Our history
Kenya is named after a mountain of the same name. The Kikuyu people who lived around present day Mt Kenya referred to it as Kirinyaga or Kerenyaga, meaning ‘mountain of whiteness’ because of its snow capped peak. Mt Kirinyaga which was the main landmark became synonymous with the territory the British later claimed as their colony. However, the name Kenya arose out of the inability of the British to pronounce Kirinyaga correctly.
The mandate of Kenya Embassy Kuwait is to articulate and implement Kenya’s Foreign Policy focused on developing and enhancing Kenya’s bilateral relations with the countries of accreditation. The Mission is accredited to the Kingdom of Bahrain, and the Republic of Lebanon. The Mission endeavors to engage the host countries on the five pillars of the Kenya’s foreign policy.
