Publication of former SARChI doctoral researcher's book on devolution in Kenya
In March 2015, John Mutakha Kangu graduated with a doctoral degree from UWC. His doctoral study on devolution in Kenya was supervised by Prof Nico Steytler, SA Research Chair at the Dullah Omar Institute.
The book entitled "Constitutional Law of Kenya on Devolution", based on his doctoral thesis, was recently published by Strathmore University Press. In the words of Justice Ojwang (Supreme Court of Kenya) the book is "outstanding in its straightforward and practical explication". Dr Kangu is attached to the Law Faculty of Moi University in Kenya and one of the country's most respected scholars on devolution.
The book has been presented to Kenya's former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
