Former Attorney General Charles Njonjo on Wednesday celebrated his 99th birthday.

Njonjo, who was the first post-independence AG, was a central player in Kenya’s politics during founding President Jomo Kenyatta’s regime. He also served under former President Daniel arap Moi but fell from grace in 1983.

Kenyatta appointed Njonjo to replace A.M.F Webb as AG in 1963.

He was accused of plotting to succeed Kenyatta when he died. This placed him at odds with other contenders from Central Kenya who felt they were better suited for the job.

During the failed coup against Moi in August 1982, some soldiers mainly from the Kenya Airforce were implicated. Njonjo’s name also featured.
