	Kenya - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kenya is a republic; the President of Kenya is both the chief of state and the head of government.
		Kenya has had a multi-party system since 1991 via constitutional amendment, with politicians frequently "crossing the floor" or setting up new political parties and coalitions to achieve their political aims.
		Kenya is in the process of rewriting its post-colonial constitution and its subsequent amendments that gave the president nearly unlimited powers and immunity from the law accounting for many of Kenya's current problems with corruption.
