One Kenya, one agenda
The Kenya Declaration
Ten commitments that hold this campaign together. We are not against Parliament. We are for a Parliament whose cost is proportionate to the country that pays for it.
We affirm. We reject. We demand. We commit.
The ten points
- 01
We affirm that public service is a privilege, not a pathway to personal enrichment.
- 02
We affirm that every shilling of public money belongs to the people of Kenya.
- 03
We affirm that Members of Parliament deserve fair, competitive and dignified pay.
- 04
We reject allowances and privileges that duplicate what a salary already covers.
- 05
We reject preferential credit facilities unavailable to the citizens who fund them.
- 06
We demand that remuneration be simple, transparent and published in plain language.
- 07
We demand that the cost of Parliament be proportionate to the means of the country.
- 08
We commit to lawful, peaceful and constitutional means — beginning with this petition.
- 09
We commit to a campaign for reform, not a campaign against Parliament.
- 10
We commit to one Kenya, one agenda: prudent public spending that funds our development.
Public service is a privilege, not a pathway to personal enrichment.
The full argument, the figures and the constitutional basis are set out in the parliamentary remuneration policy brief.
