United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Secretary General Cleophas Malalah has dismissed Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga’s proposal to have a referendum to implement the bipartisan talks recommendations.
Addressing the media on Friday, December 1, Malalah said the Kenya Kwanza government is keen on delivering its promises to the people and termed the idea a dream.
“The idea of us going into a referendum can be summarized to a person who is living in eutopia. A person who is at cloud, dreaming and fantasizing.
“At the moment, the leadership of this country is keen to ensure that we have an economic revolution. We are keen on delivering the 172 promises that we gave to Kenyans,” said Malalah.

The UDA SG urged the opposition to shun away from the referendum idea adding that the Kenya Kwanza administration will not be deterred.
“We shall not be deterred on confused by the BBI stories we want to ask our political opponents to shun away from imagining that we can go for a referendum right now. We are focused to ensure we deliver the mandate the people of Kenyan bestowed on us,” added Malalah.
On Wednesday Raila observed that the creation of the office of the leader of the opposition and office of the Prime Cabinet Secretary needs a referendum to stop mischievous individuals from blocking the report by moving to court.
"Besides it is constitutional requirement that such significant restructure of government must go through referendum to avoid mischievousness that may be played by some people going to court," he stated.
