His Excellency President Uhuru Kenyatta is received by Defence Cabinet Secretary Amb Monica Juma and Chief of the Kenya Defence Forces General Robert Kibochi at the Kenya Navy Base, Manda Bay in Lamu County for the Presidential and Regimental Colour Presentation Ceremony.
The history of the military ritual is as old as the formation of armies in the 17th Century. The event is significant for every unit in the Kenyan military and it is recorded in the unit’s history.
At Kenya’s independence, the presidential and regimental colours replaced the colonial Queen’s and Regimental Colours.
Both presidential and regimental colours are carried by a commissioned officer and escorted by two armed senior non-commissioned officers.
