This Jamhuri I spent some time reading government publications on Kenya's history. Often, these publications say more about where government's policy is focused than all speeches on podiums put together.
They are like protocol in government; where people sit and who speaks when can tell you more about the pecking order of government than the official programme booklet. Two of the insightful publications I came across this week were both named "Kenya @60", published last year to commemorate Kenya's 60th birthday.
