There is something about power that affects the human condition unlike anything else. It has an uncanny ability to chan...

BBI was set up in the wake of the March 2018 rapprochement between President Uhuru Kenyatta and perennial opposition figure Raila Odinga, following the turbulent 2017-2018 election period.  Critically, the recommendations of the BBI report suggest that Kenya might not have to hold what was expected to be a national referendum on constitutional change in 2020 June as suggested by the former premier Raila Odinga in recent Kisii rally but the question that remain is how possible would this be a true deal, the impacts, is the Nation ready for that long stretch walk and the way forward of the stability of the nation. Article 255 (1) of the Kenyan Constitution, which outlines the criteria that would require a referendum to vote on potential constitutional amendments. Rather than a referendum, the amendments proposed could go through parliament under article 256 of t...
