There are no forests of bulky, suited, neckless bodyguards when Dr Abraham Korir Sing’Oei arrives. His arrival is, in fact, the antithesis of power. Which means he doesn’t arrive, he shows up. With only one car, I'm told.

Impeccably suited and striding through the hotel with an easy, officious elegance, save for the lapel pin of the flag, he could easily pass for an auditor, an investment banker, or a corporate executive. In truth, he is a lawyer, an international law expert and convener of the Open Government Partnership for Kenya.
