Two Anglican bishops have lauded the High Court for derailing the BBI train and asked the proponents to involve all stakeholders in constitutional changes to ensure it is a people-driven initiative. He thanked the Judiciary for ensuring decorum and order and applauded the President for not contesting the decision in public. However, Bungoma Anglican Bishop George Mechumo called on President Uhuru Kenyatta to abandon the BBI and concentrate on fixing the economy and fighting Covid-19. Mechumo said that BBI Bill is already time-barred. “We are not against BBI, but it should be taken back to the common mwananchi to understand what it entails,” Okude said.
