Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria has hit back at the National Assembly Majority whip Emmanuel Wangwe, hours after being kicked out of the lucrative house committee.
The controversial lawmaker has accused the Navakholo MP of lacking knowledge about his role in the parliament. Kuria in a Facebook post on Wednesday night advised Wangwe to seek advice from his predecessor, the Mumias East MP Benjamin Washiali.
While referring to Wangwe as a buffoon, Kuria told him that Member Services Committee is not a Departmental Committee. He went further to argue that the Majority whip job is above MP Wangwe’s pay grade and qualifications.
According to Moses Kuria, the highest certificate Wangwe holds is a Driving Licence.
Moses Kuria had earlier on accused Wangwe of ignorance, saying that he had been notified of intention to be discharged from the Justice and Legal Affairs Committee (JLAC) of which he was not a member and then Wangwe proceeded to discharge him from the Transport Committee.
Kuria and Laikipia Woman Representative Catherine Waruguru are among four Jubilee Party legislators who have been expelled from National Assembly committees.
Others are Aldai MP Cornelly Serem and Bomet Woam Rep Joyce Korir.
Waruguru last week met with ODM leader Raila Odinga in what was said to be a move to save her from the ouster.
Waruguru met the African Union Special Envoy for Infrastructure last Tuesday before Laikipia North MP Sarah Korere visited the ODM leader the following day.
The outspoken MP, who was a staunch supporter of deputy president William Ruto, said she had resorted to work with the government. Ms Waruguru said she met the Orange Democratic Movement leader to discuss pertinent issues of national importance.
In his communication to speaker Justin Muturi, Wangwe noted that the four have been relieved of their duties.
Last week, Kuria accepted his removal as Vice Chairperson of the Transport, Infrastructure, Public Works and Housing Committee.
In his statement, the vocal lawmaker thanked the party for allowing him to serve in the aforementioned capacity. He did however, note that he had no regrets in discharging his duties.
