Nairobi — The parliamentary committee on appointments has recommended the rejection of Tourism Cabinet Secretary nominee Peninah Malonza.

Prior to her nomination, Malonza was the Deputy Governor in Makueni County.

The rejection is contained in a report tabled in the House on Tuesday afternoon by Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichungwah.

The announcement led to jeering and booing by a section of members from the house with the Speaker Wetangula forced to bring the house to order.

“Order, order Honorable Members that is just a notice of motion, each one of you will have time to debate, ventilate and vote on this motion and you have a right to vote the way you want,” said Speaker Wetangula.

The report recommends the approval for appointments of all the other nominees President William Ruto wants to appoint to help him run his administration.

Suna East Member of Parliament Junet Mohamed told the House there is also a minority report rejecting the nomination of former Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa and former Meru Senator Mithika Linturi to join the cabinet.

“I want to single out and pay attention to the minority report that is rejects the appointment of Aisha Jumwa and Mithika Linturi.We have rejected three nominees in total,” Mohamed told the house.

MPs will vote on the recommendations Wednesday before the final report is sent to President Ruto.

“Any strong views you have for either of the nominee, I urge you to observe parliamentary decorum and dignity and debate the motion and you will vote on it at the end of debate tomorrow,” Wetangula stated. “The power of your vote that matters more than the manner you address yourselves with rigorous voices.”
