Chama Cha Uzelendo (CCU) party leader Wavinya Ndeti wants politicians who have defected defect from their parties to other parties to relinquish their positions and seek fresh re-election.
Ndeti says that the Political Parties Act states that anyone seeking to defect to other party has to relinquish his or her position.
Speaking on Citizen TV on Tuesday, Ndeti said that part defectors are contravening the Political Parties Act.
She claimed that defectors are blindly decamping to other parties without considering the repercussions.
“The law clearly indicates that defectors should either resign from their current positions or seek re-election before moving to their new parties,” she said.
The Machakos gubernatorial aspirant asked political parties to decisively deal with defectors who contravene party procedures.
Ndeti who is also the Political Parties Liaison Committee chairperson said that for democratic space to be widen politicians have to adhere to outlined regulations under the Political Parties Act.
Several politicians have decamped from their parties to others in the recent past.
Jubilee Party has received majority of politicians who have defected from their parties.
On Tuesday Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party wrote to defectors asking them to show-case why disciplinary action should not be taken against them for defecting.
Wiper Party has also asked defectors to relinquish their positions and seek re-election with their new parties.
