Like his Biblical namesake, Moses Wetangula is charged with the responsibility of not only handing down the laws to Kenya's lawmakers in Parliament, but also interpreting the laws. But he has increasingly found himself in the thick of burning bushes for interpreting laws in ways his critics and courts say is misleading

After ignoring the High Court decision that declared Azimio La Umoja coalition as the Majority party in the National Assembly, Wetangula is in the eye of the storm again, this time for communicating that the High Court judgement on roads maintenance levy fund was a win to MPs.
