MPs have threatened to withhold funding to the Kenyan Embassy in Seoul, South Korea, after President Uhuru Kenyatta appointed Mwende Mwinzi (pictured) as the ambassador without parliamentary approval. “The nominee (Mwinzi) failed to honour the directive of this House. He continued: “I wish to request Kimunya to confirm if indeed it is true she reported to Seoul on February 17. Mwinzi, who is married to a Nigerian citizen, was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, US, to a Kenyan father and an American mother. He directed Kenta to file a notice of motion by 7pm yesterday to discuss the matter next week on Tuesday.
