Tuesday, March 18, 2025 - Kiharu MP, Ndindi Nyoro, has broken his silence following his dismissal as the Chairperson of the Budget and Appropriations Committee in the National Assembly.
Speaking at the Kenyatta International
Convention Centre (KICC) on Tuesday, March 18th, Nyoro stated that
he was never informed why he was removed from the influential parliamentary
role.
According to the lawmaker, he only
learned about his ouster through the media.
“I do not know why I was replaced, and
I am saying this in good faith.”
“No one in the leadership of our
coalition has ever called me regarding the position,” Nyoro revealed.
He added that he viewed his role as a
service to Kenyans and, therefore, felt it necessary to clarify the
circumstances surrounding his removal.
"I
was holding this position knowing that I was serving Kenyans, so I am
answerable, I read in newspapers about my removal the same way you did and that
is the truth," he added.
During the press conference, Citizen TV
journalist, Stephen Letoo, injected some humor into the discussion by asking
Nyoro if he could allocate Ksh 72 billion for chapatis, referencing President
Ruto’s recent promise to acquire a machine capable of producing a million
chapatis daily.
Estimates suggest such an initiative would cost at least Ksh
10 million daily, excluding labor and other expenses.
The unexpected question left Nyoro momentarily speechless
before he burst into laughter.
Nyoro was replaced by ODM’s Alego Usonga MP, Sam Atandi, a
move seen as part of the shifting political dynamics following the emerging
Ruto-Raila alliance.
