National Archive as the store of the country's history

Text

Chief Archivist of the Kenya National Archives, N.W. Fedha (1972) wrote:

The National Archives is really a store of all the history of this country. A country without history is like a tree without roots. But then how can a country hope to preserve its history without a proper National Archives.
