Breaking : October 10 Confirmed As Public Holiday In Kenya #MoiDay

The Cabinet Secretary in charge of the Interior Ministry in Kenya, Fred Matiangi has confirmed, through a notice that Wednesday, 10th October will be a national holiday. This comes after speculation due to a lack of communication on the back of a High Court ruling that reinstated the day as a holiday. The holiday, formerly known as "Moi Day" was scrapped off before being reinstated after a case challenging its removal was lodged.

Below is the official communication;
