Ruto suffers another setback in Parliament as House rejects Duale amendment
Garissa Township MP Aden Duale and some MPs allied to Deputy President William Ruto address journalists after storming out of a meeting on the controversial Political Parties (Amendment) Bill, 2021, at Parliament Buildings on December 28.
Deputy President William Ruto has suffered a setback after a proposal by his close ally Aden Duale seeking to expunge a clause in the contentious Political Parties Amendment Bill, 2021 was defeated on the floor of the House.
In the morning sitting, Mr Duale was seeking to amend Clause 8 of the Bill, which provides that a coalition political party must deposit its coalition agreement with the Registrar of Political parties six months to the General Election.
