Gladys Chania ejected, Neisula Lesuuda gets parliamentary post in KANU party changes

In a notice dated December 22, KANU also notified ORPP that their offices have moved from Chania Avenue in Kilimani to the Prudential building, located at the Nairobi CBD. 

Tiaty MP William Kamket, a long-time ally of KANU chairman Gideon Moi, before he switched camp to President William Ruto’s Kenya Kwanza, is set to lose his party chief whip position. 

The slot will be allocated to North Horr MP Ware Guyo Adhe. 

Additionally, Kiambu politician Gladys Chania has also been stripped off her position as KANU Women Council National Secretary that has been handed to Tume Abduba. 

Chania is facing murder charges following the brutal killing of her husband George Mwangi. 

KANU also gave the parliamentary leader slot to Samburu West MP Naisula Lesuuda. 

Lesuuda replaces former nominated MP Maison Leshomo who lost in the Samburu Woman Representative’s race to Pauline Lenguris of UDA in the August general election.

This change of guard comes days after the party suspended Secretary General Nick Salat and summoned him to appear before the disciplinary committee to determine his fate in the former ruling party. 

Brenda Majune will be the party’s women council national treasurer, taking over from former East Africa Legislative Assembly member Sarah Bonaya.
