<p>Thomas Joseph Odhiambo Mboya is a former student of Ruskin College. Mboya was born in Kenya and came to study at Ruskin on a TUC scholarship, 1955-6. Mboya returned to Kenya to contest and win a seat in the Kenyan parliament when it was still an English colony. Mboya organized the Airlift Africa movement, through which African students went to study at American universities. Mboya went on to hold positions in the first cabinet after Kenya's independence in 1963, firstly as minister for justice and constitutional affairs and then as minister for economic planning and development. He was assassinated in 1969. Nobody has ever been able to prove who ordered the killing.</p>
