The party wants the court to rule that the entire BBI process culminating in the launch of the bill was done unconstitutionally in the usurpation of people’s exercise of sovereign power.
“A declaration that at the time of launch of the BBI Bill 2020 and the collection of endorsement signatures, there was a legislation governing the collection, presentation, and verification signatures nor a legal framework or administrative structure to govern the conduct of a referendum in the country.”
It also says that IEBC, which is among the respondents in the case, cannot exercise its powers under Article 257, which is to receive, verify, and approve the bill under the current circumstances.
The party also wants the court to issue orders barring the BBI taskforce and the BBI secretariat from submitting the collected signatures to the electoral body.
It further wants the verification process of the signatures and the following process to be stopped until all Kenyans are explained to about the amendment in meaningful public participation.
On Friday, Raila told BBI opposers the document is good for Kenyans and that the journey continues.
