At the BBI reception in Kisii, the President appeared in the company of ODM leader Raila Odinga, Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i and Kisii Governor Evans Ongwae.
Other political leaders who visited include Jubilee Secretary-General Raphael Tuju, Siaya Senator James Orengo, Suna East MP Junet Mohammed and Kisii Senator Sam Ongeri.
The President said people should read the document before deciding to vote for it or not.
