Jamhuri Day is a national holiday in Kenya and is celebrated on December 12th. It’s Kenya’s Independence Day. (Jamhuri means “republic” in the Swahili language.)
On December 12th, 1963 Kenya became an independent country. This was six months after gaining internal self-rule (June 1st, 1963, or what is know is as Madarka Day (“power” in Swahili)) from the United Kingdom of Great Britain.
Uhuru 1963, seen on the above featured postage stamp from Kenya, is “freedom” (or freedom 1963), in Swahili.
Kenya later became an republic (Kenya Republic) on or about December 12th, 1964.
Question: is Barack Hussein Obama II celebrating Jamhuri Day?
