select all the correct answers.
what two developments led to the declaration of a state of emergency in 1952 by the governor of kenya?
mau mau leaders ordering soldiers to shoot british troops on sight
mau mau attacks on individuals and settlements loyal to britain
failure of a 1950 ban to stop the growth of the mau mau rebellion
forced relocation of white settlers into camps guarded by mau mau soldiers
a mau mau coup that took control of the colonial government
The 1952 Kenyan state of emergency was declared due to escalating Mau Mau violence against British-aligned targets and the failure of earlier measures to curb the rebellion. The Mau Mau targeted individuals and settlements loyal to Britain, and a 1950 ban had not slowed their growth. Other options are inaccurate: the Mau Mau did not order shooting British troops on sight as a direct trigger, did not force white settlers into camps, and never seized control of the colonial government via a coup.
