Despite all the fears, devolution is working

NAIROBI: Two years since it was rolled out, it is apparent that devolution is working pretty well. Devolution is bringing out what defines us. It has showcased our diversity, strengthened our sovereignty and fostered stronger national values.

Achievements in the counties highlight the benefits of devolution. In Turkana, education received a big boost through increased bursaries. The building of more hospitals meant people had to walk shorter distances to get medical attention.
