The answer is Yes.
Kenyan military officers can register as voters and cast ballots in national elections. The Defence Forces Code of Conduct and Ethics, however, prohibits them from actively participating in political campaigns, canvassing for votes, or holding public office. They must also maintain strict political neutrality.
