Justice James Makau issued temporary orders on ursday allowing church broadcasting crews and church leaders to air their services. However, they must abide by all the state regula- tions, such as social distancing, handwashing and sanitising. Gatherings, including church service, have been banned because the coronavirus is easily transmitted in crowds. Two pastors had sued to suspend the directive banning church gatherings. Justice Makau barred the police from victimising or harassing the group of people in church for purposes of broadcasting. “Pending the hearing and determination of this application, the courts be pleased to order alternative forms of worship such as broadcasting of church services, be allowed on specifi c days.” “[ is is] to allow various churches to broadcast CONTAINMENT MEASURES to their faithful congregants without victimisation and harassment of the broadcasting crew, church elders, leaders and congregants who will be part of the church service,” the order reads.

    KENYA ELECTION HISTORY 1963-2013 1963 Kenya Election History 1963 1963: THE PRE-INDEPENDENCE ELECTIONS These were the last elections in pre-independent Kenya and the key players were two political parties, KANU and KADU. KADU drew its support from smaller, less urbanized communities hence advocated majimboism (regionalism) as a means of protecting them. KANU had been forced to accept KADU’s proposal to incorporate a majimbo system of government after being pressured by the British government. Though KANU agreed to majimbo, it vowed to undo it after gaining political power. The majimbo constitution that was introduced in 1962 provided for a two-chamber national legislature consisting of an upper (Senate) and lower (House of Representative). The Campaign KADU allied with the African People’s Party (APP) in the campaign. KANU and APP agreed not to field candidates in seats where the other stood a better chance. The Voting Elections were marked by high voter turnout and were held in three phases. They were widely boycotted in the North Eastern Province. Violence was reported in various parts of the country; four were killed in Isiolo, teargas used in Nyanza and Nakuru, clashes between supporters in Machakos, Mombasa, Nairobi and Kitale. In the House of Representative KANU won 66 seats out of 112 and gained working majority from 4 independents and 3 from NPUA, KADU took 47 seats and APP won 8. In the Senate KANU won 19 out 38 seats while KADU won 16 seats, APP won 2 and NPUA only 1. REFERENCE: NATIONAL ELECTIONS DATA BOOK By Institute for Education in Democracy (published in 1997).

  • The Challenges of Reinvigorating Democracy Through Visual Art in 21St Century Nairobi
    The challenges of reinvigorating democracy through visual art in 21st century Nairobi Craig Campbell Halliday 30 September 2019 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfilment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Sainsbury Research Unit for the Arts of Africa, Oceania & the Americas School of Art, Media and American Studies University of East Anglia, Norwich This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived therefrom must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. 1 Abstract This study examines the potential for contemporary visual art to reinvigorate democracy in 21st century Nairobi, Kenya, through an interdisciplinary investigation. The new millennium ushered in fresh hope for democratisation in the postcolonial East African country. In 2002, Daniel arap Moi’s 24 years of authoritarian rule ended. The opposition were victorious at the ballot box, instilling a belief amongst the electorate that formal political processes could bring change. However, the post-election violence of 2007/8 shattered such convictions. But, from this election result came a progressive Constitution and with it possibilities for creating change. These momentous events underscore Kenya’s topsy-turvy path towards democracy – a path whose trajectory is charted in the experience of ordinary Kenyans who believe in democracy’s value and their right to participate in politics and civil life. Artists, too, have been at the forefront of this ongoing struggle. This study draws on empirical research to demonstrate contemporary visual art’s capacity to expand ways of practising, experiencing and understanding democracy.

  • Devolved System of Governance Could Be Kenya's Last Chance
    ISSUE 081, April 16-31, 2013 Unfiltered, uninhibited…just the gruesome truth 1 April 16-30, 2013 ISSUE 081 A bimonthly newspaper by the Media Diversity Centre, a project of African Woman and Child Feature Service CHALLENGES OF COUNTY GOVERNMENTS Hope in County government Devolved system of governance could be Kenya’s last chance By JOYCE CHIMBI In the wake of the most competitive and com- plex general election in the country’s history, it is all systems go as Kenya transits from a cen- tralized to a devolved system of governance. Many are hopeful that the solution to hun- ger, poverty and gross inequalities that have be- devilled the country lie in a devolved system of governance. “Due to the centralized system, where all de- cisions regarding this country are made in Nai- robi, people travel from the other seven regions to Nairobi since they believe it represents pros- pects for a better life,” says Dr Danson Mwan- gangi, an economist and market researcher in East Africa. He says that centralization of power and re- sources has compromised the establishment of strong linkages between policy, planning and execution of the national budget. “When the national budget is being read in parliament, millions of poor Kenyans hurdle around radio sets for news on price reductions of major items, our concern being our day to day survival,” says Benjamin Owuor, a mason in Nairobi. He notes: “Decisions regarding the needs of ordinary Kenyans are made in the Parliament that sits in Nairobi, we now want these deci- sions made in County assemblies that sit where the ordinary Kenyans are.” centralized government, allocates 75 per cent With recent statistics by the World Bank re- of its resources equally across the 210 (in pre- vealing that of the 800,000 job seekers, the job vious parliament) constituencies in Kenya, market can only absorb a paltry 50,000, thou- and only 25 per cent is based on the poverty sands of job seekers come to Nairobi to scram- rate of particular constituencies.

When considering global media sport, it is crucial to consider the nature and balance of its fl ows around the world. As indicated in various places in this book, it is banal and misleading to talk about ‘the global’ as if it were evenly spread and without histories, origins and destinations. Nations are not irrelevant to sport and media – only a brief glance at locational variations in the popularity and prominence of various sports, and the involvement of national governments in it, quickly disabuses the analyst of that misconception – but not all nations command equal power over the production and circulation of sport. The institution of sport, its practices and protocols emerged, as argued in Chapter 2, in the West, as did the fi rst major media institutions capable of transmitting the images and sounds of sport across the globe. Therefore, there is a close historical relationship between the development of global sport and Western imperialism and colonialism still evident in the twenty-fi rst century, but as is also apparent, control over the fl ows of media and sport is not all one way, and just as there is something of a shift in geopolitical economic power towards Asia, this trend is also registering in sport and its mediation.
