The Role of Jamhuri Day in Strengthening Kenyan National Pride
Jamhuri Day, celebrated annually on December 12th, is a cornerstone of Kenya’s national identity. It marks the historic milestones of Kenya’s independence from British colonial rule in 1963 and its formal establishment as a republic in 1964. While it is a day of celebration, Jamhuri Day also provides a moment for reflection on the nation’s journey, its cultural diversity, and its aspirations for the future.
