Principle of checks and balances should be put into use to avoid conflict


THE STANDARD
OPINION
President Uhuru Kenyatta with newly sworn-in Supreme Court Judge William Okello Ouko at State House, Nairobi.
In the interests of the Kenyan state, the President and the Chief Justice should work together guided by the principle of check and balances.
The crafters of the State made the Executive precede the Judiciary and the legislature in the national pecking order. In creating the colonial state, conquerors and administrators came first. Courts came in to reinforce, but not compete with, the governor in running the state. 
A debate cropped up over that sense of responsibility with internal and external demands for overhauls of both the mind-frame and the practice. The result was the 2010 Constitution.

AMBREENA MANJI - The BBI Judgment and Project Kenya


My generation grew up in a country where the government used to dump shiploads of grain into the ocean. But not finishing your broccoli, in contrast, invoked mealtime lectures about hungry children in less fortunate countries. Wasting food was a moral problem and not the outcome of global inequality and skewed access that we later learned were responsible for those starving children pictured in UNESCO funding appeals on television.
Aversion to wasting food is probably wired into our genes. Even so, competing with your friends to kill oranges by rolling them under the wheels of passing vehicles was not exactly a sin when you were surrounded by near-endless expanses of citrus groves, and where neighbours routinely left gift bags of oranges on the doorstep that only added to the surfeit accumulating inside.

In our context, it is the state - not the Constitution - that is eternal


OPINION

The five High Court judges who ruled against the 2020 BBI Constitutional Amendment attracted attention partly because their ruling was more than a simple judgment on constitutional issues. Besides declaring the BBI unconstitutional, they raised issues that are relevant beyond Kenya. They stressed concepts such as ‘basic structure’ and ‘eternity’ clauses that are not specified in the Constitution, but are inherent in application. 
Depending on the geopolitical entity, whether empires or kingdoms on one side or states as derived from Westphalian logic, the issue of ‘eternity’ or ‘basic structure’ is relative. In general, empires are not eternal and can expand at the expense of others or contract by shedding off imperial baggage. The state, however, has a perpetual element in it that includes limited ‘sovereignty’ as accepted by the neighbours and those far, thereby making it ‘eternal’. What is eternal, therefore, is the state rather than what is in it. For the state to operate, it creates basic structures which include documents called constitutions, which in turn create governments as tools of running the ‘eternal’ state.

It would have been interesting to know the position former Cabinet Minister Simeon Nyachae, who passed away Monday, would have taken on the constitutional review process given his past involvement in similar initiatives.
Sharp differences have emerged over the merits and demerits of the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill, 2020, also called the Building Bridges Initiative.
In May 2005, President Mwai Kibaki’s Narc government named Nyachae to take over the leadership of the Select Committee on Review of the Constitution.

NGALA CHOME - What Kenyans Have Always Wanted is to Limit the Powers of the Executive


ad nauseum during the week of waiting that followed Kenya’s 2013 general elections.
In ads published in the run-up to the 2013 elections by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), people were told to vote, go home and accept the results. Encouraged by a state that had since the 2007 post-electoral violence dominated public discourse and means of coercion, the military pitched camp in polling stations. Many streets in Kenya’s cities and towns remained deserted for days after the polls closed.
According to Ngunyi, the winner of the 2013 elections had been known four months earlier, that is, when the electoral commission stopped registering voters.
