Court Halts President Uhuru Kenyatta s Quest To Change Kenya s Constitution

NAIROBI, Kenya — A court on May 14 quashed an attempt by Kenya President Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and opposition leader Raila Amollo Odinga to change the East African country’s constitution. In its ruling, a five-judge bench of the High Court said that Kenyatta acted illegally when he took the steering wheel to drive the Building Bridges Initiative to a United Kenya, the vehicle he was using to seek the constitutional changes. Kenyatta formed the initiative following his surprise March 9, 2018, “handshake” with Odinga on the steps of Harambee House, the President’s office in Nairobi. Odinga was Kenyatta’s primary challenger in the 2013 and 2017 presidential elections, marred by much violence between their supporters.

[File, Standard] As Kenyans usher in the New Year and the political destiny largely lies in the hands of President Uhuru Kenyatta, Deputy President William Ruto and ODM leader Raila Odinga will likely play a key role in shaping the upcoming events. While the President and Raila are fully committed to the passage of the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) report, Dr Ruto has been of a contrary view on the urgency to change the Constitution. With a new party, United Democratic Alliance (UDA) linked to Ruto in the offing, according to his allies, it remains to be seen how he will navigate the stormy water in his ruling Jubilee Party and the place of Jubilee Asili Centre, a parallel office he opened in June.
