A section of leaders from the North Rift have called for constitutional amendments to address challenges that they say have persisted for over 15 years since the promulgation of the 2010 Constitution.
The leaders, allied to President William Ruto's United Democratic Alliance (UDA), want a referendum to be held on the same date as the 2027 General Election to save costs and ensure maximum participation.
Speaking during a service at AIC Boma Church in Kapsabet, Nandi Hills MP Bernard Kitur said it was time for the country to begin the process of amending the Constitution. He noted that although the drafters of the 2010 Constitution had foresight, several shortcomings have emerged over the years that must now be corrected.
