The events the last few weeks are an ominous sign of the type of elections that Kenya may have in 2022. As a country we have been here before. Bravado, charged campaigns, hate speech and violence.

Kenya has spent more than a decade working on making its politics more issue-based, its Constitution more democratic, its elections less divisive and its society more united.
