I asked the same question last year. Yet to get a good answer.
Perhaps this from Lord Colyton in the UK House of Lords on 15 July 1963, the month after the first #MadarakaDay, offers some clues. Basically, he says it was about allowing institutions to find their feet before full independence. A trial run of sorts.
