(PHOTOS) Final rehearsals at Uhuru garden ahead of Kenyatta's arrival

President Uhuru Kenyatta is expected to preside over his last national fete — 68 days before retirement — as he races to cement his legacy.

The President is juggling completing multibillion-shilling  projects to define his 10-year tenure, while also trying to execute an intricate succession game plan.

By 6am on Wednesday, Kenyans were already streaming into the Uhuru Gardens.

Tunes of special Patriotic Kenyan songs were played as the military marched around the garden.

Kenyans are expected to be entertained with a great set of performances ranging from traditional dances, choral music to contemporary music and Gengetone sound.
