Speaker of the National Assembly, Justin Muturi, has said the noise by the Opposition will not affect President Uhuru Kenyatta’s list of Cabinet.
Speaking yesterday, Muturi noted that failure by National Super Alliance (NASA) to name its members to the House Committee tasked with vetting Cabinet Secretaries will not derail the exercise.
He said Jubilee will go ahead to vet the nominees despite NASA not recognizing Uhuru Kenyatta’s Presidency.
He confirmed that the Standing Orders only require that the committee raises a quorum of 9 members irrespective of their political leaning s to transact business.
He vowed to approve the names as they come saying NASA will not hold them hostage.
“There is no effect on any political party or coalition failing to have its members in the committee.”
“What the rules is only quorum, as long it is achieved, then the committee can continue with its business,” said Muturi.
