Attorney-General Kihara Kariuki on Tuesday defended President Uhuru Kenyatta’s participation in the push to amend the Constitution through the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) and urged the Court of Appeal to overturn a judgment that halted referendum plans.
In submissions through several lawyers, including Solicitor General Kennedy Ogeto, the AG told the appellate court that any Kenyan, including the Head of State, has a right to initiate changes to the Constitution.
