About Meru

Meru is a metropolis in eastern Kenya. It is the headquarters of the Meru County, and the 6th biggest urban centre inside the usa. Meru paperwork a municipal council with a population of 240,900 citizens. Meru Town's first District Commissioner was Edward Butler Horne. The Meru nicknamed him Kangangi, meaning the little wanderer due to his quick stature and the fact that he traveled round Meru plenty as he surveyed the District. This changed into at a time whilst the Meru community lived a reasonably settled existence in ridge-top communities. The City's basis in its present vicinity changed into due to the military obstacles of E. B. Horne's unique camp at Mwitari's dwelling house. In 1912, consistent with Madeleine Laverne Platts, spouse of W. A. F. Platts, Meru's first Assistant District Commissioner.

"Short Horne had laid out a pleasing little golfing direction. 500 neighborhood women were paid to cut the grass with the aid of plucking it out with their fingers. Next to the golfing route stood a large, handsome log residence, in which the door opened to show dust floors on which a big hat-stand stood gaunt and proud inside a pool of water. The City of Meru is linked to Nairobi by using a tarmac avenue named B6, from the south across the east aspect of Mount Kenya, via Embu, or from the northwest around the west and north side of Mount Kenya, thru Nanyuki and Timau.
