Bringing in the Future in Kenya: Beyond the 2010 Constitution

Kenya’s future is inexorably tied to the implementation of the 2010 constitution. Some of the reformed and newly created institutions as mandated by this constitution offer the best opportunity to the country in the quest for building a capable state with good governance and sustained economic progress. This work argues that the fate of the country will be determined by how well and consistently the 2010 constitution is implemented through the functioning of a small group of key institutions covering electoral activities, the justice sector, devolution, legislative oversight and corruption control. In fact, sustained socio-economic progress and political development in Kenya hinges critically on the country’s approach to implementation of the 2010 constitution that has been so enthusiastically endorsed by Kenyans. The successful implementation of the 2010 constitution will also enhance the chances of achieving the aspirations outlined in the Kenya Vision 2030 of substantial improvements in the economic, social and political fronts.
