Leaders Reflect on 2010 Constitution's Legacy and Governance - August 2025

President William Ruto, while serving as Agriculture Minister, initially campaigned against the 2010 Constitution of which he is now a significant beneficiary. This has led to accusations of insincerity from critics like Martha Karua and Kalonzo Musyoka. As Kenya celebrated 15 years since the constitution's promulgation, Rarieda MP Otiende Amollo highlighted that the Senate remains weak, particularly in the 13th Parliament. Conversely, Lady Justice Njoki Ndung’u noted significant progress in the judiciary's independence and capacity. Meanwhile, Deputy President Prof Kithure Kindiki criticized the opposition while promoting the government's job creation efforts, such as the Affordable Housing Programme, at Murang'a Technical and Training Institute.
