God told him to bring him the following items for sacrifice. **v. Items for sacrifice** The birds were not split. After it was dark, smoking fire and a flaming torch suddenly appeared
and passed between the pieces of animals.
Towards evening, Abraham fell into a deep sleep. While he slept the
Lord appeared to him and told him that:
His descendants will be strangers in a foreign land and be slaves for 400
years. But they will come out of this land with a lot of wealth and God will punish the nation that will enslave Israelites.
He, Abraham will live up to a ripe age, and die in peace. Then the Lord
made a covenant with Abraham and promised to give him and his descendants the land of Canaan. God himself passed through the sacrifi- ces and bound himself to keep the promises. **f) IMPORTANCE OF THE COVENANT BETWEEN GOD AND** **ABRAHAM (GEN. 15: 1- 19)**
God bound himself in a personal relationship with a human being As God passed through the meat, he showed Abraham he would always
protect him. This passed on to the descendants of Abraham
This covenant between God and Abraham begins a lasting relationship
between God and all the nations of the earth.
Throughout this covenant God was initiating his plan of salvation for human kind
The promises made to Abraham were fulfilled in New Testament blood
of the lamb death of Jesus Christ
It emphasized the importance of faith followed by obedience that
Abraham shared. **g) COVENANTS IN MODERN LIFE AND THEIR IMPORTANCE** Modern covenants are (a) Marriage (b) Baptism (c) Oath of loyalty and (d) Ordination of clergy **Marriage ceremony:**In marriage, the bride, bridegroom and their fami- lies come together. When the two families come together a relationship is developed. They make an agreement and both sides are seriously involved in the ceremony, whether the marriage is civil or religious. During the marriage ceremony the couple makes vows/promises to each other, before a priest/ pastor and the congregation. Two officials witness these agree- ments. Rings are exchanged as a sign of a lasting relationship. A certifi- cate is given in some cases as a testimony (sign) of this agreement. There is eating and drinking. **Baptism:**In a Christian baptism, a covenant is entered into between the believer and God. The believer makes vows before God. The priest and the whole congregation witness this agreement. In some churches, a card is issued to the person who has been baptized as a sign of Christian mem- bership. The baptized can now take the Holy Communion, which is a Christian Ceremony. But when an infant is baptized, parents take the vows on behalf of the child. **Loyalty /oath**: Leaders in public service for example the president, ministers, Members of Parliament, and chief officers are sworn in before they take over their new responsibilities. They swear (take an oath) and promise to carry out their duties firmly and without fear or favour. **Ordination of the clergy**: Church leaders, nuns and priests take oaths and make vows to God and to the congregation in a ceremony attended by worshippers. **The importance of modern day covenants** They bind different groups They act as a security They strengthen relationships They unite people together They create loyalty They create peace, harmony and bring a sense of permanence **h) THE TESTING OF ABRAHAMS FAITH (GEN. 22: 1 18)** God tested Abrahams faith by asking him to go and sacrifice his only son Isaac. This was the son he loved so much. He was to travel to Mount Moniah. On reaching Mt. Moriah, he built an altar, and arranged wood on it. He tied up his son Isaac and placed him on the altar on top of the wood. He lifted a knife to kill him. But the Angel of the Lord called out to him from heaven. Abraham! Abraham! Do not lay a hand on the boyDo not do anything to him. Now I know you that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son (v 11-12). Abraham had obedient reverence for God became he did not keep back his only son from God. God provided a ram for sacrifice. He named the mountain the Lord provided God was pleased with Abraham and promised him blessings, many descendants victory, and protection. **Activity** Read Genesis 12:1 9, 15:1 6, 17:23 24, 21:1 7, 22:1-19 IMPORTANCE OF FAITH IN CHRISTIAN LIFE TODAY 1. A Christian today is acceptable to God through his faith in God through Jesus Christ. Without faith it is impossible to please God. 2. A Christian can only serve God if he has faith in him. Faith enables a Christian to serve God 3. Faith enables a Christian to accomplish what appears to be impossible 4. Through faith, Christians are able to trust God to fulfill his promises to them 5. Faith is the foundation of the Christians salvation 6. Faith in God gives a Christian the power to overcome all temptations. 8. Christians should expect to have their faith tested just like Abraham was. 9. Faith enables Christians to patiently wait on Gods promises 10. Christians through faith in God help the poor, make right decisions and are able to understand and know God better. **JEWISH AND AFRICAN PRACTICES OF CIRCUMCISION** **a. IMPORTANCE OF CIRCUMCISION TO ABRAHAM AND HIS** **DESCENDANTS (GEN. 17: 1 16)** The rite of circumcision was started by Abraham and has been practiced by the Jews up to the present times. **In the Old Testament**, it was important because: (i) Through circumcision: God assured Abraham that he would fulfill His promises to him. (ii) Circumcision was a sign that Abraham and his descendants had entered into a covenant with God. It was an outward sign of inner faith. (iii) Circumcision was a mark of identity for the Jews (iv) It was a sign of obedience to God (v) It was an acceptance of God as the only true God and their willingness to remain faithful to him **In the New Testament** (vi) Circumcision doesnt qualify one to be a child of God. One is accepted as a Christian without circumcision as long as they have faith in God. (vii) A true descendant of Abraham is the Christian who truly believes in God and lives according to His will regardless of colour, race or creed. **b. CIRCUMCISION IN AFRICAN COMMUNITIES** Circumcision is one of the rites of passage among the African people. It marks the transition from one stage to another. Many ethnic communities in Kenya still practice the rite of circumcision. During circumcision ceremonies, prayers are offered to God for the well being of the initiates (those who are being circumcised) and the prosperity of the whole community. Initiates learn secrets of their community and society. They are taught myths, origin, religious beliefs, and sex education. In some communities, initiates are given new names or ornaments to signify their new status. **c. JEWISH AND AFRICAN PRACTICES OF CIRCUMCISION** **Similarities** In both Jewish and African communities, circumcision: (a) is a mark of identity (b) provided a sense of belonging (c) was observed as a religious experience (d) was compulsory (e) was a tradition passed from one generation to another (f) is a time for shedding blood (g) was a time for offering prayers to God for the well being of the initiates (h) was a time for giving gifts (i) was a ceremony for initiation (j) was a time for giving the initiates names (k) took place in sacred places. **Differences** In Jewish community, i. Circumcision was a rite for boys while in African society it was for both boys and girls. But it was for boys in a few communities. ii. Boys were circumcised when aged 8 days while in the African society; it was between 15 to 25 years old. iii. Circumcision was for boys organ while in African societies several forms of initiation were done, for example, removal of teeth, and body piercing among others. iv. Circumcision was a command from God while for the African communities it was in obedience to customary law where ancestors were invoked to protect the initiates. **Among the African societies** v. Circumcision was a rite of passage from childhood to adulthood while for the Jews it was not. vi. The initiates were given specialized education while the Jews were not. vii. The initiates were grouped into age groups, and were secluded from the community while among the Jews it was not so. viii. The rite of circumcision according to seasons while the Jews once a child is born, they are circumcised on the 8th day. ix. After circumcision, the initiates were allowed to marry, enter a warrior group, own property but for the Jews the initiate was still a child. **Revision questions** 1.Explain why Abraham is referred to as the father of faith 2. Give five actions from the life of Abraham that shows his faith to God 3. List some of the promises God gave to Abraham 4. Compare and contrast the Jewish and traditional African practice of circumcision 5. What is the importance of faith to Christians? 6. State the elements of a covenant 7. Give examples of covenants in the bible and the modern society 8. Discuss the circumstances that led God to enter into a covenant relationship with Abraham. **SINAI COVENANT** **THE CALL OF MOSES** One day, Moses was looking after or tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law. Jethro was a priest of Midian. When Moses came to mount Horeb, the mountain of God, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that although the bush was on fire, it was not burning. Moses went over to the burning bush to look. God called him out within the bush Moses! Moses! He replied, Here I am. God then told Moses not to come closer and to take off his sandals for the place where he was standing was a holy ground. God introduced himself as the God of his father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. God then said he had seen the misery and sufferings of the Israelites in Egypt. He had heard their cry. God had come down to rescue Israelites from the hand of Egyptians. God was to take them to their home, the land of the Canaanites, a land flowing with milk and honey. God told Moses that He was sending him to go to Pharaoh and bring out the Israelites, the people of God, from Egypt. Moses resisted the call. He asked God Who am I, that is should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israe- lites out of Egypt? God promised to be with him. God said to Moses Say to the Israelites the Lord. The God of their fathers, God of Abraham, God of Isaac and God of Jacob has sent me to you. Moses was told to assemble the elders of Israel and inform them that God was going to deliver them from Egypt. Moses was then to go to the king of Egypt with the elders. He was to tell the king the Lord, the God of the Hebrews has met with us. (EXODUS 3:1 22) **Gods sign to Moses** Moses was given several signs by God In case the people of Israel did not believe in him. a) First sign was his staff turning into a snake when he threw it down. When he touched the snakes tail it turned into his staff b) Second sign was God asked Moses to put his hand inside his cloak and it was as white as a snow leprous. He was asked to put it back into his cloak and it was restored. c) Moses further complained that he was a stammerer. God then appoi- nted Aaron, his brother, as his spokesman. **Reasons Moses gave against the call** 1. He felt unworthy of the call. 2. He wondered who he was to tell the Israelites that God had sent him 3. Moses said that he was a stammerer so he let God choose a spokesperson. Moses however heeded to the call and went back to Egypt together with his family. God promised to be with him and perform signs before Phara- oh. **What does the name Moses mean?** It means drawn out of water. **What did Moses learn about God from his Calling?** Moses learnt that: 1. God is caring, merciful and concerned about the welfare of his people Israelites. 2. God is transcendent he is beyond human understanding. He cannot be limited to time and space. 3. God chooses whomever he wills to carry out his plans. He chose Abraham an old man, a moon worshipper and now Moses, a murderer, a fugitive and a stammerer. 4. God expects total obedience and faith from those that He chooses 5. God is powerful, eternal and omnipresent 6. God is holy. 7. God is a God of history, which means He is concerned with His peoples welfare. 8. God is mysterious He manifested Himself in the burning bush that was not being consumed. **How did God prepare Moses to be the future leader of Israelites?** 1. His life was spared when he was rescued by Pharaohs daughter 2. He was nursed by his own mother who taught him about Yahweh and his own true identity 3. Life in the wilderness hardened him to be bold and to persevere hardships 4. He learnt to be patient, keen, and responsible as a shepherd 5. He acquired leadership skills while living at pharaohs palace 6. He learnt literacy and numeracy skills (Educational skills) at the palace. 7. He was not a stranger to Pharaoh hence he could approach him freely. **THE TEN PLAGUES EXODUS 7:14-11:10** During the call of Moses at Mount Sinai, God gave Moses a rod with which he could perform mighty signs before the Israelites and before Pharaoh. Aaron was to be his spokesman. Moses and Aaron gathered the Israelite elders and leaders to tell them what God had said to them. After Moses had performed the miracles that God had showed him; the Israelite leaders believed him. They then approached Pharaoh so that he may release the Israelites. However instead of releasing the Israelites, Pharaoh became crueler. He gave Israelites harder work. When Pharaoh refused to release Israelites, God instructed Moses to bring ten plagues upon Egypt. These plagues brought; great trouble and suffering to Israelites. **Ten plagues** **1) The plague of blood (Exodus 7: 14 25)** Moses and Aaron used the rod. They struck the waters of the river as God instructed them. All the water in the rivers, canals, and pools in Egypt turned into blood. All the fish died and there was no water to drink. This situation lasted for seven days. However Pharaohs heart was hardened. He did not release the Israelites. **2) The plague of frogs (Exodus 8:1 15)** God then sent Moses to tell Pharaoh that if he refused to release the Israelites the whole land would be covered with frogs. At the command of Moses, Aaron held out the rod of Moses and frogs covered the whole land. On seeing this, Pharaoh pleaded with Moses and Aaron to pray to the Lord to get rid of the frogs and he would release them. They prayed and all the frogs died. Pharaoh, however, changed his mind and refused to release the Israelites. **3) Plague of gnats (Exodus 8:16 19)** The lord instructed Moses to tell Aaron to strike the ground and Aaron did so and all the dust in Egypt turned into gnats or small flies that bites. The magicians of Egypt could perform the first two plagues. They could not bring the plague of gnats. Egyptians acknowledged that the presence of gnats or small flies that bites was Gods work. But even with this information, Pharaoh still refused to release the Israelites. **4) Plague of flies (Exodus 8:20 32)** The Lord warned Pharaoh through Moses once more. He was told that God would send swarms of flies to the Egyptian houses. The Israelites houses would be spared. Even after bringing the plague of flies, Pharaohs heart hardened even more **5) Death of cattle (Exodus 8:1 7)** A plague of disease befell the Egyptian cattle. Not a single Israelites animal died. Pharaoh was not moved; and he refused to let Jews go home. **6) Plague of boils (Exodus 9:8 12)** Moses threw ashes into the air as God had instructed. This produced boils, which became open sores on the skin of the Egyptians. Unmoved by the suffering of his people, Pharaoh still refused to let the Israelites leave. **7) Plague of hail (Exodus 9:13 35)** Moses raised his rod and there was a hailstorm with lighting and thunder. The people, animals and plants that were struck by the lightning died. Pharaoh then promised to let the Israelites go but as soon as Moses prayed for the hailstorm to stop, pharaoh hardened his heart and refused to let the Israelites leave. **8) Plague of Locusts (Exodus 19:1 20)** Locusts covered the whole land and ate all the crops in the fields. The locusts ate all that had not been destroyed by the hailstorm. When Moses prayed to God, for locusts to leave; Pharaoh hardened his heart and refu- sed to let the Israelites leave. **9) Plague of darkness (Exodus 10: 21 29)** God then instructed Moses to stretch out his hand to heaven. There was total darkness in Egypt for three days. But there was light where the Israe- lites they were living. Pharaoh remained unmoved and would not release the Israelites out of Egypt. **10) Death of Egyptian first-born males (Exodus 11: 1 31).** After the plague of darkness, God sent Moses once more to Pharaoh. He was told that this time even his family would be affected. The Lord would kill all the first-born Egyptian sons and first-born male animals at mid- night. This plague occurred during the night of Passover. Pharaoh was moved and allowed Israelites to leave Egypt. **What do the plagues tell us about Gods attributes?** GOD: 1. Empowers His people to perform miracles and to do His work 2. Is Almighty and more powerful than the Egyptian gods. 3. Is determined to fulfil His plans. 4. Is a God of justice. He protects the oppressed. 5. Gives everyone a chance to repent. Notice that each time Pharaoh promised to release the Israelites; God relieved the Egyptians from the plagues. 6. Fulfils His promises He had promised Abraham to deliver his descen- dants from foreign lands. 7. Expects total obedience and faith. 8. Communicates His will through natural events. 9. Is caring and loving. **PASSOVER (EXODUS 12:1-30, 19, 20, 34)** The tenth plague is called the Passover. It happened on the fourteenth day of the month. The Israelites were to offer one-year-old lamb per family. If a family was too small, they were to share the lamb with their neighbours. If a lamb was not available, a one-year-old goat could also be used. They were told to: 1. Slaughter the lamb/goat; smear some of the blood on the sides and tops of the door- frames of their houses. 2. Roast the meat and eat it with bitter herbs and unleavened bread (bread without yeast). If there were any leftovers they were to burn them with fire. 3. Eat in a hurry while fully dressed and having packed their belongings. They were told to borrow silver, clothings, jewellery, and gold from the Egyptians. 4. That on the same night, the angel of death would kill every first born both males and animals in the houses without blood. 5. The angel of death would pass over the houses with blood sparing them. The blood was a sign to indicate this is a house of Israelites. When the Lord sees the blood, He will pass over that house (V.13) 6. The Israelites were told to celebrate / commemorate from generation to generation the Passover as a festival to the Lord. 7. The Israelites were not allowed to come out of their houses on the night of Passover. 8. At midnight, the Lord struck down all firstborn in Egypt from Phara- ohs household to the firstborn of the prisoners and firstborn of livestock. 9. There was loud wailing over Egypt. Every house had someone dead. **Significance of items used during the Passover** 1) Roasted Meat this is the easiest method of preparing food since the Israelites were to leave in a short time. 2) Bitter herbs was a reminder of the suffering and hardships and slavery experienced in Egypt. 3) Eating while standing. Deliverance was near, hence the need to leave in a hurry. 4) Eating while fully dressed with their stuff at hand. This signified a quick deliverance; hence Israelites should be ready to leave Egypt at once. 5) Eating unleavened bread the bread was to be eaten and none left over hence there was no need to add yeast for preservation. 6) Collecting Jewellery God had promised Abraham that after slavery for four hundred and thirty years, his descendants shall be freed with great possessions. 7) Remaining indoors for security from death. Anyone outside was killed. Blood on doorposts a sign for deliverance. The angel of death would pass over doors with blood. **THE EXODUS** **Introduction** Exodus means movement of a large number of people. **Crossing the Red Sea** During the night of the Passover, Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and told them to leave, to go and worship their Lord. All the Israelites, their flocks and herds were urged to leave in a hurry. Pharaoh took his chariot army and followed the Israelites and found them camped by the Red Sea. God led the Israelites over the desert towards the Red Sea. Moses took the body (bones) of Joseph, as Joseph had requested the Israelites to do. When God rescues you, you must carry my body with you from this place (Ex 13 vs. 19) During the day the Lord went in front of them in a pillar of cloud (angel of God) to show them the way, and during the night the lord went in front in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel night and day. This pillar of cloud led the Israelites by day and night. The Egyptian army followed Israelites and caught up with them by the Red Sea where they had camped. Moses asked the scared Israelites to move near the sea. God told Moses to lift up his stick, and hold it over the sea. The waters of the Red Sea divided and the Israelites crossed the sea on dry ground with walls of water on both sides. The angel of God, and the pillar of cloud (who had been in front of the army of Israel) moved behind the Israelites and provided light to them as they cross. The Egyptians army pursued Israelites. The pillar of cloud made it dark for Egyptians who could not see where they were going. Just before daylight, the Lord looked at the Egyptians from the pillar of cloud and fire and God threw the army of the Egyptians into confusion. Moses was asked by the Lord to stretch out his hand. He did so and waters returned to its normal level drowning Egyptian army and their horses. **God protected the Israelites during the Exodus by:** 1) Making them cross the red sea on dry ground. 2) Providing water in the wilderness. 3) Providing manna and quails. 4) Defeating Amalekites their enemies. 5) Protecting them from snakes and diseases in the wilderness. **Provision of water in the wilderness** Israelites travelled in the desert for three days without water. The water, which they found at Marah was bitter and could not be drunk. They called the place Marah meaning bitter. This made them complain. Moses prayed to the Lord. The Lord showed Moses a piece of wood. Moses threw it into the water and it became fit to drink. God continued providing Israelites with water. Again the Israelites lacked water and complained bitterly (Ex.17:1 9). God instructed Moses to strike a rock and water came out of it. Moses called that place Massah which means testing and Meribah meaning rebellion. This was because the Israelites quarreled and tested God. **Provision of manna and quails (EX 16:1 35)** As the Israelites were travelling through the desert, they ran out of food. They were hungry and complained to Moses. Their complaints displeased the Lord for they often told Moses they wished he had let them die in Egypt instead of dying in the wilderness. This showed that the Israelites did not trust God to provide for them. In the morning, they were given Manna, which is a Hebrew word for the type of bread given to Israelites by God. The bread looked like wafers or flakes and tasted like coriander seed. In the evening, GOD provided Israelites with quails meat. The provision of manna and quails (meat) lasted for 40 years. On the 6th day of each week, God gave them food for two days one for the 6th day and the other for the 7th day (Sabbath). **DEFEAT OF THE AMALEKITES (Exodus 17: 8 16)** **Challenges faced by the Israelites during the Exodus** During the Exodus, the Israelites faced the challenge of the Amalekites. These were desert Nomads who attacked the Israelites in the wilderness. When the Amalekite army came against Israelites, Moses ordered Joshua to gather men and fight. God promised to destroy the Amalekites forever. During the battle, Moses held up his rod. And each time he raised his hands with the rod, the Amalekites were defeated. When he brought his hands down, the Israe- lites were defeated. Because of this, Aaron and Hur supported Moses hands until the Amalekites were defeated. In the wilderness God protected the Israelites form snakebites. He also used a cloud to protect the Israelites from the scorching heat during the day. At night, the pillar of fire provided warmth to protect them from the harsh cold of the wilderness. **The importance of the exodus in the history of the Israelites** The exodus showed Israelites that: 1) God loves and tolerates His people. 2) God did not abandon the Israelites despite their lack of faith. 3) God gave the Israelites encouragement through his servant Moses. 4) It was the end of the oppression of Israelites in Egypt. 5) Moses was Gods chosen leader. **MAKING THE SINAI COVENANT (EXODUS 19: 24 1 ** **The Sinai covenant** **God and Israelites**. God had specific instructions on how the Israelites were to prepare to make the new covenant. Before making the covenant, God brought Israelites to the foot of Mt. Sinai and asked Moses to ask them if they were willing to make the covenant with HIM. GOD asked them to enter into a personal relationship as a community with HIM. The Israelites agreed to make a covenant. They agreed to obey all Gods com- m.ands. God then promised to make them; i His people ii. A kingdom of priests iii. A holy nation **God and Moses**. God wanted to confirm that Moses was His true pro- phet. He therefore told Moses that He would come in a thick cloud to meet Israelites. In preparation for Gods coming on Mt. Sinai the Israelites were to: I. Make themselves holy by washing their clothes (garments) II. Mark the boundaries on the foot of the mountain to prevent any person or animal from climbing the mountain. III. To abstain from sexual relations At Mt Sinai, God manifested His presence in the form of thunder, lightening, earthquake and a thick cloud of smoke that covered the whole mountain. In addition, there was a loud trumpet blast that made the people tremble. Moses climbed the mountain. God gave Moses the Ten Comma- ndments after sealing the covenant. **Sealing of the covenant**. The Lord told Moses Come up the mountain to me, you and Aaron, Nadab, Abibu and 70 of Israel leaders. At a distance bow down in worship, and come alone to me. A ceremony was then prepared to seal the covenant. This is how it was sealed: a. Moses built an altar at the foot of the mountain. b. He set up twelve stones, which represented the twelve tribes of Israel. c. He then sent young men to burn sacrifices to the Lord and sacrificed some cattle as fellowship offering and peace offerings to God (EX 24 vs. 5). d. Moses took half the blood of animals and poured it in bowls; and the other half he threw against the altar (vs. 6). He then took the book of the covenant, and read it aloud to the Israelites who responded by saying all that the Lord has spoken we will do; and we shall be obedient e. Moses then took the blood in the bowls and sprinkled it over the people; saying This is the blood that seals the covenant which the Lord made with you when he gave all these commands. **Theophany.**Gods presence manifested itself in several ways such as: The burning bush (during the call of Moses) Pillar of fire and a pillar of cloud Exodus story The mighty wind, earthquake, still small voice story of Elijah Thunder, lighting, smoking mountain Exodus of Israelites from the
wilderness These were physical manifestations of Gods presence. **BREAKING THE SINAI COVENANT (Exodus 32:1 35; 34:6 8)** Israelites dishonored their pledge to obey God upon sealing the covenant; Moses went back to talk to God in the mountain. He left Aaron in charge of Israelites affairs. He stayed in the mountain for forty days. The lord revealed His glory to Moses at Mt. Sinai and declared His character. The Lord the compassionate and glorious God, slow to anger and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin (Ex 34:6 The Israelites urged Aaron to make them gods that they could see. Aaron agreed. He melted the rings of gold and moulded a bull calf god. Israelites were happy and said this is our god who took us out of Egypt. They offered burnt offerings and peace offerings to it and indulged themselves in eating, drinking and sex. By accepting a bull calf as their god, the Israelites expected bull calf of gold to give them the same strength and fertility like the Egyptian gods. Through this act, they broke their covenant with God. When Moses came down from the mountain, he found Israelites worshipping the gold bull calf. He got annoyed. He threw down the stone tablets he was holding; on which the 10 commandments were written. Moses then took the golden calf, and burnt it into powder and mixed it with water. He then made those worshipping the calf to drink the mixture. Moses ordered those who had sinned to be killed. LESSON EIGHT: RENEWAL OF THE COVENANT (Exodus 34:1 14). Learning outcomes. After studying this lesson, describe conditions for the renewal of the covenant The renewal of the covenant came after Moses pleaded with God not to destroy the Israelites after they broke the covenant. God spared the Israelites. God agreed to renew the covenant with the Israelites. He gave them several conditions for its renewal. Conditions for the renewal of the covenant The Israelites were: a) To obey Gods commandments b) Not to make any treaty with those who lived in the land where they were going. c) To break down their altar, smash their sacred stones and cut down their Asherah (Idols). Not to worship any other god and not to make idols for worship. d) To keep the feast of unleavened bread (Passover). e) Not to marry people form other tribes. f) To rest on the Sabbath day. g) To sacrifice and offer their best produce and animals to God. God in turn promised to a) Bless them. Protect and preserve the Israelites. b) Make them prosper so much that the surrounding nations would enquire about their source of wealth and success. With these conditions, the covenant between God and the Israelites was renewed. From the making and renewal of the covenant, it is clear that: (i) God expected the Israelites to obey and have faith in Him (ii) God wanted a personal relationship with Israelites. (iii) God is the only one to be worshipped. (iv) God is powerful. LESSON NINE: WORSHIPING GOD IN THE WILDERNESS Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson a.

TOPIC FIVE: LEADERSHIP IN ISRAEL: DAVID AND SOLOMON Learning outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: a. Explain the reasons for and against kingship in Israel b. State king Sauls achievements, failures and lessons learnt from Saul. c. Explain the importance of David as King of Israel and ancestor of Jesus Christ. d. Describe the qualities of a good leader drawn from King Davids leadership e. State King Solomons achievements and failures f. Explain the importance of the temple in Israel. LESSON ONE: REASONS FOR AND AGAINST KINGSHIP IN ISRAEL Introduction Yahweh remained the God of Israel and the sovereign ruler of his people. Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. Define leadership b. Name Israel judges in Canaan Leadership refers to the manner in which a communitys way of life is ruled or controlled. When Israelites settled in Canaan, Judges ruled them for the first 200 years. Some of the judges were (i) Othniel, (ii) Ehud (iii) Samson (iv) Deborah (v) Gideon (vi) Shamgar (vii). Samuel (viii). Barak Duties of judges a. Leading Israelites to war against their enemies b. Settling disputes among the people c. Acting as religious leaders and leading Israelites in worship d. Offering sacrifices on behalf of the people. e. Some of the judges acted as Gods prophets f. They anointed kings, for example Samuel anointed King David. Demands for a King in Israel After Israelites settled in Canaan, the Promised Land, they started demanding for an earthly king to rule over them. These demands for a king ruler were brought about by: i Samuels sons Joel and Abijah were corrupt and took bribes. The sons of Samuel, who were judges, lacked his good leadership qualities. ii The Israelites wanted a warrior king who could lead them to war against their enemies. iii The Israelites wanted to be like the other nations around them who had kings. iv The Israelites wanted a human leader whom they could see, approach, and talk to him face to face. v The Israelites wanted security, which could be provided by a stable political government ruled by law and order. vi They wanted a government that had a regular army, vii They also wanted an established law court system. Reasons against Kingship in Israel (Samuel 8:10 20) By demanding for a king, the Israelites were seen as rejecting Yahweh their unseen ruler. Two, there would be danger of hereditary kingship which would lead to oppression / dictatorship. God told Samuel to give Israelites strict warnings against Kingship by explaining how the king would treat them. A king would: - (a) Recruit Israelites sons forcefully into the army. (b) Grab peoples land. (c) Force people to pay taxes to the government (d) Turn people into slaves. (e) Introduce forced labour. (f) Force their daughters to work for his wives, sons, and for the royal house in general. The people of Israel were distinct from other nations. Asking for a king meant rejecting God as their unseen king. Further to this, Israel could become like other nations, which did not worship Yahweh. Then the covenant with God and the people of Israel would cease. LESSON TWO: ACHIEVEMENTS AND FAILURES OF KING SAUL (Israel 13:8 14; 15:7 25) Learning outcomes. After reading about King Saul, you should a. State his achievements b. Identify his failures c. Suggest lesson we can learn from his failures Samuel was directed by God to choose and anoint Saul as the king of Israel. Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin. He became the first human king of the nation of Israel. He accomplished several things. Successes of King Saul 1) He was anointed by God; as king to rule the Israelites 2) He was chosen even though it was not Gods idea for a king over his people. 3) He was a great warrior. He led the Israelites to war and defeated their enemies Failures of King Saul 1) God told Saul through Samuel to destroy the Amalekites completely. Saul however disobeyed God. He spared the king and the fat livestock. He claimed to have spared the fat animals for sacrifice to God. Because of this disobedience, God rejected Saul as king. 2) The Israelites were faced with many enemies. The worst were the Philistines. It was a custom for the king of Israel to enquire from God whether to go to the battle or not. The priest/prophet gave permission to the king to go to war. When Saul was faced with the dilemma whether to fight or not, Samuel enquired from God. Saul did not wait for permission to go to war from Samuel the priest. He decided to bypass Samuel by offering a sacrifice to God before going to war. This action displeased God because it was not his work to offer sacrifice to God. It was the work of priests. 3) After God rejected Saul as the king of Israel, Samuel was guided by God to go to Bethlehem. He was asked to go to the home of Jesse who had eight (8) sons. In that home, God was to show Samuel the next king of Israel. Samuel would then anoint the chosen son of Jesse. Seven of Jesses sons were brought before Samuel one by one. God told Samuel that he had not chosen any of them. When David, a shepherd, was brought before Samuel God said to him this is the one anoint him! (1 Samuel 16:12). David was anointed (poured oil on) as the next king of Israel. However he had to wait until Saul died before he could take over kingship. 4) After Samuel anointed David to become the next king of Israel, Saul was jealous and plotted many times to kill him. David was employed to serve Saul. He played the harp, lyre wherever an evil spirit possessed Saul. 5) When Samuel died; the Philistines gathered to fight Israel. Saul was filled with terror. Saul enquired from God whether he should go to war, but did not get an answer. Saul disobeyed God by asking a medium (witch) to consult the dead for him. This act led to the death of Saul together with his son Jonathan in battle. 6) Saul was concerned with what people thought of him than pleasing God. He wanted to please people and not God. He was disobedient with God (1 Samuel 15:24) Lessons, which Christians can learn from King Sauls failures 1) Value of being patient. 2) Christian should obey God, follow His commands and not be afraid of people. 3) Christian should obey religious leaders placed over them by God. 4) Christian leaders should be humble 5) It is against the teachings of God, against the will of God to consult the spirits of the dead through mediums. 7) Without faith, it is impossible to please God. God desires sincere worship. 9) Political leaders should consult and listen to religious leaders. 10) Christians should not turn against their enemies or rivals. They should not plot to have them destroyed and killed. LESSON THREE: IMPORTANCE OF DAVID (1 Samuel 16: 1 23, 2 Samuel 6:1 15) Learning outcomes. After reading about King David, you should a. State his importance to God and the Israelites b. Analyse achievements and failures of King David c. Trace David lineage up to Jesus Christ d. Narrate fulfillment of the promises to David in the New Testament e. Give reasons why God rejected Davids offer to build him a temple David took over kingship of Israel though some people resisted his rule. At first he ruled the house of Judah. Later on the other tribes rallied behind him. Importance of King David David became king after the death of Saul. He ruled for over 40 years as king of Judah and Israel. Achievements of David 1) He was a brilliant military commander 2) He captured the old fortress of Jerusalem from the Jebusites and made it his capital city. 3) He removed the ark of covenant from the house of Abinadab in Shiloh and brought it to Jerusalem. 4) He expressed great faith in God. Through his faith in God, he was able to kill Goliath, the great Philistine warrior. 5) He was a skilled musician and composed marry psalms that were used and are still being used in temple and church worship. 6) David respected the prophets of God and always consulted them whenever he wanted to do anything. 7) He expanded the geographical boundaries of Israel through conquests. He was a great diplomat and established good political relations with the neighboring kings. 9) He was a shrewd administrator who chose wise elders and counselors to advice him. 10) God promised to establish an everlasting kingdom for David 11) David ruled over Israel, administering law and justice to all people. 12) He took a census of the Israelites and used the information to (a) recruit young men into military service and (2) decide on the policy of taxation. 13) David had remarkable leadership qualities. He was kind. He spared mephibosheth, Sauls grandson. 14) David was humble. He was ready to accept sins he had committed and repent e.g. he repented after committing adultery with Bathsheba. David as an ancestor of Jesus Christ (2 Samuel 1 29, LK 1:26 33) David intended to build a splendid temple for God in Jerusalem. He felt it was not fair for the Ark of the Covenant to continue dwelling in a tent while he himself lived in a magnificent palace. To achieve this goal, David consulted Nathan, the prophet on whether to build the temple. The prophet approved the idea. But that night, Nathan received a revelation form God that stated that David was not to build a house (temple) for God. Davids son would build the temple of God (2 Samuel 7:5 6). Prophet Nathan gave David Gods message to David. The message was that a) His son will build the temple b) God would give Davids descendants a place to settle c) God promised to raise up an heir from the house of David to sit on the throne d) God promised to make Davids name great or famous among all other leaders of the earth. Reasons why God rejected Davids offer to build him a temple Here are some of the reasons: a. David had been involved in a lot of wars with the Israelites enemies and had thus shed a lot of blood. b. God was a God of the people and could not be confined to a house. c. It was the will of God to establish the house of David (build David a house) rather than David builds a house for him (God). The human body is the temple of God. God dwells in the hearts of people. d. David had grown old. God wanted him to rest. e. God had planned that Davids son would build a house for him a place to house the Ark of the Covenant. King Solomon, Davids son built the temple and fulfilled Gods promises to David. Solomons rule was peaceful and prosperous. The New Testament is a fulfillment of Gods promises to David 1) The gospel writers tell us that Jesus was born in the family of David (Luke 1:26 27) 2) The angel of God during the annunciation of the birth of Jesus said that He will be like his ancestor David (Luke 1:32 33) 3) Jesus was born in Bethlehem which was also the birthplace of David (Luke 2:4) 4) Bartimaeus the blind man of Jericho hailed Jesus as the son of David 5) During his triumphal entry to Jerusalem, Jesus was hailed by the crowd as the messiah descended from David. 6) In his genealogy, saint Mathew says that Jesus was a descendant of David (Matt.1: 1) Failures of King David. Although David had many virtues: 1) He ordered Uriah to be placed at the battle forefront so that he can be killed. 2) Uriah was the husband of Bathsheba. David had committed adultery with her. 3) He took Bathsheba as his wife LESSON FOUR: LEADERSHIP OF KING DAVID Lesson outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should assess leadership qualities demonstrated by king David David showed 1) Courage and bravery. David was courageous and brave. Modern leaders should be ready to die with and for their subjects. 2) Gratitude thankful and grateful. David always thanked God for any success or favors he received. Good leaders should be thankful and grateful to God as well as to their fellow human beings. 3) Loyalty. David was loyal to God and to the Israelites. A good leader should be loyal, and never betray his people. 4) Justice. David administered justice to all his subjects without favoring anyone. No tribalism or nepotism. A leader should be fair to all (2 Samuel 8:15). 5) God fearing, having faith. David was God fearing. He expressed his total trust in God. Modern leaders need to emulate this quality. 6) Humility. A leader should be a humble person. Though David had been appointed as the king, he continued to serve Saul until Saul died. He accepted his failures and asked for forgiveness 7) Kind. David was a kind leader. Leaders should be kind. David spared the life of Saul twice yet Saul wanted to kill him. Wisdom. David was careful when choosing legal advisors to assist him in his rule. He was also wise. He reduced tribal jealousies by choosing Jerusalem; a neutral spot for administrative purposes. 9) Delegation a shrewd administrator. A good elder should be able to delegate duties. David delegated duties. He involved others in advising, and administering LESSON FIVE: ACHIEVEMENTS AND FAILURES OF KING SOLOMON (1 KING 3 12) Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should: a. Analyse achievements of king Solomon b. State failures of king Solomon After David died, his son Solomon became the next king. Kingship in Israel was hereditary. Solomon was chosen by David to be his successor. He took over from David at a time of peace and security established by David. Achievements 1) He made Israel rich by establishing trade with other countries 2) He was a good trader and a successful merchant. He traded in copper, horses, timber, silver and gold. He established international trade with the neighboring countries. For example, he traded with Tyre in cedar and pine logs. 3) He established a well equipped large army for Israel 4) He was a builder. He built a magnificent temple for God in line with Gods promise to David. He also constructed other cities (Megiddo) and a palace for himself. 5) He is remembered for his amazing administrative skills. He had 550 officials in charge of labour force. 6) He was a diplomatic ruler. He established friendly ties with his neighbours. This ensured continued peace. For instance he married the daughters of the kings of Egypt, Moab, Eden and Sidon so as to establish strong ties with those nations. 7) He had great wisdom. He judged a difficult case between two women who were claiming ownership of the same child. He composed many wise sayings known as the proverbs of Solomon. He also composed songs like Song of Solomon and Song of Songs and poems in Ecclesiastes. 9) He dedicated the temple of God with great rejoicing. 10) He brought the Ark of the Covenant to the temple of Jerusalem. Failures of King Solomon 1) He married women from many foreign countries. These actions made Solomon break the Torah as Israelites were not supposed to marry foreigners. Through these marriages, idol worship started in Israel. This was because he allowed his wives to worship their gods, build temples and altars for them. This led to introduction of idolatry in Israel. 2) Solomon constructed his palace for 13 years. He then built Gods temple for 7 years. This showed that he probably loved himself more than God. 3) He killed his own half brother Adonija on suspicion that he could be a rival to the throne. 4) Solomon lived lavishly, and expensively. He thus burdened the Israelites with high taxes. 5) He used forced labour. This was the same as enslaving the Israelites. 6) He worshipped idols. Solomons heart was turned to such other gods as Ashtoreth / ashitarte goddess of Sidon and Molech the god of the Ammonites. This was breaking Gods commandments 7) He sold part of Israelite territory to the king of Tyre He used pagan skills when designing, decorating, and furnishing the temple. 9) He made treaties with other nations inspite of the fact that God had forbidden Israel from making treaties 10) He was extravagant. He used a lot of state wealth to entertain and please his many wives and concubines. Activity. Many husbands in Kenya practice polygamy. I want you to find out from your neighbours what are the advantages and disadvantages of polygamy. Then write a paper arguing either for polygamy or monogamy. LESSON SIX: IMPORTANCE OF THE TEMPLE IN ISRAEL Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a) Define a temple b) State the importance of the temple to Israelites. Definition of a temple This is a building dedicated to the worship of God. Solomon built the temple as a fulfillment of the promises that God gave to David, that his son would build a house for him. Importance and uses of a temple 1) It was a centre of worship. Prayers and sacrifices were offered to God from the temple. 2) It symbolized the presence of God among the Israelites. 3) The Ark of the Covenant was kept in the temple as a symbol of Gods presence among his people. 4) The temple acted as a symbol of unity in Israel. Every year all the Israelites had to go to Jerusalem to celebrate such feasts as the Passover, feast of tabernacles day of atonement. This led to the unity of the Israelites. 5) Dedication of children and purification were done in the temple. 6) It was a residence for the priest. 7) It was a business centre where people bought and sold animals needed for sacrifice. The temple acted as a school to the scribes, rabbis and others who studied and interpreted the Mosaic Law. 9) The temple also acted as the judicial court of Israel. Judges worked from the temple 10) It is where religious ceremonies like naming and circumcision of baby boys took place. 11) It was a house of prayer. Revision questions a.

(i.e. areas where Jesus is mentioned as coming from David) d. What are the failures of king Solomon? e. Which leadership qualities can modern leaders learn from David? TOPIC SIX: LOYALTY TO GOD ELIJAH LESSON ONE: EFFECTS OF IDOLATRY IN ISRAEL Introduction After the death of Solomon, the kingdom of Israel split into two countries. the southern kingdom called Judah ruled by King Rehoboam and the Northern kingdom called Israel led by King Jeroboam. Other kings who ruled these two nations were King Abijah, King Asa of Judah, and king Nadab, Baasha, Elah, Zimri, Omri, and Ahab of Israel. During the time of Elijah king Ahab ruled Israel. Learning outcomes. After studying this lesson on idolatry, you should a. State factors that led to spread of idolatry in Israel b. Analyse religious schism between Judah and Israel c. Describe King Ahabs marriage to the Phoenician princess (Tyre) d. Explain the failure to completely destroy temples, and places of worship e. State effects of idolatry in Israel a. Factors that led to spread of idolatry in Israel When Israelites intermarried with other communities, they worshipped their gods. The Bible makes it clear that i There was a lot of influence by Canaanite religion ii There was division /schism of Israel into 2 kingdoms iii Ahabs married the Phoenician princess iv Israelites did not destroy all gods after settling in Canaan. Influence of the local Canaanite religion Idolatry is the worship of idols. An idol is an image representing a god made using precious materials such as gold, bronze, stone, and hardwood images kept in the places of worship. God had forbidden Israelites from bowing down to images and worshipping idols, intermarrying with non-Israelites, and making treaties. When Israelites settled in Canaan, they forgot Gods commandments. They intermarried and were greatly influenced by the local religion. Israelites changed from being pastoralist to farmers. They therefore worshipped Baal the god of rain, agricultural fertility, and storms. Israelites worshipped Baal, for rain for their crops. The Israelites were also attracted to the visible gods of Canaan as opposed to the invisible Yahweh. This is how idolatry spread in Israel. However some Israelites maintained worship of Yahweh only (monotheistic) while others worshipped Yahweh and Baal (syncretism). Characteristics of the Canaanite religion. Canaanite religion was: 1. Polytheistic. They worshipped many gods. The Israelites religion was monotheistic. They worshipped Yahweh and no other God. They abandoned their religion and worshipped many gods like Canaanite. This influenced the Israelites. 2. A nature religion. The gods were related with the forces of nature such as rain, sun, storms, drought, famine, wind, water and death. 3. Ensured continued fertility of land, people, animals 4. Based on many families of gods. There was a. EL Chief god who was their father, king, creator b. Asherah wife of El the goddess of motherhood and fertility c. Baal also referred to as Baal Hadad, son of El and Asherah the god of rain, agricultural fertility, storms d. Astarte wife of Baal -the goddess of war e. Anat sister of Baal the goddess of war and love f. Maat the goddess of love g. Mot most feared. The god of drought, famine and death 5. Free and temple of prostitution. Israelites turned to temple prostitution. Women who wanted to increase vitality of their husbands had sexual relations with the male priests in the Baal temples. 6. Had many places of worship. One could pray in the temple, under sacred trees, and on top of the hills among others. 7. Based on offerings and sacrifices of human beings. Exercise. State differences between Israel and Canaanite religion b. Religious schism between Judah and Israel Schism occurred among the Israelites because there were sharp differences within them. These differences were religious, political and social. After the death of Solomon, the nation of Israel was split. Rehoboam ruled one group while the other was ruled by Jeroboam. Because of this split, Jeroboam could not go to Jerusalem to worship in the temple. He thus set up other places of worship one at Bethel, and another at Dan. Jeroboam also set up images to represent Yahweh. Though he had no intention of Idol worship, it turned out to be so because he made his subjects to offer sacrifices to these golden calves, which he had designed as images representing Yahweh. He also built places of worship on hilltops like the Canaanites. He chose priests from other families in addition to the Levite Family. Furthermore, he organised religious festivals and feasts in the month of his choice. As it were, they coincided with the Canaanites calendars. He then burnt incense at the altar of idols. Jeroboam therefore started idol worship and gave room for idolatry. Kings who succeeded him followed this idol worship. c. King Ahabs marriage to the Phoenician/Tyre princess Ahab married Jezebel, the daughter of the King Ethbaal of Sidon (Tyre) to strengthen ties with Tyre/Phoenicia. Queen Jezebel was ambitious, and a strong follower of Baal religion. Ahab allowed her to bring her gods to Israel. She forced Israelites to worship Baal and not Yahweh. She imported 450 prophets of Baal and supported them using public treasury. Ahab built a temple to Baal In Samaria. He also put up an image of goddess Asherah. d. When Israelites settled in Canaan, they did not destroy temples, places of worship, idols, images that they found there. As a result Canaanites religious practices influenced Israelites worship of Yahweh leading to idolatry. The effects of idolatry harmed Israelites as: 1) Syncretism developed. This was a process of mixing beliefs and practices from different religions. Israelites worshipped Yahweh and the gods of Canaan. 2) Former places of worship for the Canaanite gods were used as places of worship for Yahweh 3) The Canaanite agricultural calendar was adopted by Israelites 4) Names of the Canaanite gods were used for Yahweh. For example, EL was referred to as Yahweh 5) Parents began naming their children after Baal. 6) Feasts and celebrations were changed to correspond with those of Canaanites when they celebrated their feasts. 7) King Ahab declared worship of Baal as the state religion Queen Jezebel ordered the destruction of the altars of Yahweh 9) Prophets of Yahweh were killed. Elijah went into hiding. 10) The 450 prophets of Baal were made the officials of the royal court in order to promote and protect Baal religion 11) Israel started to experience long droughts because Yahweh withdrew his blessings. This made Israel worshippers of El LESSON TWO: ELIJAHS FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION AND FALSE RELIGION IN ISRAEL Learning outcomes. After studying Elijah, you should a. Describe the contest at Mount Carmel b. Explain how Elijah fought against corruption c. Explain the relationship between Ahab and Naboth d. Describe Gods sentence to Ahab. e. Relate Elijahs encounter with Yahweh at Mt. Horeb f. Identify forms of corruption a) The contest at Mount Carmel (1 King 18:17 46). Carmel refers to the vineyard of the Lord. King Ahab brought trouble to Israel because of worshipping the idols of Baal. Elijah told Ahab that the problems Israel was facing were due to worship of Baal, The decision. Elijah requested king Ahab to call a meeting at Mt Carmel. In attendance would be all Israelites, 450 prophets of Baal, and 400 prophets of the goddess Asherah who were supported by Queen Jezebel and Elijah Elijah told Israelites it was decision time. They had to choose their God. Would it be Yahweh, the God of Israel or Baal the god of Jezebel of Phoenician/Tyre. If it was to be Baal, then they were told to follow him, if they select Yahweh as their God then they were to follow him (1 kings 18 vs. 21). The choice. Elijah proposed a contest between him and Baal prophets. He asked for two bulls one for him, the other for 450 prophets of Baal. The contest was who can light fire? Yahweh or Baal? He proposed that Baal prophets and himself be given each a bullock. Both shall cut the bull into pieces and put them on wood without lighting fire. The Baal prophets shall pray to their god and Elijah shall pray to the Lord. The one who sends fire to consume the sacrifices .. he is God. The people of Israel accepted Elijahs proposal. Actions. The prophets of Baal prayed first because they were many. They took the bull, prepared it and prayed to Baal until noon (vs. 26). They prayed louder, and cut themselves with knives and daggers; but there were no answer. The prophets of Baal kept on ranting and raving until evening but there was no answer (vs. 29). Elijah asked people to gather near him. He prepared the altar of the Lord to repair work. He took 12 stones representing the 12 tribes of Israel (who were named after the 12 sons of Jacob or Israel) and used them to rebuild the altar. He then dug a trench around the altar. This trench could hold 14 litres of water. He placed the wood on the altar; cut the bull into pieces and laid them on the wood. He asked for four barrels of water and poured it on the offering and wood. He poured water on the altar three times until the water overflowed, run around the altar and filled the trenches. Elijah then called on the Lord O Lord, the God of Abraham, prove now that you are the God of Israel and that am your servant and have done all this at your command (vs. 29). The Lord sent fire down and it burnt up the sacrifice, wood, stones, and dust and licked up the water that was in the trench. When people saw this, they proclaimed The Lord, is God; the Lord alone is God. Elijah asked people to arrest the prophets of Baal, led them down to the river Kishon and killed them. And after this there was rain in Israel (vs.40). Lessons learnt from Mt. Carmel. Israelites acknowledged that Yahweh is: i Is their only God and that Baal was not God ii Is powerful iii Is a merciful God iv Is a jealous God as He will have no other gods but him v Is a God of justice who punishes idolaters and sinners vi Answers prayer vii Is a forgiving true God viii Protects his servants b) Elijahs fight against corruption (1 Kings 21: 1 29) Corruption is defined as dishonesty. Its a form of injustice when dealing with either an individual or the community for selfish gain and benefit. In a corrupt society people in leadership or with wealth take advantage of the weak, and the poor. The powerful exploit the poor and the powerless by denying them their rights. An example of corruption in Israel is the story of the Naboths Vineyard. Naboths vineyard. Ahab wanted Naboth to either sell to him his vineyard or exchange it with another vineyard. Naboth refused to sell his inheritance. Jezebel, on seeing that Ahab was sorrowful told him that she will get him Naboths vineyard. Jezebel sent out letters in Ahabs name to the elders of the city. She found two witnesses who could bear witness that Naboth had blasphemed God and king Ahab. Witnesses testified that Naboth had blasphemed God. He was stoned to death. God then sent Elijah to meet with Ahab as he went to possess the vineyard of Naboth. Gods sentence to Ahab. God pronounced to Ahab through Elijah that (1) dogs shall lick his own blood from the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth (2) His sons shall be killed (3) Dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel (4) Evil shall be brought upon Ahabs house. This was because Ahab had broken these commandments:
The 6th commandment which forbids murder The 9th commandment which forbids bearing of false witness. Ahab allowed his wife to bear false witness against Naboth
10th Commandments you shall not covet your neighbors property.
Elijahs encounter with Yahweh at Mt. Horeb (Mr. Sinai) 1 Kings 19 After killing the prophets of Baal, Elijah was threatened by Jezebel. She vowed to kill him. Elijah ran away to the wilderness. The angel of God fed him with a loaf of bread and a jar of water. After eating and drinking Elijah walked to Mt. Sinai the holy mountain of God. He stayed there for 40 days and 40 nights. In the mountain God appeared to him. There was a strong wind, an earthquake, a fire but the Lord was not in them. Then the lord spoke to Elijah in a still small voice. God told Elijah return and anoint Hazael as king of Syria, Jehu as king of Israel, and anoint Elisha as a prophet and your successor. Self-assessment question.

TOPIC SEVEN: SELECTED ASPECTS OF AFRICAN RELIGIOUS HERITAGE. Introduction All Traditional African Communities believe in a Supreme Being who is the origin and sustainer of all things: He is the creator of the university and all that it contains. All Africans agree that nobody has ever seen God. Therefore, nobody can really describe Him, yet through their religious insights, Africans have formulated ideal about the nature of God. These ideas concern His real being and His activities. Traditional religion refers to African culture that existed in the sub Saharan Africa. African traditional culture had no scriptures or texts because most of it was oral. It was preserved and handed down from generation to generation-through oral traditions; ceremonies; rituals, and leading personalities. Learning outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to a) Explain and appreciate the African concept of God spirits and ancestors b) Identify attributes of God c) Explain the African understanding of the hierarchy of beings d) Describe the role of God, spirits and ancestors e) Explain the responsibilities of the living towards God, spirits and ancestors f) Describe the traditional African way of worshipping God, venerating and communicating with the ancestors and spirits. LESSON ONE: AFRICAN CONCEPT OF GOD, SPIRITS AND ANCESTORS Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. Describe the African concept of his/her religion b. State attributes of God c. Draw a diagram showing hierarchy of beings Africans believed in existence of a supreme being who lived in mountains, clouds and the sky. God was the creator of the universe. In African traditions, religion was integrated in every aspect of life and daily activities. For example, farming activities involved God, spirits and ancestors. People would pray to God, spirits ancestors so as to ask for blessings in order to have a good harvest. Livestock keepers believed that fertility of their animals is a result of the blessings of God. If God was appeased, animals would increase. Natural phenomena such as thunder, lightning, rain; good harvest, and birth were linked to the Supreme Being and the invisible world. If there were calamities such as drought, disease, famine, and death, it was an indication that God, spirits and ancestors were displeased with humankind. Many communities have invocations uttered through out the day Nature or Attributes of god God is described with many names, which are Gods attributes. These are among others: a) God is Good Nearly all-African communities describe God as being good to all people and things. He gives rain, sunshine and life among many other gifts. b) God is merciful. The Akamba refer to God as God of pity, the merciful one. God shows mercy in times of danger, illness, difficulty or anxiety. c) God is holy. He is pure, holy and does not make mistakes. Yoruba call him God who is pure, without blemish. The Kikuyu say God is Possessor of whiteness and the Bukusu master whitewash. African traditions all approach God with reverence, fear, respect and honor. For example when offering sacrifices, they would offer a one-colour animal either white, black, or brown and not a spotted animal. d) God is powerful i.e. Omnipotent. God is described as almighty. His power is expressed in natural occurrences like thunder, lighting, earthquakes, rains, and floods. e) God is all knowing (Omniscient). God knew all things; nothing can be hidden from him. He discerns hearts. f) God is all present (Omnipresent).He is present everywhere in the universe g) God is limitless. God has no limit. He is both very far and very near, beyond and within. h) God is transcendent .God cannot be exhausted by human imagination. He is unexplainable, beyond human experience and understanding. i) God is all understanding j) God is self existent .He made all things but he himself is not made. He exists on his own. Zulu explain that God is he who is of himself. k) God is a spirit He is invisible, and everlasting.. Shilluk of Sudan refer to him as great spirit the formless spirit. l) God is everlasting. God is eternal, never changes, and never dies. The Yoruba call him the mighty immovable rock that never dies. m) God is God created the creator .The world Kikuyu call him Mumbi n) God is just. Kikuyu refer to God as Mugai meaning divider. One who shares out. God judges fairly, punishes those who do wrong and rewards the good with blessings. o) God is the provider. All communities acknowledge that God provides them with everything they have. Africans built representation of the power of God. They identified sites, places and things that represented the presence and power of God. For example things like big trees, thick forest, high mountains, unique rock formations and large rivers and animals. In these places they built sites, and shrines. Shrines were regarded as holy and people approached them with reverence Spirits. They were believed to exist between God and human beings in the universe. Spirits were diverse and created by God. Some spirits were dead human beings. Spirits were divided into nature, sky, earth and human spirits that were either long dead (ghosts) or recently dead (ancestors). There were different types of spirits. These were: a. Divinities. These are spirits created by God. They are close to God and act as his agents. They are in charge of natural phenomena like the sun, moon and stars. They are intermediaries between God and ancestral spirits, human beings and other creatures. They reveal Gods plans through diviners and mediums b. Human spirits / common spirits. These are inferior to divinities but higher than human kind. They are remains of human beings after their death. These spirits monitor human activities. Human spirits have lost their names and are not longer remembered by the living. They are believed to live in the under world, undergrounds, in thick bushes, forests, rivers, mountains, lakes, skies, and caves among other places. These spirits can bring harm to the living if disrespected. They appear to people in dreams or in form of shadows. They can also enter or possess a person and cause abnormalities. 3. Ancestors / living dead These are spirits of the recently dead. They are remembered by the living when children are named after them. They are actively involved in the lives and activities of the living. Their offerings (food or drink) are poured on the ground for them to receive. Ancestors are in a period of transition between the living and the higher categories. They are believed to know the problems of the living and therefore consulted constantly. They are also associated with evil such as revenge for burying them without honor, or not following the instructions they gave before they died or failing to pour them libations. When they are happy with the living, they are a source of blessings. Ancestors who did evil things or committed suicide are forgotten and ignored. Hierarchy of beings. Hierarchy means the order or ranking from the highest to the lowest of created beings. At the top is Divinities God is the creator. The Akamba community believed that God whom they called Mulungu created man and woman. He then tossed them to the earth. The Luhya claim God created them from the black topsoil hence their skin complexion. God is the source of life and giver of life. Barren women pray to God to ask for children. Human beings depend on God for life, rain, air, and sunshine. God is the provider. He gave domestic animals to human beings for their use. Domestic animals have many uses such as repayment of dowry, food, and sacrifices to God, payment of a fine by an offender. Many wild animals are used in folk songs and tales to discourage cowardice, and laziness God is a protector of human beings from evil. God is the giver of moral laws and a judge of people God offers solutions to mans problems through mediums, and prophets God gives power to the specialists such as medicine men, women and priests. God punishes people for wrongdoing Wild animals such as hyena are used in folk stories to discourage cowardice. Stories of tortoise illustrate the importance of being slow but sure. Snakes in some communities such as the Luhya were not killed. The community believed snakes were immortal ancestors coming to visit the living. Plants were used as food for people and animals. Trees were used for fuel and building materials. Some trees were used as sacred places of worship. Non-living things such as the rain, rocks, and rivers had a religious importance. Rain is seen as a blessing from God. When rain fails, diviner/rain maker was consulted. Rocks, and mountains were believed to be dwelling places for the living, the dead and the spirits. The spirits were viewed as neither good nor evil. Human beings feared them. Their roles were many. They; i Appeared in dreams especially to diviners, priests, medicine men and women, and rain makers to relay information ii Were consulted by religious specialists to find the cause of a problem in a given situation. iii Were bad (naughty) spirits, which disturbed people. African communities believed that bad sprits could call out ones name but on turning theres no one. iv Were manipulated by some human beings to cause harm to others v Relayed Gods messages to human beings. vi Sometimes possessed a person causing the person to be sent away from the village to the forest, or a way from home. vii Acted as intermediaries between humans, divinities and God. Role of ancestors is to: - 1) Appear to families in dreams, and visions. 2) Give family instructions i.e. what should be done. 3) Rebuke those who fail to honor them and warn them of impending punishment 4) Act as mediators between the living and God. 5) Enquire about family affairs as they considered as members of the family 6) Request for sacrifice of an animal which is slaughtered for them 7) Cause illness or mental disturbance to members of a family if they are disregarded or disobeyed. Preserve the culture of a community 9) Welcome those who die to the spirit world. LESSON THREE: RESPONSIBILITY OF THE LIVING TOWARDS GOD, SPIRITS, AND ANCESTORS Learning outcome. After studying this lesson, you should a. State responsibilities of the living to God, spirits, and ancestors b. Explain the various forms of worship Responsibilities of living include Human beings are expected to worship God, spirits and ancestors and show (i) reverence and respect or veneration to God. They are also expected to (i) pray (ii) sing and (iii) dance. Worship. This is our major responsibility as God expects us to meet and communicate with the spiritual world and God. There are several ways of worshipping God. These include among others: (a) Sacrifices and offerings. Sacrifices include shedding of blood of animals and birds. Offerings are in the form of foodstuffs, milk, water and honey. God was worshipped because He is recognized as the absolute owner of life and property. We also worship God in order to (i) invoke Him for special blessings (ii) thank Him (iii) express our personal fellowship and communion with God (iv) avert or prevent evil. Evils bring about epidemics, famine, floods, and drought. (b) Singing and dancing. Africans worshipped God through singing, dancing, clapping of hands, drumming, and use of musical instruments. (c)Prayers, invocations and blessings. Prayers were accompanied with sacrifices or offerings. Community leaders prayed to God, spirits and ancestors. (d) Invocations are shortened form of prayers e.g. Help me oh God Oh great God. These are prayers at the spur of the moment. They are few words full of meaning and calling for help form God. (e) Formal blessings. An elder or older person gave blessings. It is believed that the person blessing the other one is doing so on behalf of God. (f) Venerations. Africans treated their ancestors with great respect and honor. They for example worshiped ancestors daily. Worshipping included placing food or pouring libation of beer, milk, water and honey for the spirits. As this act was done, they uttered words to accompany the offerings. Libations were done daily by some communities. (g). Ancestors were honored by:
Mentioning their names at prayers was offered to God. Naming children after them. Inviting them to participate in family ceremonies and rituals. For
example during birth, and initiation. Maintaining their graves well. Giving the dead a decent burial clapping their hands. As they dance, sit and sing, diviners lose their senses and get possessed by the spirit. The spirits speak give them messages for individuals and communities. Spirits communicate on issues such as (i) lost property (ii) revealing by name the enemy in the society (iii) making demands on the living (iv) giving advice (v) giving warnings on impending danger and (vi) making promises to bless a family or clan. Spirits that possess mediums are not harmful. There are bad evil spirits harmful to people whom they possess. Some evil spirits cut themselves; others throw themselves into a fire, river, and lake. Revision questions a) Explain African beliefs about god ( or qualities) b) Describe the African understanding of the hierarchy of being c) Describe the role of the ancestors to the living d) What was the responsibility of the living towards God? e) Describe the T.A. ways of worshipping God. TOPIC EIGHT: AFRICAN MORAL AND CULTURAL VALUES Learning Outcomes By the end of the topic, you should be able to a Explain the meaning of life and its wholeness in the traditional African society b Explain the African concept of community and kingship system c Outline the factors contributing to harmony and mutual responsibility in the African communities d Describe rites of passage and their role inculcating moral values in the traditional African society e Explain the role of religious specialist and their relevance in modern society f Explain the African moral values g Discuss and evaluate continuity and change in the African understanding of leisure, dress, old age, widows, orphans, dowry, community, land, medicine, worship and property. LESSON ONE: MEANING OF LIFE AND ITS WHOLENESS IN THE TRADITIONAL AFRICAN SOCIETY Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson you should be able to:- 1. Describe the meaning and wholeness of life in the traditional African society 2. Describe the African understanding of a community Life originates from God and it progress from one stage to another with a certain rhythm each person has to follow. Each stage of life is marked by rites of passage. Life is continuous and unending. Each person is expected to value life and to be responsible. Life involves sharing. It is immoral to be greedy and self centred. People are to be hospitable, warm and caring toward other people. Unity and harmony are to be upheld. Life is viewed as whole only if a person went through all the stages or rites of passage Life was propagated through bearing children. Life cannot be divided into religious and secular. Every element of life has a religious meaning. Life is communal. Life was celebrated at every stage. Everyone depends on others. Labour was divided. There were duties for men, children and women. In African traditional society, human life is precious. Murder was condemned harshly. Suicide was considered the worst thing anyone could do. It was seen as a curse on the family. If one died at childhood, it was regarded as abortion. Death did not mark the end of life. Death is referred to as saying goodbye to food, sleeping, going home, being called by the ancestors. African concept of a community A community is a group of people who share a common language, religion, and culture and may live in the same geographical location. This group of people or an ethnic group shares common interests and characteristics. For example, African communities:
Share common features, and interests Have the same origin and are likely to be related by blood. Share a common language. Live together and inhabit the same geographical location. Are divided into smaller units called clans
A clan is made up of people who have the same forefather. A clan is composed of families. A family is made up of members (living or dead) who are related by blood and marriage. Family members therefore include the ancestors and the unborn. LESSON TWO: KINSHIP SYSTEM IN AFRICAN COMMUNITIES Learning outcomes. After studying African kinship system in African communities, you should be able to: a. Explain the importance of kinship system b. Give factors that contribute to harmony and mutual responsibility Kinship refers to the relationships between people. These can be by blood, marriage or adoption. People that belong to the same kinship system are referred to as kin. Importance of kinship system and ties Kinship relationships were and still are important among African communities. This is because these ties: i Provided company. This ensured that people were not lonely. ii Provided a sense of belonging which one of the human needs. We all want to belong iii Controlled social relationships between people related by blood or marriage. iv Promoted mutual responsibility and help v Enhanced a sense of security which is a human need vi Regulated marital customs, rules and regulations. vii Enabled people to live peacefully and in harmony. viii Bind the community together enhancing social cohesion and loyalty to each other ix Facilitated care for the disadvantaged members of community. x Ensured that all members of the community are have knowledge of community beliefs and practices xi Provided a peaceful way of settling disputes. xii Provided mechanisms for proper inheritance of property for example land. Factors contributing to harmony and mutual responsibility in African communities. These are many. Some of them are (i) rites of passage (2) good morals (3) participation in communal activities such as ceremonies, work, leisure activities and worship (4) sharing of property and ideas (5) division of labour. Tasks were distributed according to ones age, gender and status. (6) rules/social norms regulated how people grew up; knowing what is wrong and right. Good morals help people to live in peace and harmony LESSON THREE: RITES OF PASSAGE Learning outcomes. I expect you to read this lesson and a. Name the main stages of human life b. Explain the rite of circumcision in your community c. Narrate initiation rituals d. Discuss the importance of marriage in your community with peers e. State the importance of funeral and burial rites. In traditional African society, there were four main stages of life. These were (i) birth and naming (ii) initiation (iii) marriage and (iv) old age and death Birth and naming When a woman conceived, and pregnancy was visible, she was treated specially. She wore charms to keep away evil eyes. She ate special food and avoided sexual relations. The family and husband did not expect her to perform heavy task. When she was ready to deliver, mid wives helped in delivery. After delivery, the placenta was seen as a sign of fertility hence it was buried in the fertile land such as a banana plantation. Some communities preserved placenta while others threw it into a running stream. Birth The arrival of a baby and its sex was announced through ululations or shouts. The placenta was disposed off ceremoniously. The mother was purified and baby protection rites were conducted. Once purified, a mother could wear charms to protect herself and the baby from malicious spirits, sorcery, witchcraft, and evil eyes. Thanksgiving ceremonies were performed to show gratitude to God. The hair of the mother and child was shaved as a sign of purification and newness of life. Naming Naming of babies was carefully chosen. A baby could be named after either a season, weather, ancestors, place or time of delivery, occasion, experience of mother during delivery, significance events such as war, and drought, personality of the child, and names of heroes and gods. A good example is the name Were amongst the Luhya. Twins had special names. Initiation the second rite of passage. There were different types of initiations such as circumcision for boys and clitorisdectomy for girls, excision of teeth and body marks. Initiation rites were important and every individual was expected to go through them or be rendered an outcast. Initiation practices were seen as tests for courage and bravery. They helped the communities when identifying future leaders and warriors. Initiation was very important in communities where it was practiced. Initiation marked a transition from childhood to adulthood. In this transition, the initiate acquired new rights, new status in life, and privileges. For example the new initiates were allowed to marry, own property, and inherit the fathers property. In addition the initiates received specialized education. They were taught how to behave as adults, warriors, future husbands and parents. The education brought families, relatives and friends together. This act strengthened kinship ties. It also prepared the initiates to face the difficulties and challenges of adult life. In addition, initiation helped to structure the community. Initiation was programmed to fit an age set; and it marked passage of specific time. Thus each initiation ceremony was held regularly, normally between 16 21 years of age. If you calculate, you can see that 16 to 21 years introduced a new age set or group of young people. The age set held power for 16 to 21 years and handed over to the new generation. Initiation was therefore a mark of identity. It gave the initiate a sense of belonging. It bonded the initiates together with the ancestors. Initiation rituals are not popular today as they were in the past. This is because many communities have undergone social and cultural changes because of modern education. As a result some families take their sons to hospitals to be circumcised to prevent HIV/AIDs and to avoid infections because of unhygienic traditional initiation practices. Other reasons are (i) urbanization and migration, (ii) individualization (iii) Christians religious values. These have made some communities abandon some rites e.g. clitorisdectomy and (iv) some countries have made girls circumcision illegal and an issue of human and health rights. Attitude to birth and naming There has been a change in attitude to birth and naming. This is because initiation is no longer a community but a family affair. In addition, pregnant women attend antenatal clinics. Majority of pregnant women give birth in hospitals and health centres. Thus a doctor and not a midwife announce the sex of the baby. In modern society, the mother and child are no longer secluded. Lastly most parents prefer western names for their babies. Marriage was a requirement for all members of the community. It was a source of status in the community. Since a leader had to be married. Young men and women married after initiation. Marriage was a happy occasion and a source of wealth. The father gave young initiates some animals for dowry. Fathers of girls received dowry payments, as bride price was mandatory. It was given to the parents of the girl in form of (a) Cows (b) Goats (c) Camels (d) Jewellery (e) Poultry. The young men inherited the fathers property. Importance of dowry. Dowry unified the community. When young women were married, their parents lost their labour. Dowry payments compensated for this loss. Men paid dowry as a sign of commitment to their wife and parents. Importance of marriage Marriage was sacred. It was and ordained by God. Marriage created new social relationships and expanded web of kinships. During the marriage ceremonies the whole community rejoiced, and feasted together. The newly married couple learnt new knowledge and skills. The community and society respected the newly married couple. Children born from this union propagated and ensured continuity of family, and the community. Modern community and marriage. There has been a change in attitude towards marriage. As a result: marriage is no longer seen as sacred and divorce is common. In addition, dowry has been commercialized, as it is no longer seen as important. Some young men do not pay dowry. In fact marriage is no longer seen as a sign of status Children were important in marriage. Barren women were frowned upon. Polygamy solved issues of childlessness. Couples without children can now adopt them from the Child Welfare society. Divorce. This was very rare. It happened only if the girl (i) was not a virgin (ii) practiced witchcraft (iii) and did not show respect towards her husband. Old age and death. This is the age of wisdom. Old people were respected. Grey hair was a sign of respect and wisdom. In all culture, the elders were the custodians of the law, norms and regulations. Social and religious specialists were seers, rainmakers, priests, diviners, and medicine men among others Death. Old age is followed by death. It was seen as a transition into the spiritual life. Besides old age, many cultures believed that death was due to either breaking of the traditional customs and taboos, curses, evil spirits, witchcraft, war, diseases and epidemics. Burial rites were performed in many African communities. Disposing of the dead body. Several methods were used to dispose the body. These were burials, leaving bodies in the forest, and throwing body to animals or placing the body in an abandoned house. African communities believed that animals carried the spirit of the dead person to the next life. Burial rites were performed by the bereaved. They buried the body with ones person belongings and tools. Thus if a person was a great warrior, he was buried with a war coat. Celebrations accompanied funeral rites. Funeral songs (dirges) were performed. There was drinking and eating. Importance of funeral and burial rites Burial rites created a good relationship between the dead and the living. They were therefore given to appease the world of spirits, express unity in the society, cleanse the remaining relatives and obey the customs of the community. Rituals that were performed depended on the community. Some of the rituals for the dead included. a) Shaving of heads. Some mourners shaved their hair completely, while others shaved in a specific pattern. b) Dancing and singing, and giving gifts to the bereaved family c) Mourning (d) Drum beating (e) Horn blowing 9f) Grave side fires Here are some questions to make you think about marriages 1. In your opinion, what has brought changes in modern marriages? 2. Explain why divorce is rising in Kenya and Africa. 3. What changes do we see in contemporary marriages? 4. What has brought about these changes? 5. What are the major causes of death in Kenya today? LESSON FOUR: RELIGIOUS SPECIALISTS AND THEIR RELEVANCE IN MODERN SOCIETY Learning outcome. After studying this lesson, 1. Identify religious specialists 2. State the role of medicine men, priests, mediums, prophets, diviners, and seers 3. Describe roles of herbalists, elders, and rainmakers 4. Explain the role of religious specialists in your culture Religious specialists include Medicine men / healers, Herbalists, Diviners, Mediums, Prophets / Seers, Rainmakers, Priests and Elders. Religious specialists were given power by their parents who taught them religious duties. Others received divine call through dreams and visions. A few learnt from experts via apprenticeship. This is learning by observing and practicing what one sees the master teacher doing. Roles of the medicine women/men in the Community. Medicine women/men are healers who were and are respected by the community. This is because they were and are able to: 1) Treat and heal the sick 2) Solve serious and complicated chronic illnesses 3) Give medicine in form of powder, herbs, minerals or liquid form and observed patients swallowing, drinking, sniffing, and applying on the skin. 4) Offer prayers and sacrifices to God 5) Give charms to protect individual persons from evil spirits. 6) Perform specialized medical roles in some communities in spite of the fact that we have modern hospitals, counselors and psychologists. Elders were and still are community leaders. They were not religious specialists but the community gave elders duties, which made them close to religious leaders. Herbalists and their relevance. Herbalists were synonymous with witch doctors. They cured people through herbs just like the medicine women/men. Communities belief: that herbalists are witchdoctors and possess magical powers. Herbalists continue to be consulted as witch doctors or waganga. Today herbalists do religious tasks that were traditionally done by diviners. Diviners were able to find hidden secrets and knowledge; reveal witches and thieves. They communicated with spirits and enhanced the work of healers and medicine people. They worked as medicine people and were healers of people. They used magic powers and predicted future occurrences. They used items such as pebbles, water, bones or gourds in divination. They also warned of future calamities. They were mediators between God, ancestors and the people. To be a diviner, one had to be trained. There was a specialized curriculum prepared by diviners. Relevance of diviners in modern society. Diviners (witchdoctor mganga) are not popular today and are hardly consulted. But the unfortunate Kenyans consult them who: need a job, promotion, and children. This consultation is secret. Mediums were channels of communication between the living and the spirits of peoples ancestors. The ancestor spirits possessed mediums and through them ancestors gave information and messages to their relatives. Priests were religious leaders and functionaries. They were intermediaries between people, ancestors, spirits and God. Their work was to make sacrifices and give offerings on behalf of the people. They officiated during planting and harvesting rituals. They offered prayers and blessed the needy. They cared for the shrines and poured libations to the ancestors. They led the community in public worship. They were political heads and judges. Today, traditional priests are not relevant since most Kenyans follow several religious practices like Christianity, Hindus, Islam and many others. But there are however, a few traditional priests who take care of community shrines. Prophets / Seers predicted the future. They foretold events such as invasions, wars, drought, and epidemics. They gave advice. They also performed religious duties. They could bless and curse. Religious prophets are common today but traditional prophets are not common. Rainmakers were responsible for bringing or withholding rain to a community. They interpreted weather conditions. They performed certain rituals like asking God for rains. They were highly respected in the society. Modern science has replaced rainmakers Meteorological departments have made the rainmakers redundant. Elders were custodians of community values and secrets. They acted as educators. They gave punishment to offenders of social norms/rules. They acted as counselors and guided the youth on matters of sex and marriage. They helped in maintaining roles for important religious functions, such as rites of passage. They were political leaders in the community. They were negotiators and solved conflicts since they settled family disputes especially agreements concerning land. They were custodians of the traditional values, customs and history of the people. Relevance. Elders are relevant in modern society. They are referred to as village elders and are recognized by the government of Kenya. LESSON FIVE: AFRICAN MORAL VALUES Introduction. African communities were regulated by a strict code of laws and moral values. In this lesson we shall study moral values, which regulated individual members of society as well as the community itself. Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should 1. Give examples of cultural values 2. Define moral values 3. Identify forms of misconduct 3. State a punishment for each misconduct What is a cultural value? These are community practices and beliefs. Each community has cultural values that it accepts and upholds. These cultural values are laws, customs, and forms of behaviour, regulations, rules, observances and taboos. The cultural values form a moral code, which regulates the community. For example, if the culture, values private property, it will have laws that forbid theft of property. These laws are cultural values. Cultural values influence the social order and peace. God gives peace and harmony. God is seen as the giver and guardian of the law. Disobedience was and still is regarded as evil, wrong and was and still is punishable by law. What is a moral value? Moral values are standards of behaviour towards others. They are based on what is valued by the community. Moral values are also positive attitudes. Each community decided what is important to it and what is desirable for its members to practice and uphold. The moral values that communities observed were many. They included amongst others: 1. Hospitality and Love for self and others. This is the habit of welcoming all people, treating oneself and others well. Members of the community were taught how to be hospitable to visitors, strangers and how to assist the needy. 2. Honesty. This is developing good habits like telling the truth, Loyalty, Respect, Co operation with all. 3. Obedience to parents, elders, community leaders and elders. Cultural regulations were followed and adhered to leading 4. Caring for others. This is being responsible to members of the community 5. Developing social moral behaviour like Humility, Sharing, Responsibility, Chastity, Integrity, Tolerance, Perseverance, and Courtesy 6. Working Hard. Do chores. These were according to sex, age and social- economic status. 7. Cooperation. Members cooperated and worked together with others. Moral values were learnt in the process of socialization. Leisure activities helped in acquisition of moral values. Learning moral values was a lifelong process. The most valued behaviour was obedience. Children were to obey their parents; wives obey their husbands; community obeys their leaders, and elders. Learning to obey was a life long process. An obedient person was respected and rewarded. Misconducts. There were taboos that the community observed. Failure to obey community laws resulted in punishments. The community did not allow stealing of livestock. Domestic animals were the most valued private property. Individuals owned livestock while land ownership was communal. There were many forms of punishment for stealing livestock and committing other crimes. For example a. Payment of heavy fines to replace stolen livestock b. Being beaten in a sack c. Thrown down a hill d. Cast out of community. Thieves and murders built their homes at the outskirts of the community. They were not allowed to interact anymore with the members of the community. e. Being covered with dry banana leaves and then set on fire. LESSON SIX: CONTINUITY AND CHANGE Introduction Learning outcome. From this lesson, you should be able to: 1. Compare traditional and modern way of life 2. Trace property ownership in traditional and modern communities 3. Explain how money economy has affected the traditional way of life 4. State how communities can look after orphans, widows, and old people Community. Formal education introduced the western way of life. Employment and trade forced Africans to leave their villages to look for employment and markets in towns. These actions led to urbanization and pluralism. As a result different communities came to towns and lived together. 1. Paid employment. Workers were paid by money. The concept of money changed community life. Individualism ownership of money replaced communalism 2. Land used to be communal. There was plenty of land for everyone. But changes were brought by modern life. For example, health improved and people lived longer. There were fewer deaths and population increased. With money, there was an expansion of trade. Individuals started buying land with money instead of clearing forests. Modern life changed the concept of land. Individual started owning land. The colonial governments introduced policies about land ownership in different African countries. In communities where education was accepted and money economy took over from livestock economy, communal land disappeared. Parents did not have land for inheritance. As a result, people moved and bought land away from their ancestral birthplaces. This resulted in both migrations and immigrations. 3. Property. Traditionally property included land, cattle (Livestock), women/ wives, and children. In African traditional culture, this property belonged to men or the first-born son in paternal societies. In maternal communities, it belonged to wives and daughters. Today property or wealth is in different forms such as money, buildings, vehicles, land, shares, stock, jewels, insurance, and others. Women, men and children own property. Because of this, the status of a person is measured by property. Dowry Bride price / bride wealth In African societies, bride price was very important. It was given in various forms. For example cows, animals skin, and camels. Today dowry is commercialized. Its mainly in form of cash money. This has made marriage costly for the poor. Some young people are staying together without a formal wedding in church or in the community. Others do not want to pay dowry. Young couples are living together in what is called come we stay arrangements. 4. Health Medicine In traditional society, Illness was caused by witchcraft, sorcery, bad omen, or curses. Diviners, herbalists, and healers treated the sick people. Today bacterial, viruses, or environmental factors, cause illnesses. These are treated by nurses, and doctors; in hospitals and health centres. There is however a craze for herbalists. The communities are consulting herbalists and are taking herbal tea, and medicine 5. Dress Mode of dressing varied between countries. It was dependent on the type of climate. African communities were clothes made from skins or hides, leaves of bananas and trees. Women wore beads, and necklaces for decoration. Modern mode of dressing is a mixture of African, Asian and European wear. There are clothes for men, women, and unisex. African and western ornaments are worn for beauty and style. 6. Worship. Worship is an important activity in African communities. There are different forms of worship, which are done in various places. Those who were converted to Islam worship in Mosques. Those converted to Hinduism worship in temples. Christians worship in churches. The few traditional African communities continue to worship their ancestors in shrines. These are very few. But a few groups are turning back to traditional worship and reviving worship of ancestors and spirits, and their traditional God. For example Mungiki a cult in Kenya, made up of young people, worship the traditional Ngai and practice traditional culture. Traditional religions have many offerings such as foodstuffs and sacrifices such as goats, cows, sheep and chicken. Human sacrifice has been discarded. It is illegal, and it is murder. In the news, we have heard of cases of body parts being stolen from a dead body in mortuary probably for religious rituals. This is illegal and a criminal offence. Modern offerings in most religious institutions consist of money. 7. Death changes immediately the status of families. Mothers and fathers become widows and widowers. Children become orphans. Many parents, wives and husbands have died because of HIV / AIDS, road accidents, diseases and other modern calamities. They have left orphans, widows and widowers. Orphans used to be looked after by grandmothers, brothers and uncles. Today government, churches, charities, NGOs, well-wishers, and guardians, the elder sibling looks after orphans. Some orphan sisters and brothers drop out of school to look after the rest. Some orphans have ended up in the streets because there is no one to look after them Widows. Traditionally brothers inherited widows. However, widow inheritance is being discouraged to prevent HIV / AIDS. But on the other hand, widows are encouraged to remarry as society has become individualistic and no longer assists community members as an obligation. Widowers are not inherited and many of them remarry soon after the death of their wives. 8. Old age. In traditional African communities, old people were respected. But now old age is not respected. The aged are seen as a burden to their children. This is because the need medical care, food, and other forms of care to meet their needs. Most of them are neglected and mistreated. In traditional communities, children took care of their aged parents. Today some children care for their parents. Fortunately, churches have set up homes for the aged. An example is Nyumba za wazee. A few old people can look after themselves since they have pension schemes, life insurance policies, income generating projects, investments and bank deposits. They can care for themselves. Revision questions a) What is the significance of the kingship system b) Outline and explain factors contributing to harmony and mutual responsibility in the traditional African society c) What was the purpose of the bride wealth in the traditional African society? d) Explain the role of medicine men in the African communities and their relevance today. STUDY ACTIVITIES Read the Bible quotations given Carry out role-plays e.g. the sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham Consult the aged to assist in the understanding of African traditional practices Form one answers Topic: one 1.What is the importance of reading the Bible?
Strengthens peoples faith. Helps in spreading the gospel. Helps in composition of songs and hymns. Acts as a reference when we write its translations and other books. Promotes good relationship between God and man. 2. In society, people in schools, crusades, churches, lodgings, homes, and hospitals read the Bible. 3.In the government, the Bible is used for swearing in the Courts, Parliament and Cabinet when members of parliament are nominated to become ministers of the government. 4.The major divisions of the Bible are the old and the new testaments. Read 1.3.4. Above for more information 2. What are the effects of Bible translation on African languages? The Effects of Bible translation into African languages The translations increased and deepened peoples faith in God. They also led to the establishment of schools. The Gospel spread to local communities and many of them became Christians. The missionaries and colonialists learnt African Languages. This led to the promotion of African languages. This helped the African converts to judge when the missionaries were unfair or when they practiced inequality of races. 8. Why is the Bible referred to as (a) a Library and (b) the Word of God (a) The Bible is referred to as a Library because its: 1. Books are arranged in a series and in order. 2. A reference book
3. Is a book of literary works 4. Books were written under different situations and circumstances 5. Books are many 1. Inspiration is a process through which God took the initiative to prompt and enlighten the writers of the Bible its Godly influence. TOPIC TWO: CREATION AND THE FALL OF MAN 1. Find answers on the differences between the two creation stories in lesson four 2. Traditional African view of creation is in lesson four. Africans view was that:
God is the architect of the world God existed from the very beginning of time God created everything from nothing God provides for the needs of human beings, animals, and all creation God continues to create through human beings
3. Human beings continue with the work of creation in lesson four 4. The origin of sin and evil read again lesson five 5. Consequences of sin in lesson five When Adam and Eve sinned
Mans friendship with God changed to fear of GOD What had been innocent and good became shameful Relationship between GOD and man was damaged and became spoilt Man began to toil for food, safety and other basic needs Pain became part of human experience Death sentence was passed
6. Consequences of evil are in lesson six Africans understand evil as barrenness, war, drought, epidemics, madness, sickness, death, burning in a house and others
7. Gods plan of salvation is lesson seven. The lesson tells us that GOD saved human kind by providing: Clothing for Adam and Eve Means to find food A decree to defeat serpent through the seed of the woman A solution in which he choose Abraham and separated him from others A delivery of Israelites from Egypt Prophets with messages for Israelites The Messiah to die on the Cross to save humankind
8. Compare the biblical concept of sin and the African concept of evil. Similarities:
Both agree that God is good and did not create evil. In both, sin is a result of disobedience, greed and selfishness of
humankind.
In both cases, sin leads to human suffering. Both hold the view that sin/evil befalls humankind in the form of a
curse.
Sin brings separation between God and man. In both, there is reconciliation and forgiveness between God and man.
Thus sin does not end a relationship. Differences
In the bible, the serpent is seen as the cause of sin whereas in many
Traditional African communities, the spirits of the dead causes evil.
In the bible, there is external punishment (hell) for sinners while the Traditional African Community, a child is born free of evil.
Biblically had taken the initiative to end sin but in Traditional African
Community, man does through sacrifice to the ancestral spirits. 9. Subdue the earth in genesis 1 verse 28 TOPIC THREE: FAITH AND GODS PROMISES TO ABRAHAM. Qn 1. Explain why Abraham is referred to as the Father of Faith Faith is complete trust in somebody or something. This is because he demonstrated faith in his lifes actions.
Accepting to move from his homeland to an unknown land. By accepting circumcision at an old age and change of name. Being ready to sacrifice his only son Isaac. He made altars for the worship of God at Bethel etc. He believed in a God he did not know/see. By accepting to enter into a covenant relationship with God where he
gave his best animals as a sacrifice. Qn 2. Give five (5) actions from the life of Abraham that shows his faith in God
Abraham obeyed Gods call and left his homeland Haran to go to an
unknown land. He believed in the promises God gave him. Build altars for the worship of God, one at Schecher and the other at
Bethel.
Covenant accepted to make a covenant with God where he sacrificed
the best of his animals.
Circumcision accepting the command to circumcise himself and all
male children in his household. Sacrifice of son willing to offer his only son Isaac as a burnt offering
to God. Qn 3. List some of the promises God gave to Abraham.
Abraham and his wife Sarah would have a son. Abraham would be famous. He would become the father of a great nation. God would curse those who cursed him and bless those who blessed
him.
God assured Abraham of a personal protection. Many descendants like stars on the sky. The descendants would be slaves in a foreign land but God would
deliver them.
He would live to a ripe old age and die in peace. God would establish an everlasting covenant with him and his
descendants.
Some of his descendants would be kings. God would give him and his descendants land.
Qn 4. Compare and contrast Jewish and Traditional African practice of circumcision A. Similarities
In both communities, circumcision is taken as a physical sign of
membership to the community.
It involves the cutting of the foreskin. Members who refuse to be circumcised are treated as outcasts in the
community.
The shedding of blood is symbolic as it binds the people with God and
ancestors. The occasions are accompanied by a ceremony which being kinsmen
together.
The rite is compulsory for males. The practice is handed down from one generation to the next. Names are given during the occasion. In both cases, it is done in special or religious places e.g. temple/under
mugumo tree/ shrine etc.
It is a command from God/ancestors.
Differences
For African, initiation leads to adult responsibilities such as marriage,
becoming a warrior, decision- making and property ownership. In Jewish community, the boys are too young to take up responsibility.
In the Jewish community, only males are circumcised while in the
Traditional African Community, both boys and girls are.
For Jews, one remains a child while in the Traditional African
Community, they move from childhood to adulthood.
Jewish community circumcise at the age of eight days while in the
Traditional African Community, it is at puberty.
Among the Jews, it is a sign that they have become Gods people, but in
Traditional African Community, one is bound to the ancestors.
The Jewish circumcision is a command from God as a sign of their The rite, taken place on the 8th day of both in Jewish community while
in the Traditional African Communities, it occurs after every four six years.
Done to individuals in Jewish community while it is done to a group of
age mates in the Traditional African Communities.
No seclusion period among Jews as is the case in most African
communities.
In African communities, the ceremony enables them to choose future
leaders, which is not the case with the Jews.
Helps one endure suffering (pain) in future in the African communities
unlike in the Jewish communities.
Only one form of initiation (cutting of foreskin) is done. Various forms
are practiced in the Traditional African communities. These include:
Cutting of foreskin Lib/ear piercing Removal of lower teeth Scarification (putting marks on face/body)
Qn 5. What is the importance of faith to Christians?
Faith is the foundation of Christian life today. It makes Christians part
of the great nation of God.
Through faith in Jesus, Christians became the chosen people of God. Faith enables Christians make correct choices in life e.g. When It gives them perseverance in prayer as they wait for Gods answer. It gives them the courage to commit their lives to God totally. It is through faith that Christians obey God. They are able to achieve impossible things through faith. They are able to believe what they have not seen through faith. They are able to serve the world, help the needy because of their faith in
Christ. Qn 6. State the elements of a covenant
Partners two or more partners are involved. A physical reminder a certificate/sign. Promises: given by both partners. Ceremony whose blood seals it or an oath taken. Witnesses must be present It requires faithfulness, obedience and loyalty to the regulations It spells out serious consequences for those who break it.
Qn 7. Give examples of covenant in the bible and the modern society The Bible
Gods covenant with Noah: where he promised never to destroy the
earth with flood rainbow is the sign of the covenant (Gen 9).
Gods covenant with Abraham: God promised to fulfil the promises he
made to Abraham. The sign was circumcision (Gen 15 & 17).
The covenant between God and the Israelites on Mt Sinai sign was the Jeremiahs covenant: The new covenant with Gods people (Jr 31: 31
34). Modern Society Baptism Marriage Oath of allegiance/loyalty Ordination The National Anthem binds all The loyalty pledge Employment contract Qn 9. Discuss the circumstances that led God to enter into a covenant relationship with Abraham
To seal the promises given unto Abraham e.g. a great nation, son, many
descendants.
It was an assurance of the fulfillment of Gods promises to Abraham. It was to unite God and the Israelites. It was to be a source of blessings to all. A starting point for the salvation of mankind, whereby he would renew
the relationship between himself and man after the separation by the 1st parents. TOPIC FOUR: SINAI COVENANT. Qn a. What are the qualities of Moses as a leader?
Education: he received education while in the pharaohs palace where
he grew up.
Jewish religion knowledge: his own mother who was his maid taught
him the history of Israel.
He learned leadership skills from the King as he grew up. Shepherd: herding the father-in-laws herds made him gain experience Life in the wilderness where he lived after killing an Egyptian gave him
experience in desert life through where he would lead the Israelites.
Father/parent: his marriage to Zipporah helped him learn family
leadership. Later he applied this to his work.
Prophet: Enabled him to foresee the future and inform the community. Miracle-maker: helped him solve problem facing his people in the
wilderness e.g. lack of food, water.
Lawgiver: gave laws that were used to govern the community of Israel

water. Later he was able to serve the Jews. Qn b (i) Describe the call of Moses: Exodus 3: 1 22
God called Moses as he herded his father-in-laws flock at Mt Sinai. Moses saw a burning bush, which was not consumed. He drew nearer to
get a better look.
God called Moses by name from the middle of the burning bush and
told him to remove his shoes because he was standing on holy ground.
God told Moses that he had seen the suffering of his people in Egypt and heard their cry.
He told Moses that he had chosen him to go to Pharaoh and release
them from bondage.
Moses objected to the task because he felt inadequate. God promised to be with Moses and to protect him. Moses asked for the name of God so that he would have a point of
reference when asked who sent him. God revealed himself to Moses saying, IAM WHO I AM God gave Moses power to perform miracles that he would use as proof
of his work.
Moses protested further saying he was a stammerer. God commissioned Aaron, Moses brother as his spokesman. Moses then told God he was afraid to go to Egypt. God assured him that the man he was afraid of was already dead.
Qn b (ii) Why was Moses hesitant to Gods call?
It is because he was already a criminal and wanted in Egypt after having
killed and Egyptian and ran away.
He was not a good speaker (stammerer). He did not know the name of God who was sending him.
Qn c (i) what is the significance of the items used for the Passover feast (similar to what is the meaning of the Passover meal)?
The Lamb: reminded the Israelite of the sacrificial lamb whose blood
saved their 1st born from the angel of death.
The unleavened bread signified purity. It too signified the hurry they had to leave Egypt, as unleavened bread is
easy to bake.
Roasting the meat was the easiest method of cooking. Not breaking bones and spilt blood signified forgiveness. Bitter herbs symbolized the bitterness of slavery in Egypt. way of disposal & sacred. Qn c (ii) Compare the Lords Supper to the Passover feast Similarities:
Both are acts of salvation from suffering. Passover saved Israelites from
slavery while the Lords Supper saved people from bondage of sin.
Both are celebrated in memory of a past event suffering. Lambs offered in both Hebrews the Passover lamb in the Lords
Supper Jesus is the paschal lamb.
In both a symbolic meal was taken. In both cases each group is saved through a mediator Moses and Jesus
respectfully.
Gods covenant is remembered in both cases i.e. Old testament and new
covenant respectfully.
In both the religious significance of the feasts is taught and emphasized.
Differences:
In the Passover feast, animal sacrifice is offered while in the Lords
Supper, Jesus was the last sacrifice and instead bread and wine are offered to represent his blood and body.
Whereas the Jewish Passover was compulsory for every few, the Lords
Supper is not compulsory in all Christian churches.
The blood shed in the Jewish Passover is for the salvation of the Jews
only while the blood of Jesus shed on the cross is for the salvation of the whole human race. Moses was instructed by God to tell the elders to do the following in
preparation for the making of the covenant.
All Israelites were to cleanse themselves and wash their garments. Mark the boundaries of the mountain and avoid going near or crossing
the border.
Avoid sexual relations between married couple.
Note: All these happened after Moses had gone up the mountain and God had promised to make the Israelites the following if they obeyed him. i. His people ii. A kingdom of priests iii. A holy nation
On the third day after cleansing, Moses took the Israelites to meet their
God. God manifested himself in the following forms: thunder, lightening, earthquake and a thick cloud that filled the mountain and a loud trumpet blast.
Moses came down and told people about the laws which was to guide
them as a covenant people.
The people agreed to obey all the words the Lord had spoken (Ex 24: 3
4)
Thus the covenant was made.
Qn e. Describe the circumstances that led to the breaking of the Sinai covenant
Moses went up the mountain to receive the stone tablets on which the
Ten Commandments where written. He delayed (40 days) thus forgetting God. Egypt.
Aaron was a weak leader who failed to lead the people to uphold the
covenant. He yielded to their demands to make and worship idols.
Availability of gold jewellery: used to make the calf image. Idolatry was a practice done while in Egypt so they copied/continued
with it.
They were used to Gods (idols). They could see while in Egypt unlike
the Yahweh who was invisible. Qn f. How was the broken covenant renewed?
Moses pleaded to God not to destroy the Israelites. God spared them. God commanded the Israelites to cut two stone tablets where he would
rewrite the commandments.
God gave conditions to be fulfilled by the Israelites in the renewal of the
covenant. These were: a) To obey Gods command. b) Not to make treaties with other nations. c) To tear down the altars of the gods of other nations and temples. d) Not to worship idols. e) Not to make images to represent God. f) Not to marry foreign wives. g) To keep and celebrate the three festivals namely, Passover, feast of weeks and the feast of in gathering. h) To keep the Sabbath day holy. i) Dedicate to God 1st born male children and animals.

After this Moses was ordered by God to write a new set of Laws on the
stone tablets.
Thus the covenant was renewed.
Qn g. Describe how the Israelites worshipped God in the wilderness
Worship is the practice of showing respect and love for God. The Israelites showed their respect and love for God in the wilderness in
the following ways: - 1) The Ark and the Tabernacle: The Ark was a wooden box where the Ten Commandments were kept. They signified the presence of God. The tabernacle was a portable tent for meeting between God and the Israelites. 2) The Sabbath: They observed the Sabbath as a sacred day for resting and worshipping God. 3) Festivals: Celebrated many festivals as one way of worshipping God. E.g. Passover. 4) Altars built them when there was need to worship God meeting place between God and the people and sacrifice to God. 5) Observance of the Ten Commandments. These guided them on how to live with God and man. 6) Religious leaders: God chose priest from the tribe of Levi to organize worship. Qn h. What is the relevance of the Ten Commandments to Christian today? Christians learn that God is unique and cannot be represented by visible
man-made objects or described in human terms.
They are reminded to observe the Sabbath by worshipping God. They strive to have a good relationship with God. They are taught to respect other people and their property. They learn that long life is a result of honoring and respecting their
parents.
They strive to live upright and moral lives. They learn that lust for money and other property is sinful. Qn i. What did the Israelites learn about God in the wilderness?
They learned that God is faithful. He keeps promises. A provider provided manna, water etc. God is the controller of natural forces e.g. Red sea, a pillar of cloud &
fire, earthquakes etc.
A jealous God no worship of other gods. Just forgave those who broke the covenant and punished those who
refused to repent.
Merciful and compassionate. Give them a 2nd chance after breaking the
covenant.
A God of victory helped them defeat Amalekites.
God valued a personal relationship commandments given. TOPIC FIVE: LEADERSHIP IN ISRAEL Qn a. Explain the reasons against Kingship in Israel (1 Sam 8:10 20) The King would force the sons of the Israelites to serve him as soldiers
in the army.
The King would create forced labour and enslavement by making the
young men work in his farms and in making weapons. Daughters would work in his house.
He would also grab their land and give it to his loyal servants. He would overtax them in order to maintain his administration. It would be seen as a rejection of Yahweh as their King. Israel would be like other nations who did not know Yahweh. Yahweh would reject them when they cried to him. Qn b. Explain the importance of David as King of Israel
David was important because he was chosen by God and publicly
anointed by elders in a religion ceremony. He too became ancestor of many communities.
David was a great musician and wrote many songs for promising God. He killed Goliath the philistine soldier. He conquered the enemies of Israel such as Amalekites, Ammonites etc. He expanded Israel through his military conquests and marked the
boundaries of the nation.
He captured Jerusalem from the Jebusites and made it a capital city. He too made it a religious centre by placing the Ark of the Covenant
there, which had been housed Abidjabs.
He had good diplomatic relationship with other nations. He encouraged trade with other nations thus making Israel prosperous. He was a shrewd administrator who chose wise elders to advise him. He was filled with the Holy Spirit. He established the largest and most enduring dynasty that lasted 400 years.
He composed the books of Psalms used to praise God. Whenever he wronged God, he genuinely repented and humbled
himself before God. He was a just ruler. He respected the prophets of God and consulted them before making
decisions.
He was prayerful and consulted God in his undertakings. He united the twelve (12) tribes of Israel. He set a good example of faithfulness to Yahweh that he wanted all the
Israelites to emulate. Qn c. How did Jesus fulfil the prophecies of prophet Nathan as a descendant of David? (i.e. Areas where Jesus is mentioned as coming from David)
Angel Gabriel announced the birth of Jesus to Mary who was engaged
to Joseph, a descendant of David. The Angel referred to Jesus as the King whose wisdom would last forever (Lk 1:26-33).
Jesus was born in Bethlehem the birth place of David (Lk 2: 4 5) Abraham and David are mentioned as the ancestors of Jesus. During the triumphant entry into Jerusalem, the crowds who met him
sang with joy and shouted Hosanna to the son of David.
On the days of Pentecost when Peter addressed the crowd, he referred to
Jesus as a descendant of David (Acts:2 29-35).
Zechariah in his Benedictus, says that God has promised a savior
descended from the house of David (Lk 1:69) The blind man at Jericho referred to Jesus as the son of David (Lk
18:38). Qn d. What was the failure of King Solomon?
Solomon was the 2nd King of Israel, succeeding his father King David.
He failed to live according to the covenant way of life in the following ways.
He married foreign wives thus breaking the Toral that clearly stated that
the Israelites should not marry foreigners because they can come with their gods idols. He allowed the wives to worship their gods (idols) thus leading to
spread of idolatry in Israel.
He not only worshipped the gods of his wives but also built temple for
their worship.
He, by worshipping the gods became a bad example to Israel, as King.
They copied him.
Although he built Gods temple, he erred in many ways:
i. He built his palace for 13 years but took only 7 years to build Gods temple. Shows he loved himself more the God. ii. He used foreign designs and materials in the construction of the temple, ignoring Gods specifications on how to build it. iii. He liaised pagan craftsmen from Tyre to design, decorate and furnish the temple.
He broke the sixth commandment by killing his half brother, Adonijah.
He suspected that Adonijah would become his rival to the throne.
He spent a lot of Israels money on his lavish lifestyle. He had a large
army and servants.
He overtaxed the people to meet the amount. He used forced labour in his development projects. He enslaved young men and women who went to work in the palace as servants for the wives.
He practiced nepotism. He exempted them from forced labour. He sold part of Israel sold 20 towns of Galilee to King of Tyre as
payment of a debt he could not pay contrary to Gods command.
He made treaties with other nations that were against the condition set
during the renewal of the Sinai covenant.
In the above ways, he oppressed the people of God.
Qn e. Which leadership qualities can modern leaders learn from David? Justice: A good leader is one who does not favour some people like
David (I Sam 24: 1 12).
Courage: David showed this while fighting Goliath. Leaders need to be
brave and courageous in their work (I Sam 17:41 54).
Fear of God and Faith: David consulted God before any undertaking.
Leaders should do the same.
Gratitude: David was thankful to blessings he received. Leaders should
be happy and grateful to God.
Loyalty: Modern leaders should remain loyal to their office. David was
loyal to God and his people (2 Sam 2:7)
Kindness: Good leaders should show mercy to their people like David
did e.g. he forgave Saul twice (2 Sam 19: 9 39).
Humility: Leaders should not hesitate to ask for forgiveness from God
and people. David was humble and asked for forgiveness any time he went wrong.
Willingness to delegate: Learn to delegate future as David did (2 Sam 20: 23 26)
Wisdom: Be wise in choosing legal advisers as David did. Respect: Leaders should show respect to God and preaches those they
serve as David did to the prophets and his people. TOPIC SIX: LOYALTY TO GOD- ELIJAH. Qn a. Qualities of Elijah that led to his achievements Elijah was fearless and courageous. His courage helped him to face king Ahab and queen Jezebel and condemn them for their wickedness such as corruption and idolatry He was faithful to God. Yahweh guided him in his dealings with Baal prophets and king Ahab. He lived a simple life. For example, he wore simple clothing made of carmels skin. He stood for the covenant at a time when the religion of Yahweh was in danger He had the power of God in him and was able to control rain. He confirmed that Yahweh had authority over land and over the people. b) Schism is sharp religious, social, political differences within a group or organization Syncretism is the process of mixing religious beliefs and practices c) Some characteristics of Elijah that a modern Christian should strive to emulate 1) Courage 2) Faithfulness 3) Zealousness for God 4) Concern for the needy / poor 5) Provision of social justice 6) Patience Qn d. What were the effects of idolatry in Israel?
Syncretism developed where the Israelites worshipped Yahweh alongside the gods of Canaan.
The Israelites started calling Yahweh by the names used for Canaanites
gods e.g. El.
The Israelites started naming their children after Canaanite gods like
Baal. They changed their religion calendar and celebration to correspond with
their Canaanite celebrations and feasts.
They converted the high places used for worshipping Baal to Yahwehs
shrines without removing the graven images of idols.
The unity that existed between the two tribes of Israel was destroyed.
They no longer treated one another as brothers.
The Kings of Israel behaved like the Canaanites leaders by oppressing
the weak and grabbing other peoples property.
The people neglected Yahwehs holy places. Gods prophets were mistreated, persecuted and even killed. God withdrew his blessings from the Israelites because they angered
Him by worshipping other gods.
They broke Gods commandments, which forbade worship of other god
a part from Yahweh.
The Israelites practiced temple prostitution and other Canaanites rituals
and sacrifices. Qn e. Describe Elijahs fight against false religion in Israel
Elijah rose to challenge false religion at a time when Baalism had
become the official religion.
He prophesied a three and a half years drought because the people had
turned away from Yahweh.
After the drought God appeared to Elijah and told him to go to King Elijah asked the King to invite the 400 prophets of Asherah and Baals
450, saw that they could prove who the true God is.
Elijah would sacrifice a bull and the false prophets would too sacrifice
their own to call on their Gods to send fire. The one who could send is the true God.
The prophets of Baal were the 1st to pray to their god but he never sent
fire.
The prophets cut themselves with knives to please their god but he
never sent it.
Elijah then prepared the altar with 12 pillars representing the 12 tribes
of Israel.
He dug a trench around the altar, placed wood and put the cut bull on
top of the wood.
He ordered for water to be poured around the trenches until it flooded. Then in the evening Elijah prayed and called upon the God of Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob to send fire.
Fire came and consumed the whole sacrifice, including the water in the
trenches.
As a result, the Israelites bowed down and declared that Yahweh was
the true God.
Then Elijah ordered the killing of all the prophets of Baal and the
prophetesses of Asherah. Elijah went to the top of the Mt Carmel and prayed for rain. Yahweh
sent His servant to watch for the sign of rain from the sea.
The servant looked towards the sea seven times after, which he saw a
small cloud forming.
Then heavy rain fell, signaling end of drought.
Qn f. Describe Elijahs fight against corruption 1 Kings 21 Corruption: Can be defined as dishonesty or misuse of power for
personal gain.
In a corrupt society, the rich and powerful people tend to take advantage
of the weak/poor by exploiting them and denying them their rights.
King Ahab of Israel desired a fruitful vineyard owned by a man named
Naboth.
King Ahab approached Naboth to sell him the vineyard or exchange
with another one.
Naboth declined the offer because in Israel, selling ancestral land was
against the covenant law. The land belonged to God.
Jezebel, Ahabs wife, soon learned, Naboths refusal and she arranged
Naboths murder through false accusations.
After Naboth was killed, Ahab possessed the vineyard. God commanded Elijah to go and declare His judgement on Ahab for
committing such an evil act in Israel.
Elijah declared the following judgement on Ahab:
i. Dogs would lick Ahabs blood at the same place where they had licked Naboths. ii. Ahabs dynasty would fall kike those of the Kings before him who had disobeyed God. iii. All family members of Ahab would face violent deaths. From the Mt Carmel incident, they learn that Yahweh controls the
forces of nature can bring rain or stop it.
Yahweh is the only true and living God Mt Carmel. Yahweh is forgiving pardoned those who repented on Mt Carmel. Yahweh is a jealous God. He will not share honor with any God killed
the 450 prophets worshipping Baal.
A prosecutor protected Elijah. A provider provided Elijah with food. Yahweh answers prayers. He is faithful. They also learn that church leaders should condemn evil like Elijah did
in the case of Ahab and Naboth.
Christians should work to protect the poor from exploitation. They should be prayerful so that God can help them overcome
difficulties like Elijah.
They should strive to lead lives free from corruption. They should remain faithful even if it means costing their lives to
Naboth.
Leaders should realize authority comes from God and are accountable
to Him.
They should avoid idolatry, which Elijah condemned. Perform tasks given by God however had they may be as Elijah did
facing Ahab, killing the 450 false prophets etc. Finally, they should invite sinners to repeat and bring them back to God.

LUKES GOSPEL INTRODUCTION Matthew, Mark, Luke and John record the life of Jesus Christ and his ministry in the four Gospel books. We shall trace the life, and ministry of Jesus Christ as written by St Luke to Theophilus. St Luke was a medical doctor. TOPIC ONE: OLD TESTAMENT PROPHESIES ABOUT THE MESSIAH Introduction: Read 2 Samuel 7:13, Isaiah 7:10-16 Messiah Meaning: The word Messiah is from a Hebrew word meshiach, which means the anointed: thus a Messiah is one called, anointed and appointed by God to serve Him. Prophecy: A prophecy refers to a prediction of what will happen in future. Messianic Prophecies: These are those predictions that were made by the prophets to describe the coming of a righteous King who will rule Israel according to Gods will. The origin of the Messianic prophecies in the Bible starts with prophet Nathans prophecy to King David. NOTE: The Roman ruled the Israelites before the birth of Jesus. They hated the Roman leadership and longed for somebody of their own to lead them into victory over the Roman rule. The prophet of Israel (the Old Testament) communicated a message that God would send a messiah to bring all people into a lasting relationship with Him. The prophets who were sent had different ideas about the Messiah. Their ideas about the Messiah were different from the Jewish expectations whereby they hoped for political King to lead them into victory over the Roman rule. But the prophets were talking about a religious one to free them from sin. Topic Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: a) Explain the Old Testament prophecies about the coming of the Messiah. b) Relate the concept of the Messiah in the Old and New testaments. c) Explain the link between the Old and the New Testament d) Discuss the role of John the Baptist. LESSON ONE. OLD TESTAMENT PROPHESIES ABOUT THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH. Learning Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should be able to describe prophesies of Nathan, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Psalmist prophecy (David) and Micah concerning the Messiah (i) NATHANS PROPHECY (2 Samuel 7:3 17) and (Psalms 89: 20 38). David proposed to build God a house. Nathan, the prophet was given a message (an oracle) for David. In this prophecy, God told Nathan to tell King David that:
God would ensure that the Kingdom of David would last forever. An heir from Davids lineage would rule Davids heir shall build a house for Gods name. God would establish
the throne of his Kingdom forever.
David heir shall be Gods son and God shall be his father. David house and Kingdom shall be established forever.
David died. But Gods mercy shall not depart from the heir of David. Hence the promise that the Kingdom of David, shall last forever referred to the messiah who was to come. David is an ancestor of Christ. (ii) ISAIAHS PROPHECY Isaiah 7: 10 16; 9: 1- 7; 61:1 2; and 63. In these readings, Isaiah prophesied that the Messiah would be: Born of a virgin A boy, born of a virgin and called Emmanuel that is God with us A Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, The everlasting Father, and the
Prince of Peace.
The Spirit of God inside him Anointed of God Sent to preach the good news to the poor, to bring liberty to the
captives, proclaim the year of favour from God. Isaiah also prophesied that the Messiah would be the suffering servant
(Isaiah 53) CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SUFFERING SERVANT ISAIAH 53
He would bear the sins of human kind He was oppressed, afflicted, despised, rejected of men He bore suffering and disgrace submissively He was mocked and spat on and wounded He was innocent of sin and yet treated as a criminal. He was pierced and wounded in the sides He was crucified with thieves and made intercession for the sinners He was buried in a rich mans tomb.
iii. JEREMIAHS PROPHECY- JEREMIAH 23: 5 6. God promised to rise up a (branch) who shall:
Choose as King, a righteous descendant of David Prosper Rule wisely, do what is right, and just in the world Execute justice on the earth Ensure that Judah and Israel are safe and live in peace. Be called the God our righteousness The Lord our salvation
What does the term a righteous branch means? iv. MICAHS PROPHESY, (MICAH 5: 1 5). Micah prophesied that: The Messianic King shall come from Bethlehem He shall lead with authority He will bring peace
v. THE PSALMIST PROPHECY (Psalm 41:9 and 110:1 2). David spoke of
Betrayal by a close friend Messiah is referred to as the Lord The messiah shall rule/reign in the midst of enemies. Summary Nathan, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Psalmist prophecy (David) and Micah prophesied of a Messiah to come. The Jews expected a Messiah who would be a political leader, a victorious ruler and a King. They expected a Messiah:
Who would lead his people into a time of great national power and
prosperity;
In whose reign, there shall be no illness, no sorrow, no injustice, In whose reign, there shall be no fear In whose reign, land shall be filled with joy and peace Who shall rule forever.
Revision questions 1) Describe the prophecy of Jeremiah concerning the Messiah 2) What does the term Messiah mean? 3) Highlight the Jewish expectations of the Messiah in the Old Testament? 4) Did Jesus Christ fulfill the O.T. prophecies concerning the Messiah? How? 5) Which prophets in the Old Testament prophesied about the expected Messiah? LESSON TWO. THE CONCEPT OF THE MESSIAH IN THE NEW TESTAMENT Learning Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should be able to explain the concept of the Messiah in the New Testament The concept of messiah is found in Luke 1:26 38; 2:1-23; 23:1 35; 24:50 51. The writer of Lukes Gospel makes it clear that Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies concerning the coming of the Messiah. How did He do this? Well Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies because;
Jesus was born from the lineage of David (Mathew 1) Angle Gabriel said the child to be born shall rule forever (Luke 1:32)
Nathans prophecy
Jesus was born of Mary a Virgin, as pre told by Isaiah 7:14 Messiah is called Emmanuel, Isaiahs prophecy. Mathew 1:18 25 Jesus was born in Bethlehem Micahs prophecy The Messiah would be a Son of David Nathan, and Jeremiah
prophesies. Jesus was referred to as a Son of David (Luke 18:38)
Jesus would bring salvation said by Simeon during dedication of Jesus.
Luke 2:29 32. This was a fulfillment of Isaiahs prophecy.
Jesus referred to himself as the Messiah by reading the scroll. Isaiah
61:1 2. and Luke 4: 18 19
Isaiah prophesied that the Messiah would perform miracles. Jesus
performed many miracles.
The prophecy of the suffering servant (Isaiah 53) was fulfilled through the passion, death and crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
We see Jesus betrayed by one of his disciples friend, fulfilling the
Psalmist prophecy. Note that the Jews in the New Testament expected a messiah who would deliver them from the rule of the Romans. Jews expected Jesus to be a political leader or king. However, Peter called him the Christ of God (Luke 9:20). Matthew called him King of the Jews in chapter (2 verse 2). Hence, Jesus came as a Spiritual Leader and King, and not as a political Leader / King. Self-Assessment Questions 1. What does the name Emmanuel mean? 2. Explain the concept of the Messiah in the New Testament? LESSON THREE. ANNUNCIATION OF THE BIRTH OF JOHN THE BAPTIST Introduction The parents of John the Baptist were Zechariah and his wife Elizabeth. Zechariahs name meant God has remembered. Elizabeths name meant God has sworn. Learning outcome. By the end of this lesson, you should be able to describe the annunciation of the birth of John the Baptist and Jesus. John the Baptist 1. The Annunciation Read Luke 1:5 25. Zechariah was a priest. He and his wife Elizabeth were old, good and righteous people of God. But they did not have a child. They were barren. But God gave them a child, John the Baptist. His birth was announced to his father, Zechariah, when he was in the temple offering incense. An Angel appeared to Zechariah and told him that his prayers had been heard. His wife Elizabeth will bear a son. The angel said the child would be called John, which means that God is gracious. The child Will be set aside to serve God. Will be filled with the Holy Spirit
As an adult, John
Will be a Nazarite. He should neither cut his hair nor drink wine. Shall turn many hearts of people to the Lord their God. Shall also turn the hearts of the fathers to their children Zachariah expressed unbelief to these words. Angel Gabriel told him that he shall be dumb until the fulfillment of the Gods words. The Birth, Circumcision and Naming Of John the Baptist Elizabeth brought forth a son. This brought great joy to her and Zachariah. The cousins, and neighbours of Elizabeth wanted the Child to be named Zechariah after the father. But Elizabeth insisted on the name John. When Zechariah was asked to name the child, he wrote down the name John. On the 8th day, the child was named John as the angel had said. John was circumcised on the 8th day according to the Jewish traditions. After naming his Child John, the mouth of Zechariah opened immediately and he started to speak.

Narrate temptations of Jesus b. State relevance of the temptations of Jesus to modern Christians
c. State lessons that Christians can learn from temptations of Jesus a. The temptations of Jesus (Luke 4:1 13). Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit returned from Jordan into the desert. Like Elijah, Moses, He ate and drunk nothing for 40 days and nights. He was hungry after 40 days. It is at this time of weakness when the devil tempted Him. First temptation. The devil told Jesus to proof that He was the Son of God by turning the stones to become bread. Jesus however replied that it is written man does not live on bread alone to sustain him but on everything that the Lord says (Deut 8:3). Satan was telling Jesus to use his Messianic power and Spirit to obtain material security for himself and his followers for selfish, materialistic purposes. What can we learn from this temptation? Jesus was not seeking to establish a material paradise on earth. Second temptation. The devil led Jesus up to a high place (High Mountain) and showed Him in an instant all the Kingdoms of the world. He told Him that he would give Him all their authority and splendor, if He bows and worships Satan. Jesus replied it is written worship the Lord your God and serve him only. Do not worship other gods (Deut.6: 13-14). Satan wanted Jesus to use Godly power and influence. This was idolatry i.e. worshipping other gods. What can we learn from this temptation? Jesus did not come to seek a worldwide political military reign as many Jews expected Him to do. Third Temptation. The Devil led Jesus to Jerusalem and had Him stand on the highest point of the temple. He told Jesus to throw Himself down if He was the Son of God for it is written that the Lord will command angels to guard him (Psalm 91:11 12). Jesus replied and said it is written, do not put the Lord your God to the test. Satan wanted Jesus to presume on Gods good care by jumping from the roof of the temple. What can we learn from this temptation? Jesus will not force belief in His Messiah ship through a spectacular sign. Notice that the temptations came after Jesus Baptism, where he had solemnly accepted the opening of his public ministry and God confirmed it. Therefore the temptations were a testing of his loyalty to Gods chosen way of life. b. Relevance of Jesus temptations to Christians Jesus, though without sin was tempted. His followers must expect to be tested in their faith. Christians learn that it is not sinful to be tempted. Since Jesus was tempted, he understands Christians difficulties when they are tempted. Jesus is always ready to help Christians to cope with temptations. Why do you think Christians are tempted? Through temptations and trials, Christians faith in God is strengthened. Christians learn to refer to the Bible for guidance when tempted. Jesus said that it is written in reference to scripture. Christians should seek the Holy Spirit to give them strength to fight any form of trials and temptations. Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit went to the wilderness and was tempted by the devil In temptation, God does provide a way out. Thus followers of Jesus Christ (Christians) should not be seekers of spectacular signs. LESSON FOUR. REJECTION OF JESUS AT NAZARETH Learning Outcomes. By the end of the lesson, you should a. Describe rejection of Jesus at Nazareth b. Suggest possible reasons for rejection a. Rejection of Jesus at Nazareth (Luke 4:14 30). After the temptation, Jesus went to Galilee, His home district to begin his ministry. As a faithful Israelite, Jesus attended service in the synagogue every Sabbath day. During that time, it was customary for visiting Rabbis (Teachers of the law) to be given the honor of reading from the law or to address the congregation. When Jesus was given this opportunity, He opened the scroll and read from Isaiah 61: 1 3 The Sovereign Lord has filled me with his spirit. He has chosen me and sent me. Luke writes in 4 v 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has chosen me to bring good news to the poor. On completion of the reading, Jesus told them that today this scripture has been fulfilled in their hearing. From this reading Jesus referred to himself as the Messiah. The people of Nazareth in indignation wanted to kill Jesus by throwing him over a cliff. b. Possible Reasons for Rejection. Jews of Nazareth rejected Jesus because one, they knew him as the son of Mary and Joseph. They did not know Him as the Son of God. Two, Jesus did not fit into the idea of a political King that the Jews were expecting. They were waiting for a King with an army and horses. Three, Jesus preaching was seen as being against that of Pharisees, Scribes and Sadducees: the religious leaders at that time. Four, Jesus pointed out evils of religious leaders. Five, a leader is never accepted at home especially in a superior or senior position. Six, Jesus did not follow the general rules of the Mosaic Law. These were fasting, healing and working on the Sabbath day. Worse still Jesus associated Himself with Jewish outcasts such as sinners, and the sick. Discussion question 1.

Here he cast out demons (Luke 4: 40 41). He was teaching people. He performed many miracles of healing. For example: i. Healing a man possessed by an evil spirit. A man was possessed by an unclean demon/spirit. He was in the synagogue. When he saw Jesus, the evil spirit shouted, Ah! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy one of God (Luke 4:34). Jesus replied, Be silent and come out of him. The Demon threw the man down and came out without doing any harm. The man was made whole. ii. Jesus heals Simons mother in law. After Jesus left the synagogue, he went to the house of Simon Peters mother in law. She had a fever, Jesus commanded the fever to leave and she was made whole immediately. Which lessons do Christians learn from the healings at Capernaum There are many lessons. These are that 1) Jesus is the son of God 2) Jesus came to establish the Kingdom of God and destroy the kingdom of Satan. 3) Jesus has power over evil spirits / demons. 4) Jesus came to save human beings from the slavery of sin 5) God cares for his people. LESSON SIX. THE CALLING OF THE FIRST DISCIPLES Luke 5: 1 11 Introduction: A disciple is a learner, a student or a follower. Learners followed a master so as to learn about religious matters. Disciples were followers of Christ. Learning Outcomes. By the end of the lesson, you should be able to describe the call of the first disciples. Rabbis. These were teachers of law. They had special schools where they taught law. In these schools, learning was by memorization and repetition what students heard from the rabbis. The disciples of Jesus did not memorize. They learnt by observation. They were witnesses and they spoke what they heard and described or explained what they saw. Call of the first disciples Jesus entered into Simons ship and started to teach people who were there. Later, He told Simon to push off a little from the shore. Jesus sat in the boat and taught the crowd. After speaking, he told Simon, and his partners James and John; Push the boat out further to the deep waterand let down your nets for a catch of fish. Simon told Jesus that they had toiled all night, and caught nothing. But if you say so, I will let down the nets. Simon obeyed. They let down the nets and caught a multitude of fish. They called for assistance from other fishermen. When Simon Peter saw this, he told Jesus Go away from me, Lord! I am a sinful man! Jesus said to Simon Dont be afraid, from now on you will be catching people. On getting to the shore, Peter and his friends James and John sons of Zebedee forsook all and followed Jesus Thus the first disciples of Jesus were Simon Peter; James and John. Lessons from the call of the first disciples 1) God can choose anybody to serve him regardless of his or her social status. 2) God still calls people to serve him in various capacities as evangelists, pastors and others. 3) Those called should repent their sins as Peter did 4) Christians should trust in God Simon Peter trusted Jesus and cast his nets even though they had caught no fish from the same spot. 5) God can intervene in peoples lives through miracles (miraculous catch of fish) 6) Christians should work together as a team. Fishermen worked together. 7) There is hope for those who follow Jesus. He told them follow me and I will make you fishers of men God reveals himself to people in everyday activities as Jesus revealed himself to Simon Peter, and his friends James and John through fishing. 9) Christians vocation may require renunciation of family ties and occupations or a change of life. 10) Those called to serve God are expected to be humble LESSON SEVEN.

Explain why Jesus faced opposition from Pharisees, Sadducees, and Scribes Jesus ministry consisted of teaching, healing and doing many miracles. Because of this work, Jesus faced opposition from the Pharisees, Sadducees and Scribes. These were Jewish religious leaders. a. Opposition by Pharisees and Sadducees. Luke 5:12- 6:11 Why did Jewish religious leaders; the Pharisees? Scribes? Sadducees oppose Jesus? There were many reasons for Jewish opposition to Jesus. These were: 1) Jesus was becoming more famous than the religious leaders 2) His claim to forgive sins. This was reserved only for God. 3) His association with tax collectors / publicans and sinners. For example, Jesus ate with Levi. 4) His failure to observe the law of fasting. Jesus disciples did not fast like the disciples of the Pharisees and John the Baptist. 5) Doing what religious leaders regarded as unlawful things on the Sabbath day. For example, a. Eating on Sabbath with unwashed hands (disciples), b. Plucking corn on the Sabbath day c. Working. Jesus healed on the Sabbath day. This was considered as work, which was unlawful. Jesus healed a man with a paralyzed hand on the Sabbath day. d. Touching the unclean. Jesus reached out his hand and touched a leper and healed him.

At the time of Jesus, majority of the Scribes were associated with the Pharisees. A scribe was also a Rabbi teacher. Some scribes managed schools called Rabbinical Schools. In these schools, Jewish male youth learnt the Mosaic Law from the age of 13 years. Scribes were represented in the Jewish religious council called the Sanhedrin. Sanhedrin was the Jewish Court of Justice, which tried those who committed religious sins. Who were the Sadducees? Sadducees were the wealthy people. They were an influential group. These were the majority in the Sanhedrin, the Jewish Court of Justice. The poor hated them. They were also members of the Jerusalem priesthood. The chief priests were mainly drawn from the Sadducees.

THE SERMON ON THE PLAIN (Luke. 6:1216, 27 49) Review In the previous section, we learnt that Jesus chose His apostles. He came down the hill and stood on a level place. He gave a sermon to those present. This address is referred to as the sermon on the plain in Lukes Gospel. The people had come to hear Jesus word to receive healing and for Jesus to exercise unclean spirits from them. In the sermon, Jesus talked of the characteristics of the new community. All those who would listen to His word would be the New Israel. Learning Outcomes. By the end of the lesson, you should be able to (a) Name the12 disciples (b) Summarize the teachings of Jesus on true discipleship Analyse the teachings of Jesus on the plain (sermon on the plain) Selection of 12 disciples (Luke. 6:12 16) Jesus went into a mountain to pray. In the morning, he called his disciples. From them, he selected 12 disciples, whom he also called apostles. Apostle means one who is sent, a missionary. The 12 disciples were: (1) Simon Peter (2) Andrew (3) James (4) John (5) Phillip (6) Bartholomew (7) Mathew (Levi) (8) Thomas (9) James son of Alphaeus (10) Simon who was called the Patriot (11) Judas son of James and (12) Judas Iscariot who became the traitor (Luke vs. 14-16) Jesus teachings on true discipleship Jesus taught that a follower or disciple of Christ should: (a) Have unshakeable faith (b) Be obedient to Gods word (c) Be self-critical/analytical/self-searching (d) Be kind, loyal, objective, fair, and generous (e) Accept others without discrimination. (f) Be a disciple and show concern for others. The Sermon on the plain (Luke 6: 17 49) The Sermon on the plain is a lecture or lesson that Jesus gave to a large number of his disciples and a large crowd of people who had come from Judea, Jerusalem, tyre, and Sidon. They came to listen to the sermon of Jesus and to be healed of diseases, evil sprits. The purpose of the sermon was to teach the crowd the meaning of following Christ. Jesus covered 6 beatitudes or topics in his sermon. These are. 1) Blessings and woes beatitudes (2) Love for enemies (3) Judging others (4) Giving to the needy (5) A tree and its fruits (6) Wise and foolish builders hearing and doing the words of Jesus. We shall now discuss each of these beatitudes in detail. 1. Blessings and woes. Jesus taught that: (i) Blessed are the poor for theirs is the Kingdom of God. (ii) Blessed are the hungry for they shall be filled (iii) Blessed are those who weep now for they shall laugh (iv) Blessed are those who men shall hate, reject, reproach for the sake of Christs for their great reward is kept in heaven. (v) Woe to those who are rich, for they have already received their reward. (vi) Woe to those who are full for they shall go hungry (vii) Woe to those who laugh now for they shall mourn and weep (viii) Woe to those whom people speak well, for ancestors said the same about the false prophets. Those who accept to be followers of Christ are promised blessings while those who reject Christ are to suffer in future. 2. Love your enemies. Luke. 6: 27 36. Love is often defined as a warm feeling / affection towards somebody or something. Jesus taught his followers to love their enemies and do well to those who hate you. Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who mistreat you. Do unto men as you expect them to do unto you. Lend also to your enemies. Love your enemies and do good to them. Lend and expect nothing back. Be merciful. From these teachings: true discipleship of Jesus Christ: a) Entails unconditional love even for enemies b) Doing good without expecting any returns c) Praying for those who mistreat us d) Showing love to our enemies by exhibiting Gods love in us. e) Is love; because those who love are children of the most high who is kind and merciful to the sinners. (3) Judging others Luke. 6: 37 42 Jesus taught his followers not to judge others lest they are also judged. They should not condemn others lest they are also condemned. He asked disciples to forgive others and they shall also be forgiven. True discipleship requires acknowledging ones shortcomings and avoiding criticism of others. (4) Giving to the needy. A true disciple should share what they have with the needy. Those who share shall be rewarded. He also said that the blind couldnt lead the blind. There is a master and a follower. The disciple is not above his master. (5) A tree and its fruits. A healthy tree bears good fruits. A poor tree bears poor fruit. Neither does a corrupt tree bring forth good fruits. A tree is known by its fruits. Followers of Christ are evident to others by their actions. They are not hypocritical or fault finding. (6) Wise and foolish builders. A wise builder digs a deep foundation on a rock. When floods come, the house is able to stand. A foolish builder builds his house upon the sand. Without a foundation, when floods come, the house falls and is ruined. Wise builders are those who hear the word of God and do what is required. Those who do not adhere to the teachings are the unwise builders. True discipleship entails obedience to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Relevance of the lessons of the Sermon on the Plain to Christian Life Christians are urged to love even those that hate them. The challenges that followers of Christ encountered in the New Testament are not different from those that Christians experience today. Christians should forgive others, share with the needy, avoid judging others, and follow the teachings of Christ. Lesson Revision questions 1.

Jesus healed the servant of a Roman soldier and a Gentile. The Centurion showed love and concern for his servant. The centurion sent Jewish elders to Jesus with a request to heal his servant. The leaders said this man deserves to have you do this, because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue (Luke 7:5). Jesus agreed and went with the elders. But before Jesus reached the centurions house, the centurion sent his friends to stop him from coming to his house. He said that he was not worthy to have Jesus under his roof. He said that he was a man of authority. Hence Jesus could give an order and the servant would be healed. On hearing this, Jesus declared to the crowd I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel. When the men returned, they found the servant well. Lessons Christians can learn from the healing of the centurion servant. 1. Faith in God is important for healing to occur 2. We should confess our faith in Jesus.

Jesus has power to heal any form of sickness. ii) The raising of the widows son Luke 7:11 17. A widow is a woman whose husband is dead. The widow was of the city of Nain. When Jesus neared the gates of the city, he saw the funeral procession of the widows son, the only son of his mother. Jesus had compassion on the widow and told her weep not. Jesus then touched the casket and said young man I say unto you, arise. The dead sat up and began to speak. All the people were filled with fear and glorified God, saying God has visited his people. Lessons Christians learn from the raising of the widows son 1) Jesus has power over death 2) Jesus empathizes with the suffering 3) Acts of love should not be hindered by traditions Jesus touched the casket even though Jewish traditions forbid it. 4) The Widow of Nain was a gentile. This is a sign that salvation was universal. 5) The crowd acknowledged Jesus lordship; Christians should acknowledge the lordship of Jesus. What are the practices pertaining to the disposal of the dead in your culture? and community? iii) Assurance to John the Baptist (Luke 7:20 30). A question arose whether Jesus Christ was the Messiah. John the Baptist wanted to assure his disciples that Christ; was the expected messiah: and not him (John the Baptist). He sent his disciples to Jesus to ask if you are the one he said was going to come, or if we should expect someone else? (Vs. 20). Jesus told the disciples of John to go back and tell John of the miracles works they saw and heard. Jesus then gave a testimony of John the Baptist as a prophet, whose life and missions is beyond that of ordinary prophets. Jesus testified that John the Baptist; was the forerunner or messenger of Jesus Christ: as the prophets in the Old Testament had written. The Pharisees and the publicans (teaches of the law) however rejected the testimony about John the Baptist. They had refused to be baptized by John. Those baptized by John the Baptist, the tax collectors acknowledged the testimony of Jesus. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees and teachers of law for their hypocrisy. In what ways were the Pharisees and teaches of law hypocritical? iv) The forgiveness of the sinful woman (Luke 7: 36 50) Jesus was invited by one of the Pharisees called Simon to his house to dine with him. In that city, there was a sinful woman. She went to the house of Simon when she learnt that Jesus was in the Pharisees house. She brought with her an alabaster jar full of perfume. She stood behind Jesus. She was weeping and washing his feet with her fears. She then wiped the tears from the feet of Jesus with her hair, kissed his feet, and anointed them with oil (an alabaster box of ointment). When Simon, the host saw this he said within himself, if this man was a prophet, he would know who this woman is who is touching him a sinful woman. Jesus told Simon a parable of a man who forgave two people that owed him money one 500, the other 50. Jesus asked which of the two debtors would love him most. Simon said the one that was forgiven much, Jesus then told Simon that when he came to his house, Simon did not give him water for his feet; neither did he welcome Jesus with a kiss; nor provide him with olive oil. But the woman washed his feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair. She also kissed his feet. Jesus told the people that her sins, being many are forgiven for she loved much. Jesus turned to the woman and told her thy sins are forgiven. Thy faith has saved thee, go in peace. The people who were eating with Jesus murmured. Who was Jesus? He forgives sins. Lessons from the forgiveness of the sinful woman 1. The Jews believed that by associating with sinners, one becomes virtually defiled. Jesus however allowed the sinful woman to touch him. 2. By her actions, the woman acknowledged that she was a sinner, and repented. This was in contrast to the Pharisees who were self-righteous and therefore did not repent. 3. The Womans great love for Jesus led to her being forgiven of her sins. 4. Christians need to accept their sinful nature and seek forgiveness from God. 5. Faith in Jesus is necessary. Summary. Jesus is accepted women to be his followers unlike the Jewish customs which viewed women as lesser than men. Other women that played a key role in the ministry of Jesus include Mary Magdalene, Joann Joanna and Susanna among many others. Lesson Revision questions 1. What role do women play in the church ministry? 2. Narrate the story of the forgiveness of the sinful woman (Lk 7: 36, 8:3) 3. What lessons do you learn from the above story? 4. Describe the story of the raising of the widows son at Nain (Lk 7: 11- 17) Answers Women play many roles in the church ministry. Some of these are: (i) Carrying out duties of pastors, bishops, and deacons (ii) Management. Some are heads of the women groups (iii) Leading in church service (iv) Participating as church ushers, choir singers, and youth leaders (v) Attending church. Women are part of the congregations LESSON TEN. JESUS TEACHING IN PARABLES (LK. 8: 4- 21) Introduction Jesus used parables to teach. A parable is a Greek word. It means comparing or putting side by side in order to understand. A parable is defined as a short story or description, which teaches something or answers some questions. It is an allegory an earthly story with a hidden or heavenly meaning. a. Use of parables. Jesus used parables in his teachings in order to explain unfamiliar messages in a language that his hearers could understand. Other reasons were because Jesus wanted to: 1) Provoke critical thinking 2) Make the audience understand issues from a different point of view 3) Explain the nature of the kingdom of God by giving real life examples. 4) Explain the nature of God. The parables brought out the attributes of an invisible God. For example, the parable of the prodigal son who had been lost. 5) Attract the attention of his audiences so that they could listen and understand. 6) Make people understand how they should relate to one another. Read the parable of the good Samaritan 7) Teach Gods love to mankind. The parable of the lost sheep, lost coin. Separate / identify those who were sincere in seeking the kingdom of God from the onlookers. 9) Challenge the imagination of his hearers since entry to Gods kingdom was a personal decision. 10) Make an indirect attack on his opponents like the Pharisees, the scribes and the Sadducees. 11) Teach his disciples that they should be persistent and never be discouraged. 12) Make his teachings interesting and easy to understand. 1. The parable of the sower Lk 8:4 15 Jesus told this parable to the crowd that followed him. He said that a farmer went out to sow corn. He scattered seeds in the field. As he did so, some of them fell on the path, and they were trampled on and eaten by birds. Other seeds fell on the rock ground. When they germinated, they withered because they lacked moisture. Some seed fell among thorns bushes. They grew with bushes, which choked them as they grew. Some other seeds fell on fertile soil. They grew up in fertile soil and their yield was100 seed for each seed sown. Meaning or interpretation of the parable Jesus gave the meaning of the parable to his disciples. He said that the seed is the word of God. i. Seed that fell on the path represents people who hear the word of God, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts so that they do not believe. Such listeners are like the seeds that fell on the path. They hear the word but soon after the devil takes away the message to stop them from believing and being saved. ii. Seed that fell on the rocky ground are people who receive the word with joy but it does not stay with them. They believe for a while but when faced with trials and temptations they stop believing and fall away. iii. Seed that fell on the thorny bushes stands for people who receive the word. However, they fail to follow their beliefs because of interference by lifes worries, riches and pressures of the world. They fail to mature as believers. iv. Seed that fell on the good soil are those people with a noble and good heart. They hear the word, and retain it in their hearts. Such people persevere and produce good harvest. v. Interpretation. The different types of soil in this parable refer to different kinds of Hearts of people. The farmer is Jesus, God or Preacher. We learn that: One should not despair and Its important to receive the word of God, practice it and persevere so as
to bear fruits. 2. The parable of a lamp under a bowl (Lk.8: 16 18). Jesus taught that no one lights a lamp, then covers it with a bowl or hide it under a bed. When one lights a lamp, they put it on the lamp stand so as to illuminate a room and for people to see the light. For whatever is hidden or covered up shall be revealed. In this parable Jesus is the light. The disciples had a duty to pass on to others messages they had learnt from Jesus. They should not keep messages to themselves. Interpretation. From this parable of a lamp under a bowl, we learn that: i A Christian has a duty to share the knowledge of God with others ii One cannot be a Christian if this knowledge is hidden iii Those who do not share may loose their beliefs. 3. Jesus mother and brothers. Luke 8:19 21 The mother of Jesus and brothers came to see him. Someone told Jesus that they were there. He told the crowd. My mother and brothers are those who hear the word of God and obey . Accepters and believers are the members of the family of Jesus. Lesson Revision Questions 1. Give reasons why Jesus used parables 2. Identify various methods used by Christians in spreading the gospel today 3. Discuss the reasons why Jesus faced opposition fro the Jewish leaders. LESSON ELEVEN: MIGHTY WORKS OF JESUS Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson a. Organise in categories miracles performed by Jesus b. Narrate each miracle c. Discuss the significance of the miracle and lessons to learn Jesus continued to do miracles; and teach. His work is referred to as the mighty works of Jesus in various books. Miracles can be defined as acts of power whose purpose is to establish the kingdom of God. Miracles can also mean extraordinary events that go against the laws of nature. a. Categories / types of miracles Jesus performed four types of miracles. These were: 1) Nature miracles miracles that dealt with nature e.g. calming of the storm 2) Raising of the dead e.g. Jairus daughter 3) Healing miracles healing Simons mother in law of fever, healing of the woman with the flow of blood. 4) Exorcism miracles casting out of evil spirits e.g. the Gerasene demonic i) The calming of the storm One day, Jesus entered a boat with his disciples to go across Lake Galilee. As they sailed Jesus was asleep in the ship. Suddenly, there was a strong wind and the boat began to sink. The disciples woke him up saying, Master, we are about to die. Jesus woke up and gave an order to the winds and the raging waters. They obeyed and there was calm. He then said to his disciples where is your faith? Disciples were afraid and amazed and wondered, Who is this man? Winds and waves obey him. This miracle teaches Christians to have faith and to depend on Jesus when they face raging temptations and persecutions. Jesus has power over nature. ii) Jesus Heals a Man with demons (Lk8: 26 39) Jesus and his disciples sailed to Gerasa town across Lake Galilee. On arrival a man who had demons in him for a long time met Jesus. He lived naked in tombs, and wilderness. On seeing Jesus, he cried out, threw himself down at the feet of Jesus and shouted; Jesus son of the Most High God! What do you want with me? I beseech thee, torment me not. Jesus had ordered the demons to go out of him. Jesus asked him what is your name? He replied Legion or Mob. This was because the man had been possessed by many demons. The demons begged Jesus not to send them into the deep but to let them go into some pigs (swine) that were feeding by. Jesus allowed them and the devils went out of the man, into the pigs. The herd ran down the cliff into the lake and drowned. The herders run to the city and spread the news. The multitude found the man sitting at the feet of Jesus clothed, and in his right mind. The multitude asked Jesus to leave their country region. The healed man wanted to follow Jesus but Jesus declined and told him to go and tell others of the great things that God had done for him. The man went to town and told all what Jesus had done for him. This miracle teaches Christians that: 1. The mission of Jesus was universal. 2. Jesus mission is to teach all the people irrespective of their race, tribe or geographical location. The demon man was healed in a Gentile area. 3. Jesus has power over evil 4. Powers of evil (demons) are real 5. Human life is more valuable than mans material things 6. The demons evil spirits identified Jesus as the Son of the most High 7. Christians need to fight the power of evil SAQ. What were the causes of mental illness and spirit possession in traditional African society and in modern society? iii) Jairus daughter is raised. Lk.8: 40 42, 49 56 Jairus was an official in the local synagogue. He begged Jesus to come to his house and heal his only daughter who was 12 was dying. iv) Woman with the flow of blood is Healed (Lk. 8:43 48) When Jesus was on route to Jairus house, great crowds followed him and pressed him on either side. Amongst them was a woman who had suffered from severe bleeding for 12 years. She consulted doctors and spent all her savings on physicians. But she was not cured. The society considered the woman unclean. It blamed her for her illness. She herself was embarrassed by her condition. This woman walked behind Jesus and she touched the hem of the garment of Jesus. Her bleeding stopped at once. Jesus asked, who touched me? Everyone denied it. Peter replied the multitude was around Jesus and it was difficult to know who had touched him. Jesus persisted someone touched him. The woman who had touched Jesus the woman came forward, and fell at his feet and confessed to all her sickness and explained why she touched Jesus and how she was healed at once. Jesus said to her My daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. Jairus daughter is raised. Lk.8: 40 42, 49 56 As Jesus was talking to her, Jairus was told that his little girl was dead. Dont bother the teacher anymore. Jesus told Jairus not to fear but to believe and she will be well. When he got to the house he went into the room with Peter, John and James and the parents of the girl. People around were weeping and wailing. But Jesus told them not to weep. She is not dead but asleep. They scorned and laughed at him for saying that she is asleep because they knew she was dead. Jesus took the girl by hand and called out Get up, my child little girl arise. She immediately got up and Jesus ordered the parent to give her food. He commanded them not to tell what had happened. Teachings from these two miracles The miracle of raising Jairus daughter teaches Christians that Jesus is compassionate and the author of life. He has power over death, resurrection and life. In the miracle of healing the Woman with the flow of blood: a. Jesus made her healing public. This was probably because He wanted to acknowledge the womans faith in the public. Jesus made it clear that her faith made her whole. b. Jesus wanted to challenge the cultural practices that kept women in bandage and could not participate in public life. c. Jesus made her healing public so that the community can receive her back and shall not isolate her again. From this miracle of healing this woman, Christians learn that one; Jesus is the healer. He has power over all sicknesses even those without cure. Two, Christians should have faith in Jesus Christ. Lesson Revision Questions 1. Narrate the healing of the Gerasene demoniac Lk 8: 26-39 2. What lessons can Christians learn fro the healing of the demoniac man above? 3. What do the miracles of Jesus teach us about him? 4. Compare the raising of Jairus daughter and the healing of the woman with the flow of blood Answers. A comparison of the raising of Jairus daughter and the healing of the woman with flow of blood (i) Jairus daughter was 12 years old and the woman sick with the flow of blood had suffered for 12 years. (ii) Jesus referred to both of them as daughter (iii) Their situation death and flow of blood did not have a cure (iv) The public witnessed the miracle of the woman with the flow of blood. (v) Jesus commanded Jairus to keep secret raising of his daughter LESSON TWELVE. COMMISSIONING OF THE TWELVE DISCIPLES Lk 9:1 10 Introduction. Commission means to officially ask someone to do something. Learning Outcomes: By the end of the lesson, you should be able to: a Describe the commissioning of the twelve disciples. b Explain the story of the feeding of the 5000 c Describe the transfiguration of Jesus d Explain the teachings of Jesus on faith and humility. a. The commissioning of the twelve disciples The twelve disciples or followers accompanied Jesus wherever he went. They were regarded as apostles. An apostle comes from a Greek word Apostols which means send out one who is sent or a missionary. The commissioning of the 12 disciples meant that they were given four main duties, power and authority to: a) Exorcise or cast out demons b) Cure diseases c) Heal the sick d) Preach the Kingdom of God and proclaim the arrival of Gods Instructions. They were told to: i) Take nothing for the journey ii) Initiate attack on the forces of evil iii) Depend entirely on God to take care of them iv) Take no stick, no beggars bag, no food, no money and not even an extra shirt for their journey v) Whatever house they entered they were to stay there until they leave the town. vi) If they were not welcomed, they were to leave that town and shake the dust off their feet as a warning to that city or town. With these instructions, the disciples left and travelled to all villages preaching the Good News and healing people everywhere. King Herod was perplexed by the work of the disciples and he desired to see Jesus. b. Feeding of the five thousand. Please open your Bible and read Luke chapter 9. Verses 11-17) After reading these verses, about feeding of the five thousand (5000) people we learn that 1. Jesus is concerned about peoples physical needs 2. Jesus demonstrated that he is the bread of life 3. Jesus has divine power 4. The Church has the duty of continuing to feed its followers both spiritually and physically. 5. The feeding of the 5000 people points to the Messianic banquet 6. Christians must learn to share whatever they have with one another 7. From this miracle, Jesus expected his disciples to appreciate their responsibility. Their work was not only to preach and heal but also feed the hungry. Feeding was both physical and spiritual. The personality of Jesus and his identity Lk. 9:18 27 When Jesus was alone with his disciples, he asked them who people say he is. The disciples told him that some say he is John the Baptist, others say he is Elijah and others say he is one of the old prophets who have risen again. Jesus asked them who they, disciples say he is. Peter replied that he is Christ of God. Jesus then told them not to tell people who he is for he Son of man has first to suffer many things be rejected by the elders chief, priests and scribes, be killed and be raised the third day. Jesus announced to the disciples of his passion (great sufferings) Jesus is the Christ (anointed) of God Messiah as well as the son of man. A divine nature and a human nature. Jesus went on ahead to tell his disciples that they should deny themselves (self denial) take up their cross daily and be ready to lose their lives for Jesus. However, great is the reward for the faithful. LESSON THRTEEN: THE TRANSFIGURATION (LK.9: 28 36) Instructions. Read. Luke chapter 9, verse 28 to 36. Then answer revision questions that follow. A brief summary from the Bible Transfiguration is change or transformation of form or appearance. Jesus was transformed in appearance when he took Peter, John and James to the mountain to pray. During the transfiguration, Moses and Elijah came down from heaven to talk with Jesus about his coming death in Jerusalem. Moses, Elijah and Jesus were in heavenly glory and glorious splendor. Peter, John and James were asleep. When they woke up, they saw Jesus glory. They also saw Elijah and Moses with Jesus. Peter suggested to Jesus that they build three tents for Jesus, Elijah and Moses. As he spoke a cloud overshadowed them. A voice from the cloud said this is my son, whom I have chosen listen to him. The cloud left and the disciples found themselves with Jesus. They kept what they saw and heard to themselves. Significance and importance of transfiguration a. The voice from heaven confirmed that Jesus is the Christ of God, or the Messiah b. Moses represented the Old Testament law. Jesus came to fulfil the Law of Moses. It showed that Jesus was not against the Law of Moses. c. Elijah represented the Old Testament Prophets. This meant that Jesus had fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies. He is above the prophets. d. Jesus is above or greater than the law and the prophets. e. Transfiguration was a way of preparing the disciples for the death and resurrection of Jesus. Death is not the end of life (Moses and Elijah appeared to confirm this) f. The transfiguration prepared and gave strength to Jesus for what lay ahead of him g. Dazzling appearance showed the glory of Jesus h. The transfiguration also shows the importance of encouraging each other. 5.0 Revision questions a. Explain the teachings of John the Baptist b.

Learning Outcomes. By the end of the topic, you should be able to a Identify duties and privileges and cost of a disciple. b Describe the teachings of Jesus on prayer, hypocrisy, wealth and watchfulness. c Describe parables Jesus used to teach about prayer, hypocrisy, wealth and watchfulness. LESSON ONE. DUTIES, PRIVILEGES AND COST OF DISCIPLESHIP Lesson Outcomes. When you read this lesson, you should: 1. Explain discipleship 2. List duties given to disciples by Jesus Christ 3. Explain relevance of Christian discipleship to modern Church Jesus teaching on faith and humility A brief summary from the Bible. Read (Luke 9: 37 50) for details. After the transfiguration, Jesus used two incidents to teach his disciples about faith and humility. One incident was the healing of a boy possessed by an evil spirit (Luke 9: 37 43). Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit out of the boy and the boy was healed. Jesus told His disciples that their lack of faith was the reason why they did not cure the boy. Jesus informed his disciples that faith in him was important when carrying out his work. Jesus teaching on His Work The next question was .. who is to work for Jesus? All Christians can work for Jesus even believers who are gentiles. Read (Luke 9 vs. 49 50). Jesus told his disciples not to forbid others from carrying out his work for whoever is not against Him is for Him. This means that whoever had faith; even the Gentiles could carry out Jesus work. Jesus teaching on His followers Jesus was determined to go to Jerusalem. As He travelled, men volunteered to follow him wherever he was going. Jesus replied that foxes have holes, birds of the air have nests but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head. Jesus had no earthly home. His mission on earth was only for a time. A man requested to follow Jesus but asked permission to bury his father. Jesus told him to let the dead bury their dead. Disciples of Jesus have to leave their families in order to do His Work. Mission of the 72 men. Read Luke 10:1 24 On the way to Jerusalem, Jesus sent out 72 disciples on a mission to promote the Gospel of the Kingdom of God through preaching and service. The 72 disciples were sent in 2s in order to encourage or help each other. The 72 were given instructions. Jesus told them that He has given them power over demons, serpents, scorpion. They have power over all the powers of Satan. When disciples returned, they reported that demons obeyed them. In Luke 10 verse 20, Jesus asked the 72 to rejoice not because demons flee but because their names are written in heaven. Out of the many followers, Jesus chose 12 apostles who learnt from Jesus and became His witnesses. Jesus teaching on the greatest disciple Read (Luke 9: 46- 48). The disciples asked themselves who is the greatest amongst disciples amongst the 12 disciples? In response Jesus took a child by His side and said to the disciples. Whoever welcomes this child in my name, welcomes me, as well as the one who sent me. For the one who is least amongst you shall be the greatest in Heaven. Lessons from this example. Jesus explained that His disciples needed values of humility and simplicity. These virtues were needed to carry out the work of discipleship. Teaching about Discipleship 1. True followers of Jesus Christ must a. Be ready to detach themselves from families and material possessions. b. Be ready to face rejections because not all people will accept them or their message. c. Be ready to serve. d. Be ready to cater for peoples physical needs. e. Be self less. f. Not be hypocrites and should accept hospitality whenever it is given. g. Be able to exercise self-evaluation. 2. Duties of a disciple were: a) To preach the good news of salvation to other people and be ready to suffer for the sake of Christ. b) Obey Gods commandments and follow teachings of Jesus. c) To help the needy spiritually and with material needs. d) To teach others about the Kingdom of God. e) To heal the sick. f) To cast out demons. g) Be prepared to suffer for the sake of the gospel. h) Being loyal to Jesus and faithful to the gospel. i) Commitment and loyalty 3. Privileges of a disciple a) One becomes a member of the Kingdom of God. b) They get an assurance of eternal life. c) They receive joy of winning other people to follow Jesus. d) They receive peace, and blessings of God. How are these teachings relevant to modern church leaders and members? Modern church leaders have a duty to continue preaching Gods word to all people. They should serve God in several ministries such as visiting the sick, caring for orphans, the destitute, widows, widowers, and the aged. They should also be ready to suffer and even face rejection for the sake of the Christ. Exercise 1. What are the characteristics of a true follower of Christ? 2. State the privileges of being a disciple of Jesus Christ 3. Why did Jesus choose the 12 disciples? LESSON TWO: A COMMITTED FOLLOWER OF CHRIST Read Luke 10: 25-37, and Luke 11: 1-13 a. The parable of the Good Samaritan A teacher of law asked Jesus questions in order to tempt him. One was what must I do to receive eternal life? (Read Luke 10: 25 to 28). Jesus replied with a question. What do the scriptures say? He replied and Jesus told him to do as the scripture say. . He asked another question. Who is my neighbour? (Luke 10 v 29). Jesus answered with the parable of the Good Samaritan. In this parable, the righteous people among the Jews, Levites and priests, did not help the injured man. A Samaritan whom Jews considered unclean and sinners helped him. After narrating this parable Jesus asked the lawyer, who of the 3 travelers was a good neighbour? The lawyer said the Samaritan. Lessons learnt from the parable of the Good Samaritan In the above parable, Jesus stressed that a follower of Jesus should be: (1) Committed (2) Show love of God by loving people in need and their neighbours. A neighbour is anybody who requires assistance or help regardless of race, ethnicity, creed, colour or gender. Jesus wants his followers to show love and concern to all people regardless of their background. A neighbour uses his/her resources selflessly to help the needy. A neighbour is also compassionate, kind, and generous to the needy. Jesus Visit to Martha and Mary (Read Luke 10: 38 42) Martha welcomed Jesus in her home where she lived with her sister Mary. While Martha prepared food, Mary sat at Jesus feet listening to his teaching. Martha complained. She was doing all the work while Mary sat listening to Jesus teaching. Jesus told Martha that Mary had made the right choice to listen to His teaching. Lessons we can learn from Jesus Visit to Martha and Mary 1. A committed follower of Jesus is one who creates time to study and listen to Gods word. 2. A follower of Christ should ensure that their commitment to God is not overshadowed by daily duties, worries and responsibilities. 3. Jesus visit to Mary and Martha was also to teach disciples on the characteristics of a true disciple. Revision exercise 1. From the teachings of Jesus, on the parable of the good Samaritan; who do you think is a committed follower of Jesus? LESSON THREE. JESUS TEACHING ON PRAYER (Read Luke 11:1 13) Prayer is communication with God. It is talking with God. People pray to God all the time. For example, people pray to God when: 1. They are in problems and in happiness; 2. Seeking healing and wealth, 3. Giving thanks to God, 4. Identifying the needs to be met, and asking for favors from God 5. Repenting and confessing their sins 6. Thanking God There are many forms or types of prayers. These are: 1. Intercessory prayer Praying for the needs of others. 2. Prayer for repentance for forgiveness of sins. 3. Thanksgiving prayer giving thanks to God for what he has done. 4. Worship prayer prayers to worship God. 5. Praise prayers to praise God, Honor God. 6. Supplication and petition prayer whereby an individual makes their needs known to God and asks for divine intervention. Jesus prayed often during his lifes Ministry. The disciples asked him to show them how to pray. Jesus responded by teaching them the Lords Prayer. Our Father who art in Heaven Hallowed be thy name Thy Kingdom come Thy will be done on earth as It is in heaven Give us this day our daily bread Forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who trespass against us Lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil a) Our Father who art in heaven The disciples were told to address God as Our father. God is to be seen and addressed as a Father. b) Hallowed be thy name The name of God should be respected and revered. c) Thy Kingdom come In Prayer, Christians/disciples are to pray that the rulership of God reign amongst them. d) Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven Christians to obey the will of God. e) Give us this day our daily bread Christians to pray for their needs. f. Forgive us our trespasses we ask for forgiveness of our sins and those of others. g. Jesus taught that one should be persistent in prayer. If a man goes to his friend at midnight and asks for bread to give to his visitor, the friend will open the door and give his friend all that he needs. This is because his friend was persistent in knocking on the door. In conclusion, if prayers are to be effective, one must have faith and be persistent. Believe that God shall answer prayers. A committed follower of Jesus should pray at all times. In prayer, one should acknowledge that God is the Father and that all prayers should be addressed to him. Two, one should have faith that God answers prayers. Therefore we should be persistent in prayer. Reasons why Christians should pray
To honor God To request for favors To offer thanksgiving To confess their sins and seek for forgiveness of sins To seek Gods protection To intercede on behalf of others To strengthen their relationship with God
Revision exercise 1. What did Jesus teach about prayer? 2. What is the importance of prayer? LESSON FOUR: USE OF GODS POWER TO OVERCOME EVIL. Read Luke 11:14 28 Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson, you should be able to: 1. Narrate Jesus teaching about demons 2. Explain why the sign of Jonah was important 3. Describe how Gods power overcomes evil a. Jesus and Beelzebub. (Read Luke 11: 14 to 28) Jesus drove out a mute demon. The possessed man began to talk. The crowd said that Jesus was casting out demons using the power of Beelzebub (the price of demons). Beelzebul was an evil spirit. However Jesus replied Any country that divides itself into groups which fight each other will not last very long, and a family divided against itself will fall. Jesus said it is by the power of God that drives out demons. Lessons learnt i. Satan cannot fight against himself therefore Jesus cannot be an agent of Beelzebub / Satan. ii. Gods Kingdom and that of Satan were two separate Kingdoms and could not co exist. iii. The destruction of Satans power meant that the Kingdom of God was in Israel and it was powerful. Gods power destroyed Satans kingdom. It is impossible to be neutral in the battle between Christ and Satan. One has to belong to either Christ or Satan. iv. Jesus has power to drive out demons. v. Demons occupy people. They bring disabilities and diseases. What makes people to be insane? Mentally sick b. The sign of Jonah. (Read Luke 11: 29 32) After Jesus drove out the dumb spirit, Jews demanded performance of greater miracles. They wanted Jesus to prove that he was their expected messiah. Jesus said that Jonah was a great miracle. But Jesus was greater miracle than that of Jonah, and King Solomon. King Solomon was full of wisdom. He was so great that Queen of Sheba came to listen to his wisdom. Jesus like Jonah had brought a message of judgment. Jesus is greater than Jonah or Solomon. If Jews refuse to receive and listen to Jesus, the Gentiles like Queen of Sheba, will bear testimony against the Jews and receive Gods salvation. c. The light of the body. Read Luke: 11: 33 36 Jesus taught that no one lights a lamp and hides it under a bowl. A lamp is placed where all can see its light. He said that the human eye is the lamp or the light of the body. Jesus asked the listeners to make sure that the light in you is not darkness (vs. 35). What is the main message in this story? LESSON FIVE: JESUS TEACHING ON HYPOCRISY, WEALTH, WATCHFULNESS AND READINESS Introduction Hypocrisy is being dishonest and insincere or pretending to someone else or people. What did Jesus teach about hypocrisy? Learning outcomes. After reading these verses in Luke: 1. State what Jesus taught on hypocrisy 2. Explain value of wealth 3. Discuss how modern Christians can be watchful and ready for the coming of Jesus Christ a. Hypocrisy. Read Luke 12: 1- 12 A Pharisee invited Jesus to his house for a meal. When Jesus did not wash before eating the meal, the Pharisee was surprised. Jesus told him .. you Pharisees clean the outside of your cup and plate, but inside you are full violence and evil, greed and wickedness (vs. 39). Jesus condemned the Pharisees for their hypocrisy. They were concerned with outward appearances and traditions such as ceremonial washing of cups, hands, and dishes but not the souls of people. They loved the outward show and public recognition. Pharisees tithed, but neglected justice and love of God (vs. 42). They imposed rules and regulations for people to follow, yet they themselves did not practice what they preached. They refused to confess their sins but pointed out sins in others. They hinder others from entering the kingdom of God. They had failed to make people understand the true interpretation of the law. They were like unmarked graves dead to people yet the people trusted them. After this teaching, the Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to oppose Jesus fiercely. What do we learn from Jesus teachings? Followers of Jesus should be 1. Sincere and upright (honest); (2) obey Gods commands; (3), live to please God but not other people; (4) confess publicly their loyalty to God and (5) love God without fear and (6) be dependent on the Holy Spirit b. The Parable of the Rich Fool. (Read Luke 12:13 to 21). Someone wanted justice. His brother had refused to share with him his fathers wealth. He wanted Jesus to order his brother to divide their fathers inheritance between him. In response, Jesus answered him with the parable of the rich fool. A rich man expected a good harvest of his crops. He thought he did not have storage for the crop he expected to harvest. The man said to himself. i will demolish my granaries and stores, then build bigger ones to store all my corn, and other goods. He expected to have enough food to last him a lifetime. Then he can enjoy his wealth; eating, drinking and making merry. But God told him that his life would be demanded from him that same night. What will happen to his wealth, as he was not rich in Gods sight? Lessons to learn i Followers of Jesus should not put their trust in material wealth but in God ii Life consists of food, other material wealth and trust in God iii Whoever seeks Gods kingdom, will receive material blessings from God iv Jesus did not condemn material possessions but rather the attitude towards material possessions. v Jesus condemned attachment to material wealth instead of trust in God who controls our lives. c. Watchfulness, Readiness, and Instructions. (Read Luke 12: 35 59) Jesus told his disciples to be: i Watchful and ready for the return of the Son of Man i.e. Jesus. ii Faithful servants so that when Jesus returns, he will find them ready and acting responsibly iii Watchful of possible divisions in families iv Royal to Christ v Ready for the coming of the Son of Man. He will come at unexpected time; like a thief who comes when the owner of the house is not aware. vi Observing things of the kingdom of God, which were present in the person of Jesus. vii Like good servants, and watch over the affairs of the master. viii Be decision makers and follow the teachings of Jesus without being watched. Review questions 1. In what ways were the Pharisees hypocritical? LESSON SIX: THE KINGDOM OF GOD Learning Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to 1. Explain the teachings of Jesus about the kingdom of God 4. Narrate the parables of a. The unfaithful fig tree b. The mustard seed c. Parable of the feast d. Parable of the great feast e. Parable of the lost sheep and the lost son The Kingdom of God Kingdom of God refers to rule of God, or Gods authority on peoples lives and the world He created. The kingdom of God was present in Jesus. It is now and in the future reality. The teachings, and miracles of Jesus were a manifestation of the Kingdom of God. For anyone to enter Gods kingdom, one has to repent and ask for forgiveness. The Kingdom of God continues to grow and spread through the work of the Church. Those who accept the teachings of Jesus Christ about Gods Kingdom are members of the Kingdom of God. Now to enter the Kingdom of God, one has to repent and not judge others. Read Luke 13:1-5. Luke has explained the kingdom of God and outlined who will enter it. The Kingdom of God has unfruitful fig tree (Read Luke, 13: 6 9). A farmer had a fig tree that was unproductive for 3 years. He ordered the gardener to cut it down. The gardener requested for the fig tree to be given another chance. He promised to dig around the fig tree and add fertilizer. If it bears fruits well, it can survive, if it doesnt bear fruit, then it should be cut down. Lessons learnt from the parable The unproductive fig tree represents followers of Jesus who are unproductive because they do not follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. God gives people chances to repent just like the fig tree was given a second chance to bear fruit. Jesus is the gardener who pleads for people before God. The followers of Jesus are expected to be fruitful. What are the figs used for? a. Parable of the mustard seed. Read Luke, 13:18 19 Jesus likened the kingdom of God to a mustard seed, which is very small. When a mustard seed is planted, it grows fast to become a big tree. It is difficult to control its growth. When mature, the fig tree attracts many birds, which feed on its seeds. Lesson learnt from the parable. The Kingdom of God
Begins as a small seed and grows quietly and humbly Then it grows and spreads to all corners of the earth And It attracts many people
b. Parable of the Yeast. Read Luke, 13: 20 21 The Kingdom of God is like yeast. Yeast makes dough rise and the bread big. The Kingdom of God grows secretly and slowly just like the dough rises without being noticed. It is only God who knows how a kingdom grows. The Kingdom of God grows as a small unit that eventually grows, spreads and reaches out to many people in many nations.
c. The narrow door. Read Luke, 13: 22 30 As Jesus was teaching in towns and villages, a person asked him whether a few people would be saved. Jesus replied that his followers should make every effort to go through the narrow door as it leads to the Kingdom of God. The narrow door will not remain open forever. Lesson learnt from the parable
Those who wish to follow Jesus must repent immediately Entrance to Gods Kingdom is through repentance Everybody is invited to enter into the Kingdom of God.
d. Jesus heals a crippled woman on the Sabbath. Luke, 13:10 12 Jesus was teaching in the synagogue on Sabbath. Jesus healed a woman who had an evil spirit, which had bent her back (Hunch back) for 18 years. Jesus saw her and told her woman, you are free from your illness! She was made straight and immediately glorified God. The official of the synagogue was annoyed that Jesus was healing on a Sabbath. He and others were hostile to Jesus for healing/working on the Sabbath. Jesus told him, you hypocrite. You feed and look after your animals on the Sabbath day. Jesus emphasized that human life is more important than animal life or even observing the Sabbath. Lessons learnt from the parable Jesus came to set people free from the bondage of sickness and Satan. Jesus work of liberation is continuous. It has to be performed even on a Sabbath day because human life is more important than animal life or even observing the Sabbath. e. Jesus Love for Jerusalem. (Read Luke13: 31 35) As Jesus continued with his teachings, he reached Jerusalem. Pharisees informed him that Herod wanted to kill him. His response was go and tell that fox I will continue healing the sick and casting out demons. Jesus however, lamented over Jerusalem for rejecting Gods messengers. God would abandon Jerusalem for rejecting Jesus. Jerusalem was the site of Jesus death. It would eventually acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah who brings salvation to Israel and to the rest of the world. f. Man with dropsy healed (Read Luke 14:1 6). Jesus was invited to the house of the leading Pharisees for a meal on a Sabbath. A man with dropsy (swollen legs and arms) came to Jesus for healing. The Pharisees watched Jesus closely to see what he would do. Jesus asked the Pharisees does our Law allow healing on the Sabbath or not? They kept quiet. Jesus healed the man who then left. Jesus asked the Pharisees, would they save their son or an ox if it fell in a well on a Sabbath. They kept quiet. g. Humility and Hospitality. (Read Luke 14: 7 14) Jesus was in the house of a leading Pharisees and observed that some of the invited guests were choosing the best places to sit at the table. He taught the disciples how to be humble. He said, when invited for a meal, let the owner give you a seat of honor that is reserved for important and honorable guests. Read verse 11. Jesus advised his host to invite the poor, cripples, and the blind who cannot invite you, as they have nothing to give back for generosity. Lessons learnt from the parable Jesus is teaching about humility and hospitality. Those who are humble shall be elevated. Those who elevate themselves shall be humbled. Followers of Jesus should extend invitations to the poor and the underprivileged in the society. The Kingdom of God belongs to the humble people. c. The parable of the Great Feast. Read Luke, 14: 15 24. A man said to Jesus, How happy are those who will sit down at the feast in the Kingdom of God (verse 15). In response Jesus told him that a man made a great feast and invited many friends and colleagues to the feast. The invited guests failed to come and a servant was sent to inform them that the feast was ready. All the invited guests gave personal excuses explaining why they could not come. The master was angry and asked the servant to invite the poor, crippled, lame, the blind and anyone willing to come to the feast. Lessons learnt from the parable God has invited all people to the great feast of the Kingdom of God. Those who honor his invitation will be blessed. Those who reject the invitation will be excluded from the feast. Jesus explained that the Kingdom of God is like a great feast open to all Jews and Gentiles. To enter the Kingdom of God, one has to make a personal decision because following Jesus means sacrificing activities that we consider important to us. d. The Cost of Being a Disciple Read Luke 14: 25 33 True discipleship means loving Jesus more than ones family. This is a great sacrifice to detach oneself from the family. A disciple must be ready to suffer for the sake of following Jesus. Following Jesus requires skills of careful thinking, planning and detailed preparations. Jesus compared true discipleship to the planning required when building a tower or engaging in a military operation. Lessons / teachings learnt from the parable True discipleship means making great sacrifices, none of you can be my disciple unless you give up everything you have (verse 33). Jesus disciples are expected to do careful planning before deciding to follow him because they are required to love God more than anyone else even their relatives and friends. e. The parable of the Lost Sheep Read Luke, 15:1 7 Pharisees and teachers of law complained to Jesus because Jesus was teaching ordinary people such as tax collectors, and outcasts considered sinners by them. Jesus told the Pharisees and teachers of law the parable of the lost sheep. He told them that if a shepherd with 100 sheep lost one of them, what action would he take? Wouldnt he leave the 99 sheep and go out to look for the lost sheep? And on finding it, wouldnt the shepherd celebrate with friends and neighbours? Jesus said that God celebrates if over one sinner who repents than over 99 respectable people who do not need to repent. Lessons / teachings learnt from the parable iii God is a shepherd and takes care of all his people. iv He does not want any of his people to be lost. v God searches for those lost in sin until he finds them. vi When one sinner repents, God is overjoyed and rejoices. vii God is the good shepherd who has come to seek and save the lost. f. Parable of the Lost Coin. Read Luke, 15: 8 10 If a woman losses one of her ten silver coins, she searches until she finds it. And if it is found, she invites her friends and neighbours to celebrate. Lessons learnt from the parable God and the angels in heaven search make every effort to seek the lost sinner until they find them. Jesus lights the world, looking for sinners who are lost because they are precious in Gods sight. g. Parable of the Lost Son (prodigal son) Read Luke 15:11 32 Jesus then told the story of a father who had two sons. The younger was given his share of inheritance he had requested. He went to foreign lands and wasted his inheritance. He became poor and decided to return home and ask his father to forgive him and employ him as a servant. His father kissed him and celebrated his return. The father announced to his guests that the son who was lost is now found. - The one who was dead is now live. The elder son was angry and unhappy because his father had never held a celebration for him, inspite of his hard work and obedience. His father told him my son you are always here with me, and everything I have is yours. We are just celebrating the return of the lost son. Lessons learnt from the parable a. A person dies spiritually if they sin b. God loves all people including sinners c. God is ready to forgive every sinner who repents d. There is no sin that God cannot give e. Jesus taught that both the righteous and unrighteous require Gods forgiveness f. There is joy and happiness in heaven when one sinner repents. g. Christians should confess their sins and acknowledge that Jesus saves repentant sinners h. God accepts unconditionally any sinner who comes back to him in repentance i. Confession of sins is a condition for entering the Kingdom of God. A GREAT FEAST FOR ALL WHO ARE PREPARED Luke 14: 1 35 SAQ. What are the qualities of those who belong to the kingdom of God? Answer. Qualities of people who belong to the Kingdom of God Those who belong to the Kingdom of God: i. Obey Gods commandments ii. Accept Gods rule in their lives iii Show Gods love to others iv Are ready to make sacrifices so as to be followers of Jesus v Read Gods word and preach to others vi Confess their sins and seek forgiveness of their sins through repentance. Review questions 1. Give an explanation of the term Kingdom of God 2. What did Jesus teach about the kingdom of God? 3. What lessons do Christians learn from the parables of the lost son? Answer 1. The term Kingdom of God means the role of God or Gods authority in peoples lives and the world. LESSON SEVEN: TEACHINGS ON WEALTH AND POVERTY. LK 16:1 32 Learning Outcomes. By the end of the topic, you should be able to: a) Explain the teachings of Jesus on wealth, and poverty b) Narrate the teachings of Jesus on repentance Introduction While wealth is possession of material things such as money or occupation of a high social economic status, poverty is the opposite. It is lack of basic needs such as water, education, food, shelter, clothing, and health. When teaching about wealth, Jesus taught using two parables. These were: (1) parable of the shrewd manager (2) parable of the rich man and Lazarus Parable of the shrewd manager Read Luke, 16: 1 18 When the shrewd manager realized that his master was going to sack him due to his dishonesty, he asked the debtors to change the amounts they owed their master to smaller amounts. He did this to make friends with a few people who would give him a place to stay after he was sacked. The master praised the shrewd manager and did not sack him. The shrewd manager is praised not because of his dishonesty but because he acted promptly and with great presence of mind in a moment of crisis. Jesus is encouraging his disciples and followers to make prompt (quick, appropriate, timely) decisions. They should use wealth to serve God. It should not be allowed to take the place of God. Followers of Jesus should be honest in small and big things. The Rich Man and Lazarus. Read Luke, 16: 19 31. A rich man lived in luxury. At his gates was a poor man, called Lazarus whose body was covered by sores. The rich man did not feed Lazarus. He ate food remains together with the rich mans dogs. When rich man died, he went to hell. When Lazarus died, he went to heaven and sat at Abraham/s bosom. When in hell, the rich man was tormented while Lazarus was at peace. Lessons to learn from this parable. The rich isnt condemned for being rich but because of his altitude towards Lazarus. He used his wealth for self-gratification and not for service to the needy. The wealthy should realize that it is God who gives wealth and he should be given honor. Riches can hinder the wealthy from inheriting eternal life, especially if they put their trust in riches instead of God who is the source of all wealth and blessings. Revision exercise 1. From the parable of the rich fool what can Christians learn about the use of wealth? 2. Narrate the parable of the shrewd manager LESSON EIGHT. JESUS TEACHING ON FORGIVENESS Read Luke 17: 1 4 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you shall explain the power of Christian faith. Sin. Read Luke 17: 1-4. Jesus taught his disciples to forgive offenders who repent. Those who sin should seek forgiveness. If they offend 7 times in a day, forgive them 7 times. Followers of Jesus need faith to forgive others. The power of faith. Read Luke, 17: 5 11. Faith is defined as complete trust or confidence in God. It is absolute truthfulness and trust in everything that comes from God. The apostles asked Jesus to increase their faith. Followers of Jesus should have faith. Faith has no measure. Faith as big as a mustard seed can empower Christians to perform miracles that serve God. Faith is necessary. With faith, Christians can forgive others and be servants of God. Disciples should have faith. Christians understand that they owe everything to God. Jesus heals ten lepers. Read Luke, 17:11- 19 Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem when he met ten lepers. They requested Jesus to heal them. Jesus told them to go and show themselves to the priests. On the way, they were healed. One of them, a Samaritan, returned to thank Jesus for healing him. The Samaritans and the Jews did not associate. Jesus told the Samaritan that his faith has made him whole. Faith is necessary for healing any disease. Leprosy is a disease that leads to loss of fingers, toes and other parts of the body. It was a dreadful skin disease, which Jews feared. Lepers were isolated from other people. They lived dejected lives The coming of the kingdom. Read Luke 17: 20 37 The Pharisee demanded to know when the kingdom of God would come. Jesus replied that the kingdom of God was within those who had accepted Jesus and his teachings. Those who wanted had received the kingdom. Faith is necessary to discover the power of Gods kingdom. The coming of the son of man, i.e. Jesus will bring the kingdom to reality. The coming of the son of man is also referred to as the day of the Lord, Day of Judgment. Read Luke, 21: 27- 28. Those who obey Jesus will be saved but those who reject him will be punished. Lessons to learn. God expects Christians to have faith in him. Christians should have faith in Jesus so that they can inherit eternal life. Faith is needed to strengthen Christians. Faith is important in the life of a Christian until Jesus returns, i.e. the second coming. Revision exercise 1. What did Jesus teach on forgiveness LESSON NINE. PERSISTENCE IN PRAYER, Read Luke, 18:1 14 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, discuss the values of persistence in prayer To teach about persistence in prayer, Jesus used two parables. These were the parables of: the widow and a corrupt judge and examples of prayer by a Pharisee and a tax collector. a. The widow and the unjust judge. Read Luke, 18: 1 9 Jesus had already taught the disciples how to pray. He now tells them that they ought to pray and not faint. He gives a parable to explain his point. A widow went to a corrupt judge to have her adversaries judged. The judge was corrupt and ignored her. He however gave in to her demands since she was persistent and wearing him down. The judge helped her because of her persistence and courage. Lessons learnt from the parable Followers of Jesus should pray with courage and be persistent in prayer. God hears and answers prayers. Christians should pray without ceasing and with faith and trust that their prayers will be answered. b. Parable of the Pharisee, and tax collector, Read Luke, 18:9 14 A Pharisee and tax collector went to the temple to pray. The Pharisee offered a long prayer focusing on his achievements. The tax collector (publican) did not have much to say except asking for mercy, as he was a sinner. Followers of Jesus should acknowledge they are sinners and seek forgiveness. They should approach God in humility and avoid spiritual pride, and self- righteousness. Revision exercise 1. State the parable of the widow and the unjust judge LESSON TEN. THE WAY TO SALVATION, Read Luke, 18: 15 19: 1 27. Introduction: The word salvation refers to the act of saving or being saved from sin. Those who have received salvation area assured of eternal life. To receive salvation a person must acknowledge that he is a sinner and repent their sins. In this way, they receive forgiveness and are reconciled to God. Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. State the meaning of salvation b. Discuss characteristics of salvation c. Give examples of those who will enter the Kingdom of God. d. Explain how Jesus predicted his death Introduction Salvation means being saved from a life-threatening situation. In Christianity, salvation refers to the process of being delivered from sin and its consequences. Those who are saved are assured of eternal life. Jesus taught about salvation using children to illustrate his message. This is what happened. Some people brought their children to Jesus so that he could bless them. The disciples scolded them. Jesus asked the children to come to him and he blessed them. Jesus taught his disciples that they must be humble like children in order to enter the kingdom of God. The road to salvation is by being simple, humble, and trusting like little children. The kingdom of God belongs to those who humble themselves like the little children. The rich man. Read Luke, 18:18 30 The entry into the kingdom of God was further explained through the story of the rich man. The rich man came to Jesus wanting to know how he could inherit eternal life and be saved. Jesus reminded him of the importance of keeping the commandments. The young man responded that he had observed the commandments since he was young. Jesus told him there is one thing remaining to do; sell everything he has, and give it to the poor, and then follow Jesus. The rich man was very sorrowful for he was very wealthy. Wealth can hinder the rich from receiving salvation. Jesus acknowledged the sacrifice made by his disciples. He emphasized that disciples shall receive salvation in the present and in life to come. Salvation is a gift from God. Salvation is received; by those who accept to follow Jesus. Trusting in wealth can be a hindrance to salvation. The rich may find it difficult to inherit eternal life. Jesus predicts his death, a 3rd time. Read Luke, 18: 31 34. Jesus predicted his death a three times. First was after asking his disciples who they say he was. The second time was after transfiguration when his face was set towards Jerusalem. The third prediction shall be in Jerusalem (Luke 18:31-34). Jesus told the disciples that previous prophecies would be fulfilled in Jerusalem. His death was going to take place in Jerusalem according to the writings of the prophets. It was going to be a painful death. He shall be beaten, mocked, spit upon and put to death. But on the third day, he shall rise again. The disciples did not understand what Jesus was telling them. Jesus had to die so that those who believed in him may receive eternal life. The death and resurrection of Jesus gives Christians hope of eternal life. Jesus heals a blood beggar. Read Luke, 18: 35 43 As Jesus neared Jericho, a blind man sat by the roadside begging. When he heard the multitude pass by, he inquired what was going on and he was told that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. He then cried out Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me The crowds rebuked him but he cried out louder to Jesus to have mercy on him. Jesus asked him what he wanted. He said he wanted to see. Jesus told him to receive his sight for his faith had made him whole. The beggar was joyful and he followed Jesus rejoicing. Lessons learnt. Christians should have faith in Jesus. They should also be persistent and make specific requests. LESSON THIRTEEN: JESUS AND ZACCHAEUS LK 19:1 9 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, a. Narrate events leading to salvation of Zacchaeus b. Explain meanings of the story of the man who gave gold coins to his servants Zacchaeus was short. His profession was a tax collector. He was rich. He wanted to be saved. When Jesus was passing by Jericho, he wanted to see Jesus. He couldnt because he was short. He ran and climbed a sycamore tree to see Jesus. When Jesus came to the place where Zacchaeus was, he looked up and said Hurry down, Zacchaeus, because I must stay in your house today (verse 5). Jesus then went with Zacchaeus to his house. When people saw this they grumbled, and murmured. They said that Jesus was going to a house of a sinner. Jesus told them that salvation has come to the house of Zacchaeus, a son of Abraham the Son of man came to seek and save the lost. There is no sin that God cannot forgive, even that of a tax collector. Zacchaeus told Jesus that he was going to give to the poor half of his wealth and whatever he took from any man and woman wrongfully, he will restore four times. From this salvation, we learn that the rich should share their wealth with the needy. The Parable of the Gold Coins: Luke, 19: 11 27. A certain nobleman went to a far country. Before he left he called his ten servants and gave each a gold coin (ten pounds in total). He told them to trade with the coins until he returns. When he returned, he called the servants to report profits they had made. The first servant said that one-pound coin had made profit of 10 pounds (gold coins). He made the manager of ten cities. The second servant had traded and gained 5 pounds. He was made the manager of 5 cities. The third one had hidden the pound. He did not trade. He accused the master of being mean, and cruel. He returned the pound, which was given to the servant with 10 pounds. Lessons to learn. This parable was about the kingdom of God. God expects us to use opportunities he has given to us for his work. Each one of us shall account for the use of the abilities and skills that God gave to us students, workers, and other professionals. To receive eternal life, Christians should repent and be obedient to Gods instructions. Revision questions 1. What did Jesus teach by using the example of little children? 5. Give an account of how Jesus healed the blind beggar 6. Explain the relevance of Jesus teachings on salvation to Christians TOPIC FIVE: THE JERUSALEM MINISTRY. Luke, 19: 28 21: 38 Lesson Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should: a. Describe the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem b. Narrate events in the cleansing of the temple c. Discuss Jesus teachings about eschatology LESSON ONE: THE TRIUMPHANT ENTRY OF JESUS TO JERUSALEM LK. 19:28 40 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. Explain why Jesus rode on a young colt into Jerusalem b. Discuss why Jesus wept over Jerusalem b. Describe what Jesus did when he went to the temple a. The triumphant approach to Jerusalem. Luke 19: 28- 40. Jesus death had to happen in Jerusalem. Hence Jesus went to Jerusalem. He sent two disciples to a place where there was a colt (young donkey) that no person had ever ridden. They took it to Jesus. They threw their garments on the colt, and Jesus sat on it. As Jesus rode, people spread their clothes on the road. As Jesus neared Jerusalem, a large crowd of his disciples began to praise God (vs37). The crowd said blessed be the king who comes in the name of the lord. The Pharisees told Jesus to rebuke the disciples. Jesus told them if the disciples kept quiet the stones would start shouting. Jesus made his entry into Jerusalem in a royal (kingly) procession. He was Israels humble king who came with peace and not a political leader. He rode on a donkey a symbol of peace. This was unlike the political kings who rode on the horses during that time. b. Jesus weeps over Jerusalem. Read, Luke 41- 44. When Jesus was near Jerusalem he wept. He then foretold the coming destruction of Jerusalem due to its rejection of the messiah. The rejoicing of his triumphant entry to Jerusalem turned to mourning as he foretold the destruction of Jerusalem by Romans in 70 A.D. c. Jesus goes to the temple. Read Luke 19:45 48. Jesus went to Jerusalem temple and evicted traders. He told them that the house of God is a house of prayer not a den of thieves. Jeremiah spoke these same words during his temple sermon. The chief priests and scribes began planning how to kill Jesus. LESSON TWO. PHARISEES, SCRIBES QUESTION JESUS. LUKE 20 1-47 Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson you should be able to: - 1. Describe the question about the authority of Jesus 2. Describe the parable of the tenants in the vineyard 3. Describe the question about paying taxes 4. Describe the question about resurrection 5. Describe Jesus teachings against the teachers of law 6. Describe the parable of the widows offering a. The question about Jesus authority. Read Luke, 20:1 8. The Jewish leaders wanted to know from Jesus by whose authority he was doing all the things he was doing. In response Jesus asked them did Johns right to baptize come from God or from human beings? (Vs4). They discussed among themselves and decided not answer. Jesus told them neither will I tell you. In response to his authority being questioned he told a parable. b. The parable of the Tenants in the Vineyard. Read the parable in Luke, 20: 9 18. The tenants refused to pay the owner of the vineyard his share of the harvest. They threw out the servants he sent to collect his share of the harvest. When he sent his son, they killed him so that they can own the vineyard. Jesus asked the people What will the owner of the vineyard do to the tenants? c. The Question about paying taxes. Read Luke 20:19-28 Pharisees, and scribes (teachers of the law) and chief priests planned to arrest Jesus but they were afraid of the people. They sent spies to trick Jesus by asking this question - is it against our law for us to pay taxes to the Roman Empire, or not? Jesus used the currency and told them pay the Emperor Caesar what belongs to him and pay God what belongs to God. (Verse 25) This was a tricky question. Jesus here teachers people to obey the rules of the land and to obey Gods rules. d. The Question about Resurrection The Sadducees who did not believe in resurrection tempted Jesus with another question. They wanted to know this. When resurrection comes, who shall be the husband to a woman who was married to the first brother and inherited as a widow by the other six brothers? Jesus told them the men and women who shall be worthy of resurrection shall not marry. They shall be like angels and cannot die (verse 34 to 38) e. Jesus warns against the Teachers of the law Jesus warned his disciples. Be careful and guard yourselves against teachers of the law, the scribes. They were hypocritical. They wore long robes, said long prayers, looked for positions of honor and exploited the widows. f. The Widows Offering. Luke, 21: 1- 4 When people were giving offerings in the temple, a widow gave two little copper coins. Jesus said the poor widow had given all she had. Likewise Christians should give to God not to be seen but from their hearts. It is not the quantity of the gift that matters but the attitude of the giver. LESSON THREE: THE TEACHINGS OF JESUS ABOUT ESCHATOLOGY LK. 21: 5 38 Eschatology is from two Greek words, eschatus and logos. Eschatus means end, Logos means study. Eschatology means the study of the end times or in CRE the last days of Jesus. For biblical information, read Luke 21:5-38 and Mathew 24: 1 36 and Mark 13:1-31. Learning outcomes. After this lesson, you should: a. Identify signs of end times b. State uses of the temple during the time of Jesus c. Discuss ways in which Christians can apply the parable of the fig tree d. State relevance of Jesus teachings on eschatology a. Signs of the end times. Jesus gave many signs that will inform Christians that end of the time has come. These were to happen at different times. The signs were: a) Destruction of the temple of Jerusalem by invading armies which shall surrounded it b) Hatred of disciples and Christians because they were followers of Christ c) Rejection of disciples by families because they were followers of Christ d) Betrayal of the followers of Christ e) Prosecution and imprisonment of Christians. f) Many false messiahs.

The parable of the fig tree Lk.21: 29 33 Jesus used the parable of the fig tree to explain more about the end times.

He forgot who was Jesus. Judas agreed to betray Jesus probably because: a. He belonged to the party of Zealots who wanted political changes b. He was probably frustrated by Jesus approach to the Kingdom of God which was establishing a peaceful spiritual kingdom c. He expected Jesus to establish a political kingdom d. He was greedy for money e. Satan entered him LESSON ONE: THE LORDS SUPPERS/ THE LAST SUPPER. LK 22: 7 13 The last supper was the lost Passover meal that Jesus took before his arrest. Passover is celebrated in obedience to Gods command to Moses. It is a remembrance of Israels deliverance by God from slavery in Egypt. a. The Passover meal Preparations for the Passover, Read Luke 22: 7 23. Peter and John were sent by Jesus to go and prepare the Passover meal. They were to do so in a house in the city. They were taken to the house by, a man who was carrying a vessel of water. They were given a big furnished upper room upstairs. They prepared the Passover meal as instructed by Jesus. Passover meal During the meal with the 12 disciples / apostles Jesus told them that this was going to be his last meal with them before his death. He took a cup of wine gave thanks to God and said Take this and share it among yourselves. I tell you that from now on I will not drink this wine until the Kingdom of God comes. The cup of wine was his blood that he was going to shed for them. Wine therefore symbolized the blood of Jesus, shed for the purification of humankind and forgiveness of sins. This blood is the New Testament and covenant with Christians. After drinking of wine, He took a piece of bread, gave thanks to God and shared it and told them that the piece of bread represented his body which is given for them. He presented his death as a sacrifice whose blood sealed the new covenant. His death replaced the sacrifices of the Old law, those of animals, which sealed the Sinai covenant. The new covenant will be for all people including Gentiles. This is to fulfil Gods promise of salvation for all people. Jesus and disciples ate Passover together so that henceforth Christians would eat the meal together in remembrance of Jesus. Passover was initially taken to remind them of the deliverance from Egypt. But during the last supper, Jesus gave the Passover a new meaning. As they ate, Jesus foretold of his betrayal by one of his disciple. SAQ. i. Which items were used to celebrate the Passover in the Old Testament? ii. What items do modern Christians use to celebrate the Lords Supper? Comparisons of the Lords Supper and the Passover (a) The Passover commemorates the divine act of redemption of the Jews from their bondage in Egypt while the Last Supper commemorates the deliverance of human kind from sin. (b) The Passover feast reminded the Israelites that they were free, redeemed people while the Lords Suppers is to remind Christians of their forgiveness of sins. The death of Jesus set Christians free from sins. (c) Passover was followed by the Old covenant of Mount Sinai. The Lords suppers is a new covenant based on the death of Jesus for sins of humankind (d) Passover (Old testament) was sealed by the blood of Lambs while New Covenant (Lords suppers) is sealed by the blood of Jesus on the cross. (e) Items for celebrating in Passover (old testament) are different from the cup of wine and pieces of bread used by Jesus to celebrate his last supper with the disciples. Relevance of the Lords Supper today Christians celebrate the Lords supper. This celebration is called the Eucharist, the Lords suppers, or Lords meal. Christians celebrate it as an act of repentance; through which they receive assurance of forgiveness of their sins. The presence of Jesus becomes a reality when Christians share bread and wine. Bread and wine are symbols of heavenly feast, which Christians will partake in Gods kingdom. The Lords supper is also a sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to God. It is a time for rededication to Christ and self-renewal. Through the celebration of the Lords supper, Christians anticipate the second coming of Jesus and the establishment of Gods Kingdom. It is also a time to remember the death and resurrection of Jesus and reflect on Gods love for humankind. b. The Argument about Greatness. Read Luke, 22: 24 30 A question arose among the disciples. They wanted to know who among them was the greatest? Jesus told them that they do not belong to the world system of authority given on the basis of wealth and fame. The authority among the disciples will be determined on the basis of their service to others. The greatest is the servant. Jesus likened himself to a servant hence disciples are called to serve. By sharing in trials and sufferings of Jesus, the disciples will share in his ruling power over the new Israel. Leadership in church should be understood in terms of service being a servant of people. In the community of Christians, all people who are followers of Jesus are all equal. SAQ. In your opinion, which are the signs of greatness in the world? c. Jesus Predicts Peters Denial. Read Luke, 22: 31 38 Jesus told peter that Satan had received permission to test or tempt all the disciples but Jesus had prayed for Peters faith not to fail. Jesus told Peter that he shall deny Jesus three times before the cock crows. Jesus was telling his disciples that they will encounter hostility in their evangelism hence they should be prepared for suffering and opposition because of Him as Isaiah 53:12 says he shared the fate of evil men. Jesus death was imminent inevitable. The disciples were expected to be strong LESSON TWO: PRAYER, ARREST OF JESUS AND DENIAL BY PETER Learning Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you shall: a. Narrate the events that took place at Mount of Olives b. Describe the arrest of Jesus c. Discuss Peters denial of Jesus d. Describe the arrest of Jesus a. Prayer on the Mount of Olives. Read Luke. 22: 39 46 After celebrating the last supper, Jesus went to the Mount of Olives with his disciples to pray to resist temptation. Jesus went ahead of his disciples, knelt down and prayed. Jesus left them to pray by himself. He said Father if you will, take this cup of suffering away from me. Not my will, however, but your will to be done (42). An angel came to strengthen him. He prayed earnestly, in agony and turmoil great than the physical pain. He sweated great drops of blood. After praying, Jesus found his disciples asleep worn out by their grief vs. 45). Jesus asked them to wake up and pray to avoid temptation. Significance The disciples fell asleep. This was a sign of moral and physical exhaustion. Jesus expressed inner struggle about the fulfillment of his messianic mission. He prayed for Gods help. Christians should always pray to avoid temptation and seek Gods help. b. Betrayal and arrest of Jesus. Read Luke, 22: 47 53 Jesus was arrested by: the chief priest, elders, officers of the temple guard, and a crowd of people as he talked to his disciples. He was taken to the house of the high priest. Judas had identified Jesus with a kiss. Jesus asked Judas him Judas, is it with a kiss that you betray the Son of man? Jewish religious leaders had come to arrest Jesus as they arrested other criminals. Jesus told his disciples not to resist his arrest. He rejected armed resistance refusing the role of a political messiah. Peter followed him from a distance. c. Peters Denies Jesus. Read Luke, 22: 54 65 After Jesus was arrested he was taken to the house of the High Priest. As Peter sat warming himself with others, a maid identified Peter. She said, This man too was with Jesus. Peter denied knowing Jesus three times. After the third denial, the cock crowed just as Jesus predicted. Jesus turned and looked at Peter who remembered the words of Jesus. Peter went out and wept bitterly (Vs. 62). Weeping was a sign of repentance LESSON THREE: THE TRIALS AND CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS Lesson Outcomes. By the end of this lesson. You should a.

Trial by the Sanhedrin Lk.22: 66 71 After being taken to the house of the High Priest, the next morning Jesus was taken to the Jewish religious council or court; called the Sanhedrin. They all asked him if he was the messiah. Jesus told they wouldnt believe whatever he says. But the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of Almighty God. (Vs. 69). Jesus told them he was the Son of God. The Sanhedrin accused Jesus of blasphemy, a sin punishable by death. ii. Trial before Pilate. Read Luke 23: 1 5 The second court was the Roman court. The judge was Pilate, the Roman Governor. In this court the Sanhedrin accused Jesus of: Inciting people to revolt, and rebelling against Roman authority Forbidding people to pay taxes to the Emperor Claiming to be the king, a Messiah,
They could not accuse him of blasphemy before Pilate since this offence was not acceptable under the Roman law. Pilate asked Jesus if he was the king, Jesus replied, So you say. (vs.3). Pilate found no fault with Jesus so he sent him to Herod. iii. Trial by Herod. Read Luke, 23: 6 12 Herod was in Jerusalem. When Jesus was brought before him, he expected Jesus to perform miracles to impress him. He asked Jesus many questions and Jesus kept quiet. Herod and his soldiers mocked Jesus, and ridiculed him. They put on him royal clothes; then sent Jesus back to Pilate. iv. Jesus is sentenced to Death. Read Luke 23: 13 25 Jesus was brought back to Pilate a second time. Pilate repeated that Jesus was not guilty (innocent) of any crime. Pilate offered to have Jesus beaten and then released. The crowds, leaders and chief priests gave their judgement. Kill him! and release Barabbas, who was a rioter and a murderer. Pilate did not find Jesus guilty. But he did what they wanted. He released Barabbas and handed Jesus over for them to do as they wished (vs. 25). v. The crucifixion of Jesus. Read Luke 22: 26-43 Jesus was led away to be crucified. Solders forced Simon of Cyrene to carry the cross for Jesus. Women followed Jesus and weeping. Jesus told them not to weep for Him but for themselves and their children. Jesus was then crucified at a place called Golgotha (place of skull) or Calvary together with two male criminal; one on His right and the other on His Left. Jesus asked God to forgive them (persecutors) for they did not know what they were doing. The Jewish leaders, said He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Messiah whom God has chosen (vs. 35); Solders mocked Jesus and said Save yourself if you are the king of Jews and one criminal hanged with Jesus mocked Jesus and told Him Arent you the Messiah? Save yourself and me. The other thief rebuked him saying they deserved the punishment for their deeds but Jesus had done nothing. This thief repented and told Jesus, Remember me, Jesus, when you come as King. Jesus told him that he would be in paradise with Jesus on that day (vs. 42 43). On top of the cross, Jews wrote, This is the King of the Jews (vs. 38). LESSON FOUR: DEATH OF JESUS. Read Luke. 23: 44 50 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, a. Describe the death of Jesus b. Narrate the burial of Jesus c. State relevance of the suffering and death of Jesus to Christian life today a. The death of Jesus. There was darkness from 12 oclock until thee oclock. The veil/curtain of the temple tore into two. Jesus cried out with a loud voice Father, into they hands I commit my spirit. At this shout Jesus died. The Roman centurion saw and praised God. He declared, Certainly this was an innocent man. The multitude that watched the crucifixion and death went home beating their breasts, a sign of repentance. The women, who knew Jesus from Galilee, stood at a distance watching all these things. b. The burial of Jesus. Read Luke 23: 50 56. Joseph from Arimathea, a town in Judea sought permission from Pilate to bury the body of Jesus. He was waiting for the coming of the Kingdom of God, a likely secret disciple of Jesus. He was a good and honorable man. The body of Jesus was laid in a sepulchre (Tomb) where nobody had ever been laid. Jesus burial in Josephs tomb fulfilled Isaiahs prophecy that the suffering servant of Yahweh was buried in a rich mans tomb (Isaiah 53:9) The Galilean women and Joseph saw where the body of Jesus was laid. They went home, and prepared spices to use to wash Jesus body. They rested on the Sabbath. c. Relevance of the suffering and death of Jesus Christ to Christian life today Christians today should practice or do the following activities. i. Pray in times of sorrow, pain, trials and temptations. iii They should not give up when rejected. iv They should be aware of hypocrites and traitors amongst them. v They should be willing to suffer for the sake of the Kingdom of God. vi They should be ready to fight for a just cause vii They should never condemn the innocent. viii They should go through their suffering bravely. ix They should know and accept suffering as a part of the Christian calling x They should not be afraid of rejection by people l xi They should be encouraged that Jesus suffered for them. d. In which ways can Christians prepare for their death? Death is inevitable. Hence, Christians should at all times: live a holy life, repent sins, forgive those who have wronged them, make a will, accept death as inevitable, and read the word of God LESSON FIVE: THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Read Luke 24: 1 53 a. The Resurrection. Resurrection refers to the event of Jesus rising from the dead After the Sabbath day, on Sunday morning; Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, Salome (Joanna) and other women, went to the tomb with the spices they has prepared. They found the entrance open. The stone covering the tomb was rolled away. The tomb was empty. The body of Jesus was not in the tomb. Suddenly, two men, who were angels, appeared dresses in dazzling and shining clothes. They said Why are you looking among the dead for one who is alive? He is not here; he has been raised. The women went and told the 11 disciples, who did not believe them. Peter ran to the tomb and found it empty. Women were the first to witness the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This is significant as they (women) were empowered to become witnesses of Christ as evangelists beyond the Jewish culture. b. Witnesses of the resurrection of Jesus The disciples en route to Emmaus Two disciples were traveling to Emmaus, which was 11 km from Jerusalem discussing Jesus suffering, death and the empty tomb. Jesus met them but their eyes were blinded and they did not recognize him. The disciples explained to Jesus the events that had taken place and how they had hoped that Jesus would liberate Israel from the Roman rule. Jesus explained to them the scriptures concerning the messiah. When they got to Emmaus, they invited him to dine with them for it was evening. When Jesus, took the bread and said the blessings; then he broke the bread and gave it to them, the disciples recognized Jesus but he vanished out of their sight (vs. 30-31). They returned to Jerusalem and told the 11 disciples that Jesus has risen. c. Jesus appears to his Disciples. Read Luke 24: 36 49. As the two disciples explained the event that happened on the journey to Emmaus, Jesus came and said to them Peace be with you (vs. 36). Disciples were terrified and frightened. He asked them to look and touch his hands, and feet. He was not a ghost. He has flesh and bones unlike ghosts, which do not have. He explained to the apostles his mission, which was prophesied by prophets, and written in the Law of Moses, and Psalms (v.44). He commissioned the disciples to preach repentance and remission of sins and be his witnesses. He also promised to send them the promise of the father (Holy Spirit) SAQ. What was the nature of the resurrected body of Jesus? d. The ascension of Jesus, Luke, 24: 50 53 From Jerusalem, Jesus took his disciples to Bethany, a town outside Jerusalem. He lifted his hands and blessed them. As he blessed them, he was lifted up and carried to heaven. The disciples worshipped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy. They continued to go to the temple to praise and give thanks to God. The disciples were now confident about their mission and who Jesus was e.

Give the main teachings of Jesus on the sermon on the plain The sermon on the plain consisted of five main parts namely: Blessings (Lk 6: 20 26) and woes These are also referred to as the beatitudes. Here, Jesus had a message for the poor, the rich, those who hunger and those who are full, those who weep and those who laugh. His concern is to show the social differences and mystery of Christian suffering. Persecution seems to be a common phenomenon for followers of Christ. The poor are those who cannot meet their basic needs and Luke depicts them as hungry and weeping. The disciples are included in the poor because they have given up everything. But Jesus gives hope. Jesus warns the rich against using their economic points to oppress the poor. They have an opportunity, however to belong to the Kingdom by using their riches to help the needy. Love of Enemies: (6:27-37) Followers of Jesus are supposed to Love your enemies, do good to those who hate, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who abuse you. Judging Others (6:37-43) Disciples are expected to acknowledge their own shortcomings before they can condemn the faults in others. Failure to recognize ones fault is a hindrance to becoming a member of the Kingdom of God. Evidence to Good Discipleship The proof of a persons goodness is seen in his deeds. The true nature of a person cannot be hidden because what they do and say will reveal their nature. Hearing and Doing (6: 47-49) It is not enough for His followers to proclaim Christ as Lord. They must also do what He tells them. Q2. What is the relevance of the (beatitudes) sermon on the plain to Christians today? The teachings on blessings and woes tell us that the goal of a person should be to inherit the Kingdom of God. Christians should love their enemies as Jesus loved them sinful as they were. Human beings are self-centered. It is easier to see other peoples mistakes than our own Christian should examine them before passing judgement on others. By so doing we appreciate that we are all sinners who should seek forgiveness from God and we should always appreciate others however sinful they may be. Be steadfast in faith and do good all the time. LESSION 9: JESUS WORKS OF COMPASSION Q2 Narrate the story of the forgiveness of the sinful woman (Lk 7:36-8:3) On one occasion, Jesus was invited by Simon the Pharisee to his house
to eat with him.
While this is a sinful woman walked into the house weeping. She began to wet Jesus feet with her tears and wiped them with her
hair.
She kissed his feet and anointed them with an ointment. When Simon saw this, he questioned Jesus power. If he were a prophet,
He would have noticed that the woman was a sinner.
And Jesus answered him the telling him about a certain creditor who
has two debtors, one owed him hundred denarii and the other fifty.
When asked Simon which of the two debtors would love the creditors
more.
Simon said the one who was forgiven more. Jesus said you have judged rightly. Then he had not given Him even water to wash His feet. But the woman used her tears to wet Jesus feet and wiped them using Jesus told Simon he gave him no kiss but the woman had not stopped
kissing Him.
Those at table began to ask who Jesus was who ever forgiven sins? And He said to the woman, Your faith has saved you, go in peace.
Q3. What lessons do Christians learn from the above story?
Christians should accept their sins and seek for forgiveness as the sinful
woman did.
Faith is important for one to be forgiven. Jesus told the woman Your
faith has save you.
A repentant sinner is greater than a righteous man (the Jewish religious
leaders).
It is not the magnitude of sin that matters but the attitude of a person
towards his sins.
Shows the importance of women in the ministry of Jesus.
Q4. Describe the story of the raising of the widows son at Nain (Lk 7:11- 17)
After His preaching in Capernaum, Jesus went to the city of Nain. He found a man being carried out near the gate. He was the only son of a widow. When the Lord saw her, He had compassionate on her and said to her,
Do not weep.
Then He came and touched the open coffin. And those who carried him stood still. Jesus said, Young man, arise. And he who was dead sat up and began to speak. Jesus presented him to his mother. Then fear came among all and they glorified God. They said a great prophet has come among us. God has visited His LESSON 10: JESUS TEACHING WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF PARABLES? 1. Give reasons why Jesus used parables To attract the attention of his listeners To help his listeners understand better To separate the serious people from the onlookers To enrich his teachings To avoid direct confrontation with his enemies It was a common way of teaching those days To teach about Gods mercy to sinners To make people think critically out issues concerning Gods kingdom To relate patent issues with those of the future kingdom positively Qn 2.

LESSON 11: MIGHTY WORKS OF JESUS Q1 Narrate the healing of the Gerasene demoniac Lk 8:26-39. After crossing the Sea of Galilee, Jesus came across a demon
possessed man in a gentile town called Gerasa.
The man had been living in the caves used for burial of the dead. He wore no clothes. When the man saw Jesus, he asked Him not to torment him. When Jesus asked him what his name was, he responded that he was
called Legion which stands for 2000 6000 soldiers.
This meant that this man possessed by many demons. Jesus had sympathy and ordered the unclean spirits to leave him. Jesus let the evil spirits to go to the pigs, which were grazing nearby. They then fell into the lake and drowned.
Q2. What lesson can Christian learn from the healing of the demoniac man above?
Jesus valued human life. That is why He led the evil/spirits into the pigs, which drowned into the lake and saved the man.
It shows Jesus came for all regardless of tribe. This man was a gentile. Jesus heals the whole person physically and spiritually. That Jesus has power over evil spirits. Shows that Jesus came to destroy the power of evil. It teaches that Christians have to fight the power of evil constantly. But
with Jesus help they will overcome it.
God will never allow them to be defeated. He will come to their aid,
however, much.
They should give out their material possession to save those in need.
This man needed help.
They should tell their people about God as this man went to in his
village etc. Q3. What do the miracle of Jesus teach us about Him?
They show that Jesus is the Son of God. That Jesus gets power from God. That Jesus shares his power with His disciples. The miracles show Jesus compassion to suffering people e.g. the raising
of the widows son.
They also show that Jesus is Lord. He is the life and the resurrection. That affirms that Jesus came to save man from sin. They show that Jesus is a universal savior e.g. the Gesarone demoniac
who was a gentile.
They were part of His teaching they helped Him teach. Through them He showed the concern for human life, physically,
spiritually and mentally. LESSON 12: COMMISSIONING OF THE TWELVE DISCIPLES (LK 1:1-10) Q1. What is the role of the clergy in Kenya? Help the needy e.g. give them food, shelter etc. Hold seminars/workshops where they lead people into forgiveness. Being a good example for emulation.

LESSON 13: THE TRANSFIGURATION Q2. Describe the transfiguration of Jesus (Luke 9:28-37)
Jesus needed encouragement and reassurance that what He was about to
do was the will of His Father.
Therefore He took with Him Peter, James and John and went to Mount
Hermon to pray.
As He prayed, His appearance was changed and His face became
dazzling white.
Two men, Elijah & Moses appeared and talked of His departure (death),
which He was to accomplish in Jerusalem.
The disciples were asleep as this happened. When they woke up, they saw glory and the two men who stood with Him.
And as the men were parting form Him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it
is well that we are here, Let us make booths, one for you, one for Elijah and one for Moses.
As he said this, a cloud cursed the whole area and they were afraid. A voice came out of the cloud saying, this is my only son, my chosen,
Listen to Him. Q3. What is the significance of the transfiguration of Jesus (Lk 9:28-37)?
A voice from heaven confirmed that Jesus was the Son of God. It strengthened the faith of the disciples so that they would continue
with His work after death.
It showed that Jesus had fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies and
God. This is seen with the appearance of Elijah and Moses.
The cloud was a symbol of Gods presence. It was a sign that Jesus mission was no longer a secret. It marked the
onset of His passion, which would lead to His death.
It confirmed to Jesus that He was doing the right thing and God was in
support of His suffering.
It shows that faith in prayer can lead us to Gods presence.

neglected justice and love for God.
He criticized them for recognition in the synagogues by taking reserved
seats and their desire to be noticed at market places by wearing long white robes.

prophets of God. LESSON 6: (Lesson 6 will come later) AKUKA FIND THEY ARE IN THE TEXT LESSON 7: JESUS TEACHINGS ON WEALTH AND POVERTY Read Lk: 11:13-34 : Parable of the rich fool Q1. From the parable of the rich fool, what can Christians learn about the use of wealth? It teaches that wealth comes from God. Wealth should not be misused e.g. in drinking, etc. We should thank God for wealth received. It can make Christians to forget God.
Q2. Narrate the parable of the shrewd manager
Jesus taught the following parable about a rich man and his servant. A rich man wanted to sack his manager. He called the manager and
asked him for a full account of how the property was being managed.
The manager knew he was going to be sacked. He made friends with
some of his masters debtors so that they would take care of him if he got sacked.
One debtor who owed 100 barrels of olive oil was asked to pay 50
barrels and one who owed 1000 was asked to pay 800 barrels.
The master praised him for being wise and acting property in his
moment of crisis. LESSION 8: TEACHING ON FORGIVENESS What were the teachings of Jesus on forgiveness? Jesus taught that one should forgive and forget All sins are equal before the eyes of God. One ought to ask for forgiveness after he has wronged. One should forgive as many times as he is offended. One should have faith when asking for forgiveness. PERSISTENT IN PRAYER Q1. State the parable of the widow and the unjust judge 18: 1-8
Jesus told the Pharisees a parable to the effect that they ought always to
pray and not lose heart.
In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor regarded
man. And there was a widow in that city which kept coming to him and
wanted her right given.
For a while he refused, but afterwards he said to himself, though I
neither fear God nor regard man, yet because this widow bothers me, I will allow her set her right or she will wear me out by her continual coming.
And the Lord said, Hear what the unrighteous judge says, and will he
not vindicate His elect who cry to Him day and night?
Will he delay long over them, I, you, He will vindicate them speedily.
LESSON 10: THE WAY TO SALVATION Lk 18: 15 19 Q1: What did Jesus teach by using the example of little children?
Jesus said, Let little children come to me because the kingdom of God
belongs to such as them.
He went on to tell them that for one to enter Gods kingdom, he must
humble himself like children.
This is because children are powerless, innocent and open. Jesus taught that the kingdom of God is for those who are simple,
humble, innocent and trusting like children. Q2. Give an account of how Jesus healed the blind beggar (18:35-43) A blind man recognized Jesus as the messiah. The blind man asked Jesus to heal him. He received his sight because of his faith. He followed Jesus, giving thanks to God. To receive salvation one needs to be bold and determined. We should seek Christ to heal our physical and spiritual blindness. Q3. Explain the relevance of Jesus teaching on salvation to Christians Christians learn that they need to repent their sins and seek forgiveness
in order to receive salvation and eternal life.
They need to humble themselves like children in order to earn salvation. They learn to obey the commandments of God so as to receive
salvation.
Use their abilities to glorify God e.g. the rich mans parable. They too learn that wealth can be a hindrance to salvation. They learn that salvation is given to all by God.
TOPIC FIVE: THE JERUSALEM MINISTRY Qn a. describe Jesus triumphant entry into Jerusalem according to Luke chapter 19: 29-30 After his journey from Galilee ended, Jesus approached Jerusalem passing through Bethaphage, Bethany and the mount olives He sent two of his disciples to a village to get him a donkey on which nobody had ridden He gave the disciples instructions that if the owner of the donkey demanded to know why they were untying it, they were to respond, The lord has need for it When they got the donkey, they threw their garments on it and helped Jesus to sit on it As Jesus rode along, they spread their garments on the road The crowds following him rejoiced and praised God for all the wonderful work Jesus had done this included: teaching, healing and feeding the hungry The crowds sang, Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the lord. Peace in heaven and glory in the highest. By singing, the crowds acclaimed Jesus as king. The Pharisees objected to the crowds singing and asked Jesus to silence them Jesus responded that if his followers were silent, the very stones would cry out. Insensitive than stones not to know what was happening, that is, the Messiah has come Qn b. what does the manner of Jesus entry into Jerusalem reveal about the nature of the kingdom of God? Jesus was a descendant of David, prophesied Messiah and son of God Jesus is a triumphant, victorious yet a humble king. A donkey is a symbol of humility and peace. So he came to establish a peaceful kingdom Jesus wanted to proclaim the coming of his kingdom but not as an earthly/ military leader, thus leading them to lay their garments for him to step on. In doing this, they were acknowledging Jesus as Jerusalems promised king Jesus was greeted as a king the same way the kings of Israel were greeted with acclamation and joy By riding on a donkey, Jesus fulfilled the prophesy of Zechariah which says, the king is coming riding on a donkey triumphant, humble and victorious Christianity is not propagated through violent means but peace Qn c. what lessons can Christians learn fro Jesus triumphant entry into Jerusalem? Christians learn that they should be prepared to receive Jesus into their lives like the crowd which escorted him to Jerusalem Christians also learn that they should emulate Jesus and be channels of peace in their communities
They also learn that they should expect opposition and resistance as they witness to Christ. They should not give up hope Christians learn that they should be humble like Jesus in their service to others Christians should thank and praise God for his intervention in their lives by sending Jesus They should be bold in their witnessing to Christ like the crowds that followed Jesus to Jerusalem and declared him king Qn d. state and explain why Jesus wept over Jerusalem. When Jesus came close to the city of Jerusalem he wept over it saying, If you only knew what is needed for peace! But now you cannot see it! The time will come when your enemies will surround you with barricades block you and close in on you from every side. They will completely destroy you and the people within your walls, not a single stone will they leave in its place because you did not recognize the time when God came to save you. According to Luke, all song and rejoicing stopped suddenly when Jesus was deeply distressed at the sight of Jerusalem Jesus knew that Jerusalem (the city of peace) would reject his final appeal and by so doing would bring judgement down on itself. The destruction of the city is viewed as the consequence of its rejection of Jesus. They cannot see when the true peace comes in the person of Jesus. The coming destruction is a symbol of Gods judgement on lack of trust. The tears of Jerusalem are the tears of tragedy. The heart of the tragedy is that Jerusalem did not recognize the time when God came to save them Now Jesus says that Jerusalem was not ready to receive him as their savior and this would lead to her ruin Just like the Babylonians were Gods instrument of destruction of Jerusalem during the time of Jeremiah, so will the Romans be instruments of destruction of Jerusalem Jerusalem was completely destroyed by the Roman armies in the year A.D 70 Qn e. Explain the cleansing of the temple. While in Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple where he found people buying and selling He drove them out and overturned their tables saying that they had turned his fathers house into a den of robbers Here Luke uses this incidence to show how Jerusalem was still unprepared for the day of Gods visit Jesus carried out a symbolic act by driving out those who were buying and selling in the temple Jesus used the words of Jeremiah who too attacked the in his time for turning the temple into a hideout for thieves According to Jesus the temple will no longer give them the sense of security because it will be destroyed Although the temple will be destroyed, a new one will be built. This is the Christian community, which will be a house o prayer for all nations. The new temple will not be limited to Jesus alone but to all people In short Jesus is the Messiah. He exposed the unrighteousness of public life in Jerusalem by attacking the merchants in the temple Qn f. Give reasons why Jesus cleansed the temple of Jerusalem The temple authorities had allowed a market in the court of the gentiles where the everyday money issued by the Roman government could be exchanged for the special temple coins which had to be used for paying the temple tax In the same place they could also buy the animals needed for sacrifice. This animals had to be certified as acceptable But both the changing of money and the certifying of animals gave ample opportunity for making exorbitant profits Jesus made his protest because all this trading was hiding for the real purpose of the temple and prevented Israel from being a light to the gentiles. For this reason, the temple would be destroyed because it was no longer serving as a house of prayer. Qn g. what lessons can Christians learn from the cleansing of the temple? Christians learn that they should respect the house of God and use it appropriately Christian leaders should avoid exploiting members through asking for excessive contributions Christians should pay more attention to inward righteousness than external observance of rituals Christians should have more courage like Jesus to condemn evil practices by leaders in the church and society Christians should be exemplary with their life styles so as to win others to the kingdom Finally the cleansing of the temple by Jesus provides valuable lesson to Christians who are called upon to be Christs ambassadors. There are many incidents where churches have been subjected to disrespect and dishonor and this discourages many people from knowing God. Christians should also avoid leadership wrangles, corruption, sexual abuse, gossip and many others that have caused churches to split Qn h. explain Jesus conflict with the Jewish leaders In a series of conflicts in and around the temple between Jesus and the official leaders of the Jewish nation, the public ministry of Jesus came to its close After the cleansing the temple, he daily dominated the temple area teaching large crowds. His popularity grew steadily and the leaders felt the threat against their own position. They could not allow this to go on but they were afraid to arrest Jesus. In the end they tried to trap him into making statements which would either get him into trouble with the Roman authorities or discredit him before the people First Jesus was challenged about his authority. The Jewish religious leaders wondered whose authority Jesus used. They wanted to know which Rabii taught him or to which Jewish religious groups he belonged to i.e. the Pharisees or the Sadducees If Jesus proclaimed himself as the Messiah he could be accused before the Roman authorities for rebellion If he refused to make his claim the crowds would soon leave him alone But Jesus skillfully defeated his adversaries. He invited them to answer their own question. Tell me, did Johns right to baptize come from God or human beings? Whatever answer they gave to Jesus question about John the Baptist would apply in even stronger measures to their own question about Jesus But they had never supported John and they could no now admit that his right to baptize came from God If they did they would also have to accept Jesus whom John had announced. Neither could they say John was a prophet for that would bring trouble from the people who held John in high self-esteem Qn i. Describe the parable of the tenants in the vineyard After the question of Jesus authority, Jesus challenged the Jewish leaders by telling them the parable of the wicked tenants. He said that there was once a man who planted a vineyard, let it to the tenants and then left home for a long time When the time came to gather the grapes, he sent a slave to the tenants to receive from them his share of the harvest but the tenants beat the slaves and sent him back without a thing. The same treatment was given to the second and the third slave The owner decided to send his own son whom they killed. He therefore decided to come by himself, killed the tenants and handed over the vineyard to other men When the people heard this they said, surely not but Jesus explained to them the stone which the builders rejected as worthless turned out to be the most important of all. And every one who falls on the stone will be cut to pieces and if that stone falls on someone, it will crush him to dust In this parable, the vineyard represents Gods kingdom, Israel. The servants are the prophets sent to Israel and they are rejected. The son here represents Jesus and the owner is God who will bring judgement on Israel The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone this shows that Jesus saw himself as the rejected but most important. He makes a new foundation of Israel for both Jews and Gentiles. On hearing this, the Pharisees wanted to seize Jesus but were afraid of the people Qn j. what is the relevance of the parable of the tenants? Over the centuries the situation has not changed. Jesus is still rejected by nations and by men What happened to Jesus happened as he foretold those who follow him Church history reveals many examples of men rejected by political and religious leaders and by the people their time and who have later been seen as the key man in the revelation of Gods purpose As Christians we should also pray for strength and guidance from God to be able to deal with rejection As Christians we should not fear rejection but stand firm for the truth Christians should also seek pastoral counseling fro the church leaders and other Christians. When we endure persecution we may be finally proved right Qn k. the question about paying taxes The teachers of law and the chief priest, after falling to arrest Jesus bribed some spies to ask whether it was right for the to pay taxes to Caesar or not The Israelites were compelled to pay taxes to the Romans who controlled them Many resented this because according to them payment of taxes using coins which had some emperors image was a violation of the Jewish law which forbade the use of images If Jesus would tell them to pay, the people would be against him for supporting Roman rule over them Many resented this because according to them people would be against him for supporting Roman rule over them If he told them not to pay, they would accuse him to the Roman authorities Jesus knew their trick and wanted his questioners to make their own decision about the issue According to him it was right for the Roman government to exert the tax payments without demeaning Gods authority In other words, by having the silver coin in their possession, the Jews accepted Roman authority
They had a duty to pay tax to the emperor because they enjoyed the benefit of the Roman rule At the same time they had a duty to be loyal to God. A persons loyalty should not be owed to the state or Caesar Qn l. explain the question about resurrection The Sadducees raised the question concerning marriage an resurrection or life after death They asked Jesus whose wife a woman would be in the resurrection when she married seven brothers who had died without bearing children The question was meant or designed to make Jesus look foolish thus to shame him. This would undermine the popular support that we had prevented action against Jesus In his response, Jesus made the following observations He does not accept the assumption that marriage continues after resurrection Quoting from exodus a book that the Sadducees accepted, Jesus confirms that there is life after death The resurrection life is different from earthly life It is a new existence where those who resurrect, live with God as his children in eternity Qn m. what is eschatology? The term eschatology is derived from two Greek words Eschatus and Lagos, which means end and study respectively Eschatology therefore is the study of the last things such as death, judgement, life after death and th end of the world
Jesus talked about the end of the world to his disciples just before he was arrested Qn n. what will happen at the end of the world (eschatology) according to Jesus teaching in Lukes gospel 21: 5-38? Jesus taught hi disciples about the end times in the temple of Jerusalem In his speech, he talked about what will happen to the city of Jerusalem and the world at the end of time Jerusalem was going to be destroyed because of her refusal to recognize and accept the Messiah Jesus told the disciples of the signs that would accompany the end of the world People come claiming to be Jesus the Messiah, the son of God There will be wars between nations Natural calamities like earthquakes, famines and plagues will occur Strange heavenly beings will come from the sky There will be disruption in the sky and in the sea All nations will be in despair People will faint from fear as they witness these signs At the end of all these, the son of man will appear in power and glory Jesus teaching of the end times was meant to provide encouragement to the disciples in difficult times They were expected to have hope Qn o. how do Christians prepare for the second coming of Christ? Christians should prepare for the second coming of Christ by not losing hope in the face of trials and tribulations because the kingdom of God with its promises of a new life will definitely come
They prepare for his second coming by leading a righteous life. They are to avoid too much feasting and drinking They should prepare by being watchful through prayers so that God will give them courage and strength to stand firm in their faith They should prepare by preaching the word of God to those who have not heard it They should prepare by being obedient to Gods commandments They should prepare by helping the needy They should prepare by preaching and evangelizing and converting others TOPIC SIX: THE PASSION, DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST THE LORDS SUPPER Qn a. give the different names used in reference to the Lords Supper by Christians in different churches The holy Eucharist The mass The lords table or the table of the lord The Holy Communion The Last Supper The breaking of bread The sacrament Qn b. describe the institution of the Lords Supper Jesus was at the last supper with his disciples the night he was betrayed In the room which had been arranged by Jesus. He told his disciples how much he had longed to eat the Passover meal with them before he suffered death
He took a piece of bread and gave thanks to God and broke it. He gave it to them saying, this is my body which is given for you. So do this in memory of me He took a cup of wine and gave thanks to God and said take this and share it among yourselves He also gave them a cup of wine after supper saying this cup is Gods new covenant sealed with my blood which is poured out for you Qn c. state the Christian teachings about the Lords Supper The Last Supper was inaugurated by Jesus Its celebration of the crucified and rise Christ The Lords Supper is a gift from God It is a sacrifice of praise and thanks giving It is the churchs effective proclamation of Gods mighty works acts and promises It is a sign of the unity of the church or the believers It is a new paschal meal of the church. The meal, which by visible signs communicates Gods love in Jesus Christ. It is the sacrament of Christs real presence The bread is a symbol of the body of Christ which was crucified The wine or cup is a symbol of his blood, which was shed. It is the blood of the new covenant It is a fore state of Christs passion and of the final kingdom. It is symbolic of the heavenly banquet It is central to Christian worship. (Eucharist) Qn d. what is the meaning of the Lords Supper to Christians? The sacramental meal communicates Gods love in Christ The washing of the disciples feet by Jesus signifies humble service to and love for one another They proclaim the lords death until his second coming They share in the body of Christ The unity of Christians is evidenced The bread symbolizes the body of Jesus which was crucified on the cross for the sins of human kind and for the healing of their diseases The wine symbolizes the blood of Jesus which was shed for forgiveness of sins The wine also symbolizes the sealing of a new covenant The partaking of the Lords Supper strengthens the faith of believers in that, Christs presence is felt and in this way they constantly keep in touch with him The lords supper enhances a personal relationship between the individual believer ad Christ It is thanksgiving to God for everything accomplished in creation, redemption and sanctification Through the Holy Communion, Christians offer themselves as a holy and living sacrifice. They rededicate and renew themselves. Those who share in the sacred meal declare their loyalty to Christ The Lords Supper is an act of repentance. The partakers receive re- assurance of the forgiveness of sins and are assured of salvation The bread and the wine which represents the body and blood of Jesus become the final sacrifice replacing all O.T sacrifices that were offered for the salvation of the human race Qn f. Prayer on mount olives After celebrating the last supper, Jesus and his disciples went to mount olives He knelt down and prayed and asked his disciples to join him In response, God sent an angel from heaven to encourage him Jesus prayed in agony until his sweat was like drops of blood This sweat which was like blood was an indication of the struggle and agony he went through to accept the will of his father Though Jesus suffered agony and turmoil, he approached it with great courage and composure His suffering was even greater for it involved more than physical pain. It meant bearing the sin of the world So he prayed to God, his father to give him strength for his coming mission When he went back to his disciples, he found them asleep a sign of moral and physical exhaustion or maybe it was an indication that they were in sorrow because Jesus had told them he was about to be crucified In conclusion, we can say that Jesus expressed an inner struggle about the fulfillment of his Messianic mission. So he prayed to God to help him bear the suffering. Prayer was very important in Jesus ministry Qn g. describe the betrayal and arrest of Jesus When Jesus came down from Mt. Olives he met a multitude of people Judas Iscariot appeared accompanied by a large crowd, the chief priest, elders and the temple guards who had ordered to arrest Jesus Judas Iscariot came forth and kissed Jesus. This was a sign identifying Jesus as the man they were looking for. That kiss was the betrayal When the disciples noticed what was happening one of them used his sword to cut off the ear of a high priests slave In other words Jesus stopped his disciples from resisting his arrest By rejecting armed assistance, Jesus was refusing the role of a political Messiah Jesus was arrested and taken to the house of the chief priest Annas Qn h. state the reasons that made Judas Iscariot to betray Jesus He lacked moral courage to stand by Jesus during his moment He could have been an informer of the Jewish religious leaders He was overcome by the power of evil He was disappointed by Jesus teaching on spiritual kingdom rather than fulfilling the Jewish expectation of a political Messiah who could liberate them from the Roman rule He was a mercenary motivated by greed for money He had little faith in Jesus or lost his trust in Jesus Christ He was not loyal to the master He was a northerner who felt foreign and thus was jealous against other disciples He was a zealot who believed in war rather than peace Qn i. Describe the trial of Jesus under the following The council of Sanhedrin Jesus was brought to the Sanhedrin council early in the morning following his arrest The council of elders asked him if he was the Messiah Jesus responded by speaking of the son of the man coming in triumph The Sanhedrin accused him of the sin of blasphemy for allegedly claiming to be the son of God He was condemned to die for alleged blasphemy In the Jewish law, blasphemy was punishable by death The trial before Pilate Since the Sanhedrin could not carry out the death sentence, they took Jesus to the Roman governor Pilate They accused Jesus of inciting the people to revolt, forbidding payment of taxes and claiming to be a king in rebellion to Roman authority They could not accuse Jesus of blasphemy. This charge would not be accepted under Roman law However, by taking Jesus to Pilate, the Jewish religious leaders wanted the Roman authority to take responsibility for Jesus death The trial before Herod Jesus ministry works had mesmerized Herod. So when Pilate learned that Jesus was from Galilee, he handed him over to Herod who was the district officer of Galilee and happened to be in Jerusalem at that time The trial of Jesus before Herod (only mentioned in St. Lukes gospel) is not really a trial because king Herod only wanted to satisfy his curiosity about Jesus He joined the soldiers in mocking Jesus Jesus refused to answer Herods questions and he consequently sent Jesus back to Pilate Interestingly the mockery by Herod and his soldiers as another step in the public ridicule of Jesus. It will continue as he hangs on the cross Pilates judgement Jesus was brought to Pilate a second time Pilate reiterated that he found Jesus not guilty of any crime The chief priests prevailed upon Pilate who passed a sentence of death on Jesus to die by crucifixion. This was the punishment of high treason according to the Roman law The Jewish leaders asked that Barnabas a criminal be released instead of Jesus It was customary for a convicted person to be released during the Passover So the Jewish leaders and not the Jewish people or Pilate were responsible for Jesus death Jesus was killed because of the blind hatred of the Jewish leaders Qn j. why do you think Pilate agreed to have Jesus crucified? He was afraid of a Jew revolt. It was his duty to maintain peace in his territory in accordance with the expectations of the Roman emperor. If he had released Jesus, the Jew would have caused a disturbance He did not want to be disloyal to the Roman emperor after learning that Jesus had been accused of treason. Disloyalty could have resulted in losing favor with the emperor and consequently his job He washed his hands. This means that he was absolving himself of the guilt of having Jesus crucified. This is because he had learnt from the Jewish leaders that Jesus was the Son of God. His wife had also cautioned him about Jesus innocence. Pilate himself had found no evidence to convict Jesus Qn k. identify and explain the lessons that Christians learn from the actions of Pilate during the trial of Jesus Jesus is the king of the Jews
Jesus is without sin. Pilate found no guilt in Jesus and he sent him to Herod Pilate gave in to their demands on the grounds of treason- Christians should refrain from giving false witness Pilate was afraid of a revolt. It was his duty to maintain peace as a Roman officer. Christians learn that they should not be compromised by worldly standards Christians should stand firm for the truth because the truth will always prevail Christians should strive not to loose favour with God. They should desire to please God rather than man Pilate washed his hands he learnt that Jesus is truly the son of God (innocent) Great evil can happen when the truth is at the mercy of political pressure Christians should take time before making decisions Resisting the truth leaves a person without purpose or direction Qn l. actions taken by the Jewish leaders to ensure that Jesus was put to death They paid Judas Iscariot to betray him They bought false witnesses to accuse him of blasphemy before Sanhedrin/ blasphemy was punishable by stoning to death They hurriedly tried Jesus at night before people knew what was happening They framed treason charge against Jesus when he appeared before Pilate/ treason carried a death sentence
They employed armed temple guards and armored soldiers to deal with those who would fight for Jesus They blackmailed Pilate to have Jesus crucified They organized a mob to shout for the death of Jesus and release of Barnabas They crucified him dead when they got permission from Pilate Qn m. explain the crucifixion of Jesus Jesus was given the cross beam to carry to his crucifixion site Simon of Cyrene helped him carry it A group of women followed Jesus and wept over his plight Jesus asked them to weep over themselves and their children He talked about the impending destruction coming over Jerusalem Jesus eventually arrived at Golgotha and was nailed on the cross Two criminals were crucified on either of his sides After his crucifixion, the soldiers cast lots to divide his garments. This action fulfilled psalms 22: 18, Jesus is the righteous Messiah who suffers unjustly and is mocked by people as he cries to God The soldiers, Jewish leaders and one of the thieves mocked Jesus for claiming to be the royal Messiah Jesus is mocked with the challenge to save himself One of the criminals crucified with Jesus usually referred to as the repentant thief acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah and admitted the justness of his own condemnation Above Jesus it was written, this is the king of Jews Jesus forgave his killers and all those who had accused him falsely. He promised one of the thieves hanging on the cross a place in paradise Qn n. describe the death of Jesus The death of Jesus was preceded by extra ordinary happenings Darkness covered the land for three hours The curtain in the temple tore into two Jesus died after crying father into thy hands I commit my spirit On seeing Jesus die, the Roman centurion who was present testified to Jesus innocence. As he recognized Jesus lordship In his death, Jesus showed total commitment to Gods will Qn o. the burial of Jesus Joseph of Arimathea, a rich and righteous member of the Sanhedrin asked Pilate to allow him bury Jesus Joseph could have been a secret disciple of Jesus Jesus burial in Josephs grave fulfilled Isaiahs prophesy concerning the suffering servant of Yahweh who was buried in a rich mans tomb A group of women followed Joseph and saw where he buried Jesus They went back home to prepare spices with which to wash Jesus body after the Sabbath Jesus was indeed a king judged by the way he was buried THE RESURRECTION: Qn p. define the term resurrection The term resurrection refers to the event of Jesus rising from the dead. This event took place on the third day i.e. the Sunday morning after Jesus was crucified on Friday afternoon Qn q. the witnesses of the risen Christ The testimony of the repentant thief He rebuked his unrepentant companion He recognized his own sinful condition He declared Jesus to be sinless He professed in Jesus true Messiah-ship and Lordship He recognized that Jesus would live and exercise his saving power after he died The testimony of Joseph of Arimathea Joseph of Arimathea was a secret disciple of Christ He witnessed to the lordship of Jesus Christ after his death by his actions He did this by seeking permission from Pilate to bury the body of Jesus By giving Jesus this royal burial he was witnessing to the truth that Jesus was king Testimony of the holy woman On the day after the Sabbath, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Jesus went to the tomb planning to prepare Jesus body for a proper burial On arrival, they found the stone covering the tomb had been rolled away The tomb was also empty Two men in dazzling clothes confirmed that Jesus had risen as he had prophesied. The two men were angles When the women learnt of Jesus resurrection, they broke the news to the apostils and all the others. The apostles rejected the womens testimony The testimony of disciples on their way to Emmaus Jesus appeared to the disciples who were on their way to Emmaus They were discussing Jesus suffering, death and the empty tomb They regarded Jesus death as a tragedy, for they had hoped he would liberate the Jews from the Roman rule Jesus explained to the scriptures, which say the messiah would suffer to reach his glory.
They invited Jesus to dine with them Jesus shared the Holy Eucharist with them before they recognized whom he was at the breaking of the bread The disciples at Emmaus thus became the second witnesses to the risen Christ. The effect of this testimony is that the disciples went and told the eleven apostles about their encounter with the risen Christ Qn r. the appearance of Jesus to the disciples As the disciples narrated their encounter with Jesus to the eleven apostles, Jesus appeared to them Jesus asked them to confirm that he had risen by touching his body He explained to the apostles his mission through telling them the prophesies about him in the law of Moses, prophets and psalms Jesus brought his disciples to be witnesses by proclaiming repentance and forgiveness of sins He tested some cooked fish He promised that he was going to be with them through the power of the Holy Spirit THE ASCENSION OF JESUS Qn s. Describe the ascension of Jesus From Jerusalem Jesus led his disciples to Bethany He raised his hands blessed the disciples and lifted to heaven The disciples returned and witnessed Jesus ascension with joy They continued to go to the temple to pray to God waiting for the holy spirit that Jesus had promised them
From this incidence where Jesus blessed the disciples, we learn that the disciples became confident about their mission. This earlier disbelief and blindness to who Jesus was now overcome Qn t. Give five evidences from the bible that show that Jesus Christ rose from the dead The tomb was empty Assurance of the angle to the women that Jesus had risen Thomas witnessed the resurrection by feeling the scars on Jesus hands The women who had gone to the tomb had found it empty The disciples witnessed his resurrection when he appeared to the two disciples at Emmaus Jesus shared a meal with his disciples after his resurrection in Jerusalem Jesus walked with the disciples up to Bethany prior to his ascension Qn t. explain the significance of passion, death and the resurrection of Jesus to Christian life The passion deed and resurrection refers to seven incidences namely, Jesus last supper, suffering in the garden, suffering before Sanhedrin, Pilate and Herod; mocking by the soldiers, death on the cross, resurrection and ascension Those events are of great significance to the modern Christians. First they proof that Jesus was indeed the son of God and the Messiah The passion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ was a fulfillment of the old testament prophesies and Psalms The resurrection resulted in the rapid spread of the church. The spread of the church is as a result of the risen Christ and the influence of the Holy Spirit
The resurrection is thus the basis/ the central idea or foundation in the Christian faith and missionary activity; if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is useless and you believing it is useless The passion, death and resurrection reveal the power of God to those who believe in him. They also prove that Jesus who was Gods triumphant envoy is alive and Christians are assured living again after the physical death The raising of Jesus from the dead proved that Jesus was not only man but lord over human life so that Christians share in his life on earth by believing in him and living according to the fruits of the holy spirit The resurrection of Jesus is a source of inspiration and confidence in Christians. It also points to the fact that Jesus was a man of his word i.e. he fore told the resurrection and it came to pass. His resurrection was a real fact because he showed his disciples the crucifixion marks All that happened during the passion, death and resurrection of Christ was just a completion of Gods revelation through Christ They also point to the power and glory of God in which those who believe share in the hope of their own resurrection in the second coming of Jesus Qn v. the significance of Jesus resurrection to Christians today It is the foundation of the Christian faith and hope which their belief would be useless Christian faith would be in vain (futile) if Jesus had not resurrected
Through resurrection Christians have confidence and hope in God because the one they believe in has been exalted and sits at the right hand of God almighty Through the resurrection, Christians are given hope of eternal life The resurrection of Jesus led to the coming of the holy spirit which helps Christians to live according to the teachings of Christ, preach the gospel and speak boldly against the evils in the society The resurrection give meaning to baptism in that one dies in sin and is raised with Christ to new life The resurrection confirms the divinity of Jesus as the true son of God The resurrection gives Christians courage to face death because they have hope of resurrecting at his second return It is remembered by Christians during the Eucharist Qn w. explain five importance of Eulogy of death in the society today It enables mourners to know the cause or nature of death It enables the mourners to forgive the dead person incase of any grudge between them and the dead person It enables the mourners to ask for forgiveness from the dead person It enables the mourners know the wish or last words of the deceased before he/ she died Mourners have an opportunity to declare what they owe or are owed by the dead It enables mourners to know the contribution of work of the dead to the society It provides the mourners with an opportunity to know the nature or character of the dead and his/her social life It enables mourners to know the background or life history of the deceased e.g. education.

LESSON ONE: TEACHINGS OF JESUS ON THE ROLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Read JOHN 14:15-26, 16: 5-15, and ACTS 1: 7- 8 Introduction The Holy Spirit is the third person in the trinity. There is the power of Christ, the power of God, and the Holy Spirit who gives gifts such as prophecy and healing. The Holy Spirit is mentioned several times in the Bible; (1) during creation in Genesis, (2) at the annunciation of the birth of Jesus, (3) at the beginning of the ministry of Jesus, (4) during baptism, (5) revelation of Jesus in the temple (6) Jesus spoke of the Holy Spirit during his mission or ministry, after resurrection and before ascension Learning outcomes.

Analyse the Manifestation of the Holy Spirit in the church and Christians today
d. Give the role of love in church and in Christian lives today a. The role of Holy Spirit in Church and in Christian lives today. Read JOHN 14:15-26 and JOHN 16: 5-15, ACTS 1: 7- 8 The Holy Spirit has many roles in the church and in Christian lives today. These roles are to:
Teach Christians on a daily basis messages of Jesus Live in the hearts of believers of Christ Be an advocate, a counselor, helper and a comforter to those who love
Jesus Christ and obey Gods commandments.
He would remind the disciples the words said by Jesus Christ and

prosecution on the account of following Jesus.
Enable the disciples to expose the secret lives and heart of sinful people. Guide Christians; help believers to cast away evils spirits, to heal, to preach the word of God, to encourage, and to condemn evil in the society. b. Paul teaching about the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. Read 1 Corinthians chapters 12, 13, and 14. Spiritual gifts are extra-ordinary favors, talents, abilities, and dispositions given to Christians by God for the benefit of all believers. The gifts are used for the service of others and not for self-glorification and gratification. The message of Peter on the day of the Pentecost Peter told the disciple that what was happening was the fulfillment of Jesus prophecy. - He said that Jesus of Nazareth was the Son of God. - He said that the suffering and death of Jesus was according to Gods plans. Death was the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecy. Gifts of the Holy Spirit 1. Gift of wisdom: having deep understanding of issues- seeing far, being perceptive. 2. Gift of knowledge: ability to understand the basic facts about Jesus, His mission and knowledge about spiritual issues. 3. The gift of faith: refers to the confidence in Gods help. It is deep trust in God. 4. The Gift of healing: ability, and power to heal all forms of sickness by calling upon the name of Jesus Christ. 5. The gift of performing miracles: gift of healing miracles, creative miracles for example, dead legs becoming alive. 6. The gift of preaching 7. The gift of prophecy: the ability to interpret Gods word. The ability to foresee what will happen in the future as revealed by God. 8. The gift of distinguishing spirits or discernment: the ability to know whether a spiritual gift is from God, the Holy Spirit or from the evil spirit 9. The gift of speaking in tongues. The ability to utter, speak in a tongue, language unknown to the believer. Tongues are used when addressing God for self-edifications. It is personal growth. 10. The gift of interpretation of tongues: the ability to understand and interpret the messages of those speaking in tongues. 11. The gift of love. (Read 1 Corinthians 13) Paul stressed that all the gifts of the Holy Spirit are to be demonstrated with love. He stressed that love, a fruit of the Holy Spirit is supreme over other spiritual gifts possessed by Christians. Its the greatest of all. Speaking in tongues, preaching, and martyrdom without love is useless. Components of Love Love is patient, kind, not jealous or boastful, not arrogant or rude, is not ill mannered or selfish, and does not insist on its own way. It is not disrespectful. It is not irritable or resentful. It does not rejoice at wrong but rejoices in truth. It bears all things. Love believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. Love is eternal. Love never fails. The other gifts are temporary but love, faith and hope are eternal. c. Manifestation of the Holy Spirit in the church and Christians today Gifts of the Holy Spirit have been manifested in churches today. We see this manifestation through people possessing the gifts of the Holy Spirit. For example, leaders in church have displayed the gift of wisdom. Preachers, and Christians ministers have been casting out demons and performing healing. There are reported cases of interpretation of tongues and gift of prophecy in churches today. When Christians display the gifts of the Holy Spirit such as speaking in tongues the Holy Spirit is manifested. Other manifestations of the Holy Spirit are:
Through healing, prophecy, gifts of discernment, boldness in preaching,
and casting out demons among others
Christians helping the poor by giving generosity and in kindness. Through singing, dancing, shouting (fruit of joy) Through unity of believes and fellowships. Through praying, Christians persecutions/temptations.
d. Criteria for Discerning the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. Christians who have the Holy Spirit and are guided by Jesus have certain characteristics. These are:
They will confess that Jesus is Lord They cannot say a curse. They speak the truth. They worship God and behave in accordance with
Jesus teaching.
They led by the Holy Spirit and are known by the fruits of the Holy
Spirit. These fruits are love, joy, peace, and patience.
Such persons serve all Christians without discrimination and strife. They do not do sinful acts such as sexual immorality. They do not e. The fruits of the HOLY SPIRIT (GALATIANS 5:16-26) Paul taught that the fruit of the spirit are: Love, Joy, Patience, Long suffering, Goodness or Generosity, Faith and faithfulness, Peace, Meekness and kindness, gentleness, self- control and temperance.

To reveal the myth and mysteries of God. He would affirm the right of Jesus as the Son of God. He would reveal the glory of Jesus death. He would enable the disciples to discern and expose the secret heart of sinful men.
2. The gift of the Holy Spirit has been misused today by pride and public manifestation of the gift as a way of show off. Some Christians have misused the gift of Holy Sprit of prophecy by prophesying for money. LESSON TWO. PETERS MESSAGE ON THE DAY OF PENTECOST. Read ACTS 2: 14-41 Introduction Jews commemorate Pentecost day. This is the day that God gave Moses his laws on mount Sinai. It is also referred to as the festival of weeks. Pentecost day was celebrated 50 days after the Passover. It was compulsory for all Jews. On this day, Jews brought offering, the first fruits of harvest, to the temple in Jerusalem. Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson You should be able: - 1. Describe Pentecost day 2. Narrate Peters Message. 3. Explain the relevance of the Pentecostal Experience a. Pentecost a day On the Pentecostal day, the disciples were gathered in Jerusalem awaiting the promise of the Holy Spirit. And as promised, the Holy Spirit came in the form of a strong wind, and tongues of fire. The Holy Spirit rested on the head of each disciple. The disciples received the gift of the Holy Spirit. They spoke in new tongues. Some of the observers mistook this experience. They thought that the disciples were drunk with wine. Peter stood up to explain what was happening and defend the disciples. He told those who saw the experience that the disciples were not drunk. It was in the morning. b. Peters Message. Read Joel 2: 28 32 Peter told the onlookers that; what was happening is fulfillment of Joels prophesies about the outpouring of Gods spirit. He said that Jesus of Nazareth was the Son of God. This was proved by the miracles that Jesus performed. He emphasized that the suffering and death of Jesus was according to Gods plans. Jesus is a descendant of David. Death and the resurrection of Jesus fulfilled prophesies in the Old Testament. God raised Jesus from the dead. He taught that Jesus had both the nature of God and Man. The apostles are the living witnesses of the resurrection of Jesus. Jesus has been exalted and sits on the right hand of God where He is Lord and Judge. They holy Spirit is a gift from Jesus Peter then invited the listeners to repentance so that they could be forgiven and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Three thousand souls accepted salvation message and were added to the fellowship of the disciples. c. After the Holy Spirit infilling. The disciples sold their possessions and goods and assisted the needy. They did many wonders and signs. They continued to live in unity, worshiping God, fellowshipping together, and breaking the bread. d. Lessons Christians learn from Leadership of Peter. Christians should be: 1. Courageous and stand up for Jesus Christ all the times. 2. Ready to spread the Gospel of Christ. 3. Win new converts to Jesus by inviting them to repentance. 4. Have faith in the risen Christ. 5. Pray to be filled with the Holy Spirit like Peter and those in church leadership should take their roles seriously. e. Relevance of the Pentecostal Experience Speaking in diverse tongues signified that Christianity is a universal religion. It pointed out the importance of all languages when communicating to God. There were no specific languages for speaking with God, as it was when Latin was the language of literacy and Christianity. Christians should be bold in their preaching. They should not be afraid as they have the counsel and helper, the Holy Spirit. Christians should understand that God chooses anyone as a leader, preacher, and witness of Christ. Pentecostal experience signifies that Christians need to receive and be filled with the Holy Spirit Revision questions a) Explain the meaning of the Pentecost b) Describe the manifestations of the holy spirit on the day of the Pentecost (Acts 2: 1-40)(or narrate the events that took place on the day of the Pentecost) c) Write down five teachings about Jesus from Peters speech on the day of the Pentecost d) What were the qualities of peter that made him a successful leader of the apostolic church? e) What lessons can Christians learn from the events of the day of the Pentecost? f) State the teachings of Jesus on the holy spirit (John 14:14-26) (acts 1:7- 8) g) What is the role of the holy spirit according to Jesus? h) What is the role of the holy spirit in the believers or the church or Christians? i) Outline the fruits of the holy spirit j) State the criteria for discerning the spiritual gifts k) List down the gifts of the holy spirit l) Explain why Paul taught that love is the greatest of all spiritual gifts m) Explain how the Holy spirit is manifested in the church today n) State ways in which the gifts of the holy spirit are being abused in the church today TOPIC TWO: THE UNITY OF BELIEVERS Learning outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: a) Explain teaching in selected New Testament texts of the unity of believers. b) Identify the metaphors used to describe unity of believers. c) Identify the causes of disunity in the early and modern church LESSON ONE: TEACHINGS OF THE UNITY OF BELIEVERS IN SELECTED NEW TESTAMENT TEXTS Unity of believers refers to oneness of those who have faith in Jesus Christ. Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson you should be able to: - i. Describe activities of early Christians ii. Describe characteristics of the people of God iii. Explain the meanings of these symbolic expressions - The body of Christ - The Vine and the Branches - The Church / Assembly of God - The Bride a. Early Christians The early Christians in Jerusalem demonstrated their unity by.
Holding joint prayer sessions Sharing the Lords supper, that is Eucharist. Sharing their possessions with the poor. The showed oneness and unity as believers. They expressed their oneness using various terms, images, metaphors and symbols. They regarded themselves as the people of God, the church and an Assembly of God. When they celebrated the last supper, eating of bread was a symbol of the body of Christ. They saw themselves as belonging to one tree with the vine and branches. As followers of Christ, the early Church saw itself as the Bride of Christ. b. Discussion of Symbolic Expressions i. The people of God Read 1 PETER 2: 9-10. Peter has outlined the characteristics of the people of God. He says that the people of God are Believers in God: through faith in Jesus Christ. The Chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation a chosen people Those who stand out from the rest because they live a holy and righteous life. Form a Holy nation chosen to proclaim the works of God. Not just the descendants of Abraham but people who follow Jesus Christ and His teachings. ii. The body of Christ Read 1 Corinthians 12:12-27, and Ephesians 4:1-12. The Holy Spirit is the one who brings Christians together as one body of Christ to serve the church. Christians are given gifts for the purpose of sharing the body of Christ. Jesus Christ is the head of the church. And just as the body has many parts, playing different roles, so has the Church. Every member of the church plays a vital role because different members have different spiritual gifts and callings. Some are Apostles, Teachers, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Miracle performers, Administrators and those who show mercy to others and encourage (exhort) others. All church activities should be directed to the welfare of the church, just as the function of each part of the body is necessary for the well being of the whole body. To have a united body, members should be meek, and patient in order to bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit. For a church to be united, or to be considered as one body, Christians should have faith in God the father, one Lord Jesus Christ, one Holy Spirit and have faith in God through Jesus Christ. iii. The Vine and the Branches Read John 15:1-10 The vine represents Jesus. Vine tree was a tree that bore grapes. The vine tree was a symbol of prosperity and peace. Jesus is the vine and the Father is the vinedresser. Christians/ believers are the branches. They are expected to produce good fruits by remaining faithful and united in Christ. Faithful branches bear fruit like good Christians while unfruitful branches are like unfruitful Christians. Christians should remain united to Christ who is the vine so as to bear fruits. The teachings of Jesus purify the Christians. The dead branches of the Vine trees are cut off and the livings ones are trimmed or pruned. This is done so that the vines may produce high yields. Likewise unfaithful Christians, believers are rebuked and corrected so as to bear high yields. iv. The Church or Assembly of God. Read Ephesians 5: 21 32 Church is a Greek word ekklesia, which means people. People who belong to the Lord. Assembly of God is the coming together of people of diverse social and cultural backgrounds who recognize lordship of Jesus. The church is likened to the relationship between a husband and a wife. Christians (the church) are expected to be united with Christ just as a husband and wife are united in marriage. Just as husbands and wives are expected to love one another, so too, are Christians called upon to express love to one another and to love God. A husband is the head of a family; Jesus is also the head of the church. v. The Bride. Read 2 Corinthian 11: 2, and Revelations 21: 1 12 In the Old Testament, God calls Israel a bride. In the New Testament, Christians are referred to as a bride in the New Jerusalem. God or Jesus Christ is the bridegroom. Christians are reminded that the life on earth is a temporary home. Their real home is in heaven, the Holy city of God. Just as a bride is expected to be faithful to her husband, so are Christians expected to be faithful to God by observing the covenant way of life. Deviation from the covenant was portrayed as adultery. John, who wrote the book of revelations, sees a vision of a new heaven and a new earth in which faithful Christians will be rewarded. Christ will come to take His bride to eternity to live there forever. The relationship between Christians and Jesus/ God is like a marriage. It is a covenant. It is a relationship where the church (bride) is expected to submit to God. Jesus died for the church, a show of His or Gods love. Likewise Christians should be committed in their relationship to God. SAQ. 1. Discuss in twos who is a bride and what takes place in a wedding. 2. Discuss the significance of the symbols used to express the unity of the believers. These are The people of God, The body of Christ, The vine and the branches The church or assembly of God and The bride. LESSON TWO: CAUSES OF DISUNITY IN THE EARLY CHURCH The early church experienced some challenges, which led to divisions among the early disciples and Christians. Learning Outcomes. After reading this lesson, i Identify causes of disunity in the early church ii State causes of disunity in the modern church iii Compare the causes of disunity in the early and modern church iv Suggest possible solutions to disunity in modern church a. Causes of Disunity in the Early Church After Jesus ascended to his Father and left the Holy Spirit to look after his followers, the disciples established congregations or communities to spread the Word of God. As believers of Christ met and prayed together, there were disagreements and divisions brought about by several factors and issues. These were: Disputes, among early Christians; concerning leadership of the Church. Christians wanted different leaders: Paul, Apollos, Cephas or Christ. Paul told them that Christ couldnt be divided (1 Corinthians 1:10 -21). Sexual immorality was another cause of disunity in the early church. Some Christians were doing or having irresponsible sexual behaviours. These were incest, fornication, and prostitution. Paul condemned such behaviours and told Christians to stop sinning and honor God with their bodies. The body of a Christian is the temple of the Holy Ghost (1 Corinthian 5: 1-13, 6:12 20). Christians settling disputes in civil courts. Paul advised they ought to talk over issues among themselves and agree to solve problems on their own (1 Corinthians 6). Dispute over marriage and divorce. Some Christians were opposed to marriage. Others were encouraging divorce. Paul addressed these issues in 1 Corinthian, chapter 71-16. Paul advised Christians that it was okay to marry or not to marry. But marriage was needed to stop immorality. Eating of meat offered to idols. Some Christians were eating meat offered to idols while others were against it. Paul advised Christians not to eat anything that will cause their faith to weaken or fail. (1 Corinthians 8 and10: 14 20. There were disputes about dressing during worship. Should women cover their head during worship? Should women shave hair? Should men wear long hair? (1 Corinthian 11:1-16). Some Christians were overeating and over drinking during the Holy Communion misuse of the Lords Supper, (1 Corinthians 11:17 33). Misuses of spiritual gift especially the gift of speaking in tongues. Paul taught that all gifts are equal (1 Corinthians 12). There was a misunderstanding about the resurrection of the body and the dead. Some were saying there is no resurrection. Paul preached that if there is no resurrection then their preaching was in vain as they were witnesses to the resurrection of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15). b. Causes of disunity among believers and church in Kenya today Leadership differences. Some Christians are struggling for power. This has led to formation of splinter groups, divisions and enmity between these groups. Cultural differences. Christians are divided by their African cultural beliefs from their backgrounds. This culture is merged with Christianity and Western cultural practices forming a unique mixture of beliefs. Some Christians are permissive, while others are conservative. This has led to disunity, for example in the areas of dressing. Discrimination. There is inequality within the church between the rich and the poor, the whites and blacks. Some Christians are viewed as more spiritual than others, on basis of the tribe, gender, wealth and social status among others. Misuse of freedom of worship. Christians are starting sprinter churches, probably because they want to control church finances without supervision by the wider church. To justify their departure, they spread propaganda against the mother church, and other churches in order to attract followers. The more followers a church has the more tithe it collects. Misuse of church funds. Some church leaders and followers misuse church funds Differences in the practice of baptism Arrogance and pride by some Christians. Sins: sexual immorality in the church, divorce and marriage issues. Some Christian denominations reject the human nature of the person of Jesus Christ; that Christ had both a human and divine nature e.g. Nomiya church. SAQ. Can you think of factors that led to disunity among Christians in the early church that you have noted in the Kenyan church? c. Reasons why Christians should work in Unity. Christians face many problems and they therefore need to work together in unity to: Promote oneness of Christians in Jesus Christ. Promote the teachings of Jesus Christ. Achieve effective evangelism or ministry. Adopt a common attitude to the integration of African culture in worship. Prevent the formation of sprinter groups and cults. Reduce the internal wrangling. Have a common stand in dealing with issues affecting the society. d. Possible Solutions to disunity The church should settle issues that divide its members by Christians: Learning to appreciate and respect the practices and belief of other Christians denominations. Having or forming a common goal Striving to be guided by the principle of love in solving problems facing them. Observing the teachings of disciples, prophets, apostles, God, laws of Moses, Jesus and the Bible. Avoiding doing anything to their fellow Christians that would cause suffering and disharmony. Activities that the early church did in order to remain united were that they: Ate bread together. Held fellowships together. Shared with the needy. Prayed together for each other In the current worldwide Church, there is disunity amongst believers or Christians. The most common ones are due. Leadership differences and wrangles for power. Cultural differences amongst Christians. Some Christians are permissive while others are conservative. Differences in the interpretation of the Bible. Misuse of church funds Pride and arrogance. Revision questions a. Write down terms used in the new testament to refer to believers in Christ b. Identify five causes of disunity in the church today c. Identify factors which cause disunity among the Christians today d. Discuss reasons why members of Christian families in Kenya find it difficult to harmoniously live together e. Explain how the church strengthens family relationships today TOPIC THREE. TEACHINGS FROM SELECTED OLD TESTAMENT PROPHETS INTRODUCTION This chapter introduces one to the work of prophets in the Old Testament. In Form One, some prophets were taught e.g. Moses, Elijah, Nathan and Samuel. Traditional African prophets were also taught. In Form Three, we compare true and false prophets and the Traditional African prophets. Learning outcomes. By the end of the topic, you should be able to: a. Define a prophet, and prophecy b. Identify categories of prophets c. Explain the importance of prophets in Israel. d. Describe the characteristics of prophets. e. Explain how prophetic messages were written. f. Compare the relationship between prophesies in the Old Testament and the New Testament LESSON ONE: PROPHETS Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: - 1. Give a correct definition of a prophet, and prophecy 2. List prophets in categories a. Definitions of a prophet, and prophecy The word prophet comes from a Hebrew word Rabii meaning one who is called or one who announces Gods message. A prophet is also referred to as a seer. A prophet is a person sent by God to teach and give people messages about things to come in future from God. Prophets received divine messages from God and communicated them to the people. A prophet is therefore a person who foretells events as revealed to him or her by God. Examples of prophets include Samuel, Elijah, Jeremiah and prophetesses (female prophet) Deborah, and Huidah. Prophecy is a statement, a message of something that is going to happen in the future. The action of giving future messages is called prophecy. b. Categories of prophets There were many categories of prophets. These were: a) Major Prophets. These were Prophets whose messages covered a long period of time. Their messages were long and detailed. For example Prophet Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel. b) Minor prophets. There are 12 books of the Minor Prophets examples They are called minor because their messages are short, brief and do not contain detailed information. The Minor Prophets are Amos, and Hosea, Joel, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi. c) Canonical prophets the term canon means law. Canonical prophets are law prophets. The individual utterances of these prophets are laws. Both minor and major prophets are canonical prophets, d) The early prophets are Moses, Nathan Elijah, and Elisha. These prophets belonged to guilds schools. Their prophecies are not recorded under their names. Their prophecies are written in books, which do not bear their names. e) Cultic prophets like Hannah (N.T.) served in the places of worship. They assisted the priest officiating worship f) Professional / court prophets like Samuel, Micah, and Gad lived together in the temple and in groups. They earned their living through their work. They did not work elsewhere g) False prophets are pretenders to speak in the name of Yahweh but God did not call them. They spoke lies in accordance with the messages people wanted to hear. c. Characteristics of true prophets There were two (2) major categories of prophets in the Old Testament, (1) true prophets and (2) false prophets. True prophets are those whose prophecies occurred and were fulfilled. Prophesies of false prophets did not occur. True prophets distinguished themselves from false prophets and ordinary people. They experienced God dramatically when He called them and in their ministry. They were Gods spokesmen and women. They responded in faith to their call. God gave them specific tasks in their commission and Gods assurance and support in their ministry. They urged people to repent and turn back to God. In their messages, they taught that God demands sincere worship and not elaborate rituals. They understood God and taught about God righteousness, goodness, mercifulness, and loving care. They condemned evil in the society and proclaimed Gods judgment and punishment to those who failed to keep the covenant. They spoke with authority and acted with courage. They upheld God as a universal God for all nations. They talked of a remnant that shall remain after punishment or those that have continued to worship God sincerely. Their utterances were true because they were fulfilled They spent a lot of their time in prayers. They prayed regularly. At such times they withdrew from people in order to have a quiet time to seek God. All the true prophets received opposition from their audiences and they were ready to suffer for telling Gods word. d. The Characteristics of false prophets. Some of the prophecy of false prophets contradicted prophesies of the true prophets. False prophets followed their own imaginations, and gave false hopes. They told people what they wanted to hear. They had no personal knowledge of God. Hence, their prophecies were not in line with the divine revelations. They used evil forces such as magic, and divinations to call upon the spirits of the dead. They were paid for prophesy and benefits materially from their clients. They served Baal and were mainly immoral. They committed crime. Review questions How can we know true and false prophets today? LESSON TWO: IMPORTANCE OF PROPHETS IN ISRAEL Introduction Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should: 1. Describe the work of prophets in Israel 2. Explain how God communicated with prophets and Israelites 3. Analyse the content of the Prophetic messages 1. Work of prophets in Israel Prophets kept Israelites in communication with God. They communicated Gods will to the people of Israel. They foretold Gods judgments and punishment for sinners. They condemned the behaviour of the rich towards the poor. Through their messages, people reformed their lives since they condemned all forms of social evils and ritual sins. They contributed to the writing of their messages leading to the compilation of the Bible. Prophets guided and gave people hope. They taught people the laws of God. They warned people of dangers to come. They condemned idolatry and stressed the worship of one true God, Yahweh. They anointed the Kings in Israel. Kings consulted the prophets before any major undertaking such as war among others. They acted as conscience of kings. They advised them and challenged Kings when they went wrong. 2. Gods communication with prophets and Israelites God communicated to Prophets through visions, voices that were audible and clear, events, prayers, dreams, signs, ordinary things, and words which came to their minds with great power. Writing messages of the prophets The canonical prophets as mentioned earlier had their works and prophecies recorded under their names. Canonical prophets are referred to as writing prophets. Its possible that some prophets wrote down their own prophecies. They wrote what God spoke to them as He dictated. An example is Jeremiah who wrote what he was told Get a scroll and write on it everything that I have told you about Israel, Judah and all nations. (Jeremiah 36:2, Isaiah 30:8). Two, the prophets message were probably written by other people. These were their assistant, secretary, scribe, and disciples or followers as the prophet prophesied. Thirdly some of the prophetic messages could have been preserved as oral traditions and later written as books. A good example is 2 Kings. e. Content of the Prophetic messages Prophetic messages contained lessons from God to Israel. For example, the: i. Prophetic sayings were and still are oracles or poetic passages spoken by God himself through prophets. The prophecies were addressed to different nations. They carried specific teachings to the people, for example predicting future occurrences ii. Narratives in the first person give an account of the prophets testimony. They spoke of their experiences with God, and responses to the call of God. They tell us about prophets impelling compulsion to speak Gods word. The narratives are written in the first person. They have a format The Lord said to me The year that King Uzziah died, I was the Lord iii. Narratives in the third 3rd person have messages written by a third party, i.e. not the prophet but another person. For example, Isaiah said to them, Thus you shall say to your master, thus says the Lord: Do not be afraid of the words. (Isaiah 37:6). The message recounts the prophets personal life, and political background. LESSON THREE: PROPHESIES IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, NEW TESTAMENT AND AFRICAN TRADITIONAL SOCIETY Introduction The Israelites and the African traditional societies as well as other world communities had prophets who foretold the future. Among the Israelites, there were prophets chosen by God and false prophets who told messages which communities wanted to hear. Among the African traditional communities, there were wise men and women who prophesied about the future. In this lesson, we shall compare these prophecies and learn what was similar and different about these them. The Old Testament prophecies are compared with those from the African traditional society and the New Testament Learning outcomes. After studying this lesson, you should be able to: a. State relationships between Prophesies in the Old Testament New Testament and the African Traditional Society b. Discuss the similarities between prophets in the African traditional society and the Old Testament c. Identify differences between prophets in the African traditional society and the Old Testament a. Relationships between Prophesies Several Old Testament (O.T.) prophecies were and are fulfilled in both the old and New Testament (N.T) in the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. The Law of Moses is used in both the Old Testament and the New Testament. However Jesus gave the law a deeper meaning. The teachings and prophecies of the prophets provided the foundation for the message in the New Testament. The prophecies of Prophet Nathan to King David that God would raise up an offspring from the lineage of David was fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the expected messiah. Jesus disciples in the New Testament referred a lot to messages in the Old Testament. The teachings of Jesus in the New Testament are based in the Old Testament prophecies. They are therefore similar to each other because New Testament is a continuation of the Old Testament. The New Testament is the new covenant spoken of by Prophet Jeremiah and other Prophets like Isaiah, Micah, and Nathan. Their prophecies about Messiah are fulfilled in the New Testament. b. Similarities between prophets in the African traditional society and the Old Testament. In both traditions, prophets:
Were endowed with divine powers and they dealt with religious matters. Acted as intermediaries between God and people Warned people of impending dangers and disasters due to disobedience Had supernatural experiences Encouraged morality and discouraged evil ways In some cases, could heal Withstood oppression and opposition by the political rulers Encouraged people to fight injustices in society Foretold future disasters such as drought and wars. They explained why
they were going to occur.
Were consulted when things were not well in the society. Received revelations through dreams, visions and thoughts Were gender sensitive male prophets and female prophetesses.
c. Differences (O.T.) between prophets in the African traditional society and the Old Testament. The Old Testament prophets had a personal relationship with God. They communicated Gods messages to Israelites. The prophets in the African traditional society communicated and received messages from the ancestor spirits Old Testament prophets were Gods mouthpieces. They began their prophesy with thus saith the lord. While the prophets in the African traditional society predicted what would happen to individuals, and communities. The authority of prophets in the Old Testament came from God while the authority of prophets in the African traditional society came from their ancestors spirits. In the Old Testament prophets were called directly by God while in some African traditional communities the prophetic office was hereditary. The African traditional prophets dealt with family and local community issues while Old Testament prophets dealt with national issues, and crises. African traditional prophets were diviners while Old Testament prophets consulted God. d. Relevance of Old Testament prophets to Christians today Christian should be ready to be messengers of God. The call to be a Christian has a prophetic role. Some Christians are called to the office of a prophet and should prophecy for the glory of God and for the common good of the people. As Gods spokes person one should always stand for the truth. Christian should proclaim Gods will even if the message is not pleasant to the people. Once appointed as a prophet, one should pass the messages to who ever they are sent to without fear or favour. Gods messengers should always condemn the social political economic evils in the society. As Gods messengers Christians should live exemplary lives. They should stand for what they preach and should expect persecutions because of their works as Gods messengers. They should be ready to suffer for the sake of the gospel. Christians should pray to God to give them guidance, wisdom, and inspiration to be able to handle hardships in their lives. They should provide hope for the people in times of suffering. Christians should realize that God calls both men and women to His service. They should be ready to obey Gods prophetic call and not run away e.g. Jonah. They should be concerned and take care of the welfare of the poor community members. Revision questions 1. Define the terms prophet and prophecy 2. List five categories of true prophets 3. State the difference between true and false prophets 4. In what ways were Gods prophets called? 5. Outline the similarities and differences between the old testament prophets and the traditional African ones. 6. What is the relevance of prophets to Christians today? TOPIC FOUR: PROPHET AMOS Introduction Amos is one of the prophets God sent to Israel to warn the people because of their evil life. Politically, the Nation of Israel had become rich. There grew classer, the rich and the poor. The rich started oppressing the poor. Socially, there was still the rich poor gap. The rich exploited the poor. Merchants sold bad food, expensive and used false measurer. Religiously, the Israelites had turned away from God and were worshiping false gods. Syncretism was practiced. Priests were paid and Gods prophets were rejected. It is in this situation that Amos was called. He is called through visions. Amos is one of the canonical or writing prophets. The book of Amos is a temptation of oracles spoken by the prophet on different occasions. Note that after the death of King Solomon, the kingdom of Israel was split into two and rules by Rehoboam and Jeroboam. The northern Kingdom; called Judah was ruled by Rehoboam and was inhabited by two tribes. The southern kingdom called Israel was ruled by Jeroboam and was inhabited by 10 tribes. Amos came from Judah and prophesied in Israel. Topic Learning Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: a) Analyse Prophet Amos work in Israel b) Describe the call of Amos c) Explain the teaching of Amos d) Relate relevance of Amos teaching to Christianity today LESSON ONE: Prophet Amos work in Israel Read Amos 1:1 Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should: 1. Describe the call of Amos 2. Describe the socio, political and economic situation in Israel during the time of Prophet Amos 3. Explain religious situation in Israel 1. The call of Amos (AMOS 1:1,3:8,7:10 15) Prophet Amos was born in a village called Tekoa in Judah, the southern kingdom. Before his call, Amos was a shepherd and a dresser of sycamore trees. He was not a professional prophet. But God called him to be a prophet. He received his call in form of a vision around 758 BC. Amos responded to Gods call with obedience. He felt a deep compulsion to prophesy (Amos 3:8). God directed him to give his message to the people of Israel, the northern kingdom (Amos 7:15). He was asked to speak the will of Yahweh. He was also to fore tell punishment if Israelites did not repent their sins. His message was opposed, and challenged by Amaziah the priest of Bethel. 3. Religion. Israelites worshipped Yahweh and other gods. Idolatry was also present. This form of worship is called Syncretism . There was religious hypocrisy. Like today, there was an emphasis on external observances of religious practices and less concern for internal observances. The priests were paid for religious work. Those who couldnt pay did not have religious ceremonies. They were offered at the expense of the poor. The prophets of God were rejected. 4. Social economic political situation. When Amos prophesied, King Jeroboam ruled Israel, the northern kingdom while King Uzziah ruled Judah. Amos was sent to prophesy to the people of Israel in the northern kingdom. He concentrated his work mainly in Bethel and Samaria the capital city of Israel and the main centres of worship. When Amos started his prophesy, there was peace and prosper in Israel and Judah. Both kingdoms were wealthy. However, the wealth did not reach the poor. This was because the wealth and power were in the hands of the king, his family, his officials, and wealthy merchants. As a result, Israel citizens were divided into two classes; the rich and the poor. Unfortunately, the rich people owned big luxurious houses. They drunk wine, and used the most expensive perfumes. They acquired their wealth at the expense of the poor. They oppressed and exploited the poor. The merchants of trade for example, were dishonest in their trade businesses. They sold bad wheat to unsuspecting customers and overcharged customers by measuring with false scales. Because of the inflated prices, the poor borrowed money from the rich at high interest rates to buy basic things like food. Hence, there was massive bribery and corruption in society and law courts. As a result the poor lacked basic necessities or needs like food, shelter, and clothing. It was at this time when God sent Amos to give prophesy to Israel. SAQ. How did the rich oppress the poor in Israel? LESSON TWO: VISIONS OF AMOS Read AMOS 7: 1 9, 8:1 3. 9:1 4) Vision is a picture we have in our mind. It is a future to come. Amos was shown many visions by God. Lesson outcomes. After reading these verses in Amos you should be able to: - 1. Analyse all the visions and 2. State the message of each vision 3. Summaries things that God condemned through Amos 1. The vision of the locusts (Amos 7:1 3 ) Amos saw a swarm of locusts being sent by God to destroy all plants and food crops in the land. The locusts were, a sign of disaster, which God was going to send to Israel as a punishment for their disobedience. Amos cried to God to forgive the people. God heard and changed his mind. 2. The vision of a great fire (Amos 7:4 6) Amos saw a vision of a supernatural fire that burnt up the land. He asked God to forgive the people and God listened. The punishment was stopped. 3. The vision of a crooked wall/ the plumb line (Amos 7:7 9) Amos saw the Lord standing beside the wall checked it with a plumb line. The wall represented the Israelites. They stopped observing the laws of their covenant with God. God found Israelites disobeying the covenant. God promised to destroy holy places of Israel.. 4. The vision of a basket of ripe fruits (Amos 8:1 3) In this vision, Amos saw a basket of ripe fruits. Fruits are harvested at the end of the summer. This meant that Israel was ripe for punishment for her refusal to turn to God. Amos did not pray for forgiveness. God would no longer withhold His judgment. Time for repentance was over. 5. The vision of the destruction of the altar. Read Amos 9:1 4. Amos saw the Lord standing by the altar. The Lord ordered the destruction of the temple. The shrines of Dan and Bethel were destroyed because they were the centres of idolatry. No one would escape punishment no matter where they hide. Summary of issues that God pointed out to Israel through Prophet Amos a. Lack of social justice There was lack of social justice and responsibility by the king of Israel. Social justice means dealing with other people fairly. It implies showing concern for the needs of others. b. Lack of responsibility. This refers to the rulers and people of Israel being accountable for their actions. In modern life, it is doing ones duty and fulfilling ones obligation to God and others. c. Practice of hypocritical religion in Israel. The Israelites were insincere in their worship. They made empty sacrifices. They worshipped idols as well as God. They profaned the name of God (Yahweh). They made idols of Baal and offered sacrifices to them. They worshipped other gods. This is syncretism and God does not allow worship of any other God but himself. d. Gods judgment against Israel and other nations. God promised to destroy Israel and leave a remnant of them for restoration. e. Oppressions of the poor by the rich God condemned King Jeroboam rule of Israel because of the oppression of the poor, government corruption and bribery of kings officials. These officials sold the righteous for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals (shoes) i.e. its like practising slavery. The rich trampled on the poor, despised them and placed no value on the poor. The poor gave their garments as security for loan. This was contrary to Gods commandments. The garment was supposed to be returned back to the owner before sunset. The Samaritan women were fat like the well fed cows of Bashan led luxurious lives and were very unkind to the poor. The rich took an excessive share of the harvest from the farmers. Rulers loved luxury and were arrogant. They loved material things and showed pride in material possessions. They used expensive perfumes. f. Corruption and bribery. The judges were corrupt. They accepted bribes. There was a conspiracy between the rich and the judges against the poor g. Pride in materials possessions The capital city of Israel was Samaria. It was built on a mountain called Bethel, which was also a place of worship. There was prosperity in the land. The Israelites prided themselves in their riches and materials possessions. Amos told them God would destroy their wealth. h. Dishonesty. This is telling lies, cheating or using unjust means to get certain things. The wealthy merchants waited impatiently for the end of the holy days so that they could engage in lucrative businesses. They cheated the poor by using false scales. They sold bad wheat to the poor. They mixed good and bad grains and sold them to unsuspecting people. i. Sexual immorality Sexual immorality was prevalent or common in Israel. For example a father and son would have sex with the same girl. There was temple (cultic) prostitution. There was dishonesty; sexual immorality. This sexual behaviour made the temple unholy. j. Drunkenness They Israelites spent time drinking when the poor lacked the basic needs. They engaged in excessive drinking of wine. They even forced the Nazarites to drink wine. They accepted drunkenness. k. Profaning the name of the God Israelites did not respect the name of God. They committed sin. They forced Nazirites to drink wine; forcing it down their throats yet they knew that Nazirites were people set aside and chosen by God to serve God. This act showed contempt of Gods commands. Nazirites were not supposed to drink wine or cut their hair. Israelites did this to show their contempt of the Lord, l. Hypocritical Religion and Idolatry in Israel Hypocrisy is pretending to be something different from the person one is. It is also saying one thing, and doing another thing. For example, Israelites did a lot of religious rites according to the laws of Moses and yet majority of them were unjust, corrupt and oppressed the poor. They observed the external religious activities while their hearts were corrupt and insincere. Amos condemned Israelites for this hypocrisy, characterized by insincere worship, and mixture of religious beliefs leading to diverse practices of religion i.e. syncretism. This is a combination or mixture of Israelites monotheism (Yahwehism) and worship of idols and other gods especially Baal, the gods of their neighbours. m. Empty sacrifices The Israelites made elaborative offerings and sacrifices. Yet God was interested only in sincere worship and free will offerings and not mere sacrifices, and tithes. Take away from me the noise of your songs (Amos 5:21 23). LESSON THREE. GODS JUDGMENT AGAINST ISRAEL AND OTHER NATIONS Read Amos chapter 1 and 2 Learning outcomes. After studying this lesson, you should be able to: a. State the sins committed by Israel and other nations b. Identify how God punished Israel and other nations i) Israel. She committed several crimes, which were condemned by Prophet Amos. Read lesson two again before you go on and list down crimes that were pointed out by Amos. Okay, you have seen that Israel committed crimes of injustice, disobedience to God, breaking their covenant with God, idolatry, hypocrisy among other sins mentioned above. Israel was punished for these crimes. Punishments were severe. Israelites would be exiled forcibly and painfully. Earthquakes, famines, fires, oppression from foreign kings, epidemics and divine silence, would destroy their kingdom and holy places. ii) Syria. Its capital was Damascus. Syria committed war crimes. The soldiers were excessively cruel in times of war. They murdered their prisoners brutally. For this cruelty, their punishment was to be severe. Their palaces would be destroyed by fire and the people would be exiled in Kir. iii) Gaza and philistines. Their crime was capturing other people and selling them into slavery. For this sin, Gods punishment was destruction of their city by divine fire. It would burn down the wall of Gaza city and destroy it. God would have no more association with them. iv) Tyre. Their Crime was violation of a treaty of friendship they had made. They broke it by capturing a whole nation into exile in the land of Edom. The punishment was God would send fire to destroy city of Tyre and its fortress (Amos 1:9-10). v. Edom. Her people were descendants of Esau. Yet Edom was ruthless to the Israelite to whom they were closely related. For this crime of ruthlessness, the punishment was God would destroy them by fire vi) Ammon committed crime of brutal killings. The people of Ammon attacked and killed their neighbours. They ripped open pregnant woman in Gilead (vs. 13). Gods punishment was destruction of the fortress and wall of the city of Rabbah by fire. Their king and his officers will go into exile: (vs. 15). vii) Moab. The people of Moab; their crime was mishandling the body of the king of Edom. They burned his bones to ashes. Gods punishment was destruction of the city of Kerioth by divine fire. The people, their rulers and leaders would be killed in battle. viii) Judah. Their crimes were (1) failure to obey Gods commands and (2) despising gods teaching. ix) Samaria, Egypt and Ashdod. Their crime was dishonesty and filling their mansions with things taken by crime and violence (Amos 3:10). Women of Samaria committed the crime of drunkenness, oppressing the weak and poor. The punishment for all these countries is destruction of their land, mansions and army. But a remnant will not go to captivity, and shall not be destroyed. Amos said the remnants are like 2 legs, or a piece of an ear of a sheep rescued from the mouth of a lion (Amos 3:12) x) Amaziah the priest of Bethel. He strongly opposed Amos and told him to go back and prophesy in Judah. Amos told Amaziah God sent him to Israel. His punishment for opposing Gods messenger was.. Amaziahs wife would be a harlot, his children will die in the war, his land will be given to others, and Amaziah will die in a foreign land (Amos 7: 14-17). Lessons to learn from Gods judgment of Israel and other nations The Assyrians attacked Israel, occupied their land and exiled others. God is (a) universal, (b) God hates sin (c) God is concerned about the welfare of his people (d) God is merciful and spares a remnant xi. Israels election (Amos 2:9 11, 3:1 2, 9:7 Election: is an act of choosing a person or group of people for a purpose or action. Israels election refers to Gods choice of the Israelites out of the entire human kind to be his people. God chose them to serve him, be a Holy nation and to be the light of the world. God made a covenant with the Israelites. In the covenant they agreed to live a holy life. In return, God looked after them. He led them out of Egypt to the wilderness and finally to Canaan. God chose His prophets from the Israelites and raised Nazirites. Despite Gods favour, the Israelites rebelled and sinned against God. And although Israelites were reminded that God cared for other nations equally and are to be punished if they disobeyed God; and that they were neither superior, nor better than other nations, they disobeyed God several times. xii. The day of the lord Amos taught that the day of the lord would be a day of severe judgment for sins. . It is not a time of happiness, joy or victory. It is a day of darkness, terror, disaster, gloom, wailing, flooding, mourning, defeat, punishment, famine for food and Gods word. xiii. The Remnant and Restoration. Remnant means a small number of survivors. These are the Israelites who will remain after the entire nation is punished. They are also those who returned to Jerusalem after the exile. Restoration is an act of reinstating things / persons to their former state or position. Amos informed the Israelites that God was still looking after them, and waiting for their repentance. The nation of Israel would not be destroyed completely. God would preserve the few righteous ones. He would raise the fallen dynasty of David. People would be restored back to their land to rebuild their cities. There was to be a great harvest and grapes shall overflow. xiv. Duty of Christians. Christians are the selected people of God. As the chosen ones, they should one, live holy lives and two, use their position to serve God and others. Three, Christians have a moral responsibility to spread Gods word, four, care for the needy and five, be the light of the world. xv. The Day of the lord. Read Amos 5:18-20, 6:3-5, 8:7-13. in the Old Testament, the day of the Lord is the day that Yahweh would make Israel victorious against other nations. On this day the Israelite believed that God would establish his rule over and with Israel. The day of the Lord was also believed to be the day when Israel would be prosperous, would have favour with God, and the just would triumph over the wicked. In the New Testament, the day of the lord is also the Day of Judgment (Parousia). It is the day of the second coming of Christ. On that day, everyone will be judged. Christians believe that it is the day that Christ will come for His bride (the church). Those who had obeyed the laws of God shall be received by Christ and given the reward of the eternal life. On that day, Gods kingdom shall be established and Christ will reign forever. xvi. Relevance of Amos teachings to Christians today. The messages of the prophecy of Amos are relevant to Christians today. This is because God is universal. He chose Israel but still punished her for her disobedience, and sins just as He punished other nations like Syria and Gaza. The message that God hates hypocrisy is very clear. Thus Christians should truthful and practice what they preach. They must worship God in sincerity. Other messages are: Justice. Christians should be just / fair in dealing with others. Self Indulgence. Christians should not pursue luxury and self- indulgence when others lack the basic needs. Bribery. Christians should condemn bribery and corruption, and uphold justice. Punishment. Christians should bear in mind that God will punish every evil. Wealth. When Israel became wealthy, they departed from the covenant with God. Christians should share their wealth with the needy and acquire their wealth justly Hypocritical religion. Amos taught about hypocrisy in religion. This was for example offering empty sacrifices. Christians have to learn to be sincere, to be concerned about their internal well being and soul more than outward observances of religion. Drunkenness. Christians should not engage in activities that can divert their faith from God. If that happens, they should learn to be Repentant. Revision exercise 1. List the visions that Amos saw 2. Explain the evils that Amos condemned in his teachings 3. Give reasons why prophet Amos condemned idol worship in Israel 4. List evils in the society today that Amos would condemn TOPIC FIVE. PROPHET JEREMIAH Introduction. Israel had not taken heed to Amos prophecies. This was especially on idolatry. So, God sent another prophet to continue with the same work. Jeremiah was therefore appointed as a prophet. Jeremiah is one of the Old Testament Major Prophets. He was called to a prophet at around 627 B.C. He was called as a young man, probably 20 years old. He prophesied in the southern kingdom- Judah, for a period of 40 years. His prophetic ministry took place before and during the exile of Judah. Learning Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: - a Describe the political, Social, and religious background of prophet Jeremiah. b Describe the personal life and call of Jeremiah. c Explain the evils condemned by Jeremiah. d Explain the contents of the temple sermon. e Highlight the relevance of Jeremiahs teaching on evils, false prophets and Christians today. LESSON ONE: THE CALL JEREMIAH Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: - i. Describe the situation of the people of Judah ii. Identify religious, political and socio classes of Judah iii. Describe the call of Jeremiah iv. Explain lessons that modern Christians can learn from the call of Jeremiah a. The Kingdom of Judah Social background The people of Judah were divided into three social classes. At the top were the (i) Aristocrats. These were the ruling class, which consisted of the king, his family, royal officials, princesses, priests, and professional prophets. This class of the rich oppressed the poor. Below them was the class (ii) of technical professional such as stonecutters, carpenters, builders, masons, blacksmiths, masons, and others craftsmen (2 Kings 12:12). Below them was class (iii) made up of poor people such as slaves, widows, orphans, and foreigners. All these poor people were mistreated. In terms of ethics, there was moral degradation. They committed adultery, prostitution, murder, false witness, and corruption. Religions background. The Kings and people of Judah worshipped idols. They practiced human sacrifice, divination and magic, and listened to false prophecies. They abandoned their covenant with God and their way of life and practiced syncretism, which is worshipping God and other false gods like Baal. King Josiah tried to restore true worship by carrying out several reforms. Prophetess Huldah prophesied that Judah would be punished after Josiahs death since he humbled before Yahweh. Political Background. Prophet Jeremiah lived in the 7th century BC and prophesied when Judah was ruled by King Josiah, and later his sons Jehoiakim, and Zedekiah; and king Jehoiachin. Judah was conquered and ruled by Assyrians who were conquered by Egyptians who ruled Judah up to 605 BC. Egyptians; were conquered by Babylonians under King Nebuchadnezzar. This was according to the prophecies of Jeremiah. b. The Call of Jeremiah. Read Jer 1: 19. Jeremiahs father was a priest called Hilkiah. He was born in the territory of Benjamin; at a place called Anathoth, He was well educated. Jeremiah was called to be a prophet in 627 B.C during the reign of King Josiah. He received his call in form of a dialogue with Yahweh. God told him that he had appointed him to be his messenger; even before he was formed in his mothers womb, God had selected him to be a prophet. Jeremiah said he was too young and did not know how to speak. Jeremiah was forewarned of the hostility he would encounter in his prophetic career. God told him that He would protect him and not to fear. God touched Jeremiahs mouth. This symbolized that God is the one who shall put words in his mouth. Jeremiah responded to Gods call in faith and obedience. He was given a message that God was going to bring judgment upon the Kingdom of Judah. God promised to make him a fortified city, an iron pillar and bronze wall for protection. He was commanded by God not to marry, neither have children and not to attend social gatherings, weddings, and funerals. His mission made him isolated and lonely. As a result, his own family and relatives rejected him and plotted to kill him. But he had few friends like Ebed- melech, Ahikam who helped him to get out of a pit. Jeremiah was persecuted by; the kings of Judah. Priests including priest Pashhur opposed him, and false prophets like Hannaniah. He prophesied that God shall punish wicked Kings, priests, and ordinary people. He suffered spiritually and emotionally. At the fall of Jerusalem in 587 B.C, the army officers of Nebuchadnezzar released him from prison. He went to Egypt where he died at an old age and as a faithful servant of God. His life was symbolic to the people of Judah. During his call, Jeremiah saw two visions. Vision one was the vision of a branch of an almond tree. The tree seemed dead, bare, yet life was in it. This vision was telling Judah that although God seemed to be sleeping, He was watching over them if they obey Him. Vision two was a pot boiling in the north, and it is about to tip over this way (1:13). The boiling pot tilted away from the north signified that the destroyers of Judah would come from the north. The pot was ready to boil over and spill its contents. This meant that Judah was soon going to have trouble. Babylon would pour horrifying disasters on Judah. Lessons from the call of Jeremiah God has a purpose for each person and He can call anybody to do His work. He calls the unborn, the young, old, rich, and poor. God prepares people for His work, through specific experiences at family level, in school, and church. A person who is called to serve God should be ready to meet opposition. God protects His servants and promises to be with them. Jeremiah felt inadequate to speak. Christians should not let their human weakness hinder them from performing their tasks. Christians should respond to Gods call in obedience. LESSON TWO. EVILS ADDRESSED BY JEREMIAH. Read Jeremiah 2, 3, 4, 5,7, 9, 10, 23, and 28. Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, 1. Name the evil practices that Jeremiah condemned 2. Explain why Jeremiah condemned these evil practices There were many evils in Judah and Israel. We have mentioned some of them. These were: necromancy, dishonesty, deception, false prophecy, human sacrifice, and idolatry i. Necromancy. Words related to necromancy are divinations, magic, sorcery, and playing tricks on peoples minds. Necromancy is the art of seeking hidden knowledge from the mysterious world of spirits: using magic, and divination, which is invoking the dead. Divination was condemned in the Hebrew language. Diviners, magicians, sooth sayers and fortunetellers used necromancy. Prophet Jeremiah condemned necromancy. Reasons why Jeremiah condemned necromancy Necromancy was a deception and therefore an evil practice. The diviners gave false information from their own imagination. This practice polluted the true worship of Yahweh and indicated Israelites lack of faith in the one true God. Two, by trusting in divination, and magic, the Israelites showed their lack of knowledge of the one true God. Three, by consulting the mediums, the Israelites disobeyed God (Jer 27:8-10). ii) Deception and Dishonesty Dishonesty is lack of moral integrity or moral uprightness. Deception is cheating, and telling lies intentionally. It is also giving false and misleading information. The Israelites were dishonest because they worshiped God and at the same time committed social injustices against their brothers and sisters. Their repentance was insincere. There was treachery, and greed. They laid traps for each other. People pretended to be friendly and at the same time conspired to kill. Jeremiah challenged the Israelites people to circumcise their hearts which were deceitful. Their tongues were deadly arrows and they listened to false prophesies like that of Hannaniah Jeremiah condemned deception. This was because it led to syncretism, and hypocrisy in worship; and breaking down of the covenant way of life. Jeremiah warned the Israelites and asked them to repent iii. False prophesy by Hannaniah. Jer 28 During the reign of king Zedekiah, Hannaniah broke the yoke that Jeremiah was wearing. Hannaniah spoke in the name of Yahweh. He lied to the people as he spoke from his imagination and dreams. Jeremiah denounced Hannaniah. He predicted and prophesied the death of Hannaniah in the same year. And it came to pass. Jeremiah had also prophesied that the captivity of Judah should be long contrary to Hannaniah who said Judah will be exiled for 2 years. Reasons for condemning false prophets Prophets of Baal were still in existence. False prophets like Hannaniah had filled the people of Israel with unrealistic hopes of peace yet Judah was to be destroyed. Recall the characteristics of true and false prophets. False prophets did not condemn sin. They prophesied for money and in the process misled people away from Yahweh. False prophets prophesied from their dreams, imaginations and not from God. They gave people false hopes. They intended to make themselves popular, with the King and the people. iv) Human sacrifice. The people offered human sacrifice to idols and oppressed each other. Human sacrifice is the act of killing human beings for a religious or spiritual purpose. The Israelites copied this activity from the Canaanites. Children were believed to be the best sacrifice since people believed they would get great favors from the deities. Some kings such as Ahaz and Manasseh sacrificed their sons to idols. Jeremiah condemned human sacrifice. Reasons for condemning human sacrifice Human sacrifice was an act of idolatry. It indicated infidelity of the Israelites to the one true God. It demonstrated Israels disrespect for the sacred gift of life. It showed their lack of knowledge of the true nature of Yahweh. Human sacrifice defiled the land for life is in the blood. Blood speaks hence the land was crying at this vengeance. God did not ask for human sacrifices. Human sacrifice was a sign of lack of love of God and love for one another. It is a demonstration of disregard for human life. Only God has the right to take away life. In our country people kill each other every day especially on the road. Why do we do this? v. Idolatry Idolatry is the worship of many gods. Idols are images made by people for worship. The Israelites practiced syncretism, which we said was the worship of Yahweh and idols. The people of Israel were worshipping Baal the Queen of heaven, sun, moon, stars, and also Yahweh (Jer 8:2). Idols were placed even in Yahwehs sacred places. The temple was defiled by idols. This the temple unclean. Jeremiah condemned it. He told the people of Israel that {they have forsaken the fountain of living waters (GOD) and hewn out for themselves broken cisterns (IDOLs) that can hold no water (Jer 2: 11-13). Why did Jeremiah condemn idolatry? Read Jer 2: 20, 2:1- 3, 5: 7- 8. Idolatry is like adultery and prostitution. It defiled people and was a sign of lack of faith in Yahweh. It defiled the land. Idolatry led to divine judgment and punishment. People of Judah abandoned Yahweh the Husband and chased lovers the idols and deities The Israelites (Northern kingdom) had been punished before and yet Judah did not learn from them. By worshipping idols Judah broke the covenant and their relationship with God. And unless the people of Judah repented, they would be punished; as there is only one true living God to be worshipped and obeyed. Is there idolatry among Christians todays vi. Other evils condemned by Jeremiah People of Judah trusted that the temple was secure, holy and cannot be destroyed. Jeremiah denounced this false belief about the temple. He warned them that God would destroy the temple because of the many evils committed in it. The temple of God had become a den of robbers and human sacrifices. People of Judah committed other evils such as hypocrisy (Jer 7; 9-10); social injustice (adultery, murder), stubbornness, and rebellion. vi. The temple Temple is a place of worship. The temple of Israelites was in Jerusalem. It signified the presence of God among his people. The Israelites believed God could never destroy or allow destruction of the temple. Jeremiah stood at the gates of the temple court during Jehuiakims reign, and Judah that God would destroy the temple and send them to exile. He urged them to repent and turn back to God. King Josiah heard the message of Jeremiah and he reformed religious practices in Judah. vii. Religions reforms carried out by King Josiah This topic is not clearly spelt out in the syllabus. It is based on the book of Deuteronomy. The scroll was discovered in the temple during repairs. Josiah ordered the repair of the temple of God. He led a national ceremony to review the covenant. He destroyed idols and altars associated with the worship of foreign deities throughout Judah. He eliminated all the priests associated with the worship of false deities. He celebrated Passover in Jerusalem. The successors of King Josiah did not follow his example. They became corrupt. They persecuted the prophets of God. They listened to false prophets. They promoted idolatry and child sacrifice. viii. The Relevance of Jeremiahs teachings to Christians today. Christians should denounce hypocrisy in the society today. They should not result to witchcraft, divination and sorcery. They should be upright, and worship God in sincerity. They are to proclaim divine judgment upon those who refuse to obey Gods will, just like Jeremiah declared Gods judgment upon Judah due to the sins of the people. Like Jeremiah, Christians should speak out against modern idols like love of money, power, obsession with sports, sex, and drugs among other evils. Christians should condemn destruction of human life, violence; murder, abortion, parents killing their own children, genocide and exploitation of the poor. Christians should be aware of the existence of false teachings and prophecies. They should pray for Gods guidance and wisdom to be able to distinguish truth from false teaching. Christians have a responsibility to correct one another and call on sinners to repent. Christians are to be trustworthy, upright, and merciful to the poor and condemn dishonesty. They should practice justice in their relationship with others; preach against disobedience, stubbornness and pray to God to help them overcome these vices.

JEREMIAHS TEACHINGS ON JUDGMENT AND PUNISHMENT Read Jeremiah 5:12-18, 6;1-30, 7:30, 8:1-17, 10: 17-25, 15;1-9, 17:1-13, 25: 1-38 Learning Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: - a Summarize in two paragraphs Jeremiah key teachings. b Explain the significance of symbolic acts related to judgement and punishment. c Describe suffering and lamentations of Jeremiah d Explain the teachings of Jeremiah on the new covenant. a. Jeremiah teachings. Sin was internalise in the hearts of the people of Judah. God punished them. God punishes people because of their unfaithfulness. Punishment is a penalty, for an offence or a crime committed. But in punishing people, God is a just judge. He does not punish people without a reason irrespective of their status. God judges people by looking into their hearts. Divine judgment is for a group. For example, the people of Judah were punished as a group. However God searches each persons heart and judges accordingly. God executes His judgment by means of political and historical events. Divine punishments are in forms of natural disasters like drought, famine, and epidemics. Gods punishment is unavoidable, and inescapable. Judah took the best option by surrendering to the Babylonians. The purpose for Gods judgement is to correct the sinner. God gave his people a chance to repent before he punished them. Gods judgment is universal. It is not limited to one nation. God punished the neighbours of Judah who at that time were Egypt, Moab, Ammon, and Babylon. Gods punishment is severe compared to that of venomous snakes that bite the people of Judah. Gods judgement is not necessarily a punishment from God for ones sins. It is symbolic. The sufferings of Jeremiah were symbolic of the life of the people of Judah. What can we learn about Gods punishments? Are modern disasters such as cyclones, floods, earthquakes, landslides, epidemics, bomb blasts, civil wars, forest fires, rebellions in schools a sign of Gods judgment and punishment? What do you think? b. Symbolic acts related to judgement and punishment People use several methods to convey messages to each other. We use songs, advertisements, dramas, and stories by the fireside, in novels, the Internet, and magazines to communicate messages about children, adults, society, political leaders, poverty and many others. The prophets used: (1). Oracles; Thus says the Lord; (2) Allegories (3) Parables (4) Songs (5) Symbolic Visions (6) Symbolic actions and (7) dramatized messages Symbolic acts of Jeremiah i The linen waist cloth (Jer.13) ii Jeremiahs personal life (Jer.16) iii Jeremiahs visit to a potter (Jer.18) iv The broken earthen flask (Jer.19) v The symbolic vision of 2 baskets of figs (Jer.24) vi The wearing of the yoke i. The Linen Waist Cloth. Read Jer.13 Jeremiah was instructed by God to buy a linen waistcloth and wear it around his waist without dipping it in water. He was told to hide the cloth in a hole near river Euphrates. Afterwards he was told to take the cloth. He found it spoilt for wearing. Significance. The liner material was for priestly garments in Israel. It symbolized Israels holiness. The unwashed cloth represented Judahs sinful pride. Israel used to cling close to God but now Israel / Judah were spoilt, rebellious, arrogant and pursued foreign gods. God was going to destroy them if they did not repent. The spoilt linen waistcloth was a symbol for future Gods action. ii. Jeremiahs personal Life. Read Jer 16. His life was a symbolic act. He was told not to marry, have children, and nor attend funerals, social gatherings, feasts and wedding parties. Significance. The personal life of Jeremiah was one of suffering. This signified the suffering that the people of Judah would be subjected to. Judah was punished because of their wickedness and rebellion. Jeremiahs loneliness signified the perishing of families through the sword, famine and disease. It would be a time of terror for the families of Judah. Their normal social life of feasting, merry making would come to an end. There would be no weddings and no one to bury the dead. Hence Jeremiah was forbidden from mourning for the dead. iii. Jeremiahs at the potters house (Jer.18) Jeremiah was told to go to a potters house. He found the potter making a clay vessel. Whenever a piece of pottery turned out imperfect, he would take the clay and make it into something else (18: 4). The potter made a better pot, more perfect vessel than the spoilt one. Significance. God is the potter. People of Judah are the clay. As the potter destroyed to vessel, God intended to destroy Judah because of their wickedness and mould those who repented into better people. God was going to shape them into faithful people. Gods judgement was to be a corrective punishment. iv. The broken clay Jar. Read Jer.19. God told Jeremiah to buy a clay flask He then took some elders and priests to the valley of Valley of Hinnon. He delivered a sermon condemning the people of Judah for their idolatry and other evils. Jeremiah then broke the clay jar in their presence and announced to them that Yahweh would destroy Jerusalem and Judah as Jeremiah had destroyed the jar. Significance. The kings, priests and prophets of Judah would be shattered like the clay flask because of their sins. Sine, they brutally sacrificed their children; they are to suffer horrifying experiences at the hand of their enemies. They shall suffer starvation and turn into cannibals; eating their own children and neighbours (v.9). Broken pieces of a clay pot cannot be moulded. No one was to escape judgment. However there is hope after punishment. v. Two Baskets of Figs (Jer.24). Jeremiah received the visions, after the deportation and exile of leading citizens of Judah and Israel to Babylon. Two baskets of figs were placed in front of the temple. One basket had very good figs, which had ripened. The other basket had bad figs unfit for human consumption. Significance. The basket of good figs signified the first exile. God would renew their hearts; use them to fulfil his promises to the Israelites. He would recreate them to a new people. The basket of the bad figs represented people living in Jerusalem and Egypt. Since they were not exiled they had a self-righteous attitude. They thought that God spared them because they were truthful but it was not so. They shall also be destroyed through famine, and diseases. This vision signifies hope and restoration of the Israelites. vi. Jeremiah Wears an Ox Yoke. Read Jer. 27. When Zedekiah son of Josiah became the ruler of Judah, Jeremiah was instructed by God to make for himself a yoke out of leather straps and wooden crossbars and to wear it around his neck (27: 2). Jeremiah moved around in the yoke for quite sometime in public. He was also given a message for ambassadors of kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon, who were coming to see King Zedekiah in Jerusalem. They were to give Gods message to their kings. The message was to submit to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia; his son, and his grandson. Any nation that accepted this message shall not suffer; but if any nation ..will no submit to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia rule, God will punish that nation by war, starvation and disease Read Jer 27:6-8. The message for king Zedekiah was to surrender to the Babylonian rule and live, if he resists he would perish. The message for priests and people of Judah was not to be misled by the false prophets. The temple would be destroyed. Its treasures looted by the Babylonians. Significance. The yoke represented the Babylonians rule. Nebuchadnezzar was used by God to bring judgment to all nations. Yahweh is a universal God and his judgment is universal. Sinners are punished regardless of their origin or nation. Those who repent are spared. Reflection questions Why did God inspire Jeremiah to use symbolic acts to convey his message? Answer Israelites were stubborn. Jeremiah acts were reminders to Judah to turn to God and stop idolatry and all the sins they were committing. They had drifted too far from God. False prophets were prophesying lies to them. The people of Judah were expected to meditate on these acts and understand Gods will for them and see the seriousness of the matter. This was also to imprint a lasting impression in their minds. SAQ. Which methods do pastors / priests use to communicate Gods message to Christians today? c. The sufferings and lamentations of Jeremiah Read Jer 11, 12, 17:14 18, 18:18- 23 , 20: 1 6, 27, 37, and 38. Jeremiah sufferings were experiences that were painful; physically and emotionally. In suffering there is loss and grief. Lamentations are strong emotional expressions of pain and grief. Jeremiah suffered in the following ways I. Rejection by his own family and relatives. They plotted to kill him. This grieved Jeremiah. II. Anathoth planned to kill him but God protected Jeremiah. He pronounced Gods judgment upon them III. Jeremiah suffered when he was accused falsely. He was accused of blasphemy after the temple sermon. He foretold the destruction of the temple, just like Jesus Christ in the New Testament did. IV. He was accused of treachery. That he was planning to leave Jerusalem and join the Babylonians. This led to Jeremiah being arrested and put in an underground jail. V. Jeremiah received death threats because of speaking for God. King Jehoiakim plotted to kill prophet Uriah. The prophet escaped to Egypt but he was followed to Egypt, arrested and killed by king Jehoiakim. The king had planned to accuse Jeremiah of Uriah death. Ahikam and other elders defended Jeremiah. (Jeremiah 26) VI. Jeremiah suffered loneliness and solitude. He felt emotional anguish and complained to God of his orders not to marry, neither attend social gathering and celebrations. This made Jeremiah lonely since he did not participate in the family life, political life, community activities and religious life. VII. Jeremiah experienced inner personal struggle due to his love for his own people He did not want to see them suffer but the people were stubborn Read Jer. 12:1 6, 15:10 21, and 27. VIII. Jeremiahs prophesying judgment caused him emotional pain and agony. His messages were mainly of severe judgment and punishment. IX. He went through a spiritual struggle in his relationship with God. He felt frustrations, doubts, self-pity and despair. He wondered why God made him suffer. Why do the wicked prosper? He also wondered why God was taking too long to fulfil his prophecies. God assured him that Judah would be punished and promised to give Jeremiah victory against his enemies. X. Jeremiah suffered physical assault, imprisonment and an attempt on his life. Pashhur, the chief temple priest ordered beating and chaining of Jeremiah to the temple gate. Jeremiah prophesied that Pashshurs name would change to terror everywhere. XI. King Zedekiah released Jeremiah from the cell to his court. Jeremiah continued to prophecy and was thrown in a muddy cistern. Here he was rescued by Ebed- melech an Ethiopian Eunuch. The court officials had accused him of not being patriotic. Jeremiah remained in jail until the Babylonians overthrew Jerusalem. He did not change his prophecies. Read Jer. 10:1 6, 27, 37, and 38. Is there relevance of the sufferings and lamentations of Jeremiah to Christians today? From his suffering Christians learn to be ready to face opposition and rejection from their own family members and relatives for the sake of the gospel. Christians should be prepared to suffer persecution for the Lord. Christians should be ready to make sacrifices for the sake of God. Be ready to lead humble lives. Jeremiahs open confessions to God encourage Christians to be open to God. Christians should let God avenge for them just like Jeremiah prayed to God to revenge his enemies. Christians should not lose hope in times of difficulty. Christians learn that tribulations strengthen their faith. Christians should learn to deal with negative emotions such as self pity, grief and trust God. Jeremiah was told by God to repent of his negative utterances. Christians should do the same as they are assured of divine security and protection against their persecutors. LESSON FOUR. JEREMIAHS TEACHING ABOUT THE NEW COVENANT A covenant is an agreement. Another word for covenant is testament. Jeremiah taught that there would be a new covenant between God and Israel. This new covenant would be different from the Old (Sinai) covenant. The new covenant would renew the broken relationship between God and his people. Lesson outcomes. After reading Jeremiahs teaching: a. State the terms of the new covenant. b. Identify the differences between the old covenant and the new covenant c. Summarize the similarities between the old covenant and the new covenant a. The New Covenant. In the new covenant, the law would be written in the hearts of the people unlike the old covenant where the law was written on stone tablets. Every individual would know God personally and not through prophets as it was during times of Jeremiah and previous one. Each person would be responsible for his/her sins. God would forgive sins and remember them no more. The new covenant would be established after Gods punishment of Israel and establishing a new Israel, a new people of God. The new covenant would establish a new beginning. People would forget the first Exodus. The second Exodus would be deliverance and restoration from Babylon. God would initiate the new covenant as he did with the first. It would be a new covenant of peace, unity, prosperity, Joy and gladness. In the new covenant a righteous branch would be established. The new covenant would be everlasting. It would not be broken again. b. Differences between the old covenant and the new covenant Old Covenant New Covenant 1. Based on law Based on faith 2. Word written on stone tablets Word written in peoples hearts 3. God known personally by a few priests prophets and prophets Each to person to know God personally 4. Covenant broken when people sinned Everlasting covenant 5. Sins punished collectively Sins punished individually 6. 1st Exodus from Egypt 2nd Exodus from Babylon 7. Sealed by animal sacrifice Sealed by Jesus sacrifice (blood) What are the similarities between the old and the new covenant? Jesus fulfilled the new covenant. Jesus is the righteous branch from the lineage of David. In the last supper, before his death, Jesus said this cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood. Read Luke, 22:20. The death and resurrection of Jesus marks the new covenant. Jesus spoke of forgiveness of sins of humanity Jesus forgave peoples sins, for example, the sinful woman in Simons house (Luke7: 36 50). In the new covenant the law would be written in peoples hearts. Jesus summarized the Mosaic Law into love God with all your heart, mind, strength and love your neighbour as you love yourself. Jesus established the kingdom of God as a new community of Gods people based on faith (the Christians). Jesus fulfilled the new covenant prophecies The teachings of Jeremiah new covenant of hope and restoration is fulfilled in Jesus Christ and the new testament church (Christians) Heb.8:7 12. LESSON FIVE. JEREMIAHS TEACHINGS ON HOPE AND RESTORATION Learning Outcomes (a) Explain the symbolic acts related to hope and restoration (b) Describe the fall of Jerusalem and the exile of the Israelites (c) Relate the relationship of the teachings of Jeremiah to the New Testament and Christian life today. A. Symbolic acts related to hope and restoration. The symbolic acts were one hope and restore. Hope is to expect something that is desired; while to restore is to bring back as nearly as possible the former or original state or condition. The symbolic acts were 5 in number. The first symbolic act was a vision of 2 baskets of figs. We have discussed it. Refer to the symbolic act related to judgment. The second symbolic act was Jeremiah buying a field. God instructed Jeremiah to buy a field from his cousin Hanamel of Anathoth. Jeremiah bought the field for 17 cents of silver. He then handed the title deed and open copy to Baruch. Baruch was told to keep the title deed and the copy in an earthen vessel for preservation for a long time. Jeremiah prophesied the restoration of the exiles to their homeland. The significance of this symbolic act is the assurance of restoration of Judah and Israel after suffering. People will be restored to their homeland. After 70 years people of Judah would reconstruct their homes, cultivate their land, and own property (Jer 32; 1 -15). The third symbolic act was Jeremiah letter to the Jews in Babylonia. Jeremiah wrote to the people of Judah a letter of encouragement while in exile. They were to settle down, build houses, marry and have children, live in peace with the Babylonians. They were to pray for the welfare of their masters and to ignore false prophets who lied to them about the safety of Jerusalem and a quick return. God would restore them back to their land after 70 years of exile were over. The exiles were to trust in God and not give up (Jer.29). The four symbolic act was a wooden ox yoke. The yoke represented captivity and suffering of Jews in exile. It was also a sign of hope if the people of Judah were willing to submit to the Babylonian rule. God would restore them back to their land. Their yoke would be broken and they would be set free. The fifth symbolic act was the visit to the porters house b. The fall of Jerusalem and the exile of the Israelites (Jer.39) Jeremiahs prophecy came to pass. Jerusalem fell to the Babylonians in the ninth year of king Zedekiah in 587BC. The Babylonians conquered Jerusalem and seized it. King Zedekiah fled but; he was captured by the Babylonians army. He witnessed the execution of his sons. His eyes were gauged out. He was then taken in chains to captivity in Babylon. Solomons temple was looted and destroyed. Villages, Jerusalem and the palace were destroyed and burnt down. The priests, court officials, army officials, people in the upper class, craftsmen were executed. City people were taken to Babylon as captives. The poor, aged and a few people were left behind and given vineyards to farm. Nebuchadnezzars army was brutal to the Israelites. Many were killed. A few like Ebed Melech were spared as prophesied by Jeremiah (he had rescued him from the well). Nebuchadnezzar ordered the release of Jeremiah. He was treated well Judah became a province of Babylon. Gedaliah was appointed governor of Judah. He stayed at Mizpah, the headquarters of Judah. Ishmael killed Gedaliah. Later Jeremiah was forced to go to Egypt by the Israelites. Jeremiah died in Egypt, an old man, and still faithful to his call. LESSON SIX. RELATING THE TEACHINGS OF JEREMIAH TO THE NEW TESTAMENT AND CHRISTIAN LIFE TODAY Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson you should be able to: - 1.Describe the teachings of Jeremiah in relation to Christian life today 2. Describe the teachings of Jeremiah in relation to the new testament Jeremiah was rejected by his; relatives, friends and the Israelites. In the New Testament, Jesus was rejected in his hometown of Nazareth: and by the religious leaders of Israel. Jeremiah compared himself to a lamb being led to the slaughter. Jesus in the New Testament is referred to as a lamb led to the slaughter. Jeremiahs suffering symbolizes divine judgment over Judah. However Jesus sufferings was to bring salvation to all mankind. Both Jeremiah and Jesus experienced spiritual agony. Jeremiah experience agony and felt left alone by God. Jesus too felt agony when praying in the garden of Gethsemane and when on the cross. Jeremiah taught that God is universal and a just judge. The gospel of Jesus is universal and everybody is judged according to his or her faith in God. Jeremiah and Jesus accused the Israelites of turning the temple into a den of robbers. Jeremiah and Jesus were both accused of blasphemy. Both challenged false beliefs about the temple. Both Jeremiah and Jesus spoke of the coming judgment of God. The new covenant was fulfilled in the life and ministry of Jesus Christ Jeremiah spoke of hope and restoration. Jesus gives hope of eternal life in the New Testament. ii. Relationship of Jeremiahs teaching to Christian today. Christians are to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. They are empowered by the Holy Spirit to endure suffering and to grow spiritually. Christians like Jeremiah face false prophets who speak in Jesus name. Christians are to be watchful and obey Yahweh Like Jeremiah Christians should call people to repentance. The new covenant is fulfilled in Christians individual relationship with God. Christians are the new people, the new Israel as prophesied by Jeremiah. His teachings reveal that God is universal. Christians are from all corners of the earth. Christians should prepare for divine judgment by practicing love, righteousness, self-denial, and faith in God. Revision exercise 1.

Nehemiah is a record of his deep dependence on God and his frequent prayer to God. Nehemiah means Yahweh has comforted. Nehemiah was the son of Hacaliah of Judah. He was not a prophet. He was exiled to Babylon. Persians captured Babylon and improved the living condition of the Israelites. They were allowed religious freedom but had to pay tributes. Learning outcomes. By the end of this topic you should be able to; a. Describe the historical, religious and social background to Nehemiah b. Identify occasions when Nehemiah prayed c. Explain the importance of prayer in Christian life D .Describe leadership qualities of Nehemiah and relevance to Christians today. LESSON ONE. BACKGROUND TO NEHEMIAH Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, i. Describe how the people of Judah lived and worshipped. ii. Explain the conquest of Israel and Judah by foreign forces iii. Give reasons why God allowed Judah and Israel to be conquered and exiled. a. Political and historical background. From 587 BC to 538 BC, Israelites were in exile. In 538 B.C., the first group of Israelites was set free and returned to Judah. Cyrus the Great, of Persia ruled his subjects through governors. They were led out of Babylon by Joshua the high priest and Zerubbabel who became the first governor of Judah. Some Jews remained in Babylon. They were referred to as Jews in Diaspora or dispersion. Other Jews remained in other lands including Egypt, and Mediterranean lands Nehemiah. He was a cupbearer in the palace of the Persian king Artaxerxes I. He later became a governor of Judah. Even after the rebuilding of the wall of Jerusalem, Israelites remained subjects of the Persian king. The Wall of Jerusalem was important to Israel and Judah. The Wall represented a sense of pride, ownership, privacy, independence and Security. The Greeks conquered the Persians; who were later conquered by Romans. b. Social background The Jews in foreign lands retained their Jewish way of life. The land of Israel was partly occupied by foreigners. The foreign cultures of neighboring rulers influenced Israelites who returned. They for example, intermarried with foreigners, a custom that God did not allow. Israelites were not to intermarry with other people according to the Mosaic Law. In spite of this however, Jews maintained their separated identity. Some of the foreigners despised Jews. The wealthy Jews oppressed the poor Jews. In Jerusalem there was starvation. Nehemiah condemned oppression of the poor. c. Religious background Jews returned to rebuild the temple of Jerusalem and the altar of God for sacrifices. While in exile, Jews were allowed by the Babylonian king to practice their religion. They worshipped Yahweh, practiced circumcision, obeyed dietary laws and observed the Sabbath. The exiles could not however observe all the religious practices for example offering animal sacrifices. Nehemiah returned to Jerusalem to rebuild its the wall. The temple of Jerusalem was rebuilt, cleared and dedicated to God. LESSON TWO. Prayers by Nehemiah and modern Christians Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson the learner should be able to: a. Outline occasions when Nehemiah prayed to the Lord. b. Discuss the importance of prayer Nehemiah prayed, mourned, and fasted. He prayed often and for all actions, keeping Gods law, forgiveness, punishments, human relations, Jerusalem, good works, contributions and offerings, observance of Sabbath day, and preparing duty allocations for priests and Levites. . i. When he learnt about the suffering of Jews who remained in Judah and the ruined state of Jerusalem; He prayed for forgiveness on behalf of his people (Neh.4: 1 11). ii. Making a request to King Artaxerxes to be permitted to return to Judah (Neh.2: 4 iii. When his enemies ridiculed the Jews and planned to discourage them from rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem. Tobiah in particular said that the wall was poorly constructed and it could be brought down by; a fox jumping on it. Nehemiah requested God to punish the enemies who were mocking temple builders (Neh.4: 4 5). iv. When he learnt that his enemies were conspiring to attack Jerusalem to stop the construction work, he prayed and organised people to provide a 24-hour guard of the wall (Neh.4: 7 9). .v. For his good work, he prayed for his works (Neh 5:19). vi. When his enemies plotted to destroy him, he prayed God for strength and courage to overcome his enemies (Neh 6: 19). vii. When Shemaih attempted to frighten him to hide in the temple claiming that there was a plot to kill him, Nehemiah prayed and asked God to punish his enemies (Neh 6:14). viii. When he organized contributions for Levites and musicians; and people to distribute them. He asked God to remember his work for the house of God (Neh 13:14). ix. He stopped trade on the Sabbath day, and organised rest on the Sabbath day. He warned traders against violating the Sabbath law. He asked Lord to remember him for these actions (Neh.13: 22). x. Nehemiah prayed for punishment of the son of Joiada. The son of Joiada had brought disgrace to the priest hood by marrying a foreigner, the daughter of Sanballat from the town of Beth Horon, (Neh 13:29). After cleansing the Israelites of foreign influence, he forbade mixed marriages xi. He prepared duty regulations for priests and Levites. He allocated them duties. He then organised Jews to bring offerings for maintaining priests and Levites. He prayed God to remember his work for the temple, priests and Levites (Neh 13:31). b. Importance of prayer in Christian life Through prayers, Christians express their faith in God and praise God for his greatness, goodness, holiness, and majesty. Prayer brings Christians closer to God; it strengthens their relationship with God. Through prayer Christians request for their needs, blessings, success, good health, and protection among other requests. Prayers help Christians to listen to God and to seek his will. Prayer is a source of strength. It gives Christians courage to face and overcome lifes challenges. Christians seek guidance, comfort and support in times of trials. In prayer, Christians intercede for the sick, poor, hungry, prisoners, friends, family and community. The communal / public prayers unite Christians together. Through prayers, Christians ask for forgiveness and the ability to forgive others. In prayers, Christians trust that God listens and answers their prayers. LESSON THREE: LEADERSHIP QUALITIES OF NEHEMIAH Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson you should be able to: - 1. State the leadership qualities of Nehemiah 2. Explain the relevance of Nehemiahs leadership qualities to Christians today Introduction. A leader is someone charged with the responsibility of guiding, controlling, directing and leading others.

LESSON FOUR. BUILDING THE WALL OF JERUSALEM The wall of Jerusalem was destroyed when Babylonians conquered Judah. After finishing the wall, he dedicated it to the Lord. Dedication is to devote something in honor of a person held dear or to set aside something for some special purpose. Learning Outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: - a. Describe the problems that Nehemiah faced when building the wall of Jerusalem b. Describe the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem c. Identify lessons, which Christians can learn from Nehemiah. a. Nehemiah rebuilt the wall of Jerusalem. The rebuilt wall had several gates with different names. The gates were the entrances to Jerusalem. Their names were Dung gate, Potsherd gate, Fountain gate, Water gate, Horse gate, East gate, Sheep gate, Fish gate, Watch gate and Ephraim gate. Knowing the names of the gates may not be necessary but its good information. b. Problems faced by Nehemiah. When Nehemiah was building the wall of Jerusalem, he faced many challenges. There was lack of cooperation by the nobles of Tekoa. They did not want to do manual work at first but they later repented. Nehemiah faced opposition from enemies such as. Sanballat, and Tobiah, the Arab who tried to thwart the progress of Nehemiahs work. As he built Jerusalem, the rich oppressed the poor. This was worsened by famine The priests misused the temple and the offerings. For example, temple duties had been abandoned. The Levites were not getting their share of the offerings and the Sabbath was violated. There was laxity in observance of the Sabbath. This was a challenge to Nehemiah because Sabbath day should be kept holy. There was a lot of foreign influence because of the conquests by several foreign armies, intermarriages and interactions between Jews, neighboring people and foreigners. Marriages in particular threatened the identity of the Israelites as a nation. Worse still Priests married to foreign women defiled the priesthood according to Nehemiah. Because of these assimilations of Jews through marriages, Nehemiah knew that Israel and Judah would eventually be lost as Gods nation. Because of his opposition to these interactions, Nehemiah received death threats. c. Dedication of the wall of Jerusalem (NEH. 12:27 47) The rebuilt wall was dedicated to God. The wall restored security and prestige of Gods people. The wall of Jerusalem was set-aside for God in a solemn ceremony. There was a dedication ceremony in which people sung with symbols, harps, lyres, trumpets and other instruments. The priests, and Levites purified themselves. The people led by Ezra, Nehemiah, the priests and other leaders of Judah walked around the wall. They divided themselves into two groups. One group walked from the right side and the other group from the left side and converged at the temple. Sacrifices were offered and people rejoiced. Some men were appointed to be in charge of the storehouses; where tithes, and first fruits of harvest were kept. d. Relevance of Nehemiahs experience to Christians today Christians should expect opposition, as did Nehemiah. They should not be afraid of being ridiculed, mocked and despised. If it happens, Christians should persevere in Gods work. They should put their trust in God like Nehemiah did. They should also fight for the welfare of the disadvantaged groups and not exploit them. They have a moral obligation to condemn injustice and take practical steps to help solve problems that afflict individuals, groups, nations, and society. They should be in the forefront fighting HIV/ AIDS and drug abuse. Christians should be on the look out for external influence that may corrupt morals of the society and the church. They should learn that leadership involves suffering, persecution, and sacrifices. This is foregoing personal interests for the sake of the kingdom of God. LESSON FIVE: RENEWAL OF THE COVENANT Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: - i. List the stages followed to renew the covenant. ii. Identify issues that Ezra mentioned in his prayer iii. List the vows that were made by the Israelites during renewal of the covenant i. Stages of the renewal of the covenant. Israelites were the chosen people of God. They had suffered many hardships. There was therefore a need for the renewal of the covenant between God and Israelites. The ceremony to renewal the covenant was held in Jerusalem and was led by Ezra, the Levites and other religious leaders. The renewal of the covenant can be discussed in 3 main stages: Stage 1. A great public assembly was held in the square of Jerusalem inside the water gate. Gods law was read and expounded to the people. The people of Israel praised and worshipped God. They cried and grieved. They were sad because they realized that they had failed to observe the Mosaic Law. They were instructed to go and celebrate, as it was a holy day of God and an occasion for joy not sorrows. State 2. The feast of booths/tabernacle was celebrated for 7 days. It was a reminder of the days in the wilderness when the Israelites dwelt in tents. The Law of Moses was read each day during the celebrations. Stage 3. There was a public confession of sin. People fasted, prayed and praised God. The public confession was followed by the renewal of the covenant vows and a promise to keep Gods law in future. Ezras prayer closed the celebrations. In his prayer, he recalled Gods acts of creation. He then recounted the history of the Israelites. He mentioned the previous acts of God; where the Lord had demonstrated His love and mercy for the Israelites. He then confessed the sins of their ancestors and the present Israelites. These were the sins of rebellion and disobedience. ii. Promises and vows made by Israelites during the renewal of the covenant. Israelites promised God that they would
Live according to Gods law, by obeying all his commands and
requirements.
Stop intermarrying with foreigners living in their land. Cancel debts every 7th year Contribute annually towards the temple expenses to ensure that the
house of God was not neglected.
Provide sacrifices and offerings for the temple and arrange for provision
of wood for burnt sacrifices according to the law.
Offer first fruits of their harvest and dedicate the first born and flocks as
required by the law.
Pay for their tithes as required by the law.
Which lessons can we learn from the renewal of the covenant? God is good, loving, merciful, and faithful to his promises. God forgives all people and we are all sinners. We fail in our moral obligation to God and to one another. Since we are sinners, we should repent our sins and strive to live according to Gods law. Christians are to encourage one another as well as others to repent as it brings about reconciliation with God and with one another. Christians should be forgiving and avoid situations that lead them to sin SAQ. Check from form 1 work, this information. 1. Outline Nehemiahs final reforms 2. What is a covenant? 3. What are the components of a covenant? 4. Discuss how the covenant was renewed 5. List examples of covenants in the Old Testament and modern life. 6. Explain what Christians can learn from the experiences of Nehemiah 7. Compare or relate the teachings from Nehemiahs exemplary life to the teaching of St. Lukes Gospel and Christian life today. LESSON SIX: FINAL REFORMS OF NEHEMIAH Introduction. Changes for improvement are known as reforms, which are either political, economical, social, religious or a combination of any of them. Examples of reformers are King David, Prophet Elijah, and Martin Luther King among others. Nehemiah. After building the wall, Nehemiah went back to King Artaxerxes II who if you remember had given permission to go to Jerusalem and build its destroyed perimeter wall. Later he returned to Jerusalem and carried out these reforms. Lesson outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: a. List reforms of Nehemiah b. Suggest what we can learn from the teachings of Nehemiah and that of St. Lukes Gospel a. Reforms by Nehemiah. We have discussed reforms, which Nehemiah carried out during his stay in Judah, where he was the governor (Neh 5:14). The major reforms were i Rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem as well as its gates. ii Cleansing of the temple: Nehemiah threw him out Tobiah a foreigner who was living in the temple quarters. iii Reinstatement of the Levites and other temple workers. Levites, and musicians had left the temple duties to work in their farms to earn a livelihood. They were supposed to work in the temple and be supported by member contributions. Nehemiah organised Jews to make offerings and tithes to support temple workers. With these contributions, Nehemiah reinstated and redeployed Levites, priests, musicians and other temple workers. iv Reform of the Sabbath observance. The Israelites were told by the Lord to work for 6 days and rest on the Sabbath day. The Jews started working on the Sabbath day. The merchants camped outside waiting for the reopening of the gates of the temple to do business. When Nehemiah started rebuilding Jerusalem, he ordered closure of the gates of Jerusalem from the eve of Sabbath to the end of the Sabbath. v Separations from foreigners (Neh.13: 23 30). It was against Gods law to marry foreigners. Nehemiah cursed the men who had married foreign wives. He beat Jews, pulled their hair and forced them to take oaths that neither they, nor their sons nor daughters shall intermarry. vi Purification of priesthood and the office of the Levites. Nehemiah cleansed the priesthood. He sent away Eliashib, a grandson of the High Priest Joshua, because he had given Tobiah a foreigner, a room in the temple. b. Comparing teachings of Nehemiah and St. Lukes Gospel i Nehemiah lived a prayerful life while St. Lukes gospel emphasizes importance of prayer. Jesus taught the role of prayer in Christianity. ii Nehemiah fasted, St. Lukes gospel records that Jesus fasted. iii Nehemiah prayed for forgiveness of sinful Jews. We see Jesus in St. Lukes gospel being a leader who prayed for the forgiveness of his enemies. iv Nehemiah cared for the needy. Jesus showed compassion to the needy and taught his followers to follow His example. v Nehemiah condemned evil so did Jesus vi Nehemiah is seen as a reformer of the Mosaic Law. In St Luke Gospel, Jesus was also a reformer. He insisted on inner holiness. vii Nehemiah cleansed the temple of traders so did Jesus. viii Nehemiah was very strict on the Sabbath observance. St. Lukes gospel teaches that Jesus is lord over Sabbath. He healed and Worked on Sabbath. ix Nehemiah was opposed to racial intermarriages, St. Luke Gospel was dedicated to Theophilus, a gentile convert x Christianity kingdom of God in St. Lukes gospel is for all, not just the Jews. xi. Nehemiah had good leadership skills and wisdom. These are demonstrated in St Luke Gospel. c. Relating Nehemiahs teachings to Christian life today i Prayers and fasting are fundamental to Christians just like they were to Nehemiah who led a prayerful life. ii Nehemiahs example teaches Christians to face all forms of opposition with courage, wisdom, and firmness iii The good leadership qualities of Nehemiah are relevant to Christians and they are to be emulated. iv Nehemiah cared for the needy. Christians should learn to give spiritual food, physical food and clothing to the needy, orphans, widows. v As Nehemiah renewed the covenant, Christians should seek spiritual renewal publicly and privately. They should seek for communal as well as individual forgiveness. vi Nehemiah cleansing the temple and organised an inventory for temple contributions, offerings and tithes. He also appointed key people to look after temple contributions and pay Levites and priests. Christians should learn to use the church buildings and contributions rightly vii Nehemiah was guided by the Law of Moses and land just like Christians are guided by the scriptures (Bible) and the law of the nation. The Bible is the source and basis of Christian principles. Revision questions 1. Describe the political background of Nehemiah 2. Describe the social background to the vocation of Nehemiah 3.

To build and to plant. There was still hope of the restoration of people
of Judah after exile. Q4. What did Jeremiah teach about t the New Covenant? The new covenant was to be written in peoples hearts. The covenant was to be made between God and the remnant community Each individual was responsible for his won sins. The new covenant was to be initiated by God. The new covenant was to last forever. It was as a result in the emergence of a new people of God or new
Israel. Q5. Why did Prophet Jeremiah condemn the way the Israelites worshipped?
They broke Gods commands e.g. the 1st and do not worship other gods
they worshipped idols.
They practiced hypocrisy i.e. they were concerned with external
religious observance while their hearts were far from God.
They forgot the saving history of God and worshipped other gods e.g.
Asherah.
They practiced syncretism i.e. they worshipped both Yahweh and
foreign Gods.
They listened to false prophets and rejected Gods prophets e.g.
Jeremiah. They even killed some.
They dishonored the sanctity of human life by offering human sacrifice. They neglected the disadvantaged (widows & orphans). They were dishonest in business and deceitful to one another. They narrowed themselves in necromancy, divination and magic. They rebelled against God by breaking the covenant relationship. Q6. Explain Jeremiahs temple sermon as recorded in Jeremiah 7:1-15 God commanded prophet Jeremiah to speak in the temple. It was a response to the people of Israel to stop understanding religion
through the practice of syncretism and immorality.
At the gate to the temple, Jeremiah proclaimed that the people of Judah
had to change their way of life and stick to the covenant they made with God.
They had to stop defiling the temple of placing idols in it. They had to stop committing social injustices and as
murderer/exploitation of the weak, orphans widows and foreigners.
The practice of human sacrifice was murder and displeasing to God. Hypocrisy was bad. The Israelites believed that the temple was secure from destruction
because of its holiness was not true.
God would destroy Israelites/Jerusalem through invasion of a foreign
nation.
If the people stopped their evil ways, God would not bring judgement
upon them.
God would destroy the temple of Jerusalem and send the people to
exile. Q7. What forms of punishment did Jeremiah prophesy that God would use on Judah?
The punishment would be in form of a foreign body that God use to
conquer Judah.
They would be attacked and their city destroyed. People would suffer and die due to their sins. The punishment would in form of drought. This would affect people
and animals.
Gods punishment would come through death, diseases and sword. Their punishment would be a defeat inflicted to them by Babylonian. The punishment would be the loss of their land to a foreign nation and Q8. Outline the content of Jeremiahs letter to exiles in Babylon (Jer. 29)
He encouraged the Israelites in Babylon to build houses and live in
them.
Plant gardens and eat their produce. Marry and increase. Pray for their rulers. Not to worship false gods. Not to be cheated by false prophets. To obey their masters. Worship one God.
Q9. Explain four symbolic acts related to judgement and punishment as demonstrated by Prophet Jeremiah
Linen waist cloth the rotten/useless linen cloth that had been hidden in
the caves and lift to rot stood for Israels state of being useless before the eyes of God. A sign that they had soiled their priesthood.
Jeremiah was asked not to marry the solitary life symbolized solitude in
exile.
Two baskets of fig fruits the bad fruits signified that the bad people
would be punished.
Wooden yoke he was asked to carry a wooden yoke and work around
with it signifying suffering in Babylon exile.
Breaking an earthly flask destruction of the temple. Visit to a potter whereby the potter destroyed a pot due to poor shape Not to comfort anybody these would be sorrow and suffering, no help
while in exile. Q10. Identify the relevance of Jeremiahs teaching to Christians life today
Christians are called to preach Gods gospel as Jeremiah did. Christians should accept suffering like Jeremiah did. They should learn to distinguish between false and true prophets. Like Jeremiah, they should condemn evil in society. They have a duty to call people to repentance as Jeremiah did. Christians should be good examples to the people by living, holy and
upright lives as Jeremiah did.
People should be able to know the nature of God through the lives of
Christians.
They should believe they are the new community as prophesied by
Jeremiah in the new covenant. Q11. In what ways is the prophetic mission of Jeremiah similar to that of Jesus?
Both were rejected by their own relatives and communities. Both experienced opposition from political and religious authorities. Both prophesied the destruction of the temple. Both lamented over the stubbornness of the people of Jerusalem. Both predicted divine judgement and punishment in Israel. Jeremiah predicted the new covenant that is fulfilled by Jesus. Prophet Nehemiah Qn 1. Describe the political background of Nehemiah He worked during the Babylonian exile which lasted between 589- 538
BC
During his vacation, Israelites were oppressed politically The Israelites hoped that God would soon liberate them fro this bondage In 538 BC the Babylonians were conquered by Cyrus the great king of
Persia In 538 BC king Cyrus allowed Israelites to return to Judah King Cyrus gave the Israelites a decree to rebuild the temple of
Jerusalem
In 538BC the first exile under Zebu Babel Joshua the priest departed from Babylon and started to rebuild alters of
God
Under the guidance of prophets Haggai and Zachariah the temple was
rebuilt and dedicated
The second exile arrived under prophet Ezra; after king Artaxerxes
authorized Ezra to re establish Israelites religious and moral expectations of the Mosaic Law. Nehemiah was a servant the king Artaxerxes palace. The king
authorized him to go and rebuild the walls of Jerusalem
Amidst all opposition from Samaritan, Nehemiah accomplished the
reconstruction of the walls of Jerusalem in 52 days. He then dedicated the walls to God.
This restored the sense of political pride in Israel. However the
Israelites remained subjected to the Persians and continued to pay tribute. The Persians were later overthrown by Romans who ruled the entire region until the time of the birth of Jesus Qn 2. Describe the social background to the vacation of Nehemiah
Israelites men married foreign women Children spoke different languages from their mothers Hebrew language almost became extinct Nehemiah condemned mixed marriages and even banned them Exiles who returned home were humiliated by foreigners who partially The Samaritans threatened Nehemiahs life as the rebuilt walls of

religious lives
The exiles became the period of purification They returned with a new zeal to worship God; they rebuilt the altar
under Zerubbabel for offering burnt offerings to God
The returnees built the temple of Jerusalem under Haggai and Zachariah
and dedicated to god by Ezra
Nehemiah embarked on rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem amidst
opposition in 52 days the wall was complete. Consequently, Jerusalem once more became the centre of worship for Israel. Idolatry was not allowed again in Israel after the exile.
The temple of Jerusalem was dedicated to Yahweh. The Israelites
renewed their covenant with God under prophet and priest Ezra. Nehemiah carried out various religious reforms Qn 4. Describe occasions when Nehemiah prayed
When he heard about the suffering of his fellow Jews back in Judah When he learned about the state of ruin of Jerusalem and king Atarterxes to request him to allow him go back to Judah

Check out movies about the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ but note that your study according to the syllabus is based on St. Lukes gospel. FORM FOUR CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN LIVING Form four work deals with social issues in society. We shall compare the issues in the following communities The Traditional African Society Christian community and the contemporary one. By the end of it the student should be able to understand the meaning of life and live to its fullest. TOPIC ONE. INTRODUCTION TO CHRISTIAN ETHICS Instructions. Form four work covers contemporary issues in a Christians life. You are advised to read newspapers, listen to radio news, watch television news and current affairs and any other relevant news source. Work in twos. Give yourself topics to study and then give a presentation to your partner or colearner. Learning outcomes. After reading and discussing Christian ethics, you should be able to: a. Explain the meaning of Christians ethics b. Explore the basics of Christians ethics a. Christian ethics. The word ethics comes from a Greek term Ethikos which means custom, or conduct. Ethics are moral principles, which influence a persons behaviour. Ethics are defined as the systematic study of human actions and behaviour. We use ethics to judge, determine and assess the right and wrong of human behaviour. Morals refer to human character, which is the inclination to behave in oneway or another. Ethics is the study of morals and they determine and influence personal and societal behaviour. Christian ethics is the study of human conduct or behaviour from a Christian point of view. b. Basis of Christian ethics. Sources of Christians ethics: - 1. The bible, teachings of Jesus Christ 2. Human reason and experience 3. Natural law 4. The Christian community the church 5. Situation ethics 6. Authoritative Christian literature based on the bible 7. Gods revelation through prophets i. Human reason. These are internal thoughts that guide us when we are making decisions and taking actions. We use our minds and thoughts when confronted by situations. They also rely on internal thoughts in their life experiences. Internal guiding thoughts have many parts. One is our Conscience. This is our inner self that tells us and lets us know what is right and wrong. There are four types of consciences; doubtful conscience, sensitive conscience, certain conscience and perplexed conscience. For a Christian, rights and wrongs are in the Bible. God gave the Law of Moses to Israelites. Jesus came and explained the Old Testament and taught new scriptures in the New Testament. These teachings, which we have covered from Form one to three, explain very clearly what is right and wrong. When doubtful of the morality of an action, Christian consults the Bible to know if a decision is right or wrong. ii. Human Experiences: these are internal and external guides
When confronted by situations, Christians use their minds i.e. human
reason and their life experiences in making decisions.
They rely on internal guides, (Human reason) and experience (external
guides) Internal guides (i) Conscience: Mind, aspect of knowing right or wrong. When right, theres approval when wrong it registers guilt. When doubtful of the morality of an action we should not do it If conscience is perplexed then make us decision. A decision should be based on a certain conscience. Types of conscience - Doubtful conscience - Sensitive conscience - Certain conscience - Perplexed conscience 2. One can also make decisions based on knowledge and free will To make a decision one should have - Facts about the act, its aims, circumstances. - One should be free to perform A decision ought to be thoughtful 3. Intuition: inner feeling, insight Its an internal moral sense to do good or avoid evil. Intuition is important in situations that require quick and immediate that requires quick and immediate action. 4. Feelings Feelings are subjective e.g. it feels good to do so this, hence will do it can be dangerous to make decisions purely based on feelings especially in marriage friendship etc. Eternal guides Experience Guides here include authoritative persons such as parents, teachers, police, civil leaders philosophers, and religious leaders. Rules from secular, religions, and African traditional culture are part of external guides. The bible The bible, quoted in the text but now out of text guides Christian behaviour. God communicates to his people through the Bible. The Bible offers answers to questions in relation to the life of a Christian. Today, there are ethical issues not found in the bible e.g. HIV / AIDS, sexual and reproductive health rights, contraceptives, abortion, globalization, cloning, environmental degradation, genetically modified foods, terrorism, international trade etc. this gives reason and other sources / factors are basis of Christian ethics in addition to the bible. Moral principles in the bible - They are mostly found in the teachings of Jesus and the ten commandments, sermon on the mountain - Christians are also encouraged to have Faith - The virtues encouraged include generosity, love, kindness, faithfulness, patience, humility, peace, mercy, loyalty etc. Christian community church Church leadership can make decisions, which touch on their followers. They guide people on ethical issues e.g. politics, land, justice, abortion, contraception etc. Church organizations give rules on those conduct of their members. Natural law - The awareness that one has to choose good and avoid evil - If one studies human nature and reflects upon it he/she will discover natural laws of human behaviour - Natural law, natural rights such as right to education, life own property many etc. are incorporated into the constitution of any nation. - The constitution then guides the behaviour of list citizens; Christians being citizens of a country are guided in their behaviour by the constitution. Situation ethics One should reason out the rightness or wrongness of an act. The rightness or wrongness of an act depends on its uniqueness, the circumstances - Christians are warned against making decisions based on circumstances or the situation e.g. a pregnant student seeking abortion as the option so as to continue with education. Gods revelation God reveals himself to people through prophets, natural events, the law, dreams and visions. Through such ways God guides Christian on how they should approach certain issues. Gods revelation does not contradict with the bible. Revision questions 1. What is the meaning of Christian ethics? 2. What is the basis or source or foundation of Christian ethics? 3. List the basic life skills that one needs to be able to lead a better life TOPIC TWO: CHRISTIAN APPROACHES TO HUMAN SEXUALITY, MARRIAGE AND FAMILY INTRODUCTION Christian approaches refer to how Christians view and handle issues of human sexuality, marriage and the family in accordance with Christians ethics. Through marriage, the family is formed. LESSON ONE: HUMAN SEXUALITY Learning Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should be able to: a Define human sexuality, marriage, and family b Explain the Christian teaching of human sexuality c Assess the traditional African understanding of human sexuality d Determine gender roles in traditional African home e Explain Christians teachings about male and female relationships f Explain and appreciate Christian teaching on responsible sexual behaviour g Explain Christian teaching on irresponsible sexual behaviour and their consequences a. Human sexuality. This is a sacred gift from God. It was given to Adam and Eve. Human sexuality is that which makes us male or female. It is our biological or physiological differences associated with the state of being male or female. It is part of our biological make up. Males and female have different body structures, features, appearances and biological characteristics. In terms of physical strength more men are stronger than females. Besides the biological make up, we have an emotional side, which includes our attitudes, and feelings. Females are said to be more emotional, and talkative than males. Human sexuality is also in our brain and mind and it is what makes us human beings. If you look at animals they also have different physiological features based on sexual differences. b. Christian teaching on human sexuality. Males and females are Gods creation. Men and women were created for many reasons. These are (1) to be fruitful and to multiply; and (2) for companionship. In Genesis we learn that men and women share the image of God because God intended man and woman to play complementary roles and both are equal before God. Sex in marriage is a sign of love and it is sacred. In marriage man / and woman become one flesh. Both of them have the ability to control their sexual desires. Christian teaching forbids: sex before marriage, adultery or unfaithfulness, and other unnatural sexual behaviours like lesbianism, homosexuality or being gay, and incest. God created human body and it is to be kept holy. Chastity is encouraged while unfaithfulness in marriage is discouraged. Husbands / wives are to respect one another and give to each other in mutual love. c. Traditional African understanding of human sexuality. Human sexuality is highly valued in traditional African communities. It is understood in terms of marriage and parenthood. Procreation was the sole purpose of sex. Sex was to be practiced in marriage and it was regarded as another sacred duty. Adultery was discouraged and offenders punished. Irresponsible sexual relationships were forbidden. Virginity before marriage was highly valued. If a girl lost her virginity before marriage, she was treated with scorn and punishment. If a boy impregnating a girl, he was fined. In traditional African society it was a taboo to discuss openly sex matters. Grandparents taught sex education to their grandchildren. Sex education was taught during initiation stages. Free mixing of girls and boys was not allowed except under supervision. Girls were married off immediately after initiation to avoid temptation of engaging in pre-marital sex. To reinforce self discipline in relationships between the opposite sexes the African traditional society instilled the fear of supernatural curses through myths, taboos and rules. Marital status. Husbands and wives were expected to relate to each other, their parents, and in laws according to the community customs. Conflicts between a husband and a wife were resolved through intervention of relatives. d. Gender roles. There are specific chores and duties for either male or female in African traditional societies. Roles were therefore according to gender. Boys went hunting, herding, while girls fetched firewood, and helped in cooking. At an early age, girls and boys would mix freely as they played together. Mature boys and girls however, were restricted from mixing freely without supervision by elders. But there was gender identification. The boys identified with their fathers and other male adults, while girls identified themselves with their mother and other female adults. Education. Children belonged to the community and not just to their biological parents. At the adolescent stage; 13 18 years education was given to the adolescents and intensified at initiation stage. Boys and girls were taught traditional rules, and secrets of the society during initiation. Learning was informal. Knowledge was communicated through songs, stories and riddles among other forms of presentations. All adults acted as parents to the young ones. Socialisation. Men were socialized to be superior, while women were socialized to accept their subordinate position and role. Everyone knew and accepted what he/she was culturally supposed to do. Division of labour was based on sex. In the African communities, despite their differences, there were many common customary roles, rules, regulations, taboos and beliefs that governed the practices related to male female relationships from early childhood to old age. These traditional African practices relating to male female relationships existed at various levels. In all of them, man held superior positions when compared to those of women. Age. Old women and men were accorded respect. They were consulted for advice and counsel. Kinship system was emphasized. e. Christian teaching on male- female relationships. We learn that the husband is the head of the house and should love his wife like Christ loved the church. Once a wife is loved, she should submit to her husband. We also learn that both male and female are equal and co creators with God. Adam and Eve were created to complement each other. Likewise men and women should love each other. Jesus taught that each man should have one wife and vice versa. Once married, the husbands body belongs to the wife and hers belong to him. If that is the case, wife and husband should avoid immorality. Males and females are to relate freely. But the youth are to avoid the passions of youth. These are sexual sins. There are no specific chores or duties for either male or female. Relationship between sexes should be governed by love, chastity, respect, self-control, and self- discipline. Parents are to love their children, while children are to obey and honor their parents. Parents are asked to bring up their children in a Godly way. LESSON TWO. CHRISTIAN TEACHING ABOUT HUMAN SEXUALITY Lesson Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. Outline Christian teaching on responsible sexual behaviour b. Analyse Christian teaching on irresponsible sexual behaviour c. Discuss effects and consequences of irresponsible sexual behaviour d. Give examples of the effects of irresponsible sexual behaviour Sexual behaviour is part of human behaviour. The Bible gives principles of sexual behaviour in the Ten Commandments. a. Christian teaching on responsible human sexuality. Christianity teaches us about responsible sexual behaviour. Being responsible means that one is exercising self control or self-discipline in matters of sexual behaviour. Self-discipline is necessary when we have a relationship with the opposite sex (Read, 1 Cor.7: 9 1 Peter 5:8). It is called responsible sexual behaviour, which is obedience to Gods commands. Christians promote healthy social relationship between boys and girls, men and women, and husbands and wives. Responsible sex is between male and female. Sexual intercourse is allowed only between married couples (1 Cor.7: 3 5). Married couples are obliged to be sexually faithful to one another (Heb.13: 4) adultery is condemned (exodus 25:14). Relationship between a husband / wife should be one of respect faithfulness, love, care, mercy, submission, tolerance, and forgiveness b. Christian teaching on irresponsible sexual behaviour. There are many irresponsible sexual behaviours. They include among others all acts and forms of: perversion, misuse, and abuse of sex, incest, rape, fornication, adultery, homosexuality, lesbianism or gay, prostitution, concubine, masturbation, bestiality and child marriages among others. These irresponsible sexual behaviours are against Gods will for humanity. Christians are to shun irresponsible sexual behaviour. This is because their bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit. Thus whatever Christians do with their bodies, it should be for the glory of God. Let us now discuss in brief some of the irresponsible sexual behaviour; beginning with (i) Incest, which is a sexual relationship between people who are closely related by blood. For example, sex between a brother/sister, father / daughter. Incest is condemned in the Bible. It was punishable by death in the Old Testament. Read Leviticus 18:6 8. ii) Rape. Rape cannot be justified and it is condemned in The Bible. Rape is an act of forcing another person to have sexual intercourse without his or her consent. It is sexual violence and a crime against humanity. It is also a denial, and a violation of human rights of the victims who are sexually assaulted. Victims of rape include boys, men, girls, women, and babies especially girls. Rape is an expression of hatred toward the opposite sex. In traditional African society rape was abhorred and culprits were punished by death. In Kenya rape is punishable by 20 years imprisonment. Indecent assaults or sexual abuses such as touching a person of the opposite sex without their permission or use of vulgar language are both punishable by up to 5 years imprisonment. iii. Fornication. This is consensual sexual intercourse between unmarried people. It is condemned by both African and Christian teachings and punishment in African traditional society was by either payment of fines, stoning, and ritual cleansing. In the Old Testament, men were forced to marry the girl. Jesus said that fornication was due to peoples evil thoughts. Abstinence for the youth is encouraged and preached. Why do the youth engage in pre marital sex? There are several reasons. Some of them are: sexual curiosity, proving manhood, human weakness, lack of self control, testing fertility, fear of being jilted / rejected; commercial sex for money; copying acts in the print and electronic media. Others reasons are frustrations, drug abuse, bribe to get a job, and permissiveness in the society. iv. Adultery is committed by adults who have extra marital affairs; between married partner and another party. Adultery is having sex outside marriage with a person with whom one is not married to. Adultery is caused by lack of self control, sexual dissatisfaction, long periods of wife and husband separation, sexual dysfunction and vengeance by an initially faithful spouse who wants to be even with the unfaithful spouse. v. Prostitution. This is the practice of giving sexual pleasure for money or other material benefits. A prostitute can either be male or female. Prostitutes are referred to as commercial sex workers. Why is there prostitution? There are factors leading to prostitution. These are economic reasons such as unemployment, poverty, rejection of a girl at home, drug abuse, stress, anger, anxiety, frustrations in the family and pornography. The church condemns prostitution because it defiles the body, which is a temple of the Holy Spirit. Its sexual immorality. Read Gal 5: 19 21. vi. Homosexuality/ Gay/ Lesbianism. This is sex between people of the same sex for example; man and man (homosexuality), woman and woman (lesbianism). Homosexuality is a common practice in modern world. It is also a church problem. The Anglican Church in USA, and Canada have accepted homosexuality. The Anglican Church has gay bishops. African Anglican churches are opposing this practice. What makes people prefer sex with the same sex? The Christian view is that homosexuality is a sign of a lack of Christian moral values. It may also be due to confinement in a prison and permissiveness in society. If it is allowed to continue, it shall disintegrate traditional African values. Because of its threat to Gods people, the Church condemns homosexuality. Other reasons for condemning it is because (1) God created a male and a female. Read, Genesis 1:28. Two, sex is sacred. Homosexuality is an unnatural relationship, which lowers human dignity. It does not provide sexual fulfillment (as traditionally). Homosexuality is illegal in Kenya. vii. Sexually transmitted Diseases (STDs). There are many diseases passed from one person to the other through sex. These are gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes genitalis is, hepatitis B, clamydia, trichonomiasis, HIV/AIDS. Lets discuss them one by one. HIV / AIDS. This is human immune deficiency virus (HIV) that causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) condition. Syndrome refers to many symptoms. HIV is transmitted largely through sex with an infected partner; through blood transfusion; sharing sharp objects with infected persons; and from an infected mother to the unborn child. The HIV virus destroys the white blood cells, and weakens the body s immune system. When the body is weak, it is not able to fight, and defend itself against infections. Persons with the virus are vulnerable and susceptible to opportunistic infections. The signs / symptoms of AIDS are manifestations of symptoms of the opportunistic infections. Some symptoms include persistent coughs, loss of weight, oral thrush, loss of appetite, and diarrhoea. Churches encourage Christians to be compassionate to HIV/AIDS affected people, and to support the infected and the affected individuals like the orphans, widows, and widowers. It also teaches against sexual immorality and against all forms of discrimination. Gonorrhea is caused by a bacterium called Neisseria gonorrhea. Its symptoms appear a4 days after infection. Its symptoms are burning sensation when passing urine; pain or discomfort in the genitals; sticky discharge or pus in the vagina or through the urethra. The good news is that Gonorrhea is curable if treated early. Syphilis. Primary syphilis may show up in the form of a sore or a wound in the genitals a few days after infection. The wound heals by itself without treatment after some time. Syphilis infection may take several years about 7 years before its symptoms re appear. The symptoms of syphilis are a painless sore or pimple on the mans penis or womans vulva; and swelling of the glands in the groin. Other symptoms, which may appear later, are skin rashes, and sores either in the face armpits, under breasts, mouth or throat. Herpes genital is a sexual disease caused by a virus. It creates wounds in the genitals. A pregnant woman can transmit the infection to her newborn baby during delivery. This disease can be controlled although there is not an effective treatment. Hepatitis B virus causes Hepatitis B. It is transmitted through sex, injections by unsterilized needles and contact with contaminated blood. The infection does not show on the genitals. The signs and symptoms of Hepatitis B include yellowness of the eyes (jaundice) due to liver damage and pain around the upper abdomen. c. The effects of irresponsible sexual behaviour. There are many effects of irresponsible sexual behaviour. They include among others HIV / AIDS, sexually transmitted infections (STI), abortion; family separations and divorces, deaths, unplanned pregnancies; children living in the streets; school drop outs and psychological problems. i. Effects of incest. These are many. One, incest undermines the healthy relationships between members of a family as it brings shame and guilt among the parties involved. Two, incest destroys relationships within the family and can lead to breaking up of a marriage. Three, incest destroys self-esteem, self respect, and dignity of the victim. We find that abused boys and girls end up having problems when trying to establish healthy relationship with members of the opposite sex. Four, incest can lead to pregnancy, and abortion. And as you have read in the newspapers, it can lead to infections with sexually transmitted diseases (S.T.I.s) and HIV / AIDS. As I write, a father was jailed for life for raping his daughter and infecting her with HIV/AIDS virus. ii. Effects of Rape. This crime has very serious consequences and harmful effects on the victim. Rape may result in pregnancy and can led to physical, psychological, social, and spiritual side effects. The victim may suffer (1) serious physical injuries and (2) may contract both the STIs, and HIV / AIDs. The victim is traumatized, and ashamed of self. The victim suffers from guilt, loneliness, humiliation, posttraumatic stress disorders, and depression among others psychological manifestations. Young rape victims in particular may loose trust in the opposite sex. All these sufferings can lead to suicide and death. iii. Effects of Fornication. Some of these are having children out of wedlock; feelings of distrust, guilt, and hurt; contracting STIs and HIV/AIDS; loss of self-respect; early and forced marriage and abortion. iv. Effects of Adultery. Christians teach against adultery because it is against Gods commandments and can lead to divorce, abortion, STI, HIV/AIDS, domestic violence, murder (death) and psychological problems. v. Effects of Prostitution are many. It can lead to break up of marriage, and family. It lowers a persons dignity and can lead to unplanned pregnancies, school dropouts; infections such as STIs and HIV /AIDS and improper use of family resources. vi. Effects of homosexuality. It is a threat to procreation. It promotes loose short-term informal relationships and therefore promotes HIV / AIDS. Homosexual couples are prone to HIV/AIDS infections because of having many partners; although this is changing in USA where homosexual couples are being married in churches. vii. Effects of Sexually transmitted diseases HIV / AIDS effects are numerous. They include recurrent illness due to opportunistic infections. There is also stigmatization. Some individuals have feelings of guilt, anger, denial and depression. The sick persons have to look for extra finances to care for their health. They have the burden for medications, and special diet. HIV/AIDs has no cure and leads to death like many other diseases. Parents die and leave their children as orphans. Gonorrhea effects are many. The disease damages a womans fallopian tubes leading to infertility; and a mans epidydymis leading to sterility. An infected expectant mother can infect her newborn baby with gonorrhea. The disease may affect the eyes of the unborn child causing blindness. Gonorrhea can also cause inflammation of joints, the heart and liver. Effects of Syphilis are damage to the heart, brain and the nervous system. This disease can lead to madness and death of the victim. If a child is infected while in the womb, or during birth, the brain maybe damaged. The child may have either physical deformities or the infected mother may give stillbirths. Effects Herpes genitals. Infection can cause severe brain damage; cancer of the neck of the womb. If a woman is pregnant, the disease can cause death of the baby. The wounds and sores exposes the sick person to HIV /AIDS infections. Effects of Hepatitis B. This disease damages the liver and may lead to death of the infected person. It has a vaccine, but not treatment. viii. Other consequences of irresponsible sexual behaviours These are death, unplanned pregnancies, children living in the streets, school dropouts and psychological problems related to irresponsible sexual behaviour. These include among others: stress, depression, self pity, withdrawal, aggressiveness, and violence. Stress is the response of the body and mind to any situation that exerts pressure or makes demands on a person. The intensity or pressure experienced determines the level of stress. Some of the signs of stress are: anxiety, worry, drop in performance, chest pains, mood swings, rebellion, ulcers, heart palpitations, fatigue and guilt feelings. Solutions. To avoid stress, it is suggested that individuals should accept that one is stressed; identify sources of stress, rest, exercise, listening to therapeutic music and talk to a counselor. Depression. This is an acute mental disorder. It is also a state of hopelessness and low spirits. Depression can be mild or severe. It has physical, emotional and behavioural signs and symptoms. Let me caution you that it is only a medical doctor who can know if one has a depression or not. We are told by doctors that signs of a depression are: persistent headaches and chest pains; loss of appetite; too much appetite; loss of memory; insomnia i.e. lack of sleep; weight loss or gain; nervousness and mood swings; low self-confidence; suicidal tendencies and self-pity. Other signs and symptoms are loss of libido (sexual desire); poor performance in school and in work places; hopelessness; loss of interest in ones activities; hypertension and high blood pressure d. Irresponsible social and human behaviour. There are social and human behaviours that are contrary to Christian life. These unacceptable behaviours are abortion, and divorce. Abortion is termination of pregnancy before the foetus is capable of independent life. There are two types of abortions. One is spontaneous abortion or miscarriage. The other is induced abortion, which is deliberate and illegal in Kenya. Induced abortion has been debated in Kenya. The main question is should abortion be legalized or not. This is because abortion is legal in some European countries. Why do mothers seeking abortion? There are many reasons, which are known only to mothers. These are one, pregnancy due to rape and incest. Two, if the mother believes that the unborn child will be a burden. This may be because the baby is conceived outside wedlock and the mother lacks economic resources to take care of the baby. Another reason maybe that the mother is in school, and she cannot look after the baby and continue with her education. Three, medical personnel may abort a deformed foetus or in order to save the life of the mother if it is in danger. Christians view of abortion as murder (Exodus20: 13). This is because abortion interferes with the mothers body, and destroys the baby. Christian view is that the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. God is the giver of life and He alone has the right to take it away. Abortion carries with it stigma and the effects mentioned above make Christians condemn abortion. e. Effects of irresponsible social and human behaviour. Effects of abortion are infertility, ectopic pregnancy, destruction of a womans body parts; fetal malformation; risk of the mother bleeding to death and destruction of uterus. Other effects are that the mother may experience in future still births, miscarriages, risk of barrenness; failed abortions leading to deformed babies and psychological problems that we have discussed. These are stress and depression. Revision questions. 1. Explain the T.A. understanding of human sexuality 2. Explain Christian attitudes towards human sexuality 3.

Explain celibacy as an alternative to marriage a. Definition of marriage. Marriage is a binding legal union between a man and a woman who agree to have a lasting relationship as husband / wife. Marriage partners choose each other. In some cases, senior member of the family and church influence the choice of a marriage partner. When marrying partners agree to marry, they are joined in church and they become husband and wife. Marriage is thus a covenant in which the partners give themselves to one another. Marriage involves other members of the community hence it is a social and community affair. Marriage is a permanent union. Marriage is a community requirement in which everyone in the community participates. Each person is expected to undergo marriage because it is a rite of passage. Marriage gives a person, a high social status and prestige in the community. Marriage is also a covenant between a man and a woman that should not be broken. Two people are joined in marriage in order to procreate and perpetuate the community. Once married, a couple is allowed to have sexual relationship, and companionship. Marriage is an expression of and fulfillment of mutual love and comfort. It enhance unity; social prestige, and respect in society. Purpose of marriage is sexual fulfillment; cultural and social requirement; obligation to build a family; and procreation although children are a gift from God. Forms of marriages There are many forms of marriages. There is a marriage ceremony organised as a symbol or mark of the union between a man and a woman. These marriages ceremonies are either civil, or religious. The main religious ceremonies are Christian, Islamic, Hindu, and Sikh among others. We also have African customary ceremonies many of which are polygamous. Christianity does not allow polygamous marriage. Secular approaches to marriage. In the modern world, some people choose not to marry for personal reasons. Some people have children without getting married while others opt to have a marriage without children. Husband and wife are equal. Monogamy is practiced for economic reasons. In some families women are the heads of the family. Choosing a partner is an individual act and not communal. In marriage traditional qualities of a good wife such as industrious, honesty, and hospitality are not considered. The modern society values external beauty, financial status and social status. As a result, there is a high rate of marriage, separation, and divorce. At times young people fail to be married in church. There is no formalization of marriages. These marriages are called Come-we-stay arrangements. Gender issues in marriage. The wife is subordinate to the husband but had rights. Marriage did not end with death of the husband. The wife was inherited by one of her husbands brother. This is widow inheritance / Levirate marriage. She could also refuse to be inherited but remained married to that man even in death. The wife could not marry outside the family because of dowry. There was dowry payment to parents. If a wife died, the man would marry the sister of his dead wife. This is surrogate marriage. Those who did not marry were considered lesser humans. Young people were prepared for marriage during initiation, which was witnessed in a public ceremony. During marriage, couple makes vows to each other. The ancestors are invoked to bless the marriage. Factors that lead to a stable, healthy and successful marriage People are different and they understand their roles differently. Here am giving you a few suggestions. Discuss with your study companions and come up with other suggestions. One important factor is mutual responsibility by the couple. This occurs if there is mutual consultation with each other in decision-making. Two is forgiveness of each other. Three is good treatment of each other especially with equal respect. Four is sharing scriptures together. Five is giving love and respecting each other. Six is having a faithful sexual relationship and lastly being open and honest. Seven is African traditional qualities of a good wife who is described as: hardworking, fertile, morally upright, generous, kind, obedient, humble, clean, beautiful, polite, warm hearted and hospitable. Eight are the qualities of a good husband, which are described as: being able to provide good leadership in the family. Other qualities are being aggressive, wise, brave, courageous, responsible and good property manager. b. Christian Teaching about Marriage. Christians teach that marriage is sacred and that it is a divine institution, which is ordained God. God started it when he created Adam and Eve. Marriage should therefore be monogamous and permanent as God protects marriages. The woman should submit to the husband who is told to love the wife as Christ loved the church. Church teaches respect of each other. Marriage is complete even without children as it is between a male and a female. Marriage is not obligatory and it ends when one partner dies. Christians preparation and approach to marriage Christians organise youth seminars, and rallies to teach the youth how to choose marriage partners and how to treat wife / husbands; care for the children; behave towards in laws; acquire wealth (men); and head a family. Youth are taught to avoid sexual intimacy before marriage. Those intending to marry are encouraged to go for pre marital counselling. During counselling, they are informed that love is the most important bond of unity in marriage. Church encourages partners to go for HIV /AIDs test before marriage. Marriage ceremony is conducted in church Choice of a marriage partner There are many ways of identifying a marriage partner. One is arrangement by parents. If not one can make an individual decision and choose a wife or husband. Two is through an intermediary or third party. In African traditional polygamous marriages, the first wife identified a wife for her husband. Girls would be given out to a chief as a gift c. Courtship in African Traditional society (A.T.S). Courtship varied from community to community. Courtship is the period between engagement and wedding ceremony. During courtship premarital sex is forbidden. Girls and boys dressed with bracelets and rings. Courtship was important in A.T.S. This was because the man and woman who were girls and boys got to know each other better before marriage. It was a period when girls/boys were instructed in family life education. It was also a period for linking the two marrying families. The couple had time to learn about one anothers character, and know their families. It is a symbol (sign) of the girls presence in her home (maternal home). She continues to live with her own people. The families and clan had an opportunity to check if the marrying couple was related and if their clans were acceptable to the parents. Courtship gives time to the two families to negotiate and pay the bride wealth or dowry. Bridal Wealth, dowry, bride price are all expressions of partnership. The family of the man pays dowry to the family of the woman. Some churches disregard bride wealth, while others encourage it. Dowry is paid in different forms. The girls family decides what it wants. Will it be livestock (poultry, pigs, camels, cows, goats, sheep), beer, grain, jewellery and clothes among others. Importance of dowry. It acts as a compensation for the girls labour and seals the marriage covenant. It is a public expression of appreciation for the coming of a new wife/mother into the mans family. It promotes friendship and cements relationship between families. It shows commitment and seriousness of the future husband. After dowry payment, the woman belongs to her husband. A ceremony is carried out depending on the community. Bride price payment is accompanied by marriage ceremonies. Lastly dowry helps in maintaining peace Traditional African approaches to marriage preparation. Polygamy is one husband, married to many wives. Polygamy is allowed by the African traditional religion because it occurs if the first wife is barren; ensures that all women have husbands; prevents infertility; provides extra labour in farms. A polygamous man has a higher status because many wives symbolize wealth. Children are important in a marriage because they promote social status of their parents. They cement a bond of unity between husband / wife. They are a source of labour, and wealth. They are heirs to the family wealth They provide security to the family. Divorce is legal dissolution of marriage. Christians allow divorce because of specific grounds. Divorce was rare in African traditional societies. Divorce is granted under circumstances of: adultery, witchcraft, laziness, cruelty and disrespect of wife. In the contemporary society, divorce is sought after or allowed because of: unfaithfulness in marriage or adultery; domestic violence; misuse of family resources; childlessness; in- law interference and alcohol abuse. Legal reasons for divorce According to the laws of Kenya, divorce is allowed under the following reasons; adultery; if a man deserts his wife for more than 3 years; if a partner becomes insane; and domestic violence for example, physical, and psychological torture. Christian teaching about divorce. Christians discourage divorce because marriage is a permanent status. There is no room for divorce. Church discourages divorce because of its adverse effects. Some denominations allow divorce if there is adultery. God hates divorce. Married couples should remain faithful to each other Effects of divorce are strained relationships, children suffering psychologically, and experiences of rejection. A divorcee faces social stigma, rejection, and isolation. If parents separate, they create single parent families. These families suffer from economic hardships and feelings of failure and inadequacy. e. Celibacy as an alternative to marriage. Celibacy is a Latin word Coelebes meaning bachelor. Why do some people fail to marry? There are many reasons. Some of these are to pursue education leading to delayed marriage; and career demands (workaholic). Other people are discouraged by examples of failed marriages. Other reasons maybe economic independence, poor health, HIV /AIDS, mental illness; parental interference and disappointment from past failed relationships. This happens if parents do not approve a partner. Revision questions 1.

As a result, there are several types and practices of the family. In this lesson, we shall discuss the traditional family as it is practiced in the Bible, the traditional African societies and some Christian families. Learning Outcomes. By the end of the topic, the learner should be able to a Explain types of families in society b Analyse traditional African family values and practices c Explain Christians family values and practices d Discuss problems related to family life today e Compare approaches to family by Christians and traditional African society f. Discuss responsible parenthood The family. What is a family? Family is the basic social unit of human society. This basic unit is extended to include relatives bound together by blood, marriage, friendship, and adoption. They are all members of the family. In Kenya, there are many types of families. a. Types of families i. Nuclear family is parents and their children. .It is father, mother, and children. There is an increase of monogamous families or nuclear because of urbanization as rural youth come to towns in search of white-collar jobs. Migration to cities by people of different tribes has led to pluralism. Education, high cost of living have led to the death of the African culture, which required men and women to marry many partners to produce many children to defend their tribe. Advantages of nuclear families are many. One, the man is able to give undivided attention to one wife and children. Two, there is sharing of mutual love, and peace in the home. Three it is economical to manage one family. Four there is little competition for attention, less strife, quarrels and stress. Five, it is easier to monitor the behaviour of a few children. ii. Polygamous family Father, mothers, children. These type of family have disadvantages in modern Kenya. Modern society is a cash economy. Thus if a man has many wives and children, they may lack basic necessities like food, shelter, education and clothes. iii. Single parent family one parent, and children. Single parent families are created by several circumstances. One is by parents separating. Separation of parents is due to several reasons. These are for example, one partner going to another country and failing to return to his or her country and family. Two, a single family is created by divorce. Divorced parents may decide not to marry again. Three is when one parent refuses to marry. This happens when a girl gets pregnant and the boy does not marry her. Four is because of death of a spouse. The remaining parent may decide not to remarry. Five is when some mothers decide to have children without marriage. This may not be correct as there is no research to suggest it. Six is imprisonment of one partner for a long time. One parent is left looking after children because one is in jail. iv. Extended family father, mother, children, uncles, aunts, and cousins. This is the common family type in traditional African communities. v. Children led family. This happens when parents die and the 1st born takes care of brothers and sisters including cousins. vi. Grandparent headed family. The HIV/AIDs epidemic has introduced this type of family where grandparents take care of their grandchildren due to the death of both parents especially the mother due to HIV / AIDS disease. This scourge has made many children orphans. In other cases parents go for further studies abroad and leave their children with their parents. b. Traditional African family values and practices. In African societies creation of a family is through marriage, and subsequent procreation. Family is viewed as a sacred institution in African society. The African traditional family includes the dead (ancestors), the unborn children and the living. An African traditional family has obligations and duties. These were (1) offering sacrifices to ancestors, (2) pouring libations; and (3) giving the dead decent burials (4) providing basic needs to their children (5) bringing up children to be morally upright individuals. Further to this, the African traditional family is responsible for the upbringing, caring, and protection of its children. This is demonstrated by the nuclear family, which provides necessities required to meet and satisfy the economic needs of its members. The African traditional family is expected to participate in communal activities. Work in the family was divided according to age, gender and social status. Each family member worked for its basic needs as well as the welfare of the community. The African family had well-stated and practiced values There were (1) respect for family members (2) providing responsible parenthood, which is the process of bringing up children to become all round or self reliant persons (3) educating children in all aspects of life. Parents and the extended family members helped their children to develop intellectually and cognitively. The family taught children physical skills. It also gave children confidence to appreciate their physical strength. Children were taken through a rigorous physical curriculum of games such as wrestling, swimming and running to develop their physical strength. Childrens bodies were nourished thoroughly. They were served good and nutritious food, which improved their muscle strength. Children were taught social skills. They learnt how to behave towards adults, peers and grandparents. They developed social skills since parents allowed them to socialize and interact with other children, grandparents and the community. This made them grow socially, emotionally and psychologically. They had a curriculum for teaching and training in traditional African religious values, family matters, moral and social values. This teaching of children started from an early age. The teaching method used was observation and practice. Parents taught by being good role models. They were expected to model desired values and family practices. Children were taught how to relate with one another as brothers and sisters. Parents were to show tolerance to children. These values show that African parents understood their parental roles and responsibilities. These values were sometimes; exploited by the irresponsible family members or specific individuals. This exploitation encouraged dependency, leading to conflicts, competition, hatred, and jealousy. Christian parents are expected to train their children to know God; be self -disciplined, and follow the Christian way of living. Another duty is to provide basic needs to their children. Christian understanding of the family Among Christians, family is sacred and instituted by God. Read again about the Christian teachings about marriage. Role of children in the Christian family A Christian child is expected to obey parents, honor them, and respect parents. This is one of the Ten Commandments given to Moses by God. Parenting styles a) Dictatorship /authoritative / autocratic the parents is the final authority, imposes decisions b) Permissive or liberal style also referred to as Laissez faire the children do as they want c) Democratic style parents discuss with their children on family issues. This is the best style.

Twins are a form of natural cloning Theres therapeutic cloning and reproductive cloning (human cloning) Therapeutic cloning is when cells from an adult are used in creating Human cloning is illegal worldwide Genetic cells are used to treat Alzheimer, heart attack, cancer Test tube babies are different from human cloning. Test tube babies are
where the egg and sperm is fused together outside the body.
In cloning, a needle like device is used to draw out the cells from an
embryo, then preserved using chemicals, then put in a womb/uterus to grow. Some do not need a sperm cell, they use other body cells for fertilization. Reasons for advocating human cloning

vehicles
Installing silencers in generators Education people on the effects of noise pollution
Pollution caused by radiation
Mainly in developed countries
Atomic explosions e.g. Hiroshima / Nagasaki in Japan in 1945. The side effects of mutations of born children. Some children born with deformities. The radiation caused chromosome mutations. Some mutations on the cells of the parent / grandparents.
Nuclear power stations also a danger Medical equipment e.g. X ray machines when one is over exposed to
these radiations (x rays) it can lead to development of cancer. LESSON SIX: DESERTIFICATION Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson you should be able to: - 1. Define the term desertification 2.

The term Canon means Standard or guidance or rule. Translation means expression of books by words and pictures, poems and songs from one language to another. The Old Testament was originally written in Hebrew, the langua- ge of the Israelites. Then between 250 100 BC, it was translated to the Greek language. The Greek translation of the Bible was known as Septua- gint. This term refers to 70 translators. The Jews in dispersion or Diaspora used this translation. These were the Jews living outside Palestine. Between 386 420 A.D. Jerome, a great Christian Scholar, translated the entire bible from Greek into Latin, the language of the Romans. This tran- slation was called Vulgate. Christians used the Latin translation of the Bible up to the 16th century. During the reformation in the 16th Century, Christians were encouraged to use their own native languages in worship. From that time, the Bible was translated into English and German. As Christianity spread to different parts of the world, there was the need for translations of the Holy Bible into various languages. In 1804, the British formed the Foreign Bible Society, which translated the Bible into many languages. Johann Ludwig Krapf translated the New Testament into Kiswahili. This was the first Bible translation in East Africa. Since that time, the Bible Society of Kenya has translated the Bible into other languages such ----- 7 # as Kikuyu in 1951, Kikamba in 1956, Kimeru in 1964, Kalenjin in 1968, and Luhya in 1974. By 1980 the Bible had been translated into 29 Kenyan languages. To date (2010) the Bible has been translated into 42 languages of Kenya. **Translation and versions used in Kenya today ** Besides bible translation into several languages, there are many English translation versions, which are commonly used in Kenya. These are (i) King James Version (ii) Jerusalem Bible (iii) New International version (iv) English Bible (v) The Authorized Version (vi) Good News (vii) Revised Standard Version (viii) New King James Version (ix) Amplified Bible (x) The living Bible (xi) The African Bible (xii) Common Bible (xiii) Todays English Bible (xiv) American version among others. **Writing of the Bible ** By 2010, the Bible Society of Kenya had translated the Bible into 42 Kenyan languages. The need to read the Bible led to writing of Bible reading materials to teach literacy in local languages. Those who wrote the Bible used different styles, and figures of speech to make their message vivid and clear. Several literary forms were used in the writing of the Bible. These are: **a. Poetry in Psalms ** **Activity ** **a) Read Psalms and notice the poetry used by David when he wrote ** **psalms ** **b) Read Job. Notice the rhythm of the words ** **c) Turn to your English textbook the Integrated English. Read topic ** **4 on sound and pattern in poetry. ** **d) Read any Psalm and any verse from Job. What do you notice? ** **Other literary forms that are used in the Bible are: ** ----- 8 # i) Prose in Leviticus, which is a Legislative text ii) Wise sayings in Proverbs iii) Prophetic speeches by Jeremiah iv) Prayers by Nehemiah v) Love Songs, for example, the Songs of Solomon vi) Letters. Here see Pauline Epistles (Romans) vii) Gospels, for example, Marks Gospel viii) Religious events, for example, Exodus ix) Narratives, for example, Genesis x) Philosophical essays, for example, the book of Job. Here note the use of metaphors and similes in philosophical essays. **The effects of Bible translations on African languages ** **Bible translations: ** i) Increased and deepened African faith in God. ii) Led to increased literacy. After Africans acquired literacy skills, they read the Bible and improved their literacy skills. Christian missionaries established schools in order to teach literacy that helped African to read the Bible. ii) Made it easy for missionaries to spread the gospel to the African communities. iii) Increased the demand for the Bible. This led to writing of Books and setting up of printing presses in African countries. iv) Made it easy for the expansion of the church i.e. more people became Christians. v) Led to the emergence of independent churches and schools. vi) The missionaries and colonialists learnt the African languages. vii) The African converts realized that the missionaries were unfair to them. There was for example a different treatment of African by White missionaries. This was inequality of races, which was and is even now against Christian teachings. ----- 9 # viii) Helped Africans to re-discover their cultural identity. For example the use of African instruments, dressings, and practice of polygamy, which David and other kings in the Old Testament did. ix) Led to the writings and spread of African languages. The missionaries learnt local languages. x) Improved communications between missionaries and the local people because they could understand each other. xi) Increased printing of reading materials **The effects of Bible translations on Africans communities ** After the first Bible translations, there were immediate effects or influences on some communities. For example, some community leaders did not agree with the Christian teachings. Some wanted to retain aspects of their African religion. As a result, some communities who disagreed with Bible translations established their own Christian denominations in order to preach the Bible, as they understood it. This was the emergence of independent churches. Some African communities built independent schools where their children could learn how to read and write without being forced to practice all the Christian teachings. **Review questions ** 1) What is the importance of reading the Bible? 2) How is the Bible used in society today? 3) How does the Kenya Government use the Bible today? 4) Name the major divisions of the Bible in both the New Testament and the Old Testament 5) What are the effects of Bible translation on African languages? 6) Why is the Bible referred to as (a) a Library and (b) the Word of God 7) What is the meaning of the term inspiration? **Study activities ** 1. Read the Bible quotations given above. 2. Carry out role plays e.g. the sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham. ----- 10 # 3. Visit old people in your community and ask them about African religious traditional practices. **CREATION AND THE FALL OF MAN (GENESIS 1-3, 6-9, 11) ** **INTRODUCTION ** In this topic, you shall learn about creation and the fall of man.

It is orderly: 1st day God created day and night (Light and darkness) 2nd day The Heavens (sky) 3rd day The Earth, Water / Sea, Vegetation (Plants, trees, grass) 4th day Sun, Moon and Stars 5thday Birds, Sea Creatures 6th day Animals, Livestock, Man was the last creation (human beings) 7th day God rested and blessed the 7th day and made it holy. In this creation story, we see God creating things in an orderly manner, day after day until the 6th day. It was last in the first account. God created man from dust and breathed into his nostrils before anything else is mentioned. God then put man in the Garden of Eden, which He had made for him so that man could till and keep it. The garden was planted eastward in Eden. Out of the ground, God made every tree to grow. In the ----- 11 # middle of the garden, there was the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Man was given the responsibility of tilling and conserving the garden. Man was commanded to eat of every tree in the garden except the tree of knowledge of good and evil. A river flowed from the garden and then it separated into four tributaries. God saw that man should not be alone hence He made him a helper/mate; a woman from one of the mans ribs. Man was also given the responsibility of naming all the animals in the garden. There is mention of God resting after work ----- 12 # **Differences between the two creation stories ** |FIRST ACCOUNT|SECOND ACCOUNT| |---|---| |Mentions what was created on which day.

The Agikuyu, Akamba, Gusii and other Kenyan communities have stories explaining their origin. These stories give each community a sense of belonging, and identity. The stories explain the mysteries of life. These stories have common characteristics or teachings. Thus all African communities believe that God: - (i) Is the chief architect of the world (ii) Existed from the very beginning of time. (iii) Created everything out of nothing. (iv) Provides for the needs of human beings. (v) Was disobeyed by human beings who had lived in eternal bliss. This bliss came to an end when human beings disobeyed God. (vi) The African communities had different names to describe God. God was not known as God but as the Creator of everything that existed on earth and skies. He was Mumbi and Mungai to Gikuyu. He was master of the universe. The Kamba called Him Ngai wa Matu. They believed that God continues to create through human beings. **Examples of African creation stories ** 1. The Kamba believed that God created man and woman then tossed them to the earth. 2. The Bukusu say that God the creator (Were Khakaba) created the world alone. a. First God created heaven then created two assistants, Mukhaba and Murumwa. Were the God made the sun, moon, stars, a big red cock which crows whenever it thunders, the rains, the rainbow, mountains, rivers, lakes, streams and all the other things on earth. b. Created a woman for the man. c. Created plants, animals, birds and other creatures. ----- 15 # d. Creation work took six days. On the seventh day Were rested. **Activity ** Ask your parents about your community creation story. **THE TEACHINGS FROM THE BIBLICAL CREATION ** **ACCOUNTS ** I. God is responsible for all creation. He is the sole creator. Gods creation was good. Everything He created God said it was good. It was without flaws and mistakes. God is the provider. God created everything that man needs. He also created food for all animals and other creatures. God is orderly. II. Man has a special place in Gods creation. Man was made as the keeper of God creation. Man is a co-creator and keeper of Gods creation since he was made in the image and likeness of God. Man was comma- nded to work. III. A woman was made from the mans flesh. She joins man in marriage and they become one flesh. God ordains marriage. Human beings were created to socialize. IV. Sin is a result of man and woman disobedience of God. **Responsibilities given to human beings by God in the Genesis stories ** **of creation ** After creating man and then woman, God asked man to: a. Reproduce and multiply. b. Rule over the rest of His creations. c. Be in charge of the fish, birds, and all the animals. d. Cultivate the garden and guard it. e. Eat from the fruits of the garden except from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. f. Name the animals. g. Subdue the earth ----- 16 # h. Transform the creation that God has provided human beings with i. Use creation forests, rivers, mountains with responsibility and respect. j. Be a steward of Gods creation k. Engineer Gods creation by creating things from the creation l. Dominate the earth **Group work** Work in twos or threes and answer these questions. i. How does man fulfill the command to subdue and fill the earth? ii. How is man a co creator with God? **BIBLICAL TEACHING: THE FALL OF MAN, ORIGIN OF SIN ** **AND THE CONSEQUENCES ** **Introduction ** Man and woman fell from the Garden of Eden. This experience is expla- ined in genesis chapter 3 verse 4; chapter 6 verse 9 and chapter 11. In these verses, the Bible is teaching about sin, which made Adam and Eve fall. Sin is defined as iniquity, and guilt. It is to miss a mark, to transgress. Sin is a rebellion or an offence against God. Sin originated with the disobedience of Adam and Eve. They had been commanded not to eat of the fruits of the tree of knowledge of good and evil the tree in the middle of the Garden of Eden. But Adam and Eve ate the fruit after being deceived by the serpent. Man had the power to resist temptation but instead he yielded. Genesis Chapter 3 verse 6 states that man wanted to be wise and thought how wonderful it would be to become wise hence sin arises from the lack of knowledge of God, from the denial of trust of God. **The consequences of sin ** After sinning, we the human race and sinners: 1) Replaced friendship with God with fear of God. ----- 17 # 2) Lost innocence. What had been innocent and good became shameful. Adam and Eve became ashamed of their nakedness, something they had never felt before they sinned against God. 3) Lost good relationship with God. The good relationship between God and man was betrayed. Human beings were alienated from God. The Lord God sent him out of the Garden of Eden 4) Damaged the perfect relationship between man and woman. The Lord said to the woman You will have desire for your husband, yet you will be subject to him. 5) Pain became part of human experience. I will greatly multiply your pain in child bearing. 6) Man began toiling and struggling to meet his needs You will have to work hard and sweat to make the soil produce anything 7) The home of man, and the earth itself was placed under a curse. Cursed is the ground because of you. Enmity between man and wild animals emerged. 9) Man began to die. Death sentence is passed upon all men. You will return to the ground you are dust 10) Man began to hate. Man developed murderous feelings in his heart, for example Cain killed Abel, his younger brother. 11) Man changed and became prone to sin. 12) Life span of man was reduced (see Gen. 6:3) I will not allow people to live forever, they will live no longer than 120 years 13) Mans language was confused by God after the flood (read Gen.11: 7) 14) Sin led to embarrassment, mistrust, suffering, pain, pride, arrogance and death. **Summary ** Disobedience of God by Adam and Eve brought serious sin consequences to human beings. Sin brings sadness and suffering to man even today. ----- 18 # **Activity** In groups of two or three, discuss the origin and consequences of sin. **CONCEPT OF EVIL ** **Introduction ** In this lesson, we shall discuss the concept of evil as told by the traditi- onal African religion and the biblical writings. We shall study similarities and differences of evil from the two religions. **What is evil? ** In the traditional African society, evil was an offence against God, spirits and ancestors. It was also viewed as an offence against another person or community. Evil was also a misfortune that can befall an individual or a community. **What are the causes of evil? ** Many of the traditional African societies do not associate God with evil. God is not the creator of evil. Some communities believe that evil is an external power that exists on its own. Thus in the traditional African society, evil was understood or explained as something mysterious that was caused by several people and things. These were: a) Evil spirits b) Ancestral spirits due to disobedience to them c) Some animals like the chameleon are sources of evil. The Akamba believed that chameleons brought evil. Other communities believed that if an owl cries near ones homestead, it is a sign of evil. d) People with mystical powers for example magic, sorcery, and witchcraft are evils e) If a member of a community breaks a taboo by disobedience, this action may bring evil spirits. f) The spirits of the dead; cause evil; if they are not remembered or respected. Evil spirits cause harm and violence. ----- 19 # **Consequences of evil in traditional African society ** These were many and ranged from (a) Barrenness (b) Drought (c) Epidemics (d) Madness (e) Sickness (f) Death (g) Drowning (h) Burning in a house (i) War (j) Physically and mentally handicapped children (l) Rebellious children **GODS PLAN OF SALVATION ** After the fall of man, God took steps to heal the damaged situation and relationship between Him and Adam and Eve. GOD: 1. Provided clothing of skin to Adam and Eve. 2. Looked for Adam and Eve since they were hiding from His presence. 3. Provided Adam and Eve with the knowledge to find different foods. 4. Declared enmity between man and the snake. 5. Hinted at the ultimate victory of man when He said that the seed of the woman would crush the snake or serpents head. The serpent would attack the heel of man and woman. All through the Old Testament, and the New Testament, we see Gods plan of salvation being manifested. For instance, GOD chose and separated Abraham from other communities. The children of Israel led by Moses (were delivered) from Egypt,. God sent prophets to teach and warn the Israelites of the dangers of sin. Finally God sent his only son Jesus Christ to die on the cross to save human kind. **SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TRADITIONAL ** **AFRICAN VIEW OF EVIL AND BIBLICAL CONCEPT OF SIN ** **Similarities ** Both the Biblical and traditional African view or agree that 1) God is supreme. God is neither the creator nor author of evil ----- 20 # 2) Sin comes from the disobedience of God by human beings 3) Evil and misfortune are Gods curse to man (Biblical) while the traditional African society sees evil as curses by ancestors, and elders. Both curses lead to misfortunes. 4) The result of sin and evil is human sufferings 5) Sin and evil lead to man being separated from God 6) God is the guardian of law and order 7) Human beings have the ability to overcome evil **Differences ** 1) Biblical account emphasizes personal nature of sin while in the African concept; sin is more social and communal 2) Biblical account attributes evil to disobedience while African concept attributes evil not only to disobediences but other external forces. 3) Biblical accounts offer a message of hope to overcome evil while African concept doesnt offer a solution to sin and evil. 4) Traditional African concept all forms of suffering as a result of sin while in the Bible suffering is not always a result of sin. **Review questions ** 1) Explain the differences between the two creation stories 2) State the traditional African view of creation 3) Explain how human beings continue with the work of creation 4) What is the origin of sin and evil according to traditional African society? 5) Give three consequences of sin as stated in Genesis 6) State the consequences of evil according to African traditional societies 7) Trace Gods plan of salvation of human kind Compare biblical and traditional African understanding of evil and sin. 9) What does the command Subdue the earth in Genesis 1 verse 28 mean? ----- 21 # **FAITH AND GOD PROMISES TO ABRAHAM ** **BACKGROUND TO THE CALL OF ABRAHAM (Genesis 11:24-32, ** **12) ** **Introduction ** The background to the call of Abraham is found in the first book of the bible. This is Genesis which is a Greek word meaning Beginning. The relationship between Adam and God was good but after Adam disobeyed GOD, their relationship changed because of sin by Eve and Adam. After sometime, God repaired this relationship by calling Abraham and offering salvation. **Background ** -Abraham lived with his father Terah at a place called Ur. Abrahams father lived among people who worshiped many gods. One of the gods whom people of Ur worshipped was the moon. This worship of many gods is referred to as polytheism. -The family of Terah moved from Ur to Haran. While at Haran, God called Abraham at 75 years old. He was told to. Leave your country, your relatives and your fathers home and go to a land that I am going to show you. Abraham obeyed Gods call. He left Haran for a land that was unknown to him. He took his property his wife Sarah and his nephew lot. At the time of the call of Abraham, he was known as Abram and his wife Sarai. God changed their names to Abraham and Sarah. Abraham means Father of many nations while Sarah means mother of nations. -On arrival in Canaan, he travelled and came to a place called Schechem. God appeared to him once more. Abraham built an altar for the lord at this place. Altars are places of worship. They were regarded as holy and were manifestations of Gods presence. An altar was made of stones. -After sometime, he separated with his nephew Lot due to their servants having strife over water for their livestock. Abraham left Canaan due to feminine. He went to Egypt. ----- 22 # **Activity** 1. Where did Lot settle? 2. Read GENESIS, chapter 11 (24 32) and chapter 12 (1 9) **FAITH AND GODS PROMISES TO ABRAHAM (HEBREWS 11: 1 ** ** 6) ** **a. THE MEANING OF FAITH ** -Faith is a strong belief, a complete trust or confidence in someone or something. It is also a firm belief, which is not based on any scientific or logical proof. Faith in God is an attitude of complete trust in God. It is not based on concrete or tangible objects. Faith is manifested in the ways of life of a believer. -Abraham is an example of someone who had faith in God. He showed his faith in action in several ways. **b. HOW ABRAHAM DEMONSTRATED HIS FAITH IN GOD ** 1. Although Abraham was old, he left Haran to go to a strange unknown land of Canaan. 2. After he settled in Canaan, Abraham was assured by God of his protection and was given other promises such as he will get a son, and Abraham believed God. Sarah gave birth to a son when she was 90 years old and Abraham was around 120 years old. This was as the lord had promised Abraham. 3. The son was named Isaac that means laughter because Sarah had laughed when she was told that she would have a child in her old age. The child Isaac was circumcised when he was eight (8) days old. 4. Abraham was told by God to circumcise all males in his household including himself. He obeyed. 5. When Abraham was asked to sacrifice his son Isaac to God, he was ready to do so. ----- 23 # 6. Abraham believed that God would fulfill all the promises he had given to him 7. Abraham demonstrated his faith by building altars **c. GODS PROMISES TO ABRAHAM (GENESIS 12:2-3, 15:1-21, ** **21, 17:1-8, 17:15-18) ** A promise is giving an assurance of something to someone. The promises God gave to Abraham were that: 1. God told him he would give him a land. His descendants would be given the land of Canaan to dwell in 2. His name would be made famous 3. His descendants will be many. Abraham would be made a great nation. 4. God would protect him 5. He was promised a son of their own 6. God would bless him 7. God would bless those who bless him and curse those who curse him 8. Abraham was promised that he would die in peace and in an old age 9. His descendants would be strangers in a foreign land but afterwards would come out with great possessions. **d. THE RELEVANCE OF THE PROMISES MADE BY GOD TO ** **ABRAHAM TO CHRISTIANS TODAY (Gen. 12: 2 3, 15: 1 21, ** **21:1 7, 17: 15 18) ** God called Abraham from idol worship in the same way God continues to call people to serve him. 1) Through Abraham, God had a plan to restore the relationship between man and God 2) Christians receive the promises of blessings from God through Abraham (Gods promises to Abraham fulfilled through Christians) 3) As Abraham left his own people, Christians should leave their sinful lives and put their whole trust in God. ----- 24 # 4) Abraham is seen as the descendant not only of the Israelites but also of Christians 5) Christians have faith that God fulfils promises to them as he did to Abraham 6) Christians are assured of Gods protection 7) Through Gods dealing with Abraham, God shows that he values a personal relationship with human kind. Through Jesus Christ Christians enter into an everlasting covenant with God. Just like Abraham entered into a covenant with God. 9) The promise to Abraham of Canaan Promised Land is to Christians the hope for new land heaven 10) God continues to make promises to those who believe him 11) Abraham is the ancestor (Father) of all believers) **e. DEFINE THE TERM COVENANT ** **i. Definition. ** A covenant is a solemn agreement between two persons or two groups of people. An agreement is between two separated parties. Its a pact, a treaty. When it is a covenant, it conveys a union or partnership. **ii. Characteristics / components of a covenant ** There are components or features that must be in a covenant. A covenant must have a ceremony, sign, witnesses, promises/vows/oaths, obligations / consequences, and participants. A covenant establishes a sacrificial bond between the parties involved. There are obligations or rules by which the parties must abide by, adhere to and observe in order to keep the covenant. A covenant is an agreement and if it is broken, there are consequences for breaking it. In the Bible, there are many covenants. **iii. Examples of covenants in the Bible ** 1. Adamic covenant Agreement between God and Adam 2. Noahlic Covenant Gods covenant with Noah where God promised to preserve life of man and not to destroy it with water. The sign of the ----- 25 # covenant is the rainbow. In Gen 9 verse 3, GOD told Noah, Everything that lives and moves will be food for youJust as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything. Verse 4 says, But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it 3. Abrahamic covenant Gods covenant with Abraham. He promised to fulfill promises He gave to Abraham. These promises were: (1) Increase numbers of descendant of Abraham. He will be father of many nations, (2) Be GOD of his descendants (3) Abraham will have a son an heir, (4) Given land of Canaan and other lands from the river of Egypt to River Euphrates, and all for heirs of Abraham (Gen. 15: 17 18) (5) Circum- cision of all males at 8 days after birth even none Israelites living in their land (6) Covenant with Isaac 4. Mosaic Covenant is a covenant between the Israelites and GOD. Moses led Israel to Mt. Sinai. God promised to be their God. Israelites were given the law written by GOD in tablets of stone, with law and commands I have written for. instruction. (Read exodus 23). 5. Davidic Covenant covenant between David and God God promised him that his dynasty would rule forever. 6. Messianic Covenant new covenant between Christians and God through Jesus Christ. **iv. Gods covenant with Abraham and its importance (Genesis 15:1-** **19) ** The covenant was established after God appeared to Abraham in a vision. During the visitation of God, Abraham was 100 years old and Sarah 90 years. He was promised a son. Abraham wanted assurance from God. God told him to bring him the following items for sacrifice. **v. Items for sacrifice ** Three (3) years olds: heifer, goat, ram and a dove and a pigeon. Abraham then cut these animals into two halves and placed them opposite each other. ----- 26 # The birds were not split. After it was dark, smoking fire and a flaming torch suddenly appeared and passed between the pieces of animals. Towards evening, Abraham fell into a deep sleep. While he slept the Lord appeared to him and told him that: His descendants will be strangers in a foreign land and be slaves for 400 years. But they will come out of this land with a lot of wealth and God will punish the nation that will enslave Israelites. He, Abraham will live up to a ripe age, and die in peace. Then the Lord made a covenant with Abraham and promised to give him and his descendants the land of Canaan. God himself passed through the sacrifi- ces and bound himself to keep the promises. **f) IMPORTANCE OF THE COVENANT BETWEEN GOD AND ** **ABRAHAM (GEN. 15: 1- 19) ** God bound himself in a personal relationship with a human being As God passed through the meat, he showed Abraham he would always protect him. This passed on to the descendants of Abraham This covenant between God and Abraham begins a lasting relationship between God and all the nations of the earth. Throughout this covenant God was initiating his plan of salvation for human kind The promises made to Abraham were fulfilled in New Testament blood of the lamb death of Jesus Christ It emphasized the importance of faith followed by obedience that Abraham shared. **g) COVENANTS IN MODERN LIFE AND THEIR IMPORTANCE ** Modern covenants are (a) Marriage (b) Baptism (c) Oath of loyalty and (d) Ordination of clergy Marriage ceremony: In marriage, the bride, bridegroom and their fami- lies come together. When the two families come together a relationship is ----- 27 # developed. They make an agreement and both sides are seriously involved in the ceremony, whether the marriage is civil or religious. During the marriage ceremony the couple makes vows/promises to each other, before a priest/ pastor and the congregation. Two officials witness these agree- ments. Rings are exchanged as a sign of a lasting relationship. A certifi- cate is given in some cases as a testimony (sign) of this agreement. There is eating and drinking. Baptism: In a Christian baptism, a covenant is entered into between the believer and God. The believer makes vows before God. The priest and the whole congregation witness this agreement. In some churches, a card is issued to the person who has been baptized as a sign of Christian mem- bership. The baptized can now take the Holy Communion, which is a Christian Ceremony. But when an infant is baptized, parents take the vows on behalf of the child. Loyalty /oath : Leaders in public service for example the president, ministers, Members of Parliament, and chief officers are sworn in before they take over their new responsibilities. They swear (take an oath) and promise to carry out their duties firmly and without fear or favour. Ordination of the clergy : Church leaders, nuns and priests take oaths and make vows to God and to the congregation in a ceremony attended by worshippers. **The importance of modern day covenants ** They bind different groups They act as a security They strengthen relationships They unite people together They create loyalty They create peace, harmony and bring a sense of permanence **h) THE TESTING OF ABRAHAMS FAITH (GEN. 22: 1 18) ** ----- 28 # God tested Abrahams faith by asking him to go and sacrifice his only son Isaac. This was the son he loved so much. He was to travel to Mount Moniah. On reaching Mt. Moriah, he built an altar, and arranged wood on it. He tied up his son Isaac and placed him on the altar on top of the wood. He lifted a knife to kill him. But the Angel of the Lord called out to him from heaven. Abraham! Abraham! Do not lay a hand on the boyDo not do anything to him. Now I know you that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son (v 11-12). Abraham had obedient reverence for God became he did not keep back his only son from God. God provided a ram for sacrifice. He named the mountain the Lord provided God was pleased with Abraham and promised him blessings, many descendants victory, and protection. **Activity** Read Genesis 12:1 9, 15:1 6, 17:23 24, 21:1 7, 22:1-19 IMPORTANCE OF FAITH IN CHRISTIAN LIFE TODAY 1. A Christian today is acceptable to God through his faith in God through Jesus Christ. Without faith it is impossible to please God. 2. A Christian can only serve God if he has faith in him. Faith enables a Christian to serve God 3. Faith enables a Christian to accomplish what appears to be impossible 4. Through faith, Christians are able to trust God to fulfill his promises to them 5. Faith is the foundation of the Christians salvation 6. Faith in God gives a Christian the power to overcome all temptations. 8. Christians should expect to have their faith tested just like Abraham was. 9. Faith enables Christians to patiently wait on Gods promises 10. Christians through faith in God help the poor, make right decisions and are able to understand and know God better. ----- 29 # **JEWISH AND AFRICAN PRACTICES OF CIRCUMCISION ** **a. IMPORTANCE OF CIRCUMCISION TO ABRAHAM AND HIS ** **DESCENDANTS (GEN. 17: 1 16) ** The rite of circumcision was started by Abraham and has been practiced by the Jews up to the present times. In the Old Testament, it was important because: (i) Through circumcision: God assured Abraham that he would fulfill His promises to him. (ii) Circumcision was a sign that Abraham and his descendants had entered into a covenant with God. It was an outward sign of inner faith. (iii) Circumcision was a mark of identity for the Jews (iv) It was a sign of obedience to God (v) It was an acceptance of God as the only true God and their willingness to remain faithful to him **In the New Testament** (vi) Circumcision doesnt qualify one to be a child of God. One is accepted as a Christian without circumcision as long as they have faith in God. (vii) A true descendant of Abraham is the Christian who truly believes in God and lives according to His will regardless of colour, race or creed. **b. CIRCUMCISION IN AFRICAN COMMUNITIES ** Circumcision is one of the rites of passage among the African people. It marks the transition from one stage to another. Many ethnic communities in Kenya still practice the rite of circumcision. During circumcision ceremonies, prayers are offered to God for the well being of the initiates (those who are being circumcised) and the prosperity of the whole community. Initiates learn secrets of their community and society. They are taught myths, origin, religious beliefs, and sex education. In some communities, initiates are given new names or ornaments to signify their new status. ----- 30 # **c. JEWISH AND AFRICAN PRACTICES OF CIRCUMCISION ** **Similarities ** In both Jewish and African communities, circumcision: (a) is a mark of identity (b) provided a sense of belonging (c) was observed as a religious experience (d) was compulsory (e) was a tradition passed from one generation to another (f) is a time for shedding blood (g) was a time for offering prayers to God for the well being of the initiates (h) was a time for giving gifts (i) was a ceremony for initiation (j) was a time for giving the initiates names (k) took place in sacred places. **Differences ** In Jewish community, i. Circumcision was a rite for boys while in African society it was for both boys and girls. But it was for boys in a few communities. ii. Boys were circumcised when aged 8 days while in the African society; it was between 15 to 25 years old. iii. Circumcision was for boys organ while in African societies several forms of initiation were done, for example, removal of teeth, and body piercing among others. iv. Circumcision was a command from God while for the African communities it was in obedience to customary law where ancestors were invoked to protect the initiates. **Among the African societies ** v. Circumcision was a rite of passage from childhood to adulthood while for the Jews it was not. vi. The initiates were given specialized education while the Jews were not. vii. The initiates were grouped into age groups, and were secluded from the community while among the Jews it was not so. viii. The rite of circumcision according to seasons while the Jews once a child is born, they are circumcised on the 8th day. ----- 31 # ix. After circumcision, the initiates were allowed to marry, enter a warrior group, own property but for the Jews the initiate was still a child. **Revision questions ** 1.Explain why Abraham is referred to as the father of faith 2. Give five actions from the life of Abraham that shows his faith to God 3. List some of the promises God gave to Abraham 4. Compare and contrast the Jewish and traditional African practice of circumcision 5. What is the importance of faith to Christians? 6. State the elements of a covenant 7. Give examples of covenants in the bible and the modern society 8. Discuss the circumstances that led God to enter into a covenant relationship with Abraham. **SINAI COVENANT ** **THE CALL OF MOSES ** One day, Moses was looking after or tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law. Jethro was a priest of Midian. When Moses came to mount Horeb, the mountain of God, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that although the bush was on fire, it was not burning. Moses went over to the burning bush to look. God called him out within the bush Moses! Moses! He replied, Here I am. God then told Moses not to come closer and to take off his sandals for the place where he was standing was a holy ground. God introduced himself as the God of his father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. God then said he had seen the misery and sufferings of the Israelites in Egypt. He had heard their cry. God had come down to rescue Israelites from the hand of Egyptians. God was to ----- 32 # take them to their home, the land of the Canaanites, a land flowing with milk and honey. God told Moses that He was sending him to go to Pharaoh and bring out the Israelites, the people of God, from Egypt. Moses resisted the call. He asked God Who am I, that is should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israe- lites out of Egypt? God promised to be with him. God said to Moses Say to the Israelites the Lord. The God of their fathers, God of Abraham, God of Isaac and God of Jacob has sent me to you. Moses was told to assemble the elders of Israel and inform them that God was going to deliver them from Egypt. Moses was then to go to the king of Egypt with the elders. He was to tell the king the Lord, the God of the Hebrews has met with us. (EXODUS 3:1 22) **Gods sign to Moses ** Moses was given several signs by God In case the people of Israel did not believe in him. a) First sign was his staff turning into a snake when he threw it down. When he touched the snakes tail it turned into his staff b) Second sign was God asked Moses to put his hand inside his cloak and it was as white as a snow leprous. He was asked to put it back into his cloak and it was restored. c) Moses further complained that he was a stammerer. God then appoi- nted Aaron, his brother, as his spokesman. **Reasons Moses gave against the call ** 1. He felt unworthy of the call. 2. He wondered who he was to tell the Israelites that God had sent him 3. Moses said that he was a stammerer so he let God choose a spokesperson. Moses however heeded to the call and went back to Egypt together with his family. God promised to be with him and perform signs before Phara- oh. ----- 33 # **What does the name Moses mean?** It means drawn out of water. **What did Moses learn about God from his Calling?** Moses learnt that: 1. God is caring, merciful and concerned about the welfare of his people Israelites. 2. God is transcendent he is beyond human understanding. He cannot be limited to time and space. 3. God chooses whomever he wills to carry out his plans. He chose Abraham an old man, a moon worshipper and now Moses, a murderer, a fugitive and a stammerer. 4. God expects total obedience and faith from those that He chooses 5. God is powerful, eternal and omnipresent 6. God is holy. 7. God is a God of history, which means He is concerned with His peoples welfare. 8. God is mysterious He manifested Himself in the burning bush that was not being consumed. **How did God prepare Moses to be the future leader of Israelites? ** 1. His life was spared when he was rescued by Pharaohs daughter 2. He was nursed by his own mother who taught him about Yahweh and his own true identity 3. Life in the wilderness hardened him to be bold and to persevere hardships 4. He learnt to be patient, keen, and responsible as a shepherd 5. He acquired leadership skills while living at pharaohs palace 6. He learnt literacy and numeracy skills (Educational skills) at the palace. 7. He was not a stranger to Pharaoh hence he could approach him freely. ----- 34 # **THE TEN PLAGUES EXODUS 7:14-11:10 ** During the call of Moses at Mount Sinai, God gave Moses a rod with which he could perform mighty signs before the Israelites and before Pharaoh. Aaron was to be his spokesman. Moses and Aaron gathered the Israelite elders and leaders to tell them what God had said to them. After Moses had performed the miracles that God had showed him; the Israelite leaders believed him. They then approached Pharaoh so that he may release the Israelites. However instead of releasing the Israelites, Pharaoh became crueler. He gave Israelites harder work. When Pharaoh refused to release Israelites, God instructed Moses to bring ten plagues upon Egypt. These plagues brought; great trouble and suffering to Israelites. **Ten plagues ** **1) The plague of blood (Exodus 7: 14 25) ** Moses and Aaron used the rod. They struck the waters of the river as God instructed them. All the water in the rivers, canals, and pools in Egypt turned into blood. All the fish died and there was no water to drink. This situation lasted for seven days. However Pharaohs heart was hardened. He did not release the Israelites. **2) The plague of frogs (Exodus 8:1 15) ** God then sent Moses to tell Pharaoh that if he refused to release the Israelites the whole land would be covered with frogs. At the command of Moses, Aaron held out the rod of Moses and frogs covered the whole land. On seeing this, Pharaoh pleaded with Moses and Aaron to pray to the Lord to get rid of the frogs and he would release them. They prayed and all the frogs died. Pharaoh, however, changed his mind and refused to release the Israelites. ----- 35 # **3) Plague of gnats (Exodus 8:16 19) ** The lord instructed Moses to tell Aaron to strike the ground and Aaron did so and all the dust in Egypt turned into gnats or small flies that bites. The magicians of Egypt could perform the first two plagues. They could not bring the plague of gnats. Egyptians acknowledged that the presence of gnats or small flies that bites was Gods work. But even with this information, Pharaoh still refused to release the Israelites. **4) Plague of flies (Exodus 8:20 32) ** The Lord warned Pharaoh through Moses once more. He was told that God would send swarms of flies to the Egyptian houses. The Israelites houses would be spared. Even after bringing the plague of flies, Pharaohs heart hardened even more **5) Death of cattle (Exodus 8:1 7) ** A plague of disease befell the Egyptian cattle. Not a single Israelites animal died. Pharaoh was not moved; and he refused to let Jews go home. **6) Plague of boils (Exodus 9:8 12) ** Moses threw ashes into the air as God had instructed. This produced boils, which became open sores on the skin of the Egyptians. Unmoved by the suffering of his people, Pharaoh still refused to let the Israelites leave. **7) Plague of hail (Exodus 9:13 35) ** Moses raised his rod and there was a hailstorm with lighting and thunder. The people, animals and plants that were struck by the lightning died. Pharaoh then promised to let the Israelites go but as soon as Moses prayed for the hailstorm to stop, pharaoh hardened his heart and refused to let the Israelites leave. **8) Plague of Locusts (Exodus 19:1 20) ** Locusts covered the whole land and ate all the crops in the fields. The locusts ate all that had not been destroyed by the hailstorm. When Moses prayed to God, for locusts to leave; Pharaoh hardened his heart and refu- sed to let the Israelites leave. ----- 36 # **9) Plague of darkness (Exodus 10: 21 29) ** God then instructed Moses to stretch out his hand to heaven. There was total darkness in Egypt for three days. But there was light where the Israe- lites they were living. Pharaoh remained unmoved and would not release the Israelites out of Egypt. **10) Death of Egyptian first-born males (Exodus 11: 1 31). ** After the plague of darkness, God sent Moses once more to Pharaoh. He was told that this time even his family would be affected. The Lord would kill all the first-born Egyptian sons and first-born male animals at mid- night. This plague occurred during the night of Passover. Pharaoh was moved and allowed Israelites to leave Egypt. **What do the plagues tell us about Gods attributes?** GOD: 1. Empowers His people to perform miracles and to do His work 2. Is Almighty and more powerful than the Egyptian gods. 3. Is determined to fulfil His plans. 4. Is a God of justice. He protects the oppressed. 5. Gives everyone a chance to repent. Notice that each time Pharaoh promised to release the Israelites; God relieved the Egyptians from the plagues. 6. Fulfils His promises He had promised Abraham to deliver his descen- dants from foreign lands. 7. Expects total obedience and faith. 8. Communicates His will through natural events. 9. Is caring and loving. **PASSOVER (EXODUS 12:1-30, 19, 20, 34) ** The tenth plague is called the Passover. It happened on the fourteenth day of the month. The Israelites were to offer one-year-old lamb per family. If a family was too small, they were to share the lamb with their neighbours. ----- 37 # If a lamb was not available, a one-year-old goat could also be used. They were told to: 1. Slaughter the lamb/goat; smear some of the blood on the sides and tops of the door- frames of their houses. 2. Roast the meat and eat it with bitter herbs and unleavened bread (bread without yeast). If there were any leftovers they were to burn them with fire. 3. Eat in a hurry while fully dressed and having packed their belongings. They were told to borrow silver, clothings, jewellery, and gold from the Egyptians. 4. That on the same night, the angel of death would kill every first born both males and animals in the houses without blood. 5. The angel of death would pass over the houses with blood sparing them. The blood was a sign to indicate this is a house of Israelites. When the Lord sees the blood, He will pass over that house (V.13) 6. The Israelites were told to celebrate / commemorate from generation to generation the Passover as a festival to the Lord. 7. The Israelites were not allowed to come out of their houses on the night of Passover. 8. At midnight, the Lord struck down all firstborn in Egypt from Phara- ohs household to the firstborn of the prisoners and firstborn of livestock. 9. There was loud wailing over Egypt. Every house had someone dead. **Significance of items used during the Passover ** 1) Roasted Meat this is the easiest method of preparing food since the Israelites were to leave in a short time. 2) Bitter herbs was a reminder of the suffering and hardships and slavery experienced in Egypt. 3) Eating while standing. Deliverance was near, hence the need to leave in a hurry. ----- 38 # 4) Eating while fully dressed with their stuff at hand. This signified a quick deliverance; hence Israelites should be ready to leave Egypt at once. 5) Eating unleavened bread the bread was to be eaten and none left over hence there was no need to add yeast for preservation. 6) Collecting Jewellery God had promised Abraham that after slavery for four hundred and thirty years, his descendants shall be freed with great possessions. 7) Remaining indoors for security from death. Anyone outside was killed. Blood on doorposts a sign for deliverance. The angel of death would pass over doors with blood. **THE EXODUS ** **Introduction ** Exodus means movement of a large number of people. **Crossing the Red Sea ** During the night of the Passover, Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and told them to leave, to go and worship their Lord. All the Israelites, their flocks and herds were urged to leave in a hurry. Pharaoh took his chariot army and followed the Israelites and found them camped by the Red Sea. God led the Israelites over the desert towards the Red Sea. Moses took the body (bones) of Joseph, as Joseph had requested the Israelites to do. When God rescues you, you must carry my body with you from this place (Ex 13 vs. 19) During the day the Lord went in front of them in a pillar of cloud (angel of God) to show them the way, and during the night the lord went in front in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel night and day. This pillar of cloud led the Israelites by day and night. ----- 39 # The Egyptian army followed Israelites and caught up with them by the Red Sea where they had camped. Moses asked the scared Israelites to move near the sea. God told Moses to lift up his stick, and hold it over the sea. The waters of the Red Sea divided and the Israelites crossed the sea on dry ground with walls of water on both sides. The angel of God, and the pillar of cloud (who had been in front of the army of Israel) moved behind the Israelites and provided light to them as they cross. The Egyptians army pursued Israelites. The pillar of cloud made it dark for Egyptians who could not see where they were going. Just before daylight, the Lord looked at the Egyptians from the pillar of cloud and fire and God threw the army of the Egyptians into confusion. Moses was asked by the Lord to stretch out his hand. He did so and waters returned to its normal level drowning Egyptian army and their horses. **God protected the Israelites during the Exodus by: ** 1) Making them cross the red sea on dry ground. 2) Providing water in the wilderness. 3) Providing manna and quails. 4) Defeating Amalekites their enemies. 5) Protecting them from snakes and diseases in the wilderness. **Provision of water in the wilderness ** Israelites travelled in the desert for three days without water. The water, which they found at Marah was bitter and could not be drunk. They called the place Marah meaning bitter. This made them complain. Moses prayed to the Lord. The Lord showed Moses a piece of wood. Moses threw it into the water and it became fit to drink. God continued providing Israelites with water. Again the Israelites lacked water and complained bitterly (Ex.17:1 9). God instructed Moses to strike a rock and water came out of it. Moses called that place Massah which means testing and Meribah ----- 40 # meaning rebellion. This was because the Israelites quarreled and tested God. **Provision of manna and quails (EX 16:1 35) ** As the Israelites were travelling through the desert, they ran out of food. They were hungry and complained to Moses. Their complaints displeased the Lord for they often told Moses they wished he had let them die in Egypt instead of dying in the wilderness. This showed that the Israelites did not trust God to provide for them. In the morning, they were given Manna, which is a Hebrew word for the type of bread given to Israelites by God. The bread looked like wafers or flakes and tasted like coriander seed. In the evening, GOD provided Israelites with quails meat. The provision of manna and quails (meat) lasted for 40 years. On the 6th day of each week, God gave them food for two days one for the 6th day and the other for the 7th day (Sabbath). **DEFEAT OF THE AMALEKITES (Exodus 17: 8 16) ** **Challenges faced by the Israelites during the Exodus ** During the Exodus, the Israelites faced the challenge of the Amalekites. These were desert Nomads who attacked the Israelites in the wilderness. When the Amalekite army came against Israelites, Moses ordered Joshua to gather men and fight. God promised to destroy the Amalekites forever. During the battle, Moses held up his rod. And each time he raised his hands with the rod, the Amalekites were defeated. When he brought his hands down, the Israe- lites were defeated. Because of this, Aaron and Hur supported Moses hands until the Amalekites were defeated. In the wilderness God protected the Israelites form snakebites. He also used a cloud to protect the Israelites from the scorching heat during the ----- 41 # day. At night, the pillar of fire provided warmth to protect them from the harsh cold of the wilderness. **The importance of the exodus in the history of the Israelites ** The exodus showed Israelites that: 1) God loves and tolerates His people. 2) God did not abandon the Israelites despite their lack of faith. 3) God gave the Israelites encouragement through his servant Moses. 4) It was the end of the oppression of Israelites in Egypt. 5) Moses was Gods chosen leader. **MAKING THE SINAI COVENANT (EXODUS 19: 24 1 ** **The Sinai covenant ** God and Israelites . God had specific instructions on how the Israelites were to prepare to make the new covenant. Before making the covenant, God brought Israelites to the foot of Mt. Sinai and asked Moses to ask them if they were willing to make the covenant with HIM. GOD asked them to enter into a personal relationship as a community with HIM. The Israelites agreed to make a covenant. They agreed to obey all Gods com- m.ands. God then promised to make them; i His people ii. A kingdom of priests iii. A holy nation God and Moses . God wanted to confirm that Moses was His true pro- phet. He therefore told Moses that He would come in a thick cloud to meet Israelites. In preparation for Gods coming on Mt. Sinai the Israelites were to: I. Make themselves holy by washing their clothes (garments) II. Mark the boundaries on the foot of the mountain to prevent any person or animal from climbing the mountain. III. To abstain from sexual relations ----- 42 # At Mt Sinai, God manifested His presence in the form of thunder, lightening, earthquake and a thick cloud of smoke that covered the whole mountain. In addition, there was a loud trumpet blast that made the people tremble. Moses climbed the mountain. God gave Moses the Ten Comma- ndments after sealing the covenant. Sealing of the covenant . The Lord told Moses Come up the mountain to me, you and Aaron, Nadab, Abibu and 70 of Israel leaders. At a distance bow down in worship, and come alone to me. A ceremony was then prepared to seal the covenant. This is how it was sealed: a. Moses built an altar at the foot of the mountain. b. He set up twelve stones, which represented the twelve tribes of Israel. c. He then sent young men to burn sacrifices to the Lord and sacrificed some cattle as fellowship offering and peace offerings to God (EX 24 vs. 5). d. Moses took half the blood of animals and poured it in bowls; and the other half he threw against the altar (vs. 6). He then took the book of the covenant, and read it aloud to the Israelites who responded by saying all that the Lord has spoken we will do; and we shall be obedient e. Moses then took the blood in the bowls and sprinkled it over the people; saying This is the blood that seals the covenant which the Lord made with you when he gave all these commands. Theophany. Gods presence manifested itself in several ways such as: The burning bush (during the call of Moses) Pillar of fire and a pillar of cloud Exodus story The mighty wind, earthquake, still small voice story of Elijah Thunder, lighting, smoking mountain Exodus of Israelites from the wilderness These were physical manifestations of Gods presence. ----- 43 # **BREAKING THE SINAI COVENANT (Exodus 32:1 35; 34:6 8) ** Israelites dishonored their pledge to obey God upon sealing the covenant; Moses went back to talk to God in the mountain. He left Aaron in charge of Israelites affairs. He stayed in the mountain for forty days. The lord revealed His glory to Moses at Mt. Sinai and declared His character. The Lord the compassionate and glorious God, slow to anger and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin (Ex 34:6 The Israelites urged Aaron to make them gods that they could see. Aaron agreed. He melted the rings of gold and moulded a bull calf god. Israelites were happy and said this is our god who took us out of Egypt. They offered burnt offerings and peace offerings to it and indulged themselves in eating, drinking and sex. By accepting a bull calf as their god, the Israelites expected bull calf of gold to give them the same strength and fertility like the Egyptian gods. Through this act, they broke their covenant with God. When Moses came down from the mountain, he found Israelites worshipping the gold bull calf. He got annoyed. He threw down the stone tablets he was holding; on which the 10 commandments were written. Moses then took the golden calf, and burnt it into powder and mixed it with water. He then made those worshipping the calf to drink the mixture. Moses ordered those who had sinned to be killed. LESSON EIGHT: RENEWAL OF THE COVENANT (Exodus 34:1 14). Learning outcomes. After studying this lesson, describe conditions for the renewal of the covenant The renewal of the covenant came after Moses pleaded with God not to destroy the Israelites after they ----- 44 # broke the covenant. God spared the Israelites. God agreed to renew the covenant with the Israelites. He gave them several conditions for its renewal. Conditions for the renewal of the covenant The Israelites were: a) To obey Gods commandments b) Not to make any treaty with those who lived in the land where they were going. c) To break down their altar, smash their sacred stones and cut down their Asherah (Idols). Not to worship any other god and not to make idols for worship. d) To keep the feast of unleavened bread (Passover). e) Not to marry people form other tribes. f) To rest on the Sabbath day. g) To sacrifice and offer their best produce and animals to God. God in turn promised to a) Bless them. Protect and preserve the Israelites. b) Make them prosper so much that the surrounding nations would enquire about their source of wealth and success. With these conditions, the covenant between God and the Israelites was renewed. From the making and renewal of the covenant, it is clear that: (i) God expected the Israelites to obey and have faith in Him (ii) God wanted a personal relationship with Israelites. (iii) God is the only one to be worshipped. (iv) God is powerful. LESSON NINE: WORSHIPING GOD IN THE WILDERNESS Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson a.

TOPIC FIVE: LEADERSHIP IN ISRAEL: DAVID AND SOLOMON Learning outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: a. Explain the reasons for and against kingship in Israel b. State king Sauls achievements, failures and lessons learnt from Saul. c. Explain the importance of David as King of Israel and ancestor of Jesus Christ. d. Describe the qualities of a good leader drawn from King Davids leadership e. State King Solomons achievements and failures f. Explain the importance of the temple in Israel. LESSON ONE: REASONS FOR AND AGAINST KINGSHIP IN ISRAEL Introduction Yahweh remained the God of Israel and the sovereign ruler of his people. ----- 49 # Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. Define leadership b. Name Israel judges in Canaan Leadership refers to the manner in which a communitys way of life is ruled or controlled. When Israelites settled in Canaan, Judges ruled them for the first 200 years. Some of the judges were (i) Othniel, (ii) Ehud (iii) Samson (iv) Deborah (v) Gideon (vi) Shamgar (vii). Samuel (viii). Barak Duties of judges a. Leading Israelites to war against their enemies b. Settling disputes among the people c. Acting as religious leaders and leading Israelites in worship d. Offering sacrifices on behalf of the people. e. Some of the judges acted as Gods prophets f. They anointed kings, for example Samuel anointed King David. Demands for a King in Israel After Israelites settled in Canaan, the Promised Land, they started demanding for an earthly king to rule over them. These demands for a king ruler were brought about by: i Samuels sons Joel and Abijah were corrupt and took bribes. The sons of Samuel, who were judges, lacked his good leadership qualities. ii The Israelites wanted a warrior king who could lead them to war against their enemies. iii The Israelites wanted to be like the other nations around them who had kings. iv The Israelites wanted a human leader whom they could see, approach, and talk to him face to face. ----- 50 # v The Israelites wanted security, which could be provided by a stable political government ruled by law and order. vi They wanted a government that had a regular army, vii They also wanted an established law court system. Reasons against Kingship in Israel (Samuel 8:10 20) By demanding for a king, the Israelites were seen as rejecting Yahweh their unseen ruler. Two, there would be danger of hereditary kingship which would lead to oppression / dictatorship. God told Samuel to give Israelites strict warnings against Kingship by explaining how the king would treat them. A king would: - (a) Recruit Israelites sons forcefully into the army. (b) Grab peoples land. (c) Force people to pay taxes to the government (d) Turn people into slaves. (e) Introduce forced labour. (f) Force their daughters to work for his wives, sons, and for the royal house in general. The people of Israel were distinct from other nations. Asking for a king meant rejecting God as their unseen king. Further to this, Israel could become like other nations, which did not worship Yahweh. Then the covenant with God and the people of Israel would cease. LESSON TWO: ACHIEVEMENTS AND FAILURES OF KING SAUL (Israel 13:8 14; 15:7 25) Learning outcomes. After reading about King Saul, you should a. State his achievements b. Identify his failures ----- 51 # c. Suggest lesson we can learn from his failures Samuel was directed by God to choose and anoint Saul as the king of Israel. Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin. He became the first human king of the nation of Israel. He accomplished several things. Successes of King Saul 1) He was anointed by God; as king to rule the Israelites 2) He was chosen even though it was not Gods idea for a king over his people. 3) He was a great warrior. He led the Israelites to war and defeated their enemies Failures of King Saul 1) God told Saul through Samuel to destroy the Amalekites completely. Saul however disobeyed God. He spared the king and the fat livestock. He claimed to have spared the fat animals for sacrifice to God. Because of this disobedience, God rejected Saul as king. 2) The Israelites were faced with many enemies. The worst were the Philistines. It was a custom for the king of Israel to enquire from God whether to go to the battle or not. The priest/prophet gave permission to the king to go to war. When Saul was faced with the dilemma whether to fight or not, Samuel enquired from God. Saul did not wait for permission to go to war from Samuel the priest. He decided to bypass Samuel by offering a sacrifice to God before going to war. This action displeased God because it was not his work to offer sacrifice to God. It was the work of priests. ----- 52 # 3) After God rejected Saul as the king of Israel, Samuel was guided by God to go to Bethlehem. He was asked to go to the home of Jesse who had eight (8) sons. In that home, God was to show Samuel the next king of Israel. Samuel would then anoint the chosen son of Jesse. Seven of Jesses sons were brought before Samuel one by one. God told Samuel that he had not chosen any of them. When David, a shepherd, was brought before Samuel God said to him this is the one anoint him! (1 Samuel 16:12). David was anointed (poured oil on) as the next king of Israel. However he had to wait until Saul died before he could take over kingship. 4) After Samuel anointed David to become the next king of Israel, Saul was jealous and plotted many times to kill him. David was employed to serve Saul. He played the harp, lyre wherever an evil spirit possessed Saul. 5) When Samuel died; the Philistines gathered to fight Israel. Saul was filled with terror. Saul enquired from God whether he should go to war, but did not get an answer. Saul disobeyed God by asking a medium (witch) to consult the dead for him. This act led to the death of Saul together with his son Jonathan in battle. 6) Saul was concerned with what people thought of him than pleasing God. He wanted to please people and not God. He was disobedient with God (1 Samuel 15:24) Lessons, which Christians can learn from King Sauls failures 1) Value of being patient. ----- 53 # 2) Christian should obey God, follow His commands and not be afraid of people. 3) Christian should obey religious leaders placed over them by God. 4) Christian leaders should be humble 5) It is against the teachings of God, against the will of God to consult the spirits of the dead through mediums. 7) Without faith, it is impossible to please God. God desires sincere worship. 9) Political leaders should consult and listen to religious leaders. 10) Christians should not turn against their enemies or rivals. They should not plot to have them destroyed and killed. LESSON THREE: IMPORTANCE OF DAVID (1 Samuel 16: 1 23, 2 Samuel 6:1 15) Learning outcomes. After reading about King David, you should a. State his importance to God and the Israelites b. Analyse achievements and failures of King David c. Trace David lineage up to Jesus Christ d. Narrate fulfillment of the promises to David in the New Testament e. Give reasons why God rejected Davids offer to build him a temple David took over kingship of Israel though some people resisted his rule. At first he ruled the house of Judah. Later on the other tribes rallied behind him. Importance of King David David became king after the death of Saul. He ruled for over 40 years as king of Judah and Israel. Achievements of David 1) He was a brilliant military commander ----- 54 # 2) He captured the old fortress of Jerusalem from the Jebusites and made it his capital city. 3) He removed the ark of covenant from the house of Abinadab in Shiloh and brought it to Jerusalem. 4) He expressed great faith in God. Through his faith in God, he was able to kill Goliath, the great Philistine warrior. 5) He was a skilled musician and composed marry psalms that were used and are still being used in temple and church worship. 6) David respected the prophets of God and always consulted them whenever he wanted to do anything. 7) He expanded the geographical boundaries of Israel through conquests. He was a great diplomat and established good political relations with the neighboring kings. 9) He was a shrewd administrator who chose wise elders and counselors to advice him. 10) God promised to establish an everlasting kingdom for David 11) David ruled over Israel, administering law and justice to all people. 12) He took a census of the Israelites and used the information to (a) recruit young men into military service and (2) decide on the policy of taxation. 13) David had remarkable leadership qualities. He was kind. He spared mephibosheth, Sauls grandson. 14) David was humble. He was ready to accept sins he had committed and repent e.g. he repented after committing adultery with Bathsheba. David as an ancestor of Jesus Christ (2 Samuel 1 29, LK 1:26 33) ----- 55 # David intended to build a splendid temple for God in Jerusalem. He felt it was not fair for the Ark of the Covenant to continue dwelling in a tent while he himself lived in a magnificent palace. To achieve this goal, David consulted Nathan, the prophet on whether to build the temple. The prophet approved the idea. But that night, Nathan received a revelation form God that stated that David was not to build a house (temple) for God. Davids son would build the temple of God (2 Samuel 7:5 6). Prophet Nathan gave David Gods message to David. The message was that a) His son will build the temple b) God would give Davids descendants a place to settle c) God promised to raise up an heir from the house of David to sit on the throne d) God promised to make Davids name great or famous among all other leaders of the earth. Reasons why God rejected Davids offer to build him a temple Here are some of the reasons: a. David had been involved in a lot of wars with the Israelites enemies and had thus shed a lot of blood. b. God was a God of the people and could not be confined to a house. c. It was the will of God to establish the house of David (build David a house) rather than David builds a house for him (God). The human body is the temple of God. God dwells in the hearts of people. d. David had grown old. God wanted him to rest. e. God had planned that Davids son would build a house for him a place to house the Ark of the ----- 56 # Covenant. King Solomon, Davids son built the temple and fulfilled Gods promises to David. Solomons rule was peaceful and prosperous. The New Testament is a fulfillment of Gods promises to David 1) The gospel writers tell us that Jesus was born in the family of David (Luke 1:26 27) 2) The angel of God during the annunciation of the birth of Jesus said that He will be like his ancestor David (Luke 1:32 33) 3) Jesus was born in Bethlehem which was also the birthplace of David (Luke 2:4) 4) Bartimaeus the blind man of Jericho hailed Jesus as the son of David 5) During his triumphal entry to Jerusalem, Jesus was hailed by the crowd as the messiah descended from David. 6) In his genealogy, saint Mathew says that Jesus was a descendant of David (Matt.1: 1) Failures of King David.

By the end of this lesson, you should: a. Analyse achievements of king Solomon b. State failures of king Solomon After David died, his son Solomon became the next king. Kingship in Israel was hereditary. Solomon was chosen by David to be his successor. He took over from David at a time of peace and security established by David. Achievements 1) He made Israel rich by establishing trade with other countries 2) He was a good trader and a successful merchant. He traded in copper, horses, timber, silver and gold. He established international trade with the neighboring countries. For example, he traded with Tyre in cedar and pine logs. 3) He established a well equipped large army for Israel 4) He was a builder. He built a magnificent temple for God in line with Gods promise to David. He also constructed other cities (Megiddo) and a palace for himself. 5) He is remembered for his amazing administrative skills. He had 550 officials in charge of labour force. 6) He was a diplomatic ruler. He established friendly ties with his neighbours. This ensured continued peace. For instance he married the daughters of the kings of Egypt, Moab, Eden and Sidon so as to establish strong ties with those nations. 7) He had great wisdom. He judged a difficult case between two women who were claiming ownership ----- 59 # of the same child. He composed many wise sayings known as the proverbs of Solomon. He also composed songs like Song of Solomon and Song of Songs and poems in Ecclesiastes. 9) He dedicated the temple of God with great rejoicing. 10) He brought the Ark of the Covenant to the temple of Jerusalem. Failures of King Solomon 1) He married women from many foreign countries. These actions made Solomon break the Torah as Israelites were not supposed to marry foreigners. Through these marriages, idol worship started in Israel. This was because he allowed his wives to worship their gods, build temples and altars for them. This led to introduction of idolatry in Israel. 2) Solomon constructed his palace for 13 years. He then built Gods temple for 7 years. This showed that he probably loved himself more than God. 3) He killed his own half brother Adonija on suspicion that he could be a rival to the throne. 4) Solomon lived lavishly, and expensively. He thus burdened the Israelites with high taxes. 5) He used forced labour. This was the same as enslaving the Israelites. 6) He worshipped idols. Solomons heart was turned to such other gods as Ashtoreth / ashitarte goddess of Sidon and Molech the god of the Ammonites. This was breaking Gods commandments 7) He sold part of Israelite territory to the king of Tyre He used pagan skills when designing, decorating, and furnishing the temple. ----- 60 # 9) He made treaties with other nations inspite of the fact that God had forbidden Israel from making treaties 10) He was extravagant. He used a lot of state wealth to entertain and please his many wives and concubines. Activity. Many husbands in Kenya practice polygamy. I want you to find out from your neighbours what are the advantages and disadvantages of polygamy. Then write a paper arguing either for polygamy or monogamy. LESSON SIX: IMPORTANCE OF THE TEMPLE IN ISRAEL Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a) Define a temple b) State the importance of the temple to Israelites. Definition of a temple This is a building dedicated to the worship of God. Solomon built the temple as a fulfillment of the promises that God gave to David, that his son would build a house for him.

TOPIC SIX: LOYALTY TO GOD ELIJAH LESSON ONE: EFFECTS OF IDOLATRY IN ISRAEL Introduction After the death of Solomon, the kingdom of Israel split into two countries. the southern kingdom called Judah ruled by King Rehoboam and the Northern kingdom called Israel led by King Jeroboam. Other kings who ruled these two nations were King Abijah, King Asa of Judah, and king Nadab, Baasha, Elah, ----- 62 # Zimri, Omri, and Ahab of Israel. During the time of Elijah king Ahab ruled Israel. Learning outcomes. After studying this lesson on idolatry, you should a. State factors that led to spread of idolatry in Israel b. Analyse religious schism between Judah and Israel c. Describe King Ahabs marriage to the Phoenician princess (Tyre) d. Explain the failure to completely destroy temples, and places of worship e. State effects of idolatry in Israel a. Factors that led to spread of idolatry in Israel When Israelites intermarried with other communities, they worshipped their gods. The Bible makes it clear that i There was a lot of influence by Canaanite religion ii There was division /schism of Israel into 2 kingdoms iii Ahabs married the Phoenician princess iv Israelites did not destroy all gods after settling in Canaan. Influence of the local Canaanite religion Idolatry is the worship of idols. An idol is an image representing a god made using precious materials such as gold, bronze, stone, and hardwood images kept in the places of worship. God had forbidden Israelites from bowing down to images and worshipping idols, intermarrying with non-Israelites, and making treaties. When Israelites settled in Canaan, they forgot Gods commandments. They intermarried and were greatly influenced by the local religion. Israelites changed from being pastoralist to farmers. They therefore worshipped Baal the god of rain, ----- 63 # agricultural fertility, and storms. Israelites worshipped Baal, for rain for their crops. The Israelites were also attracted to the visible gods of Canaan as opposed to the invisible Yahweh. This is how idolatry spread in Israel. However some Israelites maintained worship of Yahweh only (monotheistic) while others worshipped Yahweh and Baal (syncretism). Characteristics of the Canaanite religion. Canaanite religion was: 1. Polytheistic. They worshipped many gods. The Israelites religion was monotheistic. They worshipped Yahweh and no other God. They abandoned their religion and worshipped many gods like Canaanite. This influenced the Israelites. 2. A nature religion. The gods were related with the forces of nature such as rain, sun, storms, drought, famine, wind, water and death. 3. Ensured continued fertility of land, people, animals 4. Based on many families of gods. There was a. EL Chief god who was their father, king, creator b. Asherah wife of El the goddess of motherhood and fertility c. Baal also referred to as Baal Hadad, son of El and Asherah the god of rain, agricultural fertility, storms d. Astarte wife of Baal -the goddess of war e. Anat sister of Baal the goddess of war and love f. Maat the goddess of love g. Mot most feared. The god of drought, famine and death 5. Free and temple of prostitution. Israelites turned to temple prostitution. Women who wanted to ----- 64 # increase vitality of their husbands had sexual relations with the male priests in the Baal temples. 6. Had many places of worship. One could pray in the temple, under sacred trees, and on top of the hills among others. 7. Based on offerings and sacrifices of human beings. Exercise. State differences between Israel and Canaanite religion b. Religious schism between Judah and Israel Schism occurred among the Israelites because there were sharp differences within them. These differences were religious, political and social. After the death of Solomon, the nation of Israel was split. Rehoboam ruled one group while the other was ruled by Jeroboam. Because of this split, Jeroboam could not go to Jerusalem to worship in the temple. He thus set up other places of worship one at Bethel, and another at Dan. Jeroboam also set up images to represent Yahweh. Though he had no intention of Idol worship, it turned out to be so because he made his subjects to offer sacrifices to these golden calves, which he had designed as images representing Yahweh. He also built places of worship on hilltops like the Canaanites. He chose priests from other families in addition to the Levite Family. Furthermore, he organised religious festivals and feasts in the month of his choice. As it were, they coincided with the Canaanites calendars. He then burnt incense at the altar of idols. Jeroboam therefore started idol worship and gave room for idolatry. Kings who succeeded him followed this idol worship. ----- 65 # c. King Ahabs marriage to the Phoenician/Tyre princess Ahab married Jezebel, the daughter of the King Ethbaal of Sidon (Tyre) to strengthen ties with Tyre/Phoenicia. Queen Jezebel was ambitious, and a strong follower of Baal religion. Ahab allowed her to bring her gods to Israel. She forced Israelites to worship Baal and not Yahweh. She imported 450 prophets of Baal and supported them using public treasury. Ahab built a temple to Baal In Samaria. He also put up an image of goddess Asherah. d. When Israelites settled in Canaan, they did not destroy temples, places of worship, idols, images that they found there. As a result Canaanites religious practices influenced Israelites worship of Yahweh leading to idolatry. The effects of idolatry harmed Israelites as: 1) Syncretism developed. This was a process of mixing beliefs and practices from different religions. Israelites worshipped Yahweh and the gods of Canaan. 2) Former places of worship for the Canaanite gods were used as places of worship for Yahweh 3) The Canaanite agricultural calendar was adopted by Israelites 4) Names of the Canaanite gods were used for Yahweh. For example, EL was referred to as Yahweh 5) Parents began naming their children after Baal. 6) Feasts and celebrations were changed to correspond with those of Canaanites when they celebrated their feasts. 7) King Ahab declared worship of Baal as the state religion Queen Jezebel ordered the destruction of the altars of Yahweh ----- 66 # 9) Prophets of Yahweh were killed. Elijah went into hiding. 10) The 450 prophets of Baal were made the officials of the royal court in order to promote and protect Baal religion 11) Israel started to experience long droughts because Yahweh withdrew his blessings. This made Israel worshippers of El LESSON TWO: ELIJAHS FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION AND FALSE RELIGION IN ISRAEL Learning outcomes. After studying Elijah, you should a. Describe the contest at Mount Carmel b. Explain how Elijah fought against corruption c. Explain the relationship between Ahab and Naboth d. Describe Gods sentence to Ahab. e. Relate Elijahs encounter with Yahweh at Mt. Horeb f. Identify forms of corruption a) The contest at Mount Carmel (1 King 18:17 46). Carmel refers to the vineyard of the Lord. King Ahab brought trouble to Israel because of worshipping the idols of Baal. Elijah told Ahab that the problems Israel was facing were due to worship of Baal, The decision. Elijah requested king Ahab to call a meeting at Mt Carmel. In attendance would be all Israelites, 450 prophets of Baal, and 400 prophets of the goddess Asherah who were supported by Queen Jezebel and Elijah Elijah told Israelites it was decision time. They had to choose their God. Would it be Yahweh, the God of Israel or Baal the god of Jezebel of Phoenician/Tyre. If it was to be Baal, then they were told to follow ----- 67 # him, if they select Yahweh as their God then they were to follow him (1 kings 18 vs. 21). The choice. Elijah proposed a contest between him and Baal prophets. He asked for two bulls one for him, the other for 450 prophets of Baal. The contest was who can light fire? Yahweh or Baal? He proposed that Baal prophets and himself be given each a bullock. Both shall cut the bull into pieces and put them on wood without lighting fire. The Baal prophets shall pray to their god and Elijah shall pray to the Lord. The one who sends fire to consume the sacrifices .. he is God. The people of Israel accepted Elijahs proposal. Actions. The prophets of Baal prayed first because they were many. They took the bull, prepared it and prayed to Baal until noon (vs. 26). They prayed louder, and cut themselves with knives and daggers; but there were no answer. The prophets of Baal kept on ranting and raving until evening but there was no answer (vs. 29). Elijah asked people to gather near him. He prepared the altar of the Lord to repair work. He took 12 stones representing the 12 tribes of Israel (who were named after the 12 sons of Jacob or Israel) and used them to rebuild the altar. He then dug a trench around the altar. This trench could hold 14 litres of water. He placed the wood on the altar; cut the bull into pieces and laid them on the wood. He asked for four barrels of water and poured it on the offering and wood. He poured water on the altar three times ----- 68 # until the water overflowed, run around the altar and filled the trenches. Elijah then called on the Lord O Lord, the God of Abraham, prove now that you are the God of Israel and that am your servant and have done all this at your command (vs. 29). The Lord sent fire down and it burnt up the sacrifice, wood, stones, and dust and licked up the water that was in the trench. When people saw this, they proclaimed The Lord, is God; the Lord alone is God. Elijah asked people to arrest the prophets of Baal, led them down to the river Kishon and killed them. And after this there was rain in Israel (vs.40). Lessons learnt from Mt. Carmel. Israelites acknowledged that Yahweh is: i Is their only God and that Baal was not God ii Is powerful iii Is a merciful God iv Is a jealous God as He will have no other gods but him v Is a God of justice who punishes idolaters and sinners vi Answers prayer vii Is a forgiving true God viii Protects his servants b) Elijahs fight against corruption (1 Kings 21: 1 29) Corruption is defined as dishonesty. Its a form of injustice when dealing with either an individual or the community for selfish gain and benefit. In a corrupt society people in leadership or with wealth take advantage of the weak, and the poor. The powerful exploit the poor and the powerless by denying them their rights. An example of corruption in Israel is the story of the Naboths Vineyard. ----- 69 # Naboths vineyard. Ahab wanted Naboth to either sell to him his vineyard or exchange it with another vineyard. Naboth refused to sell his inheritance. Jezebel, on seeing that Ahab was sorrowful told him that she will get him Naboths vineyard. Jezebel sent out letters in Ahabs name to the elders of the city. She found two witnesses who could bear witness that Naboth had blasphemed God and king Ahab. Witnesses testified that Naboth had blasphemed God. He was stoned to death. God then sent Elijah to meet with Ahab as he went to possess the vineyard of Naboth. Gods sentence to Ahab. God pronounced to Ahab through Elijah that (1) dogs shall lick his own blood from the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth (2) His sons shall be killed (3) Dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel (4) Evil shall be brought upon Ahabs house. This was because Ahab had broken these commandments: The 6th commandment which forbids murder The 9th commandment which forbids bearing of false witness. Ahab allowed his wife to bear false witness against Naboth 10th Commandments you shall not covet your neighbors property. Elijahs encounter with Yahweh at Mt. Horeb (Mr. Sinai) 1 Kings 19 After killing the prophets of Baal, Elijah was threatened by Jezebel. She vowed to kill him. Elijah ran away to the wilderness. The angel of God fed him with a loaf of bread and a jar of water. After eating and drinking Elijah walked to Mt. Sinai the holy mountain of God. He stayed there for 40 days and 40 ----- 70 # nights. In the mountain God appeared to him. There was a strong wind, an earthquake, a fire but the Lord was not in them. Then the lord spoke to Elijah in a still small voice. God told Elijah return and anoint Hazael as king of Syria, Jehu as king of Israel, and anoint Elisha as a prophet and your successor. Self-assessment question.

TOPIC SEVEN: SELECTED ASPECTS OF AFRICAN RELIGIOUS HERITAGE. Introduction All Traditional African Communities believe in a Supreme Being who is the origin and sustainer of all things: He is the creator of the university and all that it contains. All Africans agree that nobody has ever seen God. Therefore, nobody can really describe Him, yet through their religious insights, Africans have formulated ideal about the nature of God. These ideas concern His real being and His activities. Traditional religion refers to African culture that existed in the sub Saharan Africa. African traditional ----- 73 # culture had no scriptures or texts because most of it was oral. It was preserved and handed down from generation to generation-through oral traditions; ceremonies; rituals, and leading personalities. Learning outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to a) Explain and appreciate the African concept of God spirits and ancestors b) Identify attributes of God c) Explain the African understanding of the hierarchy of beings d) Describe the role of God, spirits and ancestors e) Explain the responsibilities of the living towards God, spirits and ancestors f) Describe the traditional African way of worshipping God, venerating and communicating with the ancestors and spirits. LESSON ONE: AFRICAN CONCEPT OF GOD, SPIRITS AND ANCESTORS Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. Describe the African concept of his/her religion b. State attributes of God c. Draw a diagram showing hierarchy of beings Africans believed in existence of a supreme being who lived in mountains, clouds and the sky. God was the creator of the universe. In African traditions, religion was integrated in every aspect of life and daily activities. For example, farming activities involved God, spirits and ancestors. People would pray to God, spirits ancestors so as to ask for blessings in order to have a good harvest. Livestock keepers believed that fertility of their animals is a result of the blessings of God. If God was appeased, animals would ----- 74 # increase. Natural phenomena such as thunder, lightning, rain; good harvest, and birth were linked to the Supreme Being and the invisible world. If there were calamities such as drought, disease, famine, and death, it was an indication that God, spirits and ancestors were displeased with humankind. Many communities have invocations uttered through out the day Nature or Attributes of god God is described with many names, which are Gods attributes. These are among others: a) God is Good Nearly all-African communities describe God as being good to all people and things. He gives rain, sunshine and life among many other gifts. b) God is merciful. The Akamba refer to God as God of pity, the merciful one. God shows mercy in times of danger, illness, difficulty or anxiety. c) God is holy. He is pure, holy and does not make mistakes. Yoruba call him God who is pure, without blemish. The Kikuyu say God is Possessor of whiteness and the Bukusu master whitewash. African traditions all approach God with reverence, fear, respect and honor. For example when offering sacrifices, they would offer a one-colour animal either white, black, or brown and not a spotted animal. d) God is powerful i.e. Omnipotent. God is described as almighty. His power is expressed in natural occurrences like thunder, lighting, earthquakes, rains, and floods. e) God is all knowing (Omniscient). God knew all things; nothing can be hidden from him. He discerns ----- 75 # hearts. f) God is all present (Omnipresent).He is present everywhere in the universe g) God is limitless. God has no limit. He is both very far and very near, beyond and within. h) God is transcendent .God cannot be exhausted by human imagination. He is unexplainable, beyond human experience and understanding. i) God is all understanding j) God is self existent .He made all things but he himself is not made. He exists on his own. Zulu explain that God is he who is of himself. k) God is a spirit He is invisible, and everlasting.. Shilluk of Sudan refer to him as great spirit the formless spirit. l) God is everlasting. God is eternal, never changes, and never dies. The Yoruba call him the mighty immovable rock that never dies. m) God is God created the creator .The world Kikuyu call him Mumbi n) God is just. Kikuyu refer to God as Mugai meaning divider. One who shares out. God judges fairly, punishes those who do wrong and rewards the good with blessings. o) God is the provider. All communities acknowledge that God provides them with everything they have. Africans built representation of the power of God. They identified sites, places and things that represented the presence and power of God. For example things like big trees, thick forest, high mountains, unique rock formations and large rivers and animals. In these places they built sites, and ----- 76 # shrines. Shrines were regarded as holy and people approached them with reverence Spirits. They were believed to exist between God and human beings in the universe. Spirits were diverse and created by God. Some spirits were dead human beings. Spirits were divided into nature, sky, earth and human spirits that were either long dead (ghosts) or recently dead (ancestors). There were different types of spirits. These were: a. Divinities. These are spirits created by God. They are close to God and act as his agents. They are in charge of natural phenomena like the sun, moon and stars. They are intermediaries between God and ancestral spirits, human beings and other creatures. They reveal Gods plans through diviners and mediums b. Human spirits / common spirits. These are inferior to divinities but higher than human kind. They are remains of human beings after their death. These spirits monitor human activities. Human spirits have lost their names and are not longer remembered by the living. They are believed to live in the under world, undergrounds, in thick bushes, forests, rivers, mountains, lakes, skies, and caves among other places. These spirits can bring harm to the living if disrespected. They appear to people in dreams or in form of shadows. They can also enter or possess a person and cause abnormalities. 3. Ancestors / living dead ----- 77 # These are spirits of the recently dead. They are remembered by the living when children are named after them. They are actively involved in the lives and activities of the living. Their offerings (food or drink) are poured on the ground for them to receive. Ancestors are in a period of transition between the living and the higher categories. They are believed to know the problems of the living and therefore consulted constantly. They are also associated with evil such as revenge for burying them without honor, or not following the instructions they gave before they died or failing to pour them libations. When they are happy with the living, they are a source of blessings. Ancestors who did evil things or committed suicide are forgotten and ignored. Hierarchy of beings. Hierarchy means the order or ranking from the highest to the lowest of created beings. At the top is Divinities Ancestors Human Beings Animals and Plants Non-living Things LESSON TWO: THE ROLE OF GOD, SPIRITS AND ANCESTORS Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson: - a. Write a description of God from an African perspective ----- 78 # God is the creator. The Akamba community believed that God whom they called Mulungu created man and woman. He then tossed them to the earth. The Luhya claim God created them from the black topsoil hence their skin complexion. God is the source of life and giver of life. Barren women pray to God to ask for children. Human beings depend on God for life, rain, air, and sunshine. God is the provider. He gave domestic animals to human beings for their use. Domestic animals have many uses such as repayment of dowry, food, and sacrifices to God, payment of a fine by an offender. Many wild animals are used in folk songs and tales to discourage cowardice, and laziness God is a protector of human beings from evil. God is the giver of moral laws and a judge of people God offers solutions to mans problems through mediums, and prophets God gives power to the specialists such as medicine men, women and priests. God punishes people for wrongdoing Wild animals such as hyena are used in folk stories to discourage cowardice. Stories of tortoise illustrate the importance of being slow but sure. Snakes in some communities such as the Luhya were not killed. The community believed snakes were immortal ancestors coming to visit the living. Plants were used as food for people and animals. Trees were used for fuel and building materials. Some trees were used as sacred places of worship. ----- 79 # Non-living things such as the rain, rocks, and rivers had a religious importance. Rain is seen as a blessing from God. When rain fails, diviner/rain maker was consulted. Rocks, and mountains were believed to be dwelling places for the living, the dead and the spirits. The spirits were viewed as neither good nor evil. Human beings feared them. Their roles were many. They; i Appeared in dreams especially to diviners, priests, medicine men and women, and rain makers to relay information ii Were consulted by religious specialists to find the cause of a problem in a given situation. iii Were bad (naughty) spirits, which disturbed people. African communities believed that bad sprits could call out ones name but on turning theres no one. iv Were manipulated by some human beings to cause harm to others v Relayed Gods messages to human beings. vi Sometimes possessed a person causing the person to be sent away from the village to the forest, or a way from home. vii Acted as intermediaries between humans, divinities and God. Role of ancestors is to: - 1) Appear to families in dreams, and visions. 2) Give family instructions i.e. what should be done. 3) Rebuke those who fail to honor them and warn them of impending punishment 4) Act as mediators between the living and God. 5) Enquire about family affairs as they considered as members of the family ----- 80 # 6) Request for sacrifice of an animal which is slaughtered for them 7) Cause illness or mental disturbance to members of a family if they are disregarded or disobeyed. Preserve the culture of a community 9) Welcome those who die to the spirit world. LESSON THREE: RESPONSIBILITY OF THE LIVING TOWARDS GOD, SPIRITS, AND ANCESTORS Learning outcome. After studying this lesson, you should a. State responsibilities of the living to God, spirits, and ancestors b. Explain the various forms of worship Responsibilities of living include Human beings are expected to worship God, spirits and ancestors and show (i) reverence and respect or veneration to God. They are also expected to (i) pray (ii) sing and (iii) dance. Worship. This is our major responsibility as God expects us to meet and communicate with the spiritual world and God. There are several ways of worshipping God. These include among others: (a) Sacrifices and offerings. Sacrifices include shedding of blood of animals and birds. Offerings are in the form of foodstuffs, milk, water and honey. God was worshipped because He is recognized as the absolute owner of life and property. We also worship God in order to (i) invoke Him for special blessings (ii) thank Him (iii) express our personal fellowship and communion with God (iv) avert or prevent evil. Evils bring about epidemics, famine, floods, and drought. (b) Singing and dancing. Africans worshipped God through singing, dancing, clapping of hands, ----- 81 # drumming, and use of musical instruments. (c)Prayers, invocations and blessings. Prayers were accompanied with sacrifices or offerings. Community leaders prayed to God, spirits and ancestors. (d) Invocations are shortened form of prayers e.g. Help me oh God Oh great God. These are prayers at the spur of the moment. They are few words full of meaning and calling for help form God. (e) Formal blessings. An elder or older person gave blessings. It is believed that the person blessing the other one is doing so on behalf of God. (f) Venerations. Africans treated their ancestors with great respect and honor. They for example worshiped ancestors daily. Worshipping included placing food or pouring libation of beer, milk, water and honey for the spirits. As this act was done, they uttered words to accompany the offerings. Libations were done daily by some communities. (g). Ancestors were honored by: Mentioning their names at prayers was offered to God. Naming children after them. Inviting them to participate in family ceremonies and rituals. For example during birth, and initiation. Maintaining their graves well. Giving the dead a decent burial Communication with spirits Diviners and mediums talk with spirits. To do so, they sit quietly in a place; singing, dancing and ----- 82 # clapping their hands. As they dance, sit and sing, diviners lose their senses and get possessed by the spirit. The spirits speak give them messages for individuals and communities. Spirits communicate on issues such as (i) lost property (ii) revealing by name the enemy in the society (iii) making demands on the living (iv) giving advice (v) giving warnings on impending danger and (vi) making promises to bless a family or clan. Spirits that possess mediums are not harmful. There are bad evil spirits harmful to people whom they possess. Some evil spirits cut themselves; others throw themselves into a fire, river, and lake. Revision questions a) Explain African beliefs about god ( or qualities) b) Describe the African understanding of the hierarchy of being c) Describe the role of the ancestors to the living d) What was the responsibility of the living towards God? e) Describe the T.A. ways of worshipping God. TOPIC EIGHT: AFRICAN MORAL AND CULTURAL VALUES Learning Outcomes By the end of the topic, you should be able to a Explain the meaning of life and its wholeness in the traditional African society b Explain the African concept of community and kingship system c Outline the factors contributing to harmony and mutual responsibility in the African communities d Describe rites of passage and their role inculcating moral values in the traditional African society e Explain the role of religious specialist and their relevance in modern society ----- 83 # f Explain the African moral values g Discuss and evaluate continuity and change in the African understanding of leisure, dress, old age, widows, orphans, dowry, community, land, medicine, worship and property. LESSON ONE: MEANING OF LIFE AND ITS WHOLENESS IN THE TRADITIONAL AFRICAN SOCIETY Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson you should be able to:- 1. Describe the meaning and wholeness of life in the traditional African society 2. Describe the African understanding of a community Life originates from God and it progress from one stage to another with a certain rhythm each person has to follow. Each stage of life is marked by rites of passage. Life is continuous and unending. Each person is expected to value life and to be responsible. Life involves sharing. It is immoral to be greedy and self centred. People are to be hospitable, warm and caring toward other people. Unity and harmony are to be upheld. Life is viewed as whole only if a person went through all the stages or rites of passage Life was propagated through bearing children. Life cannot be divided into religious and secular. Every element of life has a religious meaning. Life is communal. Life was celebrated at every stage. Everyone depends on others. Labour was divided. There were duties for men, children and women. In African traditional society, human life is precious. Murder was condemned harshly. Suicide was ----- 84 # considered the worst thing anyone could do. It was seen as a curse on the family. If one died at childhood, it was regarded as abortion. Death did not mark the end of life. Death is referred to as saying goodbye to food, sleeping, going home, being called by the ancestors. African concept of a community A community is a group of people who share a common language, religion, and culture and may live in the same geographical location. This group of people or an ethnic group shares common interests and characteristics. For example, African communities: Share common features, and interests Have the same origin and are likely to be related by blood. Share a common language. Live together and inhabit the same geographical location. Are divided into smaller units called clans A clan is made up of people who have the same forefather. A clan is composed of families. A family is made up of members (living or dead) who are related by blood and marriage. Family members therefore include the ancestors and the unborn. LESSON TWO: KINSHIP SYSTEM IN AFRICAN COMMUNITIES Learning outcomes. After studying African kinship system in African communities, you should be able to: a. Explain the importance of kinship system b. Give factors that contribute to harmony and mutual responsibility Kinship refers to the relationships between people. These can be by blood, marriage or adoption. People that belong to the same kinship system are referred to as kin. ----- 85 # Importance of kinship system and ties Kinship relationships were and still are important among African communities. This is because these ties: i Provided company. This ensured that people were not lonely. ii Provided a sense of belonging which one of the human needs. We all want to belong iii Controlled social relationships between people related by blood or marriage. iv Promoted mutual responsibility and help v Enhanced a sense of security which is a human need vi Regulated marital customs, rules and regulations. vii Enabled people to live peacefully and in harmony. viii Bind the community together enhancing social cohesion and loyalty to each other ix Facilitated care for the disadvantaged members of community. x Ensured that all members of the community are have knowledge of community beliefs and practices xi Provided a peaceful way of settling disputes. xii Provided mechanisms for proper inheritance of property for example land. Factors contributing to harmony and mutual responsibility in African communities. These are many. Some of them are (i) rites of passage (2) good morals (3) participation in communal activities such as ceremonies, work, leisure activities and worship (4) sharing of property and ideas (5) division of labour. Tasks were distributed according to ones age, gender and status. (6) rules/social norms regulated how ----- 86 # people grew up; knowing what is wrong and right. Good morals help people to live in peace and harmony LESSON THREE: RITES OF PASSAGE Learning outcomes. I expect you to read this lesson and a. Name the main stages of human life b. Explain the rite of circumcision in your community c. Narrate initiation rituals d. Discuss the importance of marriage in your community with peers e. State the importance of funeral and burial rites. In traditional African society, there were four main stages of life. These were (i) birth and naming (ii) initiation (iii) marriage and (iv) old age and death Birth and naming When a woman conceived, and pregnancy was visible, she was treated specially. She wore charms to keep away evil eyes. She ate special food and avoided sexual relations. The family and husband did not expect her to perform heavy task. When she was ready to deliver, mid wives helped in delivery. After delivery, the placenta was seen as a sign of fertility hence it was buried in the fertile land such as a banana plantation. Some communities preserved placenta while others threw it into a running stream. Birth The arrival of a baby and its sex was announced through ululations or shouts. The placenta was disposed off ceremoniously. The mother was purified and baby protection rites were conducted. Once purified, a ----- 87 # mother could wear charms to protect herself and the baby from malicious spirits, sorcery, witchcraft, and evil eyes. Thanksgiving ceremonies were performed to show gratitude to God. The hair of the mother and child was shaved as a sign of purification and newness of life. Naming Naming of babies was carefully chosen. A baby could be named after either a season, weather, ancestors, place or time of delivery, occasion, experience of mother during delivery, significance events such as war, and drought, personality of the child, and names of heroes and gods. A good example is the name Were amongst the Luhya. Twins had special names. Initiation the second rite of passage. There were different types of initiations such as circumcision for boys and clitorisdectomy for girls, excision of teeth and body marks. Initiation rites were important and every individual was expected to go through them or be rendered an outcast. Initiation practices were seen as tests for courage and bravery. They helped the communities when identifying future leaders and warriors. Initiation was very important in communities where it was practiced. Initiation marked a transition from childhood to adulthood. In this transition, the initiate acquired new rights, new status in life, and privileges. For example the new initiates were allowed to marry, own property, and inherit the fathers ----- 88 # property. In addition the initiates received specialized education. They were taught how to behave as adults, warriors, future husbands and parents. The education brought families, relatives and friends together. This act strengthened kinship ties. It also prepared the initiates to face the difficulties and challenges of adult life. In addition, initiation helped to structure the community. Initiation was programmed to fit an age set; and it marked passage of specific time. Thus each initiation ceremony was held regularly, normally between 16 21 years of age. If you calculate, you can see that 16 to 21 years introduced a new age set or group of young people. The age set held power for 16 to 21 years and handed over to the new generation. Initiation was therefore a mark of identity. It gave the initiate a sense of belonging. It bonded the initiates together with the ancestors. Initiation rituals are not popular today as they were in the past. This is because many communities have undergone social and cultural changes because of modern education. As a result some families take their sons to hospitals to be circumcised to prevent HIV/AIDs and to avoid infections because of unhygienic traditional initiation practices. Other reasons are (i) urbanization and migration, (ii) individualization (iii) Christians religious values. These have made some communities abandon some rites e.g. clitorisdectomy and (iv) some countries ----- 89 # have made girls circumcision illegal and an issue of human and health rights. Attitude to birth and naming There has been a change in attitude to birth and naming. This is because initiation is no longer a community but a family affair. In addition, pregnant women attend antenatal clinics. Majority of pregnant women give birth in hospitals and health centres. Thus a doctor and not a midwife announce the sex of the baby. In modern society, the mother and child are no longer secluded. Lastly most parents prefer western names for their babies. Marriage was a requirement for all members of the community. It was a source of status in the community. Since a leader had to be married. Young men and women married after initiation. Marriage was a happy occasion and a source of wealth. The father gave young initiates some animals for dowry. Fathers of girls received dowry payments, as bride price was mandatory. It was given to the parents of the girl in form of (a) Cows (b) Goats (c) Camels (d) Jewellery (e) Poultry. The young men inherited the fathers property. Importance of dowry. Dowry unified the community. When young women were married, their parents lost their labour. Dowry payments compensated for this loss. Men paid dowry as a sign of commitment to their wife and parents. Importance of marriage ----- 90 # Marriage was sacred. It was and ordained by God. Marriage created new social relationships and expanded web of kinships. During the marriage ceremonies the whole community rejoiced, and feasted together. The newly married couple learnt new knowledge and skills. The community and society respected the newly married couple. Children born from this union propagated and ensured continuity of family, and the community. Modern community and marriage. There has been a change in attitude towards marriage. As a result: marriage is no longer seen as sacred and divorce is common. In addition, dowry has been commercialized, as it is no longer seen as important. Some young men do not pay dowry. In fact marriage is no longer seen as a sign of status Children were important in marriage. Barren women were frowned upon. Polygamy solved issues of childlessness. Couples without children can now adopt them from the Child Welfare society. Divorce. This was very rare. It happened only if the girl (i) was not a virgin (ii) practiced witchcraft (iii) and did not show respect towards her husband. Old age and death. This is the age of wisdom. Old people were respected. Grey hair was a sign of respect and wisdom. In all culture, the elders were the custodians of the law, norms and regulations. Social and religious specialists were seers, rainmakers, priests, diviners, and medicine men among others ----- 91 # Death. Old age is followed by death. It was seen as a transition into the spiritual life. Besides old age, many cultures believed that death was due to either breaking of the traditional customs and taboos, curses, evil spirits, witchcraft, war, diseases and epidemics. Burial rites were performed in many African communities. Disposing of the dead body. Several methods were used to dispose the body. These were burials, leaving bodies in the forest, and throwing body to animals or placing the body in an abandoned house. African communities believed that animals carried the spirit of the dead person to the next life. Burial rites were performed by the bereaved. They buried the body with ones person belongings and tools. Thus if a person was a great warrior, he was buried with a war coat. Celebrations accompanied funeral rites. Funeral songs (dirges) were performed. There was drinking and eating. Importance of funeral and burial rites Burial rites created a good relationship between the dead and the living. They were therefore given to appease the world of spirits, express unity in the society, cleanse the remaining relatives and obey the customs of the community. Rituals that were performed depended on the community. Some of the rituals for the dead included. a) Shaving of heads. Some mourners shaved their hair completely, while others shaved in a specific pattern. b) Dancing and singing, and giving gifts to the bereaved family ----- 92 # c) Mourning (d) Drum beating (e) Horn blowing 9f) Grave side fires Here are some questions to make you think about marriages 1. In your opinion, what has brought changes in modern marriages? 2. Explain why divorce is rising in Kenya and Africa. 3. What changes do we see in contemporary marriages? 4. What has brought about these changes? 5. What are the major causes of death in Kenya today? LESSON FOUR: RELIGIOUS SPECIALISTS AND THEIR RELEVANCE IN MODERN SOCIETY Learning outcome. After studying this lesson, 1. Identify religious specialists 2. State the role of medicine men, priests, mediums, prophets, diviners, and seers 3. Describe roles of herbalists, elders, and rainmakers 4. Explain the role of religious specialists in your culture Religious specialists include Medicine men / healers, Herbalists, Diviners, Mediums, Prophets / Seers, Rainmakers, Priests and Elders. Religious specialists were given power by their parents who taught them religious duties. Others received divine call through dreams and visions. A few learnt from experts via apprenticeship. This is learning by observing and practicing what one sees the master teacher doing. Roles of the medicine women/men in the Community. Medicine women/men are healers who were and are respected by the community. This is because they were and are able to: 1) Treat and heal the sick 2) Solve serious and complicated chronic illnesses ----- 93 # 3) Give medicine in form of powder, herbs, minerals or liquid form and observed patients swallowing, drinking, sniffing, and applying on the skin. 4) Offer prayers and sacrifices to God 5) Give charms to protect individual persons from evil spirits. 6) Perform specialized medical roles in some communities in spite of the fact that we have modern hospitals, counselors and psychologists. Elders were and still are community leaders. They were not religious specialists but the community gave elders duties, which made them close to religious leaders. Herbalists and their relevance. Herbalists were synonymous with witch doctors. They cured people through herbs just like the medicine women/men. Communities belief: that herbalists are witchdoctors and possess magical powers. Herbalists continue to be consulted as witch doctors or waganga. Today herbalists do religious tasks that were traditionally done by diviners. Diviners were able to find hidden secrets and knowledge; reveal witches and thieves. They communicated with spirits and enhanced the work of healers and medicine people. They worked as medicine people and were healers of people. They used magic powers and predicted future occurrences. They used items such as pebbles, water, bones or gourds in divination. They also warned of future calamities. They were mediators between God, ancestors and the people. To be a diviner, one had to be trained. There was a specialized curriculum prepared by diviners. ----- 94 # Relevance of diviners in modern society. Diviners (witchdoctor mganga) are not popular today and are hardly consulted. But the unfortunate Kenyans consult them who: need a job, promotion, and children. This consultation is secret. Mediums were channels of communication between the living and the spirits of peoples ancestors. The ancestor spirits possessed mediums and through them ancestors gave information and messages to their relatives. Priests were religious leaders and functionaries. They were intermediaries between people, ancestors, spirits and God. Their work was to make sacrifices and give offerings on behalf of the people. They officiated during planting and harvesting rituals. They offered prayers and blessed the needy. They cared for the shrines and poured libations to the ancestors. They led the community in public worship. They were political heads and judges. Today, traditional priests are not relevant since most Kenyans follow several religious practices like Christianity, Hindus, Islam and many others. But there are however, a few traditional priests who take care of community shrines. Prophets / Seers predicted the future. They foretold events such as invasions, wars, drought, and epidemics. They gave advice. They also performed religious duties. They could bless and curse. Religious prophets are common today but traditional prophets are not common. Rainmakers were responsible for bringing or withholding rain to a community. They interpreted weather ----- 95 # conditions. They performed certain rituals like asking God for rains. They were highly respected in the society. Modern science has replaced rainmakers Meteorological departments have made the rainmakers redundant. Elders were custodians of community values and secrets. They acted as educators. They gave punishment to offenders of social norms/rules. They acted as counselors and guided the youth on matters of sex and marriage. They helped in maintaining roles for important religious functions, such as rites of passage. They were political leaders in the community. They were negotiators and solved conflicts since they settled family disputes especially agreements concerning land. They were custodians of the traditional values, customs and history of the people. Relevance. Elders are relevant in modern society. They are referred to as village elders and are recognized by the government of Kenya. LESSON FIVE: AFRICAN MORAL VALUES Introduction. African communities were regulated by a strict code of laws and moral values. In this lesson we shall study moral values, which regulated individual members of society as well as the community itself. Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should 1. Give examples of cultural values 2. Define moral values 3. Identify forms of misconduct 3. State a punishment for each misconduct ----- 96 # What is a cultural value? These are community practices and beliefs. Each community has cultural values that it accepts and upholds. These cultural values are laws, customs, and forms of behaviour, regulations, rules, observances and taboos. The cultural values form a moral code, which regulates the community. For example, if the culture, values private property, it will have laws that forbid theft of property. These laws are cultural values. Cultural values influence the social order and peace. God gives peace and harmony. God is seen as the giver and guardian of the law. Disobedience was and still is regarded as evil, wrong and was and still is punishable by law. What is a moral value? Moral values are standards of behaviour towards others. They are based on what is valued by the community. Moral values are also positive attitudes. Each community decided what is important to it and what is desirable for its members to practice and uphold. The moral values that communities observed were many. They included amongst others: 1. Hospitality and Love for self and others. This is the habit of welcoming all people, treating oneself and others well. Members of the community were taught how to be hospitable to visitors, strangers and how to assist the needy. 2. Honesty. This is developing good habits like telling the truth, Loyalty, Respect, Co operation with all. 3. Obedience to parents, elders, community leaders and elders. Cultural regulations were followed and ----- 97 # adhered to leading 4. Caring for others. This is being responsible to members of the community 5. Developing social moral behaviour like Humility, Sharing, Responsibility, Chastity, Integrity, Tolerance, Perseverance, and Courtesy 6. Working Hard. Do chores. These were according to sex, age and social- economic status. 7. Cooperation. Members cooperated and worked together with others. Moral values were learnt in the process of socialization. Leisure activities helped in acquisition of moral values. Learning moral values was a lifelong process. The most valued behaviour was obedience. Children were to obey their parents; wives obey their husbands; community obeys their leaders, and elders. Learning to obey was a life long process. An obedient person was respected and rewarded. Misconducts. There were taboos that the community observed. Failure to obey community laws resulted in punishments. The community did not allow stealing of livestock. Domestic animals were the most valued private property. Individuals owned livestock while land ownership was communal. There were many forms of punishment for stealing livestock and committing other crimes. For example a. Payment of heavy fines to replace stolen livestock b. Being beaten in a sack c. Thrown down a hill ----- 98 # d. Cast out of community. Thieves and murders built their homes at the outskirts of the community. They were not allowed to interact anymore with the members of the community. e. Being covered with dry banana leaves and then set on fire. LESSON SIX: CONTINUITY AND CHANGE Introduction Learning outcome. From this lesson, you should be able to: 1. Compare traditional and modern way of life 2. Trace property ownership in traditional and modern communities 3. Explain how money economy has affected the traditional way of life 4. State how communities can look after orphans, widows, and old people Community. Formal education introduced the western way of life. Employment and trade forced Africans to leave their villages to look for employment and markets in towns. These actions led to urbanization and pluralism. As a result different communities came to towns and lived together. 1. Paid employment. Workers were paid by money. The concept of money changed community life. Individualism ownership of money replaced communalism 2. Land used to be communal. There was plenty of land for everyone. But changes were brought by modern life. For example, health improved and people lived longer. There were fewer deaths and population increased. With money, there was an expansion of trade. Individuals started buying land with money instead of clearing forests. Modern life changed the concept of land. Individual started owning land. The colonial governments ----- 99 # introduced policies about land ownership in different African countries. In communities where education was accepted and money economy took over from livestock economy, communal land disappeared. Parents did not have land for inheritance. As a result, people moved and bought land away from their ancestral birthplaces. This resulted in both migrations and immigrations. 3. Property. Traditionally property included land, cattle (Livestock), women/ wives, and children. In African traditional culture, this property belonged to men or the first-born son in paternal societies. In maternal communities, it belonged to wives and daughters. Today property or wealth is in different forms such as money, buildings, vehicles, land, shares, stock, jewels, insurance, and others. Women, men and children own property. Because of this, the status of a person is measured by property. Dowry Bride price / bride wealth In African societies, bride price was very important. It was given in various forms. For example cows, animals skin, and camels. Today dowry is commercialized. Its mainly in form of cash money. This has made marriage costly for the poor. Some young people are staying together without a formal wedding in church or in the community. Others do not want to pay dowry. Young couples are living together in what is called come we stay arrangements. 4. Health Medicine ----- 100 # In traditional society, Illness was caused by witchcraft, sorcery, bad omen, or curses. Diviners, herbalists, and healers treated the sick people. Today bacterial, viruses, or environmental factors, cause illnesses. These are treated by nurses, and doctors; in hospitals and health centres. There is however a craze for herbalists. The communities are consulting herbalists and are taking herbal tea, and medicine 5. Dress Mode of dressing varied between countries. It was dependent on the type of climate. African communities were clothes made from skins or hides, leaves of bananas and trees. Women wore beads, and necklaces for decoration. Modern mode of dressing is a mixture of African, Asian and European wear. There are clothes for men, women, and unisex. African and western ornaments are worn for beauty and style. 6. Worship. Worship is an important activity in African communities. There are different forms of worship, which are done in various places. Those who were converted to Islam worship in Mosques. Those converted to Hinduism worship in temples. Christians worship in churches. The few traditional African communities continue to worship their ancestors in shrines. These are very few. But a few groups are turning back to traditional worship and reviving worship of ancestors and spirits, and their traditional God. For example Mungiki a cult in Kenya, made up of young people, worship the ----- 101 # traditional Ngai and practice traditional culture. Traditional religions have many offerings such as foodstuffs and sacrifices such as goats, cows, sheep and chicken. Human sacrifice has been discarded. It is illegal, and it is murder. In the news, we have heard of cases of body parts being stolen from a dead body in mortuary probably for religious rituals. This is illegal and a criminal offence. Modern offerings in most religious institutions consist of money. 7. Death changes immediately the status of families. Mothers and fathers become widows and widowers. Children become orphans. Many parents, wives and husbands have died because of HIV / AIDS, road accidents, diseases and other modern calamities. They have left orphans, widows and widowers. Orphans used to be looked after by grandmothers, brothers and uncles. Today government, churches, charities, NGOs, well-wishers, and guardians, the elder sibling looks after orphans. Some orphan sisters and brothers drop out of school to look after the rest. Some orphans have ended up in the streets because there is no one to look after them Widows. Traditionally brothers inherited widows. However, widow inheritance is being discouraged to prevent HIV / AIDS. But on the other hand, widows are encouraged to remarry as society has become individualistic and no longer assists community members as an obligation. ----- 102 # Widowers are not inherited and many of them remarry soon after the death of their wives. 8. Old age. In traditional African communities, old people were respected. But now old age is not respected. The aged are seen as a burden to their children. This is because the need medical care, food, and other forms of care to meet their needs. Most of them are neglected and mistreated. In traditional communities, children took care of their aged parents. Today some children care for their parents. Fortunately, churches have set up homes for the aged. An example is Nyumba za wazee. A few old people can look after themselves since they have pension schemes, life insurance policies, income generating projects, investments and bank deposits. They can care for themselves. Revision questions a) What is the significance of the kingship system b) Outline and explain factors contributing to harmony and mutual responsibility in the traditional African society c) What was the purpose of the bride wealth in the traditional African society? d) Explain the role of medicine men in the African communities and their relevance today. STUDY ACTIVITIES Read the Bible quotations given Carry out role-plays e.g. the sacrifice of Isaac by Abraham Consult the aged to assist in the understanding of African traditional practices ----- 103 # Form one answers Topic: one 1.What is the importance of reading the Bible? Strengthens peoples faith. Helps in spreading the gospel. Helps in composition of songs and hymns. Acts as a reference when we write its translations and other books. Promotes good relationship between God and man. 2. In society, people in schools, crusades, churches, lodgings, homes, and hospitals read the Bible. 3.In the government, the Bible is used for swearing in the Courts, Parliament and Cabinet when members of parliament are nominated to become ministers of the government. 4.The major divisions of the Bible are the old and the new testaments. Read 1.3.4. Above for more information 2. What are the effects of Bible translation on African languages? The Effects of Bible translation into African languages The translations increased and deepened peoples faith in God. They also led to the establishment of schools. The Gospel spread to local communities and many of them became Christians. The missionaries and colonialists learnt African Languages. This led to the promotion of African languages. This helped the African converts to judge when the missionaries were unfair or when they practiced inequality of races. 8. Why is the Bible referred to as (a) a Library and (b) the Word of God (a) The Bible is referred to as a Library because its: 1. Books are arranged in a series and in order. 2. A reference book ----- 104 # 3. Is a book of literary works 4. Books were written under different situations and circumstances 5. Books are many 1. Inspiration is a process through which God took the initiative to prompt and enlighten the writers of the Bible its Godly influence. TOPIC TWO: CREATION AND THE FALL OF MAN 1. Find answers on the differences between the two creation stories in lesson four 2. Traditional African view of creation is in lesson four. Africans view was that: God is the architect of the world God existed from the very beginning of time God created everything from nothing God provides for the needs of human beings, animals, and all creation God continues to create through human beings 3. Human beings continue with the work of creation in lesson four 4. The origin of sin and evil read again lesson five 5. Consequences of sin in lesson five When Adam and Eve sinned Mans friendship with God changed to fear of GOD What had been innocent and good became shameful Relationship between GOD and man was damaged and became spoilt Man began to toil for food, safety and other basic needs Pain became part of human experience Death sentence was passed 6. Consequences of evil are in lesson six Africans understand evil as barrenness, war, drought, epidemics, madness, sickness, death, burning in a house and others ----- 105 # 7. Gods plan of salvation is lesson seven. The lesson tells us that GOD saved human kind by providing: Clothing for Adam and Eve Means to find food A decree to defeat serpent through the seed of the woman A solution in which he choose Abraham and separated him from others A delivery of Israelites from Egypt Prophets with messages for Israelites The Messiah to die on the Cross to save humankind 8. Compare the biblical concept of sin and the African concept of evil. Similarities: Both agree that God is good and did not create evil. In both, sin is a result of disobedience, greed and selfishness of humankind. In both cases, sin leads to human suffering. Both hold the view that sin/evil befalls humankind in the form of a curse. Sin brings separation between God and man. In both, there is reconciliation and forgiveness between God and man. Thus sin does not end a relationship. Differences In the bible, the serpent is seen as the cause of sin whereas in many Traditional African communities, the spirits of the dead causes evil. In the bible, there is external punishment (hell) for sinners while the African communities believe that punishment is here on earth. Biblically, human beings are born sinners because they are descendants of Adam (1st parents sin). In ----- 106 # Traditional African Community, a child is born free of evil. Biblically had taken the initiative to end sin but in Traditional African Community, man does through sacrifice to the ancestral spirits. 9. Subdue the earth in genesis 1 verse 28 TOPIC THREE: FAITH AND GODS PROMISES TO ABRAHAM. Qn 1. Explain why Abraham is referred to as the Father of Faith Faith is complete trust in somebody or something. This is because he demonstrated faith in his lifes actions. Accepting to move from his homeland to an unknown land. By accepting circumcision at an old age and change of name. Being ready to sacrifice his only son Isaac. He made altars for the worship of God at Bethel etc. He believed in a God he did not know/see. By accepting to enter into a covenant relationship with God where he gave his best animals as a sacrifice. Qn 2. Give five (5) actions from the life of Abraham that shows his faith in God Abraham obeyed Gods call and left his homeland Haran to go to an unknown land. He believed in the promises God gave him. Build altars for the worship of God, one at Schecher and the other at Bethel. Covenant accepted to make a covenant with God where he sacrificed the best of his animals. Circumcision accepting the command to circumcise himself and all male children in his household. ----- 107 # Sacrifice of son willing to offer his only son Isaac as a burnt offering to God. Qn 3. List some of the promises God gave to Abraham. Abraham and his wife Sarah would have a son. Abraham would be famous. He would become the father of a great nation. God would curse those who cursed him and bless those who blessed him. God assured Abraham of a personal protection. Many descendants like stars on the sky. The descendants would be slaves in a foreign land but God would deliver them. He would live to a ripe old age and die in peace. God would establish an everlasting covenant with him and his descendants. Some of his descendants would be kings. God would give him and his descendants land. Qn 4. Compare and contrast Jewish and Traditional African practice of circumcision A. Similarities In both communities, circumcision is taken as a physical sign of membership to the community. It involves the cutting of the foreskin. Members who refuse to be circumcised are treated as outcasts in the community. The shedding of blood is symbolic as it binds the people with God and ancestors. It has a religious significance. Special people in both do circumcision. ----- 108 # The occasions are accompanied by a ceremony which being kinsmen together. The rite is compulsory for males. The practice is handed down from one generation to the next. Names are given during the occasion. In both cases, it is done in special or religious places e.g. temple/under mugumo tree/ shrine etc. It is a command from God/ancestors. Differences For African, initiation leads to adult responsibilities such as marriage, becoming a warrior, decision- making and property ownership. In Jewish community, the boys are too young to take up responsibility. In the Jewish community, only males are circumcised while in the Traditional African Community, both boys and girls are. For Jews, one remains a child while in the Traditional African Community, they move from childhood to adulthood. Jewish community circumcise at the age of eight days while in the Traditional African Community, it is at puberty. Among the Jews, it is a sign that they have become Gods people, but in Traditional African Community, one is bound to the ancestors. The Jewish circumcision is a command from God as a sign of their covenant with him while Traditional African Communities do it in obedience to the customs and traditions of their duty. ----- 109 # The rite, taken place on the 8th day of both in Jewish community while in the Traditional African Communities, it occurs after every four six years. Done to individuals in Jewish community while it is done to a group of age mates in the Traditional African Communities. No seclusion period among Jews as is the case in most African communities. In African communities, the ceremony enables them to choose future leaders, which is not the case with the Jews. Helps one endure suffering (pain) in future in the African communities unlike in the Jewish communities. Only one form of initiation (cutting of foreskin) is done. Various forms are practiced in the Traditional African communities. These include: Cutting of foreskin Lib/ear piercing Removal of lower teeth Scarification (putting marks on face/body) Qn 5.

It was an assurance of the fulfillment of Gods promises to Abraham. It was to unite God and the Israelites. It was to be a source of blessings to all. A starting point for the salvation of mankind, whereby he would renew the relationship between himself and man after the separation by the 1st parents. TOPIC FOUR: SINAI COVENANT. Qn a. What are the qualities of Moses as a leader? Education: he received education while in the pharaohs palace where he grew up. Jewish religion knowledge: his own mother who was his maid taught him the history of Israel. He learned leadership skills from the King as he grew up. Shepherd: herding the father-in-laws herds made him gain experience of shepherding people. ----- 112 # Life in the wilderness where he lived after killing an Egyptian gave him experience in desert life through where he would lead the Israelites. Father/parent: his marriage to Zipporah helped him learn family leadership. Later he applied this to his work. Prophet: Enabled him to foresee the future and inform the community. Miracle-maker: helped him solve problem facing his people in the wilderness e.g. lack of food, water. Lawgiver: gave laws that were used to govern the community of Israel i.e. the Ten Commandments. Hard work: worked for his father-in-law serving the family e.g. fetching water. Later he was able to serve the Jews. Qn b (i) Describe the call of Moses: Exodus 3: 1 22 God called Moses as he herded his father-in-laws flock at Mt Sinai. Moses saw a burning bush, which was not consumed. He drew nearer to get a better look. God called Moses by name from the middle of the burning bush and told him to remove his shoes because he was standing on holy ground. God told Moses that he had seen the suffering of his people in Egypt and heard their cry. He told Moses that he had chosen him to go to Pharaoh and release them from bondage. Moses objected to the task because he felt inadequate. God promised to be with Moses and to protect him. Moses asked for the name of God so that he would have a point of reference when asked who sent him. ----- 113 # God revealed himself to Moses saying, IAM WHO I AM God gave Moses power to perform miracles that he would use as proof of his work. Moses protested further saying he was a stammerer. God commissioned Aaron, Moses brother as his spokesman. Moses then told God he was afraid to go to Egypt. God assured him that the man he was afraid of was already dead. Qn b (ii) Why was Moses hesitant to Gods call? It is because he was already a criminal and wanted in Egypt after having killed and Egyptian and ran away. He was not a good speaker (stammerer). He did not know the name of God who was sending him. Qn c (i) what is the significance of the items used for the Passover feast (similar to what is the meaning of the Passover meal)? The Lamb: reminded the Israelite of the sacrificial lamb whose blood saved their 1st born from the angel of death. The unleavened bread signified purity. It too signified the hurry they had to leave Egypt, as unleavened bread is easy to bake. Roasting the meat was the easiest method of cooking. Not breaking bones and spilt blood signified forgiveness. Bitter herbs symbolized the bitterness of slavery in Egypt. Other Meanings: Eating while standing symbolized the haste with which the Israelites were to leave Egypt. They were not to leave any meal to avoid profanation in the form of flies. Burning was the simplest ----- 114 # way of disposal & sacred. Qn c (ii) Compare the Lords Supper to the Passover feast Similarities: Both are acts of salvation from suffering. Passover saved Israelites from slavery while the Lords Supper saved people from bondage of sin. Both are celebrated in memory of a past event suffering. Lambs offered in both Hebrews the Passover lamb in the Lords Supper Jesus is the paschal lamb. In both a symbolic meal was taken. In both cases each group is saved through a mediator Moses and Jesus respectfully. Gods covenant is remembered in both cases i.e. Old testament and new covenant respectfully. In both the religious significance of the feasts is taught and emphasized. Differences: In the Passover feast, animal sacrifice is offered while in the Lords Supper, Jesus was the last sacrifice and instead bread and wine are offered to represent his blood and body. Whereas the Jewish Passover was compulsory for every few, the Lords Supper is not compulsory in all Christian churches. The blood shed in the Jewish Passover is for the salvation of the Jews only while the blood of Jesus shed on the cross is for the salvation of the whole human race. Passover lamb offered in Hebrew while Jesus was the lamb offered in the Lords Supper. Qn d. Describe how the Sinai covenant was made The Israelites arrived at Mt Sinai through Gods saving power. ----- 115 # Moses was instructed by God to tell the elders to do the following in preparation for the making of the covenant. All Israelites were to cleanse themselves and wash their garments. Mark the boundaries of the mountain and avoid going near or crossing the border. Avoid sexual relations between married couple. Note: All these happened after Moses had gone up the mountain and God had promised to make the Israelites the following if they obeyed him. i. His people ii. A kingdom of priests iii. A holy nation On the third day after cleansing, Moses took the Israelites to meet their God. God manifested himself in the following forms: thunder, lightening, earthquake and a thick cloud that filled the mountain and a loud trumpet blast. Moses came down and told people about the laws which was to guide them as a covenant people. The people agreed to obey all the words the Lord had spoken (Ex 24: 3 4) Thus the covenant was made. Qn e. Describe the circumstances that led to the breaking of the Sinai covenant Moses went up the mountain to receive the stone tablets on which the Ten Commandments where written. He delayed (40 days) thus forgetting God. The Israelites became impatient. They forgot the saving power of God that had delivered them from ----- 116 # Egypt. Aaron was a weak leader who failed to lead the people to uphold the covenant. He yielded to their demands to make and worship idols. Availability of gold jewellery: used to make the calf image. Idolatry was a practice done while in Egypt so they copied/continued with it. They were used to Gods (idols). They could see while in Egypt unlike the Yahweh who was invisible. Qn f. How was the broken covenant renewed? Moses pleaded to God not to destroy the Israelites. God spared them. God commanded the Israelites to cut two stone tablets where he would rewrite the commandments. God gave conditions to be fulfilled by the Israelites in the renewal of the covenant. These were: a) To obey Gods command. b) Not to make treaties with other nations. c) To tear down the altars of the gods of other nations and temples. d) Not to worship idols. e) Not to make images to represent God. f) Not to marry foreign wives. g) To keep and celebrate the three festivals namely, Passover, feast of weeks and the feast of in gathering. h) To keep the Sabbath day holy. i) Dedicate to God 1st born male children and animals. God promised that if they obeyed Him, He would: a) Protect and preserve them ----- 117 # b) Bless them c) Make them prosper After this Moses was ordered by God to write a new set of Laws on the stone tablets. Thus the covenant was renewed. Qn g. Describe how the Israelites worshipped God in the wilderness Worship is the practice of showing respect and love for God. The Israelites showed their respect and love for God in the wilderness in the following ways: - 1) The Ark and the Tabernacle: The Ark was a wooden box where the Ten Commandments were kept. They signified the presence of God. The tabernacle was a portable tent for meeting between God and the Israelites. 2) The Sabbath: They observed the Sabbath as a sacred day for resting and worshipping God. 3) Festivals: Celebrated many festivals as one way of worshipping God. E.g. Passover. 4) Altars built them when there was need to worship God meeting place between God and the people and sacrifice to God. 5) Observance of the Ten Commandments. These guided them on how to live with God and man. 6) Religious leaders: God chose priest from the tribe of Levi to organize worship. Qn h. What is the relevance of the Ten Commandments to Christian today? Christians learn that God is a jealous God. They avoid holding other things in their lives strong in the place of God. ----- 118 # Christians learn that God is unique and cannot be represented by visible man-made objects or described in human terms. They are reminded to observe the Sabbath by worshipping God. They strive to have a good relationship with God. They are taught to respect other people and their property. They learn that long life is a result of honoring and respecting their parents. They strive to live upright and moral lives. They learn that lust for money and other property is sinful. Qn i. What did the Israelites learn about God in the wilderness? They learned that God is faithful. He keeps promises. A provider provided manna, water etc. God is the controller of natural forces e.g. Red sea, a pillar of cloud & fire, earthquakes etc. A jealous God no worship of other gods. Just forgave those who broke the covenant and punished those who refused to repent. Merciful and compassionate. Give them a 2nd chance after breaking the covenant. A God of victory helped them defeat Amalekites. God valued a personal relationship commandments given. TOPIC FIVE: LEADERSHIP IN ISRAEL Qn a. Explain the reasons against Kingship in Israel (1 Sam 8:10 20) The King would force the sons of the Israelites to serve him as soldiers in the army. The King would create forced labour and enslavement by making the young men work in his farms and in making weapons. Daughters would work in his house. He would also grab their land and give it to his loyal servants. ----- 119 # He would overtax them in order to maintain his administration. It would be seen as a rejection of Yahweh as their King. Israel would be like other nations who did not know Yahweh. Yahweh would reject them when they cried to him. Qn b. Explain the importance of David as King of Israel David was important because he was chosen by God and publicly anointed by elders in a religion ceremony. He too became ancestor of many communities. David was a great musician and wrote many songs for promising God. He killed Goliath the philistine soldier. He conquered the enemies of Israel such as Amalekites, Ammonites etc. He expanded Israel through his military conquests and marked the boundaries of the nation. He captured Jerusalem from the Jebusites and made it a capital city. He too made it a religious centre by placing the Ark of the Covenant there, which had been housed Abidjabs. He had good diplomatic relationship with other nations. He encouraged trade with other nations thus making Israel prosperous. He was a shrewd administrator who chose wise elders to advise him. He was filled with the Holy Spirit. He established the largest and most enduring dynasty that lasted 400 years. He composed the books of Psalms used to praise God. Whenever he wronged God, he genuinely repented and humbled himself before God. He was a just ruler. He respected the prophets of God and consulted them before making decisions. He was prayerful and consulted God in his undertakings. ----- 120 # He united the twelve (12) tribes of Israel. He set a good example of faithfulness to Yahweh that he wanted all the Israelites to emulate. Qn c. How did Jesus fulfil the prophecies of prophet Nathan as a descendant of David? (i.e. Areas where Jesus is mentioned as coming from David) Angel Gabriel announced the birth of Jesus to Mary who was engaged to Joseph, a descendant of David. The Angel referred to Jesus as the King whose wisdom would last forever (Lk 1:26-33). Jesus was born in Bethlehem the birth place of David (Lk 2: 4 5) Abraham and David are mentioned as the ancestors of Jesus. During the triumphant entry into Jerusalem, the crowds who met him sang with joy and shouted Hosanna to the son of David. On the days of Pentecost when Peter addressed the crowd, he referred to Jesus as a descendant of David (Acts:2 29-35). Zechariah in his Benedictus, says that God has promised a savior descended from the house of David (Lk 1:69) The blind man at Jericho referred to Jesus as the son of David (Lk 18:38). Qn d. What was the failure of King Solomon? Solomon was the 2nd King of Israel, succeeding his father King David. He failed to live according to the covenant way of life in the following ways. He married foreign wives thus breaking the Toral that clearly stated that the Israelites should not marry foreigners because they can come with their gods idols. ----- 121 # He allowed the wives to worship their gods (idols) thus leading to spread of idolatry in Israel. He not only worshipped the gods of his wives but also built temple for their worship. He, by worshipping the gods became a bad example to Israel, as King. They copied him. Although he built Gods temple, he erred in many ways: i. He built his palace for 13 years but took only 7 years to build Gods temple. Shows he loved himself more the God. ii. He used foreign designs and materials in the construction of the temple, ignoring Gods specifications on how to build it. iii. He liaised pagan craftsmen from Tyre to design, decorate and furnish the temple. He broke the sixth commandment by killing his half brother, Adonijah. He suspected that Adonijah would become his rival to the throne. He spent a lot of Israels money on his lavish lifestyle. He had a large army and servants. He overtaxed the people to meet the amount. He used forced labour in his development projects. He enslaved young men and women who went to work in the palace as servants for the wives. He practiced nepotism. He exempted them from forced labour. He sold part of Israel sold 20 towns of Galilee to King of Tyre as payment of a debt he could not pay contrary to Gods command. He made treaties with other nations that were against the condition set during the renewal of the ----- 122 # Sinai covenant. In the above ways, he oppressed the people of God. Qn e. Which leadership qualities can modern leaders learn from David? Justice: A good leader is one who does not favour some people like David (I Sam 24: 1 12). Courage: David showed this while fighting Goliath. Leaders need to be brave and courageous in their work (I Sam 17:41 54). Fear of God and Faith: David consulted God before any undertaking. Leaders should do the same. Gratitude: David was thankful to blessings he received. Leaders should be happy and grateful to God. Loyalty: Modern leaders should remain loyal to their office.

Humility: Leaders should not hesitate to ask for forgiveness from God and people. David was humble and asked for forgiveness any time he went wrong. Willingness to delegate: Learn to delegate future as David did (2 Sam 20: 23 26) Wisdom: Be wise in choosing legal advisers as David did. Respect: Leaders should show respect to God and preaches those they serve as David did to the prophets and his people. TOPIC SIX: LOYALTY TO GOD- ELIJAH. Qn a. Qualities of Elijah that led to his achievements ----- 123 # Elijah was fearless and courageous. His courage helped him to face king Ahab and queen Jezebel and condemn them for their wickedness such as corruption and idolatry He was faithful to God. Yahweh guided him in his dealings with Baal prophets and king Ahab. He lived a simple life. For example, he wore simple clothing made of carmels skin. He stood for the covenant at a time when the religion of Yahweh was in danger He had the power of God in him and was able to control rain. He confirmed that Yahweh had authority over land and over the people. b) Schism is sharp religious, social, political differences within a group or organization Syncretism is the process of mixing religious beliefs and practices c) Some characteristics of Elijah that a modern Christian should strive to emulate 1) Courage 2) Faithfulness 3) Zealousness for God 4) Concern for the needy / poor 5) Provision of social justice 6) Patience Qn d. What were the effects of idolatry in Israel? Syncretism developed where the Israelites worshipped Yahweh alongside the gods of Canaan. The Israelites started calling Yahweh by the names used for Canaanites gods e.g. El. The Israelites started naming their children after Canaanite gods like Baal. ----- 124 # They changed their religion calendar and celebration to correspond with their Canaanite celebrations and feasts. They converted the high places used for worshipping Baal to Yahwehs shrines without removing the graven images of idols. The unity that existed between the two tribes of Israel was destroyed. They no longer treated one another as brothers. The Kings of Israel behaved like the Canaanites leaders by oppressing the weak and grabbing other peoples property. The people neglected Yahwehs holy places. Gods prophets were mistreated, persecuted and even killed. God withdrew his blessings from the Israelites because they angered Him by worshipping other gods. They broke Gods commandments, which forbade worship of other god a part from Yahweh. The Israelites practiced temple prostitution and other Canaanites rituals and sacrifices. Qn e. Describe Elijahs fight against false religion in Israel Elijah rose to challenge false religion at a time when Baalism had become the official religion. He prophesied a three and a half years drought because the people had turned away from Yahweh. After the drought God appeared to Elijah and told him to go to King Ahab and tell him that the drought was as a result of idolatry in Israel. Elijah requested the King to order all the people to meet at Mt Carmel to hold a contest. ----- 125 # Elijah asked the King to invite the 400 prophets of Asherah and Baals 450, saw that they could prove who the true God is. Elijah would sacrifice a bull and the false prophets would too sacrifice their own to call on their Gods to send fire. The one who could send is the true God. The prophets of Baal were the 1st to pray to their god but he never sent fire. The prophets cut themselves with knives to please their god but he never sent it. Elijah then prepared the altar with 12 pillars representing the 12 tribes of Israel. He dug a trench around the altar, placed wood and put the cut bull on top of the wood. He ordered for water to be poured around the trenches until it flooded. Then in the evening Elijah prayed and called upon the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to send fire. Fire came and consumed the whole sacrifice, including the water in the trenches. As a result, the Israelites bowed down and declared that Yahweh was the true God. Then Elijah ordered the killing of all the prophets of Baal and the prophetesses of Asherah. Elijah went to the top of the Mt Carmel and prayed for rain. Yahweh sent His servant to watch for the sign of rain from the sea. The servant looked towards the sea seven times after, which he saw a small cloud forming. Then heavy rain fell, signaling end of drought. Qn f. Describe Elijahs fight against corruption 1 Kings 21 ----- 126 # Corruption: Can be defined as dishonesty or misuse of power for personal gain. In a corrupt society, the rich and powerful people tend to take advantage of the weak/poor by exploiting them and denying them their rights. King Ahab of Israel desired a fruitful vineyard owned by a man named Naboth. King Ahab approached Naboth to sell him the vineyard or exchange with another one. Naboth declined the offer because in Israel, selling ancestral land was against the covenant law. The land belonged to God. Jezebel, Ahabs wife, soon learned, Naboths refusal and she arranged Naboths murder through false accusations. After Naboth was killed, Ahab possessed the vineyard. God commanded Elijah to go and declare His judgement on Ahab for committing such an evil act in Israel. Elijah declared the following judgement on Ahab: i. Dogs would lick Ahabs blood at the same place where they had licked Naboths. ii. Ahabs dynasty would fall kike those of the Kings before him who had disobeyed God. iii. All family members of Ahab would face violent deaths. On hearing this, Ahab humbled himself before God and repented. God postponed Ahabs punishment to the days of his son. Qn g. What can Christian learn from the teachings of Elijah? ----- 127 # From the Mt Carmel incident, they learn that Yahweh controls the forces of nature can bring rain or stop it. Yahweh is the only true and living God Mt Carmel. Yahweh is forgiving pardoned those who repented on Mt Carmel. Yahweh is a jealous God. He will not share honor with any God killed the 450 prophets worshipping Baal. A prosecutor protected Elijah. A provider provided Elijah with food. Yahweh answers prayers. He is faithful. They also learn that church leaders should condemn evil like Elijah did in the case of Ahab and Naboth. Christians should work to protect the poor from exploitation. They should be prayerful so that God can help them overcome difficulties like Elijah. They should strive to lead lives free from corruption. They should remain faithful even if it means costing their lives to Naboth. Leaders should realize authority comes from God and are accountable to Him. They should avoid idolatry, which Elijah condemned. Perform tasks given by God however had they may be as Elijah did facing Ahab, killing the 450 false prophets etc. Finally, they should invite sinners to repeat and bring them back to God.

LUKES GOSPEL INTRODUCTION Matthew, Mark, Luke and John record the life of Jesus Christ and his ministry in the four Gospel books. We shall trace the life, and ministry of Jesus Christ as written by St Luke to Theophilus. St Luke was a medical doctor. TOPIC ONE: OLD TESTAMENT PROPHESIES ABOUT THE MESSIAH Introduction: Read 2 Samuel 7:13, Isaiah 7:10-16 Messiah Meaning: The word Messiah is from a Hebrew word meshiach, which means the anointed: thus a Messiah is one called, anointed and appointed by God to serve Him. Prophecy: ----- 135 # A prophecy refers to a prediction of what will happen in future.

The origin of the Messianic prophecies in the Bible starts with prophet Nathans prophecy to King David. NOTE: The Roman ruled the Israelites before the birth of Jesus. They hated the Roman leadership and longed for somebody of their own to lead them into victory over the Roman rule. The prophet of Israel (the Old Testament) communicated a message that God would send a messiah to bring all people into a lasting relationship with Him. The prophets who were sent had different ideas about the Messiah. Their ideas about the Messiah were different from the Jewish expectations whereby they hoped for political King to lead them into victory over the Roman rule.

They expected a Messiah: Who would lead his people into a time of great national power and prosperity; In whose reign, there shall be no illness, no sorrow, no injustice, In whose reign, there shall be no fear In whose reign, land shall be filled with joy and peace Who shall rule forever. Revision questions 1) Describe the prophecy of Jeremiah concerning the Messiah 2) What does the term Messiah mean? 3) Highlight the Jewish expectations of the Messiah in the Old Testament? 4) Did Jesus Christ fulfill the O.T. prophecies concerning the Messiah? How? 5) Which prophets in the Old Testament prophesied about the expected Messiah? LESSON TWO. THE CONCEPT OF THE MESSIAH IN THE NEW TESTAMENT Learning Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should be able to explain the concept of the Messiah in the New Testament The concept of messiah is found in Luke 1:26 38; 2:1-23; 23:1 35; 24:50 51. The writer of Lukes Gospel makes it clear that Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies concerning the coming of the ----- 139 # Messiah. How did He do this? Well Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies because; Jesus was born from the lineage of David (Mathew 1) Angle Gabriel said the child to be born shall rule forever (Luke 1:32) Nathans prophecy Jesus was born of Mary a Virgin, as pre told by Isaiah 7:14 Messiah is called Emmanuel, Isaiahs prophecy. Mathew 1:18 25 Jesus was born in Bethlehem Micahs prophecy The Messiah would be a Son of David Nathan, and Jeremiah prophesies. Jesus was referred to as a Son of David (Luke 18:38) Jesus would bring salvation said by Simeon during dedication of Jesus. Luke 2:29 32. This was a fulfillment of Isaiahs prophecy. Jesus referred to himself as the Messiah by reading the scroll. Isaiah 61:1 2. and Luke 4: 18 19 Isaiah prophesied that the Messiah would perform miracles. Jesus performed many miracles. The prophecy of the suffering servant (Isaiah 53) was fulfilled through the passion, death and crucifixion of Jesus Christ. We see Jesus betrayed by one of his disciples friend, fulfilling the Psalmist prophecy. Note that the Jews in the New Testament expected a messiah who would deliver them from the rule of the Romans. Jews expected Jesus to be a political leader or king. However, Peter called him the Christ of God (Luke 9:20). Matthew called him King of the Jews in chapter (2 verse 2). Hence, Jesus came as a Spiritual Leader and King, and not as a political Leader / King. ----- 140 # Self-Assessment Questions 1. What does the name Emmanuel mean? 2.

Narrate temptations of Jesus b. State relevance of the temptations of Jesus to modern Christians ----- 151 # c. State lessons that Christians can learn from temptations of Jesus a. The temptations of Jesus (Luke 4:1 13). Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit returned from Jordan into the desert. Like Elijah, Moses, He ate and drunk nothing for 40 days and nights. He was hungry after 40 days. It is at this time of weakness when the devil tempted Him. First temptation. The devil told Jesus to proof that He was the Son of God by turning the stones to become bread. Jesus however replied that it is written man does not live on bread alone to sustain him but on everything that the Lord says (Deut 8:3). Satan was telling Jesus to use his Messianic power and Spirit to obtain material security for himself and his followers for selfish, materialistic purposes. What can we learn from this temptation? Jesus was not seeking to establish a material paradise on earth. Second temptation. The devil led Jesus up to a high place (High Mountain) and showed Him in an instant all the Kingdoms of the world. He told Him that he would give Him all their authority and splendor, if He bows and worships Satan. Jesus replied it is written worship the Lord your God and serve him only. Do not worship other gods (Deut.6: 13-14). Satan wanted Jesus to use Godly power and influence. This was idolatry i.e. worshipping other gods. What can we learn from this temptation? Jesus did not come to seek a worldwide political military reign as many Jews expected Him to do. ----- 152 # Third Temptation. The Devil led Jesus to Jerusalem and had Him stand on the highest point of the temple. He told Jesus to throw Himself down if He was the Son of God for it is written that the Lord will command angels to guard him (Psalm 91:11 12). Jesus replied and said it is written, do not put the Lord your God to the test. Satan wanted Jesus to presume on Gods good care by jumping from the roof of the temple. What can we learn from this temptation? Jesus will not force belief in His Messiah ship through a spectacular sign. Notice that the temptations came after Jesus Baptism, where he had solemnly accepted the opening of his public ministry and God confirmed it. Therefore the temptations were a testing of his loyalty to Gods chosen way of life. b. Relevance of Jesus temptations to Christians Jesus, though without sin was tempted. His followers must expect to be tested in their faith. Christians learn that it is not sinful to be tempted. Since Jesus was tempted, he understands Christians difficulties when they are tempted. Jesus is always ready to help Christians to cope with temptations. Why do you think Christians are tempted? Through temptations and trials, Christians faith in God is strengthened. Christians learn to refer to the Bible for guidance when tempted. Jesus said that it is written in reference to scripture. Christians ----- 153 # should seek the Holy Spirit to give them strength to fight any form of trials and temptations. Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit went to the wilderness and was tempted by the devil In temptation, God does provide a way out. Thus followers of Jesus Christ (Christians) should not be seekers of spectacular signs. LESSON FOUR. REJECTION OF JESUS AT NAZARETH Learning Outcomes. By the end of the lesson, you should a. Describe rejection of Jesus at Nazareth b. Suggest possible reasons for rejection a. Rejection of Jesus at Nazareth (Luke 4:14 30).

During that time, it was customary for visiting Rabbis (Teachers of the law) to be given the honor of reading from the law or to address the congregation. When Jesus was given this opportunity, He opened the scroll and read from Isaiah 61: 1 3 The Sovereign Lord has filled me with his spirit. He has chosen me and sent me. Luke writes in 4 v 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has chosen me to bring good news to the poor. On completion of the reading, Jesus told them that today this scripture has been fulfilled in their hearing. From this reading Jesus referred to himself as the Messiah. The people of Nazareth in indignation wanted to kill Jesus by throwing him over a cliff. ----- 154 # b. Possible Reasons for Rejection. Jews of Nazareth rejected Jesus because one, they knew him as the son of Mary and Joseph. They did not know Him as the Son of God. Two, Jesus did not fit into the idea of a political King that the Jews were expecting. They were waiting for a King with an army and horses. Three, Jesus preaching was seen as being against that of Pharisees, Scribes and Sadducees: the religious leaders at that time. Four, Jesus pointed out evils of religious leaders. Five, a leader is never accepted at home especially in a superior or senior position. Six, Jesus did not follow the general rules of the Mosaic Law.

He was teaching people. He performed many miracles of healing. For example: i. Healing a man possessed by an evil spirit. A man was possessed by an unclean demon/spirit. He was in the synagogue. When he saw Jesus, the evil spirit shouted, Ah! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy one of God (Luke 4:34). Jesus replied, Be silent and come out of him. The Demon threw the man down and came out without doing any harm. The man was made whole. ii. Jesus heals Simons mother in law. After Jesus left the synagogue, he went to the house of Simon Peters mother in law. She had a fever, Jesus commanded the fever to leave and she was made whole immediately.

In these schools, learning was by memorization and repetition what students heard from the rabbis. The disciples of Jesus did not memorize. They learnt by observation. They were witnesses and they spoke what they heard and described or explained what they saw. Call of the first disciples Jesus entered into Simons ship and started to teach people who were there. Later, He told Simon to push off a little from the shore. Jesus sat in the boat and taught the crowd. After speaking, he told Simon, and his partners James and John; Push the boat out further to the deep waterand let down your nets for a catch of fish. Simon told Jesus that they had toiled all night, and caught nothing. But if you say so, I will let down the nets. Simon obeyed. They let down the nets and caught a multitude of fish. They called for assistance from other fishermen. When Simon Peter saw this, he told Jesus Go away from me, Lord! I am a sinful man! Jesus said to Simon Dont be afraid, from now on you will be catching people. On getting to the shore, Peter and his friends James and John sons of Zebedee forsook ----- 157 # all and followed Jesus Thus the first disciples of Jesus were Simon Peter; James and John. Lessons from the call of the first disciples 1) God can choose anybody to serve him regardless of his or her social status. 2) God still calls people to serve him in various capacities as evangelists, pastors and others. 3) Those called should repent their sins as Peter did 4) Christians should trust in God Simon Peter trusted Jesus and cast his nets even though they had caught no fish from the same spot. 5) God can intervene in peoples lives through miracles (miraculous catch of fish) 6) Christians should work together as a team.

The Sermon on the plain (Luke 6: 17 49) The Sermon on the plain is a lecture or lesson that Jesus gave to a large number of his disciples and a large crowd of people who had come from Judea, Jerusalem, tyre, and Sidon. They came to listen to the sermon of Jesus and to be healed of diseases, evil sprits. The purpose of the sermon was to teach the crowd the meaning of following Christ. Jesus covered 6 beatitudes or topics in his sermon. These are. 1) Blessings and woes beatitudes (2) Love for enemies (3) Judging others (4) Giving to the needy (5) A tree and its fruits (6) Wise and foolish builders hearing and doing the words of Jesus. We shall now discuss each of these beatitudes in detail. 1. Blessings and woes. Jesus taught that: (i) Blessed are the poor for theirs is the Kingdom of God. (ii) Blessed are the hungry for they shall be filled (iii) Blessed are those who weep now for they shall laugh (iv) Blessed are those who men shall hate, reject, reproach for the sake of Christs for their great reward is kept in heaven. (v) Woe to those who are rich, for they have already received their reward. ----- 163 # (vi) Woe to those who are full for they shall go hungry (vii) Woe to those who laugh now for they shall mourn and weep (viii) Woe to those whom people speak well, for ancestors said the same about the false prophets. Those who accept to be followers of Christ are promised blessings while those who reject Christ are to suffer in future. 2. Love your enemies. Luke. 6: 27 36. Love is often defined as a warm feeling / affection towards somebody or something. Jesus taught his followers to love their enemies and do well to those who hate you. Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who mistreat you. Do unto men as you expect them to do unto you. Lend also to your enemies. Love your enemies and do good to them. Lend and expect nothing back. Be merciful. From these teachings: true discipleship of Jesus Christ: a) Entails unconditional love even for enemies b) Doing good without expecting any returns c) Praying for those who mistreat us d) Showing love to our enemies by exhibiting Gods love in us. e) Is love; because those who love are children of the most high who is kind and merciful to the sinners. (3) Judging others Luke. 6: 37 42 Jesus taught his followers not to judge others lest they are also judged. They should not condemn others lest they are also condemned. He asked disciples to forgive others and they shall also be forgiven. True discipleship requires acknowledging ones shortcomings and avoiding criticism of others. ----- 164 # (4) Giving to the needy. A true disciple should share what they have with the needy. Those who share shall be rewarded. He also said that the blind couldnt lead the blind. There is a master and a follower. The disciple is not above his master. (5) A tree and its fruits. A healthy tree bears good fruits. A poor tree bears poor fruit. Neither does a corrupt tree bring forth good fruits. A tree is known by its fruits. Followers of Christ are evident to others by their actions. They are not hypocritical or fault finding. (6) Wise and foolish builders. A wise builder digs a deep foundation on a rock. When floods come, the house is able to stand. A foolish builder builds his house upon the sand. Without a foundation, when floods come, the house falls and is ruined. Wise builders are those who hear the word of God and do what is required. Those who do not adhere to the teachings are the unwise builders. True discipleship entails obedience to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Relevance of the lessons of the Sermon on the Plain to Christian Life Christians are urged to love even those that hate them. The challenges that followers of Christ encountered in the New Testament are not different from those that Christians experience today. Christians should forgive others, share with the needy, avoid judging others, and follow the teachings of Christ. ----- 165 # Lesson Revision questions 1. Give the main teaching of Jesus on the sermon on the plain 2. What is the relevance of the (beatitudes) sermon on the plain to Christians today? LESSON NINE. JESUS WORKS OF COMPASSION In this lesson, Jesus works of compassion is discussed. These include the works of mercy for those in distress and pity for the suffering. Jesus mission lays its foundation in these works of compassion, because He came to establish the kingdom of God by conquering all forms of suffering caused by Satan. Compassion is a feeling of empathy for other peoples sufferings. Its being merciful, showing concern and affection for others. Learning Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should be able to: a) Give examples of Jesus works of compassion b) Narrate Jesus works of compassion c) Give reasons why Jesus used parables d) Identify categories of the miracles of Jesus e) Give lessons learnt from each example in each category a. Examples of Jesus works of compassion. There are many examples of compassion i) Healing of the centurions servant (Luke 7:1 10) Centurion is an officer in charge of 100 men. Jesus healed the servant of a Roman soldier and a Gentile. The Centurion showed love and concern for his servant. The centurion sent Jewish elders to Jesus with a request to heal his servant. The leaders said this man deserves to have you do this, because he loves ----- 166 # our nation and has built our synagogue (Luke 7:5). Jesus agreed and went with the elders. But before Jesus reached the centurions house, the centurion sent his friends to stop him from coming to his house. He said that he was not worthy to have Jesus under his roof. He said that he was a man of authority. Hence Jesus could give an order and the servant would be healed. On hearing this, Jesus declared to the crowd I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel. When the men returned, they found the servant well. Lessons Christians can learn from the healing of the centurion servant. 1. Faith in God is important for healing to occur 2. We should confess our faith in Jesus. The centurion declared his faith in Jesus by saying he believed that Jesus could heal his servant by his word. 3. Christians should have compassion like Jesus. He took compassion on the servant and was ready to go and heal him. 4. Salvation was not for Jews alone, but for all who believed in Jesus. Centurion was not a Jew but a gentile officer in the Roman army. But he had faith in Jesus healing. 5. Christians should love each other regardless of their background or social status the centurion loved his servant dearly. 6. Christians should learn to relate well with all around them the centurion related well with the Jewish elders and others. 7. Jesus has power to heal any form of sickness. ----- 167 # ii) The raising of the widows son Luke 7:11 17. A widow is a woman whose husband is dead. The widow was of the city of Nain. When Jesus neared the gates of the city, he saw the funeral procession of the widows son, the only son of his mother. Jesus had compassion on the widow and told her weep not. Jesus then touched the casket and said young man I say unto you, arise. The dead sat up and began to speak. All the people were filled with fear and glorified God, saying God has visited his people. Lessons Christians learn from the raising of the widows son 1) Jesus has power over death 2) Jesus empathizes with the suffering 3) Acts of love should not be hindered by traditions Jesus touched the casket even though Jewish traditions forbid it. 4) The Widow of Nain was a gentile. This is a sign that salvation was universal. 5) The crowd acknowledged Jesus lordship; Christians should acknowledge the lordship of Jesus. What are the practices pertaining to the disposal of the dead in your culture? and community? iii) Assurance to John the Baptist (Luke 7:20 30). A question arose whether Jesus Christ was the Messiah. John the Baptist wanted to assure his disciples that Christ; was the expected messiah: and not him (John the Baptist). He sent his disciples to Jesus to ask if you are the one he said was going to come, or if we should expect someone else? (Vs. 20). Jesus ----- 168 # told the disciples of John to go back and tell John of the miracles works they saw and heard. Jesus then gave a testimony of John the Baptist as a prophet, whose life and missions is beyond that of ordinary prophets. Jesus testified that John the Baptist; was the forerunner or messenger of Jesus Christ: as the prophets in the Old Testament had written. The Pharisees and the publicans (teaches of the law) however rejected the testimony about John the Baptist. They had refused to be baptized by John. Those baptized by John the Baptist, the tax collectors acknowledged the testimony of Jesus. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees and teachers of law for their hypocrisy. In what ways were the Pharisees and teaches of law hypocritical? iv) The forgiveness of the sinful woman (Luke 7: 36 50) Jesus was invited by one of the Pharisees called Simon to his house to dine with him. In that city, there was a sinful woman. She went to the house of Simon when she learnt that Jesus was in the Pharisees house. She brought with her an alabaster jar full of perfume. She stood behind Jesus. She was weeping and washing his feet with her fears. She then wiped the tears from the feet of Jesus with her hair, kissed his feet, and anointed them with oil (an alabaster box of ointment). When Simon, the host saw this he said within himself, if this man was a prophet, he would know who this woman is who is touching him a sinful woman. Jesus told Simon a parable of a man who forgave two people that owed him money ----- 169 # one 500, the other 50. Jesus asked which of the two debtors would love him most. Simon said the one that was forgiven much, Jesus then told Simon that when he came to his house, Simon did not give him water for his feet; neither did he welcome Jesus with a kiss; nor provide him with olive oil. But the woman washed his feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair. She also kissed his feet. Jesus told the people that her sins, being many are forgiven for she loved much. Jesus turned to the woman and told her thy sins are forgiven. Thy faith has saved thee, go in peace. The people who were eating with Jesus murmured. Who was Jesus? He forgives sins. Lessons from the forgiveness of the sinful woman 1. The Jews believed that by associating with sinners, one becomes virtually defiled. Jesus however allowed the sinful woman to touch him. 2. By her actions, the woman acknowledged that she was a sinner, and repented. This was in contrast to the Pharisees who were self-righteous and therefore did not repent. 3. The Womans great love for Jesus led to her being forgiven of her sins. 4. Christians need to accept their sinful nature and seek forgiveness from God. 5. Faith in Jesus is necessary. Summary. Jesus is accepted women to be his followers unlike the Jewish customs which viewed women as lesser than men. Other women that played a key role in the ministry of Jesus include Mary Magdalene, Joann Joanna and Susanna among many others. Lesson Revision questions ----- 170 # 1. What role do women play in the church ministry? 2. Narrate the story of the forgiveness of the sinful woman (Lk 7: 36, 8:3) 3. What lessons do you learn from the above story? 4. Describe the story of the raising of the widows son at Nain (Lk 7: 11- 17) Answers Women play many roles in the church ministry. Some of these are: (i) Carrying out duties of pastors, bishops, and deacons (ii) Management. Some are heads of the women groups (iii) Leading in church service (iv) Participating as church ushers, choir singers, and youth leaders (v) Attending church. Women are part of the congregations LESSON TEN. JESUS TEACHING IN PARABLES (LK. 8: 4- 21) Introduction Jesus used parables to teach. A parable is a Greek word. It means comparing or putting side by side in order to understand. A parable is defined as a short story or description, which teaches something or answers some questions. It is an allegory an earthly story with a hidden or heavenly meaning. a. Use of parables. Jesus used parables in his teachings in order to explain unfamiliar messages in a language that his hearers could understand. Other reasons were because Jesus wanted to: 1) Provoke critical thinking 2) Make the audience understand issues from a different point of view 3) Explain the nature of the kingdom of God by giving real life examples. 4) Explain the nature of God. The parables brought out the attributes of an invisible God. For example, the parable of the prodigal son who had been lost. ----- 171 # 5) Attract the attention of his audiences so that they could listen and understand. 6) Make people understand how they should relate to one another. Read the parable of the good Samaritan 7) Teach Gods love to mankind. The parable of the lost sheep, lost coin. Separate / identify those who were sincere in seeking the kingdom of God from the onlookers. 9) Challenge the imagination of his hearers since entry to Gods kingdom was a personal decision. 10) Make an indirect attack on his opponents like the Pharisees, the scribes and the Sadducees. 11) Teach his disciples that they should be persistent and never be discouraged. 12) Make his teachings interesting and easy to understand. 1. The parable of the sower Lk 8:4 15 Jesus told this parable to the crowd that followed him. He said that a farmer went out to sow corn. He scattered seeds in the field. As he did so, some of them fell on the path, and they were trampled on and eaten by birds. Other seeds fell on the rock ground. When they germinated, they withered because they lacked moisture. Some seed fell among thorns bushes. They grew with bushes, which choked them as they grew. Some other seeds fell on fertile soil. They grew up in fertile soil and their yield was100 seed for each seed sown. Meaning or interpretation of the parable Jesus gave the meaning of the parable to his disciples. He said that the seed is the word of God. ----- 172 # i. Seed that fell on the path represents people who hear the word of God, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts so that they do not believe. Such listeners are like the seeds that fell on the path. They hear the word but soon after the devil takes away the message to stop them from believing and being saved. ii. Seed that fell on the rocky ground are people who receive the word with joy but it does not stay with them. They believe for a while but when faced with trials and temptations they stop believing and fall away. iii. Seed that fell on the thorny bushes stands for people who receive the word. However, they fail to follow their beliefs because of interference by lifes worries, riches and pressures of the world. They fail to mature as believers. iv. Seed that fell on the good soil are those people with a noble and good heart. They hear the word, and retain it in their hearts. Such people persevere and produce good harvest. v. Interpretation. The different types of soil in this parable refer to different kinds of Hearts of people. The farmer is Jesus, God or Preacher. We learn that: One should not despair and Its important to receive the word of God, practice it and persevere so as to bear fruits. 2. The parable of a lamp under a bowl (Lk.8: 16 18). Jesus taught that no one lights a lamp, then covers it with a bowl or hide it under a bed. When one lights a lamp, they put it on the lamp stand so as to ----- 173 # illuminate a room and for people to see the light. For whatever is hidden or covered up shall be revealed. In this parable Jesus is the light. The disciples had a duty to pass on to others messages they had learnt from Jesus. They should not keep messages to themselves. Interpretation. From this parable of a lamp under a bowl, we learn that: i A Christian has a duty to share the knowledge of God with others ii One cannot be a Christian if this knowledge is hidden iii Those who do not share may loose their beliefs. 3. Jesus mother and brothers. Luke 8:19 21 The mother of Jesus and brothers came to see him. Someone told Jesus that they were there. He told the crowd. My mother and brothers are those who hear the word of God and obey . Accepters and believers are the members of the family of Jesus. Lesson Revision Questions 1. Give reasons why Jesus used parables 2. Identify various methods used by Christians in spreading the gospel today 3. Discuss the reasons why Jesus faced opposition fro the Jewish leaders. LESSON ELEVEN: MIGHTY WORKS OF JESUS Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson a. Organise in categories miracles performed by Jesus b. Narrate each miracle c. Discuss the significance of the miracle and lessons to learn Jesus continued to do miracles; and teach. His work is referred to as the mighty works of Jesus in various books. Miracles can be defined as acts of power whose purpose is to establish the kingdom of God. ----- 174 # Miracles can also mean extraordinary events that go against the laws of nature. a. Categories / types of miracles Jesus performed four types of miracles. These were: 1) Nature miracles miracles that dealt with nature e.g. calming of the storm 2) Raising of the dead e.g. Jairus daughter 3) Healing miracles healing Simons mother in law of fever, healing of the woman with the flow of blood. 4) Exorcism miracles casting out of evil spirits e.g. the Gerasene demonic i) The calming of the storm One day, Jesus entered a boat with his disciples to go across Lake Galilee. As they sailed Jesus was asleep in the ship. Suddenly, there was a strong wind and the boat began to sink. The disciples woke him up saying, Master, we are about to die. Jesus woke up and gave an order to the winds and the raging waters. They obeyed and there was calm. He then said to his disciples where is your faith? Disciples were afraid and amazed and wondered, Who is this man? Winds and waves obey him. This miracle teaches Christians to have faith and to depend on Jesus when they face raging temptations and persecutions. Jesus has power over nature. ii) Jesus Heals a Man with demons (Lk8: 26 39) Jesus and his disciples sailed to Gerasa town across Lake Galilee. On arrival a man who had demons in ----- 175 # him for a long time met Jesus. He lived naked in tombs, and wilderness. On seeing Jesus, he cried out, threw himself down at the feet of Jesus and shouted; Jesus son of the Most High God! What do you want with me? I beseech thee, torment me not. Jesus had ordered the demons to go out of him. Jesus asked him what is your name? He replied Legion or Mob. This was because the man had been possessed by many demons. The demons begged Jesus not to send them into the deep but to let them go into some pigs (swine) that were feeding by. Jesus allowed them and the devils went out of the man, into the pigs. The herd ran down the cliff into the lake and drowned. The herders run to the city and spread the news. The multitude found the man sitting at the feet of Jesus clothed, and in his right mind. The multitude asked Jesus to leave their country region. The healed man wanted to follow Jesus but Jesus declined and told him to go and tell others of the great things that God had done for him. The man went to town and told all what Jesus had done for him. This miracle teaches Christians that: 1. The mission of Jesus was universal. 2. Jesus mission is to teach all the people irrespective of their race, tribe or geographical location. The demon man was healed in a Gentile area. 3. Jesus has power over evil 4. Powers of evil (demons) are real 5. Human life is more valuable than mans material things 6. The demons evil spirits identified Jesus as the Son of the most High ----- 176 # 7. Christians need to fight the power of evil SAQ. What were the causes of mental illness and spirit possession in traditional African society and in modern society? iii) Jairus daughter is raised. Lk.8: 40 42, 49 56 Jairus was an official in the local synagogue. He begged Jesus to come to his house and heal his only daughter who was 12 was dying. iv) Woman with the flow of blood is Healed (Lk. 8:43 48) When Jesus was on route to Jairus house, great crowds followed him and pressed him on either side. Amongst them was a woman who had suffered from severe bleeding for 12 years. She consulted doctors and spent all her savings on physicians. But she was not cured. The society considered the woman unclean. It blamed her for her illness. She herself was embarrassed by her condition. This woman walked behind Jesus and she touched the hem of the garment of Jesus. Her bleeding stopped at once. Jesus asked, who touched me? Everyone denied it. Peter replied the multitude was around Jesus and it was difficult to know who had touched him. Jesus persisted someone touched him. The woman who had touched Jesus the woman came forward, and fell at his feet and confessed to all her sickness and explained why she touched Jesus and how she was healed at once. Jesus said to her My daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace. Jairus daughter is raised. Lk.8: 40 42, 49 56 ----- 177 # As Jesus was talking to her, Jairus was told that his little girl was dead. Dont bother the teacher anymore. Jesus told Jairus not to fear but to believe and she will be well. When he got to the house he went into the room with Peter, John and James and the parents of the girl. People around were weeping and wailing. But Jesus told them not to weep. She is not dead but asleep. They scorned and laughed at him for saying that she is asleep because they knew she was dead. Jesus took the girl by hand and called out Get up, my child little girl arise. She immediately got up and Jesus ordered the parent to give her food. He commanded them not to tell what had happened. Teachings from these two miracles The miracle of raising Jairus daughter teaches Christians that Jesus is compassionate and the author of life. He has power over death, resurrection and life. In the miracle of healing the Woman with the flow of blood: a. Jesus made her healing public. This was probably because He wanted to acknowledge the womans faith in the public. Jesus made it clear that her faith made her whole. b. Jesus wanted to challenge the cultural practices that kept women in bandage and could not participate in public life. c. Jesus made her healing public so that the community can receive her back and shall not isolate her again. From this miracle of healing this woman, Christians learn that one; Jesus is the healer. He has power ----- 178 # over all sicknesses even those without cure. Two, Christians should have faith in Jesus Christ. Lesson Revision Questions 1. Narrate the healing of the Gerasene demoniac Lk 8: 26-39 2. What lessons can Christians learn fro the healing of the demoniac man above? 3. What do the miracles of Jesus teach us about him? 4. Compare the raising of Jairus daughter and the healing of the woman with the flow of blood Answers. A comparison of the raising of Jairus daughter and the healing of the woman with flow of blood (i) Jairus daughter was 12 years old and the woman sick with the flow of blood had suffered for 12 years. (ii) Jesus referred to both of them as daughter (iii) Their situation death and flow of blood did not have a cure (iv) The public witnessed the miracle of the woman with the flow of blood. (v) Jesus commanded Jairus to keep secret raising of his daughter LESSON TWELVE. COMMISSIONING OF THE TWELVE DISCIPLES Lk 9:1 10 Introduction. Commission means to officially ask someone to do something. Learning Outcomes: By the end of the lesson, you should be able to: a Describe the commissioning of the twelve disciples. b Explain the story of the feeding of the 5000 c Describe the transfiguration of Jesus d Explain the teachings of Jesus on faith and humility. a. The commissioning of the twelve disciples ----- 179 # The twelve disciples or followers accompanied Jesus wherever he went. They were regarded as apostles. An apostle comes from a Greek word Apostols which means send out one who is sent or a missionary. The commissioning of the 12 disciples meant that they were given four main duties, power and authority to: a) Exorcise or cast out demons b) Cure diseases c) Heal the sick d) Preach the Kingdom of God and proclaim the arrival of Gods Instructions. They were told to: i) Take nothing for the journey ii) Initiate attack on the forces of evil iii) Depend entirely on God to take care of them iv) Take no stick, no beggars bag, no food, no money and not even an extra shirt for their journey v) Whatever house they entered they were to stay there until they leave the town. vi) If they were not welcomed, they were to leave that town and shake the dust off their feet as a warning to that city or town. With these instructions, the disciples left and travelled to all villages preaching the Good News and healing people everywhere. King Herod was perplexed by the work of the disciples and he desired to see Jesus. b. Feeding of the five thousand. Please open your Bible and read Luke chapter 9. Verses 11-17) ----- 180 # After reading these verses, about feeding of the five thousand (5000) people we learn that 1. Jesus is concerned about peoples physical needs 2. Jesus demonstrated that he is the bread of life 3. Jesus has divine power 4. The Church has the duty of continuing to feed its followers both spiritually and physically. 5. The feeding of the 5000 people points to the Messianic banquet 6. Christians must learn to share whatever they have with one another 7. From this miracle, Jesus expected his disciples to appreciate their responsibility. Their work was not only to preach and heal but also feed the hungry. Feeding was both physical and spiritual. The personality of Jesus and his identity Lk. 9:18 27 When Jesus was alone with his disciples, he asked them who people say he is. The disciples told him that some say he is John the Baptist, others say he is Elijah and others say he is one of the old prophets who have risen again. Jesus asked them who they, disciples say he is. Peter replied that he is Christ of God. Jesus then told them not to tell people who he is for he Son of man has first to suffer many things be rejected by the elders chief, priests and scribes, be killed and be raised the third day. Jesus announced to the disciples of his passion (great sufferings) Jesus is the Christ (anointed) of God Messiah as well as the son of man. A divine nature and a human nature. Jesus went on ahead to tell his disciples that they should deny themselves (self denial) take up their cross daily and be ready to lose their lives for Jesus. ----- 181 # However, great is the reward for the faithful. LESSON THRTEEN: THE TRANSFIGURATION (LK.9: 28 36) Instructions. Read. Luke chapter 9, verse 28 to 36. Then answer revision questions that follow. A brief summary from the Bible Transfiguration is change or transformation of form or appearance. Jesus was transformed in appearance when he took Peter, John and James to the mountain to pray. During the transfiguration, Moses and Elijah came down from heaven to talk with Jesus about his coming death in Jerusalem. Moses, Elijah and Jesus were in heavenly glory and glorious splendor. Peter, John and James were asleep. When they woke up, they saw Jesus glory. They also saw Elijah and Moses with Jesus. Peter suggested to Jesus that they build three tents for Jesus, Elijah and Moses. As he spoke a cloud overshadowed them. A voice from the cloud said this is my son, whom I have chosen listen to him. The cloud left and the disciples found themselves with Jesus. They kept what they saw and heard to themselves. Significance and importance of transfiguration a. The voice from heaven confirmed that Jesus is the Christ of God, or the Messiah b. Moses represented the Old Testament law. Jesus came to fulfil the Law of Moses. It showed that Jesus was not against the Law of Moses. c. Elijah represented the Old Testament Prophets. This meant that Jesus had fulfilled the Old Testament ----- 182 # prophecies.

Learning Outcomes. By the end of the topic, you should be able to a Identify duties and privileges and cost of a disciple. b Describe the teachings of Jesus on prayer, hypocrisy, wealth and watchfulness. c Describe parables Jesus used to teach about prayer, hypocrisy, wealth and watchfulness. LESSON ONE. DUTIES, PRIVILEGES AND COST OF DISCIPLESHIP Lesson Outcomes. When you read this lesson, you should: 1. Explain discipleship 2. List duties given to disciples by Jesus Christ 3. Explain relevance of Christian discipleship to modern Church Jesus teaching on faith and humility A brief summary from the Bible. Read (Luke 9: 37 50) for details. After the transfiguration, Jesus used two incidents to teach his disciples about faith and humility. One incident was the healing of a boy possessed by an evil spirit (Luke 9: 37 43). Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit out of the boy and the boy was healed. Jesus told His disciples that their lack of faith was the reason why they did not cure the boy. Jesus informed his disciples that faith in him was important when carrying out his work. Jesus teaching on His Work The next question was .. who is to work for Jesus? All Christians can work for Jesus even believers who are gentiles. Read (Luke 9 vs. 49 50). Jesus told his disciples not to forbid others from carrying out his ----- 184 # work for whoever is not against Him is for Him. This means that whoever had faith; even the Gentiles could carry out Jesus work. Jesus teaching on His followers Jesus was determined to go to Jerusalem. As He travelled, men volunteered to follow him wherever he was going. Jesus replied that foxes have holes, birds of the air have nests but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head. Jesus had no earthly home. His mission on earth was only for a time. A man requested to follow Jesus but asked permission to bury his father. Jesus told him to let the dead bury their dead. Disciples of Jesus have to leave their families in order to do His Work. Mission of the 72 men. Read Luke 10:1 24 On the way to Jerusalem, Jesus sent out 72 disciples on a mission to promote the Gospel of the Kingdom of God through preaching and service. The 72 disciples were sent in 2s in order to encourage or help each other. The 72 were given instructions. Jesus told them that He has given them power over demons, serpents, scorpion. They have power over all the powers of Satan. When disciples returned, they reported that demons obeyed them. In Luke 10 verse 20, Jesus asked the 72 to rejoice not because demons flee but because their names are written in heaven. Out of the many followers, Jesus chose 12 apostles who learnt from Jesus and became His witnesses. Jesus teaching on the greatest disciple ----- 185 # Read (Luke 9: 46- 48). The disciples asked themselves who is the greatest amongst disciples amongst the 12 disciples? In response Jesus took a child by His side and said to the disciples. Whoever welcomes this child in my name, welcomes me, as well as the one who sent me. For the one who is least amongst you shall be the greatest in Heaven. Lessons from this example. Jesus explained that His disciples needed values of humility and simplicity. These virtues were needed to carry out the work of discipleship. Teaching about Discipleship 1. True followers of Jesus Christ must a. Be ready to detach themselves from families and material possessions. b. Be ready to face rejections because not all people will accept them or their message. c. Be ready to serve. d. Be ready to cater for peoples physical needs. e. Be self less. f. Not be hypocrites and should accept hospitality whenever it is given. g. Be able to exercise self-evaluation. 2. Duties of a disciple were: a) To preach the good news of salvation to other people and be ready to suffer for the sake of Christ. b) Obey Gods commandments and follow teachings of Jesus. c) To help the needy spiritually and with material needs. d) To teach others about the Kingdom of God. e) To heal the sick. f) To cast out demons. g) Be prepared to suffer for the sake of the gospel. ----- 186 # h) Being loyal to Jesus and faithful to the gospel. i) Commitment and loyalty 3. Privileges of a disciple a) One becomes a member of the Kingdom of God. b) They get an assurance of eternal life. c) They receive joy of winning other people to follow Jesus. d) They receive peace, and blessings of God. How are these teachings relevant to modern church leaders and members? Modern church leaders have a duty to continue preaching Gods word to all people. They should serve God in several ministries such as visiting the sick, caring for orphans, the destitute, widows, widowers, and the aged. They should also be ready to suffer and even face rejection for the sake of the Christ. Exercise 1. What are the characteristics of a true follower of Christ? 2. State the privileges of being a disciple of Jesus Christ 3. Why did Jesus choose the 12 disciples? LESSON TWO: A COMMITTED FOLLOWER OF CHRIST Read Luke 10: 25-37, and Luke 11: 1-13 a. The parable of the Good Samaritan A teacher of law asked Jesus questions in order to tempt him. One was what must I do to receive eternal life? (Read Luke 10: 25 to 28). Jesus replied with a question. What do the scriptures say? He replied and Jesus told him to do as the scripture say. . He asked another question. Who is my neighbour? (Luke 10 v 29). Jesus answered with the parable of the Good Samaritan. In this parable, the righteous ----- 187 # people among the Jews, Levites and priests, did not help the injured man. A Samaritan whom Jews considered unclean and sinners helped him. After narrating this parable Jesus asked the lawyer, who of the 3 travelers was a good neighbour? The lawyer said the Samaritan. Lessons learnt from the parable of the Good Samaritan In the above parable, Jesus stressed that a follower of Jesus should be: (1) Committed (2) Show love of God by loving people in need and their neighbours. A neighbour is anybody who requires assistance or help regardless of race, ethnicity, creed, colour or gender. Jesus wants his followers to show love and concern to all people regardless of their background. A neighbour uses his/her resources selflessly to help the needy. A neighbour is also compassionate, kind, and generous to the needy. Jesus Visit to Martha and Mary (Read Luke 10: 38 42) Martha welcomed Jesus in her home where she lived with her sister Mary. While Martha prepared food, Mary sat at Jesus feet listening to his teaching. Martha complained. She was doing all the work while Mary sat listening to Jesus teaching. Jesus told Martha that Mary had made the right choice to listen to His teaching. Lessons we can learn from Jesus Visit to Martha and Mary 1. A committed follower of Jesus is one who creates time to study and listen to Gods word. 2. A follower of Christ should ensure that their commitment to God is not overshadowed by daily duties, ----- 188 # worries and responsibilities. 3. Jesus visit to Mary and Martha was also to teach disciples on the characteristics of a true disciple. Revision exercise 1. From the teachings of Jesus, on the parable of the good Samaritan; who do you think is a committed follower of Jesus? LESSON THREE. JESUS TEACHING ON PRAYER (Read Luke 11:1 13) Prayer is communication with God. It is talking with God. People pray to God all the time. For example, people pray to God when: 1. They are in problems and in happiness; 2. Seeking healing and wealth, 3. Giving thanks to God, 4. Identifying the needs to be met, and asking for favors from God 5. Repenting and confessing their sins 6. Thanking God There are many forms or types of prayers. These are: 1. Intercessory prayer Praying for the needs of others. 2. Prayer for repentance for forgiveness of sins. 3. Thanksgiving prayer giving thanks to God for what he has done. 4. Worship prayer prayers to worship God. 5. Praise prayers to praise God, Honor God. 6. Supplication and petition prayer whereby an individual makes their needs known to God and asks for divine intervention. Jesus prayed often during his lifes Ministry. The disciples asked him to show them how to pray. Jesus responded by teaching them the Lords Prayer. ----- 189 # Our Father who art in Heaven Hallowed be thy name Thy Kingdom come Thy will be done on earth as It is in heaven Give us this day our daily bread Forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who trespass against us Lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil a) Our Father who art in heaven The disciples were told to address God as Our father. God is to be seen and addressed as a Father. b) Hallowed be thy name The name of God should be respected and revered. c) Thy Kingdom come In Prayer, Christians/disciples are to pray that the rulership of God reign amongst them. d) Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven Christians to obey the will of God. e) Give us this day our daily bread Christians to pray for their needs. f. Forgive us our trespasses we ask for forgiveness of our sins and those of others. g. Jesus taught that one should be persistent in prayer. If a man goes to his friend at midnight and asks for bread to give to his visitor, the friend will open the door and give his friend all that he needs. This is because his friend was persistent in knocking on the door. In conclusion, if prayers are to be effective, one must have faith and be persistent. Believe that God shall ----- 190 # answer prayers. A committed follower of Jesus should pray at all times. In prayer, one should acknowledge that God is the Father and that all prayers should be addressed to him. Two, one should have faith that God answers prayers. Therefore we should be persistent in prayer. Reasons why Christians should pray To honor God To request for favors To offer thanksgiving To confess their sins and seek for forgiveness of sins To seek Gods protection To intercede on behalf of others To strengthen their relationship with God Revision exercise 1. What did Jesus teach about prayer? 2. What is the importance of prayer? LESSON FOUR: USE OF GODS POWER TO OVERCOME EVIL. Read Luke 11:14 28 Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson, you should be able to: 1. Narrate Jesus teaching about demons 2. Explain why the sign of Jonah was important 3. Describe how Gods power overcomes evil a. Jesus and Beelzebub. (Read Luke 11: 14 to 28) Jesus drove out a mute demon. The possessed man began to talk. The crowd said that Jesus was casting out demons using the power of Beelzebub (the price of demons). Beelzebul was an evil spirit. However Jesus replied Any country that divides itself into groups which fight each other will not last very long, ----- 191 # and a family divided against itself will fall. Jesus said it is by the power of God that drives out demons. Lessons learnt i. Satan cannot fight against himself therefore Jesus cannot be an agent of Beelzebub / Satan. ii. Gods Kingdom and that of Satan were two separate Kingdoms and could not co exist. iii. The destruction of Satans power meant that the Kingdom of God was in Israel and it was powerful. Gods power destroyed Satans kingdom. It is impossible to be neutral in the battle between Christ and Satan. One has to belong to either Christ or Satan. iv. Jesus has power to drive out demons. v. Demons occupy people. They bring disabilities and diseases. What makes people to be insane? Mentally sick b. The sign of Jonah. (Read Luke 11: 29 32) After Jesus drove out the dumb spirit, Jews demanded performance of greater miracles. They wanted Jesus to prove that he was their expected messiah. Jesus said that Jonah was a great miracle. But Jesus was greater miracle than that of Jonah, and King Solomon. King Solomon was full of wisdom. He was so great that Queen of Sheba came to listen to his wisdom. Jesus like Jonah had brought a message of judgment. Jesus is greater than Jonah or Solomon. If Jews refuse to receive and listen to Jesus, the Gentiles like Queen of Sheba, will bear testimony against the Jews and receive Gods salvation. c. The light of the body. Read Luke: 11: 33 36 ----- 192 # Jesus taught that no one lights a lamp and hides it under a bowl. A lamp is placed where all can see its light. He said that the human eye is the lamp or the light of the body. Jesus asked the listeners to make sure that the light in you is not darkness (vs. 35). What is the main message in this story? LESSON FIVE: JESUS TEACHING ON HYPOCRISY, WEALTH, WATCHFULNESS AND READINESS Introduction Hypocrisy is being dishonest and insincere or pretending to someone else or people. What did Jesus teach about hypocrisy? Learning outcomes. After reading these verses in Luke: 1. State what Jesus taught on hypocrisy 2. Explain value of wealth 3. Discuss how modern Christians can be watchful and ready for the coming of Jesus Christ a. Hypocrisy. Read Luke 12: 1- 12 A Pharisee invited Jesus to his house for a meal. When Jesus did not wash before eating the meal, the Pharisee was surprised. Jesus told him .. you Pharisees clean the outside of your cup and plate, but inside you are full violence and evil, greed and wickedness (vs. 39). Jesus condemned the Pharisees for their hypocrisy. They were concerned with outward appearances and traditions such as ceremonial washing of cups, hands, and dishes but not the souls of people. They loved the outward show and public recognition. Pharisees tithed, but neglected justice and love of God (vs. 42). They imposed rules and ----- 193 # regulations for people to follow, yet they themselves did not practice what they preached. They refused to confess their sins but pointed out sins in others. They hinder others from entering the kingdom of God. They had failed to make people understand the true interpretation of the law. They were like unmarked graves dead to people yet the people trusted them. After this teaching, the Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to oppose Jesus fiercely. What do we learn from Jesus teachings? Followers of Jesus should be 1. Sincere and upright (honest); (2) obey Gods commands; (3), live to please God but not other people; (4) confess publicly their loyalty to God and (5) love God without fear and (6) be dependent on the Holy Spirit b. The Parable of the Rich Fool. (Read Luke 12:13 to 21). Someone wanted justice. His brother had refused to share with him his fathers wealth. He wanted Jesus to order his brother to divide their fathers inheritance between him. In response, Jesus answered him with the parable of the rich fool. A rich man expected a good harvest of his crops. He thought he did not have storage for the crop he expected to harvest. The man said to himself. i will demolish my granaries and stores, then build bigger ones to store all my corn, and other goods. He expected to have enough food to last him a lifetime. Then he can enjoy his wealth; eating, drinking and making merry. But God told him that his life would be ----- 194 # demanded from him that same night. What will happen to his wealth, as he was not rich in Gods sight? Lessons to learn i Followers of Jesus should not put their trust in material wealth but in God ii Life consists of food, other material wealth and trust in God iii Whoever seeks Gods kingdom, will receive material blessings from God iv Jesus did not condemn material possessions but rather the attitude towards material possessions. v Jesus condemned attachment to material wealth instead of trust in God who controls our lives. c. Watchfulness, Readiness, and Instructions. (Read Luke 12: 35 59) Jesus told his disciples to be: i Watchful and ready for the return of the Son of Man i.e. Jesus. ii Faithful servants so that when Jesus returns, he will find them ready and acting responsibly iii Watchful of possible divisions in families iv Royal to Christ v Ready for the coming of the Son of Man. He will come at unexpected time; like a thief who comes when the owner of the house is not aware. vi Observing things of the kingdom of God, which were present in the person of Jesus. vii Like good servants, and watch over the affairs of the master. viii Be decision makers and follow the teachings of Jesus without being watched. Review questions 1. In what ways were the Pharisees hypocritical? LESSON SIX: THE KINGDOM OF GOD ----- 195 # Learning Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to 1. Explain the teachings of Jesus about the kingdom of God 4. Narrate the parables of a. The unfaithful fig tree b. The mustard seed c. Parable of the feast d. Parable of the great feast e. Parable of the lost sheep and the lost son The Kingdom of God Kingdom of God refers to rule of God, or Gods authority on peoples lives and the world He created. The kingdom of God was present in Jesus. It is now and in the future reality. The teachings, and miracles of Jesus were a manifestation of the Kingdom of God. For anyone to enter Gods kingdom, one has to repent and ask for forgiveness. The Kingdom of God continues to grow and spread through the work of the Church. Those who accept the teachings of Jesus Christ about Gods Kingdom are members of the Kingdom of God. Now to enter the Kingdom of God, one has to repent and not judge others. Read Luke 13:1-5. Luke has explained the kingdom of God and outlined who will enter it. The Kingdom of God has unfruitful fig tree (Read Luke, 13: 6 9). A farmer had a fig tree that was unproductive for 3 years. He ordered the gardener to cut it down. The gardener requested for the fig tree to be given another chance. He promised to dig around the fig tree and add fertilizer. If it bears ----- 196 # fruits well, it can survive, if it doesnt bear fruit, then it should be cut down. Lessons learnt from the parable The unproductive fig tree represents followers of Jesus who are unproductive because they do not follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. God gives people chances to repent just like the fig tree was given a second chance to bear fruit. Jesus is the gardener who pleads for people before God. The followers of Jesus are expected to be fruitful. What are the figs used for? a. Parable of the mustard seed. Read Luke, 13:18 19 Jesus likened the kingdom of God to a mustard seed, which is very small. When a mustard seed is planted, it grows fast to become a big tree. It is difficult to control its growth. When mature, the fig tree attracts many birds, which feed on its seeds. Lesson learnt from the parable. The Kingdom of God Begins as a small seed and grows quietly and humbly Then it grows and spreads to all corners of the earth And It attracts many people b. Parable of the Yeast. Read Luke, 13: 20 21 The Kingdom of God is like yeast. Yeast makes dough rise and the bread big. The Kingdom of God grows secretly and slowly just like the dough rises without being noticed. It is only God who knows how a kingdom grows. The Kingdom of God grows as a small unit that eventually grows, spreads and reaches out to many people in many nations. ----- 197 # c. The narrow door. Read Luke, 13: 22 30 As Jesus was teaching in towns and villages, a person asked him whether a few people would be saved. Jesus replied that his followers should make every effort to go through the narrow door as it leads to the Kingdom of God. The narrow door will not remain open forever. Lesson learnt from the parable Those who wish to follow Jesus must repent immediately Entrance to Gods Kingdom is through repentance Everybody is invited to enter into the Kingdom of God. d. Jesus heals a crippled woman on the Sabbath. Luke, 13:10 12 Jesus was teaching in the synagogue on Sabbath. Jesus healed a woman who had an evil spirit, which had bent her back (Hunch back) for 18 years. Jesus saw her and told her woman, you are free from your illness! She was made straight and immediately glorified God. The official of the synagogue was annoyed that Jesus was healing on a Sabbath. He and others were hostile to Jesus for healing/working on the Sabbath. Jesus told him, you hypocrite. You feed and look after your animals on the Sabbath day. Jesus emphasized that human life is more important than animal life or even observing the Sabbath. Lessons learnt from the parable Jesus came to set people free from the bondage of sickness and Satan. Jesus work of liberation is continuous. It has to be performed even on a Sabbath day because human life is more important than animal life or even observing the Sabbath. e. Jesus Love for Jerusalem. (Read Luke13: 31 35) ----- 198 # As Jesus continued with his teachings, he reached Jerusalem. Pharisees informed him that Herod wanted to kill him. His response was go and tell that fox I will continue healing the sick and casting out demons. Jesus however, lamented over Jerusalem for rejecting Gods messengers. God would abandon Jerusalem for rejecting Jesus. Jerusalem was the site of Jesus death. It would eventually acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah who brings salvation to Israel and to the rest of the world. f. Man with dropsy healed (Read Luke 14:1 6). Jesus was invited to the house of the leading Pharisees for a meal on a Sabbath. A man with dropsy (swollen legs and arms) came to Jesus for healing. The Pharisees watched Jesus closely to see what he would do. Jesus asked the Pharisees does our Law allow healing on the Sabbath or not? They kept quiet. Jesus healed the man who then left. Jesus asked the Pharisees, would they save their son or an ox if it fell in a well on a Sabbath. They kept quiet. g. Humility and Hospitality. (Read Luke 14: 7 14) Jesus was in the house of a leading Pharisees and observed that some of the invited guests were choosing the best places to sit at the table. He taught the disciples how to be humble. He said, when invited for a meal, let the owner give you a seat of honor that is reserved for important and honorable guests. Read verse 11. Jesus advised his host to invite the poor, cripples, and the blind who cannot invite you, as they have ----- 199 # nothing to give back for generosity. Lessons learnt from the parable Jesus is teaching about humility and hospitality. Those who are humble shall be elevated. Those who elevate themselves shall be humbled. Followers of Jesus should extend invitations to the poor and the underprivileged in the society. The Kingdom of God belongs to the humble people. c. The parable of the Great Feast. Read Luke, 14: 15 24. A man said to Jesus, How happy are those who will sit down at the feast in the Kingdom of God (verse 15). In response Jesus told him that a man made a great feast and invited many friends and colleagues to the feast. The invited guests failed to come and a servant was sent to inform them that the feast was ready. All the invited guests gave personal excuses explaining why they could not come. The master was angry and asked the servant to invite the poor, crippled, lame, the blind and anyone willing to come to the feast. Lessons learnt from the parable God has invited all people to the great feast of the Kingdom of God. Those who honor his invitation will be blessed. Those who reject the invitation will be excluded from the feast. Jesus explained that the Kingdom of God is like a great feast open to all Jews and Gentiles. To enter the Kingdom of God, one has to make a personal decision because following Jesus means sacrificing activities that we consider important to us. d. The Cost of Being a Disciple ----- 200 # Read Luke 14: 25 33 True discipleship means loving Jesus more than ones family. This is a great sacrifice to detach oneself from the family. A disciple must be ready to suffer for the sake of following Jesus. Following Jesus requires skills of careful thinking, planning and detailed preparations. Jesus compared true discipleship to the planning required when building a tower or engaging in a military operation. Lessons / teachings learnt from the parable True discipleship means making great sacrifices, none of you can be my disciple unless you give up everything you have (verse 33). Jesus disciples are expected to do careful planning before deciding to follow him because they are required to love God more than anyone else even their relatives and friends. e. The parable of the Lost Sheep Read Luke, 15:1 7 Pharisees and teachers of law complained to Jesus because Jesus was teaching ordinary people such as tax collectors, and outcasts considered sinners by them. Jesus told the Pharisees and teachers of law the parable of the lost sheep. He told them that if a shepherd with 100 sheep lost one of them, what action would he take? Wouldnt he leave the 99 sheep and go out to look for the lost sheep? And on finding it, wouldnt the shepherd celebrate with friends and neighbours? Jesus said that God celebrates if over one sinner who repents than over 99 ----- 201 # respectable people who do not need to repent. Lessons / teachings learnt from the parable iii God is a shepherd and takes care of all his people. iv He does not want any of his people to be lost. v God searches for those lost in sin until he finds them. vi When one sinner repents, God is overjoyed and rejoices. vii God is the good shepherd who has come to seek and save the lost. f. Parable of the Lost Coin. Read Luke, 15: 8 10 If a woman losses one of her ten silver coins, she searches until she finds it. And if it is found, she invites her friends and neighbours to celebrate. Lessons learnt from the parable God and the angels in heaven search make every effort to seek the lost sinner until they find them. Jesus lights the world, looking for sinners who are lost because they are precious in Gods sight. g. Parable of the Lost Son (prodigal son) Read Luke 15:11 32 Jesus then told the story of a father who had two sons. The younger was given his share of inheritance he had requested. He went to foreign lands and wasted his inheritance. He became poor and decided to return home and ask his father to forgive him and employ him as a servant. His father kissed him and celebrated his return. The father announced to his guests that the son who was lost is now found. - The one who was dead is now live. The elder son was angry and unhappy because his father had never held a celebration for him, inspite of ----- 202 # his hard work and obedience. His father told him my son you are always here with me, and everything I have is yours. We are just celebrating the return of the lost son. Lessons learnt from the parable a. A person dies spiritually if they sin b. God loves all people including sinners c. God is ready to forgive every sinner who repents d. There is no sin that God cannot give e. Jesus taught that both the righteous and unrighteous require Gods forgiveness f. There is joy and happiness in heaven when one sinner repents. g. Christians should confess their sins and acknowledge that Jesus saves repentant sinners h. God accepts unconditionally any sinner who comes back to him in repentance i. Confession of sins is a condition for entering the Kingdom of God. A GREAT FEAST FOR ALL WHO ARE PREPARED Luke 14: 1 35 SAQ. What are the qualities of those who belong to the kingdom of God? Answer. Qualities of people who belong to the Kingdom of God Those who belong to the Kingdom of God: i. Obey Gods commandments ii. Accept Gods rule in their lives iii Show Gods love to others iv Are ready to make sacrifices so as to be followers of Jesus v Read Gods word and preach to others vi Confess their sins and seek forgiveness of their sins through repentance. Review questions 1. Give an explanation of the term Kingdom of God ----- 203 # 2. What did Jesus teach about the kingdom of God? 3. What lessons do Christians learn from the parables of the lost son? Answer 1. The term Kingdom of God means the role of God or Gods authority in peoples lives and the world. LESSON SEVEN: TEACHINGS ON WEALTH AND POVERTY. LK 16:1 32 Learning Outcomes. By the end of the topic, you should be able to: a) Explain the teachings of Jesus on wealth, and poverty b) Narrate the teachings of Jesus on repentance Introduction While wealth is possession of material things such as money or occupation of a high social economic status, poverty is the opposite. It is lack of basic needs such as water, education, food, shelter, clothing, and health. When teaching about wealth, Jesus taught using two parables. These were: (1) parable of the shrewd manager (2) parable of the rich man and Lazarus Parable of the shrewd manager Read Luke, 16: 1 18 When the shrewd manager realized that his master was going to sack him due to his dishonesty, he asked the debtors to change the amounts they owed their master to smaller amounts. He did this to make friends with a few people who would give him a place to stay after he was sacked. The master praised the shrewd manager and did not sack him. The shrewd manager is praised not because of his ----- 204 # dishonesty but because he acted promptly and with great presence of mind in a moment of crisis. Jesus is encouraging his disciples and followers to make prompt (quick, appropriate, timely) decisions. They should use wealth to serve God. It should not be allowed to take the place of God. Followers of Jesus should be honest in small and big things. The Rich Man and Lazarus. Read Luke, 16: 19 31. A rich man lived in luxury. At his gates was a poor man, called Lazarus whose body was covered by sores. The rich man did not feed Lazarus. He ate food remains together with the rich mans dogs. When rich man died, he went to hell. When Lazarus died, he went to heaven and sat at Abraham/s bosom. When in hell, the rich man was tormented while Lazarus was at peace. Lessons to learn from this parable. The rich isnt condemned for being rich but because of his altitude towards Lazarus. He used his wealth for self-gratification and not for service to the needy. The wealthy should realize that it is God who gives wealth and he should be given honor. Riches can hinder the wealthy from inheriting eternal life, especially if they put their trust in riches instead of God who is the source of all wealth and blessings. Revision exercise 1. From the parable of the rich fool what can Christians learn about the use of wealth? 2. Narrate the parable of the shrewd manager LESSON EIGHT. JESUS TEACHING ON FORGIVENESS ----- 205 # Read Luke 17: 1 4 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you shall explain the power of Christian faith. Sin. Read Luke 17: 1-4. Jesus taught his disciples to forgive offenders who repent. Those who sin should seek forgiveness. If they offend 7 times in a day, forgive them 7 times. Followers of Jesus need faith to forgive others. The power of faith. Read Luke, 17: 5 11. Faith is defined as complete trust or confidence in God. It is absolute truthfulness and trust in everything that comes from God. The apostles asked Jesus to increase their faith. Followers of Jesus should have faith. Faith has no measure. Faith as big as a mustard seed can empower Christians to perform miracles that serve God. Faith is necessary. With faith, Christians can forgive others and be servants of God. Disciples should have faith. Christians understand that they owe everything to God. Jesus heals ten lepers. Read Luke, 17:11- 19 Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem when he met ten lepers. They requested Jesus to heal them. Jesus told them to go and show themselves to the priests. On the way, they were healed. One of them, a Samaritan, returned to thank Jesus for healing him. The Samaritans and the Jews did not associate. Jesus told the Samaritan that his faith has made him whole. Faith is necessary for healing any disease. Leprosy is a disease that leads to loss of fingers, toes and other parts of the body. It was a dreadful skin ----- 206 # disease, which Jews feared. Lepers were isolated from other people. They lived dejected lives The coming of the kingdom. Read Luke 17: 20 37 The Pharisee demanded to know when the kingdom of God would come. Jesus replied that the kingdom of God was within those who had accepted Jesus and his teachings. Those who wanted had received the kingdom. Faith is necessary to discover the power of Gods kingdom. The coming of the son of man, i.e. Jesus will bring the kingdom to reality. The coming of the son of man is also referred to as the day of the Lord, Day of Judgment. Read Luke, 21: 27- 28. Those who obey Jesus will be saved but those who reject him will be punished. Lessons to learn. God expects Christians to have faith in him. Christians should have faith in Jesus so that they can inherit eternal life. Faith is needed to strengthen Christians. Faith is important in the life of a Christian until Jesus returns, i.e. the second coming. Revision exercise 1. What did Jesus teach on forgiveness LESSON NINE. PERSISTENCE IN PRAYER, Read Luke, 18:1 14 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, discuss the values of persistence in prayer To teach about persistence in prayer, Jesus used two parables. These were the parables of: the widow and a corrupt judge and examples of prayer by a Pharisee and a tax collector. a. The widow and the unjust judge. Read Luke, 18: 1 9 Jesus had already taught the disciples how to pray. He now tells them that they ought to pray and not ----- 207 # faint. He gives a parable to explain his point. A widow went to a corrupt judge to have her adversaries judged. The judge was corrupt and ignored her. He however gave in to her demands since she was persistent and wearing him down. The judge helped her because of her persistence and courage. Lessons learnt from the parable Followers of Jesus should pray with courage and be persistent in prayer. God hears and answers prayers. Christians should pray without ceasing and with faith and trust that their prayers will be answered. b. Parable of the Pharisee, and tax collector, Read Luke, 18:9 14 A Pharisee and tax collector went to the temple to pray. The Pharisee offered a long prayer focusing on his achievements. The tax collector (publican) did not have much to say except asking for mercy, as he was a sinner. Followers of Jesus should acknowledge they are sinners and seek forgiveness. They should approach God in humility and avoid spiritual pride, and self- righteousness. Revision exercise 1. State the parable of the widow and the unjust judge LESSON TEN. THE WAY TO SALVATION, Read Luke, 18: 15 19: 1 27. Introduction: The word salvation refers to the act of saving or being saved from sin. Those who have received salvation area assured of eternal life. To receive salvation a person must acknowledge that he is a sinner and repent their sins. In this way, they receive forgiveness and are reconciled to God. ----- 208 # Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. State the meaning of salvation b. Discuss characteristics of salvation c. Give examples of those who will enter the Kingdom of God. d. Explain how Jesus predicted his death Introduction Salvation means being saved from a life-threatening situation. In Christianity, salvation refers to the process of being delivered from sin and its consequences. Those who are saved are assured of eternal life. Jesus taught about salvation using children to illustrate his message. This is what happened. Some people brought their children to Jesus so that he could bless them. The disciples scolded them. Jesus asked the children to come to him and he blessed them. Jesus taught his disciples that they must be humble like children in order to enter the kingdom of God. The road to salvation is by being simple, humble, and trusting like little children. The kingdom of God belongs to those who humble themselves like the little children. The rich man. Read Luke, 18:18 30 The entry into the kingdom of God was further explained through the story of the rich man. The rich man came to Jesus wanting to know how he could inherit eternal life and be saved. Jesus reminded him of the importance of keeping the commandments. The young man responded that he had observed the commandments since he was young. Jesus told him there is one thing remaining to do; sell everything ----- 209 # he has, and give it to the poor, and then follow Jesus. The rich man was very sorrowful for he was very wealthy. Wealth can hinder the rich from receiving salvation. Jesus acknowledged the sacrifice made by his disciples. He emphasized that disciples shall receive salvation in the present and in life to come. Salvation is a gift from God. Salvation is received; by those who accept to follow Jesus. Trusting in wealth can be a hindrance to salvation. The rich may find it difficult to inherit eternal life. Jesus predicts his death, a 3rd time. Read Luke, 18: 31 34. Jesus predicted his death a three times. First was after asking his disciples who they say he was. The second time was after transfiguration when his face was set towards Jerusalem. The third prediction shall be in Jerusalem (Luke 18:31-34). Jesus told the disciples that previous prophecies would be fulfilled in Jerusalem. His death was going to take place in Jerusalem according to the writings of the prophets. It was going to be a painful death. He shall be beaten, mocked, spit upon and put to death. But on the third day, he shall rise again. The disciples did not understand what Jesus was telling them. Jesus had to die so that those who believed in him may receive eternal life. The death and resurrection of Jesus gives Christians hope of eternal life. Jesus heals a blood beggar. Read Luke, 18: 35 43 As Jesus neared Jericho, a blind man sat by the roadside begging. When he heard the multitude pass by, ----- 210 # he inquired what was going on and he was told that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. He then cried out Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me The crowds rebuked him but he cried out louder to Jesus to have mercy on him. Jesus asked him what he wanted. He said he wanted to see. Jesus told him to receive his sight for his faith had made him whole. The beggar was joyful and he followed Jesus rejoicing. Lessons learnt. Christians should have faith in Jesus. They should also be persistent and make specific requests. LESSON THIRTEEN: JESUS AND ZACCHAEUS LK 19:1 9 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, a. Narrate events leading to salvation of Zacchaeus b. Explain meanings of the story of the man who gave gold coins to his servants Zacchaeus was short. His profession was a tax collector. He was rich. He wanted to be saved. When Jesus was passing by Jericho, he wanted to see Jesus. He couldnt because he was short. He ran and climbed a sycamore tree to see Jesus. When Jesus came to the place where Zacchaeus was, he looked up and said Hurry down, Zacchaeus, because I must stay in your house today (verse 5). Jesus then went with Zacchaeus to his house. When people saw this they grumbled, and murmured. They said that Jesus was going to a house of a sinner. Jesus told them that salvation has come to the house of Zacchaeus, a son of Abraham the Son of man ----- 211 # came to seek and save the lost. There is no sin that God cannot forgive, even that of a tax collector. Zacchaeus told Jesus that he was going to give to the poor half of his wealth and whatever he took from any man and woman wrongfully, he will restore four times. From this salvation, we learn that the rich should share their wealth with the needy. The Parable of the Gold Coins: Luke, 19: 11 27. A certain nobleman went to a far country. Before he left he called his ten servants and gave each a gold coin (ten pounds in total). He told them to trade with the coins until he returns. When he returned, he called the servants to report profits they had made. The first servant said that one-pound coin had made profit of 10 pounds (gold coins). He made the manager of ten cities. The second servant had traded and gained 5 pounds. He was made the manager of 5 cities. The third one had hidden the pound. He did not trade. He accused the master of being mean, and cruel. He returned the pound, which was given to the servant with 10 pounds. Lessons to learn. This parable was about the kingdom of God. God expects us to use opportunities he has given to us for his work. Each one of us shall account for the use of the abilities and skills that God gave to us students, workers, and other professionals. To receive eternal life, Christians should repent and be obedient to Gods instructions. Revision questions ----- 212 # 1. What did Jesus teach by using the example of little children? 5.

Luke 19: 28- 40. Jesus death had to happen in Jerusalem. Hence Jesus went to Jerusalem. He sent two disciples to a place where there was a colt (young donkey) that no person had ever ridden. They took it to Jesus. They threw their garments on the colt, and Jesus sat on it. As Jesus rode, people spread their clothes on the road. As Jesus neared Jerusalem, a large crowd of his disciples began to praise God (vs37). The crowd said blessed be the king who comes in the name of the lord. The Pharisees told Jesus to rebuke the disciples. Jesus told them if the disciples kept quiet the stones would start shouting. Jesus made his entry into Jerusalem in a royal (kingly) procession. He was Israels humble king who came ----- 213 # with peace and not a political leader. He rode on a donkey a symbol of peace. This was unlike the political kings who rode on the horses during that time. b. Jesus weeps over Jerusalem. Read, Luke 41- 44. When Jesus was near Jerusalem he wept. He then foretold the coming destruction of Jerusalem due to its rejection of the messiah. The rejoicing of his triumphant entry to Jerusalem turned to mourning as he foretold the destruction of Jerusalem by Romans in 70 A.D. c. Jesus goes to the temple. Read Luke 19:45 48. Jesus went to Jerusalem temple and evicted traders. He told them that the house of God is a house of prayer not a den of thieves. Jeremiah spoke these same words during his temple sermon. The chief priests and scribes began planning how to kill Jesus. LESSON TWO. PHARISEES, SCRIBES QUESTION JESUS. LUKE 20 1-47 Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson you should be able to: - 1. Describe the question about the authority of Jesus 2. Describe the parable of the tenants in the vineyard 3. Describe the question about paying taxes 4. Describe the question about resurrection 5. Describe Jesus teachings against the teachers of law 6. Describe the parable of the widows offering a. The question about Jesus authority. Read Luke, 20:1 8. The Jewish leaders wanted to know from Jesus by whose authority he was doing all the things he was doing. In response Jesus asked them did Johns right to baptize come from God or from human ----- 214 # beings? (Vs4). They discussed among themselves and decided not answer. Jesus told them neither will I tell you. In response to his authority being questioned he told a parable. b. The parable of the Tenants in the Vineyard. Read the parable in Luke, 20: 9 18. The tenants refused to pay the owner of the vineyard his share of the harvest. They threw out the servants he sent to collect his share of the harvest. When he sent his son, they killed him so that they can own the vineyard. Jesus asked the people What will the owner of the vineyard do to the tenants? c. The Question about paying taxes. Read Luke 20:19-28 Pharisees, and scribes (teachers of the law) and chief priests planned to arrest Jesus but they were afraid of the people. They sent spies to trick Jesus by asking this question - is it against our law for us to pay taxes to the Roman Empire, or not? Jesus used the currency and told them pay the Emperor Caesar what belongs to him and pay God what belongs to God. (Verse 25) This was a tricky question. Jesus here teachers people to obey the rules of the land and to obey Gods rules. d. The Question about Resurrection The Sadducees who did not believe in resurrection tempted Jesus with another question. They wanted to know this. When resurrection comes, who shall be the husband to a woman who was married to the first brother and inherited as a widow by the other six brothers? ----- 215 # Jesus told them the men and women who shall be worthy of resurrection shall not marry. They shall be like angels and cannot die (verse 34 to 38) e. Jesus warns against the Teachers of the law Jesus warned his disciples. Be careful and guard yourselves against teachers of the law, the scribes. They were hypocritical. They wore long robes, said long prayers, looked for positions of honor and exploited the widows. f. The Widows Offering. Luke, 21: 1- 4 When people were giving offerings in the temple, a widow gave two little copper coins. Jesus said the poor widow had given all she had. Likewise Christians should give to God not to be seen but from their hearts. It is not the quantity of the gift that matters but the attitude of the giver. LESSON THREE: THE TEACHINGS OF JESUS ABOUT ESCHATOLOGY LK. 21: 5 38 Eschatology is from two Greek words, eschatus and logos. Eschatus means end, Logos means study. Eschatology means the study of the end times or in CRE the last days of Jesus. For biblical information, read Luke 21:5-38 and Mathew 24: 1 36 and Mark 13:1-31. Learning outcomes.

For example disciples of the scribes learnt law in the temple. The destruction of the temple symbolized the birth of Christianity. From that time Christians became the new temple of God. ----- 217 # c. The parable of the fig tree Lk.21: 29 33 Jesus used the parable of the fig tree to explain more about the end times. Appearance of leaves in the fig tree and other trees inform us that summer will soon come. When Christians see signs of the end times, they should know that the kingdom of God is about to come. Jesus told disciples to be watchful, alert, and praying for strength to endure the coming tribulations. See the previous teachings on watchfulness and readiness. Christians are to watch out and be ready for the end times. d.

Judas decided to betray Jesus. He communed with the Jewish leaders who agreed to pay him money to betray Jesus. He searched for a way to betray Jesus without knowledge of Jesus. He forgot who was Jesus. Judas agreed to betray Jesus probably because: a. He belonged to the party of Zealots who wanted political changes b. He was probably frustrated by Jesus approach to the Kingdom of God which was establishing a peaceful spiritual kingdom c. He expected Jesus to establish a political kingdom d. He was greedy for money e. Satan entered him LESSON ONE: THE LORDS SUPPERS/ THE LAST SUPPER. LK 22: 7 13 The last supper was the lost Passover meal that Jesus took before his arrest. Passover is celebrated in ----- 220 # obedience to Gods command to Moses. It is a remembrance of Israels deliverance by God from slavery in Egypt. a. The Passover meal Preparations for the Passover, Read Luke 22: 7 23. Peter and John were sent by Jesus to go and prepare the Passover meal. They were to do so in a house in the city. They were taken to the house by, a man who was carrying a vessel of water. They were given a big furnished upper room upstairs. They prepared the Passover meal as instructed by Jesus. Passover meal During the meal with the 12 disciples / apostles Jesus told them that this was going to be his last meal with them before his death. He took a cup of wine gave thanks to God and said Take this and share it among yourselves. I tell you that from now on I will not drink this wine until the Kingdom of God comes. The cup of wine was his blood that he was going to shed for them. Wine therefore symbolized the blood of Jesus, shed for the purification of humankind and forgiveness of sins. This blood is the New Testament and covenant with Christians. After drinking of wine, He took a piece of bread, gave thanks to God and shared it and told them that the piece of bread represented his body which is given for them. He presented his death as a sacrifice whose blood sealed the new covenant. His death replaced the sacrifices of the Old law, those of animals, which sealed the Sinai covenant. The new covenant will be for ----- 221 # all people including Gentiles. This is to fulfil Gods promise of salvation for all people. Jesus and disciples ate Passover together so that henceforth Christians would eat the meal together in remembrance of Jesus. Passover was initially taken to remind them of the deliverance from Egypt. But during the last supper, Jesus gave the Passover a new meaning. As they ate, Jesus foretold of his betrayal by one of his disciple. SAQ. i. Which items were used to celebrate the Passover in the Old Testament? ii. What items do modern Christians use to celebrate the Lords Supper? Comparisons of the Lords Supper and the Passover (a) The Passover commemorates the divine act of redemption of the Jews from their bondage in Egypt while the Last Supper commemorates the deliverance of human kind from sin. (b) The Passover feast reminded the Israelites that they were free, redeemed people while the Lords Suppers is to remind Christians of their forgiveness of sins. The death of Jesus set Christians free from sins. (c) Passover was followed by the Old covenant of Mount Sinai. The Lords suppers is a new covenant based on the death of Jesus for sins of humankind (d) Passover (Old testament) was sealed by the blood of Lambs while New Covenant (Lords suppers) is sealed by the blood of Jesus on the cross. (e) Items for celebrating in Passover (old testament) are different from the cup of wine and pieces of bread used by Jesus to celebrate his last supper with the disciples. ----- 222 # Relevance of the Lords Supper today Christians celebrate the Lords supper. This celebration is called the Eucharist, the Lords suppers, or Lords meal. Christians celebrate it as an act of repentance; through which they receive assurance of forgiveness of their sins. The presence of Jesus becomes a reality when Christians share bread and wine. Bread and wine are symbols of heavenly feast, which Christians will partake in Gods kingdom. The Lords supper is also a sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to God. It is a time for rededication to Christ and self-renewal. Through the celebration of the Lords supper, Christians anticipate the second coming of Jesus and the establishment of Gods Kingdom. It is also a time to remember the death and resurrection of Jesus and reflect on Gods love for humankind. b. The Argument about Greatness. Read Luke, 22: 24 30 A question arose among the disciples. They wanted to know who among them was the greatest? Jesus told them that they do not belong to the world system of authority given on the basis of wealth and fame. The authority among the disciples will be determined on the basis of their service to others. The greatest is the servant. Jesus likened himself to a servant hence disciples are called to serve. By sharing in trials and sufferings of Jesus, the disciples will share in his ruling power over the new Israel. Leadership in church should be understood in terms of service being a servant of people. In the ----- 223 # community of Christians, all people who are followers of Jesus are all equal. SAQ. In your opinion, which are the signs of greatness in the world? c. Jesus Predicts Peters Denial. Read Luke, 22: 31 38 Jesus told peter that Satan had received permission to test or tempt all the disciples but Jesus had prayed for Peters faith not to fail. Jesus told Peter that he shall deny Jesus three times before the cock crows. Jesus was telling his disciples that they will encounter hostility in their evangelism hence they should be prepared for suffering and opposition because of Him as Isaiah 53:12 says he shared the fate of evil men. Jesus death was imminent inevitable. The disciples were expected to be strong LESSON TWO: PRAYER, ARREST OF JESUS AND DENIAL BY PETER Learning Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you shall: a. Narrate the events that took place at Mount of Olives b. Describe the arrest of Jesus c. Discuss Peters denial of Jesus d. Describe the arrest of Jesus a. Prayer on the Mount of Olives. Read Luke. 22: 39 46 After celebrating the last supper, Jesus went to the Mount of Olives with his disciples to pray to resist temptation. Jesus went ahead of his disciples, knelt down and prayed. Jesus left them to pray by himself. He said Father if you will, take this cup of suffering away from me. ----- 224 # Not my will, however, but your will to be done (42). An angel came to strengthen him. He prayed earnestly, in agony and turmoil great than the physical pain. He sweated great drops of blood. After praying, Jesus found his disciples asleep worn out by their grief vs. 45). Jesus asked them to wake up and pray to avoid temptation. Significance The disciples fell asleep. This was a sign of moral and physical exhaustion. Jesus expressed inner struggle about the fulfillment of his messianic mission. He prayed for Gods help. Christians should always pray to avoid temptation and seek Gods help. b. Betrayal and arrest of Jesus. Read Luke, 22: 47 53 Jesus was arrested by: the chief priest, elders, officers of the temple guard, and a crowd of people as he talked to his disciples. He was taken to the house of the high priest. Judas had identified Jesus with a kiss. Jesus asked Judas him Judas, is it with a kiss that you betray the Son of man? Jewish religious leaders had come to arrest Jesus as they arrested other criminals. Jesus told his disciples not to resist his arrest. He rejected armed resistance refusing the role of a political messiah. Peter followed him from a distance. c. Peters Denies Jesus. Read Luke, 22: 54 65 After Jesus was arrested he was taken to the house of the High Priest. As Peter sat warming himself with others, a maid identified Peter. She said, This man too was with Jesus. Peter denied knowing Jesus ----- 225 # three times. After the third denial, the cock crowed just as Jesus predicted. Jesus turned and looked at Peter who remembered the words of Jesus. Peter went out and wept bitterly (Vs. 62). Weeping was a sign of repentance LESSON THREE: THE TRIALS AND CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS Lesson Outcomes. By the end of this lesson. You should a.

They all asked him if he was the messiah. Jesus told they wouldnt believe whatever he says. But the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of Almighty God. (Vs. 69). Jesus told them he was the Son of God. The Sanhedrin accused Jesus of blasphemy, a sin punishable by death. ii. Trial before Pilate. Read Luke 23: 1 5 The second court was the Roman court. The judge was Pilate, the Roman Governor. In this court the Sanhedrin accused Jesus of: Inciting people to revolt, and rebelling against Roman authority Forbidding people to pay taxes to the Emperor Claiming to be the king, a Messiah, They could not accuse him of blasphemy before Pilate since this offence was not acceptable under the ----- 226 # Roman law. Pilate asked Jesus if he was the king, Jesus replied, So you say. (vs.3). Pilate found no fault with Jesus so he sent him to Herod. iii. Trial by Herod. Read Luke, 23: 6 12 Herod was in Jerusalem. When Jesus was brought before him, he expected Jesus to perform miracles to impress him. He asked Jesus many questions and Jesus kept quiet. Herod and his soldiers mocked Jesus, and ridiculed him. They put on him royal clothes; then sent Jesus back to Pilate. iv. Jesus is sentenced to Death. Read Luke 23: 13 25 Jesus was brought back to Pilate a second time. Pilate repeated that Jesus was not guilty (innocent) of any crime. Pilate offered to have Jesus beaten and then released. The crowds, leaders and chief priests gave their judgement. Kill him! and release Barabbas, who was a rioter and a murderer. Pilate did not find Jesus guilty. But he did what they wanted. He released Barabbas and handed Jesus over for them to do as they wished (vs. 25). v. The crucifixion of Jesus. Read Luke 22: 26-43 Jesus was led away to be crucified. Solders forced Simon of Cyrene to carry the cross for Jesus. Women followed Jesus and weeping. Jesus told them not to weep for Him but for themselves and their children. Jesus was then crucified at a place called Golgotha (place of skull) or Calvary together with two male criminal; one on His right and the other on His Left. Jesus asked God to forgive them (persecutors) for they did not know what they were doing. ----- 227 # The Jewish leaders, said He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Messiah whom God has chosen (vs. 35); Solders mocked Jesus and said Save yourself if you are the king of Jews and one criminal hanged with Jesus mocked Jesus and told Him Arent you the Messiah? Save yourself and me. The other thief rebuked him saying they deserved the punishment for their deeds but Jesus had done nothing. This thief repented and told Jesus, Remember me, Jesus, when you come as King. Jesus told him that he would be in paradise with Jesus on that day (vs. 42 43). On top of the cross, Jews wrote, This is the King of the Jews (vs. 38). LESSON FOUR: DEATH OF JESUS. Read Luke. 23: 44 50 Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson, a. Describe the death of Jesus b. Narrate the burial of Jesus c. State relevance of the suffering and death of Jesus to Christian life today a. The death of Jesus. There was darkness from 12 oclock until thee oclock. The veil/curtain of the temple tore into two. Jesus cried out with a loud voice Father, into they hands I commit my spirit. At this shout Jesus died. The Roman centurion saw and praised God. He declared, Certainly this was an innocent man. The multitude that watched the crucifixion and death went home beating their breasts, a sign of repentance. The women, who knew Jesus from Galilee, stood at a distance watching all these things. b. The burial of Jesus. Read Luke 23: 50 56. ----- 228 # Joseph from Arimathea, a town in Judea sought permission from Pilate to bury the body of Jesus. He was waiting for the coming of the Kingdom of God, a likely secret disciple of Jesus. He was a good and honorable man. The body of Jesus was laid in a sepulchre (Tomb) where nobody had ever been laid. Jesus burial in Josephs tomb fulfilled Isaiahs prophecy that the suffering servant of Yahweh was buried in a rich mans tomb (Isaiah 53:9) The Galilean women and Joseph saw where the body of Jesus was laid. They went home, and prepared spices to use to wash Jesus body. They rested on the Sabbath. c. Relevance of the suffering and death of Jesus Christ to Christian life today Christians today should practice or do the following activities. i. Pray in times of sorrow, pain, trials and temptations. iii They should not give up when rejected. iv They should be aware of hypocrites and traitors amongst them. v They should be willing to suffer for the sake of the Kingdom of God. vi They should be ready to fight for a just cause vii They should never condemn the innocent. viii They should go through their suffering bravely. ix They should know and accept suffering as a part of the Christian calling x They should not be afraid of rejection by people l xi They should be encouraged that Jesus suffered for them. d. In which ways can Christians prepare for their death? Death is inevitable. Hence, Christians should at all times: live a holy life, repent sins, forgive those who ----- 229 # have wronged them, make a will, accept death as inevitable, and read the word of God LESSON FIVE: THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Read Luke 24: 1 53 a. The Resurrection. Resurrection refers to the event of Jesus rising from the dead After the Sabbath day, on Sunday morning; Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, Salome (Joanna) and other women, went to the tomb with the spices they has prepared. They found the entrance open. The stone covering the tomb was rolled away. The tomb was empty. The body of Jesus was not in the tomb. Suddenly, two men, who were angels, appeared dresses in dazzling and shining clothes. They said Why are you looking among the dead for one who is alive? He is not here; he has been raised. The women went and told the 11 disciples, who did not believe them. Peter ran to the tomb and found it empty. Women were the first to witness the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This is significant as they (women) were empowered to become witnesses of Christ as evangelists beyond the Jewish culture. b. Witnesses of the resurrection of Jesus The disciples en route to Emmaus Two disciples were traveling to Emmaus, which was 11 km from Jerusalem discussing Jesus suffering, death and the empty tomb. Jesus met them but their eyes were blinded and they did not recognize him. ----- 230 # The disciples explained to Jesus the events that had taken place and how they had hoped that Jesus would liberate Israel from the Roman rule. Jesus explained to them the scriptures concerning the messiah. When they got to Emmaus, they invited him to dine with them for it was evening. When Jesus, took the bread and said the blessings; then he broke the bread and gave it to them, the disciples recognized Jesus but he vanished out of their sight (vs. 30-31). They returned to Jerusalem and told the 11 disciples that Jesus has risen. c. Jesus appears to his Disciples. Read Luke 24: 36 49. As the two disciples explained the event that happened on the journey to Emmaus, Jesus came and said to them Peace be with you (vs. 36). Disciples were terrified and frightened. He asked them to look and touch his hands, and feet. He was not a ghost. He has flesh and bones unlike ghosts, which do not have. He explained to the apostles his mission, which was prophesied by prophets, and written in the Law of Moses, and Psalms (v.44). He commissioned the disciples to preach repentance and remission of sins and be his witnesses. He also promised to send them the promise of the father (Holy Spirit) SAQ. What was the nature of the resurrected body of Jesus? d. The ascension of Jesus, Luke, 24: 50 53 From Jerusalem, Jesus took his disciples to Bethany, a town outside Jerusalem. He lifted his hands and blessed them. As he blessed them, he was lifted up and carried to heaven. ----- 231 # The disciples worshipped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy. They continued to go to the temple to praise and give thanks to God. The disciples were now confident about their mission and who Jesus was e.

Give the main teachings of Jesus on the sermon on the plain The sermon on the plain consisted of five main parts namely: Blessings (Lk 6: 20 26) and woes These are also referred to as the beatitudes. Here, Jesus had a message for the poor, the rich, those who hunger and those who are full, those who weep and those who laugh. His concern is to show the social differences and mystery of Christian suffering. Persecution seems to be a common phenomenon for followers of Christ. The poor are those who cannot meet their basic needs and Luke depicts them as hungry and weeping. ----- 240 # The disciples are included in the poor because they have given up everything. But Jesus gives hope. Jesus warns the rich against using their economic points to oppress the poor. They have an opportunity, however to belong to the Kingdom by using their riches to help the needy. Love of Enemies: (6:27-37) Followers of Jesus are supposed to Love your enemies, do good to those who hate, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who abuse you. Judging Others (6:37-43) Disciples are expected to acknowledge their own shortcomings before they can condemn the faults in others. Failure to recognize ones fault is a hindrance to becoming a member of the Kingdom of God. Evidence to Good Discipleship The proof of a persons goodness is seen in his deeds. The true nature of a person cannot be hidden because what they do and say will reveal their nature. Hearing and Doing (6: 47-49) It is not enough for His followers to proclaim Christ as Lord. They must also do what He tells them. Q2. What is the relevance of the (beatitudes) sermon on the plain to Christians today? The teachings on blessings and woes tell us that the goal of a person should be to inherit the Kingdom of God. Christians should love their enemies as Jesus loved them sinful as they were. Human beings are self-centered. It is easier to see other peoples mistakes than our own Christian ----- 241 # should examine them before passing judgement on others. By so doing we appreciate that we are all sinners who should seek forgiveness from God and we should always appreciate others however sinful they may be. Be steadfast in faith and do good all the time. LESSION 9: JESUS WORKS OF COMPASSION Q2 Narrate the story of the forgiveness of the sinful woman (Lk 7:36-8:3) On one occasion, Jesus was invited by Simon the Pharisee to his house to eat with him. While this is a sinful woman walked into the house weeping. She began to wet Jesus feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. She kissed his feet and anointed them with an ointment. When Simon saw this, he questioned Jesus power. If he were a prophet, He would have noticed that the woman was a sinner. And Jesus answered him the telling him about a certain creditor who has two debtors, one owed him hundred denarii and the other fifty. When asked Simon which of the two debtors would love the creditors more. Simon said the one who was forgiven more. Jesus said you have judged rightly. Then he had not given Him even water to wash His feet. But the woman used her tears to wet Jesus feet and wiped them using her hair and oiled them. Therefore her sins, which are many, are forgiven for she loved much, one with little love receives little more. ----- 242 # Jesus told Simon he gave him no kiss but the woman had not stopped kissing Him. Those at table began to ask who Jesus was who ever forgiven sins? And He said to the woman, Your faith has saved you, go in peace. Q3. What lessons do Christians learn from the above story? Christians should accept their sins and seek for forgiveness as the sinful woman did. Faith is important for one to be forgiven. Jesus told the woman Your faith has save you. A repentant sinner is greater than a righteous man (the Jewish religious leaders). It is not the magnitude of sin that matters but the attitude of a person towards his sins. Shows the importance of women in the ministry of Jesus. Q4. Describe the story of the raising of the widows son at Nain (Lk 7:11- 17) After His preaching in Capernaum, Jesus went to the city of Nain. He found a man being carried out near the gate. He was the only son of a widow. When the Lord saw her, He had compassionate on her and said to her, Do not weep. Then He came and touched the open coffin. And those who carried him stood still. Jesus said, Young man, arise. And he who was dead sat up and began to speak. Jesus presented him to his mother. Then fear came among all and they glorified God. They said a great prophet has come among us. God has visited His people. ----- 243 # LESSON 10: JESUS TEACHING WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF PARABLES? 1. Give reasons why Jesus used parables To attract the attention of his listeners To help his listeners understand better To separate the serious people from the onlookers To enrich his teachings To avoid direct confrontation with his enemies It was a common way of teaching those days To teach about Gods mercy to sinners To make people think critically out issues concerning Gods kingdom To relate patent issues with those of the future kingdom positively Qn 2. Identify various methods used by Christians in spreading the gospel today Preaching Teaching Being role models Holding crusades Organizing seminars and conferences Electronic mechanisms e.g. sms and emails Print media e.g. posters and magazines Door to door evangelism Through demonstration and role play Through the mass media e.g. radios and TVs Through Christian music e.g. cassettes and C.Ds Qn 3. Discuss the reasons why Jesus faced opposition from the Jewish leaders His popularity His interpretation of the Sabbath His failure to observe the law of fasting ----- 244 # He associated with tax collectors He claimed to be the messiah He out rightly condemned them Teaching with authority His claims to forgive sins. . LESSON 11: MIGHTY WORKS OF JESUS Q1 Narrate the healing of the Gerasene demoniac Lk 8:26-39. After crossing the Sea of Galilee, Jesus came across a demon possessed man in a gentile town called Gerasa. The man had been living in the caves used for burial of the dead. He wore no clothes. When the man saw Jesus, he asked Him not to torment him. When Jesus asked him what his name was, he responded that he was called Legion which stands for 2000 6000 soldiers. This meant that this man possessed by many demons. Jesus had sympathy and ordered the unclean spirits to leave him. Jesus let the evil spirits to go to the pigs, which were grazing nearby. They then fell into the lake and drowned. Q2. What lesson can Christian learn from the healing of the demoniac man above? Jesus valued human life. That is why He led the evil/spirits into the pigs, which drowned into the lake and saved the man. It shows Jesus came for all regardless of tribe. This man was a gentile. Jesus heals the whole person physically and spiritually. That Jesus has power over evil spirits. Shows that Jesus came to destroy the power of evil. ----- 245 # It teaches that Christians have to fight the power of evil constantly. But with Jesus help they will overcome it. God will never allow them to be defeated. He will come to their aid, however, much. They should give out their material possession to save those in need. This man needed help. They should tell their people about God as this man went to in his village etc. Q3. What do the miracle of Jesus teach us about Him? They show that Jesus is the Son of God. That Jesus gets power from God. That Jesus shares his power with His disciples. The miracles show Jesus compassion to suffering people e.g. the raising of the widows son. They also show that Jesus is Lord. He is the life and the resurrection. That affirms that Jesus came to save man from sin. They show that Jesus is a universal savior e.g. the Gesarone demoniac who was a gentile. They were part of His teaching they helped Him teach. Through them He showed the concern for human life, physically, spiritually and mentally. LESSON 12: COMMISSIONING OF THE TWELVE DISCIPLES (LK 1:1-10) Q1. What is the role of the clergy in Kenya?

Building their residential houses in the church compound. Giving matega foodstuffs as part of sadaka during service. LESSON 13: THE TRANSFIGURATION Q2. Describe the transfiguration of Jesus (Luke 9:28-37) Jesus needed encouragement and reassurance that what He was about to do was the will of His Father. Therefore He took with Him Peter, James and John and went to Mount Hermon to pray. As He prayed, His appearance was changed and His face became dazzling white. Two men, Elijah & Moses appeared and talked of His departure (death), which He was to accomplish in Jerusalem. The disciples were asleep as this happened. When they woke up, they saw glory and the two men who stood with Him. And as the men were parting form Him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is well that we are here, Let us make booths, one for you, one for Elijah and one for Moses. As he said this, a cloud cursed the whole area and they were afraid. ----- 247 # A voice came out of the cloud saying, this is my only son, my chosen, Listen to Him. Q3. What is the significance of the transfiguration of Jesus (Lk 9:28-37)? A voice from heaven confirmed that Jesus was the Son of God. It strengthened the faith of the disciples so that they would continue with His work after death. It showed that Jesus had fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies and God. This is seen with the appearance of Elijah and Moses. The cloud was a symbol of Gods presence. It was a sign that Jesus mission was no longer a secret. It marked the onset of His passion, which would lead to His death. It confirmed to Jesus that He was doing the right thing and God was in support of His suffering. It shows that faith in prayer can lead us to Gods presence. TOPIC FOUR: THE JOURNEY TO JERUSALEM LESSON 1: DUTIES, PRIVILEGES AND COST OF DISCIPLESHIP Q1.

To share with them the power of God e.g. in performing miracles. For company as He worked. A COMMITED FOLLOWER OF JESUS Lk 10:25 11:1-13 (Note: Not the parable of the Samaritans) Q1. From the teaching of Jesus on the parable of the Good Samaritan, who do you think is a committed follower of Jesus? One who understands the law and obeys it. One who understands that a neighbor is anybody who requires help regardless of their social status One who uses his resources selflessly to help the needy One who is not restricted by cultural and religious practices in responding to a needy situation One who is compassionate, kind and generous One who shows solidarity with the suffering. This includes identifying with the needy and being ready to experience their suffering. LESSON 3: JESUS TEACHING ON PRAYER Q1. What did Jesus teach about prayer?

One should pray always/continuously. There is no formula in prayer. One should address God as a father. Honestly confess sin as they pray. Qs 1 & 2 are out of topic. LESSON 5: JESUS TEACHINGS ON HYPOCRISY, WEALTH, WATCHFULNESS AND READINESS Q1. Hypocrisy In what areas were the Pharisees hypocritical? In the washing of hands, cups and dishes which were done ceremoniously. The Pharisees were too strict on this, which was not important. He told them to pay attention to issues of charity than external appearance. Tithing habits They paid this well for the support of priests but neglected justice and love for God. He criticized them for recognition in the synagogues by taking reserved seats and their desire to be noticed at market places by wearing long white robes. He accused them of being like their ancestors who persecuted the prophets of God. LESSON 6: (Lesson 6 will come later) AKUKA FIND THEY ARE IN THE TEXT LESSON 7: JESUS TEACHINGS ON WEALTH AND POVERTY Read Lk: 11:13-34 : Parable of the rich fool Q1. From the parable of the rich fool, what can Christians learn about the use of wealth? Material wealth should come second after God. We should try to help the poor. ----- 250 # It teaches that wealth comes from God. Wealth should not be misused e.g. in drinking, etc. We should thank God for wealth received. It can make Christians to forget God. Q2. Narrate the parable of the shrewd manager Jesus taught the following parable about a rich man and his servant. A rich man wanted to sack his manager. He called the manager and asked him for a full account of how the property was being managed. The manager knew he was going to be sacked. He made friends with some of his masters debtors so that they would take care of him if he got sacked. One debtor who owed 100 barrels of olive oil was asked to pay 50 barrels and one who owed 1000 was asked to pay 800 barrels. The master praised him for being wise and acting property in his moment of crisis. LESSION 8: TEACHING ON FORGIVENESS What were the teachings of Jesus on forgiveness? Jesus taught that one should forgive and forget All sins are equal before the eyes of God. One ought to ask for forgiveness after he has wronged. One should forgive as many times as he is offended. One should have faith when asking for forgiveness. PERSISTENT IN PRAYER Q1. State the parable of the widow and the unjust judge 18: 1-8 Jesus told the Pharisees a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart. In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor regarded man. ----- 251 # And there was a widow in that city which kept coming to him and wanted her right given. For a while he refused, but afterwards he said to himself, though I neither fear God nor regard man, yet because this widow bothers me, I will allow her set her right or she will wear me out by her continual coming. And the Lord said, Hear what the unrighteous judge says, and will he not vindicate His elect who cry to Him day and night? Will he delay long over them, I, you, He will vindicate them speedily. LESSON 10: THE WAY TO SALVATION Lk 18: 15 19 Q1: What did Jesus teach by using the example of little children? Jesus said, Let little children come to me because the kingdom of God belongs to such as them. He went on to tell them that for one to enter Gods kingdom, he must humble himself like children. This is because children are powerless, innocent and open. Jesus taught that the kingdom of God is for those who are simple, humble, innocent and trusting like children. Q2. Give an account of how Jesus healed the blind beggar (18:35-43) A blind man recognized Jesus as the messiah. The blind man asked Jesus to heal him. He received his sight because of his faith. He followed Jesus, giving thanks to God. To receive salvation one needs to be bold and determined. We should seek Christ to heal our physical and spiritual blindness. Q3. Explain the relevance of Jesus teaching on salvation to Christians ----- 252 # Christians learn that they need to repent their sins and seek forgiveness in order to receive salvation and eternal life. They need to humble themselves like children in order to earn salvation. They learn to obey the commandments of God so as to receive salvation. Use their abilities to glorify God e.g. the rich mans parable. They too learn that wealth can be a hindrance to salvation. They learn that salvation is given to all by God. TOPIC FIVE: THE JERUSALEM MINISTRY Qn a. describe Jesus triumphant entry into Jerusalem according to Luke chapter 19: 29-30 After his journey from Galilee ended, Jesus approached Jerusalem passing through Bethaphage, Bethany and the mount olives He sent two of his disciples to a village to get him a donkey on which nobody had ridden He gave the disciples instructions that if the owner of the donkey demanded to know why they were untying it, they were to respond, The lord has need for it When they got the donkey, they threw their garments on it and helped Jesus to sit on it As Jesus rode along, they spread their garments on the road The crowds following him rejoiced and praised God for all the wonderful work Jesus had done this included: teaching, healing and feeding the hungry The crowds sang, Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the lord. Peace in heaven and glory in the highest. By singing, the crowds acclaimed Jesus as king. ----- 253 # The Pharisees objected to the crowds singing and asked Jesus to silence them Jesus responded that if his followers were silent, the very stones would cry out. Insensitive than stones not to know what was happening, that is, the Messiah has come Qn b. what does the manner of Jesus entry into Jerusalem reveal about the nature of the kingdom of God? Jesus was a descendant of David, prophesied Messiah and son of God Jesus is a triumphant, victorious yet a humble king. A donkey is a symbol of humility and peace. So he came to establish a peaceful kingdom Jesus wanted to proclaim the coming of his kingdom but not as an earthly/ military leader, thus leading them to lay their garments for him to step on. In doing this, they were acknowledging Jesus as Jerusalems promised king Jesus was greeted as a king the same way the kings of Israel were greeted with acclamation and joy By riding on a donkey, Jesus fulfilled the prophesy of Zechariah which says, the king is coming riding on a donkey triumphant, humble and victorious Christianity is not propagated through violent means but peace Qn c. what lessons can Christians learn fro Jesus triumphant entry into Jerusalem? Christians learn that they should be prepared to receive Jesus into their lives like the crowd which escorted him to Jerusalem Christians also learn that they should emulate Jesus and be channels of peace in their communities ----- 254 # They also learn that they should expect opposition and resistance as they witness to Christ. They should not give up hope Christians learn that they should be humble like Jesus in their service to others Christians should thank and praise God for his intervention in their lives by sending Jesus They should be bold in their witnessing to Christ like the crowds that followed Jesus to Jerusalem and declared him king Qn d. state and explain why Jesus wept over Jerusalem. When Jesus came close to the city of Jerusalem he wept over it saying, If you only knew what is needed for peace! But now you cannot see it! The time will come when your enemies will surround you with barricades block you and close in on you from every side. They will completely destroy you and the people within your walls, not a single stone will they leave in its place because you did not recognize the time when God came to save you. According to Luke, all song and rejoicing stopped suddenly when Jesus was deeply distressed at the sight of Jerusalem Jesus knew that Jerusalem (the city of peace) would reject his final appeal and by so doing would bring judgement down on itself. The destruction of the city is viewed as the consequence of its rejection of Jesus. They cannot see when the true peace comes in the person of Jesus. The coming destruction is a ----- 255 # symbol of Gods judgement on lack of trust. The tears of Jerusalem are the tears of tragedy. The heart of the tragedy is that Jerusalem did not recognize the time when God came to save them Now Jesus says that Jerusalem was not ready to receive him as their savior and this would lead to her ruin Just like the Babylonians were Gods instrument of destruction of Jerusalem during the time of Jeremiah, so will the Romans be instruments of destruction of Jerusalem Jerusalem was completely destroyed by the Roman armies in the year A.D 70 Qn e. Explain the cleansing of the temple. While in Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple where he found people buying and selling He drove them out and overturned their tables saying that they had turned his fathers house into a den of robbers Here Luke uses this incidence to show how Jerusalem was still unprepared for the day of Gods visit Jesus carried out a symbolic act by driving out those who were buying and selling in the temple Jesus used the words of Jeremiah who too attacked the in his time for turning the temple into a hideout for thieves According to Jesus the temple will no longer give them the sense of security because it will be destroyed Although the temple will be destroyed, a new one will be built. This is the Christian community, which ----- 256 # will be a house o prayer for all nations. The new temple will not be limited to Jesus alone but to all people In short Jesus is the Messiah. He exposed the unrighteousness of public life in Jerusalem by attacking the merchants in the temple Qn f. Give reasons why Jesus cleansed the temple of Jerusalem The temple authorities had allowed a market in the court of the gentiles where the everyday money issued by the Roman government could be exchanged for the special temple coins which had to be used for paying the temple tax In the same place they could also buy the animals needed for sacrifice. This animals had to be certified as acceptable But both the changing of money and the certifying of animals gave ample opportunity for making exorbitant profits Jesus made his protest because all this trading was hiding for the real purpose of the temple and prevented Israel from being a light to the gentiles. For this reason, the temple would be destroyed because it was no longer serving as a house of prayer. Qn g. what lessons can Christians learn from the cleansing of the temple? Christians learn that they should respect the house of God and use it appropriately Christian leaders should avoid exploiting members through asking for excessive contributions Christians should pay more attention to inward righteousness than external observance of rituals ----- 257 # Christians should have more courage like Jesus to condemn evil practices by leaders in the church and society Christians should be exemplary with their life styles so as to win others to the kingdom Finally the cleansing of the temple by Jesus provides valuable lesson to Christians who are called upon to be Christs ambassadors. There are many incidents where churches have been subjected to disrespect and dishonor and this discourages many people from knowing God. Christians should also avoid leadership wrangles, corruption, sexual abuse, gossip and many others that have caused churches to split Qn h. explain Jesus conflict with the Jewish leaders In a series of conflicts in and around the temple between Jesus and the official leaders of the Jewish nation, the public ministry of Jesus came to its close After the cleansing the temple, he daily dominated the temple area teaching large crowds. His popularity grew steadily and the leaders felt the threat against their own position. They could not allow this to go on but they were afraid to arrest Jesus. In the end they tried to trap him into making statements which would either get him into trouble with the Roman authorities or discredit him before the people First Jesus was challenged about his authority. The Jewish religious leaders wondered whose authority ----- 258 # Jesus used. They wanted to know which Rabii taught him or to which Jewish religious groups he belonged to i.e. the Pharisees or the Sadducees If Jesus proclaimed himself as the Messiah he could be accused before the Roman authorities for rebellion If he refused to make his claim the crowds would soon leave him alone But Jesus skillfully defeated his adversaries. He invited them to answer their own question. Tell me, did Johns right to baptize come from God or human beings? Whatever answer they gave to Jesus question about John the Baptist would apply in even stronger measures to their own question about Jesus But they had never supported John and they could no now admit that his right to baptize came from God If they did they would also have to accept Jesus whom John had announced. Neither could they say John was a prophet for that would bring trouble from the people who held John in high self-esteem Qn i. Describe the parable of the tenants in the vineyard After the question of Jesus authority, Jesus challenged the Jewish leaders by telling them the parable of the wicked tenants. He said that there was once a man who planted a vineyard, let it to the tenants and then left home for a long time When the time came to gather the grapes, he sent a slave to the tenants to receive from them his share of the harvest but the tenants beat the slaves and sent him back without a thing. The same ----- 259 # treatment was given to the second and the third slave The owner decided to send his own son whom they killed. He therefore decided to come by himself, killed the tenants and handed over the vineyard to other men When the people heard this they said, surely not but Jesus explained to them the stone which the builders rejected as worthless turned out to be the most important of all. And every one who falls on the stone will be cut to pieces and if that stone falls on someone, it will crush him to dust In this parable, the vineyard represents Gods kingdom, Israel. The servants are the prophets sent to Israel and they are rejected. The son here represents Jesus and the owner is God who will bring judgement on Israel The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone this shows that Jesus saw himself as the rejected but most important. He makes a new foundation of Israel for both Jews and Gentiles. On hearing this, the Pharisees wanted to seize Jesus but were afraid of the people Qn j. what is the relevance of the parable of the tenants? Over the centuries the situation has not changed. Jesus is still rejected by nations and by men What happened to Jesus happened as he foretold those who follow him Church history reveals many examples of men rejected by political and religious leaders and by the people their time and who have later been seen as the key man in the revelation of Gods purpose ----- 260 # As Christians we should also pray for strength and guidance from God to be able to deal with rejection As Christians we should not fear rejection but stand firm for the truth Christians should also seek pastoral counseling fro the church leaders and other Christians. When we endure persecution we may be finally proved right Qn k. the question about paying taxes The teachers of law and the chief priest, after falling to arrest Jesus bribed some spies to ask whether it was right for the to pay taxes to Caesar or not The Israelites were compelled to pay taxes to the Romans who controlled them Many resented this because according to them payment of taxes using coins which had some emperors image was a violation of the Jewish law which forbade the use of images If Jesus would tell them to pay, the people would be against him for supporting Roman rule over them Many resented this because according to them people would be against him for supporting Roman rule over them If he told them not to pay, they would accuse him to the Roman authorities Jesus knew their trick and wanted his questioners to make their own decision about the issue According to him it was right for the Roman government to exert the tax payments without demeaning Gods authority In other words, by having the silver coin in their possession, the Jews accepted Roman authority ----- 261 # They had a duty to pay tax to the emperor because they enjoyed the benefit of the Roman rule At the same time they had a duty to be loyal to God. A persons loyalty should not be owed to the state or Caesar Qn l. explain the question about resurrection The Sadducees raised the question concerning marriage an resurrection or life after death They asked Jesus whose wife a woman would be in the resurrection when she married seven brothers who had died without bearing children The question was meant or designed to make Jesus look foolish thus to shame him. This would undermine the popular support that we had prevented action against Jesus In his response, Jesus made the following observations He does not accept the assumption that marriage continues after resurrection Quoting from exodus a book that the Sadducees accepted, Jesus confirms that there is life after death The resurrection life is different from earthly life It is a new existence where those who resurrect, live with God as his children in eternity Qn m. what is eschatology? The term eschatology is derived from two Greek words Eschatus and Lagos, which means end and study respectively Eschatology therefore is the study of the last things such as death, judgement, life after death and th end of the world ----- 262 # Jesus talked about the end of the world to his disciples just before he was arrested Qn n. what will happen at the end of the world (eschatology) according to Jesus teaching in Lukes gospel 21: 5-38? Jesus taught hi disciples about the end times in the temple of Jerusalem In his speech, he talked about what will happen to the city of Jerusalem and the world at the end of time Jerusalem was going to be destroyed because of her refusal to recognize and accept the Messiah Jesus told the disciples of the signs that would accompany the end of the world People come claiming to be Jesus the Messiah, the son of God There will be wars between nations Natural calamities like earthquakes, famines and plagues will occur Strange heavenly beings will come from the sky There will be disruption in the sky and in the sea All nations will be in despair People will faint from fear as they witness these signs At the end of all these, the son of man will appear in power and glory Jesus teaching of the end times was meant to provide encouragement to the disciples in difficult times They were expected to have hope Qn o. how do Christians prepare for the second coming of Christ? Christians should prepare for the second coming of Christ by not losing hope in the face of trials and tribulations because the kingdom of God with its promises of a new life will definitely come ----- 263 # They prepare for his second coming by leading a righteous life. They are to avoid too much feasting and drinking They should prepare by being watchful through prayers so that God will give them courage and strength to stand firm in their faith They should prepare by preaching the word of God to those who have not heard it They should prepare by being obedient to Gods commandments They should prepare by helping the needy They should prepare by preaching and evangelizing and converting others TOPIC SIX: THE PASSION, DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST THE LORDS SUPPER Qn a. give the different names used in reference to the Lords Supper by Christians in different churches The holy Eucharist The mass The lords table or the table of the lord The Holy Communion The Last Supper The breaking of bread The sacrament Qn b. describe the institution of the Lords Supper Jesus was at the last supper with his disciples the night he was betrayed In the room which had been arranged by Jesus.

He gave it to them saying, this is my body which is given for you. So do this in memory of me He took a cup of wine and gave thanks to God and said take this and share it among yourselves He also gave them a cup of wine after supper saying this cup is Gods new covenant sealed with my blood which is poured out for you Qn c. state the Christian teachings about the Lords Supper The Last Supper was inaugurated by Jesus Its celebration of the crucified and rise Christ The Lords Supper is a gift from God It is a sacrifice of praise and thanks giving It is the churchs effective proclamation of Gods mighty works acts and promises It is a sign of the unity of the church or the believers It is a new paschal meal of the church. The meal, which by visible signs communicates Gods love in Jesus Christ. It is the sacrament of Christs real presence The bread is a symbol of the body of Christ which was crucified The wine or cup is a symbol of his blood, which was shed. It is the blood of the new covenant It is a fore state of Christs passion and of the final kingdom. It is symbolic of the heavenly banquet It is central to Christian worship. (Eucharist) Qn d. what is the meaning of the Lords Supper to Christians? The sacramental meal communicates Gods love in Christ The washing of the disciples feet by Jesus signifies humble service to and love for one another They proclaim the lords death until his second coming ----- 265 # They share in the body of Christ The unity of Christians is evidenced The bread symbolizes the body of Jesus which was crucified on the cross for the sins of human kind and for the healing of their diseases The wine symbolizes the blood of Jesus which was shed for forgiveness of sins The wine also symbolizes the sealing of a new covenant The partaking of the Lords Supper strengthens the faith of believers in that, Christs presence is felt and in this way they constantly keep in touch with him The lords supper enhances a personal relationship between the individual believer ad Christ It is thanksgiving to God for everything accomplished in creation, redemption and sanctification Through the Holy Communion, Christians offer themselves as a holy and living sacrifice. They rededicate and renew themselves. Those who share in the sacred meal declare their loyalty to Christ The Lords Supper is an act of repentance. The partakers receive re- assurance of the forgiveness of sins and are assured of salvation The bread and the wine which represents the body and blood of Jesus become the final sacrifice replacing all O.T sacrifices that were offered for the salvation of the human race Qn f. Prayer on mount olives After celebrating the last supper, Jesus and his disciples went to mount olives He knelt down and prayed and asked his disciples to join him ----- 266 # In response, God sent an angel from heaven to encourage him Jesus prayed in agony until his sweat was like drops of blood This sweat which was like blood was an indication of the struggle and agony he went through to accept the will of his father Though Jesus suffered agony and turmoil, he approached it with great courage and composure His suffering was even greater for it involved more than physical pain. It meant bearing the sin of the world So he prayed to God, his father to give him strength for his coming mission When he went back to his disciples, he found them asleep a sign of moral and physical exhaustion or maybe it was an indication that they were in sorrow because Jesus had told them he was about to be crucified In conclusion, we can say that Jesus expressed an inner struggle about the fulfillment of his Messianic mission. So he prayed to God to help him bear the suffering. Prayer was very important in Jesus ministry Qn g. describe the betrayal and arrest of Jesus When Jesus came down from Mt. Olives he met a multitude of people Judas Iscariot appeared accompanied by a large crowd, the chief priest, elders and the temple guards who had ordered to arrest Jesus Judas Iscariot came forth and kissed Jesus. This was a sign identifying Jesus as the man they were looking for. That kiss was the betrayal ----- 267 # When the disciples noticed what was happening one of them used his sword to cut off the ear of a high priests slave In other words Jesus stopped his disciples from resisting his arrest By rejecting armed assistance, Jesus was refusing the role of a political Messiah Jesus was arrested and taken to the house of the chief priest Annas Qn h. state the reasons that made Judas Iscariot to betray Jesus He lacked moral courage to stand by Jesus during his moment He could have been an informer of the Jewish religious leaders He was overcome by the power of evil He was disappointed by Jesus teaching on spiritual kingdom rather than fulfilling the Jewish expectation of a political Messiah who could liberate them from the Roman rule He was a mercenary motivated by greed for money He had little faith in Jesus or lost his trust in Jesus Christ He was not loyal to the master He was a northerner who felt foreign and thus was jealous against other disciples He was a zealot who believed in war rather than peace Qn i. Describe the trial of Jesus under the following The council of Sanhedrin Jesus was brought to the Sanhedrin council early in the morning following his arrest The council of elders asked him if he was the Messiah Jesus responded by speaking of the son of the man coming in triumph The Sanhedrin accused him of the sin of blasphemy for allegedly claiming to be the son of God He was condemned to die for alleged blasphemy ----- 268 # In the Jewish law, blasphemy was punishable by death The trial before Pilate Since the Sanhedrin could not carry out the death sentence, they took Jesus to the Roman governor Pilate They accused Jesus of inciting the people to revolt, forbidding payment of taxes and claiming to be a king in rebellion to Roman authority They could not accuse Jesus of blasphemy. This charge would not be accepted under Roman law However, by taking Jesus to Pilate, the Jewish religious leaders wanted the Roman authority to take responsibility for Jesus death The trial before Herod Jesus ministry works had mesmerized Herod. So when Pilate learned that Jesus was from Galilee, he handed him over to Herod who was the district officer of Galilee and happened to be in Jerusalem at that time The trial of Jesus before Herod (only mentioned in St. Lukes gospel) is not really a trial because king Herod only wanted to satisfy his curiosity about Jesus He joined the soldiers in mocking Jesus Jesus refused to answer Herods questions and he consequently sent Jesus back to Pilate Interestingly the mockery by Herod and his soldiers as another step in the public ridicule of Jesus. It will continue as he hangs on the cross Pilates judgement Jesus was brought to Pilate a second time ----- 269 # Pilate reiterated that he found Jesus not guilty of any crime The chief priests prevailed upon Pilate who passed a sentence of death on Jesus to die by crucifixion. This was the punishment of high treason according to the Roman law The Jewish leaders asked that Barnabas a criminal be released instead of Jesus It was customary for a convicted person to be released during the Passover So the Jewish leaders and not the Jewish people or Pilate were responsible for Jesus death Jesus was killed because of the blind hatred of the Jewish leaders Qn j. why do you think Pilate agreed to have Jesus crucified? He was afraid of a Jew revolt. It was his duty to maintain peace in his territory in accordance with the expectations of the Roman emperor. If he had released Jesus, the Jew would have caused a disturbance He did not want to be disloyal to the Roman emperor after learning that Jesus had been accused of treason. Disloyalty could have resulted in losing favor with the emperor and consequently his job He washed his hands. This means that he was absolving himself of the guilt of having Jesus crucified. This is because he had learnt from the Jewish leaders that Jesus was the Son of God. His wife had also cautioned him about Jesus innocence. Pilate himself had found no evidence to convict Jesus Qn k. identify and explain the lessons that Christians learn from the actions of Pilate during the trial of Jesus Jesus is the king of the Jews ----- 270 # Jesus is without sin. Pilate found no guilt in Jesus and he sent him to Herod Pilate gave in to their demands on the grounds of treason- Christians should refrain from giving false witness Pilate was afraid of a revolt. It was his duty to maintain peace as a Roman officer. Christians learn that they should not be compromised by worldly standards Christians should stand firm for the truth because the truth will always prevail Christians should strive not to loose favour with God. They should desire to please God rather than man Pilate washed his hands he learnt that Jesus is truly the son of God (innocent) Great evil can happen when the truth is at the mercy of political pressure Christians should take time before making decisions Resisting the truth leaves a person without purpose or direction Qn l. actions taken by the Jewish leaders to ensure that Jesus was put to death They paid Judas Iscariot to betray him They bought false witnesses to accuse him of blasphemy before Sanhedrin/ blasphemy was punishable by stoning to death They hurriedly tried Jesus at night before people knew what was happening They framed treason charge against Jesus when he appeared before Pilate/ treason carried a death sentence ----- 271 # They employed armed temple guards and armored soldiers to deal with those who would fight for Jesus They blackmailed Pilate to have Jesus crucified They organized a mob to shout for the death of Jesus and release of Barnabas They crucified him dead when they got permission from Pilate Qn m. explain the crucifixion of Jesus Jesus was given the cross beam to carry to his crucifixion site Simon of Cyrene helped him carry it A group of women followed Jesus and wept over his plight Jesus asked them to weep over themselves and their children He talked about the impending destruction coming over Jerusalem Jesus eventually arrived at Golgotha and was nailed on the cross Two criminals were crucified on either of his sides After his crucifixion, the soldiers cast lots to divide his garments. This action fulfilled psalms 22: 18, Jesus is the righteous Messiah who suffers unjustly and is mocked by people as he cries to God The soldiers, Jewish leaders and one of the thieves mocked Jesus for claiming to be the royal Messiah Jesus is mocked with the challenge to save himself One of the criminals crucified with Jesus usually referred to as the repentant thief acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah and admitted the justness of his own condemnation Above Jesus it was written, this is the king of Jews Jesus forgave his killers and all those who had accused him falsely. He promised one of the thieves hanging on the cross a place in paradise Qn n. describe the death of Jesus ----- 272 # The death of Jesus was preceded by extra ordinary happenings Darkness covered the land for three hours The curtain in the temple tore into two Jesus died after crying father into thy hands I commit my spirit On seeing Jesus die, the Roman centurion who was present testified to Jesus innocence. As he recognized Jesus lordship In his death, Jesus showed total commitment to Gods will Qn o. the burial of Jesus Joseph of Arimathea, a rich and righteous member of the Sanhedrin asked Pilate to allow him bury Jesus Joseph could have been a secret disciple of Jesus Jesus burial in Josephs grave fulfilled Isaiahs prophesy concerning the suffering servant of Yahweh who was buried in a rich mans tomb A group of women followed Joseph and saw where he buried Jesus They went back home to prepare spices with which to wash Jesus body after the Sabbath Jesus was indeed a king judged by the way he was buried THE RESURRECTION: Qn p. define the term resurrection The term resurrection refers to the event of Jesus rising from the dead. This event took place on the third day i.e. the Sunday morning after Jesus was crucified on Friday afternoon Qn q. the witnesses of the risen Christ The testimony of the repentant thief He rebuked his unrepentant companion He recognized his own sinful condition ----- 273 # He declared Jesus to be sinless He professed in Jesus true Messiah-ship and Lordship He recognized that Jesus would live and exercise his saving power after he died The testimony of Joseph of Arimathea Joseph of Arimathea was a secret disciple of Christ He witnessed to the lordship of Jesus Christ after his death by his actions He did this by seeking permission from Pilate to bury the body of Jesus By giving Jesus this royal burial he was witnessing to the truth that Jesus was king Testimony of the holy woman On the day after the Sabbath, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Jesus went to the tomb planning to prepare Jesus body for a proper burial On arrival, they found the stone covering the tomb had been rolled away The tomb was also empty Two men in dazzling clothes confirmed that Jesus had risen as he had prophesied. The two men were angles When the women learnt of Jesus resurrection, they broke the news to the apostils and all the others. The apostles rejected the womens testimony The testimony of disciples on their way to Emmaus Jesus appeared to the disciples who were on their way to Emmaus They were discussing Jesus suffering, death and the empty tomb They regarded Jesus death as a tragedy, for they had hoped he would liberate the Jews from the Roman rule Jesus explained to the scriptures, which say the messiah would suffer to reach his glory. ----- 274 # They invited Jesus to dine with them Jesus shared the Holy Eucharist with them before they recognized whom he was at the breaking of the bread The disciples at Emmaus thus became the second witnesses to the risen Christ. The effect of this testimony is that the disciples went and told the eleven apostles about their encounter with the risen Christ Qn r. the appearance of Jesus to the disciples As the disciples narrated their encounter with Jesus to the eleven apostles, Jesus appeared to them Jesus asked them to confirm that he had risen by touching his body He explained to the apostles his mission through telling them the prophesies about him in the law of Moses, prophets and psalms Jesus brought his disciples to be witnesses by proclaiming repentance and forgiveness of sins He tested some cooked fish He promised that he was going to be with them through the power of the Holy Spirit THE ASCENSION OF JESUS Qn s. Describe the ascension of Jesus From Jerusalem Jesus led his disciples to Bethany He raised his hands blessed the disciples and lifted to heaven The disciples returned and witnessed Jesus ascension with joy They continued to go to the temple to pray to God waiting for the holy spirit that Jesus had promised them ----- 275 # From this incidence where Jesus blessed the disciples, we learn that the disciples became confident about their mission. This earlier disbelief and blindness to who Jesus was now overcome Qn t. Give five evidences from the bible that show that Jesus Christ rose from the dead The tomb was empty Assurance of the angle to the women that Jesus had risen Thomas witnessed the resurrection by feeling the scars on Jesus hands The women who had gone to the tomb had found it empty The disciples witnessed his resurrection when he appeared to the two disciples at Emmaus Jesus shared a meal with his disciples after his resurrection in Jerusalem Jesus walked with the disciples up to Bethany prior to his ascension Qn t. explain the significance of passion, death and the resurrection of Jesus to Christian life The passion deed and resurrection refers to seven incidences namely, Jesus last supper, suffering in the garden, suffering before Sanhedrin, Pilate and Herod; mocking by the soldiers, death on the cross, resurrection and ascension Those events are of great significance to the modern Christians. First they proof that Jesus was indeed the son of God and the Messiah The passion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ was a fulfillment of the old testament prophesies and Psalms The resurrection resulted in the rapid spread of the church. The spread of the church is as a result of the risen Christ and the influence of the Holy Spirit ----- 276 # The resurrection is thus the basis/ the central idea or foundation in the Christian faith and missionary activity; if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is useless and you believing it is useless The passion, death and resurrection reveal the power of God to those who believe in him. They also prove that Jesus who was Gods triumphant envoy is alive and Christians are assured living again after the physical death The raising of Jesus from the dead proved that Jesus was not only man but lord over human life so that Christians share in his life on earth by believing in him and living according to the fruits of the holy spirit The resurrection of Jesus is a source of inspiration and confidence in Christians. It also points to the fact that Jesus was a man of his word i.e. he fore told the resurrection and it came to pass. His resurrection was a real fact because he showed his disciples the crucifixion marks All that happened during the passion, death and resurrection of Christ was just a completion of Gods revelation through Christ They also point to the power and glory of God in which those who believe share in the hope of their own resurrection in the second coming of Jesus Qn v. the significance of Jesus resurrection to Christians today It is the foundation of the Christian faith and hope which their belief would be useless Christian faith would be in vain (futile) if Jesus had not resurrected ----- 277 # Through resurrection Christians have confidence and hope in God because the one they believe in has been exalted and sits at the right hand of God almighty Through the resurrection, Christians are given hope of eternal life The resurrection of Jesus led to the coming of the holy spirit which helps Christians to live according to the teachings of Christ, preach the gospel and speak boldly against the evils in the society The resurrection give meaning to baptism in that one dies in sin and is raised with Christ to new life The resurrection confirms the divinity of Jesus as the true son of God The resurrection gives Christians courage to face death because they have hope of resurrecting at his second return It is remembered by Christians during the Eucharist Qn w. explain five importance of Eulogy of death in the society today It enables mourners to know the cause or nature of death It enables the mourners to forgive the dead person incase of any grudge between them and the dead person It enables the mourners to ask for forgiveness from the dead person It enables the mourners know the wish or last words of the deceased before he/ she died Mourners have an opportunity to declare what they owe or are owed by the dead It enables mourners to know the contribution of work of the dead to the society It provides the mourners with an opportunity to know the nature or character of the dead and his/her social life ----- 278 # It enables mourners to know the background or life history of the deceased e.g. education.

Read 1 Corinthians chapters 12, 13, and 14. Spiritual gifts are extra-ordinary favors, talents, abilities, and dispositions given to Christians by God for ----- 280 # the benefit of all believers. The gifts are used for the service of others and not for self-glorification and gratification. The message of Peter on the day of the Pentecost Peter told the disciple that what was happening was the fulfillment of Jesus prophecy. - He said that Jesus of Nazareth was the Son of God. - He said that the suffering and death of Jesus was according to Gods plans.

Speaking in tongues, preaching, and martyrdom without love is useless. Components of Love Love is patient, kind, not jealous or boastful, not arrogant or rude, is not ill mannered or selfish, and does not insist on its own way. It is not disrespectful. It is not irritable or resentful. It does not rejoice at wrong but rejoices in truth. It bears all things. Love believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. Love is eternal. Love never fails. The other gifts are temporary but love, faith and hope are eternal. c.

Read ACTS 2: 14-41 Introduction Jews commemorate Pentecost day. This is the day that God gave Moses his laws on mount Sinai. It is also referred to as the festival of weeks. Pentecost day was celebrated 50 days after the Passover. It was compulsory for all Jews. On this day, Jews brought offering, the first fruits of harvest, to the temple in Jerusalem. Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson You should be able: - 1. Describe Pentecost day 2. Narrate Peters Message. 3. Explain the relevance of the Pentecostal Experience a. Pentecost a day On the Pentecostal day, the disciples were gathered in Jerusalem awaiting the promise of the Holy Spirit. And as promised, the Holy Spirit came in the form of a strong wind, and tongues of fire. The Holy Spirit rested on the head of each disciple. The disciples received the gift of the Holy Spirit. They spoke in new tongues. Some of the observers mistook this experience. They thought that the disciples were drunk with wine. ----- 285 # Peter stood up to explain what was happening and defend the disciples. He told those who saw the experience that the disciples were not drunk. It was in the morning. b. Peters Message. Read Joel 2: 28 32 Peter told the onlookers that; what was happening is fulfillment of Joels prophesies about the outpouring of Gods spirit. He said that Jesus of Nazareth was the Son of God. This was proved by the miracles that Jesus performed. He emphasized that the suffering and death of Jesus was according to Gods plans. Jesus is a descendant of David. Death and the resurrection of Jesus fulfilled prophesies in the Old Testament. God raised Jesus from the dead. He taught that Jesus had both the nature of God and Man. The apostles are the living witnesses of the resurrection of Jesus. Jesus has been exalted and sits on the right hand of God where He is Lord and Judge. They holy Spirit is a gift from Jesus Peter then invited the listeners to repentance so that they could be forgiven and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Three thousand souls accepted salvation message and were added to the fellowship of the disciples. c. After the Holy Spirit infilling.

Pray to be filled with the Holy Spirit like Peter and those in church leadership should take their roles seriously. e. Relevance of the Pentecostal Experience Speaking in diverse tongues signified that Christianity is a universal religion. It pointed out the importance of all languages when communicating to God. There were no specific languages for speaking with God, as it was when Latin was the language of literacy and Christianity. Christians should be bold in their preaching. They should not be afraid as they have the counsel and helper, the Holy Spirit. Christians should understand that God chooses anyone as a leader, preacher, and witness of Christ. Pentecostal experience signifies that Christians need to receive and be filled with the Holy Spirit Revision questions a) Explain the meaning of the Pentecost b) Describe the manifestations of the holy spirit on the day of the Pentecost (Acts 2: 1-40)(or narrate the events that took place on the day of the Pentecost) c) Write down five teachings about Jesus from Peters speech on the day of the Pentecost d) What were the qualities of peter that made him a successful leader of the apostolic church? ----- 287 # e) What lessons can Christians learn from the events of the day of the Pentecost? f) State the teachings of Jesus on the holy spirit (John 14:14-26) (acts 1:7- 8) g) What is the role of the holy spirit according to Jesus? h) What is the role of the holy spirit in the believers or the church or Christians? i) Outline the fruits of the holy spirit j) State the criteria for discerning the spiritual gifts k) List down the gifts of the holy spirit l) Explain why Paul taught that love is the greatest of all spiritual gifts m) Explain how the Holy spirit is manifested in the church today n) State ways in which the gifts of the holy spirit are being abused in the church today TOPIC TWO: THE UNITY OF BELIEVERS Learning outcomes.

Learning outcomes. By the end of this lesson you should be able to: - i. Describe activities of early Christians ii. Describe characteristics of the people of God iii. Explain the meanings of these symbolic expressions - The body of Christ - The Vine and the Branches ----- 288 # - The Church / Assembly of God - The Bride a. Early Christians The early Christians in Jerusalem demonstrated their unity by. Holding joint prayer sessions Sharing the Lords supper, that is Eucharist. Sharing their possessions with the poor. The showed oneness and unity as believers. They expressed their oneness using various terms, images, metaphors and symbols. They regarded themselves as the people of God, the church and an Assembly of God. When they celebrated the last supper, eating of bread was a symbol of the body of Christ. They saw themselves as belonging to one tree with the vine and branches. As followers of Christ, the early Church saw itself as the Bride of Christ. b. Discussion of Symbolic Expressions i. The people of God Read 1 PETER 2: 9-10. Peter has outlined the characteristics of the people of God. He says that the people of God are Believers in God: through faith in Jesus Christ. The Chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation a chosen people Those who stand out from the rest because they live a holy and righteous life. Form a Holy nation chosen to proclaim the works of God. Not just the descendants of Abraham but people who follow Jesus Christ and His teachings. ii. The body of Christ Read 1 Corinthians 12:12-27, and Ephesians 4:1-12. ----- 289 # The Holy Spirit is the one who brings Christians together as one body of Christ to serve the church. Christians are given gifts for the purpose of sharing the body of Christ. Jesus Christ is the head of the church. And just as the body has many parts, playing different roles, so has the Church. Every member of the church plays a vital role because different members have different spiritual gifts and callings. Some are Apostles, Teachers, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Miracle performers, Administrators and those who show mercy to others and encourage (exhort) others. All church activities should be directed to the welfare of the church, just as the function of each part of the body is necessary for the well being of the whole body. To have a united body, members should be meek, and patient in order to bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit. For a church to be united, or to be considered as one body, Christians should have faith in God the father, one Lord Jesus Christ, one Holy Spirit and have faith in God through Jesus Christ. iii. The Vine and the Branches Read John 15:1-10 The vine represents Jesus. Vine tree was a tree that bore grapes. The vine tree was a symbol of prosperity and peace. Jesus is the vine and the Father is the vinedresser. Christians/ believers are the branches. They are expected to produce good fruits by remaining faithful and united in Christ. Faithful branches bear fruit like good Christians while unfruitful branches are like unfruitful Christians. ----- 290 # Christians should remain united to Christ who is the vine so as to bear fruits. The teachings of Jesus purify the Christians. The dead branches of the Vine trees are cut off and the livings ones are trimmed or pruned. This is done so that the vines may produce high yields. Likewise unfaithful Christians, believers are rebuked and corrected so as to bear high yields. iv. The Church or Assembly of God. Read Ephesians 5: 21 32 Church is a Greek word ekklesia, which means people. People who belong to the Lord. Assembly of God is the coming together of people of diverse social and cultural backgrounds who recognize lordship of Jesus. The church is likened to the relationship between a husband and a wife. Christians (the church) are expected to be united with Christ just as a husband and wife are united in marriage. Just as husbands and wives are expected to love one another, so too, are Christians called upon to express love to one another and to love God. A husband is the head of a family; Jesus is also the head of the church. v. The Bride. Read 2 Corinthian 11: 2, and Revelations 21: 1 12 In the Old Testament, God calls Israel a bride. In the New Testament, Christians are referred to as a bride in the New Jerusalem. God or Jesus Christ is the bridegroom. Christians are reminded that the life on earth is a temporary home. Their real home is in heaven, the Holy city of God. Just as a bride is expected to be faithful to her husband, so are Christians expected to be faithful to God by observing the ----- 291 # covenant way of life. Deviation from the covenant was portrayed as adultery. John, who wrote the book of revelations, sees a vision of a new heaven and a new earth in which faithful Christians will be rewarded. Christ will come to take His bride to eternity to live there forever. The relationship between Christians and Jesus/ God is like a marriage. It is a covenant. It is a relationship where the church (bride) is expected to submit to God. Jesus died for the church, a show of His or Gods love. Likewise Christians should be committed in their relationship to God. SAQ. 1. Discuss in twos who is a bride and what takes place in a wedding. 2. Discuss the significance of the symbols used to express the unity of the believers. These are The people of God, The body of Christ, The vine and the branches The church or assembly of God and The bride. LESSON TWO: CAUSES OF DISUNITY IN THE EARLY CHURCH The early church experienced some challenges, which led to divisions among the early disciples and Christians. Learning Outcomes. After reading this lesson, i Identify causes of disunity in the early church ii State causes of disunity in the modern church iii Compare the causes of disunity in the early and modern church iv Suggest possible solutions to disunity in modern church a. Causes of Disunity in the Early Church ----- 292 # After Jesus ascended to his Father and left the Holy Spirit to look after his followers, the disciples established congregations or communities to spread the Word of God. As believers of Christ met and prayed together, there were disagreements and divisions brought about by several factors and issues. These were: Disputes, among early Christians; concerning leadership of the Church. Christians wanted different leaders: Paul, Apollos, Cephas or Christ. Paul told them that Christ couldnt be divided (1 Corinthians 1:10 -21). Sexual immorality was another cause of disunity in the early church. Some Christians were doing or having irresponsible sexual behaviours. These were incest, fornication, and prostitution. Paul condemned such behaviours and told Christians to stop sinning and honor God with their bodies. The body of a Christian is the temple of the Holy Ghost (1 Corinthian 5: 1-13, 6:12 20). Christians settling disputes in civil courts. Paul advised they ought to talk over issues among themselves and agree to solve problems on their own (1 Corinthians 6). Dispute over marriage and divorce. Some Christians were opposed to marriage. Others were encouraging divorce. Paul addressed these issues in 1 Corinthian, chapter 71-16. Paul advised Christians that it was okay to marry or not to marry. But marriage was needed to stop immorality. ----- 293 # Eating of meat offered to idols. Some Christians were eating meat offered to idols while others were against it. Paul advised Christians not to eat anything that will cause their faith to weaken or fail. (1 Corinthians 8 and10: 14 20. There were disputes about dressing during worship. Should women cover their head during worship? Should women shave hair? Should men wear long hair? (1 Corinthian 11:1-16). Some Christians were overeating and over drinking during the Holy Communion misuse of the Lords Supper, (1 Corinthians 11:17 33). Misuses of spiritual gift especially the gift of speaking in tongues. Paul taught that all gifts are equal (1 Corinthians 12). There was a misunderstanding about the resurrection of the body and the dead. Some were saying there is no resurrection. Paul preached that if there is no resurrection then their preaching was in vain as they were witnesses to the resurrection of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15). b. Causes of disunity among believers and church in Kenya today Leadership differences. Some Christians are struggling for power. This has led to formation of splinter groups, divisions and enmity between these groups. Cultural differences. Christians are divided by their African cultural beliefs from their backgrounds. This culture is merged with Christianity and Western cultural practices forming a unique mixture of beliefs. ----- 294 # Some Christians are permissive, while others are conservative. This has led to disunity, for example in the areas of dressing. Discrimination. There is inequality within the church between the rich and the poor, the whites and blacks. Some Christians are viewed as more spiritual than others, on basis of the tribe, gender, wealth and social status among others. Misuse of freedom of worship. Christians are starting sprinter churches, probably because they want to control church finances without supervision by the wider church. To justify their departure, they spread propaganda against the mother church, and other churches in order to attract followers. The more followers a church has the more tithe it collects. Misuse of church funds. Some church leaders and followers misuse church funds Differences in the practice of baptism Arrogance and pride by some Christians. Sins: sexual immorality in the church, divorce and marriage issues. Some Christian denominations reject the human nature of the person of Jesus Christ; that Christ had both a human and divine nature e.g. Nomiya church. SAQ. Can you think of factors that led to disunity among Christians in the early church that you have noted in the Kenyan church? c. Reasons why Christians should work in Unity. Christians face many problems and they therefore need to work together in unity to: Promote oneness of Christians in Jesus Christ. ----- 295 # Promote the teachings of Jesus Christ. Achieve effective evangelism or ministry. Adopt a common attitude to the integration of African culture in worship. Prevent the formation of sprinter groups and cults. Reduce the internal wrangling. Have a common stand in dealing with issues affecting the society. d. Possible Solutions to disunity The church should settle issues that divide its members by Christians: Learning to appreciate and respect the practices and belief of other Christians denominations. Having or forming a common goal Striving to be guided by the principle of love in solving problems facing them. Observing the teachings of disciples, prophets, apostles, God, laws of Moses, Jesus and the Bible. Avoiding doing anything to their fellow Christians that would cause suffering and disharmony. Activities that the early church did in order to remain united were that they: Ate bread together. Held fellowships together. Shared with the needy. Prayed together for each other In the current worldwide Church, there is disunity amongst believers or Christians. The most common ones are due. Leadership differences and wrangles for power. Cultural differences amongst Christians. Some Christians are permissive while others are conservative. Differences in the interpretation of the Bible. ----- 296 # Misuse of church funds Pride and arrogance. Revision questions a. Write down terms used in the new testament to refer to believers in Christ b. Identify five causes of disunity in the church today c. Identify factors which cause disunity among the Christians today d. Discuss reasons why members of Christian families in Kenya find it difficult to harmoniously live together e. Explain how the church strengthens family relationships today TOPIC THREE. TEACHINGS FROM SELECTED OLD TESTAMENT PROPHETS INTRODUCTION This chapter introduces one to the work of prophets in the Old Testament. In Form One, some prophets were taught e.g. Moses, Elijah, Nathan and Samuel. Traditional African prophets were also taught. In Form Three, we compare true and false prophets and the Traditional African prophets. Learning outcomes. By the end of the topic, you should be able to: a. Define a prophet, and prophecy b. Identify categories of prophets c. Explain the importance of prophets in Israel. d. Describe the characteristics of prophets. e. Explain how prophetic messages were written. f. Compare the relationship between prophesies in the Old Testament and the New Testament LESSON ONE: PROPHETS Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: - ----- 297 # 1. Give a correct definition of a prophet, and prophecy 2. List prophets in categories a. Definitions of a prophet, and prophecy The word prophet comes from a Hebrew word Rabii meaning one who is called or one who announces Gods message. A prophet is also referred to as a seer. A prophet is a person sent by God to teach and give people messages about things to come in future from God. Prophets received divine messages from God and communicated them to the people. A prophet is therefore a person who foretells events as revealed to him or her by God. Examples of prophets include Samuel, Elijah, Jeremiah and prophetesses (female prophet) Deborah, and Huidah. Prophecy is a statement, a message of something that is going to happen in the future. The action of giving future messages is called prophecy. b. Categories of prophets There were many categories of prophets. These were: a) Major Prophets. These were Prophets whose messages covered a long period of time. Their messages were long and detailed. For example Prophet Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel. b) Minor prophets. There are 12 books of the Minor Prophets examples They are called minor because their messages are short, brief and do not contain detailed information. The Minor Prophets are Amos, and Hosea, Joel, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi. ----- 298 # c) Canonical prophets the term canon means law. Canonical prophets are law prophets. The individual utterances of these prophets are laws. Both minor and major prophets are canonical prophets, d) The early prophets are Moses, Nathan Elijah, and Elisha. These prophets belonged to guilds schools. Their prophecies are not recorded under their names. Their prophecies are written in books, which do not bear their names. e) Cultic prophets like Hannah (N.T.) served in the places of worship. They assisted the priest officiating worship f) Professional / court prophets like Samuel, Micah, and Gad lived together in the temple and in groups. They earned their living through their work. They did not work elsewhere g) False prophets are pretenders to speak in the name of Yahweh but God did not call them. They spoke lies in accordance with the messages people wanted to hear. c. Characteristics of true prophets There were two (2) major categories of prophets in the Old Testament, (1) true prophets and (2) false prophets. True prophets are those whose prophecies occurred and were fulfilled. Prophesies of false prophets did not occur. True prophets distinguished themselves from false prophets and ordinary people. They experienced God dramatically when He called them and in their ministry. They were Gods spokesmen and women. They responded in faith to their call. ----- 299 # God gave them specific tasks in their commission and Gods assurance and support in their ministry. They urged people to repent and turn back to God. In their messages, they taught that God demands sincere worship and not elaborate rituals. They understood God and taught about God righteousness, goodness, mercifulness, and loving care. They condemned evil in the society and proclaimed Gods judgment and punishment to those who failed to keep the covenant. They spoke with authority and acted with courage. They upheld God as a universal God for all nations. They talked of a remnant that shall remain after punishment or those that have continued to worship God sincerely. Their utterances were true because they were fulfilled They spent a lot of their time in prayers. They prayed regularly. At such times they withdrew from people in order to have a quiet time to seek God. All the true prophets received opposition from their audiences and they were ready to suffer for telling Gods word. d. The Characteristics of false prophets. Some of the prophecy of false prophets contradicted prophesies of the true prophets. False prophets followed their own imaginations, and gave false hopes. They told people what they wanted to hear. They had no personal knowledge of God. Hence, their prophecies were not in line with the divine revelations. ----- 300 # They used evil forces such as magic, and divinations to call upon the spirits of the dead. They were paid for prophesy and benefits materially from their clients. They served Baal and were mainly immoral. They committed crime. Review questions How can we know true and false prophets today? LESSON TWO: IMPORTANCE OF PROPHETS IN ISRAEL Introduction Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should: 1. Describe the work of prophets in Israel 2. Explain how God communicated with prophets and Israelites 3. Analyse the content of the Prophetic messages 1. Work of prophets in Israel Prophets kept Israelites in communication with God. They communicated Gods will to the people of Israel. They foretold Gods judgments and punishment for sinners. They condemned the behaviour of the rich towards the poor. Through their messages, people reformed their lives since they condemned all forms of social evils and ritual sins. They contributed to the writing of their messages leading to the compilation of the Bible. Prophets guided and gave people hope. They taught people the laws of God. They warned people of dangers to come. They condemned idolatry and stressed the worship of one true God, Yahweh. They anointed the Kings in Israel. Kings consulted the prophets before any major undertaking such as war among others. ----- 301 # They acted as conscience of kings. They advised them and challenged Kings when they went wrong. 2. Gods communication with prophets and Israelites God communicated to Prophets through visions, voices that were audible and clear, events, prayers, dreams, signs, ordinary things, and words which came to their minds with great power. Writing messages of the prophets The canonical prophets as mentioned earlier had their works and prophecies recorded under their names. Canonical prophets are referred to as writing prophets. Its possible that some prophets wrote down their own prophecies. They wrote what God spoke to them as He dictated. An example is Jeremiah who wrote what he was told Get a scroll and write on it everything that I have told you about Israel, Judah and all nations. (Jeremiah 36:2, Isaiah 30:8). Two, the prophets message were probably written by other people. These were their assistant, secretary, scribe, and disciples or followers as the prophet prophesied. Thirdly some of the prophetic messages could have been preserved as oral traditions and later written as books. A good example is 2 Kings. e. Content of the Prophetic messages Prophetic messages contained lessons from God to Israel. For example, the: i. Prophetic sayings were and still are oracles or poetic passages spoken by God himself through prophets. The prophecies were addressed to different nations. They carried specific teachings to the ----- 302 # people, for example predicting future occurrences ii. Narratives in the first person give an account of the prophets testimony. They spoke of their experiences with God, and responses to the call of God. They tell us about prophets impelling compulsion to speak Gods word. The narratives are written in the first person. They have a format The Lord said to me The year that King Uzziah died, I was the Lord iii. Narratives in the third 3rd person have messages written by a third party, i.e. not the prophet but another person. For example, Isaiah said to them, Thus you shall say to your master, thus says the Lord: Do not be afraid of the words. (Isaiah 37:6). The message recounts the prophets personal life, and political background. LESSON THREE: PROPHESIES IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, NEW TESTAMENT AND AFRICAN TRADITIONAL SOCIETY Introduction The Israelites and the African traditional societies as well as other world communities had prophets who foretold the future. Among the Israelites, there were prophets chosen by God and false prophets who told messages which communities wanted to hear. Among the African traditional communities, there were wise men and women who prophesied about the future. In this lesson, we shall compare these prophecies and learn what was similar and different about these them. The Old Testament prophecies are compared with those from the African traditional society and ----- 303 # the New Testament Learning outcomes. After studying this lesson, you should be able to: a. State relationships between Prophesies in the Old Testament New Testament and the African Traditional Society b. Discuss the similarities between prophets in the African traditional society and the Old Testament c. Identify differences between prophets in the African traditional society and the Old Testament a. Relationships between Prophesies Several Old Testament (O.T.) prophecies were and are fulfilled in both the old and New Testament (N.T) in the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. The Law of Moses is used in both the Old Testament and the New Testament. However Jesus gave the law a deeper meaning. The teachings and prophecies of the prophets provided the foundation for the message in the New Testament. The prophecies of Prophet Nathan to King David that God would raise up an offspring from the lineage of David was fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the expected messiah. Jesus disciples in the New Testament referred a lot to messages in the Old Testament. The teachings of Jesus in the New Testament are based in the Old Testament prophecies. They are therefore similar to each other because New Testament is a continuation of the Old Testament. The New Testament is the new covenant spoken of by Prophet Jeremiah and other Prophets like Isaiah, Micah, and Nathan. Their prophecies about Messiah are fulfilled in the New Testament. ----- 304 # b. Similarities between prophets in the African traditional society and the Old Testament. In both traditions, prophets: Were endowed with divine powers and they dealt with religious matters. Acted as intermediaries between God and people Warned people of impending dangers and disasters due to disobedience Had supernatural experiences Encouraged morality and discouraged evil ways In some cases, could heal Withstood oppression and opposition by the political rulers Encouraged people to fight injustices in society Foretold future disasters such as drought and wars. They explained why they were going to occur. Were consulted when things were not well in the society. Received revelations through dreams, visions and thoughts Were gender sensitive male prophets and female prophetesses. c. Differences (O.T.) between prophets in the African traditional society and the Old Testament. The Old Testament prophets had a personal relationship with God. They communicated Gods messages to Israelites. The prophets in the African traditional society communicated and received messages from the ancestor spirits Old Testament prophets were Gods mouthpieces. They began their prophesy with thus saith the lord. While the prophets in the African traditional society predicted what would happen to individuals, and communities. ----- 305 # The authority of prophets in the Old Testament came from God while the authority of prophets in the African traditional society came from their ancestors spirits. In the Old Testament prophets were called directly by God while in some African traditional communities the prophetic office was hereditary. The African traditional prophets dealt with family and local community issues while Old Testament prophets dealt with national issues, and crises. African traditional prophets were diviners while Old Testament prophets consulted God. d. Relevance of Old Testament prophets to Christians today Christian should be ready to be messengers of God. The call to be a Christian has a prophetic role. Some Christians are called to the office of a prophet and should prophecy for the glory of God and for the common good of the people. As Gods spokes person one should always stand for the truth. Christian should proclaim Gods will even if the message is not pleasant to the people. Once appointed as a prophet, one should pass the messages to who ever they are sent to without fear or favour. Gods messengers should always condemn the social political economic evils in the society. As Gods messengers Christians should live exemplary lives. They should stand for what they preach and should expect persecutions because of their works as Gods messengers. They should be ready to suffer for the sake of the gospel. ----- 306 # Christians should pray to God to give them guidance, wisdom, and inspiration to be able to handle hardships in their lives. They should provide hope for the people in times of suffering. Christians should realize that God calls both men and women to His service. They should be ready to obey Gods prophetic call and not run away e.g. Jonah. They should be concerned and take care of the welfare of the poor community members. Revision questions 1. Define the terms prophet and prophecy 2. List five categories of true prophets 3. State the difference between true and false prophets 4. In what ways were Gods prophets called? 5. Outline the similarities and differences between the old testament prophets and the traditional African ones. 6. What is the relevance of prophets to Christians today? TOPIC FOUR: PROPHET AMOS Introduction Amos is one of the prophets God sent to Israel to warn the people because of their evil life. Politically, the Nation of Israel had become rich. There grew classer, the rich and the poor. The rich started oppressing the poor. Socially, there was still the rich poor gap. The rich exploited the poor. Merchants sold bad food, expensive and used false measurer. Religiously, the Israelites had turned away from God and were worshiping false gods. Syncretism was ----- 307 # practiced. Priests were paid and Gods prophets were rejected. It is in this situation that Amos was called. He is called through visions. Amos is one of the canonical or writing prophets. The book of Amos is a temptation of oracles spoken by the prophet on different occasions. Note that after the death of King Solomon, the kingdom of Israel was split into two and rules by Rehoboam and Jeroboam. The northern Kingdom; called Judah was ruled by Rehoboam and was inhabited by two tribes. The southern kingdom called Israel was ruled by Jeroboam and was inhabited by 10 tribes. Amos came from Judah and prophesied in Israel. Topic Learning Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: a) Analyse Prophet Amos work in Israel b) Describe the call of Amos c) Explain the teaching of Amos d) Relate relevance of Amos teaching to Christianity today LESSON ONE: Prophet Amos work in Israel Read Amos 1:1 Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should: 1. Describe the call of Amos 2. Describe the socio, political and economic situation in Israel during the time of Prophet Amos 3. Explain religious situation in Israel 1. The call of Amos (AMOS 1:1,3:8,7:10 15) Prophet Amos was born in a village called Tekoa in Judah, the southern kingdom. Before his call, Amos was a shepherd and a dresser of sycamore trees. He was not a professional prophet. But God called him ----- 308 # to be a prophet. He received his call in form of a vision around 758 BC. Amos responded to Gods call with obedience. He felt a deep compulsion to prophesy (Amos 3:8). God directed him to give his message to the people of Israel, the northern kingdom (Amos 7:15). He was asked to speak the will of Yahweh. He was also to fore tell punishment if Israelites did not repent their sins. His message was opposed, and challenged by Amaziah the priest of Bethel. 3. Religion. Israelites worshipped Yahweh and other gods. Idolatry was also present. This form of worship is called Syncretism . There was religious hypocrisy. Like today, there was an emphasis on external observances of religious practices and less concern for internal observances. The priests were paid for religious work. Those who couldnt pay did not have religious ceremonies. They were offered at the expense of the poor. The prophets of God were rejected. 4. Social economic political situation. When Amos prophesied, King Jeroboam ruled Israel, the northern kingdom while King Uzziah ruled Judah. Amos was sent to prophesy to the people of Israel in the northern kingdom. He concentrated his work mainly in Bethel and Samaria the capital city of Israel and the main centres of worship. When Amos started his prophesy, there was peace and prosper in Israel and Judah. Both kingdoms were wealthy. However, the wealth did not reach the poor. This was because the wealth and power were in ----- 309 # the hands of the king, his family, his officials, and wealthy merchants. As a result, Israel citizens were divided into two classes; the rich and the poor. Unfortunately, the rich people owned big luxurious houses. They drunk wine, and used the most expensive perfumes. They acquired their wealth at the expense of the poor. They oppressed and exploited the poor. The merchants of trade for example, were dishonest in their trade businesses. They sold bad wheat to unsuspecting customers and overcharged customers by measuring with false scales. Because of the inflated prices, the poor borrowed money from the rich at high interest rates to buy basic things like food. Hence, there was massive bribery and corruption in society and law courts. As a result the poor lacked basic necessities or needs like food, shelter, and clothing. It was at this time when God sent Amos to give prophesy to Israel. SAQ. How did the rich oppress the poor in Israel? LESSON TWO: VISIONS OF AMOS Read AMOS 7: 1 9, 8:1 3. 9:1 4) Vision is a picture we have in our mind. It is a future to come. Amos was shown many visions by God. Lesson outcomes. After reading these verses in Amos you should be able to: - 1. Analyse all the visions and 2. State the message of each vision 3. Summaries things that God condemned through Amos 1. The vision of the locusts (Amos 7:1 3 ) ----- 310 # Amos saw a swarm of locusts being sent by God to destroy all plants and food crops in the land. The locusts were, a sign of disaster, which God was going to send to Israel as a punishment for their disobedience. Amos cried to God to forgive the people. God heard and changed his mind. 2. The vision of a great fire (Amos 7:4 6) Amos saw a vision of a supernatural fire that burnt up the land. He asked God to forgive the people and God listened. The punishment was stopped. 3. The vision of a crooked wall/ the plumb line (Amos 7:7 9) Amos saw the Lord standing beside the wall checked it with a plumb line. The wall represented the Israelites. They stopped observing the laws of their covenant with God. God found Israelites disobeying the covenant. God promised to destroy holy places of Israel.. 4. The vision of a basket of ripe fruits (Amos 8:1 3) In this vision, Amos saw a basket of ripe fruits. Fruits are harvested at the end of the summer. This meant that Israel was ripe for punishment for her refusal to turn to God. Amos did not pray for forgiveness. God would no longer withhold His judgment. Time for repentance was over. 5. The vision of the destruction of the altar. Read Amos 9:1 4. Amos saw the Lord standing by the altar. The Lord ordered the destruction of the temple. The shrines of Dan and Bethel were destroyed because they were the centres of idolatry. No one would escape punishment no matter where they hide. Summary of issues that God pointed out to Israel through Prophet Amos ----- 311 # a. Lack of social justice There was lack of social justice and responsibility by the king of Israel. Social justice means dealing with other people fairly. It implies showing concern for the needs of others. b. Lack of responsibility. This refers to the rulers and people of Israel being accountable for their actions. In modern life, it is doing ones duty and fulfilling ones obligation to God and others. c. Practice of hypocritical religion in Israel. The Israelites were insincere in their worship. They made empty sacrifices. They worshipped idols as well as God. They profaned the name of God (Yahweh). They made idols of Baal and offered sacrifices to them. They worshipped other gods. This is syncretism and God does not allow worship of any other God but himself. d. Gods judgment against Israel and other nations. God promised to destroy Israel and leave a remnant of them for restoration. e. Oppressions of the poor by the rich God condemned King Jeroboam rule of Israel because of the oppression of the poor, government corruption and bribery of kings officials. These officials sold the righteous for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals (shoes) i.e. its like practising slavery. The rich trampled on the poor, despised them and placed no value on the poor. The poor gave their garments as security for loan. This was contrary to Gods commandments. The garment was supposed to be returned back to the owner before sunset. The ----- 312 # Samaritan women were fat like the well fed cows of Bashan led luxurious lives and were very unkind to the poor. The rich took an excessive share of the harvest from the farmers. Rulers loved luxury and were arrogant. They loved material things and showed pride in material possessions. They used expensive perfumes. f. Corruption and bribery. The judges were corrupt. They accepted bribes. There was a conspiracy between the rich and the judges against the poor g. Pride in materials possessions The capital city of Israel was Samaria. It was built on a mountain called Bethel, which was also a place of worship. There was prosperity in the land. The Israelites prided themselves in their riches and materials possessions. Amos told them God would destroy their wealth. h. Dishonesty. This is telling lies, cheating or using unjust means to get certain things. The wealthy merchants waited impatiently for the end of the holy days so that they could engage in lucrative businesses. They cheated the poor by using false scales. They sold bad wheat to the poor. They mixed good and bad grains and sold them to unsuspecting people. i. Sexual immorality Sexual immorality was prevalent or common in Israel. For example a father and son would have sex with the same girl. There was temple (cultic) prostitution. There was dishonesty; sexual immorality. This sexual behaviour made the temple unholy. j. Drunkenness ----- 313 # They Israelites spent time drinking when the poor lacked the basic needs. They engaged in excessive drinking of wine. They even forced the Nazarites to drink wine. They accepted drunkenness. k. Profaning the name of the God Israelites did not respect the name of God. They committed sin. They forced Nazirites to drink wine; forcing it down their throats yet they knew that Nazirites were people set aside and chosen by God to serve God. This act showed contempt of Gods commands. Nazirites were not supposed to drink wine or cut their hair. Israelites did this to show their contempt of the Lord, l. Hypocritical Religion and Idolatry in Israel Hypocrisy is pretending to be something different from the person one is. It is also saying one thing, and doing another thing. For example, Israelites did a lot of religious rites according to the laws of Moses and yet majority of them were unjust, corrupt and oppressed the poor. They observed the external religious activities while their hearts were corrupt and insincere. Amos condemned Israelites for this hypocrisy, characterized by insincere worship, and mixture of religious beliefs leading to diverse practices of religion i.e. syncretism. This is a combination or mixture of Israelites monotheism (Yahwehism) and worship of idols and other gods especially Baal, the gods of their neighbours. m. Empty sacrifices The Israelites made elaborative offerings and sacrifices. Yet God was interested only in sincere worship ----- 314 # and free will offerings and not mere sacrifices, and tithes. Take away from me the noise of your songs (Amos 5:21 23). LESSON THREE. GODS JUDGMENT AGAINST ISRAEL AND OTHER NATIONS Read Amos chapter 1 and 2 Learning outcomes. After studying this lesson, you should be able to: a. State the sins committed by Israel and other nations b. Identify how God punished Israel and other nations i) Israel. She committed several crimes, which were condemned by Prophet Amos. Read lesson two again before you go on and list down crimes that were pointed out by Amos. Okay, you have seen that Israel committed crimes of injustice, disobedience to God, breaking their covenant with God, idolatry, hypocrisy among other sins mentioned above. Israel was punished for these crimes. Punishments were severe. Israelites would be exiled forcibly and painfully. Earthquakes, famines, fires, oppression from foreign kings, epidemics and divine silence, would destroy their kingdom and holy places. ii) Syria. Its capital was Damascus. Syria committed war crimes. The soldiers were excessively cruel in times of war. They murdered their prisoners brutally. For this cruelty, their punishment was to be severe. Their palaces would be destroyed by fire and the people would be exiled in Kir. iii) Gaza and philistines. Their crime was capturing other people and selling them into slavery. For this ----- 315 # sin, Gods punishment was destruction of their city by divine fire. It would burn down the wall of Gaza city and destroy it. God would have no more association with them. iv) Tyre. Their Crime was violation of a treaty of friendship they had made. They broke it by capturing a whole nation into exile in the land of Edom. The punishment was God would send fire to destroy city of Tyre and its fortress (Amos 1:9-10). v. Edom. Her people were descendants of Esau. Yet Edom was ruthless to the Israelite to whom they were closely related. For this crime of ruthlessness, the punishment was God would destroy them by fire vi) Ammon committed crime of brutal killings. The people of Ammon attacked and killed their neighbours. They ripped open pregnant woman in Gilead (vs. 13). Gods punishment was destruction of the fortress and wall of the city of Rabbah by fire. Their king and his officers will go into exile: (vs. 15). vii) Moab. The people of Moab; their crime was mishandling the body of the king of Edom. They burned his bones to ashes. Gods punishment was destruction of the city of Kerioth by divine fire. The people, their rulers and leaders would be killed in battle. viii) Judah. Their crimes were (1) failure to obey Gods commands and (2) despising gods teaching. ix) Samaria, Egypt and Ashdod. Their crime was dishonesty and filling their mansions with things taken ----- 316 # by crime and violence (Amos 3:10). Women of Samaria committed the crime of drunkenness, oppressing the weak and poor. The punishment for all these countries is destruction of their land, mansions and army. But a remnant will not go to captivity, and shall not be destroyed. Amos said the remnants are like 2 legs, or a piece of an ear of a sheep rescued from the mouth of a lion (Amos 3:12) x) Amaziah the priest of Bethel. He strongly opposed Amos and told him to go back and prophesy in Judah. Amos told Amaziah God sent him to Israel. His punishment for opposing Gods messenger was.. Amaziahs wife would be a harlot, his children will die in the war, his land will be given to others, and Amaziah will die in a foreign land (Amos 7: 14-17). Lessons to learn from Gods judgment of Israel and other nations The Assyrians attacked Israel, occupied their land and exiled others. God is (a) universal, (b) God hates sin (c) God is concerned about the welfare of his people (d) God is merciful and spares a remnant xi. Israels election (Amos 2:9 11, 3:1 2, 9:7 Election: is an act of choosing a person or group of people for a purpose or action. Israels election refers to Gods choice of the Israelites out of the entire human kind to be his people. God chose them to serve him, be a Holy nation and to be the light of the world. God made a covenant with the Israelites. In the covenant they agreed to live a holy life. In return, God looked after them. He led them out of Egypt to ----- 317 # the wilderness and finally to Canaan. God chose His prophets from the Israelites and raised Nazirites. Despite Gods favour, the Israelites rebelled and sinned against God. And although Israelites were reminded that God cared for other nations equally and are to be punished if they disobeyed God; and that they were neither superior, nor better than other nations, they disobeyed God several times. xii. The day of the lord Amos taught that the day of the lord would be a day of severe judgment for sins. . It is not a time of happiness, joy or victory. It is a day of darkness, terror, disaster, gloom, wailing, flooding, mourning, defeat, punishment, famine for food and Gods word. xiii. The Remnant and Restoration. Remnant means a small number of survivors. These are the Israelites who will remain after the entire nation is punished. They are also those who returned to Jerusalem after the exile. Restoration is an act of reinstating things / persons to their former state or position. Amos informed the Israelites that God was still looking after them, and waiting for their repentance. The nation of Israel would not be destroyed completely. God would preserve the few righteous ones. He would raise the fallen dynasty of David. People would be restored back to their land to rebuild their cities. There was to be a great harvest and grapes shall overflow. xiv. Duty of Christians. Christians are the selected people of God. As the chosen ones, they should one, ----- 318 # live holy lives and two, use their position to serve God and others. Three, Christians have a moral responsibility to spread Gods word, four, care for the needy and five, be the light of the world. xv. The Day of the lord. Read Amos 5:18-20, 6:3-5, 8:7-13. in the Old Testament, the day of the Lord is the day that Yahweh would make Israel victorious against other nations. On this day the Israelite believed that God would establish his rule over and with Israel. The day of the Lord was also believed to be the day when Israel would be prosperous, would have favour with God, and the just would triumph over the wicked. In the New Testament, the day of the lord is also the Day of Judgment (Parousia). It is the day of the second coming of Christ. On that day, everyone will be judged. Christians believe that it is the day that Christ will come for His bride (the church). Those who had obeyed the laws of God shall be received by Christ and given the reward of the eternal life. On that day, Gods kingdom shall be established and Christ will reign forever. xvi. Relevance of Amos teachings to Christians today. The messages of the prophecy of Amos are relevant to Christians today. This is because God is universal. He chose Israel but still punished her for her disobedience, and sins just as He punished other nations like Syria and Gaza. The message that God hates hypocrisy is very clear. Thus Christians should truthful and practice what ----- 319 # they preach. They must worship God in sincerity. Other messages are: Justice. Christians should be just / fair in dealing with others. Self Indulgence. Christians should not pursue luxury and self- indulgence when others lack the basic needs. Bribery. Christians should condemn bribery and corruption, and uphold justice. Punishment. Christians should bear in mind that God will punish every evil. Wealth. When Israel became wealthy, they departed from the covenant with God. Christians should share their wealth with the needy and acquire their wealth justly Hypocritical religion. Amos taught about hypocrisy in religion. This was for example offering empty sacrifices. Christians have to learn to be sincere, to be concerned about their internal well being and soul more than outward observances of religion. Drunkenness. Christians should not engage in activities that can divert their faith from God. If that happens, they should learn to be Repentant. Revision exercise 1. List the visions that Amos saw 2. Explain the evils that Amos condemned in his teachings 3. Give reasons why prophet Amos condemned idol worship in Israel 4. List evils in the society today that Amos would condemn TOPIC FIVE. PROPHET JEREMIAH Introduction. Israel had not taken heed to Amos prophecies. This was especially on idolatry. So, God sent another ----- 320 # prophet to continue with the same work. Jeremiah was therefore appointed as a prophet. Jeremiah is one of the Old Testament Major Prophets. He was called to a prophet at around 627 B.C. He was called as a young man, probably 20 years old. He prophesied in the southern kingdom- Judah, for a period of 40 years. His prophetic ministry took place before and during the exile of Judah. Learning Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: - a Describe the political, Social, and religious background of prophet Jeremiah. b Describe the personal life and call of Jeremiah. c Explain the evils condemned by Jeremiah. d Explain the contents of the temple sermon. e Highlight the relevance of Jeremiahs teaching on evils, false prophets and Christians today. LESSON ONE: THE CALL JEREMIAH Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: - i. Describe the situation of the people of Judah ii. Identify religious, political and socio classes of Judah iii. Describe the call of Jeremiah iv. Explain lessons that modern Christians can learn from the call of Jeremiah a. The Kingdom of Judah Social background The people of Judah were divided into three social classes. At the top were the (i) Aristocrats. These were the ruling class, which consisted of the king, his family, royal officials, princesses, priests, and professional prophets. This class of the rich oppressed the poor. ----- 321 # Below them was the class (ii) of technical professional such as stonecutters, carpenters, builders, masons, blacksmiths, masons, and others craftsmen (2 Kings 12:12). Below them was class (iii) made up of poor people such as slaves, widows, orphans, and foreigners. All these poor people were mistreated. In terms of ethics, there was moral degradation. They committed adultery, prostitution, murder, false witness, and corruption. Religions background. The Kings and people of Judah worshipped idols. They practiced human sacrifice, divination and magic, and listened to false prophecies. They abandoned their covenant with God and their way of life and practiced syncretism, which is worshipping God and other false gods like Baal. King Josiah tried to restore true worship by carrying out several reforms. Prophetess Huldah prophesied that Judah would be punished after Josiahs death since he humbled before Yahweh. Political Background. Prophet Jeremiah lived in the 7th century BC and prophesied when Judah was ruled by King Josiah, and later his sons Jehoiakim, and Zedekiah; and king Jehoiachin. Judah was conquered and ruled by Assyrians who were conquered by Egyptians who ruled Judah up to 605 BC. Egyptians; were conquered by Babylonians under King Nebuchadnezzar. This was according to the prophecies of Jeremiah. b. The Call of Jeremiah. Read Jer 1: 19. ----- 322 # Jeremiahs father was a priest called Hilkiah. He was born in the territory of Benjamin; at a place called Anathoth, He was well educated. Jeremiah was called to be a prophet in 627 B.C during the reign of King Josiah. He received his call in form of a dialogue with Yahweh. God told him that he had appointed him to be his messenger; even before he was formed in his mothers womb, God had selected him to be a prophet. Jeremiah said he was too young and did not know how to speak. Jeremiah was forewarned of the hostility he would encounter in his prophetic career. God told him that He would protect him and not to fear. God touched Jeremiahs mouth. This symbolized that God is the one who shall put words in his mouth. Jeremiah responded to Gods call in faith and obedience. He was given a message that God was going to bring judgment upon the Kingdom of Judah. God promised to make him a fortified city, an iron pillar and bronze wall for protection. He was commanded by God not to marry, neither have children and not to attend social gatherings, weddings, and funerals. His mission made him isolated and lonely. As a result, his own family and relatives rejected him and plotted to kill him. But he had few friends like Ebed- melech, Ahikam who helped him to get out of a pit. Jeremiah was persecuted by; the kings of Judah. Priests including priest Pashhur opposed him, and false prophets like Hannaniah. He prophesied that God shall punish wicked Kings, priests, and ordinary ----- 323 # people. He suffered spiritually and emotionally. At the fall of Jerusalem in 587 B.C, the army officers of Nebuchadnezzar released him from prison. He went to Egypt where he died at an old age and as a faithful servant of God. His life was symbolic to the people of Judah. During his call, Jeremiah saw two visions. Vision one was the vision of a branch of an almond tree. The tree seemed dead, bare, yet life was in it. This vision was telling Judah that although God seemed to be sleeping, He was watching over them if they obey Him. Vision two was a pot boiling in the north, and it is about to tip over this way (1:13). The boiling pot tilted away from the north signified that the destroyers of Judah would come from the north. The pot was ready to boil over and spill its contents. This meant that Judah was soon going to have trouble. Babylon would pour horrifying disasters on Judah. Lessons from the call of Jeremiah God has a purpose for each person and He can call anybody to do His work. He calls the unborn, the young, old, rich, and poor. God prepares people for His work, through specific experiences at family level, in school, and church. A person who is called to serve God should be ready to meet opposition. God protects His servants and promises to be with them. Jeremiah felt inadequate to speak. Christians should not let their human weakness hinder them from performing their tasks. Christians should respond to Gods call in obedience. ----- 324 # LESSON TWO. EVILS ADDRESSED BY JEREMIAH. Read Jeremiah 2, 3, 4, 5,7, 9, 10, 23, and 28. Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, 1. Name the evil practices that Jeremiah condemned 2. Explain why Jeremiah condemned these evil practices There were many evils in Judah and Israel. We have mentioned some of them. These were: necromancy, dishonesty, deception, false prophecy, human sacrifice, and idolatry i. Necromancy. Words related to necromancy are divinations, magic, sorcery, and playing tricks on peoples minds. Necromancy is the art of seeking hidden knowledge from the mysterious world of spirits: using magic, and divination, which is invoking the dead. Divination was condemned in the Hebrew language. Diviners, magicians, sooth sayers and fortunetellers used necromancy. Prophet Jeremiah condemned necromancy. Reasons why Jeremiah condemned necromancy Necromancy was a deception and therefore an evil practice. The diviners gave false information from their own imagination. This practice polluted the true worship of Yahweh and indicated Israelites lack of faith in the one true God. Two, by trusting in divination, and magic, the Israelites showed their lack of knowledge of the one true God. Three, by consulting the mediums, the Israelites disobeyed God (Jer 27:8-10). ii) Deception and Dishonesty Dishonesty is lack of moral integrity or moral uprightness. Deception is cheating, and telling lies ----- 325 # intentionally. It is also giving false and misleading information. The Israelites were dishonest because they worshiped God and at the same time committed social injustices against their brothers and sisters. Their repentance was insincere. There was treachery, and greed. They laid traps for each other. People pretended to be friendly and at the same time conspired to kill. Jeremiah challenged the Israelites people to circumcise their hearts which were deceitful. Their tongues were deadly arrows and they listened to false prophesies like that of Hannaniah Jeremiah condemned deception. This was because it led to syncretism, and hypocrisy in worship; and breaking down of the covenant way of life. Jeremiah warned the Israelites and asked them to repent iii. False prophesy by Hannaniah. Jer 28 During the reign of king Zedekiah, Hannaniah broke the yoke that Jeremiah was wearing. Hannaniah spoke in the name of Yahweh. He lied to the people as he spoke from his imagination and dreams. Jeremiah denounced Hannaniah. He predicted and prophesied the death of Hannaniah in the same year. And it came to pass. Jeremiah had also prophesied that the captivity of Judah should be long contrary to Hannaniah who said Judah will be exiled for 2 years. Reasons for condemning false prophets Prophets of Baal were still in existence. False prophets like Hannaniah had filled the people of Israel with unrealistic hopes of peace yet Judah was to be destroyed. Recall the characteristics of true and false ----- 326 # prophets. False prophets did not condemn sin. They prophesied for money and in the process misled people away from Yahweh. False prophets prophesied from their dreams, imaginations and not from God. They gave people false hopes. They intended to make themselves popular, with the King and the people. iv) Human sacrifice. The people offered human sacrifice to idols and oppressed each other. Human sacrifice is the act of killing human beings for a religious or spiritual purpose. The Israelites copied this activity from the Canaanites. Children were believed to be the best sacrifice since people believed they would get great favors from the deities. Some kings such as Ahaz and Manasseh sacrificed their sons to idols. Jeremiah condemned human sacrifice. Reasons for condemning human sacrifice Human sacrifice was an act of idolatry. It indicated infidelity of the Israelites to the one true God. It demonstrated Israels disrespect for the sacred gift of life. It showed their lack of knowledge of the true nature of Yahweh. Human sacrifice defiled the land for life is in the blood. Blood speaks hence the land was crying at this vengeance. God did not ask for human sacrifices. Human sacrifice was a sign of lack of love of God and love for one another. It is a demonstration of disregard for human life. Only God has the right to take away life. In our country people kill each other every day especially on the road. Why do we do this? ----- 327 # v. Idolatry Idolatry is the worship of many gods. Idols are images made by people for worship. The Israelites practiced syncretism, which we said was the worship of Yahweh and idols. The people of Israel were worshipping Baal the Queen of heaven, sun, moon, stars, and also Yahweh (Jer 8:2). Idols were placed even in Yahwehs sacred places. The temple was defiled by idols. This the temple unclean. Jeremiah condemned it. He told the people of Israel that {they have forsaken the fountain of living waters (GOD) and hewn out for themselves broken cisterns (IDOLs) that can hold no water (Jer 2: 11-13). Why did Jeremiah condemn idolatry? Read Jer 2: 20, 2:1- 3, 5: 7- 8. Idolatry is like adultery and prostitution. It defiled people and was a sign of lack of faith in Yahweh. It defiled the land. Idolatry led to divine judgment and punishment. People of Judah abandoned Yahweh the Husband and chased lovers the idols and deities The Israelites (Northern kingdom) had been punished before and yet Judah did not learn from them. By worshipping idols Judah broke the covenant and their relationship with God. And unless the people of Judah repented, they would be punished; as there is only one true living God to be worshipped and obeyed. Is there idolatry among Christians todays vi. Other evils condemned by Jeremiah People of Judah trusted that the temple was secure, holy and cannot be destroyed. Jeremiah denounced ----- 328 # this false belief about the temple. He warned them that God would destroy the temple because of the many evils committed in it. The temple of God had become a den of robbers and human sacrifices. People of Judah committed other evils such as hypocrisy (Jer 7; 9-10); social injustice (adultery, murder), stubbornness, and rebellion. vi. The temple Temple is a place of worship. The temple of Israelites was in Jerusalem. It signified the presence of God among his people. The Israelites believed God could never destroy or allow destruction of the temple. Jeremiah stood at the gates of the temple court during Jehuiakims reign, and Judah that God would destroy the temple and send them to exile. He urged them to repent and turn back to God. King Josiah heard the message of Jeremiah and he reformed religious practices in Judah. vii. Religions reforms carried out by King Josiah This topic is not clearly spelt out in the syllabus. It is based on the book of Deuteronomy. The scroll was discovered in the temple during repairs. Josiah ordered the repair of the temple of God. He led a national ceremony to review the covenant. He destroyed idols and altars associated with the worship of foreign deities throughout Judah. He eliminated all the priests associated with the worship of false deities. He celebrated Passover in Jerusalem. The successors of King Josiah did not follow his example. They became corrupt. They ----- 329 # persecuted the prophets of God. They listened to false prophets. They promoted idolatry and child sacrifice. viii. The Relevance of Jeremiahs teachings to Christians today. Christians should denounce hypocrisy in the society today. They should not result to witchcraft, divination and sorcery. They should be upright, and worship God in sincerity. They are to proclaim divine judgment upon those who refuse to obey Gods will, just like Jeremiah declared Gods judgment upon Judah due to the sins of the people. Like Jeremiah, Christians should speak out against modern idols like love of money, power, obsession with sports, sex, and drugs among other evils. Christians should condemn destruction of human life, violence; murder, abortion, parents killing their own children, genocide and exploitation of the poor. Christians should be aware of the existence of false teachings and prophecies. They should pray for Gods guidance and wisdom to be able to distinguish truth from false teaching. Christians have a responsibility to correct one another and call on sinners to repent. Christians are to be trustworthy, upright, and merciful to the poor and condemn dishonesty. They should practice justice in their relationship with others; preach against disobedience, stubbornness and pray to God to help them overcome these vices. Read these review questions and answer before reading answers> 1. Why was Jeremiah reluctant to accept the call? 2. Which evils / sins did Jeremiah Condemn?. ----- 330 # 3. Give examples of idol worship in Kenya. 4. Describe Jeremiahs temple sermon SAQ answer. 1. Jeremiah felt inadequate because he was too young to work for God. He argued that he did not know how to speak. He was afraid. He knew he would face stiff opposition from the people of Judah. The message of Gods judgments is difficult to deliver. 2. Read text again and look for evils and sins that Jeremiah condemned. 3. Examples of idol worship in Kenya are many. Some people including Christians practice witchcraft, sorcery, personality cults and hero worship of religions and political leaders. Other people, worship money, materialism, media, and sports obsession with power / status Sexual immorality devil worship 4. Jeremiahs temple sermon. Read text again. LESSON THREE. JEREMIAHS TEACHINGS ON JUDGMENT AND PUNISHMENT Read Jeremiah 5:12-18, 6;1-30, 7:30, 8:1-17, 10: 17-25, 15;1-9, 17:1-13, 25: 1-38 Learning Outcomes. By the end of this topic, you should be able to: - a Summarize in two paragraphs Jeremiah key teachings. b Explain the significance of symbolic acts related to judgement and punishment. c Describe suffering and lamentations of Jeremiah d Explain the teachings of Jeremiah on the new covenant. a. Jeremiah teachings. Sin was internalise in the hearts of the people of Judah. God punished them. God punishes people because of their unfaithfulness. Punishment is a penalty, for an offence or a crime ----- 331 # committed. But in punishing people, God is a just judge. He does not punish people without a reason irrespective of their status. God judges people by looking into their hearts. Divine judgment is for a group. For example, the people of Judah were punished as a group. However God searches each persons heart and judges accordingly. God executes His judgment by means of political and historical events. Divine punishments are in forms of natural disasters like drought, famine, and epidemics. Gods punishment is unavoidable, and inescapable. Judah took the best option by surrendering to the Babylonians. The purpose for Gods judgement is to correct the sinner. God gave his people a chance to repent before he punished them. Gods judgment is universal. It is not limited to one nation. God punished the neighbours of Judah who at that time were Egypt, Moab, Ammon, and Babylon. Gods punishment is severe compared to that of venomous snakes that bite the people of Judah. Gods judgement is not necessarily a punishment from God for ones sins. It is symbolic. The sufferings of Jeremiah were symbolic of the life of the people of Judah. What can we learn about Gods punishments? Are modern disasters such as cyclones, floods, earthquakes, landslides, epidemics, bomb blasts, civil wars, forest fires, rebellions in schools a sign of Gods judgment and punishment? What do you think? ----- 332 # b. Symbolic acts related to judgement and punishment People use several methods to convey messages to each other. We use songs, advertisements, dramas, and stories by the fireside, in novels, the Internet, and magazines to communicate messages about children, adults, society, political leaders, poverty and many others. The prophets used: (1). Oracles; Thus says the Lord; (2) Allegories (3) Parables (4) Songs (5) Symbolic Visions (6) Symbolic actions and (7) dramatized messages Symbolic acts of Jeremiah i The linen waist cloth (Jer.13) ii Jeremiahs personal life (Jer.16) iii Jeremiahs visit to a potter (Jer.18) iv The broken earthen flask (Jer.19) v The symbolic vision of 2 baskets of figs (Jer.24) vi The wearing of the yoke i. The Linen Waist Cloth. Read Jer.13 Jeremiah was instructed by God to buy a linen waistcloth and wear it around his waist without dipping it in water. He was told to hide the cloth in a hole near river Euphrates. Afterwards he was told to take the cloth. He found it spoilt for wearing. Significance. The liner material was for priestly garments in Israel. It symbolized Israels holiness. The unwashed cloth represented Judahs sinful pride. Israel used to cling close to God but now Israel / Judah were spoilt, rebellious, arrogant and pursued foreign gods. God was going to destroy them if they did ----- 333 # not repent. The spoilt linen waistcloth was a symbol for future Gods action. ii. Jeremiahs personal Life. Read Jer 16. His life was a symbolic act. He was told not to marry, have children, and nor attend funerals, social gatherings, feasts and wedding parties. Significance. The personal life of Jeremiah was one of suffering. This signified the suffering that the people of Judah would be subjected to. Judah was punished because of their wickedness and rebellion. Jeremiahs loneliness signified the perishing of families through the sword, famine and disease. It would be a time of terror for the families of Judah. Their normal social life of feasting, merry making would come to an end. There would be no weddings and no one to bury the dead. Hence Jeremiah was forbidden from mourning for the dead. iii. Jeremiahs at the potters house (Jer.18) Jeremiah was told to go to a potters house. He found the potter making a clay vessel. Whenever a piece of pottery turned out imperfect, he would take the clay and make it into something else (18: 4). The potter made a better pot, more perfect vessel than the spoilt one. Significance. God is the potter. People of Judah are the clay. As the potter destroyed to vessel, God intended to destroy Judah because of their wickedness and mould those who repented into better people. God was going to shape them into faithful people. Gods judgement was to be a corrective punishment. ----- 334 # iv. The broken clay Jar. Read Jer.19. God told Jeremiah to buy a clay flask He then took some elders and priests to the valley of Valley of Hinnon. He delivered a sermon condemning the people of Judah for their idolatry and other evils. Jeremiah then broke the clay jar in their presence and announced to them that Yahweh would destroy Jerusalem and Judah as Jeremiah had destroyed the jar. Significance. The kings, priests and prophets of Judah would be shattered like the clay flask because of their sins. Sine, they brutally sacrificed their children; they are to suffer horrifying experiences at the hand of their enemies. They shall suffer starvation and turn into cannibals; eating their own children and neighbours (v.9). Broken pieces of a clay pot cannot be moulded. No one was to escape judgment. However there is hope after punishment. v. Two Baskets of Figs (Jer.24). Jeremiah received the visions, after the deportation and exile of leading citizens of Judah and Israel to Babylon. Two baskets of figs were placed in front of the temple. One basket had very good figs, which had ripened. The other basket had bad figs unfit for human consumption. Significance. The basket of good figs signified the first exile. God would renew their hearts; use them to fulfil his promises to the Israelites. He would recreate them to a new people. The basket of the bad figs ----- 335 # represented people living in Jerusalem and Egypt. Since they were not exiled they had a self-righteous attitude. They thought that God spared them because they were truthful but it was not so. They shall also be destroyed through famine, and diseases. This vision signifies hope and restoration of the Israelites. vi. Jeremiah Wears an Ox Yoke. Read Jer. 27. When Zedekiah son of Josiah became the ruler of Judah, Jeremiah was instructed by God to make for himself a yoke out of leather straps and wooden crossbars and to wear it around his neck (27: 2). Jeremiah moved around in the yoke for quite sometime in public. He was also given a message for ambassadors of kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon, who were coming to see King Zedekiah in Jerusalem. They were to give Gods message to their kings. The message was to submit to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia; his son, and his grandson. Any nation that accepted this message shall not suffer; but if any nation ..will no submit to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia rule, God will punish that nation by war, starvation and disease Read Jer 27:6-8. The message for king Zedekiah was to surrender to the Babylonian rule and live, if he resists he would perish. The message for priests and people of Judah was not to be misled by the false prophets. The temple would be destroyed. Its treasures looted by the Babylonians. ----- 336 # Significance. The yoke represented the Babylonians rule. Nebuchadnezzar was used by God to bring judgment to all nations. Yahweh is a universal God and his judgment is universal. Sinners are punished regardless of their origin or nation. Those who repent are spared. Reflection questions Why did God inspire Jeremiah to use symbolic acts to convey his message? Answer Israelites were stubborn. Jeremiah acts were reminders to Judah to turn to God and stop idolatry and all the sins they were committing. They had drifted too far from God. False prophets were prophesying lies to them. The people of Judah were expected to meditate on these acts and understand Gods will for them and see the seriousness of the matter. This was also to imprint a lasting impression in their minds. SAQ. Which methods do pastors / priests use to communicate Gods message to Christians today? c. The sufferings and lamentations of Jeremiah Read Jer 11, 12, 17:14 18, 18:18- 23, 20: 1 6, 27, 37, and 38. Jeremiah sufferings were experiences that were painful; physically and emotionally. In suffering there is loss and grief. Lamentations are strong emotional expressions of pain and grief. Jeremiah suffered in the following ways I. Rejection by his own family and relatives. They plotted to kill him. This grieved Jeremiah. II. Anathoth planned to kill him but God protected Jeremiah. He pronounced Gods judgment upon them ----- 337 # III. Jeremiah suffered when he was accused falsely. He was accused of blasphemy after the temple sermon. He foretold the destruction of the temple, just like Jesus Christ in the New Testament did. IV. He was accused of treachery. That he was planning to leave Jerusalem and join the Babylonians. This led to Jeremiah being arrested and put in an underground jail. V. Jeremiah received death threats because of speaking for God. King Jehoiakim plotted to kill prophet Uriah. The prophet escaped to Egypt but he was followed to Egypt, arrested and killed by king Jehoiakim. The king had planned to accuse Jeremiah of Uriah death. Ahikam and other elders defended Jeremiah. (Jeremiah 26) VI. Jeremiah suffered loneliness and solitude. He felt emotional anguish and complained to God of his orders not to marry, neither attend social gathering and celebrations. This made Jeremiah lonely since he did not participate in the family life, political life, community activities and religious life. VII. Jeremiah experienced inner personal struggle due to his love for his own people He did not want to see them suffer but the people were stubborn Read Jer. 12:1 6, 15:10 21, and 27. VIII. Jeremiahs prophesying judgment caused him emotional pain and agony. His messages were mainly of severe judgment and punishment. IX. He went through a spiritual struggle in his relationship with God. He felt frustrations, doubts, self-pity ----- 338 # and despair. He wondered why God made him suffer. Why do the wicked prosper? He also wondered why God was taking too long to fulfil his prophecies. God assured him that Judah would be punished and promised to give Jeremiah victory against his enemies. X. Jeremiah suffered physical assault, imprisonment and an attempt on his life. Pashhur, the chief temple priest ordered beating and chaining of Jeremiah to the temple gate. Jeremiah prophesied that Pashshurs name would change to terror everywhere. XI. King Zedekiah released Jeremiah from the cell to his court. Jeremiah continued to prophecy and was thrown in a muddy cistern. Here he was rescued by Ebed- melech an Ethiopian Eunuch. The court officials had accused him of not being patriotic. Jeremiah remained in jail until the Babylonians overthrew Jerusalem. He did not change his prophecies. Read Jer. 10:1 6, 27, 37, and 38. Is there relevance of the sufferings and lamentations of Jeremiah to Christians today? From his suffering Christians learn to be ready to face opposition and rejection from their own family members and relatives for the sake of the gospel. Christians should be prepared to suffer persecution for the Lord. Christians should be ready to make sacrifices for the sake of God. Be ready to lead humble lives. Jeremiahs open confessions to God encourage Christians to be open to God. Christians should let God avenge for them just like Jeremiah prayed to God to revenge his enemies. Christians should not lose ----- 339 # hope in times of difficulty. Christians learn that tribulations strengthen their faith. Christians should learn to deal with negative emotions such as self pity, grief and trust God. Jeremiah was told by God to repent of his negative utterances. Christians should do the same as they are assured of divine security and protection against their persecutors. LESSON FOUR. JEREMIAHS TEACHING ABOUT THE NEW COVENANT A covenant is an agreement. Another word for covenant is testament. Jeremiah taught that there would be a new covenant between God and Israel. This new covenant would be different from the Old (Sinai) covenant. The new covenant would renew the broken relationship between God and his people. Lesson outcomes. After reading Jeremiahs teaching: a. State the terms of the new covenant. b. Identify the differences between the old covenant and the new covenant c. Summarize the similarities between the old covenant and the new covenant a. The New Covenant. In the new covenant, the law would be written in the hearts of the people unlike the old covenant where the law was written on stone tablets. Every individual would know God personally and not through prophets as it was during times of Jeremiah and previous one. Each person would be responsible for his/her sins. God would forgive sins and remember them no more. The new covenant would be established after Gods punishment of Israel and establishing a new Israel, a new ----- 340 # people of God. The new covenant would establish a new beginning. People would forget the first Exodus. The second Exodus would be deliverance and restoration from Babylon. God would initiate the new covenant as he did with the first. It would be a new covenant of peace, unity, prosperity, Joy and gladness. In the new covenant a righteous branch would be established. The new covenant would be everlasting. It would not be broken again. b. Differences between the old covenant and the new covenant Old Covenant New Covenant 1. Based on law Based on faith 2. Word written on stone tablets Word written in peoples hearts 3. God known personally by a few priests prophets and prophets Each to person to know God personally 4. Covenant broken when people sinned Everlasting covenant 5. Sins punished collectively Sins punished individually 6. 1st Exodus from Egypt 2nd Exodus from Babylon 7. Sealed by animal sacrifice Sealed by Jesus sacrifice (blood) What are the similarities between the old and the new covenant? Jesus fulfilled the new covenant. Jesus is the righteous branch from the lineage of David. In the last supper, before his death, Jesus said this cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood. Read Luke, 22:20. The death and resurrection of Jesus marks the new covenant. Jesus spoke of forgiveness of sins of humanity Jesus forgave peoples sins, for example, the sinful woman in Simons house (Luke7: 36 50). In the new ----- 341 # covenant the law would be written in peoples hearts. Jesus summarized the Mosaic Law into love God with all your heart, mind, strength and love your neighbour as you love yourself. Jesus established the kingdom of God as a new community of Gods people based on faith (the Christians). Jesus fulfilled the new covenant prophecies The teachings of Jeremiah new covenant of hope and restoration is fulfilled in Jesus Christ and the new testament church (Christians) Heb.8:7 12. LESSON FIVE. JEREMIAHS TEACHINGS ON HOPE AND RESTORATION Learning Outcomes (a) Explain the symbolic acts related to hope and restoration (b) Describe the fall of Jerusalem and the exile of the Israelites (c) Relate the relationship of the teachings of Jeremiah to the New Testament and Christian life today. A. Symbolic acts related to hope and restoration. The symbolic acts were one hope and restore. Hope is to expect something that is desired; while to restore is to bring back as nearly as possible the former or original state or condition. The symbolic acts were 5 in number. The first symbolic act was a vision of 2 baskets of figs. We have discussed it. Refer to the symbolic act related to judgment. The second symbolic act was Jeremiah buying a field. God instructed Jeremiah to buy a field from his cousin Hanamel of Anathoth. Jeremiah bought the field for 17 cents of silver. He then handed the title ----- 342 # deed and open copy to Baruch. Baruch was told to keep the title deed and the copy in an earthen vessel for preservation for a long time. Jeremiah prophesied the restoration of the exiles to their homeland. The significance of this symbolic act is the assurance of restoration of Judah and Israel after suffering. People will be restored to their homeland. After 70 years people of Judah would reconstruct their homes, cultivate their land, and own property (Jer 32; 1 -15). The third symbolic act was Jeremiah letter to the Jews in Babylonia. Jeremiah wrote to the people of Judah a letter of encouragement while in exile. They were to settle down, build houses, marry and have children, live in peace with the Babylonians. They were to pray for the welfare of their masters and to ignore false prophets who lied to them about the safety of Jerusalem and a quick return. God would restore them back to their land after 70 years of exile were over. The exiles were to trust in God and not give up (Jer.29). The four symbolic act was a wooden ox yoke. The yoke represented captivity and suffering of Jews in exile. It was also a sign of hope if the people of Judah were willing to submit to the Babylonian rule. God would restore them back to their land. Their yoke would be broken and they would be set free. The fifth symbolic act was the visit to the porters house b. The fall of Jerusalem and the exile of the Israelites (Jer.39) Jeremiahs prophecy came to pass. Jerusalem fell to the Babylonians in the ninth year of king Zedekiah ----- 343 # in 587BC. The Babylonians conquered Jerusalem and seized it. King Zedekiah fled but; he was captured by the Babylonians army. He witnessed the execution of his sons. His eyes were gauged out. He was then taken in chains to captivity in Babylon. Solomons temple was looted and destroyed. Villages, Jerusalem and the palace were destroyed and burnt down. The priests, court officials, army officials, people in the upper class, craftsmen were executed. City people were taken to Babylon as captives. The poor, aged and a few people were left behind and given vineyards to farm. Nebuchadnezzars army was brutal to the Israelites. Many were killed. A few like Ebed Melech were spared as prophesied by Jeremiah (he had rescued him from the well). Nebuchadnezzar ordered the release of Jeremiah. He was treated well Judah became a province of Babylon. Gedaliah was appointed governor of Judah. He stayed at Mizpah, the headquarters of Judah. Ishmael killed Gedaliah. Later Jeremiah was forced to go to Egypt by the Israelites. Jeremiah died in Egypt, an old man, and still faithful to his call. LESSON SIX.

By the end of the lesson you should be able to: - 1.Describe the teachings of Jeremiah in relation to Christian life today 2. Describe the teachings of Jeremiah in relation to the new testament Jeremiah was rejected by his; relatives, friends and the Israelites. In the New Testament, Jesus was ----- 344 # rejected in his hometown of Nazareth: and by the religious leaders of Israel. Jeremiah compared himself to a lamb being led to the slaughter. Jesus in the New Testament is referred to as a lamb led to the slaughter. Jeremiahs suffering symbolizes divine judgment over Judah. However Jesus sufferings was to bring salvation to all mankind. Both Jeremiah and Jesus experienced spiritual agony. Jeremiah experience agony and felt left alone by God. Jesus too felt agony when praying in the garden of Gethsemane and when on the cross. Jeremiah taught that God is universal and a just judge. The gospel of Jesus is universal and everybody is judged according to his or her faith in God. Jeremiah and Jesus accused the Israelites of turning the temple into a den of robbers. Jeremiah and Jesus were both accused of blasphemy. Both challenged false beliefs about the temple. Both Jeremiah and Jesus spoke of the coming judgment of God. The new covenant was fulfilled in the life and ministry of Jesus Christ Jeremiah spoke of hope and restoration. Jesus gives hope of eternal life in the New Testament. ii. Relationship of Jeremiahs teaching to Christian today. Christians are to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. They are empowered by the Holy Spirit to endure suffering and to grow spiritually. Christians like Jeremiah face false prophets who speak in Jesus name. Christians are to be watchful and obey Yahweh Like Jeremiah Christians should call people to repentance. The new covenant is fulfilled in Christians ----- 345 # individual relationship with God.

After reading this lesson, i. Describe how the people of Judah lived and worshipped. ii. Explain the conquest of Israel and Judah by foreign forces iii. Give reasons why God allowed Judah and Israel to be conquered and exiled. a. Political and historical background. From 587 BC to 538 BC, Israelites were in exile. In 538 B.C., the first group of Israelites was set free and returned to Judah. Cyrus the Great, of Persia ruled his subjects through governors. They were led out of Babylon by Joshua the high priest and Zerubbabel who became the first governor of Judah. Some Jews remained in Babylon. They were referred to as Jews in Diaspora or dispersion. Other Jews remained in other lands including Egypt, and Mediterranean lands Nehemiah. He was a cupbearer in the palace of the Persian king Artaxerxes I. He later became a ----- 347 # governor of Judah. Even after the rebuilding of the wall of Jerusalem, Israelites remained subjects of the Persian king. The Wall of Jerusalem was important to Israel and Judah. The Wall represented a sense of pride, ownership, privacy, independence and Security. The Greeks conquered the Persians; who were later conquered by Romans. b. Social background The Jews in foreign lands retained their Jewish way of life. The land of Israel was partly occupied by foreigners. The foreign cultures of neighboring rulers influenced Israelites who returned. They for example, intermarried with foreigners, a custom that God did not allow. Israelites were not to intermarry with other people according to the Mosaic Law. In spite of this however, Jews maintained their separated identity. Some of the foreigners despised Jews. The wealthy Jews oppressed the poor Jews. In Jerusalem there was starvation. Nehemiah condemned oppression of the poor. c. Religious background Jews returned to rebuild the temple of Jerusalem and the altar of God for sacrifices. While in exile, Jews were allowed by the Babylonian king to practice their religion. They worshipped Yahweh, practiced circumcision, obeyed dietary laws and observed the Sabbath. The exiles could not however observe all the religious practices for example offering animal sacrifices. ----- 348 # Nehemiah returned to Jerusalem to rebuild its the wall. The temple of Jerusalem was rebuilt, cleared and dedicated to God. LESSON TWO. Prayers by Nehemiah and modern Christians Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson the learner should be able to: a. Outline occasions when Nehemiah prayed to the Lord. b. Discuss the importance of prayer Nehemiah prayed, mourned, and fasted. He prayed often and for all actions, keeping Gods law, forgiveness, punishments, human relations, Jerusalem, good works, contributions and offerings, observance of Sabbath day, and preparing duty allocations for priests and Levites. . i. When he learnt about the suffering of Jews who remained in Judah and the ruined state of Jerusalem; He prayed for forgiveness on behalf of his people (Neh.4: 1 11). ii. Making a request to King Artaxerxes to be permitted to return to Judah (Neh.2: 4 iii. When his enemies ridiculed the Jews and planned to discourage them from rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem. Tobiah in particular said that the wall was poorly constructed and it could be brought down by; a fox jumping on it. Nehemiah requested God to punish the enemies who were mocking temple builders (Neh.4: 4 5). iv. When he learnt that his enemies were conspiring to attack Jerusalem to stop the construction work, he prayed and organised people to provide a 24-hour guard of the wall (Neh.4: 7 9). ----- 349 # .v. For his good work, he prayed for his works (Neh 5:19). vi. When his enemies plotted to destroy him, he prayed God for strength and courage to overcome his enemies (Neh 6: 19). vii. When Shemaih attempted to frighten him to hide in the temple claiming that there was a plot to kill him, Nehemiah prayed and asked God to punish his enemies (Neh 6:14). viii. When he organized contributions for Levites and musicians; and people to distribute them. He asked God to remember his work for the house of God (Neh 13:14). ix. He stopped trade on the Sabbath day, and organised rest on the Sabbath day. He warned traders against violating the Sabbath law. He asked Lord to remember him for these actions (Neh.13: 22). x. Nehemiah prayed for punishment of the son of Joiada. The son of Joiada had brought disgrace to the priest hood by marrying a foreigner, the daughter of Sanballat from the town of Beth Horon, (Neh 13:29). After cleansing the Israelites of foreign influence, he forbade mixed marriages xi. He prepared duty regulations for priests and Levites. He allocated them duties. He then organised Jews to bring offerings for maintaining priests and Levites. He prayed God to remember his work for the temple, priests and Levites (Neh 13:31). b. Importance of prayer in Christian life Through prayers, Christians express their faith in God and praise God for his greatness, goodness, holiness, and majesty. Prayer brings Christians closer to God; it strengthens their relationship with God. ----- 350 # Through prayer Christians request for their needs, blessings, success, good health, and protection among other requests. Prayers help Christians to listen to God and to seek his will. Prayer is a source of strength. It gives Christians courage to face and overcome lifes challenges. Christians seek guidance, comfort and support in times of trials. In prayer, Christians intercede for the sick, poor, hungry, prisoners, friends, family and community. The communal / public prayers unite Christians together. Through prayers, Christians ask for forgiveness and the ability to forgive others. In prayers, Christians trust that God listens and answers their prayers. LESSON THREE: LEADERSHIP QUALITIES OF NEHEMIAH Learning outcomes. By the end of the lesson you should be able to: - 1.

LESSON FOUR. BUILDING THE WALL OF JERUSALEM The wall of Jerusalem was destroyed when Babylonians conquered Judah. After finishing the wall, he dedicated it to the Lord. Dedication is to devote something in honor of a person held dear or to set aside something for some special purpose. Learning Outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: - a. Describe the problems that Nehemiah faced when building the wall of Jerusalem b. Describe the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem c. Identify lessons, which Christians can learn from Nehemiah. a. Nehemiah rebuilt the wall of Jerusalem. The rebuilt wall had several gates with different names. The gates were the entrances to Jerusalem. Their names were Dung gate, Potsherd gate, Fountain gate, Water gate, Horse gate, East gate, Sheep gate, Fish gate, Watch gate and Ephraim gate. Knowing the names of the gates may not be necessary but its good information. b. Problems faced by Nehemiah. When Nehemiah was building the wall of Jerusalem, he faced many challenges. There was lack of cooperation by the nobles of Tekoa. They did not want to do manual work ----- 353 # at first but they later repented. Nehemiah faced opposition from enemies such as. Sanballat, and Tobiah, the Arab who tried to thwart the progress of Nehemiahs work. As he built Jerusalem, the rich oppressed the poor. This was worsened by famine The priests misused the temple and the offerings. For example, temple duties had been abandoned. The Levites were not getting their share of the offerings and the Sabbath was violated. There was laxity in observance of the Sabbath. This was a challenge to Nehemiah because Sabbath day should be kept holy. There was a lot of foreign influence because of the conquests by several foreign armies, intermarriages and interactions between Jews, neighboring people and foreigners. Marriages in particular threatened the identity of the Israelites as a nation. Worse still Priests married to foreign women defiled the priesthood according to Nehemiah. Because of these assimilations of Jews through marriages, Nehemiah knew that Israel and Judah would eventually be lost as Gods nation. Because of his opposition to these interactions, Nehemiah received death threats. c. Dedication of the wall of Jerusalem (NEH. 12:27 47) The rebuilt wall was dedicated to God. The wall restored security and prestige of Gods people. The wall of Jerusalem was set-aside for God in a solemn ceremony. There was a dedication ceremony in which people sung with symbols, harps, lyres, trumpets and other instruments. The priests, and Levites purified themselves. ----- 354 # The people led by Ezra, Nehemiah, the priests and other leaders of Judah walked around the wall. They divided themselves into two groups. One group walked from the right side and the other group from the left side and converged at the temple. Sacrifices were offered and people rejoiced. Some men were appointed to be in charge of the storehouses; where tithes, and first fruits of harvest were kept. d. Relevance of Nehemiahs experience to Christians today Christians should expect opposition, as did Nehemiah. They should not be afraid of being ridiculed, mocked and despised. If it happens, Christians should persevere in Gods work. They should put their trust in God like Nehemiah did. They should also fight for the welfare of the disadvantaged groups and not exploit them. They have a moral obligation to condemn injustice and take practical steps to help solve problems that afflict individuals, groups, nations, and society. They should be in the forefront fighting HIV/ AIDS and drug abuse. Christians should be on the look out for external influence that may corrupt morals of the society and the church. They should learn that leadership involves suffering, persecution, and sacrifices. This is foregoing personal interests for the sake of the kingdom of God. LESSON FIVE: RENEWAL OF THE COVENANT Learning outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: - i. List the stages followed to renew the covenant. ii. Identify issues that Ezra mentioned in his prayer ----- 355 # iii. List the vows that were made by the Israelites during renewal of the covenant i. Stages of the renewal of the covenant. Israelites were the chosen people of God. They had suffered many hardships. There was therefore a need for the renewal of the covenant between God and Israelites. The ceremony to renewal the covenant was held in Jerusalem and was led by Ezra, the Levites and other religious leaders. The renewal of the covenant can be discussed in 3 main stages: Stage 1. A great public assembly was held in the square of Jerusalem inside the water gate. Gods law was read and expounded to the people. The people of Israel praised and worshipped God. They cried and grieved. They were sad because they realized that they had failed to observe the Mosaic Law. They were instructed to go and celebrate, as it was a holy day of God and an occasion for joy not sorrows. State 2. The feast of booths/tabernacle was celebrated for 7 days. It was a reminder of the days in the wilderness when the Israelites dwelt in tents. The Law of Moses was read each day during the celebrations. Stage 3. There was a public confession of sin. People fasted, prayed and praised God. The public confession was followed by the renewal of the covenant vows and a promise to keep Gods law in future. Ezras prayer closed the celebrations. In his prayer, he recalled Gods acts of creation. He then recounted ----- 356 # the history of the Israelites. He mentioned the previous acts of God; where the Lord had demonstrated His love and mercy for the Israelites. He then confessed the sins of their ancestors and the present Israelites. These were the sins of rebellion and disobedience. ii. Promises and vows made by Israelites during the renewal of the covenant. Israelites promised God that they would Live according to Gods law, by obeying all his commands and requirements. Stop intermarrying with foreigners living in their land. Cancel debts every 7th year Contribute annually towards the temple expenses to ensure that the house of God was not neglected. Provide sacrifices and offerings for the temple and arrange for provision of wood for burnt sacrifices according to the law. Offer first fruits of their harvest and dedicate the first born and flocks as required by the law. Pay for their tithes as required by the law. Which lessons can we learn from the renewal of the covenant? God is good, loving, merciful, and faithful to his promises. God forgives all people and we are all sinners. We fail in our moral obligation to God and to one another. Since we are sinners, we should repent our sins and strive to live according to Gods law. Christians are to encourage one another as well as others to repent as it brings about reconciliation with God and with one another. ----- 357 # Christians should be forgiving and avoid situations that lead them to sin SAQ.

Changes for improvement are known as reforms, which are either political, economical, social, religious or a combination of any of them. Examples of reformers are King David, Prophet Elijah, and Martin Luther King among others. Nehemiah. After building the wall, Nehemiah went back to King Artaxerxes II who if you remember had given permission to go to Jerusalem and build its destroyed perimeter wall. Later he returned to Jerusalem and carried out these reforms. Lesson outcomes. After reading this lesson, you should be able to: a. List reforms of Nehemiah b. Suggest what we can learn from the teachings of Nehemiah and that of St. Lukes Gospel a. Reforms by Nehemiah. We have discussed reforms, which Nehemiah carried out during his stay in Judah, where he was the governor (Neh 5:14). The major reforms were i Rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem as well as its gates. ----- 358 # ii Cleansing of the temple: Nehemiah threw him out Tobiah a foreigner who was living in the temple quarters. iii Reinstatement of the Levites and other temple workers. Levites, and musicians had left the temple duties to work in their farms to earn a livelihood. They were supposed to work in the temple and be supported by member contributions. Nehemiah organised Jews to make offerings and tithes to support temple workers. With these contributions, Nehemiah reinstated and redeployed Levites, priests, musicians and other temple workers. iv Reform of the Sabbath observance. The Israelites were told by the Lord to work for 6 days and rest on the Sabbath day. The Jews started working on the Sabbath day. The merchants camped outside waiting for the reopening of the gates of the temple to do business. When Nehemiah started rebuilding Jerusalem, he ordered closure of the gates of Jerusalem from the eve of Sabbath to the end of the Sabbath. v Separations from foreigners (Neh.13: 23 30). It was against Gods law to marry foreigners. Nehemiah cursed the men who had married foreign wives. He beat Jews, pulled their hair and forced them to take oaths that neither they, nor their sons nor daughters shall intermarry. vi Purification of priesthood and the office of the Levites. Nehemiah cleansed the priesthood. He sent away Eliashib, a grandson of the High Priest Joshua, because he had given Tobiah a foreigner, a room in ----- 359 # the temple. b. Comparing teachings of Nehemiah and St. Lukes Gospel i Nehemiah lived a prayerful life while St. Lukes gospel emphasizes importance of prayer. Jesus taught the role of prayer in Christianity. ii Nehemiah fasted, St. Lukes gospel records that Jesus fasted. iii Nehemiah prayed for forgiveness of sinful Jews. We see Jesus in St. Lukes gospel being a leader who prayed for the forgiveness of his enemies. iv Nehemiah cared for the needy. Jesus showed compassion to the needy and taught his followers to follow His example. v Nehemiah condemned evil so did Jesus vi Nehemiah is seen as a reformer of the Mosaic Law. In St Luke Gospel, Jesus was also a reformer. He insisted on inner holiness. vii Nehemiah cleansed the temple of traders so did Jesus. viii Nehemiah was very strict on the Sabbath observance. St. Lukes gospel teaches that Jesus is lord over Sabbath. He healed and Worked on Sabbath. ix Nehemiah was opposed to racial intermarriages, St. Luke Gospel was dedicated to Theophilus, a gentile convert x Christianity kingdom of God in St. Lukes gospel is for all, not just the Jews. xi. Nehemiah had good leadership skills and wisdom. These are demonstrated in St Luke Gospel. c. Relating Nehemiahs teachings to Christian life today i Prayers and fasting are fundamental to Christians just like they were to Nehemiah who led a prayerful ----- 360 # life. ii Nehemiahs example teaches Christians to face all forms of opposition with courage, wisdom, and firmness iii The good leadership qualities of Nehemiah are relevant to Christians and they are to be emulated. iv Nehemiah cared for the needy. Christians should learn to give spiritual food, physical food and clothing to the needy, orphans, widows. v As Nehemiah renewed the covenant, Christians should seek spiritual renewal publicly and privately. They should seek for communal as well as individual forgiveness. vi Nehemiah cleansing the temple and organised an inventory for temple contributions, offerings and tithes. He also appointed key people to look after temple contributions and pay Levites and priests. Christians should learn to use the church buildings and contributions rightly vii Nehemiah was guided by the Law of Moses and land just like Christians are guided by the scriptures (Bible) and the law of the nation. The Bible is the source and basis of Christian principles. Revision questions 1. Describe the political background of Nehemiah 2. Describe the social background to the vocation of Nehemiah 3.

It is not irritable or resentful It does not rejoice at wrong doings but rejoices in the truth Love bears, believes, hopes and endures all things It is ready to deep firm its faith, hope and its patience Love does not succumb to pressure but always perseveres He justified that love is the greatest gift of the spiritual gifts because in prayer, the gift of tongues becomes nothing but meaningful when accompanied by love (charity) On faith, Paul says that even if one has faith that can move mountains but has no love, he is nothing Charity or generosity including sacrificing own life is nothing without love Qn m.

Cheating that one has a certain gift of the Holy Spirit Commercialization of the gifts. People are asked to pay money before being prayed for or being healed False interpretation of the bible, prophecy or predicting the future Unscrupulous Christians may impart demoniac powers or innocent faithful Some Christians who possess the gifts of the Holy Spirit develop pride or selfishness or superiority complex Wrong use of the gifts of the Holy Spirit where faithful get into ecstasy or trance which may lead to injuries Distinguishing oneself as a person with a special call e.g. preacher with intention of exploiting others or situations TOPIC TWO: UNITY OF BELIEVERS Qn a.

Women are under represented Discrimination against the youth or churches ignoring the youth in running the church Tribalism where Christians are divided along tribal lines International differences ----- 372 # Qn d. Discuss reasons why members of Christian families in Kenya find it difficult to harmoniously live together Unfaithfulness or promiscuity Misuse of family resources or lack of resources Child abuse e.g. beating, raping, incest or favourism Alcoholism or drug use and abuse Separation of family members e.g. due to wage labour or education Denial of conjugal rights Sickness e.g. HIV/AIDs, impotence, barrenness or cancer Child delinquency Lack of tolerance or forgiveness or presence of cruelty Greed for wealth or self esteemed prestige or professionalism Religious fanaticism or denominational differences Traditional or cultural inhabitation or western cultural influences or permissive Generation gap Qn e. explain how the church strengthen family relationships today Through guidance and counseling and mediation Hold seminars, conferences for couples, children the youth through publications on Christian living e.g. magazines, books or pamphlets Use of mass media e.g. televisions.

Prophecy: Is the message spoken by a prophet. Oracles spoken by prophets. Q2. List the five categories of true prophets i) Major prophets These include Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel. They are called Major Prophets because the books are long and contain clearly written messages. They bear the names of the writers. ii) Minor prophets These refer to 12 books that are short and contain less important than those in major books e.g. Amos, Hosea, Joel, Obadiah through to Malachi. iii) Canonical prophets Both the major and minor prophets are together referred to as canonical prophets. iv) The early prophets They belonged to guilds or schools. They lived together in communities under a chief prophet. Elijah and Elisha are examples. These are those who served in places of worship e.g. at Dan, Bethuel) They were called cultic prophets because they were associated with religious activities in shrines. They traveled around together delivering oracles. v) Cultic prophets They worked side by side with priests and said prayers especially peoples petition to Yahweh. ----- 374 # Q3.

Foretold the future. b) Differences: Old Testament Tradition African Received their message from God Received their message from spirits and ancestors. Appointed by God. Inherited Rejected by people Respected and feared in society Prophecy went to other nations Confined in tribal community Prophecies preserved in writing Passed on orally Believe and worship of one God Believe in god spirits Performed miracles Did not Q6. What is the relevant of prophets to Christians today? Through reading their prophecies, Christians get to know the will of God. Jesus who is the cornerstone of Christianity is stressed throughout prophecy since Abraham. Prophecy has helped many to be preachers (i.e. prophecy = preaching). Christians learn to be faithful to Yahweh just like the Old Testament prophets. They too learn to be holy and prayerful like them e.g. Jeremiah. Prophets encouraged justice e.g. Elijah, Christians should do the same. ----- 376 # As prophets, Christians should provide hope to the people in times of suffering. They learn that they can face suffering just like the prophets did e.g. Jeremiah e.g. persecution, rejection etc. They should condemn sin like the prophets. The writings of the prophets strengthen their faith when they need them. PROPHET AMOS Q1. List the visions that Amos saw He saw a swarm of locusts. Amos 7:1-3 He saw a great fire. Amos 7:4-6 The plumb line/crooked wall. Amos 7:7-8 Basket of ripe fruits. Amos 8:1-3 The destruction of the temple. Amos 9:1-4 Q2. Explain the evils that Amos condemned in his teachings Sexual immorality (Amos 2:17) Amos condemned temple prostitution 23:17. Father and son were going to the same woman. They copied these from the Canaanite pagans, which was wrong and unfaithful to Yahweh. Slavery: (Amos 2:6) The righteous, the rich made the poor slaves. This is because they borrowed from the rich and could not repay so they made them work like slaves and treated them harshly. Some sold them for a paid of sandals. This was breaking Gods laws, which guided them on how to treat their poor fellow Israelites. Idolatry: Amos 5:26 Amos accused them for breaking Gods covenant by worshipping other gods. ----- 377 # Cheating in Business: He condemned the following: Merchants used false measures They overcharged the poor Sold goods of low quality They sold poor people for not paying debts They too charged high interest rates Bribery and Corruption Ex. 23:8 He condemned elders who were unjust and corrupt. They took bribes and grew rich from heavy levies from innocent people in law courts. Greed and excessive luxury He condemned women of Samaria who drink and lived in luxury when there were poor needy people. Breaking Gods law on garments secured for pledges God gave Israelites items that were to be given out to the creditors as a guarantees for the goods borrowed e.g. Millstones for grinding, were to be taken and returned in the evening because they were used daily. Robbery and Violence Poor were being oppressed and violated. Self Indulgence and false sense of security Leaders thought God could not punish them because they were a chosen race. But Amos told them they would be attacked. Q3. Give reasons why Prophet Amos condemned idol worship in Israel It broke the covenant way of life. It was against the 10 commandments, which directed the Israelites to worship one God. It was a sign of disobedience to God. ----- 378 # It promoted immorality e.g. temple prostitution. The worship of God belittled and degraded God. It promoted falsehood in the society. Religion became commercialized. Led to false prophecy. People got concerned with external behavior and not internal. Q4.

Hypocrisy/pretence in worship Murder/suicide/abortion/genocide Exploitation of the poor/robbery ----- 379 # Dishonesty False prophets Human sacrifices among devil worshippers Sexual immorality e.g. adultery Q3. Explain the symbolisms used during the call of Prophet Jeremiah God touched Jeremiahs mouth. This was to symbolize that God was the source of the message. Jeremiah was to deliver. A branch of an almond tree that was base God was watching to see the fulfillment of the message he gave to Jeremiah. A pot of boiling facing away from the North and about to tilt toward Judah. God would use a nation from the North to bring judgement on the people of Judah because of their wickedness. A fortified city. A bronze wall and an iron pillar. God was going to protect him even though he was going to meet opposition. To uproot and pull down, to destroy and overthrow. God would pass judgement on the nation of Judah and other nations. To build and to plant. There was still hope of the restoration of people of Judah after exile. Q4. What did Jeremiah teach about t the New Covenant? The new covenant was to be written in peoples hearts. The covenant was to be made between God and the remnant community after exile. The people were to have a personal knowledge of God in the new covenant. God was to forgive their sin and remember them no more. ----- 380 # Each individual was responsible for his won sins. The new covenant was to be initiated by God. The new covenant was to last forever. It was as a result in the emergence of a new people of God or new Israel. Q5. Why did Prophet Jeremiah condemn the way the Israelites worshipped? They broke Gods commands e.g. the 1st and do not worship other gods they worshipped idols. They practiced hypocrisy i.e. they were concerned with external religious observance while their hearts were far from God. They forgot the saving history of God and worshipped other gods e.g. Asherah. They practiced syncretism i.e. they worshipped both Yahweh and foreign Gods. They listened to false prophets and rejected Gods prophets e.g. Jeremiah. They even killed some. They dishonored the sanctity of human life by offering human sacrifice. They neglected the disadvantaged (widows & orphans). They were dishonest in business and deceitful to one another. They narrowed themselves in necromancy, divination and magic. They rebelled against God by breaking the covenant relationship. Q6. Explain Jeremiahs temple sermon as recorded in Jeremiah 7:1-15 God commanded prophet Jeremiah to speak in the temple. It was a response to the people of Israel to stop understanding religion through the practice of syncretism and immorality. At the gate to the temple, Jeremiah proclaimed that the people of Judah had to change their way of ----- 381 # life and stick to the covenant they made with God. They had to stop defiling the temple of placing idols in it. They had to stop committing social injustices and as murderer/exploitation of the weak, orphans widows and foreigners. The practice of human sacrifice was murder and displeasing to God. Hypocrisy was bad. The Israelites believed that the temple was secure from destruction because of its holiness was not true. God would destroy Israelites/Jerusalem through invasion of a foreign nation. If the people stopped their evil ways, God would not bring judgement upon them. God would destroy the temple of Jerusalem and send the people to exile. Q7. What forms of punishment did Jeremiah prophesy that God would use on Judah? The punishment would be in form of a foreign body that God use to conquer Judah. They would be attacked and their city destroyed. People would suffer and die due to their sins. The punishment would in form of drought. This would affect people and animals. Gods punishment would come through death, diseases and sword. Their punishment would be a defeat inflicted to them by Babylonian. The punishment would be the loss of their land to a foreign nation and their enslavement. God would allow the enemy to destroy Jerusalem and take survivors to captivity. ----- 382 # Q8. Outline the content of Jeremiahs letter to exiles in Babylon (Jer. 29) He encouraged the Israelites in Babylon to build houses and live in them. Plant gardens and eat their produce. Marry and increase. Pray for their rulers. Not to worship false gods. Not to be cheated by false prophets. To obey their masters. Worship one God. Q9. Explain four symbolic acts related to judgement and punishment as demonstrated by Prophet Jeremiah Linen waist cloth the rotten/useless linen cloth that had been hidden in the caves and lift to rot stood for Israels state of being useless before the eyes of God. A sign that they had soiled their priesthood. Jeremiah was asked not to marry the solitary life symbolized solitude in exile. Two baskets of fig fruits the bad fruits signified that the bad people would be punished. Wooden yoke he was asked to carry a wooden yoke and work around with it signifying suffering in Babylon exile. Breaking an earthly flask destruction of the temple. Visit to a potter whereby the potter destroyed a pot due to poor shape and remolded it. God would remold Israel to a shape befitting them. ----- 383 # Not to comfort anybody these would be sorrow and suffering, no help while in exile. Q10. Identify the relevance of Jeremiahs teaching to Christians life today Christians are called to preach Gods gospel as Jeremiah did. Christians should accept suffering like Jeremiah did. They should learn to distinguish between false and true prophets. Like Jeremiah, they should condemn evil in society. They have a duty to call people to repentance as Jeremiah did. Christians should be good examples to the people by living, holy and upright lives as Jeremiah did. People should be able to know the nature of God through the lives of Christians. They should believe they are the new community as prophesied by Jeremiah in the new covenant. Q11. In what ways is the prophetic mission of Jeremiah similar to that of Jesus? Both were rejected by their own relatives and communities. Both experienced opposition from political and religious authorities. Both prophesied the destruction of the temple. Both lamented over the stubbornness of the people of Jerusalem. Both predicted divine judgement and punishment in Israel. Jeremiah predicted the new covenant that is fulfilled by Jesus. Prophet Nehemiah Qn 1. Describe the political background of Nehemiah He worked during the Babylonian exile which lasted between 589- 538 BC During his vacation, Israelites were oppressed politically The Israelites hoped that God would soon liberate them fro this bondage In 538 BC the Babylonians were conquered by Cyrus the great king of Persia ----- 384 # In 538 BC king Cyrus allowed Israelites to return to Judah King Cyrus gave the Israelites a decree to rebuild the temple of Jerusalem In 538BC the first exile under Zebu Babel Joshua the priest departed from Babylon and started to rebuild alters of God Under the guidance of prophets Haggai and Zachariah the temple was rebuilt and dedicated The second exile arrived under prophet Ezra; after king Artaxerxes authorized Ezra to re establish Israelites religious and moral expectations of the Mosaic Law. Nehemiah was a servant the king Artaxerxes palace. The king authorized him to go and rebuild the walls of Jerusalem Amidst all opposition from Samaritan, Nehemiah accomplished the reconstruction of the walls of Jerusalem in 52 days.

Consequently, Jerusalem once more became the centre of worship for Israel. Idolatry was not allowed again in Israel after the exile. The temple of Jerusalem was dedicated to Yahweh. The Israelites renewed their covenant with God under prophet and priest Ezra. Nehemiah carried out various religious reforms Qn 4. Describe occasions when Nehemiah prayed When he heard about the suffering of his fellow Jews back in Judah When he learned about the state of ruin of Jerusalem and king Atarterxes to request him to allow him go back to Judah When his enemies e.g. Tobiah and Samballat ridiculed him as he reconstructed the walls of Jerusalem When he learned of his enemies conspiracy to attack Jerusalem ----- 386 # When his enemies conspired to destroy his life/ kill him When Shemiah attempted to frighten him to hide in the temple as hi life was in danger When he cleansed and arranged the temple as a house of God When he warned the people of Judah against violating the Sabbath law After chasing away the son in law of Samballat from the temple After cleansing the Israelites of foreign influence Qn 5. State occasions when Christians pray When they are faced with diverse persecutions. They ask God to protect them When they dont understand certain scriptures. They ask God to give them revelation When they are faced with certain difficulties of life. They ask God to help them When the nation is facing political crisis. They pray for peace When they feel inadequate and sinful. They ask God to perform certain miracles for them e.g. healing Qn 6. What is the importance of prayer in Christian life? Prayer helps Christians to praise God, give thanks to him and to repent It helps Christians to pour out their hearts to God It helps Christians to rely to God for emotional and mental stability. It helps put our problems to God It strengthens Christians. It gives them determination and character to remain steadfast in their responsibilities despite the challenges Through prayer a Christian can request to stand against personal attacks and temptations Prayer is the source of courage and strength in times of tribulations It brings one closer to God, we use it to praise God, use it to ask for Gods supply of their needs, used ----- 387 # to ask for forgiveness and promotes important virtues e.g. persistence and patience and promotes unity among different communities Qn 6.

He employed different strategies to counteract his opposer Qn7. explain the relevance of Nehemiahs leadership to a Christian today A Christian should use his/her present position to serve God Christians should acknowledge God as their source of power and giver of gifts A leader should appoint people who are trustworthy and honest to help him/ her in ruling the country God answers our prayers as a result of asking others for help A Christian leader should keep his /her plans a secret until it matures to make an announcement Christians should share their visions with others the way Nehemiah did Leaders should take care of the needy in the society As a Christian one could be lured to temptations; the way Nehemiah was opposed we should be ready to resist temptations Christians should be ready to help in solving problems in the society Christians should act as role models by carrying out spiritual activities with the truth and helping in work after starting projects. Qn 8. Explain the relevance of Nehemiahs experience to Christians They should not exploit the needy and disadvantaged They should defend the rights of the weak and use their work place, family and friends They should ask God to protect them from the mischief of their enemies That they should pray to God to give them guidance in their endeavors That they should persevere in all difficulties as Nehemiah did ----- 389 # The should condemn the injustices in the society They should know that leadership involves challenges and difficulties They should be practically involved in problem solving e.g. HIV/AIDs scourge Qn 9.

FORM FOUR CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN LIVING Form four work deals with social issues in society. We shall compare the issues in the following communities The Traditional African Society Christian community and the contemporary one. By the end of it the student should be able to understand the meaning of life and live to its fullest. TOPIC ONE. INTRODUCTION TO CHRISTIAN ETHICS Instructions. Form four work covers contemporary issues in a Christians life. You are advised to read newspapers, listen to radio news, watch television news and current affairs and any other relevant news source. Work in twos. Give yourself topics to study and then give a presentation to your partner or colearner. Learning outcomes. After reading and discussing Christian ethics, you should be able to: a. Explain the meaning of Christians ethics b. Explore the basics of Christians ethics a. Christian ethics. The word ethics comes from a Greek term Ethikos which means custom, or conduct. Ethics are moral principles, which influence a persons behaviour. Ethics are defined as the systematic ----- 392 # study of human actions and behaviour. We use ethics to judge, determine and assess the right and wrong of human behaviour. Morals refer to human character, which is the inclination to behave in oneway or another. Ethics is the study of morals and they determine and influence personal and societal behaviour. Christian ethics is the study of human conduct or behaviour from a Christian point of view. b. Basis of Christian ethics. Sources of Christians ethics: - 1. The bible, teachings of Jesus Christ 2. Human reason and experience 3. Natural law 4. The Christian community the church 5. Situation ethics 6. Authoritative Christian literature based on the bible 7. Gods revelation through prophets i. Human reason. These are internal thoughts that guide us when we are making decisions and taking actions. We use our minds and thoughts when confronted by situations. They also rely on internal thoughts in their life experiences. Internal guiding thoughts have many parts. One is our Conscience. This is our inner self that tells us and lets us know what is right and wrong. There are four types of consciences; doubtful conscience, sensitive conscience, certain conscience and perplexed conscience. For a Christian, rights and wrongs are in the Bible. God gave the Law of Moses to Israelites. Jesus came and explained the Old Testament and taught new scriptures in the New Testament. These teachings, ----- 393 # which we have covered from Form one to three, explain very clearly what is right and wrong. When doubtful of the morality of an action, Christian consults the Bible to know if a decision is right or wrong. ii. Human Experiences: these are internal and external guides When confronted by situations, Christians use their minds i.e. human reason and their life experiences in making decisions. They rely on internal guides, (Human reason) and experience (external guides) Internal guides (i) Conscience: Mind, aspect of knowing right or wrong. When right, theres approval when wrong it registers guilt. When doubtful of the morality of an action we should not do it If conscience is perplexed then make us decision. A decision should be based on a certain conscience. Types of conscience - Doubtful conscience - Sensitive conscience - Certain conscience - Perplexed conscience 2. One can also make decisions based on knowledge and free will To make a decision one should have - Facts about the act, its aims, circumstances. - One should be free to perform A decision ought to be thoughtful 3. Intuition: inner feeling, insight Its an internal moral sense to do good or avoid evil. Intuition is important in situations that require ----- 394 # quick and immediate that requires quick and immediate action. 4. Feelings Feelings are subjective e.g. it feels good to do so this, hence will do it can be dangerous to make decisions purely based on feelings especially in marriage friendship etc. Eternal guides Experience Guides here include authoritative persons such as parents, teachers, police, civil leaders philosophers, and religious leaders. Rules from secular, religions, and African traditional culture are part of external guides. The bible The bible, quoted in the text but now out of text guides Christian behaviour. God communicates to his people through the Bible. The Bible offers answers to questions in relation to the life of a Christian. Today, there are ethical issues not found in the bible e.g. HIV / AIDS, sexual and reproductive health rights, contraceptives, abortion, globalization, cloning, environmental degradation, genetically modified foods, terrorism, international trade etc. this gives reason and other sources / factors are basis of Christian ethics in addition to the bible. Moral principles in the bible - They are mostly found in the teachings of Jesus and the ten commandments, sermon on the mountain - Christians are also encouraged to have Faith ----- 395 # - The virtues encouraged include generosity, love, kindness, faithfulness, patience, humility, peace, mercy, loyalty etc. Christian community church Church leadership can make decisions, which touch on their followers. They guide people on ethical issues e.g. politics, land, justice, abortion, contraception etc. Church organizations give rules on those conduct of their members. Natural law - The awareness that one has to choose good and avoid evil - If one studies human nature and reflects upon it he/she will discover natural laws of human behaviour - Natural law, natural rights such as right to education, life own property many etc. are incorporated into the constitution of any nation. - The constitution then guides the behaviour of list citizens; Christians being citizens of a country are guided in their behaviour by the constitution. Situation ethics One should reason out the rightness or wrongness of an act. The rightness or wrongness of an act depends on its uniqueness, the circumstances - Christians are warned against making decisions based on circumstances or the situation e.g. a pregnant student seeking abortion as the option so as to continue with education. Gods revelation God reveals himself to people through prophets, natural events, the law, dreams and visions. Through such ways God guides Christian on how they should approach certain issues. Gods revelation does not ----- 396 # contradict with the bible. Revision questions 1. What is the meaning of Christian ethics? 2. What is the basis or source or foundation of Christian ethics? 3. List the basic life skills that one needs to be able to lead a better life TOPIC TWO: CHRISTIAN APPROACHES TO HUMAN SEXUALITY, MARRIAGE AND FAMILY INTRODUCTION Christian approaches refer to how Christians view and handle issues of human sexuality, marriage and the family in accordance with Christians ethics.

By the end of this lesson, you should be able to: a Define human sexuality, marriage, and family b Explain the Christian teaching of human sexuality c Assess the traditional African understanding of human sexuality d Determine gender roles in traditional African home e Explain Christians teachings about male and female relationships f Explain and appreciate Christian teaching on responsible sexual behaviour g Explain Christian teaching on irresponsible sexual behaviour and their consequences a. Human sexuality. This is a sacred gift from God. It was given to Adam and Eve. Human sexuality is that which makes us male or female. It is our biological or physiological differences associated with the state of being male or female. It is part of our biological make up. Males and female have different body ----- 397 # structures, features, appearances and biological characteristics. In terms of physical strength more men are stronger than females. Besides the biological make up, we have an emotional side, which includes our attitudes, and feelings. Females are said to be more emotional, and talkative than males. Human sexuality is also in our brain and mind and it is what makes us human beings. If you look at animals they also have different physiological features based on sexual differences. b. Christian teaching on human sexuality. Males and females are Gods creation. Men and women were created for many reasons. These are (1) to be fruitful and to multiply; and (2) for companionship. In Genesis we learn that men and women share the image of God because God intended man and woman to play complementary roles and both are equal before God. Sex in marriage is a sign of love and it is sacred. In marriage man / and woman become one flesh. Both of them have the ability to control their sexual desires. Christian teaching forbids: sex before marriage, adultery or unfaithfulness, and other unnatural sexual behaviours like lesbianism, homosexuality or being gay, and incest. God created human body and it is to be kept holy. Chastity is encouraged while unfaithfulness in marriage is discouraged. Husbands / wives are to respect one another and give to each other in mutual love. c. Traditional African understanding of human sexuality. Human sexuality is highly valued in traditional ----- 398 # African communities. It is understood in terms of marriage and parenthood. Procreation was the sole purpose of sex. Sex was to be practiced in marriage and it was regarded as another sacred duty. Adultery was discouraged and offenders punished. Irresponsible sexual relationships were forbidden. Virginity before marriage was highly valued. If a girl lost her virginity before marriage, she was treated with scorn and punishment. If a boy impregnating a girl, he was fined. In traditional African society it was a taboo to discuss openly sex matters. Grandparents taught sex education to their grandchildren. Sex education was taught during initiation stages. Free mixing of girls and boys was not allowed except under supervision. Girls were married off immediately after initiation to avoid temptation of engaging in pre-marital sex. To reinforce self discipline in relationships between the opposite sexes the African traditional society instilled the fear of supernatural curses through myths, taboos and rules. Marital status. Husbands and wives were expected to relate to each other, their parents, and in laws according to the community customs. Conflicts between a husband and a wife were resolved through intervention of relatives. d. Gender roles. There are specific chores and duties for either male or female in African traditional societies. Roles were therefore according to gender. Boys went hunting, herding, while girls fetched ----- 399 # firewood, and helped in cooking. At an early age, girls and boys would mix freely as they played together. Mature boys and girls however, were restricted from mixing freely without supervision by elders. But there was gender identification. The boys identified with their fathers and other male adults, while girls identified themselves with their mother and other female adults. Education. Children belonged to the community and not just to their biological parents. At the adolescent stage; 13 18 years education was given to the adolescents and intensified at initiation stage. Boys and girls were taught traditional rules, and secrets of the society during initiation. Learning was informal. Knowledge was communicated through songs, stories and riddles among other forms of presentations. All adults acted as parents to the young ones. Socialisation. Men were socialized to be superior, while women were socialized to accept their subordinate position and role. Everyone knew and accepted what he/she was culturally supposed to do. Division of labour was based on sex. In the African communities, despite their differences, there were many common customary roles, rules, regulations, taboos and beliefs that governed the practices related to male female relationships from early childhood to old age. These traditional African practices relating to male female relationships existed at various levels. In all of them, man held superior positions when compared to those of women. ----- 400 # Age. Old women and men were accorded respect. They were consulted for advice and counsel. Kinship system was emphasized. e. Christian teaching on male- female relationships. We learn that the husband is the head of the house and should love his wife like Christ loved the church. Once a wife is loved, she should submit to her husband. We also learn that both male and female are equal and co creators with God. Adam and Eve were created to complement each other. Likewise men and women should love each other. Jesus taught that each man should have one wife and vice versa. Once married, the husbands body belongs to the wife and hers belong to him. If that is the case, wife and husband should avoid immorality. Males and females are to relate freely. But the youth are to avoid the passions of youth. These are sexual sins. There are no specific chores or duties for either male or female. Relationship between sexes should be governed by love, chastity, respect, self-control, and self- discipline. Parents are to love their children, while children are to obey and honor their parents. Parents are asked to bring up their children in a Godly way. LESSON TWO. CHRISTIAN TEACHING ABOUT HUMAN SEXUALITY Lesson Outcomes. By the end of this lesson, you should a. Outline Christian teaching on responsible sexual behaviour b. Analyse Christian teaching on irresponsible sexual behaviour c. Discuss effects and consequences of irresponsible sexual behaviour ----- 401 # d. Give examples of the effects of irresponsible sexual behaviour Sexual behaviour is part of human behaviour. The Bible gives principles of sexual behaviour in the Ten Commandments. a. Christian teaching on responsible human sexuality. Christianity teaches us about responsible sexual behaviour. Being responsible means that one is exercising self control or self-discipline in matters of sexual behaviour. Self-discipline is necessary when we have a relationship with the opposite sex (Read, 1 Cor.7: 9 1 Peter 5:8). It is called responsible sexual behaviour, which is obedience to Gods commands. Christians promote healthy social relationship between boys and girls, men and women, and husbands and wives. Responsible sex is between male and female. Sexual intercourse is allowed only between married couples (1 Cor.7: 3 5). Married couples are obliged to be sexually faithful to one another (Heb.13: 4) adultery is condemned (exodus 25:14). Relationship between a husband / wife should be one of respect faithfulness, love, care, mercy, submission, tolerance, and forgiveness b. Christian teaching on irresponsible sexual behaviour. There are many irresponsible sexual behaviours. They include among others all acts and forms of: perversion, misuse, and abuse of sex, incest, rape, fornication, adultery, homosexuality, lesbianism or gay, prostitution, concubine, masturbation, bestiality and child marriages among others. These irresponsible sexual behaviours are against Gods will for ----- 402 # humanity. Christians are to shun irresponsible sexual behaviour. This is because their bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit. Thus whatever Christians do with their bodies, it should be for the glory of God. Let us now discuss in brief some of the irresponsible sexual behaviour; beginning with (i) Incest, which is a sexual relationship between people who are closely related by blood. For example, sex between a brother/sister, father / daughter. Incest is condemned in the Bible. It was punishable by death in the Old Testament. Read Leviticus 18:6 8. ii) Rape. Rape cannot be justified and it is condemned in The Bible. Rape is an act of forcing another person to have sexual intercourse without his or her consent. It is sexual violence and a crime against humanity. It is also a denial, and a violation of human rights of the victims who are sexually assaulted. Victims of rape include boys, men, girls, women, and babies especially girls. Rape is an expression of hatred toward the opposite sex. In traditional African society rape was abhorred and culprits were punished by death. In Kenya rape is punishable by 20 years imprisonment. Indecent assaults or sexual abuses such as touching a person of the opposite sex without their permission or use of vulgar language are both punishable by up to 5 years imprisonment. iii. Fornication. This is consensual sexual intercourse between unmarried people. It is condemned by ----- 403 # both African and Christian teachings and punishment in African traditional society was by either payment of fines, stoning, and ritual cleansing. In the Old Testament, men were forced to marry the girl. Jesus said that fornication was due to peoples evil thoughts. Abstinence for the youth is encouraged and preached. Why do the youth engage in pre marital sex? There are several reasons. Some of them are: sexual curiosity, proving manhood, human weakness, lack of self control, testing fertility, fear of being jilted / rejected; commercial sex for money; copying acts in the print and electronic media. Others reasons are frustrations, drug abuse, bribe to get a job, and permissiveness in the society. iv. Adultery is committed by adults who have extra marital affairs; between married partner and another party. Adultery is having sex outside marriage with a person with whom one is not married to. Adultery is caused by lack of self control, sexual dissatisfaction, long periods of wife and husband separation, sexual dysfunction and vengeance by an initially faithful spouse who wants to be even with the unfaithful spouse. v. Prostitution. This is the practice of giving sexual pleasure for money or other material benefits. A prostitute can either be male or female. Prostitutes are referred to as commercial sex workers. Why is there prostitution? There are factors leading to prostitution. These are economic reasons such as ----- 404 # unemployment, poverty, rejection of a girl at home, drug abuse, stress, anger, anxiety, frustrations in the family and pornography. The church condemns prostitution because it defiles the body, which is a temple of the Holy Spirit. Its sexual immorality. Read Gal 5: 19 21. vi. Homosexuality/ Gay/ Lesbianism. This is sex between people of the same sex for example; man and man (homosexuality), woman and woman (lesbianism). Homosexuality is a common practice in modern world. It is also a church problem. The Anglican Church in USA, and Canada have accepted homosexuality. The Anglican Church has gay bishops. African Anglican churches are opposing this practice. What makes people prefer sex with the same sex? The Christian view is that homosexuality is a sign of a lack of Christian moral values. It may also be due to confinement in a prison and permissiveness in society. If it is allowed to continue, it shall disintegrate traditional African values. Because of its threat to Gods people, the Church condemns homosexuality. Other reasons for condemning it is because (1) God created a male and a female. Read, Genesis 1:28. Two, sex is sacred. Homosexuality is an unnatural relationship, which lowers human dignity. It does not provide sexual fulfillment (as traditionally). Homosexuality is illegal in Kenya. vii. Sexually transmitted Diseases (STDs). There are many diseases passed from one person to the other ----- 405 # through sex. These are gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes genitalis is, hepatitis B, clamydia, trichonomiasis, HIV/AIDS. Lets discuss them one by one. HIV / AIDS. This is human immune deficiency virus (HIV) that causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) condition. Syndrome refers to many symptoms. HIV is transmitted largely through sex with an infected partner; through blood transfusion; sharing sharp objects with infected persons; and from an infected mother to the unborn child. The HIV virus destroys the white blood cells, and weakens the body s immune system. When the body is weak, it is not able to fight, and defend itself against infections. Persons with the virus are vulnerable and susceptible to opportunistic infections. The signs / symptoms of AIDS are manifestations of symptoms of the opportunistic infections. Some symptoms include persistent coughs, loss of weight, oral thrush, loss of appetite, and diarrhoea. Churches encourage Christians to be compassionate to HIV/AIDS affected people, and to support the infected and the affected individuals like the orphans, widows, and widowers. It also teaches against sexual immorality and against all forms of discrimination. Gonorrhea is caused by a bacterium called Neisseria gonorrhea. Its symptoms appear a4 days after infection. Its symptoms are burning sensation when passing urine; pain or discomfort in the genitals; sticky discharge or pus in the vagina or through the urethra. The good news is that Gonorrhea is curable ----- 406 # if treated early. Syphilis. Primary syphilis may show up in the form of a sore or a wound in the genitals a few days after infection. The wound heals by itself without treatment after some time. Syphilis infection may take several years about 7 years before its symptoms re appear. The symptoms of syphilis are a painless sore or pimple on the mans penis or womans vulva; and swelling of the glands in the groin. Other symptoms, which may appear later, are skin rashes, and sores either in the face armpits, under breasts, mouth or throat. Herpes genital is a sexual disease caused by a virus. It creates wounds in the genitals. A pregnant woman can transmit the infection to her newborn baby during delivery. This disease can be controlled although there is not an effective treatment. Hepatitis B virus causes Hepatitis B. It is transmitted through sex, injections by unsterilized needles and contact with contaminated blood. The infection does not show on the genitals. The signs and symptoms of Hepatitis B include yellowness of the eyes (jaundice) due to liver damage and pain around the upper abdomen. c. The effects of irresponsible sexual behaviour. There are many effects of irresponsible sexual behaviour. They include among others HIV / AIDS, sexually transmitted infections (STI), abortion; family separations and divorces, deaths, unplanned ----- 407 # pregnancies; children living in the streets; school drop outs and psychological problems. i. Effects of incest. These are many. One, incest undermines the healthy relationships between members of a family as it brings shame and guilt among the parties involved. Two, incest destroys relationships within the family and can lead to breaking up of a marriage. Three, incest destroys self-esteem, self respect, and dignity of the victim. We find that abused boys and girls end up having problems when trying to establish healthy relationship with members of the opposite sex. Four, incest can lead to pregnancy, and abortion. And as you have read in the newspapers, it can lead to infections with sexually transmitted diseases (S.T.I.s) and HIV / AIDS. As I write, a father was jailed for life for raping his daughter and infecting her with HIV/AIDS virus. ii. Effects of Rape. This crime has very serious consequences and harmful effects on the victim. Rape may result in pregnancy and can led to physical, psychological, social, and spiritual side effects. The victim may suffer (1) serious physical injuries and (2) may contract both the STIs, and HIV / AIDs. The victim is traumatized, and ashamed of self. The victim suffers from guilt, loneliness, humiliation, posttraumatic stress disorders, and depression among others psychological manifestations. Young rape victims in particular may loose trust in the opposite sex. All these sufferings can lead to suicide and death. ----- 408 # iii. Effects of Fornication. Some of these are having children out of wedlock; feelings of distrust, guilt, and hurt; contracting STIs and HIV/AIDS; loss of self-respect; early and forced marriage and abortion. iv. Effects of Adultery. Christians teach against adultery because it is against Gods commandments and can lead to divorce, abortion, STI, HIV/AIDS, domestic violence, murder (death) and psychological problems. v. Effects of Prostitution are many. It can lead to break up of marriage, and family. It lowers a persons dignity and can lead to unplanned pregnancies, school dropouts; infections such as STIs and HIV /AIDS and improper use of family resources. vi. Effects of homosexuality. It is a threat to procreation. It promotes loose short-term informal relationships and therefore promotes HIV / AIDS. Homosexual couples are prone to HIV/AIDS infections because of having many partners; although this is changing in USA where homosexual couples are being married in churches. vii. Effects of Sexually transmitted diseases HIV / AIDS effects are numerous. They include recurrent illness due to opportunistic infections. There is also stigmatization. Some individuals have feelings of guilt, anger, denial and depression. The sick persons have to look for extra finances to care for their health. They have the burden for medications, and special diet. HIV/AIDs has no cure and leads to death like many other diseases. Parents die and ----- 409 # leave their children as orphans. Gonorrhea effects are many. The disease damages a womans fallopian tubes leading to infertility; and a mans epidydymis leading to sterility. An infected expectant mother can infect her newborn baby with gonorrhea. The disease may affect the eyes of the unborn child causing blindness. Gonorrhea can also cause inflammation of joints, the heart and liver. Effects of Syphilis are damage to the heart, brain and the nervous system. This disease can lead to madness and death of the victim. If a child is infected while in the womb, or during birth, the brain maybe damaged. The child may have either physical deformities or the infected mother may give stillbirths. Effects Herpes genitals. Infection can cause severe brain damage; cancer of the neck of the womb. If a woman is pregnant, the disease can cause death of the baby. The wounds and sores exposes the sick person to HIV /AIDS infections. Effects of Hepatitis B. This disease damages the liver and may lead to death of the infected person. It has a vaccine, but not treatment. viii. Other consequences of irresponsible sexual behaviours These are death, unplanned pregnancies, children living in the streets, school dropouts and psychological problems related to irresponsible sexual behaviour. These include among others: stress, depression, self pity, withdrawal, aggressiveness, and violence. ----- 410 # Stress is the response of the body and mind to any situation that exerts pressure or makes demands on a person. The intensity or pressure experienced determines the level of stress. Some of the signs of stress are: anxiety, worry, drop in performance, chest pains, mood swings, rebellion, ulcers, heart palpitations, fatigue and guilt feelings. Solutions. To avoid stress, it is suggested that individuals should accept that one is stressed; identify sources of stress, rest, exercise, listening to therapeutic music and talk to a counselor. Depression. This is an acute mental disorder. It is also a state of hopelessness and low spirits. Depression can be mild or severe. It has physical, emotional and behavioural signs and symptoms. Let me caution you that it is only a medical doctor who can know if one has a depression or not. We are told by doctors that signs of a depression are: persistent headaches and chest pains; loss of appetite; too much appetite; loss of memory; insomnia i.e. lack of sleep; weight loss or gain; nervousness and mood swings; low self-confidence; suicidal tendencies and self-pity. Other signs and symptoms are loss of libido (sexual desire); poor performance in school and in work places; hopelessness; loss of interest in ones activities; hypertension and high blood pressure d. Irresponsible social and human behaviour. There are social and human behaviours that are contrary to Christian life. These unacceptable behaviours are abortion, and divorce. ----- 411 # Abortion is termination of pregnancy before the foetus is capable of independent life. There are two types of abortions. One is spontaneous abortion or miscarriage. The other is induced abortion, which is deliberate and illegal in Kenya. Induced abortion has been debated in Kenya. The main question is should abortion be legalized or not. This is because abortion is legal in some European countries. Why do mothers seeking abortion? There are many reasons, which are known only to mothers. These are one, pregnancy due to rape and incest. Two, if the mother believes that the unborn child will be a burden. This may be because the baby is conceived outside wedlock and the mother lacks economic resources to take care of the baby. Another reason maybe that the mother is in school, and she cannot look after the baby and continue with her education. Three, medical personnel may abort a deformed foetus or in order to save the life of the mother if it is in danger. Christians view of abortion as murder (Exodus20: 13). This is because abortion interferes with the mothers body, and destroys the baby. Christian view is that the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. God is the giver of life and He alone has the right to take it away. Abortion carries with it stigma and the effects mentioned above make Christians condemn abortion. e. Effects of irresponsible social and human behaviour. Effects of abortion are infertility, ectopic pregnancy, destruction of a womans body parts; fetal ----- 412 # malformation; risk of the mother bleeding to death and destruction of uterus. Other effects are that the mother may experience in future still births, miscarriages, risk of barrenness; failed abortions leading to deformed babies and psychological problems that we have discussed. These are stress and depression. Revision questions. 1. Explain the T.A. understanding of human sexuality 2. Explain Christian attitudes towards human sexuality 3.

Explain Christian teachings about marriage c. Describe courtship in African Traditional society d. Discuss the traditional African and Christian approaches to marriage preparation e. Explain celibacy as an alternative to marriage a. Definition of marriage. Marriage is a binding legal union between a man and a woman who agree to have a lasting relationship as husband / wife. Marriage partners choose each other. In some cases, senior member of the family and church influence the choice of a marriage partner. When marrying ----- 413 # partners agree to marry, they are joined in church and they become husband and wife. Marriage is thus a covenant in which the partners give themselves to one another. Marriage involves other members of the community hence it is a social and community affair. Marriage is a permanent union. Marriage is a community requirement in which everyone in the community participates. Each person is expected to undergo marriage because it is a rite of passage. Marriage gives a person, a high social status and prestige in the community. Marriage is also a covenant between a man and a woman that should not be broken. Two people are joined in marriage in order to procreate and perpetuate the community. Once married, a couple is allowed to have sexual relationship, and companionship. Marriage is an expression of and fulfillment of mutual love and comfort. It enhance unity; social prestige, and respect in society. Purpose of marriage is sexual fulfillment; cultural and social requirement; obligation to build a family; and procreation although children are a gift from God. Forms of marriages There are many forms of marriages. There is a marriage ceremony organised as a symbol or mark of the union between a man and a woman. These marriages ceremonies are either civil, or religious. The main religious ceremonies are Christian, Islamic, Hindu, and Sikh among others. We also have African customary ceremonies many of which are polygamous. Christianity does not allow polygamous ----- 414 # marriage. Secular approaches to marriage. In the modern world, some people choose not to marry for personal reasons. Some people have children without getting married while others opt to have a marriage without children. Husband and wife are equal. Monogamy is practiced for economic reasons. In some families women are the heads of the family. Choosing a partner is an individual act and not communal. In marriage traditional qualities of a good wife such as industrious, honesty, and hospitality are not considered. The modern society values external beauty, financial status and social status. As a result, there is a high rate of marriage, separation, and divorce. At times young people fail to be married in church. There is no formalization of marriages. These marriages are called Come-we-stay arrangements. Gender issues in marriage. The wife is subordinate to the husband but had rights. Marriage did not end with death of the husband. The wife was inherited by one of her husbands brother. This is widow inheritance / Levirate marriage. She could also refuse to be inherited but remained married to that man even in death. The wife could not marry outside the family because of dowry. There was dowry payment to parents. If a wife died, the man would marry the sister of his dead wife. This is surrogate marriage. Those who did not marry were considered lesser humans. Young people were prepared for marriage ----- 415 # during initiation, which was witnessed in a public ceremony. During marriage, couple makes vows to each other. The ancestors are invoked to bless the marriage. Factors that lead to a stable, healthy and successful marriage People are different and they understand their roles differently. Here am giving you a few suggestions. Discuss with your study companions and come up with other suggestions. One important factor is mutual responsibility by the couple. This occurs if there is mutual consultation with each other in decision-making. Two is forgiveness of each other. Three is good treatment of each other especially with equal respect. Four is sharing scriptures together. Five is giving love and respecting each other. Six is having a faithful sexual relationship and lastly being open and honest. Seven is African traditional qualities of a good wife who is described as: hardworking, fertile, morally upright, generous, kind, obedient, humble, clean, beautiful, polite, warm hearted and hospitable. Eight are the qualities of a good husband, which are described as: being able to provide good leadership in the family. Other qualities are being aggressive, wise, brave, courageous, responsible and good property manager. b. Christian Teaching about Marriage. Christians teach that marriage is sacred and that it is a divine institution, which is ordained God. God started it when he created Adam and Eve. Marriage should therefore be monogamous and permanent as God protects marriages. The woman should submit to the ----- 416 # husband who is told to love the wife as Christ loved the church. Church teaches respect of each other. Marriage is complete even without children as it is between a male and a female. Marriage is not obligatory and it ends when one partner dies. Christians preparation and approach to marriage Christians organise youth seminars, and rallies to teach the youth how to choose marriage partners and how to treat wife / husbands; care for the children; behave towards in laws; acquire wealth (men); and head a family. Youth are taught to avoid sexual intimacy before marriage. Those intending to marry are encouraged to go for pre marital counselling. During counselling, they are informed that love is the most important bond of unity in marriage. Church encourages partners to go for HIV /AIDs test before marriage. Marriage ceremony is conducted in church Choice of a marriage partner There are many ways of identifying a marriage partner. One is arrangement by parents. If not one can make an individual decision and choose a wife or husband. Two is through an intermediary or third party. In African traditional polygamous marriages, the first wife identified a wife for her husband. Girls would be given out to a chief as a gift c. Courtship in African Traditional society (A.T.S). Courtship varied from community to community. Courtship is the period between engagement and wedding ceremony. During courtship premarital sex is ----- 417 # forbidden. Girls and boys dressed with bracelets and rings. Courtship was important in A.T.S. This was because the man and woman who were girls and boys got to know each other better before marriage. It was a period when girls/boys were instructed in family life education. It was also a period for linking the two marrying families. The couple had time to learn about one anothers character, and know their families. It is a symbol (sign) of the girls presence in her home (maternal home). She continues to live with her own people. The families and clan had an opportunity to check if the marrying couple was related and if their clans were acceptable to the parents. Courtship gives time to the two families to negotiate and pay the bride wealth or dowry. Bridal Wealth, dowry, bride price are all expressions of partnership. The family of the man pays dowry to the family of the woman. Some churches disregard bride wealth, while others encourage it. Dowry is paid in different forms. The girls family decides what it wants. Will it be livestock (poultry, pigs, camels, cows, goats, sheep), beer, grain, jewellery and clothes among others. Importance of dowry. It acts as a compensation for the girls labour and seals the marriage covenant. It is a public expression of appreciation for the coming of a new wife/mother into the mans family. It promotes friendship and cements relationship between families. It shows commitment and seriousness ----- 418 # of the future husband. After dowry payment, the woman belongs to her husband. A ceremony is carried out depending on the community. Bride price payment is accompanied by marriage ceremonies. Lastly dowry helps in maintaining peace Traditional African approaches to marriage preparation. Polygamy is one husband, married to many wives. Polygamy is allowed by the African traditional religion because it occurs if the first wife is barren; ensures that all women have husbands; prevents infertility; provides extra labour in farms. A polygamous man has a higher status because many wives symbolize wealth. Children are important in a marriage because they promote social status of their parents. They cement a bond of unity between husband / wife. They are a source of labour, and wealth. They are heirs to the family wealth They provide security to the family. Divorce is legal dissolution of marriage. Christians allow divorce because of specific grounds. Divorce was rare in African traditional societies. Divorce is granted under circumstances of: adultery, witchcraft, laziness, cruelty and disrespect of wife. In the contemporary society, divorce is sought after or allowed because of: unfaithfulness in marriage or adultery; domestic violence; misuse of family resources; childlessness; in- law interference and alcohol abuse. Legal reasons for divorce ----- 419 # According to the laws of Kenya, divorce is allowed under the following reasons; adultery; if a man deserts his wife for more than 3 years; if a partner becomes insane; and domestic violence for example, physical, and psychological torture. Christian teaching about divorce. Christians discourage divorce because marriage is a permanent status. There is no room for divorce. Church discourages divorce because of its adverse effects. Some denominations allow divorce if there is adultery. God hates divorce. Married couples should remain faithful to each other Effects of divorce are strained relationships, children suffering psychologically, and experiences of rejection. A divorcee faces social stigma, rejection, and isolation. If parents separate, they create single parent families. These families suffer from economic hardships and feelings of failure and inadequacy. e. Celibacy as an alternative to marriage. Celibacy is a Latin word Coelebes meaning bachelor. Why do some people fail to marry? There are many reasons. Some of these are to pursue education leading to delayed marriage; and career demands (workaholic). Other people are discouraged by examples of failed marriages. Other reasons maybe economic independence, poor health, HIV /AIDS, mental illness; parental interference and disappointment from past failed relationships. This happens if parents do not approve a partner. Revision questions ----- 420 # 1. Explain the traditional African understanding of marriage 2, what is the importance of children in traditional African society? 3.what is the Christian teaching about marriage? 4. What is the importance of courtship period in T.As 5. Why are many people opting for celibacy? LESSON FOUR: THE FAMILY Introduction. As society grows and changes, the family grows and changes. As a result, there are several types and practices of the family. In this lesson, we shall discuss the traditional family as it is practiced in the Bible, the traditional African societies and some Christian families. Learning Outcomes. By the end of the topic, the learner should be able to a Explain types of families in society b Analyse traditional African family values and practices c Explain Christians family values and practices d Discuss problems related to family life today e Compare approaches to family by Christians and traditional African society f. Discuss responsible parenthood The family. What is a family? Family is the basic social unit of human society. This basic unit is extended to include relatives bound together by blood, marriage, friendship, and adoption. They are all members of the family. In Kenya, there are many types of families. a. Types of families i. Nuclear family is parents and their children. .It is father, mother, and children. There is an increase of monogamous families or nuclear because of urbanization as rural youth come to towns in search of ----- 421 # white-collar jobs. Migration to cities by people of different tribes has led to pluralism. Education, high cost of living have led to the death of the African culture, which required men and women to marry many partners to produce many children to defend their tribe. Advantages of nuclear families are many. One, the man is able to give undivided attention to one wife and children. Two, there is sharing of mutual love, and peace in the home. Three it is economical to manage one family. Four there is little competition for attention, less strife, quarrels and stress. Five, it is easier to monitor the behaviour of a few children. ii. Polygamous family Father, mothers, children. These type of family have disadvantages in modern Kenya. Modern society is a cash economy. Thus if a man has many wives and children, they may lack basic necessities like food, shelter, education and clothes. iii. Single parent family one parent, and children. Single parent families are created by several circumstances. One is by parents separating. Separation of parents is due to several reasons. These are for example, one partner going to another country and failing to return to his or her country and family. Two, a single family is created by divorce. Divorced parents may decide not to marry again. Three is when one parent refuses to marry. This happens when a girl gets pregnant and the boy does not marry her. Four is because of death of a spouse. The remaining parent may decide not to remarry. Five is when ----- 422 # some mothers decide to have children without marriage. This may not be correct as there is no research to suggest it. Six is imprisonment of one partner for a long time. One parent is left looking after children because one is in jail. iv. Extended family father, mother, children, uncles, aunts, and cousins. This is the common family type in traditional African communities. v. Children led family. This happens when parents die and the 1st born takes care of brothers and sisters including cousins. vi. Grandparent headed family. The HIV/AIDs epidemic has introduced this type of family where grandparents take care of their grandchildren due to the death of both parents especially the mother due to HIV / AIDS disease. This scourge has made many children orphans. In other cases parents go for further studies abroad and leave their children with their parents. b. Traditional African family values and practices. In African societies creation of a family is through marriage, and subsequent procreation. Family is viewed as a sacred institution in African society. The African traditional family includes the dead (ancestors), the unborn children and the living. An African traditional family has obligations and duties. These were (1) offering sacrifices to ancestors, (2) pouring libations; and (3) giving the dead decent burials (4) providing basic needs to their children (5) bringing up children to be morally upright individuals. Further to this, the African traditional family is ----- 423 # responsible for the upbringing, caring, and protection of its children. This is demonstrated by the nuclear family, which provides necessities required to meet and satisfy the economic needs of its members. The African traditional family is expected to participate in communal activities. Work in the family was divided according to age, gender and social status. Each family member worked for its basic needs as well as the welfare of the community. The African family had well-stated and practiced values There were (1) respect for family members (2) providing responsible parenthood, which is the process of bringing up children to become all round or self reliant persons (3) educating children in all aspects of life. Parents and the extended family members helped their children to develop intellectually and cognitively. The family taught children physical skills.

Its practiced with the sick persons knowledge It is involuntary when its practiced against or without the sick persons consent Its done by a) Injecting an overdose of sleeping pills to the sick person b) Switching off life support machine c) Exposing the person with chronic pneumonia to very cold air. Christians view on Euthanasia Christians are opposed to euthanasia for several reasons such as a) Life is sacred, a gift from God and only God can take away human life b) Suffering is part of human life c) Euthanasia is against medical ethos, which demands that doctors and nurses work for the sustenance of human life and alleviation of suffering but not to terminate it. d) Jesus has power over sickness and through his name all sickness are healed e) Accepting euthanasia discourages medical research on vaccines that may cure various diseases. f) Euthanasia discourages patients and makes them to lose hope in life. They may feel unwanted and rejected. Blood transfusion - Its the process of injecting a persons blood into another person through his/her veins. The giver is a donor the receiver is a recipient. Reasons for blood transfusion 1. When a person is suffering from acute anemia (little blood in the body) low blood level. ----- 487 # 2. To restore blood lost during fatal accidents, wars, or childbirth 3. To maintain blood levels for patients undergoing major operations 4. To correct the low haemoglobin level of some patients 5 Blood has to be screened for any diseases, and then kept in blood bank after determining the blood group. The transfusion should be in a hygienic way. The equipment used should be sterilized 6. Donors should not be below 16 years or above 65 years Alternatives to blood transfusion a) Volume expanders increase fluid levels in the body b) Growth factors intra operative / post operative c) Blood salvage same blood when on surgery is saved then transfused back to the patient Christian view on blood transfusion a) Some Christians believe it is wrong to take blood from a healthy person and transfuse it to another person. b) Blood is life and life cannot be taken from one person to another c) Blood transfusion is essential as it saves life d) Blood transfusion can transmit dangerous diseases like HIV / AIDS and Hepatitis B e) God has given Christians the intelligence and capability to make the right decision and choice Organ transplant - This is the removal of a defective organ and replacing it with a healthy one. Body organs transplanted are kidneys, heart and eyes small intestines, pan crease. - The purpose is to replace the damaged organ of a recipient ----- 488 # - Common transplants are the heart, kidney, eyes from living and the dead (heart) within a span of hours. Eyes can be transplanted from animals. Christian view on organ transplant a) It saves life hence acceptable to some b) Its transferring human life from one person to another c) Its wrong to transplant from animals view by some Christians d) Some support organ transplant by referring to the story of creation of Eve from parts of Adam e) It is part of human beings continuing with the creation work of God. f) It is an expression of love and concern for those suffering as taught by Jesus Christ. Genetic engineering - Its a scientific technique used by scientists to change the biological characteristics of living organisms by deliberately altering the structure of individual genes. - There are genetically modified foods, genetically engineered seeds, test tube babies, human clones, and genes of human insulin. Human cloning This is a form of genetic engineering. Its a creation of genetically identical copy of a human being, human cell. Twins are a form of natural cloning Theres therapeutic cloning and reproductive cloning (human cloning) Therapeutic cloning is when cells from an adult are used in creating medicine or for research Reproduction cloning is the making of human beings More than 90% of cloning has failed. Animals cloned have died young, had cancers or arthritis. ----- 489 # Human cloning is illegal worldwide Genetic cells are used to treat Alzheimer, heart attack, cancer Test tube babies are different from human cloning. Test tube babies are where the egg and sperm is fused together outside the body. In cloning, a needle like device is used to draw out the cells from an embryo, then preserved using chemicals, then put in a womb/uterus to grow. Some do not need a sperm cell, they use other body cells for fertilization. Reasons for advocating human cloning Can clone people whose genetic composition is of a genius, people with special abilities or talents Can be able to bring, revive back great extinct characteristics. Those who support it believes it can reduce immorality Reasons against human cloning 1. God is the sole creator. Cloning takes the place of God. 2. It de humanizes human beings purpose of human reproduction 3. It destroys uniqueness of each individual (Cloning is an exact copy) 4. It can be abused and used to create antisocial people (rapists, thieves) 5. May create deformed people 6. Its un-ethical, immoral experiment. Its destruction of the embryo hence abortion 7. 95% of clones have failed (animal) most animals died 8. Its illegal 9. Closed animals died of cancer, had arthritis, deformities and an early death 10. Cloning may bring a destructive copy of humans Advantages of genetic engineering ----- 490 # 1. Implanting genes that are diseases free in people, plant and animals could prevent diseases. 2. Genetic crops yield more 3. Helps to determine the biological parent in case of dispute on babies (DNA) 4.

Human activity accelerates creation of deserts. Causes of deserts 1. Natural a) Persistent rains in a semi arid area b) Exposure of an area to very high, very cold temperatures c) Inadequate rainfall for a long period of time 2. Human Human activities that lead to desertification are (i) Cutting down of trees (deforestation) for land use such as building, industries, and not replacing them. (ii) Use of water from wells to irrigate land. Its harmful especially salty water salt on soil salination is toxic to soils. (iii) Incorrect use of pesticides and fertilizers destroy soil nutrients. (iv) Industrialization industries emit carbon dioxide (CO2) leading to formation of acid rain, which leads to unproductive land hence desertification (v) Overgrazing especially among the pastoralist communities (vi) Poor farming methods like cultivation on riverbanks and slopes, which causes soil erosion, leading to desertification.

Chastity is a virtue. All forms of irresponsible sexual behavior are condemned. Q3. In what ways is sex abused in Kenya? By practicing fornication/sex before marriage. Adultery sex outside marriage Through prostitution By practicing bestiality Through homosexuality/lesbianism/gayism Incest Rape/defilement of minors Masturbation Pornographic literature using of technological devices in sex Q4. Why do you think minors are defiled or sexually abused in Kenya daily? Lack of self-control among some men. Drugs and drug abuse. Permissiveness in society. Influence from the mass media. Mental illness mad people. Erosion of the African culture/moral values Devil worship/strange cults/false religion. Breakdown of religion values. ----- 501 # Irresponsible parenthood. Indecent dressing. Leniency of the Law/no punishment for criminal. Idleness Poverty Responsible Sexual Behaviour Q 5. What is the Christian teaching on responsible sexual behavior? Responsible sex is between male and female. Sexual intercourse is allowed between married people. Faithfulness is a virtue in this: Both partners must avoid adultery.

Building and counseling criminals. Teaching the society the importance of keeping peace. Condemning evil and evildoers. Q2. Why should Christians take part in voting? They belong to the society and leadership affects them. It is a God-given duty. In order to choose righteous leaders who will encourage values/virtues. In order to help reduce bribery and corruption and other vices in the society. CHAPTER 10 CHRISTIAN APPROACHES TO SELECTED ISSUES RELATED TO MODERN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND THE ENVIRONMENT Q1. How can modern Christians evaluate scientific and technological discoveries? They should keep in mind that God gave them high-level power of thinking. Discoveries must be used intelligently to solve mans problems. ----- 515 # They should not be used as an insult to God who created all things e.g. in things like plastic surgery, test tube babies etc. Discoveries must be used intelligently to solve mans problems. Discoveries should not erode Christian values by increasing mans trust in scientific and technological production. Acknowledge God as the source of all truth including science. Should help man make moral decision and judgments e.g. effect of alcohol, smoking, etc. Man should not be a slave to scientific discoveries instead he should control it. Q2. Why is the church in Kenya opposed to plastic surgery? It is against Gods plan of old age and death. It is a sign of lack of appreciation to Gods work of creation. It can lead to death if the operation fails. It interferes with Gods image given at birth. May be very expensive. Emphasis on beauty and pleasing which are seen as idolatry. Certain diseases can be transmitted especially where tissues may be detached from a donor with an infectious disease. Can bring about other operations like diseases. Scientists use it to compete with Gods creation. Leads to vices such as pride. It may lead to criminal activities by the victim due to different appearances. It is a sign of lack of faith in Gods power of creation/healing. It is against human dignity. Q3. How have science and technology improved human life? ----- 516 # Modern methods of transport and communication have improved social interaction and faster movements. It has improved efficiency at work where machines are used. Has improved agricultural development hence increasing food production. Irrigation and wealth forecasting have too increased in food production. It has brought better health care through modern medical technology. Human beings are now better placed in terms of security matters by use of radar, alarms and electrical fencing. It has led to the creation of job opportunities through industrial development. Formal education and training has equipped human beings with new skills for survival. Trade has been promoted through the use of computers and the Internet. Q4. What are the consequences of science and technology in our society today? Unemployment is acute in our society today because computers have taken over. There is exploitation of workers by the employers because they want maximum profits. It has caused pollution and air poisoning. It has caused health hazards and accidents in factories, roads etc. Machines have replaced human labour. Families are separated due to employment whereby a mother lives in the rural with children while the father goes to town to work. It has destroyed family relationships and replaced it with individualis -----"}
