The oath was administered by Judiciary Chief Registrar Gladys Shollei and witnessed by Chief Justice Willy Mutunga at 1.00pm.

The colorful ceremony attended by at least 11 Heads of States is under way at the country’s biggest sports facility, Moi International Sport Centre Kasarani.

The swearing in ceremony that has been organised by the Assumption of the office of the President Committee  is constitutionally required to take place no earlier than 10am and no later than 2:00pm.

Accompanied by his wife Margaret, the new president used the Bible that was used by his father in 1963.
