CHAPTER 14 ADMINISTRATIVE BUREAUCRACY AND REGULATORY PROCESS AND JUSTICE IN KENYA AND AFRICA: Cabinet, Cabinet Secretary, Secretary to the Cabinet, Chief Administrative Secretary, Principal Secretary, HOPS (HOCS), and County Administration [CPSB, County Secretary] This Chapter may be cited as: Ben Sihanya (forthcoming 2020) “Administrative Bureaucracy and Regulatory Process and Justice in Kenya and Africa: Cabinet, Cabinet Secretary, Secretary to the Cabinet, Chief Administrative Secretary, Principal Secretary, HOPS (HOCS), and County Administration [CPSB, County Secretary],” in Ben Sihanya (2020) Constitutional Democracy, Regulatory and Administrative Law in Kenya and Africa Vol. 2: Presidency, Premier, Legislature, Judiciary, Commissions, Devolution, Bureaucracy and Administrative Justice in Kenya, Sihanya Mentoring & Innovative Lawyering, Nairobi & Siaya 14.1 Introduction to Administrative Bureaucracy, Cabinet, Cabinet Secretary, Secretary to the Cabinet, Chief Administrative Secretary, Principal Secretary, HOPS (HOCS), and County Administration in Kenya and Africa This Chapter conceptualizes, problematizes, analyses and contextualizes administrative bureaucracy in Kenya and Africa, with specific focus on Cabinet Secretaries, Secretary to the Cabinet, Chief Administrative Secretary, Principal Secretary, Head of Public Service (HOPS), Head of Civil Service (HOCS), and County Administration using and Afro-Kenyanist constitutional sociology, theory, methodology and approach. What are the debates on the Cabinet associated with the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI)? 14.2 Conceptualising, Problematizing and Contextualizing Cabinet (Secretaries) in Kenya and Africa There has been a long debate on the meaning and significance, including appointment, powers, functions, duties, assignment, promotion, re-assignment (e.g. reshuffling), number,… liberties, rights, privileges, discipline, disappointment of Ministers under the 1963, 1964, 1969, 2008, 2010 Constitutions.1 Under the 2010 Constitution, a major departure from Afro-Kenyan tradition is that they are not Members of Parliament (MP)2, hence the BBI debate that top members of the Executive should sit in Parliament, and especially the National Assembly.3 1 Cabinet under Jomo Kenyatta, Daniel Moi, Mwai Kibaki, Uhuru Kenyatta… 2 See Article 132 of the Constitution of Kenya 2010. 3 These are the members of Cabinet, Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister and Cabinet Members. See the BBI Report, 2019, at https://d2s5ggbxczybtf.cloudfront.net/bbireport.pdf (accessed 19/8/2020). See also Chapters 9A, 9B and 10 of CODRALKA 1 above. 1 14.2.1 Cabinet Secretaries and Cabinet Ministers in Kenya and Africa The Constitution of Kenya 2010 introduces Cabinet Secretaries to replace Ministers under Article 152. The President nominates and, with the approval of the National Assembly, appoints the Cabinet Secretaries.4 Section 16(1) of the 1969 Constitution provided that “there shall be such offices of Minister of the Government of Kenya as may be established by Parliament or, subject to any provisions made by Parliament, by the President.” Sub-section (2) provided that the President shall, subject to the provisions of any written law, appoint the Ministers from among the members of the National Assembly. Parliament has never legislated on the offices of Ministers of the Government of Kenya. However, a bill was debated in Parliament seeking to establish the number of Ministries and qualifications for Ministers of the Government of Kenya. It was sponsored by Mr Ekwee David Ethuro, then Member of Parliament (MP) for Turkana Central.5 President Kibaki returned the Bill arguing that the issues were covered by the Constitution of Kenya 2010. Article 152(2) provides that there should be no fewer than fourteen and no more than twenty two Cabinet Secretaries.6 Section 4(2) and (3) of the National Accord and Reconciliation Act, a transitional legislation, amended the provisions of the 1969 Constitution regarding the appointment of Ministers and Assistant Ministers of Government.7 It provided: “(2) In the formation of the Coalition Government, the persons to be appointed as Ministers and Assistant Ministers from the political parties that are partners in the coalition other than the President’s party shall be nominated by the Leader of the Parliamentary party in the coalition and thereafter there shall be in full consultation with the President in the appointment of all Ministers. (3) The composition of the coalition Government shall at all times reflect the relative Parliamentary strengths of the respective parties and shall at all times take into account the principle of portfolio balance.” 4 In 2013, nominations and appointments, all those nominated by the President were approved by the National Assembly. “Tyranny of numbers”?.... some of the Cabinet Secretaries had clear corrupt records or tendencies. By 2015, some were named by President Kenyatta and made to “step aside” and later “cleared.” 5 He was the Member of Parliament for Turkana Central from 1998 to 2013. He is also the first Speaker of the Senate under the Constitution of Kenya 2010, March 28, 2013 to 2017. See Senate Website, at http://parliament.go.ke/index.php/the-senate/sen-david-ekwee-ethuro (accessed 19/8/2020). 6 The Jubilee Government appointed 18 Cabinet Secretaries in 2019 7 During the debate on power sharing, Party of National Unity (PNU), through Uhuru Kenyatta and co. argued that PNU and ODM should share responsibility, not power. Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), though Prof Anyang’ Nyong’o and others argued that power sharing was a basis for joint responsibility and to enable ODM to implement its commitment through its manifesto. See …. Prof Nyong’o served as Secretary General of ODM, and from 2017 he was the second Governor of Kisumu County. 2 Articles 152 and 153 Constitution of Kenya (2010) creates 14-22 offices of Cabinet Secretaries. The Constitution of Kenya also creates, under Article 155, the offices of Principal Secretaries (PSs), who shall be the effective administrators of Ministries and State Departments. Cf. Parliamentary Secretary at Independence, and Permanent Secretary over the years… Article 152(1) states that there shall be a Cabinet consisting of the President; the Deputy President; the Attorney-General; and Cabinet Secretaries. Section 17 of the 1969 Constitution provided that there shall be a Cabinet consisting of the President, the Vice-President and the other Ministers. Ss. (2) provided that the function of the Cabinet shall be to aid and advise the President in the government of Kenya. How did Cabinet (Government) develop? UK, USA, developments, among others? Cabinet development in South Africa? Nigeria? Uganda? Tanzania? Ghana? 14.2.2 Responsibilities of Cabinet Secretaries in Kenya Article 153 provides that Cabinet Secretaries are accountable individually, and collectively, to the President for the exercise of their powers and the performance of their functions. They are also responsible to Parliament (Art. 153(4) (b)).8 The 1969 Constitution as amended in 2008 was to the effect that Cabinet was collectively responsible to the National Assembly for all things done by or under the authority of the President, [the Prime Minister] or the Vice-President or any other Minister in the execution of his office.9 Is it constitutional for Cabinet Secretaries to appear before the National Assembly to answer questions under the Constitution of Kenya 2010?10 This move was opposed by the then Attorney- General, Prof Githu Muigai, the Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution (CIC) and the Legal Affairs Office in the Presidency.11 The Commission for the Implementation of the 8 Cf. The then Devolution and Planning Cabinet Secretary Anne Waiguru impeachment motion, see Dennis Odunga (2014) “MP files motion to impeach Devolution Secretary Waiguru,” Daily Nation, 20/5/2014, at https://www.nation.co.ke/news/MP-files-motion-to-impeach-devolution-secretary-Waiguru/1056-2321504- ixhi0az/index.html (accessed April 13, 2020). In April 2020, the Kirinyaga County Governor, faced another impeachment motion. The court suspended the impeachment proceedings citing effects of Covid-19 crisis. See Maureen Kakah (2020) “Court halts Waiguru impeachment process over coronavirus,” Daily Nation, April 7, 2020, at https://www.nation.co.ke/news/politics/Coronavirus-halts-Waiguru-impeachment-process/1064-5516836- xhsitcz/index.html (accessed April 13, 2020), and from the BBI debate. 9 The interpolation or insertion is from the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Act 2008, and the National Accord and Reconciliation Act (NARA), 2008 (expired 2013). 10 Comparatively….USA, Uganda, Nigeria…In South Africa, the National Council of Provinces (NCOP) exercises oversight by requiring Cabinet ministers to attend a meeting of the NCOP or a committee under it. 11 …. 3 Constitution (CIC) argued that Cabinet Secretaries were not supposed to answer questions on the floor of the House.12 The Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution (CIC) even filed a constitutional petition at the High Court to challenge the decision by Parliament to amend its Standing Order Rules, and set up a committee on oversight which would then summon Cabinet Secretaries.13 Subsequently, the National Assembly summoned Cabinet Secretaries. Three examples are indicative. First, the National Assembly summoned Dr Fred Matiang’I to appear before the National Assembly Committee on Administration and Security to answer to questions of disobedience to court orders and the

    Kenya Deputy President William Ruto 2021

    Meet the Real William Ruto MPs and other Mt Kenya politicians who insist they do not have a problem with President Uhuru Kenyatta, that their differences with Uhuru is because of Raila Odinga, or because they suspect Uhuru is not willing to support DP William Ruto for presidency in 2022, are either naive, or outright liars. WILLIAM RUTO WITH FAROUK KIBET During the weekend of December 8 - 9, 2019, DP Ruto attended events in at least 5 counties, including: 1. The African Independent Pentecostal Church of Africa (AIPCA), Mukaro Diocese, Giakanja, Nyeri County. 2. Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) Cathedral of St Peter’s Mbeere, Siakago, Embu County. 3. St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Mukuyuni, Makueni County. 4. Ndagani Catholic Parish, Chuka, Tharaka-Nithi County. 5. Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA), Kipipiri, Nyandarua County. Every politically enlightened Kenyan knows what these events represent. They could be termed prayer-worship, fundraising or whatever. But we know they are also campaign events, and have been going on for almost 2 years now. In fact, I don’t think any other Kenyan has ever spent so much time airborne, on Kenyan airspace, as DP Ruto has (apart from pilots & air hostesses). This is what I believe is going on: A little digression: Once upon a time, I worked for 3 months as a clerk in a government office. One day, I accompanied my boss as he went to buy some equipment in town. That was when I learnt why corruption is so prevalent in Kenya. The business itself encouraged corruption, probably so that one can become a frequent customer.

Estimating the Effect of Devolution on Infrastructure Spending in Kenya Word Count: 10,081 Abstract Does the decentralisation of state institutions result in a more equitable distribution of public goods in the African context? To answer this question this study examines a natural experiment in Kenya where the new 2010 Constitution devolved political and fiscal powers to 47 newly-established county governments. A difference-in-differences strategy is employed that exploits heterogeneity in the ethnic alignment of each county to the president. This effectively varies the intensity of the ‘treatment’ of devolution across counties. Using data on road expenditure across all 47 counties from 2010 to 2017, this study finds that the devolution of state structures in Kenya resulted in a significantly more equitable distribution of road spending. These results represent an important contrast to the prevailing view in the literature that asserts that decentralisation reforms in sub-Saharan Africa have largely failed to live up to expectations.

    Sanctions As a Tool for Asset Recovery: Kenya

    SANCTIONS AS A TOOL FOR ASSET RECOVERY: KENYA CIFAR RESEARCH PAPER CIFAR.EU KEY MESSAGES • Kenya has been relatively successful in recent years in concluding modest asset recovery agreements and has shifted its strategy from purely pursuing corruption prosecutions and convictions to also tracing and locating the proceeds of corruption. • The UK, the EU and the US have sanctioned several Kenyan nationals and residents of Kenya on the grounds of support for terrorism and corrupt conduct. • Sanctions imposed by other countries have though been portrayed within Kenya as politically motivated and designed to preserve geopolitical or business advantage. • The use of Magnitsky-style, ‘smart’ sanctions may present some advantages and opportunities in Kenya, especially in tackling past cases. • Care needs to be taken when imposing these international sanctions that they address primarily cases where national progress is stalled. Extensive communication with a wide range of Kenyan stakeholders during the process is recommended. Paper prepared by Mr. Vaclav Prusa for the Civil Forum for Asset Recovery e.V. (CiFAR).

    The Arror and Kimwarer Dams Project

    The Real Story Behind the Dams Scam By Alessandro Da Rold and Lorenzo Bagnoli Since the 1970s, Kenya has been considered by convicted Italian criminals as a safe haven – a place to hide from justice. A recent tide has, however, occurred and now some of these criminals have been extradited after spending years enjoying the “good vibes” of the Kenyan sea shores, especially in their stronghold Malindi. It seems to be the end of an era marked by impunity as Kenyan authorities have started pursuing alleged felonies committed by Italians living in Kenya. The authorities are not just going after individuals, but companies as well. On the 29th of July this year, the Milimani Chief Magistrate’s court in Nairobi allowed Kenya’s Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Noordin Haji, to issue an arrest warrant for the Italian citizen Paolo Porcelli, the CEO of CMC (Cooperativa Muratori e Cementisti) from Ravenna. Porcelli is charged with abuse of office, bid-rigging and misuse of public funds and could face jail time if he returns to Kenya. With him on the list of the indicted there is also the Italian joint venture between the Italian companies Itinera (Gavio Group) and CMC. Porcelli declined to appear in court twice. “Porcelli is a fugitive. Despite being given the opportunity, he hasn’t presented himself in court for a second time,” DPP Special Prosecutor Taib Ali Taib told the court. “The Italians think they can break the law and get away with it contemptuously. They believe nothing will come out of it. Don’t allow it, your honour”.
