The International Crisis Group published on 30 May 2017 a report titled "Kenya's Rift Valley: Old Wounds, Devolution's New Anxieties."

Upcoming Kenyan Presidential Election
World Politics Review published on 6 February 2017 an analysis titled "The Last Chance for the Old Guard of Kenya's Opposition" by Tiffany L. McGriff, international affairs fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations.
The author suggests that Kenya's presidential election in August 2017 may be the last opportunity for former prime minister Raila Odinga, now 72, in his battle against current President Uhuru Kenyatta.
