National race
President of Kenya
The presidency is the countrywide race that shapes cabinet appointments, national policy, security, fiscal priorities, and Kenya’s international posture.
What the office does
The President leads the national executive, appoints cabinet secretaries subject to parliamentary approval, commands the Kenya Defence Forces, signs or refers legislation, and drives national policy through ministries and state agencies.
In 2027, voters will be weighing economic pressure, public debt, corruption, cost of living, job creation, security, devolution funding, and confidence in public institutions.
