Kisii minority MCAs on Tuesday walked out of the assembly in protest over what they termed as 'faulty'
microphones.
The ward reps led by Samuel Apoko (Kiogoro) and his Tabaka counterpart Apepo Ombasa said that they were disadvantaged when it came debating.
The walkout came after deputy Speaker Davins Onuso
urged the minority members to cross over and use the microphones on the majority side.
They were debating on the second report of the Health committee on the site visit to the
subcounties
hospitals.
“Speaker we are urging you to adjourn the House until the problem
is rectified
by those concerned,” Apoko said.
He said the minority MCAs will
not
be going to cross over to use microphones used by the majority and yet they had theirs.
"We are going to walk out of the House until the mess is cleared,”
Apepo
said.
Efforts by the leader of majority Timothy Ogugu to convince the opposition to continue with the debate fell on deaf ears as they walked out.
