After a month’s delay, the much-awaited report of the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) was yesterday launched with the hope it will herald a new Kenya that is free of divisive political hostilities.

The report, a product of a 14 member task-force, was launched before over 5000 delegates at the Bomas of Kenya, Nairobi.
