Kenya's Coat of Arms (Lions or Dragons?)
Listers, Interesting to know yesterday from Madam Wanjauabout the Dragons in place of the lions, i had never envisioned such , i bet now more than ever we have to be careful to make the difference , it would be sad to see the dragon court of arms on any government institutions website or letterhead. Time to make difference between the Lions and the Dragons. Enjoy the rest of the EA IGF. Gideon. On Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 12:23 AM, <[email protected]>wrote:
