so what is the next step after signing this thing?
amend the constitution? Mpenzi and I tried telling you last time that amending this constitution by popular initiative is not easy - IT MUST BE PASSED AND ACCEPTED BY THE MAJORITY OF COUNTY ASSEMBLIES. before showing up in the national assembly. the constitution does not specify what should happen when the popular initiative is not passed by the county assemblies (i would assume it dies off)

I will if i find it near.
A small bird tells me money has been poored to silence the mpigs with a threat of recall. Hence its a scare tactic.
Times are heard and thus ukisikia penye hii pesa iko niambieni jameni.

Amendment by popular initiative

257. (1) An amendment to this Constitution may be proposed by a popular initiative
signed by at least one million registered voters.

(2) A popular initiative for an amendment to this Constitution may be in the

(3) If a popular initiative is in the form of a general suggestion, the promoters
of that popular initiative shall formulate it into a draft Bill.

(4) The promoters of a popular initiative shall deliver the draft Bill and the supporting signatures to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission, which shall verify that the initiative is supported by at least
one million registered voters.

(5) If the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission is satisfied that the initiative meets the requirements of this Article, the Commission shall submit the draft Bill to each county assembly for consideration within three
months after the date it was submitted by the Commission.

(6) If a county assembly approves the draft Bill within three months after the date it was submitted by the Commission, the speaker of the county assembly shall deliver a copy of the draft Bill jointly to the Speakers of the

matter mentioned in 255 (1), the proposed amendment shall be submitted to
the people in a referendum.

What happens if county assemblies fail to pass the thing?
