The Kenya Advisory Council of Georgia (KDAC-GA) is pleased to invite you to the 2016, Mashujaa Day National Celebrations on Saturday, October 29th, 2016 at the Marietta Hilton Hotel from 6:30pm to 11:00pm.
Mashujaa is Swahili for Hero and Mashujaa Day is a Kenyan National Holiday observed on October 20th to honor all those that contributed towards the struggle for Kenya’s Independence, and it was previously known as Kenyatta Day in honor of Kenya’s first President Jomo Kenyatta who was seen as a Hero by many.
Our Primary Objectives are;
- To develop a World-Class & self-funded Annual Event that recognizes and awards local hero’s while at the same time celebrating our Youth and our National Heritage, for and by the People of Atlanta.
- To make the people of Atlanta, fall in love with Atlanta again by show casing some of the success stories that have come up through Atlanta, and the need to celebrate our successes every year.
On this day we will be recognizing and honoring our local Hero’s here in Atlanta. We will also have a special focus on our Youth who are indeed the future leaders of tomorrow.
We are proud to put together a wonderful, first class event and your presence will greatly enhance this program we look forward to seeing you soon.
It is touted to be the biggest celebration awards event of the year, attracting top dignitaries from the DC Embassy and hundreds of Kenyans from Atlanta and the neighboring states.
Tickets are $60 per person or $100 per couple and can be purchased at www.eventbrite.com/e/mashujaa-day-atlanta-2016-tickets-27744876673

@Ben, if you know we never got those Id's after applying for them you would not be asking for them
@nomatusi you raise a very good point as I have yet to hear of anyone that applied and got their ID. This begs a lot of questions:
1. Why does the Embassy advertise issuance of ID's if they don't issue them?....
Thanks to KDAC for organizing this events. I hope that you will in the same spirit communicate to the Hon Ambassador Githae and our Patriots in the Embassy of the republic of Kenya to consider and socialize the date when they will finally issue Kenyan ID's to the Diaspora in the state of GA like they have gracefully done in other states. As a concerned Kenyan in the Atlanta area, I feel disenfranchised that we have to beg the Embassy to facilitate issuance of Kenyan ID's . Petition please!!
