The nation is technically back to the campaign season, courtesy of the new referendum push being championed by a section of leaders led by opposition chief Raila Odinga.
He has since repeatedly advised Kenyans to prepare for the same, before reiterating the same in Rongo, Migori county on Thursday.
And though already facing opposition from other leaders, especially ones drawn from one faction of the ruling Jubilee Party, Raila is assured of full backing from his Luo Nyanza backyard.
Having placed himself at the helm of political affairs in that part of the nation, where he also enjoys unquestionable support, the people will readily accept and back his new bid.
Also, considering the fact that he is championing for among others, the expansion of the executive, the people who have for long backed his presidential ambitions will follow suit hoping that he will land a top spot.
Also judging by the same, the region which has for long lamented of exclusion and lack of consideration for developmental initiatives due to its longtime loyalty to the opposition will support the bid, hoping to have one of its own in the seat, resulting to government goodies.
This is because the push is based on eradicating the current exclusive system, and the Luo group being among the biggest communities in the nation will obviously be considered for several slots.
Considering the former Prime Minister's age and political experience, the people will consider his proposal the best way forward and entrust him with their vote.
With President Uhuru Kenyatta yet to speak on the reignited push, and Raila basing the referendum on their March 9 truce, the constitutional amendment issue seems like a joint decision between the two.
Therefore, this will make the region and others consider the move a well-thought decision and follow suit.
