BBI process declared unconstitutional by high court

So who is this special 'individual' who is supposed to initiate constitution revision?

Because according to the constitution, amendments can be initiated by the people or Parliament

Are MP Junet Mohammed and Waweru Tanzanians?? because they initiated BBI
 
I agree devolution has to be strengthened. But you don't strengthen in one element only.

The current county government are getting more than what the constitution allows but due to corruption they can't show anything for it.
They also need to expand their tax bracket
 
Did you ask yourself how much has the so-called BBI expended and squandered so far!??? If you could not prevent such a blatant dissipation in thje first place, then you know who has the real power: you (the people) or him (the president).
The people have power that is why the court ruled the way it ruled. The politicians were trying to change the constitution to benefit themselves without involving Kenyans in the process and also without following the correct procedure.
 
Even the president in his personal capacity can propose an amendment but the judgment has given the proposal and recommendations on what they failed to do
 
Not to mention a further appeal to the supreme court which will take more time.

Are you kidding, yeah!??? More time for dilly-dallying means more wastage of public funds. And that what the crooked politicians would always wish for as their last resort. The rather lose this end but gain then other. It's a kind of ^I missed their breakfast but found them at the dinner table!^
 
Naona huelewi. Nobody is opposing more money to the counties. We all want more money to be devolved. The issue here is that the correct procedure was not followed. Sheria lazima ifuatwe jinsi inavyostahili. This constitutional amendment may have had good intentions but unfortunately it was rushed and did not follow the correct procedure.

Which means it is coming again fresh and alive --- unopposed, because this time round it will be considered something valuable and well-thought of by the ^experts,^ regardless of the fact it is the same unconstitutional document from the same self-seeking & time-serving politicians.

BBI will pass mpende msipende
 


The two facts alone -- taking it so rushy and being unprocedural -- makes the whole thing smell fishy.

The president is a Kenyan. Meaning BBI is very legal. If that is so, the court ruling is inconsequential and will be thrown out soon.

Even Maraga said Parliament should be disbanded and 2017 election was illegal etc etc.. but here we are.
 
Which procedure did it not follow. It was initiated by Junet Mohammed who is an Mp and Waweru of Jubilee who is a citizen.

All other processes have been followed. Tuache bias na kuegemea kisiasa.

I wonder if those opposing the president's proposal are Indians or something!???

A normal mwananchi should use popular initiative. The president should use parliament. That is what the courts said. Tatizo ni kwamba hujasikiliza hio judgement vizuri, umekuja tu kutoa maoni bila kusikiliza hio judgement. Sasa president ataanzisha aje popular initiative na yeye sio private citizen? Mimi I am currently listening to the judgement, I suggest you do the same

Have you read the Court's ruling!???
 
Which one element is being strengthened?

And stop lying about counties. They have been receiving 15% of budget which is the minimum set by law.

Corruption is everywhere and you must be blind or young to not see the effects of devolution in every part of the country.
 
90% of the issues proposed in the BBI don't need the constitution to be changed, they càn be changed through normal legislature. E.g this one about revenue sharing between national and county government was just added there to seduce governors and MCAs.

You don't need a referendum to change the law on revenue sharing and even if you did need a referendum, The law talks about MINIMUM revenue that should be shared with counties, it never mentions maximum, so if Uhuru really wanted more money to counties all he needs to do is talk with treasury and all stakeholders to increase the revenue to counties from 15% to even 50% if he felt like.
