Senate Majority Leader Aaron Cheruiyot Calls For Sacking Of Moses Kuria

Senate Majority Leader Aaron Cheruiyot has called for the dismissal of Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria, accusing him of embarrassing the government and undermining the Senate.

Senator Cheruiyot made the statement on Wednesday, November 11, in response to CS Kuria’s public criticism of the Senate’s handling of the ongoing impeachment proceedings against Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza.

The Majority Leader expressed disappointment in CS Kuria’s conduct, saying that his remarks were “becoming increasingly unbecoming of a Cabinet Secretary.”

He particularly took issue with a tweet by CS Kuria in which he called senators “cognitively impaired”.

Senator Cheruiyot said that CS Kuria’s behavior was not only disrespectful to the Senate but also reflected poorly on President William Ruto.

He called on the President to dismiss CS Kuria, saying that his continued presence in the government was an embarrassment to the administration.

Senator Cheruiyot’s comments come amid growing calls for CS Kuria’s resignation. Several other senators have also expressed concerns about his conduct, and there is a growing consensus within the Kenya Kwanza coalition that he should be removed from office.
