Nairobi, Kenya: Details have emerged of an explosive exchange between the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Government’s chief legal adviser over a push by Members of Parliament to have Cabinet Secretaries (CSs) appear, in person, to field questions related to their dockets in the House.
The Standard established the behind-the scenes power struggle a day after National Assembly Speaker Justin Muturi met President Uhuru Kenyatta’s Cabinet at Nairobi’s Parliament Buildings for talks at which CSs expressed their discomfort with the arrangement that had been done away with following confinement of Cabinet seats to non-political technocrats.
