The wider world had entered a new epoch and thats why we got independence. If it was a matter of Kyuks fighting for it and gaining it for Kenya, then Britain would still have territories that had no Mau-Mau-like movements like Tz or Botswana for example. These had no violent movements seeking independence yet Tz got theirs even before us for example.
Very few African countries truly fought for independence and gained it through arms. Zimbabwe is one such country

The Mau Mau guerrilla war had all the ingredients of a stirring military drama, and there are several publications that explore various aspects of the fighting. General Sir Gerald Lathbury, oversaw the deployment of three British battalions, four battalions of King’s African Rifles, the Kenya Regiment, an artillery battery, and an armored car squadron—all with the support of Royal Air Force squadrons of Vampire jets and heavy bombers. If that’s not a war to you then i don’t know which nonsensical theory you want us believe.
