The alleged plot to oust majority leaders in the two legislative houses; National Assembly and Senate, might be a tall order, political analyst Ambrose Weda has said.

On Saturday, Wajir Woman Representative Fatuma Gedi called for the ouster of Aden Duale (National Assembly) and Kipchumba Murkomen (Senate), during a Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) rally in Kakamega, accusing them of disrespecting President Uhuru Kenyatta.

The remarks came amid claims of an ongoing plot to oust the two, alongside majority whips in the two houses, a plot Weda says might not succeed if it indeed exists.

Speaking on Wednesday, Weda stated that the houses are largely allied to Deputy President William Ruto, which makes it hard ousting the house leaders, who are also allied to the DP.

"It will be hard to kick them out. For Duale, for instance, he is a very popular man among the MPs. It will be a task," he said in an interview on KBC English Service.

He, however, also noted the said plan cannot be dismissed as a rumour, especially with the heating BBI constitutional amendment push.

He observed that since the initiative might need to go through parliament before a referendum is arrived at, it is necessary to ensure that the house is led by pro-BBI politicians.

Weda said that otherwise, lawmakers should be expected to skip the sittings where the referendum bill will be discussed, making attempt to capture the house very necessary.

He also added that if there is such a plan, it can be directly linked to President Uhuru Kenyatta, who, alongside ODM leader Raila Odinga, has been pushing for constitutional changes through BBI.

"It will be an attempt by Uhuru, especially if he seeks to pass the BBI through the parliament. Otherwise, people will just make themselves absent while, on the other hand, claiming to support the BBI," he added.

Though he has declared his support for the BBI and the proposed referendum, allies of Uhuru and Raila still see Ruto and his camp as the main opposition to the BBI.
