The recent move by Muslim Sheikhs to enforce Sharia Law, outlaw DSTV, video dens & related activities in Mandera could not have come at a more unfortunate time. The support they have received from SUPREM (Supreme Council of Kenya Muslims) further complicates the debate on the "continued" inclusion of Kadhi Courts in our Constitution. Now that the SUPKEM has proved to support such apparent 'treason' in my secular nation, President Kibaki and Prime Minister Odinga must also commit to ensuring that religion and religious courts are omitted from the new constitution. That is the pact they must sign with the NO campaign if a YES vote is to sail through without question. No religion, especially fundamentalist Islam, should enjoy the privileges of my hard-earned taxes to propagate religious activities that may disintegrate into such treasonable actions as by the Sheikhs. My vote would easily change to a resounding "NO" unless I am assured by the Constitution that no Sheikh or Buddist monk, Hindu priest or Christian cleric will get away with the absurd audacity of attempting to determine where I watch my Supersport matches, what I drink as I do so; where and what I can smoke or drink in an independent secular KENYA. No religion should 'get it twisted' on its place in secular Kenya and no loopholes should allow Sheikhs or SUPKEM to get away with such treasonable actions.
