The second year of NARC’s rule in Kenya again comes to a disappointing end, with little to suggest that the coming three will be any better, writes Michael Mundia Kamau

The results of Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE), were released in standard tradition. Once again a small pocket of elite students have performed very well and are destined for schooling in top notch careers both abroad and at home.

I refer to recent and ongoing media reports on a group of individuals that have come together with
the objective of petitioning the British government to pay hefty compensation for injustices
perpetrated against the Mau Mau movement by the then British colonial administration.

Kenya needs is a review in the constitution of thought, not a constitutional review, argues Michael Mundia Kamau. The priority should be how to combat the debilitating ills of corruption, poverty, unemployment, hunger, disease, crime, and drug abuse. If there is to be a public referendum, then it should be on how to combat these ills, and how to create wealth for the majority.

The future of Kenya is in a precarious balance, writes Michael Mundia Kamau. There is little consolation in the anticipated resumption of donor funding. The country's problems go beyond government and are about a people with no direction and no will to change.
