National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah on Thursday met the committee tasked with overseeing the implementation of the 10-Point Agenda and the NADCO Report, receiving its first detailed progress brief amid growing scrutiny over how the bipartisan agreements are being executed.
The committee, chaired by Senator Agnes Zani and vice chair Javas Bigambo, presented an initial report outlining milestones achieved so far in tracking the two frameworks. Ichung’wah said he was impressed by the progress and committed to working closely with the team to strengthen communication around the reforms.
“We committed to a joint effort to amplify the committee’s work and the positive strides made in delivering the 10-Point Agenda, the foundation of our broad-based working agreement,” he said after the meeting.
The 10-Point Agenda was crafted as part of the political truce that cooled months of opposition-led protests over the high cost of living and electoral reforms. It laid out commitments on economic recovery, electoral justice, inclusivity, and strengthening key institutions. The agenda later fed into the National Dialogue Committee (NADCO) process, which brought together leaders from Kenya Kwanza and Azimio to resolve contentious national issues.
The NADCO Report, released after months of negotiations, proposed far-reaching reforms including reconstituting the IEBC, restructuring revenue-sharing formulas, and establishing mechanisms to curb the rising cost of living. However, its implementation has been slow, drawing criticism from civil society and the opposition, who accuse the government of dragging its feet.
Ichung’wah insisted the government remains committed. He said the committee’s progress reaffirmed that the work is underway despite the political noise.
“We acknowledge that both the 10-Point Agenda and the NADCO Report address critical issues central to the development and progress of our nation,” he said.
Senator Zani noted that while the reforms are complex, the committee has recorded “encouraging gains,” including harmonizing timelines and establishing monitoring tools for each commitment.
The meeting comes as Parliament prepares to debate several proposals stemming from NADCO, including controversial electoral reforms expected to spark fresh political contestation.
