    A new report is warning that Kenya faces an 84 percent chance of election-related violence in the 2027 General Election. The Electoral Vulnerability Index, released by the Kofi Annan Foundation, places Kenya's risk score at 45.4—below the regional average, but still high enough to raise alarm. The report points to a familiar pattern of disputed elections, ethnic mobilization, and deep public mistrust in state institutions. Brenda Wanga reports on how Kenya's recent history of political violence is shaping fears ahead of the next vote.
