I am happy we are now tagging along well after our demands were met.\u201dMbadi said their main concern had been the composition of the JLAC and Delegated Legislation committees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the Jubilee side has made some changes to the two committees. We are now okay. They have also made some changes to the Finance Committee.\u201dA Jubilee MP who requested anonymity confirmed that the dispute had centred on the membership list.\u201cThe party leadership weighed in on the issue to have some, if not all of them, removed.<\/p>\n<p>I know some have been lobbying and pledging loyalty to be retained, but the leadership is adamant that their lack of discipline in the past will cost them.\u00a0It was agreed they go so we can have people who can push an agenda that is needed.\u201dMbadi denied reports that the minority coalition had been demanding more chairperson slots.\u201cOur issue was on the composition of some of the committees.<\/p>\n<p>We had already agreed with the Jubilee side that our side will chair Finance, Education and Broadcasting.\u201dMembers of the coalition will also\u00a0serve as vice chairpersons of the JLAC, National Cohesion and Integration Committee, and Constitution Implementation Oversight Committee (CIOC).<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Mr Kimunya met with Junet to resolve the standoff.\u201cWe are both satisfied that the harmonised list captures the spirit of the House business into the future, in line with the vision of the party leaders,\u201d said Kimunya following the meeting.<\/p>\n<p>ODM is said to have settled on Homa Bay Woman Rep Gladys Wanga to chair the Finance and Planning Committee, while her Busia counterpart Florence Mutua will chair the Education Committee.The party has further settled on Rarieda MP Otiende Amolo as the new vice-chairperson of JLAC, while Homa Bay Town MP Peter Kaluma serves as CIOC vice-chairperson.<\/p>\n<p>The JLAC leadership was in the hands of Ruto allies Baringo North MP William Cheptumo (chairperson) and Alice Wahome (Kandara) as deputy. Both were ejected over their association with the deputy president.<\/p>\n<p>Nominated MP Geoffrey Osotsi \u2013 who is also a member of the Committee on Selection \u2013 said the purpose of reconstituting the committees was to kick out all Ruto allies.He said that Kieleweke members were also unhappy that the DP\u2019s men and women still retained their membership in some crucial House committees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was a feeling by the minority side that a significant number of Tangatanga members was in the CIOC, Finance, JLAC, Education and Broadcasting committees.\u201cKieleweke members have also complained that their Tangatanga colleagues landed slots in powerful committees.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for the re-organisation of these committees was to manage Tangatanga in the House. It beats the purpose when they still end up getting key positions,\u201d said Osotsi.The first meeting of the committee convened by Kimunya failed to reach a consensus after members disagreed. Kimunya later withdrew the proposed list from the floor of the House.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contentious points<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ford Kenya Secretary General Eseli Simiyu, who is also a committee member, said some of the contentious points during the last meeting had been sorted out.\u201cWhen the list was withdrawn, it was agreed that we convene again to iron out the issues. The leaders met and resolved the issues,\u201d said Mr Eseli.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, former National Assembly Majority Chief Whip Benjamin Washiali warned the ODM leadership to stop demanding parliamentary committee positions meant for the Jubilee party.Washiali accused the opposition party of \u201ctrying to bulldoze itself in the ruling party\u2019s affairs under the pretense of the unity pact between Uhuru and Raila.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ODM and other parties who recently joined Jubilee have no authority to demand certain seats in parliamentary committees meant for the ruling and majority wing by continuously arm-twisting the President by issuing threats of walking out of the handshake,\u201d said Washiali.Washiali blasted ODM for deserting its duties as the opposition and instead, turning into\u00a0\u2018praise singers\u2019 of the regime.\u201c<\/p>\n<p>We have seen them demand seats and positions in the committees and, in turn, forget their key mandate of keeping the government in check, which Kenyans bestowed on them in the 2017 General Election,\u201d he said.Additional reporting by Brian Kisanji and Kepher Otieno<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AfricaPress-Kenya: President Uhuru Kenyatta\u2019s party has finally given in to demands by ODM leader Raila Odinga\u2019s camp on the composition of members of key House committees, thus ending a weeks-long standoff.
