CHERARGEI claims majority of Kenyans support his controversial bill to extend presidential term limit among others after public participation – Look!


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.
