Harambee Stars captain Victor Wanyama took to social media to wish Kenyans a happy Jamhuri day.
The Kenyan superstar was part of Tottenham Hotspur which lost 1-0 to Manchester United on Sunday, and missed a golden opportunity to equalise early in the second half.
Wanyama posted this tweet that read: "Happy Jamhuri day to my fellow countrymen,let's all continue to work together and make our country proud.#KenyaAt53"
