President Uhuru Kenyatta has set the stage for a possible referendum by issuing a gazette notice extending the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) team’s mandate.

The gazette notice issued yesterday has explicitly given the 14-member committee the mandate “to propose statutory or constitutional changes necessary for the implementation of the BBI report”.
