20 YES RALLIES

The ‘yes' team is set to hold 20 national rallies countrywide.

A Party of National Unity-PNU- coalition meeting held Tuesday in Nairobi resolved that MPs allied to the green camp will also hold separate meetings in a bid to ensure every Kenyan is duly informed on the proposed constitution ahead of August 4th referendum.

The three hour meeting was chaired by Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka was attended by at least 40 MPs from various parties.

Addressing the press shortly after the meeting Kalonzo called for tolerance during the campaign period.

Meanwhile, the Committee of Experts wants Kenyans to carry copies of the proposed constitution when attending meetings convened by politicians so as to ensure that they are not mislead on the contents of the draft.

Speaking to KBC, committee director Ekuru Aukot said the move will enable Kenyans to detect any misinterpretation by politicians who alter the contents of the draft to push for the rejection of the same.

Aukot's call comes as the committee moves to allay fears that civic education was in jeopardy following Treasury's failure to release 200 million shillings needed for the program.
