During the Thursday sitting, Speaker Justin Muturi announced that any member of the assembly was at liberty to move a motion for the MP's suspension.

" I will not allow you to name any member without a substantive motion. If you do so, you will be in breach of Standing Orders,” Speaker Muturi ruled 


Majority Whip Emmanuel Wangwe moved the motion which was seconded by his deputy Maoka Maore.

During the heated session, MP Nyoro and his Gatundu South counterpart Moses Kuria were called to defend themselves over the claims that MPs were paid sh 100,000 to pass the Building Bridges Intitative ( BBI).


Also accusesd alongside the two, was Nyali MP Mohammed Ali however he failed to attend the sitting because he was celebrating Idd-Ul- Fitr.

He wrote to the speaker informing him of his unavailability but promised to appear on any date once served with the summons.
