Let us start this thing all over again from the top

Our main problem, our main challenge, that started this change the constitution crusade 20 years ago was because, immediately we crafted one in lancaster it was opened up to 'raping'.

please not nothing else was being changed in the draft apart from what concerns governance. single or multy party state, powers of the president, role of judiciary, Parliament and land.
the abuse of the system of government, led to offshoots e.g land grabbing and impunity.
Our problem all along was the structure of government (the executive, the judiciary, and parliament) with all powers having been vested in the executive.

We've had two chances to change this rot, the Bomas attempt and now this COE policy paper.

Now the COE did a good job trying to tame the structures of government. which was was the mandate given by the blood, toil and sweat shed most of the 20 years.
Problem is they went in and did an overhaul on everything, including things we didn't even need touched.

Have a closer look at the Preamble and the Bill of Rights and relate it to the rest of the chapters...

"Abortion is illegal unless..."

Does this mean abortion is allowed or it is not? Hmmm. Sounds like the chicken and the egg problem.

@Tebes.....read 41(2)d under labor relations section.

Show me in the bill of rights where that is being restricted!!

Unless members of disciplined forces are not workers, then they have the right to go on strike.

Mostly, the minimum would be on agricultural land to enable proper planning and this is just a leeway for the future (my understanding). Minimum is not even our major problem right now.... Maximum is!!! Those grabbers must first return our land... then we can deal with minimum when we have land back to us! If we have the lot of land back, then minimum can come in later when we are 120million people and we need to concentrate people in towns for ease of distribution of resources and leave land for reasonable farming to feed that population. I think the intention was to avoid having houses on every piece of land and we lack anywhere to farm in future. Its the way they do it in more developed countries. People lease land to do commercial farming and seems thats where we are headed but that might not find us alive! at least most of those contributing to this post... hehehehehe...

@Kingfisher

Exactly!!! Article 24(5) limits enjoyment of rights and freedom by members of Kenya Defence force and National Police service as outlined in Articles 31, 36, 37, 41, 43, 49. Article 24(5) has specifically spelt out these articles as a limitation to these category of persons!
