Kenyans Abroad regain citizenship
By OLIVER MATHENGE
dualKenyans in the diaspora who had abandoned their citizenship have regained their citizenship following the coming into force of the country's new Constitution.

All they now need to do is apply for a Kenyan identity.
At the same time, it is now not mandatory that foreigners married to Kenyans lose their citizenship if the marriage ceases to exist.

Children born to a Kenyan citizen – either mother or father – outside the country are recognised by the Constitution as citizens. This also applies to those who may have been born outside the country before August 27 even if their parents had dumped their Kenyan citizenship.

Kenyans who may have adopted a foreign child or children may seek application of citizenship for them.
Other sections that have become law immediately include the requirement that if a state of emergency is declared by the President, it can only last for 14 days unless it is extended by the National Assembly through a two-thirds majority vote and three-quarters for any subsequent extension. A State of emergency may be challenged in the Supreme Court.

From today, every Kenyan including MPs who have fought taxation of their salaries, will be required to pay tax.

Kenya will no longer be divided into eight provinces but rather the boundaries of the 47 counties.
