Friday, February 2, 2024 - Following the High Court's decision to dismiss the National Dialogue Committee's final report that was endorsed by former Prime Minister Raila Odinga and President William Ruto, Githunguri Member of Parliament, Gathoni Wamuchomba, has finally reacted to the ruling.
In an interview with one of the
local publications on Friday, Wamuchomba welcomed the move, saying both camps
had forgotten about the ordinary Kenyans.
According to her statement, the
courts were left to defend Kenyans as it is evident that Ruto's Kenya Kwanza
government abandoned Kenyans.
Further, she claimed that the Mt
Kenya region didn't vote for the entrenchment of the Office of Opposition
Leader and that of Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi into the law.
“The National Dialogue Committee
called for the creation of the office of Opposition Leader and entrenchment of
Prime cabinet secretary office into the constitution which is contrary to what
Mt Kenya region voted for in the 2022 election,” Wamuchobna said.
The lawmaker's statement came a
day after Justice Mugure Thande ordered the IEBC selection panel to recruit
IEBC commissioners and not to wait for the recommendation of the NADCO report.
In her ruling, Justice Thande
said the political truce does not override what the Constitution stipulates.
