[PHOTOS] All set for 59th edition of Madaraka Day celebrations

Yesterday, Interior Principal Secretary (PS) Karanja Kibicho said about 30,000 people are expected to attend the event. All the attendees are required to wear face masks, owing to the rise in number of Covid-19 cases reported in the country of late.

"There are no special invitation cards for anyone. Everyone is invited; a small security check will be done on all attendees," he said in an interview with Citizen.  

PS Kibicho added that today's event will be special in that the Kenya Defence Forces will be bidding farewell to their commander-in-chief.

“We will also be showcasing military hardware because the KDF needs to say goodbye to the Commander-in-Chief because it will probably be the last day he will conduct a national day.
