Kenyan Constitution

The Kenyan Constitution, adopted in 2010, is the country’s supreme legal framework. It sets out how the government should operate, protects citizens’ rights, and ensures justice and equality. It divides power among the Executive (President), Legislature (Parliament), and Judiciary (courts), promoting checks and balances. It also establishes devolution, giving local counties authority to manage their affairs. The Constitution emphasizes respect for human rights, gender equality, and the rule of law, aiming for a just, democratic, and inclusive society. It provides the legal foundation for Kenya’s governance, development, and protection of freedoms.
