Allies of Deputy President William Ruto have revealed why he will not lead a ‘No’ campaign in the referendum. Though he may not hold rallies against the referendum, he is planning to snub all the BBI popularisation campaigns. The legislator told Nation that they had instructed ward reps allied to the DP to conduct public participation for the sake of their constituents. Aldai MP Cornelius Serem, an ardent Ruto ally, told those championing the BBI to proceed with their plans instead of waiting for a contest with the DP, which is not forthcoming. The DP is not going to join any BBI campaigns, but we are optimistic that it will be shot down by citizens,” Mr Serem said.
