The name of His Excellency Kalonzo Musyoka has been forwarded to the National Assembly to compete for the position of Speaker. Kalonzo will compete against his UDA counterpart.
According to the most recent news from KICC, Azimio la Umoja has appointed one of their co-principals to the position. Martha Karua hinted that they will produce the majority leader and the speaker of the National Assembly because they control the majority in parliament.
Kalonzo has not issued a statement on the matter. According to KTN news, sources indicate that Kalonzo has abandoned his ambition to become chief minister. Instead, he has chosen to be the speaker of the National Assembly.
This is a novel twist that speculates on what people expect. Meanwhile, the Azimio la Umoja coalition party has decided to take the matter to court. They will appeal the presidential election result to the Supreme Court.
As such, we wish them the best of luck in maintaining the country’s peace. Thanks.
