Watch Kenya's Parliament Live: National Assembly and Senate on YouTube
This player shows the Parliament of Kenya YouTube channel when it is live. If nothing is streaming, it may say the video is unavailable, so use the official link below.
What Is This Feed?
Kenya's Parliament has two houses in Nairobi, the National Assembly and the Senate. It streams sittings and committee work on its official YouTube channel, in English and Kiswahili.
When Can I Watch?
The houses typically sit from Tuesday to Thursday when in session, with recesses during the year. Nairobi is eight or nine hours ahead of Chicago, so afternoon sittings arrive here in the morning. Schedules change, so confirm on the official site.
Why This Feed Matters?
Kenya's 2010 constitution was written to spread power and strengthen citizens' voices. Open streaming fits that promise, and young Kenyans have shown that they will use digital tools to hold their leaders to account.
