9. Why would Raila Odinga want to take Kenya back to the DARD DAYS that his father Jaramogi Oginga Odinga spoke against? Why is Raila Odinga ignoring the voice of Musalia Mudavadi and other Kenyans who have spoken against the return of imperial presidency to our beloved Kenya?
10. My guess is, Uhuru and Raila have agreed on something that we Kenyans do not know about. Could be, Uhuru wants to cleanse himself by helping Raila become president. Raila has realised that he has a perfect shot this time. Raila therefore wants to become an imperial president.
11. Raila Odinga has a right, just as any Kenyan citizen, to become a president. The only thing is, Kenyans do not want a BBI Report being pushed by "underground masters who ignore the voice of the people" to borrow Jaramogi Oginga's words. Jaramogi's words should be honored.
12. Kenya needs independent institutions. A careful balance of power. Not a powerful president who can interfere with the judiciary. The Senate's role in revenue sharing should not be tampered with. The Cabinet should be made up of professionals e.g. a scientist as CS for health.
13. Kenya belongs to all Kenyans dead, alive and unborn. Kenya does not belong to Uhuru Kenyatta and Raila Odinga and their political family histories. In 60 years most of us will be long dead and lying quietly in our graves. We must imagine a Kenya beyond our political egos.
14. The BBI Report should be an opportunity for Kenyans to read slowly together, discuss slowly together, debate slowly together and review the BBI Report slowly together because it is going to ammend KENYA's 2010 constitution and amending a constitution is a VERY BIG DEAL.
15. It is disturbing when a whole professor Adams Oloo says that only Uhuru Kenyatta can authorize any changes to the BBI Report. Does Kenya's 2010 constitution belong to Uhuru Kenyatta? Is Kenya North Korea such that Kenyans must dance only to the music that Uhuru authorizes?

Raila Odinga studied in Germany. He speaks German and knows Germany's history. He knows the dangers of imperial presidency ~read Adolf Hitler's regime killed 6,000,000 people and caused World War 2. He knows dead Daniel Arap Moi's regime. Why does Raila want imperial presidency?!

I will not hate Ruto because you do.
I will not love Raila because you do.

But I will debate with you respectfully and agree, disagree or agree to disagree. We are not obliged by any laws to only agree. ⚖
The Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops has critiqued the BBI Report: IEBC independence is threatened; proposed Kenya Police Council under CS Interior [i.e. President] could turn Kenya into a POLICE STATE; while Handshake permitted dialogue, why does BBI Report ELIMINATE debate?
