Kenya Independence Day 2021

Google Dooles 20.12.2021 22:00  Date: December 12, 2021 Today’s Doodle celebrates Kenya’s Independence Day, which honours not one but two historic anniversaries. The first commemorates the East African nation’s declaration of freedom in 1963 while the second honours Kenya’s official establishment as a jamhuri one year later. In recognition of the latter anniversary, today is also known as Jamhuri Day and serves as an opportunity for Kenyans to reflect on their storied history and rich cultural heritage. Festivities are typically characterised by Kenyan feasts, which include popular regional dishes such as samosas and irio . In addition to Kenyan cuisine, traditional celebrations include singing and dancing as well as formal events that liven the whole country. Some residents on the more adventurous side, even celebrate independence by bungee jumping off bridges! These varied Jamhuri Day celebrations unify Kenyans from all walks of life around a shared appreciation of independence and heritage. Hongera Kenya! Happy Independence Day! Location: Tags: , , , ,
