Moses Wetangula, Speaker of the National Assembly, broke his quiet following his statements yesterday by addressing Rt Hon. Raila Odinga, leader of the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition party.
In a statement issued today, Moses Wetangula addressed Raila Odinga's remarks from yesterday, stating that he will be compromised if the speaker of the National Assembly delivers legislation passed by parliament to the president for implementation.
In response, Moses Wetangula stated that he had to send laws approved by the National Assembly to the president for ratification in accordance with Article 115 of the Kenyan Constitution.
"Yesterday, even I had difficulty understanding some of the things that my friend Raila Odinga said. He says that sending laws enacted by Parliament to the President to sign in his capacity as Speaker of the National Assembly will undermine me. You can discover on the internet that Speaker Kenneth Marende would deliver him bills signed by former President Mwai Kibaki during his tenure as prime minister, which would make him very happy. Why, at the time, had he not been.
