Welcome to the Mwango Capital Podcast where we discuss topical issues on African capital markets.
In this episode of Mwango Uncensored, we host a rich panel of guests as we get a fresh perspective of the Kenya we want in conjunction with Africa Uncensored. We are joined by Nanjira and Nanjala Nyabola in a discussion that includes a look at Kenya since the promulgation of a new constitution a decade ago, devolution and its effects, the forthcoming Kenyan elections, and the role of media in all this.
The session is co-hosted by John-Allan Namu and Soud Hyder.
