First, the need to promote popular sovereignity, constitutional democracy and service delivery. Second, avoiding executive fiat and despotism. Third, avoiding anarchy. We review three inter-related constitutional questions on public, government and executive power in Kenya and Africa. First, what are the three sets of public or governmetal powers in Kenya and Africa? Second, what are some of the components of these legislative, executive or administrative, and juridical or adjudicatory powers? Third, how are these powers, related procedures, shared, contested and reproduced horizontally and vertically? What lessons do we learn from Afro-Kenyanist constitutional, legal and political theory of power and the related rights or liberties and processes? How did the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) conceptualize and address public, government and executive power? 7.1.1 The three powers and arms of Government in Kenya and Africa The three sets of powers are legislative, executive and judicial.

    Newspaper Visibility of Members of Parliament in Kenya*

    Journalism and Mass Communication, ISSN 2160-6579 D July 2012, Vol. 2, No. 7, 717-734 DAVID PUBLISHING Newspaper Visibility of Members of Parliament in Kenya* Kioko Ireri Indiana University, Bloomington, USA This research investigates variables that predicted news coverage of 212 members of parliament (MPs) in Kenya by four national newspapers in 2009. The 10 variables examined are: ordinary MP, cabinet minister, powerful ministry, parliamentary committee chairmanship, seniority, big tribe identity, major party affiliation, presidential ambition, commenting on contentious issues, and criticizing government. Findings indicate that commenting on contentious issues, criticizing government, cabinet minister, ordinary MP, powerful ministry, and seniority significantly predicted visibility of the parliamentarians in newspaper news. However, a multiple regression analysis shows that the strongest predictors are commenting on contentious issues, cabinet minister, criticizing government, and big tribe identity. While commenting on controversial issues was the strongest predictor, major party identification and committee leadership were found not to predict MPs’ visibility. Keywords: Kenya, members of parliament (MPs), newspapers, newspaper visibility, politicians, visibility, visibility predictor Introduction Today, the mass media have become important platforms for the interaction of elected representatives and constituents. Through the mass media, citizens learn what their leaders are doing for them and the nation. Similarly, politicians use the media to make their agendas known to people. It is, thus, rare to come across elected leaders ignorant about the importance of registering their views, thoughts, or activities in the news media. In Kenya, members of parliament have not hesitated to exploit the power of the mass media to its fullest in their re-election bids and in other agendas beneficial to them.

    Nairobi City County HIV Fast Track Report (2015)

    Nairobi City County HIV Fast Track Report 2015 Foreword Only a decade ago, Nairobi had a population of about two million. Today, this number has doubled. While the country’s capital is an expanding and dynamic hub, drawing people from across the country, the region and the world, and generating opportunities for innovation, the rapid growth of urban areas such as Nairobi also brings particular issues in terms of preventing and managing diseases such as HIV. People living in large and growing cities like Nairobi face specific risks, which increase their vulnerability to HIV infection. These risks include high mobility, a concentration of susceptible groups, such as drug users and sex workers, and high numbers Dr. Evans Kidero, Governor, of people residing in informal, slum settlements – especially Nairobi City County youth. With this in mind, on 1 December 2014, Nairobi joined 13 other cities around the world in signing the Paris Declaration – a key part of the global Fast-Track Cities: Ending the AIDS Epidemic campaign. The declaration commits its signatories to undertake concrete steps to end AIDS by 2030. We chose to be involved in this work – part of a broader effort to achieve the Fast Track Targets – because we understood that if we did not intensify our work to end AIDS, we risk losing the battle against the disease thus ultimately compromising our aspirations for socio-economic progress moving forward. Nairobi City County has, over the last year, mounted an exceptional response, with support from the national government and its partners, including the UN Joint Team on HIV.
