• 4 May 2021 in Senate: ask people around this country on what is so fundamentally life changing in this Bill to make us pass it by all means possible before the next election in the midst of a pandemic, you will get blank stares. Nobody will tell you the reason BBI is so urgent, and that includes its top proponents. Our Constitution will endure if every citizen is determined to exercise his or her duty set out in Article 3(1) to defend the Constitution. Therefore, I stand here today in defence of our Constitution as a patriotic Kenyan. It appears to me that the real ... view
