Only 2,000 guests will be allowed to attend this year's Mashujaa Day celebrations on October 20 at the Wang’uru Stadium in Mwea, Kirinyaga County.

Interior Principal Secretary Karanja Kibicho said the number has been reduced from 15,000 to 2,000 due to Covid-19 threat. Speaking at General Kassam Stadium in Kianyaga in Gichugu Constituency during a leaders' meeting, Kibicho said President Uhuru Kenyatta will be the guest of honour during the celebration to be attended by other heads of state and dignitaries.
