The ODM party leader Raila Odinga has today rubbished claims from Ruto's allies that he is using the BBI to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta in 2022.
While addressing the senators from central Kenya today, Raila revealed that the BBI content is unstoppable train and will not be stopped by any force or allied.
He has however welcome leaders from the Deputy President William Ruto's camp to attend the BBI meetings saying that the script is for all Kenyans
“It will be misguided and unfortunate for anyone to think they can sabotage the BBI exercise….. I have not said I want to be president in 2022, that is how misguided people are,” he said.
He has also faulted a section of leaders for turning the BBI discussion into a 2022 succession politics.
During yesterday's press conference, the legislators led by the senate majority leader Kipchumba Murkomen accused the Pro-BBI for misusing public funds and using the BBI script to gain political influence.
They, however, said that they will attend the rallies to fight for radical changes in the script and also through personal contribution in the assembly
“We are opposed to the use of public funds in the organised BBI rallies unless appropriated by Parliament or county assemblies. Our participation and organisation of BBI rallies shall be through personal contributions,” Murkomen said in his statement.
