Conspiracy by MPs to avoid public scrutiny unacceptable

As Opposition legislators walked out of the National Assembly to protest a presidential veto of tax legislation recently, it was indeed a portrayal of bad image and betrayal to the people of Kenya who they should be representing.

CORD, however, has since moved to court to challenge amended laws and oppose other proposed bills deemed unconstitutional. The Opposition says the president’s unilateral proposal to strike out, amend or delete provisions of the bills is unconstitutional, in breach of the doctrine of separation of powers and therefore null and void.
