In a statement, ICJ strongly opposed calls for a referendum at a time when Kenya is battling a pandemic, corruption and other ills.
“Kenya is grappling with many concerns ranging from corruption, mismanagement of public funds, socio-economic challenges, poor leadership, and negative ethnicity.”
“With these lingering challenges, we remain concerned that the calls for a referendum should not be the priority for our country at this time,” ICJ said.
ICJ further rejected the recommendations in the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI), saying that they undermine the rule of law.
Thursday, January 14, 2021 – The controversial Building Bridges Initiative has suffered a major setback after the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ) Kenya rejected it.
