[Stafford Ondego,Standard]The Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) is facing serious constitutional timelines that have sent the political elite back to the drawing board. The shrewd in Kenya’s political top brass know that the initiative is on life support as a factor of constitutional time barriers for next year’s General Election. Political party primaries will have been done by May 9, in line with section 13(a) of the Election Laws (Amendment) Act of 2017. In short, there is no time to gamble with BBI ahead of August 9, for BBI cannot stop time. They will probably soon wake up to the reality of the need for Plan B, without which plan some could very well be in their last political act.
