I'll do my best to serve, Kimunya says as he takes over Majority Leader role


MP Amos Kimunya has said he will do his best not only to serve the Jubilee Party but the country as a whole.

Kimunya while speaking at the KICC after he was handed over the National Assembly Majority leadership position, said it was a humbling situation that the role had been handed to him.

Two weeks ago, Kimunya had been named as the Coalition Secretary a role that has now been handed over to Eldas MP Adan Keynan.

 

In the new changes, Kangema MP Muturi Kigano will now chair the Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights Committee while Kieni's Kanini Kega will Chair Budget Committee replacing Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichungwa.


"This is a humbling situation for me. It shows the confidence the party leadership has on me. I will do my best to serve not only the party but the country at large," Kimunya said.

The legislator said it is worth noting that his predecessor Aden Duale had rendered dedicated service for eight years in that posit

 "I know what it means to be in that position, he has done really well and provided good leadership, he is still a big asset to us and the country," he said.

While dismissing claims that there were rebels in the Jubilee Parliamentary Group meeting chaired by President Uhuru Kenyatta, Kimunya said such persons exist only in the eyes of those who want to profile the legislators as pro or anti-jubilee.

"This change has come because the members felt they needed it, it is not a witch hunt or a matter of bad blood," he said.

According to Kimunya, the meeting did not last long because the main agenda was the leadership changes.

 
 

Having completed the main agenda, we did not have any social engagement but we shall create time to engage more," he said.

Uhuru is said to have entered the meeting room at KICC waved at people and before sitting, a prayer was made.

Tuju took over the programme and read the agenda before inviting the President who told the MPs about the changes being made.

He then repeated that he was creating harmony in the party and wanted to work with those supporting him. He then left the room.

The meeting lasted for only 22 minutes.

A statement from State House said the PG meeting was attended by Deputy President William Ruto, Tuju and a total of 174 Jubilee Coalition Members of the National Assembly.

"The Party Leader said the Coalition, through the new Leader of Government Business and Majority Chief Whip, will communicate changes in the composition of House Committees to the Speaker of the National Assembly by Thursday, 25th June 2020," State House Spokesperson Kanze Dena said.

"The Head of State reminded the legislators to focus on the Coalition's development agenda and advised them against engaging in divisive politics."

" HE CUTS HIS HAIR" HARRY STYLES

  HE CUTS HIS HAIR Fans are shocked after learning HARRY STYLES has probably cut his long hair, noting how similar its is to how it was styled in Dunkirk.  I want to put my hands in  Harry Styles 's hair. There, I said it. Long-term One Direction fans would physically fight me for the honor, but I'm sure any human being with a functioning sense of touch would gear up for a fatal battle upon seeing that silky  head of curls . Even if you aren't a fan of the  25-year-old singer 's music, you've likely heard epic tales about his hair. Whether he's growing it long, chopping it all off, or merely letting it exist, it sends people of all backgrounds into a frenzy — take a  scroll through TikTok , where you can't go three swipes without seeing his face or hearing his voice, and you'll see what I mean. And just like Styles himself, his hair has gone through several changes since he entered the spotlight on the  The X Factor UK  in 2010. A sucker for ...

Black Lives Matter: Protesters march on London as scuffles break out in Glasgow

Thousands of people across the country have gathered for Black Lives Matters (BLM) protests, as demonstrations continue for the fourth weekend in the row. Scores of protesters assembled at Speakers' Corner in London's Hyde Park, while a separate group marched from Vauxhall en route to Parliament Square. In Guernsey, as the island lifts social distancing measures, hundreds attended protests in honour of George Floyd, whose death sparked international outrage. Glasgow’s Say No to Racism event, which was twinned with World Refugee Day, was largely peaceful, despite a large police presence on George Square and minor scuffles. Elsewhere, in Scotland a protest was held at the statue of Henry Dundas, who delayed the abolition of the slave trade, at St Andrew Square, Edinburgh. Peaceful protests have similarly been held in Manchester and Birmingham this weekend.
