Today Kenyans celebrate the 54th Madaraka day. It is a milestone in our country’s history for on this day, we celebrate and honour valiant men and women whose contribution to the independence struggle handed us victory in 1963. These men and women paid the ultimate price in blood and sweat.
In trutch, there is a lot to be proud of: Kenya is much freer, more developed and generally, life is better than it was in 1961 when life expectancy was 35 years. A Kenyan today expects to celebrate their 64th birthday. At independence, there were only about 800,000 students in our schools yet that number has shot up to stand at a 10,000,000 registering an enrollment rate.
