Wetangula in criticism of the High Court ruling that stripped Kenya Kwanza of majority status, found that the judgement seemed to have caused unprecedented confusion.
National Assembly Speaker, Moses Wetangula has ruled that the Kenya Kwanza coalition remains the majority party of the House.
Ruling on the matter on Wednesday, February 12, Wetangula in criticism of the High Court ruling that stripped Kenya Kwanza of majority status, found that the judgement seemed to have caused unprecedented confusion.
“I have read the judgement and it has been explain to me at length by our able legal team. The matter is related to a mixed part of prayers. I have instructed that an appeal be launched against the judgment,” he ruled in part.
According to Wetangula, Azimio la Umoja One Kenya party consists of 154 members while the Kenya Kwanza consists of 165 members. He noted that the numbers on Azimio are changed by a slight change of membership, a controversy he declined to engage in.
“The Kenya Kwanza coalition is the majority party and the Azimio coalition is the minority. Consequently, the leadership of the house remains unchanged,” he ruled.
