Chaos has erupted in Kenya’s parliament as the opposition protests against the passing of the Anti-Terror Law.[/caption]
The Opposition MPs began by heckling the chairman of the Security Committee Asman Kamama (Tiaty) as he attempted to move the motion on amendments to the Security Laws (Amendment) Bill 2014.
MPs led by John Mbadi then grabbed their Order Papers and hurled them to the floor of the House as some belted the popular ‘Bado Mapambano’ (The struggle continues) song, forcing Speaker Justin Muturi to initially adjourn sittings for 30 minutes.
An attempt to re-convene proved futile forcing suspension of the session until 2:30pm.
Senate Minority Leader Moses Wetangula (Bungoma), Boni Khalwale (Kakamega), Johnson Muthama (Machakos) and James Orengo (Siaya) who had made their way into the Speakers Gallery were forcefully ejected on orders of Muturi.
“I direct that the members in the Speakers gallery who are waving must be ejected forthwith. Those are strangers… they must get out! Those strangers must leave the Speakers gallery,” shouted the Speaker amid cheers from the Jubilee wing.
