State House (Kenya)
State House is the official residence of the President of Kenya. It was the residence of the Prime Minister of Kenya from independence until Kenya (Dec 12 1963) transformed into a republic (Dec 12 1964). As the Prime Minister's position was abolished, it has been the official resident of the President since then.
==History==
Before the construction of Government House Nairobi, the first Governor's resident was at Government House Mombasa constructed in 1879. The Government House Nairobi, now State House was built in 1907 in Nairobi to serve as the official residence of the Governor of British East Africa when Kenya was a British Colony. The governor would conduct his official functions at the old Provincial Commissioner's office (now a national monument) next to Nyayo House and then retire to Government House for the day.〔 It was designed by the British architect Herbert Baker.
After independence, Government House was renamed State House. Although it remained the official residence of the Head of State, in practice it became an administrative or operational office occasionally providing accommodation to visiting State guests and receptions on National Days. This scenario has prevailed to-date with the late Mzee Jomo Kenyatta and President Moi preferring private residence as opposed to living in State House.
