Last week House Majority Leader and Garissa Township Member of Parliament, Aden Duale, railed against former Salaries and Remunerations Committee (SRC) Chaiperson Sarah Serem.
The outburst laid bare a closely guarded secret, that Uhuru's second-term nominations could have been made without the involvement of key Jubilee politicians.
It was out of character for Duale to be criticise a presidential nominee.
In the past, the Garissa Township MP has been quick to endorse the nominees without debate.
In Uhuru's final term, he has not spared a moment to criticise.
This is a strong indication that there could be no consensus on the nominee hence the pointed criticism.
In his first term, Uhuru forestalled the possibility of a backlash by engaging MPs to ensure that the nominations sail through.
It would be interesting to see how things pan out in so far as Serem's nomination is concerned.
