A section of Kenya Union of Post Primary Teachers (Kuppet) members are calling for the enactment of the constitutional amendments by the National Delegates Conference held in Vihiga County last year.

At the heart of the proposed changes are efforts to address historical disparities in gender, youth, and disability representation, as well as regional imbalances in leadership.
