Since it attained Independence in 1963, Kenya has undergone a Constitutional crisis that has lasted decades. The rule of law has been sabotaged, subverted, incapacitated, undermined and alienated at every turn. When Kenya gained Independence, it inherited and worsened the colonial crisis of governance with dire infringements on human rights and calamitous consequences on its economy.
