According to the letter, the Nyamira County Assembly NASA coalition has kicked out its majority leader Duke Oyagi Masira.

"We do notify your office as NASA coalition that changes have been made in the office of the leader of majority. In reference to outgoing Hon.

According to an MCA who sought anonymity, the deal to topple the Township Ward MCA was sealed on Monday at a meeting held between the NASA affiliated parties at Itino resort in Kisii County.

The letter received by the speaker on Thursday evening did not give reasons for the ouster, though an insider hinted that the outgoing leader had misrepresented the party in the assembly, failing in his roles among other reasons.

Duke Masira was elected on an Orange Democratic Movement  (ODM) party ticket.
