One of the questions in my mind as the seven Court of Appeal judges delivered their ruling on the BBI process was whether or not a commoner can initiate and successfully change the Constitution. From the ruling it was clear an amendment by popular initiative has to be done by the people.

That the word ‘popular’ does not necessarily refer to the number of people who will eventually support at the signing process or who would eventually be excited by it, but the idea for changing the Constitution has to be initiated popularly.
