Timeline

1922

Ngala was born in 1922 at Gotani in Giriama country.

1923

Ronald Gideon Ngala (1923–1972) was a Kenyan politician who was the leader of the Kenya African Democratic Union political party from its creation in 1960 until its dissolution in 1964.

1929

In 1929 the family moved to Vishakani near Kaloleni, which was to be Ngala's home for the rest of his life.

Ngala attended The Alliance High School and Makerere University College where he gained a teaching diploma.

He worked as a teacher in Kenya's coastal region and later became headmaster of Mbale Secondary School in Taita-Taveta District.

1952

In 1952 he was transferred to Buxton School in Mombasa where he served as the principal.

1957

Ngala began his national career by being elected to the Legislative Council in 1957.

In the 1957 elections to the legislative council, Ngala was elected to represent the Coast Rural constituency.

Following these elections, Ngala, along with Tom Mboya, Oginga Odinga, Lawrence Oguda, Masinde Muliro, Daniel Arap Moi, Benard Mate and James Miumi formed the African Elected Members Organisation (AEMO) and signed a controversial press statement declaring Kenya's Lyttelton constitution on which they had been elected, void.

One of the declarations of AEMO was that none of the African elected members of the legislative council would take any ministerial office.

1960

This constitutional crisis led to the first Lancaster House conference in 1960 at which the African delegation sought a new constitution for Kenya

At the Lancaster House conference, the ban on nationwide African political parties was lifted and the African delegation agreed to form the Kenya African National Union (KANU).

Ngala was appointed to the committee which drafted KANU's constitution and at a meeting held on 14 May 1960, in Kiambu he was elected as the party's treasurer in absentia which he declined having expected to be appointed the chairman.

Daniel Moi also declined the assistant chairman slot.

They later formed KADU.

After the formation of KANU, a number of smaller parties formed which represented the interests of minority tribes.

At a meeting of the leaders of these parties held in Ngong on 25 June 1960, the Kenya African Democratic Union (KADU) was formed with Ngala as its leader, in opposition to KANU.

1961

At the 1961 legislative council elections KADU led by Ngala won 11 seats to KANU's 19, however, the leaders of KANU refused to form any government until Jomo Kenyatta was released from house arrest.

KADU under Ngala agreed to form a government and Ngala became Leader of Government Business and later Chief Minister.

Jomo Kenyatta was released from house arrest later in 1961 and became president of KANU.

1963

Under Kenyatta's leadership KANU won 83 of the 129 seats in the national assembly at the 1963 elections.

1964

On 12 November 1964 six key members of KADU crossed the floor to KANU.

The leaders of KADU, including Ronald Ngala, Masinda Muliro and Daniel Arap Moi decided to dissolve KADU and join KANU.

Ronald Ngala was made Minister of Cooperatives and Social Services in the Kenyatta government.

1966

He went on to become one of KANU’s vice-presidents at the 1966 Limuru Conference in which Oginga Odinga was ejected from KANU.

1972

Ngala remained active in the government until he died in a road accident in 1972.

The circumstances of Ngala's death in 1972 were suspicious, but nobody was arrested or charged, and there was no inquiry.

He was married to Esther Mwenda Ngala, with whom they had 12 children, among them his son Noah Katana Ngala, a former cabinet minister.
