The secret talks to impeach Nairobi County Assembly Speaker Beatrice Elachi are gaining momentum.
Early this week, Waithaka MCA Antony Kiragu and nominated MCA June Ndegwa exchanged bitter words over the plans.
Ndegwa accused Kiragu of “plotting” to eliminate those opposed to Elachi’s impeachment.
She said Kiragu was in a secret meeting held in Mombasa to remove Elachi.
June said Kiragu has collected at least 55 signatures from MCAs who secretly want Elachi “sent in the political cold”.
On the other hand, Kiragu accused her of engineering his suspension from the Assembly.
He said Ndegwa gave false information to the Powers and Privileges Committee that led to him being summoned.
He added that claims that he snubbed the committee are false.
Kiragu added that he is determined to ensure June Ndegwa loses her position as the Majority Whip.
Ndegwa on the other hand accused Kiragu of “looking down upon women,”
