Madaraka Day
Final constitutional review and consultations were held in Nairobi in February 1963 at which agreement was reached for an Internal Self Government to assume office on June 01, 1963 , and full independence six months later. Since then, June 01, 1963 is remembered and celebrated as Madaraka Day. A general election was held in the period May 18-25, 1963 ; out of which the Kenya African National Union led by Mzee Jomo Kenyatta won an overall majority against the Kenya Democratic Union led by Mr. Ronald Gideon Ngala and the African People’s Party led by Mr. Paul Joseph Ngei.

“a handful of comparable documents showing “Republic of Kenya” in use ten months before it became part of their constitution.”

From early in 1963, Most everybody knew the type of government they would be associated with. I find plausible that an agency of the government would begin using the new stationary sometime after ______ “Final constitutional review and consultations were held in Nairobi in February 1963”______

Would it be impolite to hope Hillary breaks another arm, or something?

“a handful of comparable documents showing “Republic of Kenya” in use ten months before it became part of their constitution.”

I checked the link you provided and could not find the above sentence nor photos of such documents. Can you tell me where to find them?

By the way, love your name!
