RAILA ODINGA tells Muslims that there is no room for fresh views on BBI – The train has already left the station

Monday, November 30, 2020 – Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party leader, Raila Odinga, has said there is no more time to engage Kenyans on the proposed constitutional amendments under the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI).

Speaking in Mombasa on Sunday, Raila said those with contrary views were within their democratic right to do so.

He spoke aboard the Tamarind dhow when he engaged leaders from the Majlis Ulama and Kenya Muslim National Advisory Council (Kemnac), who presented their memorandum on the BBI.

“As things stand, there is no room to accommodate fresh views on BBI. 

“The Constitution is a living document. The gaps identified will be filled through amendments over time.

This is the first amendment to the 2010 Constitution. Even the best constitution in the world has been amended many times,” he said.

The Muslim leaders were led by Kemnac chair, Juma Ngao and Majlis Ulama’s Sheikh Rishard Raja Ramadhan.

This follows the NCCK meeting held in Eldoret at the weekend which recommended that politicians will never be allowed to address the church unless it’s a special spiritual message to the congregants. The clerics also accused some politicians of using church platforms to attack their enemies whenever they are given a chance to address the congregation. “The regional committee of the NCCK North Rift has assembled here in Eldoret to share some grievances.” “We are very much concerned about the insecurity of the country and from what we have witnessed a few months ago from our leaders, we want to make it clear that we don’t want politi...
