\begin{abstract}
The primacy of common good in providing an environment that allows
people and communities, to reach their fulfilment effectively and almost
entirely cannot be overstated. ~Besides, the architecture of devolution
in Kenya does not only affirm the centrality of common good in our
governance but is instrumental in moulding a governance structure and
national psyche pivotal in providing an agenda to rally the entire
nation towards a common good \emph{-- Consultation, Cooperation for
Mutual relation.} Nonetheless, the political practice and ideology of
having a constitution without constitutionalism: an outright disregard
for the rule of law in governance without creating new positive
realities for national political, social and economic accommodation and
shared prosperity; discrete and disproportionate share of national
resources are sad realities that Kenya is grappling with despite the
governance reforms under the Constitution of Kenya, 2010 in pursuit of
national renewal. The study asserts that indigenous knowledge (IK)
provides an understanding of indigenous governance, social, ethical and
spiritual systems upon which the pursuit of common good under devolution
can be founded upon.%
