President Kenyatta graced the occasion, which is celebrated by millions of girl guides and girl scouts worldwide to celebrate the shared birthday of Lord Baden Powell and his wife Olave.

The First Lady on her end said that it is deeply moving to see how the girl guide movement has impacted millions of girls and women indiscriminately across Kenya. 

“It is encouraging to see people coming together in the name of a common and noble cause that this movement holds true ” she added

She also thanked the staff and all partners for their tireless and dedicated passion to ensure this amazing work of the movement continues to reach and empower millions of girls, adolescents and women across the county.
