They tried, unsuccessfully, to downgrade the Senate to the “lower house”, and left it with no role in approving appointments. I suggest that “bringing honour to the nation” involves Parliament considering whether an appointee will enhance our reputation overseas.

Kenya could become a leading example of good governance in Africa, influencing positive changes in neighbouring countries.
