The President, National Flag & Coat of Arms The President The Executive power is held by the President who is elected by direct popular vote for 5 years. The winning candidate in Presidential elections must receive no less that 25% of the votes in at least five of Kenya’s eight Provinces. The current President H.E. Mr. Mwai Kibaki came into office in December, 2002, and is serving his second term following the 2007 Presidential elections. In 2008, the Kenya Constitution was amended to provide for a Coalition Government and create the post of Prime Minister. The Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga is the current Prime Minister. The Kenyan National Flag Three main colours in stripes of equal width in black, red and green. These colours running from top to bottom are separated by narrow white stripes, with a symmetrical shield and white spears superimposed centrally. The shield of the warrior represents Kenya’s pride and tradition. The colours: Black represents the people of Kenya. Red represents the blood shed in the fight for independence. Green represents the fertility of the land. White represents peace. The Kenyan Coat of Arms The coat of arms of Kenya features two lions holding Maasai spears and a shield. The shield contains the national colours. The shield and lions stand on a silhouette of Mount Kenya containing in the foreground examples of Kenya’s agricultural produce - coffee, pyrethrum, sisal, tea, maize and pineapples. The coat of arms is supported by scrolls with the word HARAMBEE - pulling together.
