The Mau Mau Freedom Fighters have demanded 364 trillion Kenyan shillings (approximately $2.2 trillion) in reparations from Britain. They are also demanding recognition and justice for the veterans who suffered. The Mau Mau have made it clear that this is not just about money but about acknowledging the trauma. The reparations are for historical harms including torture, imprisonment, and death for standing against the colonial regime in order for fight for Kenya’s independence. The British government has given minor apologies to the Mau Mau and provided minimal compensation, but the Mau Mau say that the gesture does not compare to the size of the damage done.
