The openness with which the media, civil society and the public are discussing and exposing alleged corrupt dealings by Government officials is an amazing expression of how far our democracy has come. Just 20 years ago, such conversations were held in whispers.
This means that even though one might not necessarily agree with the substance being discussed, most Kenyans agree the form in which it is discussed shows how far our democracy has progressed, and especially how central the right of expression has become to how Kenyans view themselves and their government.
