The Republic was declared between Oct and Dec. 1963. The date you are using is the date the United Kingdom recognized that independence. The declaration came a year earlier.

This point has been debunked several times.

They declared independence a year earlier, drafted a constitution that stated themselves a sovereign Republic.

"not declared" by whom???? The Kenyans declared themselves the Republic of Kenya in December 1963 in their Constitution which was adopted then, and would have been reflected in subsequent dealings.

The British were the ones who did not recognize [declare] Kenya an independent republic until 1964 -- but so what??? The Brits after 1963 were not in charge of Kenya's paperwork -- the Republic of Kenya was.
