Description
In October 1528 the fleet of Nuno da Cunha sought refuge in Malindi which was freely granted. However when the fleet became pinned against the coast by the north-east monsoon it became imperative that the fleet find a better harbor to winter over until the monsoon ended. He sailed for Mombasa where he was allowed to anchor, but he was insulted by the restrictions placed on him by the Sultan of Mombasa. He resolved to avenge this insult and the Sheik of Malindi, happy to see injury done to his rival, offered troops. Nuno da Cunha, appreciative of his support, offered the rulership of Mombasa to a relative of the Sheik, but he was turned down when the Portuguese proved to be too few in numbers to garrison the town.Actions
