National Day Celebration – The Kenyan Embassy in India 

NATIONAL DAY 

Envisioning a Colourful Future

Kenya is named after Mount Kenya – the second tallest mountain in Africa. The Kikuyu people, who lived around present-day Mt Kenya, referred to it as Kirinyaga or Kerenyaga, meaning mountain of whiteness because of its snow-capped peak. Once the British claimed the territory around the mountain as their colony, due to their inability to pronounce Kirinyaga, they re-named the country and the mountain as Kenya and Mt Kenya respectively.
