Details of Raila, Waiguru's Private Meeting

On Tuesday, December 3, Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru and ODM leader Raila Odinga met at his Capitol Hill office in Nairobi.

In a meeting that nearly took one-hour, the two discussed the handshake and the Building Bridges Initiative report.

According to Daily Nation, they talked about what would follow, now that the report had already been launched.

"I shared my opinion with Odinga on what should be done to realise the recommendations by the BBI taskforce,” Waiguru told the publication.

She stated that civic education needed to be done across the country.

"The electoral body will then take the proposed constitution draft to the county assemblies where we need at least half the counties to pass the bill, then to the National Assembly where we will only need 50 per cent of those present to pass," she stated.

On his part, the former prime minister told reporters that the two had discussed national cohesion and inclusivity.

The BBI report was launched by President Uhuru Kenyatta at Bomas of Kenya on Wednesday, November 27, 2019. 

According to the BBI website, after the launch, people are expected to peruse the document, and then town hall meetings and workshops will be organised throughout the country.
