The Constitution Just Turned 10! What Do The Kenyan Youth Have To Show For It?

The youth-related provisions in the current Constitution are far-reaching. Notably, it substantively mentions the word ‘youthnine times. The Constitution in Article 21 acknowledges the youth as a vulnerable group in the society. Under Article 27, it recognises age as one of the bases in which discrimination by the state or individual is prohibited. This is a development from the former Constitution as above-mentioned, as it left out age from its anti-discrimination clause.
