Jamhuri Day is Kenya's most important national holiday, celebrating both the date the country established independence in 1963 and the date it became a republic in 1964. 'Jamhuri' is the Swahili word for 'Republic'. The day is marked by political speeches that often outline the government's economic agenda for the coming year, making it relevant for macro-economic forecasting in East Africa.
Fixed annual public holiday observed on December 12th in Kenya.
