“Happy birthday, Your Excellency Uhuru Kenyatta, CGH. I remain grateful for the opportunity to have served under your leadership and to have contributed to the shared vision of transformation and service delivery to our fellow citizens. Wishing you good health and many happy returns,” Matiang’i wrote.
Matiang’i, who was one of the key figures in Kenyatta’s administration, served in various senior roles including Cabinet Secretary for Education and later for Interior.
His strong working relationship with the former Head of State was often cited as a reflection of Kenyatta’s trust in his ability to deliver on government priorities.

As Kenyatta marks his 64th birthday, the outpouring of goodwill from former colleagues like Matiang’i and citizens alike underscores his enduring influence in Kenya’s political and public life.
