“When you called the nation to action the response from Kenyans was unprecedented. Every Kenyan stepped forward,” he said.
“As you mobilise the government to these guidelines. We are confident that under your leadership the government will take the necessary decision to ensure that we mitigate the effects of this pandemic,” he said.

President Uhuru Kenyatta on Monday led Kenyans in celebrating 57th Madaraka Day.
This is a national holiday celebrated every 1 June of every year in Kenya.
It commemorates the day in 1963 that Kenya attained independent self-governance after decades as a British Colony.
“As we stand on the sacrifice of those who came before us, let us be prepared to make sacrifices for our children who come after us and the nation we call home,” he said this via Twitter on Monday.
For the first time in history, Kenyans will celebrate Madaraka day virtually.
