Monday, October 28, 2024 – Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei has shocked Kenyans after revealing that his controversial bill that seeks to extend the term of the president from 5 years to 7 years among other things has just been endorsed by Kenyans.
Speaking yesterday, Cherargei claimed
that most of the responses that he had so far received were in support of the
controversial piece of legislation after public participation.
He cited the proposal to have
more resources allocated to counties to have received positive comments from
members of the public.
''What I want to tell Kenyans is
that I am listening, I am reading, today it was an opportunity to listen to
Kenyans on the reservations that they support and don’t support,’’ he stated.
''I have seen that members of
the public are in support of most of the provisions specifically on more
allocation to counties from 15 to 40 percent they agree with,’’ Cherargei
added.
This comes even as Kenyans have
totally rejected Cherargei’s bill, terming it a misplaced priority.
Cherargei’s bill seeks to amend
the Constitution to extend the term limits of elected leaders from the current
5 years to 7 years.
The bill also seeks to create
the Office of the Opposition Leader and that of a Prime Minister.

Basket case. I think we have a majority of leaders in Kenya who can differentiate themselves left from right. They are so fool of themselves and want to force falsehoods to achieve their greedy selves. Kenyans crushed the senate system as they gave their views on reducing the term to 4 years not even 5. So, I wonder where this fella got his facts?
