1. Democracy should be about one man one vote, not some mpigs sitting in parliament to choose the leader, or some unelected electoral college sitting somewhere to select the leader. Also we have seen the MCA madness in the counties and we wouldnt want such shennanigans to creep into bunge.
2. The proposed parliamentary system is upuss since representation in parliament is skewed against some regions with some constituencies having double or triple the population of others. So saying that the leader of the party with most seats in parliament ie MPs will become the PM is very unfair to some regions. It would only work if all constituencies have same number of voters.
3. Sharing of the top seats among the five big tribes and distributing the rest among the other tribes is taking the country back to the stone age.

Why don't you wait for the report first ?

Don't be like the tanga tanga crew who are up in arms yet they have no idea what is in the BBI report.

We can only make intelligent guesses.

One that I know is the health services commission. This was proposed by all players in the health sector and even the PSC.

The BBI has recommended a parliamentary system with a ceremonial president.

The President would, however, remain the head of government and the commander-in-chief of defense forces.

In what is likely to shake the country's political landscape, the PM will be elected by Parliament from the party that wins majority seats, shifting the battle for executive power to Parliament.

To address the question of exclusivity, the 14-member panel proposes that the president, deputy president, the prime minister and the two deputies should be shared out by at least five different tribes.

However, communities that miss out on the big five plum jobs at the apex of power would share ministerial positions either based on tribes or regions to give the cabinet a national face.

The cabinet would be appointed from among members of Parliament.

According to the BBI team's findings, the accumulation of power among the few Kenyan tribes has disadvantaged small communities who feel excluded from government, hence brewing ethnic polarization.

“What we are recommending is what Kenyans, political formations and various state agencies asked for. We are not adding anything. Most Kenyans said they wanted a parliamentary system with an expanded executive,” a member of the BBI told the Star in confidence.

He went on: “After looking at the views submitted to us, we are convinced that a parliamentary system is the way to go.”

If the BBI contains such proposal to create 2 centres of power, and where a president elected via universal suffrage hands most of the power to a PM appointed by fat cats in parliament, then it should die on arrival.

2 centres of power is recipe for disaster.

Quick question...

Will the BBI be presented to Kenyans in the form of referendum questions or will it be discussed in parliament and exposed to a vote on the floor of the house?
