Devolution is the answer to ending marginalisation, not secession

While the reasons behind the calls for secession necessitate an objective approach in solving them, marginalization will only end if county governments deliver as expected.

Homa Bay Town MP Peter Kaluma has drafted a Bill that seeks to split the country into two. He wants 40 out of the 47 counties to secede and form the People’s Republic of Kenya, leaving only seven counties; Nyeri, Murang’a, Kiambu, Kirinyaga, Nyandarua, Embu and Tharaka Nithi to form the Central Republic of Kenya.
