Happy Madaraka Day From Go Places Digital
Madaraka Day is celebrated on 1 June. Madaraka is the Swahili word for ‘power’. It is a public holiday that commemorates the day that Kenya took power when it attained internal self-rule and independence in 1963.
On 1 June 1963, Kenya became a self-governing country when Jomo Kenyatta became the first prime minister. Full independence from British rule followed on 12 December 1963 when Kenya became an independent nation.
This is one of the national holidays created by Article 8 of the Constitution of Kenya 2010.
