Tensions have surged within the Machakos County Assembly after the sudden removal of two prominent Members of County Assembly (MCAs) from their leadership positions, triggering heated debates and raising questions about the political dynamics in the region.
Felix Ngui, the MCA for Katangi Ward and a member of the Wiper Party, was removed from his position on the County Assembly Service Board (CASB) following a directive from the Wiper Party Secretariat. The move has raised eyebrows, as Ngui had previously been seen as a key figure within the party’s leadership. His position on the CASB will now be filled by Deputy Majority Whip, Winnifred Mutua, whose appointment has already sparked reactions from various quarters.
Meanwhile, Matuu Ward MCA Mbili Ndawa, who represents the MCC party, also found himself at the center of the political storm as he was stripped of his appointed leadership role within the assembly. This second leadership change has only added to the unrest, with many within the assembly expressing frustration over the sudden nature of the reshuffles.
Political analysts are closely monitoring the situation, as the changes could have wider implications on the balance of power in the county. The reshuffles have ignited debates about the influence of party headquarters in local politics and the dynamics between political parties in the region.
As the political drama unfolds, all eyes are now on Machakos County Assembly, where the fallout from these leadership changes is expected to continue shaping local governance in the coming days.
