Former Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki, who died a week ago at the age of 90, will be honored with a state funeral on Friday.
Several African presidents and other world leaders have already confirmed their attendance, including Cyril Ramaphosa of South Africa, Salva Kiir of South Sudan, and Sahle-Work Zewde of Ethiopia.
The competition is being conducted at the Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi, Kenya's capital. To enable access to the venue, major roads in the city have been closed.
Kenyans have been queuing for many days to pay their respects to the late president, viewing his body at parliament where it lay in state.
Kenya has declared Friday a national holiday to allow Kenyans to mourn and reflect.
Tanzania, in solidarity with Kenyans, has proclaimed two days of mourning beginning Friday.
Mr. Kibaki was inaugurated as Kenya's third president in late 2002, and he governed until 2013.
On Saturday, the former president will be laid to rest at his home in central Kenya.
