Campus Politics- Complete picture of the national outlook?

Life in various campuses in Kenya are marred by a myriad of challenges brought about by scientific and technological developments, effects of globalisation and an ever-growing competitive environment which in turn prompts creation of a system of leadership by the students. While this should be a forum to represent all the stakeholders effectively, especially the students, most unions end up failing to meet their mandates, for which they were elected by the students.

National politics is known for violence, corruption, tribalism and massive use of propaganda to woe voters into their political camps and the same is experienced in most campuses. This makes universities a reflection of the social and political society in which they are located.
