Mugo Kibiru

Mugo Kibiru or Cege wa Kibiru is a Kikuyu prophet the who lived in the 19th century.
He prophesied the arrival of the white man in Gikuyu land before their arrival. His prophecy was that there would come people who would have bodies like kiengere (a small light coloured frog which lives in water) and whose dress would resemble ciĩuhuruta (butterflies). They would carry magical sticks which would produce fire. Further he prophesied the coming of the railway line that would stretch from one body of water in the east to another in the west and the train which he described as an iron snake that would spit fire. Further this snake would "eat" people and "vomit" them out. He also predicted the coming of the famine that would signal the coming of the strangers with bodies like kiengere.
==The Sacred Tree==

He foretold that a fig tree at Thika, 26 miles north of Nairobi, would wither and die on the day that Kenya gained independence. Kibiru also prophesied that Kenya would become a white man's colony, but that one day white man would return the land to Africans. He foresaw the coming of the railway which he described as an iron snake with many legs, like an earthworm. Kibiru's prophecies prove to be so accurate that for many years the tree at Thika was regarded as sacred. Even the white men took the prophecy seriously, for they built the tree up with earth and put a concrete wall around it so that it would not fall. These measures were doomed to fail. Shortly before Kenya gained independence, the tree was struck by lightning and it began to wither rapidly. By the day Kenya officially became independent, it had decayed completely, fulfilling the prophecy made over seventy years before by Kibiru.
