Britain’s King Charles and his wife Camilla are due to arrive in Kenya on Tuesday for a four-day state visit that is full of symbolism.
The Independent Mirror reported that It was in Kenya in 1952, that his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, learned that she had become monarch following the death of her father King George VI.
Charles’ visit will be his first to a Commonwealth nation since he succeeded her last year and also comes as Kenya marks 60 years of independence from Britain.
Buckingham Palace has said Charles will acknowledge painful aspects of the UK and Kenya’s shared history during his visit from 31 October to 3 November.
