The Cord coalition has recalled its members from already established parliamentary committees until a stalemate with the Jubilee alliance over membership in the Public Accounts and Public Investments Committee is resolved.


“CORD wishes to inform the public that the democracy they have for years fought for is under threat and that it will not be business as usual in Parliament until that time that Jubilee Coalition leadership will have realised that Democracy applies to both the majority and the minority,” Cord said.


Jubilee should accept the grievances and move on.

Reality check. It's quite ironical that the laws that my CORD(read ODM)engineered during the 10th Parliament are the same ones eating them up!! They were over confident of being the ruling party come elections. Alas!...Democracy is indeed a two edged sword.

CORD or so Jakoyo Midiwo is too stubborn to reason. Kwani where is Nyenze the Minority Leader. Let them accept the tyranny of numbers in both houses and move on. in nay case if there is nay malpractices that they are 'claiming' they want to watch over, it is our taxes not theirs.

@King G....the standing orders were amended when there was no opposition due to the nature of government of national unity...now that the Nusu mkate has ended,we now have to revert back to the status ante.....commonwealth....accepted norms...

This is a phalacy, I think a creation of the media. The 10th parliament had ODM as majority yes, but claiming that now the ODM is entirely CORD is wrong, for example, almost half of Jubilee was ODM, and a number of CORD mps were part of PNU (kalonzo's ODM-K).

Now tell me when the media says CORD passed laws last year knowing they'd win, which CORD (read ODM) was this...William Rutos group?, they were already in bad terms with Raila, Or did ODMK support this motion despite being in PNU?. Where is the hansard?

Common sense dictates that Opposition controls oversight committees, we are in commonwealth, and that is the way it is.

Its only unfortunate that people still think we are in electioneering period.

Isn't the parliament supposed to be the watchdog now that the cabinet is from without?
I care!
