In the latest political drama to unfold in Parliament, tensions ran high as lawmakers from the Azimio coalition stood their ground, adamant that they rightfully held the majority positions in the House. The Speaker of the National Assembly, Moses Wetangula, found himself in the hot seat, tasked with providing direction following the court’s ruling that favored the Azimio side.However, in a surprising turn of events, Speaker Wetangula boldly declared that it was actually the Kenya Kwanza coalition that boasted the most members of Parliament.
This decision did not sit well with opposition MPs, particularly South Suba MP Millie Odhiambo, who wasted no time in dismissing the Speaker’s remarks before storming out of the Parliament chambers in protest.Adding fuel to the fire, the Minority Leader in the National Assembly, Junet Mohamed, took matters into his own hands by announcing that Azimio MPs would be stripped of their positions on key parliamentary committees.
In a show of solidarity, he led the disgruntled lawmakers out of the House, leaving the sessions to continue in their absence.With the broad-based government now at a crossroads, all eyes are on the Kenya Kwanza coalition to see if they will challenge Speaker Wetangula’s ruling in court. The political landscape remains tense as the power struggle between the two coalitions plays out in the hallowed halls of Parliament. Stay tuned for more updates on this gripping saga.
