JUST IN: Wetang’ula Rejects Calls to Resign, Declares Speaker Has Final Say on Majority Coalition in Parliament
National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula has reaffirmed that determining the majority coalition in Parliament is solely the Speaker’s responsibility, not the courts’. Addressing lawmakers on Tuesday, February 11, Wetang’ula clarified that although a court ruling overturned his earlier decision on the matter, it did not assign majority status to any coalition. “The judgment quashed the direction of the Speaker on the majority-minority issue; the judgment never declared who is the majority. It is not the court to declare the majority, it is the Speaker of this house and you better know that,” he asserted. Amollo Warns Against Disregarding Court Ruling
