Chapter 20 Constitutional Commissions And
CHAPTER 20 CONSTITUTIONAL COMMISSIONS AND INDEPENDENT OFFICES IN KENYA AND AFRICA: EXPERIENCES, CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES1 This Chapter may be cited as: Ben Sihanya (due 2021) “Constitutional Commissions and Independent Offices in Kenya: Experiences, Challenges and Opportunities,” Chapter 20 in Ben Sihanya (due 2021) Constitutional Democracy, Regulatory, and Administrative Law in Kenya and Africa Vol. 1: Presidency, Premier, Legislature, Judiciary, Commissions, Devolution, Bureaucracy and Administrative Justice in Kenya, Sihanya Mentoring Prof Ben Sihanya Advocates, Nairobi & Siaya 20.1 Problem Statement on Kenyan Constitutional Commissions and Independent Offices Why have the Constitutional Commissions and independent offices CCIOs not delivered on the constitutional promise of popular sovereignty, liberty, service delivery and constitutional democracy? Why does tribal colonialism, tyranny and hegemony persist in elections, appointments, contracts, tenders, service delivery and manipulation and intimidation especially in public service in spite of the constitutional commissions and independent offices? In the ensuing sections of this Chapter, an Afro-Kenyanist conceptualisation and problematisation is used in analysing constitutional commissions and independent offices. I have also discussed some of the debates regarding CCIOs in the context of Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) 2019 and 2020 reports, and the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill 2020. Sovereignty has at least three components under the Constitution of Kenya 2010 and in constitutional theory and practice. First, sovereignty is the constitutive power including constitution making and constitutional amendment. Second, sovereignty is the power to elect, impeach or recall governors or rulers. Third, sovereignty is the power to monitor and evaluate the government, governors or rulers, governance and to hold them accountable. This chapter assesses the meaning, mandate, operation and significance of constitutional commissions and independent offices. -

The Relationship Between Influential Actors' Language and Violence: A
FEBRUARY 2019 The relationship between influential actors’ language and violence: A Kenyan case study using artificial intelligence Chris Mahony Eduardo Albrecht Murat Sensoy Abstract Scholarly work addressing the drivers of violent conflict predominantly focus on macro-level factors, often surrounding social group-specific grievances relating to access to power, justice, security, services, land, and resources. Recent work identifies these factors of risk and their heightened risk during shocks, such as a natural disaster or significant economic adjustment. What we know little about is the role played by influential actors in mobilising people towards or away from violence during such episodes. We hypothesise that influential actors’ language indicates their intent towards or away from violence. Much work has been done to identify what constitutes hostile vernacular in political systems prone to violence, however, it has not considered the language of specific influential actors. Our methodology targeting this knowledge gap employs a suite of third party software tools to collect and analyse 6,100 Kenyan social media (Twitter) utterances from January 2012 to December 2017. This software reads and understands words’ meaning in multiple languages to allocate sentiment scores using a technology called Natural Language Processing (NLP). The proprietary NLP software, which incorporates the latest artificial intelligence advances, including deep learning, transforms unstructured textual data (i.e. a tweet or blog post) into structured data (i.e. a number) to gauge the authors’ changing emotional tone over time. Our model predicts both increases and decreases in average fatalities 50 to 150 days in advance, with overall accuracy approaching 85%. This finding suggests a role for influential actors in determining increases or decreases in violence and the method’s potential for advancing understandings of violence and language. -
