As Kenya marks 15 years since the promulgation of its 2010 Constitution, experts highlight both significant achievements and persistent challenges. While devolution has transformed access to services and independent institutions have upheld the rule of law, key promises like public participation and revenue allocation remain largely unfulfilled.

• Despite its progressive design, public participation remains an "overlooked" aspect, with Kenyans still excluded from major decision-making.
• The Supreme Court and other independent institutions have successfully protected the Constitution from attempts at overhaul such as BBI, Punguza Mzigo, and the NADCO report.
• Devolution has significantly improved service delivery, bringing schools and hospitals closer to people, reducing the need to travel to Nairobi, as highlighted by Constitutional Expert Dr. Koki Muli.
• A major "stumbling block" to devolution remains the "standoff" between counties and the national government over revenue allocation, forcing governors to "beg" for their share.
• The fight against corruption lacks "political will," with calls for public wealth declarations and lifestyle audits, according to lawyer Prof. Kivutha Kibwana.
