Conscience hardly counts for much in our governance model. Its near-absence might have motivated drafters of the 2010 Constitution to cobble Chapter Six on leadership and integrity. Still, it might as well not exist, if the disdain elected leaders have for it is an indicator.
Claims, counterclaims, actions and pronouncements that depict most of our leaders as rogue dominate media spaces day in, day out. One moment there are claims that certain individuals are conspiring to assassinate Deputy President William Ruto. The next there are physical fights in Parliament.
