Some of Self-styled Field Marshal John Okello's 600-strong peasant army while the island runs red with the blood of between 12,000 and 13,000 victims. Kenya's renowned photojournalist Mohamed Amin, also known as 'Six Camera Mo' was best known as a great frontline photojournalist, but he spent more time documenting his country’s beauty, wildlife, culture, people and leaders than anything else. Mo managed to use his cameras for more than a generation to bring East Africa’s most powerful stories into world view.
