💨 Abstract

Kenya's new Deputy President Kithure Kindiki was sworn in following the lifting of court orders blocking his inauguration. His predecessor, Rigathi Gachagua, was impeached by parliament in October for violating the constitution and stirring ethnic hatred, which he denies. Gachagua's legal challenges prolonged political instability in Kenya, the largest economy in East Africa, following nationwide protests against tax hikes in June.
