The era of councillors throwing chairs at each other when they disagree, especially when they conducted elections, is long gone with the introduction of Election Act that requires aspirants for elective positions to have a certain level of academic qualifications.
It is, therefore shocking that our current members of county assembly, MCAs can still choose the outdated, barbaric way of solving conflicts physically.
The story of the hare and the elephant teaches us that knowledge and wisdom (represented by the tiny wise hare) is stronger than physical strength (represented by the big elephant).
Machakos county assembly majority leader Joshua Mwonga was removed by the Wiper party's national executive council for initiating impeachment motions against Machakos deputy governor Benard Kiala.
The majority leader was reinstated and MCAs disrupted the assembly in such a manner that is not expected of them.
MCAs should use tactics that befit their status to settle scores.
