The Service Party (TSP) leader Mwangi Kiunjuri now says he fully supports constitutional reforms raised by the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition leadership and that the Constitution needs to be changed.

Kiunjuri argues that the move will bring inclusivity between Kenya Kwanza and Azimio, sort out issues of representation, historical injustices and ensure all those left out are included in the bipartisan talks.

The Laikipia East MP wants the soon-to-be-formed bipartisan parliamentary committee to not only address grievances raised by Azimio leader Raila Odinga but also expand its mandate to review the Constitution.

He has called for the inclusion of all stakeholders in the course among them church leaders, business people and the common mwananchi in addition to the Members of Parliament.

Kiunjuri however opposed the inclusion of international mediators in order to have a fair process.

He said he will be at the forefront in pushing for the constitutional reviews adding that it does not matter whether he will remain alone on the course but would soldier on even if some people will hate and try to fight him.

Kiunjuri pointed out that those who did not vote were the majority meaning about 14.8 million Kenyans did not want President Ruto and thus their grievances should be considered.

He asked top leaders not to brag that they have Kenyans on their side since both Azimio and Kenya Kwanza enjoy half-followers in the country.
