President Uhuru Kenyatta with ODM leader Raila Odinga at Kisumu International Airport on May 30, 2021. [Benjamin Sakwa, Standard]ODM leader Raila Odinga has said they, as appellants, will respect the decision of the court on the Building Bridges Initiative(BBI). "When the lower court declared the BBI process illegal, we respected their decision, but sought redress from the higher court. "We cannot, therefore, object that which we fought for, if the court's verdict will be against us, we shall respect their decision," he said. Appellate court President Daniel Musinga said the seven-judge-bench that heard the case had made careful deliberations as the four-day hearing came to a close last week.
