Somalis of Kenya referendum, 1962

Before Kenyan independence, a popular secessionist movement led by Somali ethnic people in the areas of Northern Frontier Districts petitioned Her Majesty's Government not to be included in Kenya. The colonial government decided to hold Kenya's first referendum in 1962 to determine whether residents of the Northern Frontier Districts preferred to join Somalia or remain part of Kenya.^[1]

The result of the referendum showed that 86% of the population in the Northern Frontier Districts wanted to join Somalia, yet the British colonial administration rejected the result and the Northern Frontier Districts remained part of Kenya.^[2][3]
