We’ve decided to pursue BBI to its logical conclusion.
I’ve been around these things for a while now and I know that some of the most progressive laws in Kenya were never really popular.
A good example being devolution.
Opposed vehemently by that whole backwater called ‘Mt Kenya region’, today, ask them if they’d fold their counties for that receding utopia called ‘imperial presidency’.
We do these things not because we are sure, but because we are right.
I don’t pay much attention to Kalenjins. As a collective, the Kalenjin is like the slow student. Mentally less agile. Ever in need of tuition, or remedial classes, on nationhood.
With patience, the Almighty God and his son Raila Odinga, she won’t be eternally doomed.
Opposed repeal of section 2(a) in the 90s, today she’s one of the greatest beneficiaries of a multi-party democracy she so strenuously resisted.
We carry some people on our backs not because we are strong, but because they are weak.
We’ve learnt a lot from history. What we’ve also learnt is to never forget what we’ve learnt.
Let the Supreme Court decide.

We, some of us, hope it is the majority, are still praying for the death of BBI. You cannot compare the BBI process with the process that was followed to bring us devolution. Also the BBI, compared to what we have, is not an overwhelming improvement as was the case with the 2010 constitution. Too much of piling on of the bad in the hopes that the good will carry them along. Most of the good also do not need constitutional change so the push for BBI is suspicious. Also, you cannot refuse to implement important cornerstones of our constitution and think that we will trust you to diagnose its problems and be the person to prescribe solutions.
