The Assassination of Waruhiu was the murder of Kenyan Chief Waruhiu by Mau Mau. The Chief was a supporter of British presence in Kenya and was shot in his car; at his funeral, Governor Evelyn Baring called him "a great man, a great African and a great citizen of Kenya, who met his death in the service of his own people and his Government." His death helped lead to the declaration of a State of Emergency in Kenya.
