The Acting Speaker has suspended Nairobi County Senator Edwin Sifuna, a fervent member of the Azimio-One Kenya Coalition, from today’s senate session. The acting speaker, Hon. Mohamed Haji, who is also the senator for Garissa County, reportedly admonished the Nairobi senator against expressing opinions that would undermine the country in a viral video clip that this writer has seen.
At the time, Edwin Sifuna declared that the Azimio and the Opposition as a whole wouldn’t watch while the present administration allegedly promoted tribalism, the most recent instance being the appointment of a Nandi person to lead the Kenya Port Authority within the next five years.
The Speaker can be heard explaining that even though it wasn’t his intention to expel anyone from the house in response to the Sifuna’s harsh statements, before the Sifuna yells at him and tells him that he is only acting in his capacity as Speaker.
