This structure means that part of the. reproduction cost of the labourer and his family is borne by non-capitalist agriculture which in actual fact thus subsidises heavily industrial wages. An attempt is made to quantify the degree of subsidisation.

The poll represented the will of the Kenyan people through a process and a vote that were largely free and fair. The campaign was organized in two referendum camps, respectively referred to as Bananas (“yes”) and Oranges (“no”). The proposed new constitution was rejected by 57 per cent of the votes cast, while 43 per cent voted in favour. The voter turnout was slightly above 52 per cent. The print and electronic media covered both sides of the campaign in a balanced manner. The state-controlled Kenya Broadcasting Corporation, however, was biased in favour of the “yes” campaign. The referendum campaign reconfirmed that Kenyan politics is characterized by ethno-political cleavages, and political loyalty based on ethnicity. It is reasonable to interpret the result as a popular demand for an alternative new constitution, implying that the constitutional issue has not yet been resolved.
