Turns out that's the right question to ask. It's been pointed out that the Republic of Kenya came into existence on 12 December 1964. However, it issued this certification on 17 February 1964. Oops.
Meanwhile, Orly Queen of Birfitania is reportedly headed for the UK to check the Kenyan colonial records for Book 44B, page 5733. Lot's of luck with that!
I forecast this one has a short half-life. Not as short as that one with the taunt in the EXIF. But short, nonetheless.
Kenya became an independent country (Republic of Kenya) on Dec. 12, 1963.
Oops, indeed. Kenya became independent on Dec. 12, 1963.
LOL The certification from Kenya was just printed on that day. His birth on the document is listed as Aug 4th 61. It is looking pretty legit, for a photo of a document that is.
Authentication is really needed, perhaps that is why Orly is headed to England where Originals will be.
” It’s been pointed out that the Republic of Kenya came into existence on 12 December 1964.”
Yes, but The Republic of Kenya declared it’s independence in 1963 and acted independantly from that point on.
Oops.
