THE STANDARD
It is all systems go as county assemblies across the country debate the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill, 2020.
The Bill has already surpassed the constitutional threshold of at least 24 counties. This means it will now move to the Senate and National Assembly whose voting is mainly ceremonial because whether they approve it or not, it will still end up at the referendum level here voters have the final say on its fate.
At least 21 counties are expected to debate the Bill today, in what is looking to be a ‘Super Tuesday’.
By 10.30am, Narok and Kakamega County assemblies had unanimously passed the BBI Bill, raising the number of counties that have voted yes to 28.
