The vetting of Nyamira Deputy Governor Dr James Gesami which was set for Friday has been halted after a court issued conservatory orders barring the process.
The High Court in Nyamira issued the orders to stop the County Assembly from vetting Dr Gesami until a case filed by a resident Patrick Atambo is heard and determined.
" It is hereby ordered that interim conservatory order be and is hereby issued staying the process of nomination and or processing a nominee to the office of a Deputy Governor, County Government of Nyamira pending the hearing and determination of the application,” read the order.
The case has been slated for June 8, 2021.
Nyamira Governor Amos Nyaribo on Tuesday, last week re-submitted the name of the former West Mugirango MP for vetting for the position of Deputy Governor.
In January, 21 out of 36 MCAs previously rejected the nomination of Dr Gesami citing that he failed to submit crucial documents like HELB, CRB and EACC certificates.
