On Friday the High Court of Kenya had quashed a decision by Speaker of National Assembly Moses Wetang’ula declaring the Kenya Kwanza coalition the majority party in the House.
The three-judge bench comprising Justices John Chigiti, Jairus Ngaah and Lawrence Mugambi ruled that the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Alliance is the bonafide majority alliance in the National Assembly.
In a landmark decision, the court said Wetangula acted unreasonably when he assigned to the Kenya Kwanza alliance the 14 members of the Azimio coalition who had resigned from the outfit.
The case was filed in court by Ken Njagi, advocate Lempaa Soyinka and 10 others represented by Advocate Kibe Mungai.
Wetangula had claimed that several Azimio members had formally written to his office to denounce their association with the Raila Odinga-led political outfit.
These members are 14 MPs drawn from 4 parties, namely the United Democratic Movement (UDM), Movement for Democracy and Growth (MDG), Maendeleo Chap Chap (MCC), and Pamoja African Alliance (PAA).
But the bench said when he signed an affidavit in court to oppose the case, he didn’t provide any evidence of any post-election agreements involving the said parties and the KK coalition.
However Orengo while speaking during the burial Richard Ochieng Oloo, the father of high court advocate Willis Ochieng in East Alego asked azimio not to let go the chance that would transform the coalition in a big way.
Instead of sitting on the table for those on power, the court has given you what is rightfully yours ,”said Orengo adding that ODM party should not lose the golden opportunity that has come on their way. Don’t leave it.
Right now the court, made a very important ruling saying that Azimio is the majority party and not Kenya Kwanza.
“What are we going to do about it?, are we going to again sit on the table and make a deal.
The verdict by Court confirmed that the results for the last polls were incorrect.
Similar sentiments was echoed by Safina party Leader Jim Wanjigi who told AZimio leaders that the Court has given them lee way to initiate impeachment of the president for they have the numbers.
“As Azimio coalition, you have a golden opportunity to initiate impeachment of the president whose actions does not mean well for Kenyans. This message also goes to Machakos Governor Wavinya Ndeti, the Mps had told us that they could impeach the Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua so President Ruto cannot have to finish full term.
If they don’t impeach the president by March, then they would have slumbered and that would have a ripple effect in your re-election in 2027,”
“this is the time for true change and those who are in parliament and I mean by March should find president Ruto out of power,” said the Wiper Party Leader.
Machakos Governor Wavinya Ndeti asked Nyanza electorates to support Musyoka’s presidential bid in 2027 because(the Kamba Community) have supported and stood by Former Premier Raila Odinga for over 15 years.
“For 15 years, the Kamba Community has sacrificed a lot in favour of Odinga and so
For the years we have been backing Raila, he has been receiving more votes from Kamba community.
This time round the Luo Community should give Kalonzo maximum support. I started campaigning for Raila when I was a youth and now am fully grown woman and Orengo we have been with you through the struggles.
“We have been faithful to Raila for the past 15 years and so its your (Luos) turn to reciprocate.
Safina Party leader Jimi Wanjigi told Wavinya to hold her horse on succession politics and instead embrace coalitions meant to fix problems bedevilling the Country.
“we do not have any problem withy Kenyans coming together but first lets embrace coalitions not for politics but on initiatives aimed at solving problems Kenyans suffer from.
Lets diagnose the issues that disturbs this nation not a tribal outfits,”
