The Ministry of Interior has announced that the 2025 Madaraka Day celebration will be held at the Raila Odinga stadium in Homa Bay County.

Speaking during the inspection of the Stadium on Thursday, February 27, the interior Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo said that the move to select Homa Bay as the host aligns with President William Ruto's initiative to celebrate national holidays across the country.

According to the ministry, the theme of this year's Madaraka Day Celebration will be  'Blue Economy and Maritime Affairs'.

Madaraka Day is a national holiday in Kenya that celebrates the country's attainment of internal self-rule from Britain in 1963.
