BBI: Court of Appeal judges give verdict
The Court of Appeal is giving its verdict on the President's controversial three-year quest to change the constitution, a ruling that could shake up the political landscape less than a year before elections.
President Uhuru Kenyatta argues his proposed modifications to the 2010 constitution will help end repeated cycles of election violence, a hot-button issue that has divided the political elite.
The reforms came about following a rapprochement between Mr Kenyatta and his erstwhile opponent Raila Odinga and a famous handshake between the two men after post-election fighting in 2017 left dozens of people dead.
The Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) seeks notably to dilute the current winner-takes-all electoral system blamed by Mr Kenyatta for poll unrest, and create new posts including one of prime minister.
