National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula has become the latest senior principal of the Kenya Kwanza alliance to support the ouster motion against Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.

The Ford Kenya party leader made his statement as a guest at Wamunyu Catholic Church in Machakos County.

“We must know that our diversity is the source of our strength, and that is how we shall live,” Wetangula said.

The motion is expected to be tabled on Tuesday and must have the backing of at least 117 lawmakers to be introduced in Parliament.

Following its introduction, the motion must be supported by a total of 233 Members of Parliament for it to be taken to the Senate for debate.

On Friday, House Leaders in the National Assembly, where the motion must be tabled first, said the process was well underway, with the signature collection drive having gathered close to 300 signatures.
