NAIROBI: The newest member of the National Assembly Elijah Memusi (Kajiado Central) made his maiden speech in the House with a scathing attack on President Uhuru Kenyatta’s preferred political vehicle for 2017. He said the Jubilee Alliance Party was an “ideologically bankrupt party”.

Memusi spent ten minutes extolling the opposition leaders, thanking his voters, and lambasting the ruling Jubilee coalition and its embryonic Jubilee Alliance Party which lost the parliamentary seat contest in his constituency.
