Effective public participation begs for defined process
Mikindani residents in Jomvu Constituency, Mombasa sign their petition during a Public Participation Exercise to ouster the Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua on October 6, 2024.
By the Constitution of Kenya 2010, Kenyans committed to a government based on the essential values of human rights, equality, freedom, democracy, social justice and the rule of law. The people of Kenya chose to exercise their sovereign and inalienable right to determine the form of governance to adopt.
At the core of any democratic society is the element of public participation. The Constitution has embedded this principle in its Preamble, Article 10(2) on national values and Article 118 which speaks to public access and participation.
