National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula was on Thursday forced to intervene and quell the building tension in the House during the debate on the impeachment of Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mithika Linturi. This was after a section of members rose from their seats as others stepped onto the floor while chanting Linturi must go. 2027 is coming if you vote against this bill, let us vote in support of Kenyans," he said. When the situation returned to normalcy, Wetangula read the riot act to the shouting members. "Your own children out are watching you live, your husbands are watching you live, if you continue behaving like that it is most unfortunate."
