Kajiado County has become the seventh county to pass the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) referendum Bill.

The county assembly made the decision on Wednesday following deliberations throughout the day.

It also becomes the first county outside the Nyanza and Western Kenya regions to pass the bill.
