2. The Kenya Defence Forces Act
The Kenya Defence Forces Act, 2012, is the primary legislation governing the recruitment and service of personnel in the KDF. It outlines the general requirements for joining the KDF, but it does not explicitly specify a height requirement.
Section 10 of the Kenya Defence Forces Act, 2012 outlines the general requirements for recruitment into the KDF. These include:
Being a Kenyan citizen
Being of good character
Being physically and mentally fit
Meeting the prescribed educational qualifications
Meeting the prescribed age requirements
Meeting the prescribed medical standards
Section 11 of the Kenya Defence Forces Act, 2012 provides the Defence Council with the power to make regulations regarding the recruitment and training of KDF personnel. These regulations may include specific requirements, such as height, but they are not publicly available.
The Kenya Defence Forces Act, 2012 does not explicitly state a height requirement for joining the KDF. However, it is likely that the KDF has internal regulations or guidelines that specify height requirements for different roles within the force. These regulations are not publicly available.
