The legislator told the Nation that the sudden change was due to her political affiliation with the DP.
“I was a victim for supporting William Ruto. Anybody who supports the DP is ejected from leadership committees. I’m therefore a victim,” she told the daily, adding that she might have lost the seat for calling out lazy contractors.
Kirinyaga Central MP John Munene has been moved from Justice and Legal Affairs to Administration and National Security.
