Busia County Assembly Speaker Bernard Wamalwa has urged residents to attend public participation forums next week and give out their views before the BBI draft bill is returned to the assembly.
Busia, Kakamega and Vihiga county assemblies have set in motion the process to pass the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) Constitutional Amendment Bill, 2020.
The Justice and Legal Affairs House Committees will now start collecting views from locals next week across the seven constituencies - Matayos, Butula, Budalang’i, Funyula, Teso South, Teso North and Nambale - as the ward reps lay the ground for passing the document.
