The calls for constitutional amendments led by ODM Party leader Raila Odinga are gaining ground and traction even in Jubilee Party's camp despite both President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto being against the plan.
The referendum calls comes even after Uhuru and Raila had vowed to work together but the two are against each other in these calls for constitutional amendments.
Kuria leaders, led by Kuria East MP Maisori Kitayama , have backed the referendum calls by the opposition leaders in a bid to have their backyard scrapped from Migori County.
''We want our own county because we feel that Migori, where we are at the moment, is not serving our interests effectively, we are still lagging behind in development,''stated Maisori.
The region's leaders, most of who supported the Jubilee Party administration for its second term,during the weekend told journalists they would stop at nothing to have a shift of the Kenyan governance structure.
A Jubilee MP in Nyamira County has also said that the constitutional changes should be done to end the political differences that comes after every election year.
Nyamira County Women Representative Jerusha Momanyi said Kenyans should go into a referendum to change the constitution so that more leaders can be accommodated into the government.
"This is the right time we should change the constitution to end the political heat that comes after every election year," she said.
A number of opposition-affiliated MPs have vowed to rally the citizens behind the suggested amendments to the Constitution to alter the governance structure of the country.
