Page 8 - KANU Constitution

2. THAT, if and when given the mandate to govern the country, KANU shall do so in total

observance of the Law of the Land, and National Codes of Regulations and Ethics. In this

respect, the KANU governments policies shall be carefully and broadly conceived, and
shall be born from and refined by broad-based consultations with the wider Sections of our

society, including the civil society organizations, the public and private sectors.
3. THAT governance by KANU shall practice and uphold freedom and civil liberties

enshrined in The Constitution of Kenya. KANU shall not only be enjoined by these
freedoms in its actions, but shall also defend, protect and preserve the same. KANU shall

further strive to educate the people about these rights through the formulation and

application of appropriate programs of civic education for political empowerment.
4. THAT, being acutely aware that our country cannot judiciously stand alone, KANU shall

look abroad and borrow a leaf from the experiences and practices of other countries for our
national good. But this shall be done strictly on selective basis so as to borrow only what

is compatible with our needs and not that which may desecrate our cultural heritage,
history, national cohesion, image or compromise our National sovereignty. AND in this

regard, KANU firmly undertakes to reject external interferences and foreign ideologies.

This rejection is premised on the conviction that Kenyans deserve a national pride and
dignity of their own; they have the inalienable right to decide their own destiny AND must

in no way be the subject of external manipulations and ideological experiments.

5. THAT, KANU shall endeavor to co-operate with other African countries and support any
Pan-African movements and strategies designed to consolidate Africa’s political

independence. Similarly, KANU shall speak loud and clear against any form of neo-
colonialism, subjugation and imperialism perpetrated on Africa or other people anywhere

in the world. The promotion of African unity, through the African Union and the economic

emancipation and integration of Africa shall remain one of KANU’s primary concerns.
Therefore, KANU through its Government shall pursue policies and take actions towards

the achievements of these concerns.

6. THAT, KANU shall adhere to the electoral codes of regulations promulgated from time,

and shall in this regard subscribe to, and cause its candidates in all elections to subscribe
to such code of regulations, in the furtherance of a peaceful electoral process. KANU shall

reject, and shall not, subscribe to, any attempt to cause disharmony among the people of
Kenya on the basis of their ethnicity, region, race or political affiliation.
