While looking for something else, I came upon a news story from
Zimbabwe detailing the political troubles there in 2002. In one of the
stories there is a reference to a violation of the Armorials Act:

"The party also ordered Patrick Chinamasa, the Minister of Justice,
Legal and
Parliamentary Affairs, to look at possible ways of banning the MDC's
use of
the Zimbabwe Bird on its logo, while two other Cabinet ministers should
order the removal of opposition political insignia in the country."

"The report said: "There were indications that the MDC's use of the
Zimbabwe
Bird on its logo is a violation of the provisions of the Armorials Act.
The
Minister of Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs should advise
accordingly."

Of course Kenya and Zimbabwe are two completely different places. Zimbabwe
is the successor state to Southern Rhodesia.
