Aaron Cheruiyot Claims Majority of MPs Take Home Less than 10K Monthly; Man Rescued by Gunmen from Iten Hospital Is a Bandit Commander & Murdered KU Student’s Boyfriend Reveals She Owed her 1M & Lived a Flashy Lifestyle

Good morning,

Interior Cabinet secretary Kithure Kindiki will today be the first minister to appear on the floor of the House to directly respond to MPs’ questions.

This follows after the speaker of the National Assembly Moses Wetangula is on record saying that neither Chief Administrative Secretaries (CAS) nor other government officials will be allowed to represent Cabinet secretaries in plenary when they start appearing today.

Today’s tentative Order Paper indicates that Kindiki is expected to respond to three questions from MPs Martha Wangari (Gilgil), Abdul Haro (Mandera South) and Joseph Gitari (Kirinyaga Central).

Wangari’s question relates to the shortage of birth registration materials (also known as B1 forms) in health facilities across the country while Haro’s query relates to the establishment of civil registration centres in every sub-county.

Gitari has two questions relating to outstanding warrants of arrest from the Kagumo police post against a certain individual as well as the emergence of criminal gangs or terror groups in the country.

Meanwhile, here are news stories making headlines on Opera News today;

Mr Jesse Wafula Walukha, in documents filed at the High Court in Nairobi, also says Kangogo was her business partner and she was avoiding queries from her colleagues at work over her lifestyle and ownership of a motor vehicle.

He wants to be released from police custody saying there is no tangible evidence tying him to Kangogo or linking him to the murder and that he has “nothing to do with her death”.

Normally, MPs receive their salaries by the end month between the 26th and 30th. But reacting to Wandayi’s remarks, Kericho senator Aaron Cheruiyot claimed that a big percentage of parliamentarians take home less than KSh 10,000 monthly.
