More than half of the surveyed Kenyans expressed the belief that the government has achieved nothing during this period.

This sentiment was shared across the political spectrum, indicating a widespread agreement on the perceived lack of progress.

One of the primary concerns expressed by Kenyans, irrespective of their political affiliations, was the continuing or worsening economic hardship.

This issue ranked at the top of the public's mind and received considerable attention in the survey.

Additionally, the failure to fulfill campaign promises and various other economic issues were also highlighted as significant areas of concern.
