Kiharu member of parliament Ndindi Nyoro has set the stage for what promises to be a very exciting day today full of drama and intrigues, and expected to climax with him exposing the name of a senior member of parliament he claims was bribing colleagues during the BBI vote in the National Assembly.
Speaker Justin Muturi had on Tuesday issued a directive ordering three MPs to report to the National Assembly chambers today to answer to allegations of disorderly conduct after MPs asked him to call out the lawmakers for disorderly conduct.
Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria, his Kiharu counterpart Ndindi Nyoro, and Nyali’s Mohamed Ali face charges of issuing disparaging remarks against their colleagues who voted for the Constitution of Kenya Amendment Bill, 2020.
They took issue with Kuria for claiming that some lawmakers were handed Sh100,000 to vote in favour of the BBI bill and Nyoro for calling them sell-outs, and supporting the Gatundu South legislator’s sentiments.
However, Ndindi Nyoro, in a defiant response yesterday while appearing on Citizen TV’s Jeff Koinange Live, promised to not only appear before the speaker and honour his summon, but to also table proof showing that his claims were, after all, valid.
During Tuesday’s chaotic parliamentary proceedings, Kitui Central MP Makali Mulu raised the matter, saying the act by the three MPs amounted to disorderly conduct on the part of the Gatundu South lawmaker, and by extension, his colleagues.
He said social media and the electronic media has been awash with the claims, bringing into disrepute their standing as members of the society.
“Members of this House are all honourable members. They have been elected by Kenyans and have a chance to say Yes or NO. It was very wrong that the member was saying the 235 members who voted Yes could only do that after being given Sh100,000.”
Mulu added: “This is very wrong coming from an honorable member. There is a casual way of doing things in this House which is not good. Some members called others sell-outs, cowards, and traitors. How can a member in this House call another member a coward, sell-outs? We need your (speaker’s) intervention so that we remain honourable members,” the MP said.
