National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula has dismissed reports that the National Assembly is working for the executive.
Speaking on Thursday, June 1 in Embu County, Wetangula stated that the house is independent and is not influenced by the executive in doing its mandate.
He noted that the members of the National Assembly despite being political players vote as individuals.
"The house is independent of the executive. The house consists of political players and so you have to mix the two because the political players have caucuses outside the house but come and vote as individuals. You must be alive to that," said Wetangúla.
