The dire state informs the campaign of debt management, which has been marred by opacity in decision making, mismanagement of debt expenditures, and flagrant violations of public finance requirements, which have contributed to the present economic crisis and a debt trap. The campaign is grounded in our constitutional responsibility to respect, uphold and defend the Constitution of Kenya.
