State House is where power lives. Since 1963, every decision that shaped Kenya has passed through its gates: Kenyatta's consolidation, Moi's purges, Kibaki's technocracy, Uhuru's handshake, Ruto's hustler cabinet. The building itself is a colonial relic, but the machinery inside is purely Kenyan. This trail follows the patterns of executive power across five presidencies: how cabinets are formed, how opposition is managed, how money flows, how succession is negotiated. State House does not change. The men inside it do.
