Published on January 12, 2020, the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) report has been a subject of much debate and discussion in Kenya.
However, as the country moves forward with implementing the report's recommendations, it is essential to remember that the process cannot and should not be rushed.
President Uhuru Kenyatta's appointment of a 14-member team to oversee the implementation of the BBI report is part of a well-executed plan.
The team's Terms of Reference include proposing administrative, policy, statutory, or constitutional changes necessary for the implementation of the report's recommendations, taking into account any relevant contributions made during the validation period.
As the BBI process continues, it is crucial to maintain a carefully laid out strategy that combines an understanding of all opposition and a need to be on the front foot.
President Kenyatta has led a transparent process whose development and goals are understood by those involved in its undertaking.
This approach will ensure that the BBI process wins a brighter future for Kenya.
