Constitutional commissions move to guard devolution gains

Kenya: Alarmed by the operational challenges rocking the 47 county governments since they were constituted last year, 11 constitutional commissions have intervened to ensure counties close ranks with the Senate.

Last Friday, the chairpersons of the 11 commissions and independent offices met in Nairobi and agreed on a 15-point agenda to ensure devolution succeeds by cushioning gains achieved thus far.
