Wiper Patriotic Front leader Kalonzo Musyoka has called for the unbiased implementation of the 2010 Constitution, warning that Kenya risks undermining the gains of the new constitutional order through selective compliance.

Speaking on Thursday to mark the 16th anniversary of the Constitution's promulgation, Kalonzo said the country had a “first-class Constitution and second-class compliance”, accusing state institutions and leaders of failing to uphold constitutional principles.

“The document itself is not our problem. Our problem is the distance between the text we celebrate every August and the conduct we tolerate for the other eleven months,” he said.
