NAIROBI: BREAKING NEWS: There was no sufficient consultation between the two principals

                                     National Assembly Speaker Kenneth Marende

National Assembly Speaker Kenneth Marende has ruled that the nominations announced of four Kenyans to top State jobs were unconstitutional.
In a ruling on Thursday 17th February, 2011 Mr Marende said President Kibaki did not follow the spirit and the letter of the constitution in nominating Mr Justice Alnashir Visram to be Chief Justice, Prof Githu Muigai (Attorney General), lawyer Kioko Kilukumi (Director of Public Prosecutions) and William Kirwa as Controller of Budget.
The speaker said that the president did not carry consultations as it required in the National Accord.
Now the President and the Prime Minsiter will go back to the drawing board and come up with a new list that is constitutional.
