KENYA: Some 70 artists and activists are on a three-week walk to Nairobi to mark the sixth anniversary of the promulgation of the Constitution.

The walk, christened ‘Ni Yetu’ (it’s ours), is aimed at instilling a sense of ownership and identity in Kenyan youth ahead of the celebration of six years since the Constitution came into force.
