In 2005 a referendum of Kenya's old constitution was voted against, by 58% of the population. Kenya voted against the final draft because the country was corrupted in 1986 and did not want a relapse of that. Kibaki decided to write up a new constitution that kenya was happy with. He also fired his whole cabinet, at the time the old constitution was rejected. he did this because Mwai felt the new cabnit necessary to better serve Kenya, so the country was saw and in control.

Mwai Kabaki took away school fees causing 1.7 million children to attend school and get a better education. After Kenya's corruption, he also helped get freedom back (speech, press, assembly).

__Sustainable Economic Opprotunity__
One of the best places for agriculture, in all of Africa, is Kenya. Kenya's agriculture is what 75% of the population do for money. Kenya produces tea, coffee, sugar cane, fruits, vegetables, sugar cane, and wheat. Industries also hold alot of opprotunities which include small sale consumer goods, agriculture products, aliminum, steal, and commercial ship repair.

__Participation and Human Rights__
Mwai Kibaki has significantly reduced the use of the legal system to bother people who insult the government. Kenya recently set up a Kenya National Commission on Human Rights in 2003.

Mwai Kabaki is set on making things better for the people of kenya.
