Queen Elizabeth II with President Jomo Kenyatta. The Queen returned to Kenya on a number of occasions, during both President Kenyatta and President Moi’s regimes. It is also in Kenya that she learnt of her father’s passing and became the Head of the Royal Family in 1953. "For the first time in the history of the world, a young girl climbed into a tree one day a Princess, and after having what she described as her most thrilling experience, she climbed down from the tree the next day a Queen—God Bless Her," said Prince Philip. Kenya's renowned photojournalist Mohamed Amin, also known as 'Six Camera Mo' captured some of Africa's defining moments. He managed to use his cameras for more than a generation to bring East Africa’s most powerful stories into world view.
