The plan to change the presidential term limit is being pushed by Fafi MP Yakub Salah.


Blogger Dennis Itumbi has dismissed as 'stupid' plan by the UDA MP to increase the Presidential term limit.

In a tweet on Tuesday morning, the blogger said President William Ruto does not equally endorse such a plan.

"This move is STUPID! It does not enjoy the signature or the nod of President @WilliamsRuto - I oppose it!"

The plan to change the presidential term limit is being pushed by Fafi MP Yakub Salah.

He said the age limit of a president should be capped at 75 years and term limits to be abolished.

Ruto being at the age of 55 will mean he will have 20 years to serve Kenyans if the plan succeeds.

Activist Boniface Mwangi has also warned President William Ruto of dire consequences if he dares to change the Presidential term limits.

In a statement on Facebook, while reacting to a newspaper report indicating that there are plans to remove the presidential term limits, Mwangi said any such attempt will be disastrous to Ruto's political career.

"When people show you their true colours, believe them. We shall resist the plans to remove term limits. Believe it or not, these dangerous plans will make William a one-term president. Any attempt to change the constitution to make William president for life will fail. Miserably," he said.
