Proponents of the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) have crafted a new strategy to popularise the Bill that will see top leaders and experts dispatched to radio talk shows.
BBI Secretariat co-chair Junet Mohammed said they may seek a review of some of the Covid-19 protocols after President Uhuru Kenyatta capped the number of attendees of social events at 100, essentially blocking town hall meetings.
The President banned political rallies for 30 days, a move that dealt a blow to the BBI campaigns.
Northern Water Collector Tunnel Almost Complete Ahead Of June Launch
Construction of the Northern Water Collector Tunnel is 91 percent complete, Cabinet Secretary for Sports Amina Mohammed has said.
Four Cabinet Secretaries led by Amina visited the multi-billion World Bank-funded project at Makomboki in Muranga County on Tuesday and ascertained that the tunnel will be launched before June of this year.
The CS said phase one of the project will be complete by 30th April of this year as piping is ongoing from the Kirogo water treatment to the Gigiri area in Nairobi where the main tank is constructed.
The National Development Implementation Communication Cabinet Committee led by Amina lauded the efforts put in to ensure the project is complete in due course.
