Deputy President William Ruto has asked Kenyans and his supporters to stop politicising the Building Bridges Initiative report which was launched last week.

The DP's team has been breathing fire over the report, with a section of the supporters recommending parliamentary initiative for implementation.

So divisive were their calls, that President Uhuru Kenyatta recently accused them of political conmanship when he toured Central Kenya.

While touring Maragua on Friday, Dr Ruto seemed to strike a reconciliatory tone, asking Kenyans to allow those in charge to give directives on the BBI report.

"Let BBI not worry you. We are going to streamline everything well. There is no problem about it. Let nobody bother you about the matter. We shall make everything better," he said.

"What we should be concerned about is unity and tribal politics. We pledged with President Uhuru Kenyatta to ensure that happens. We also agreed to ensure development is given priority. We are not ready for drama and theatrics."

While a team leaning to ODM leader Raila Odinga has been pushing for a referendum, those supporting Ruto asked for the parliamentary initiative on the implementation of BBI.

On Friday, Ruto's team changed tune, insisting that they were comfortable with whichever means President Uhuru Kenyatta wants the BBI implemented.

“We fully support the BBI report, especially on matters of agriculture and livestock, inclusivity and unity in diversity, security, socio-economic development and opportunities for the youth," stated resolutions read by Kajiado South MP Katoo ole Metito.

"As advised by President Uhuru Kenyatta, we encourage all our constituents to read, internalise, reflect and debate the contents of the BBI report."
