"content": "As a country, over the years, we have struggled to devolve functions of many national institutions, so that every Kenyan can benefit from devolution. That is economic devolution because this is not a federal State or a confederation. What has been put in the Constitution is an economic devolution. It is because of this that for us to protect the institutions that we head properly, to vouch for accountability, efficiency and proper institutional management, we must lead by example. How do we lead by example? We must be prepared to show servant leadership and do away with ego-oriented and centred leadership. This is what has contributed immensely to our failure. If you remember, in 1968, Kenya was a donor nation. Our GDP was at par with some of the real industrialised countries like South Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. What has happened?"
