Senate Speaker Ken Lusaka and Isaac Mwaura (R). [Elvis Ogina, Standard]
Senate Speaker Kenneth Lusaka sought to set the record straight on his decision to de-gazette Isaac Mwaura as Nominated Senator.
Dr Lusaka who last week came under fire from a section of senators who faulted his move despite a court order, refraining him from implementing the decision of the Jubilee Party to revoke Mwaura's nomination, yesterday maintained that he acted within the law in declaring a vacancy upon the expulsion of the Nominated Senator.
He told members that there was no court order barring him from declaring the vacancy.
