By Dr Paul Bundi Human beings are endowed with remarkable resilience, which can only be broken when they choose to give up. Says Viktor Frankl in his seminal book, Man's Search for Meaning; ''it is a peculiarity of man that he can only live by looking to the future-sub specie aeternitatis. And this is his salvation in thd most difficult moments of his existence, although he sometimes has to force his mind to the task.'' Man's life is primarily driven by the desire for future, the unshakable belief that the future holds promise.

NUMBERS THAT SHOCKS!! The earliest we can have a referendum is 2019... look at this maths 3 months from now for signature collection 6 months for IEBC to verify authenticity of the 5M signatures 3 months for counties to debate the refurendum Q 3 months for the Mps to debate the referendum Q 3 months for the senate to debate the same 6 months for IEBC to start referendum logistics n tendering We need 24 months before we vote only if nobody goes to court to stop or challenge the process.

Normally IEBC cleans up voter registers after 5 yrs again this may render the collected signatures null n void coz the possibilty of someone challenging it in court is high thereby calling for a fresh round of signature collection or new IEBC verification. Referendum 2019 or never!
