- Gikuyu,_Embu,_and_Meru_Association abstract "The Gikuyu, Embu, and Meru Association (GEMA), was an organisation in Kenya created to advance the social and political needs of peoples descended from the mythological figure Mumbi: the Gikuyu, Embu, and Meru peoples. It was founded in 1971, with an economic arm, GEMA Holdings.GEMA was formally registered by Attorney General Charles Njonjo by the instructions of president Jomo Kenyatta. Njonjo himself became opponent of the group and in 1976 charged some of its members, including Kihika Kimani and Njenga Karume, with treason: the order was soon rejected by the president, Jomo Kenyatta. Other prominent GEMA figures included Njoroge Mungai.[citation needed]GEMA was formally banned in 1980, although it is believed to have continued to function as Agriculutural and Industrial Holdings Ltd. During its existence in the 1970s it was widely associated with moves to change the constitution of Kenya in an attempt to prevent the, then Vice-President, Daniel arap Moi, gaining automatic succession if the president became indisposed.[citation needed]Since 2003 there have been several attempts to revive the organisation, with two particular groups, MEGA and Transcentury, widely perceived to have roots in the old GEMA association.[citation needed] Current chairman is retired bishop Lawi Imathiu.[citation needed]".
