Kenyan MP's have finally reached a consensus on a new draft constitution.

After many years of argument and two weeks of negotiations in the town of Naivasha, they have come out with a document which includes details on the devolution of power and the creation of a national senate.

Ethnicity in politics and unaccountability in government are some the issues discussed during talks.

So have the members of parliament thoroughly addressed these concerns in the draft document?

Focus on Africa's Sophie Ikenye spoke to Odindo Opyata, a lawyer and the executive director of a human rights lobby group, Haki Jamii.
