The Anthem and Languages of Kenya
"Ee Mungu Nguvu Yetu" (Oh God of All Creation)
The Kenyan national anthem was first sung at independence in 1963. It is a prayer for peace, unity, and prosperity. The anthem is unique because it was composed in both Swahili and English, reflecting Kenya's linguistic diversity.
Jambo --> Hello Asente --> Thank you
Swahili: Ee Mungu nguvu yetu, Ilete baraka kwetu English: Oh God of all creation, Bless this our land and nation.
The Colonial Heritage of Kenya
The British Presence
Independance
Kenya was a British colony from 1895 to 1963. During this time, British settlers controlled the fertile lands, and local people were forced to work on plantations. Railways were built, connecting the coast to the interior, but for the benefit of the British.
The Mau Mau Uprising (1952-1960) was a key event in Kenya's fight for freedom. After years of struggle, Kenya gained independence on December 12, 1963, with Jomo Kenyatta becoming the first president.
The Colonial Legacy in Everyday Life
Stamps and Currencies
British Heritage
During British rule, Kenyan stamps and coins featured British monarchs like Queen Elizabeth II. After independence in 1963, the Kenyan Shilling replaced the East African Shilling, showcasing local leaders and cultural symbols.
British influence remains visible in education (English as a key language), the legal system (based on British common law), and architecture (colonial-era buildings in Nairobi and Mombasa).
Kenya and Britain: Past and Present
Modern Relations
Colonial Challenges Today
The UK is one of Kenya’s biggest trade partners for tea, coffee, and flowers. Many Kenyans also study or work in the UK, maintaining strong ties between the countries.
Issues like unequal land ownership and economic disparities persist, but Kenya has reclaimed its identity through cultural pride and development.
