Kenya Election History 1963-2013
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 Fate of Coffee in Kenya
THE FATE OF COFFEE IN KENYA - AN ASSESSMENT OF FACTORS AFFECTING THE SMALL-SCALE COFFEE PRODUCERS’ DECISION-MAKING PROCESS IN GATUGI VILLAGE, OTHAYA. Picture: Left: Coffee branch with flowers.

Hansen and Ebbe Prag March 28, 2014 - University of Copenhagen TITLE PAGE SIGNATURES BY AUTHOURS Andersen, Astrid S. ________________________________ Eisler, Thomas ________________________________ Gedremicheal, Haftu Haile ________________________________ Kapande, Issa ________________________________ Skouw-Rasmussen, Naja ________________________________ Picture: Our group at project presentations in Othaya (Picture by Group) Word count: 11,073 words 2 ABSTRACT This study was done with the objective of responding to the question: how do factors affect small-scale farmers’ decision-making process regarding coffee production in Gatugi, Nyeri South District, Kenya? Data were collected from coffee farmers in Gatugi, the Othaya Farmer’s Co-operative management, Karima ward agricultural extension officer and the Gatugi Coffee Factory manager. The methods employed for data collection included Participatory Rural Appraisal, semi-structured interviews, questionnaire, direct observation and informal conversation. Ostrom (1990) rational choice model was used as a way to understand the connection between internal world, external factors and production decisions. It proved to be difficult to deal with the internal world which individuals use as filter to value the different external factors. The results of analysis showed that economic factors such as low and volatile prices, the payment system and limited access to inputs and credit have negatively influenced farmers towards neglecting or uprooting of their coffee. -

Electoral Security and Legislator Attention: Evidence from the Kenyan National Assembly Debates, 2008-2017. Abstract How do African legislators divide their attention between the demands of their local constituency and their responsibilities in national parliament? Majority of studies portrays African legislators as mere rubber-stamping constituency servants. I show instead significant variation in legislator attention. Building on the literature on the electoral origins of legislator behavior, I argue that electoral pressure faced by individual legislators heavily conditions their decisions about how to allocate effort between local and national priorities. Using a novel dataset of more than 56,000 speeches made by over 400 unique legislators in the Kenyan National Assembly from 2008 to 2017, I develop speech-based measures of local versus national attention. I show that Kenyan legislators in less competitive constituencies speak more in national parliament, suggesting a greater commitment to national policymaking. Moreover, when I disaggregate data by type of speech, I find that electorally vulnerable legislators engage in locally oriented speeches, whereas those with security speak more about national topics. -
