A new poll suggests that 60 per cent, a significant majority of Kenyans — including those in Deputy President William Ruto’s strongholds — want the BBI report subjected to a public vote. Only 14 per cent of respondents said the BBI task force report should be taken to Parliament as the route for implementation. Referendum support in Nyanza stood at 66 per cent followed by Rift Valley at 65 per cent. In Central, the support was 6 per cent, Western 54 per cent and Eastern 53 per cent. The poll shows, however, that 69 per cent do not know the contents of the BBI report.
