Sifuna dropped from Senate energy committee in reshuffle as ODM legal dispute looms

Embattled ODM Secretary-General Edwin Sifuna has today been kicked out of the powerful Senate Energy Committee, chaired by ODM leader Oburu Oginga, and replaced by Homa Bay Senator Moses Kajwang’ in a mini-reshuffle of Senate departmental committees. Unlike other members who were also moved, Sifuna was not assigned to another committee. The Nairobi Senator has, however, retained his membership in the equally influential Senate County Public Accounts Committee (CPAC) and the Senate National Security, Intelligence and Foreign Relations Committee. This comes as Sifuna awaits his fate tomorrow, with the Political Parties Disputes Tribunal set to make a ruling on a matter where he is challenging his ouster as the Secretary-General of the ODM party.
