The revised notes now include:
The signature of CBK Governor Dr. Kamau Thugge.
The signature of National Treasury Principal Secretary Dr. Chris Kiptoo.
A print year of 2024.
Enhanced security threads with color-changing effects unique to each denomination.
All other features remain as they were in the 2019 series.
