List of archbishops of the Anglican Church of Kenya

This is a list of the Archbishops and Primates of the Anglican Church of Kenya. The Anglican presence in Kenya was initially overseen by the Church of England through the Diocese of Mauritius, established in 1854, and later through the Diocese of Eastern Equatorial Africa, created in 1884. As the Anglican Church grew, the Church of the province of East Africa was established in 1960, uniting the dioceses of Kenya and Tanganyika (now Tanzania). In 1970, the province was divided, leading to the formation of the Church of the province of Kenya and the Church of the province of Tanzania. In 1998, the Church of the province of Kenya was renamed the Anglican Church of Kenya to reflect its national identity. The current Archbishop and Primate of the Anglican Church of Kenya also serves as the bishop of the Diocese of All Saints' Cathedral in Nairobi, the primatial see of the province.
