Rongai Member of Parliament Raymond Moi has exuded confidence in the battery of lawyers picked to appeal the High Court ruling that annulled the Constitution Amendment Bill 2020.
Raymond spoke during the launch of a newly built Konoyo Primary School in Soin Ward fully funded by the National Government-Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF) in the 2019/2020 financial year. I have high hopes that the lawyers will convince the Court of Appeal to overturn the ruling made by the High Court. Filing an appeal is the right direction to ensure the needed amendments are done, said Moi.

MCAs have faulted the High Court ruling that declared the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) null and void.
Speaking at a Nairobi hotel yesterday, caucus of MCAs leadership forum chair Meru MCA Victor Kareithi expressed disappointment in the Judges decision.
Mr Kareithi argued that the court s decision amounts to taking away the sovereign power of Kenyans in amending the Constitution.
The MCAs insisted the BBI report was not a product of the Handshake but rather about the people.
