The road to a June referendum appears to be all clear, with the process following the timelines set by President Uhuru Kenyatta and ODM Leader Raila Odinga. 
Funding for the referendum had been the biggest challenge facing the process with Deputy President William Ruto and his allies insisting that the economy could not afford an election before 2022. 
Amos Kimunya, National Assembly Majority Leader expressed his confidence that BBI would pass. He added that the referendum will either be funded through a rationalized process or upfront.

President Uhuru Kenyatta has urged Kenyans to back the Building Bridges Initiatives (BBI), saying it will increase the amount of development resources devolved to the grassroots.
Speaking on Friday when he toured Kayole and Dandora to launch health and water projects implemented by the Nairobi Metropolitan Service (NMS), President Kenyatta specifically encouraged Nairobi residents to support BBI as it is set to address most of the problems facing them as a result of inequitable allocation of resources.
“Here in Nairobi you are allocated the same amount of funds as other areas but because of the huge population, those resources are not sufficient.

Uhuru says BBI will be a game-changer


The handshake
The Head of State said his handshake with Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party leader Raila Odinga had calmed the country and ensured that people live together in unity.
Unlike his earlier tour of Westlands Constituency last week, where an angry president asked his Deputy President William Ruto to quit government, a reconciliatory tone underpinned his speeches in Soweto, Kayole, and Dandora yesterday.
The new Soweto and Ushirika Level 2 hospitals are part of 24 similar facilities being developed by NMS across the Nairobi metropolis.
Last week, President Kenyatta
(pictured) launched the Uthiru-Muthua Health Centre and Kiamaiko Dispensary as well as water projects by NMS in Kabete and Mathare constituencies respectively.
