We all know that babu's plan is to use the referendum to gauge his popularity and see if he has a chance in 2017. This referendum if all goes according to his plans should happen when Jubilee government is 2-1/2 years ie half way through. The referendum has nothing to do with the mwenyenchi yet it's going to cost us 8B. It's the reason why babu has hired experts to look for no brainer and obvious question for the referendum that will get an automatic yes. But he has a major challenge in that most of the things that can get an easy nod can be amended by/through parliament without a referendum and the fear for babu becomes that he will become a joke if it goes wrong and lawyers like Ahmednasir will have a field day when they go to court to stop the planned referendum on technicalities.
So as much as I would like to see this referendum go all the way to the debe, it will never see the light of day and the biggest beneficiaries will be the lawyers yet again and as usual.
BBI will solve it :)
