Senators have unanimously voted to adjourn their sitting to establish the whereabouts of three of their colleagues said to be under arrest.
In the heated debate Monday morning, senators demanded the unconditional release of their colleagues before they would continue with the debate on the county revenue sharing formula.
This followed successful adjournment motion by Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei who sought to interrupt the debate on revenue formula over the arrest of Samburu Senator Steve Lelegwe, Bomet counterpart, Dr. Christopher Langat, and the planned arrest Kakamega’s Cleophas Malala.
