Good, I believe everyone will support this in parliament. coz there is no way you cannot agitate 4 a referendum and go through the pain of collecting 1 million signatures if you are not sure of winning… But so as not to lock out wananchi from agitating for referendum in case of dictatorial regime in future, I would propose amendment as follows: ‘Any referendum for constitutional amendment by popular initiative shall be held at the same time as the next scheduled general election in order to minimize cost. However, the referendum may be held at any other time, provided the proponents are ready to meet the cost should the proposal be rejected in the referendum.’
