ODM leader Raila Odinga, who jointly with President Uhuru Kenyatta were the key promoters of the push to amend the Constitution, yesterday welcomed the Appeal Court’s decision which found the initiative as unconstitutional.

Mr Odinga described the judgment as “remarkable as it forms part of the continuing conversation on the future of this country and the significance of the new Constitution”.
