The Homa Bay county Assembly has suspended two Members of County Assembly (MCAs) who are perceived to be political rebels.
Just in two weeks, the county assembly suspended Kojwach MCA Joan Ogada and his Central Karachuonyo MCA Julius Gaya.
A motion was tabled before the county assembly accusing Mr. Gaya of violating the assembly rules as well as assaulting a county assembly clerk.
Mr. Gaya, who has reportedly gained a reputation for his antagonistic methods, is said to have blocked the main entrance to the county assembly premises by parking his vehicle at the spot for over two hours.
Members debated the motion and vote against him, acting speaker, Gem East MCA Elias Orondo then imposed a one-and-a-half month suspension for the MCA.
Mr. Gaya who spoke to a host of journalists shortly after the decision faulted Kagan West MCA Philemon Onyango for tabling the motion to suspended him.
"It is wrong to say that I assaulted anybody in the county assembly because everybody knows my physical challenges," Gaya told journalists.
His counterparts, Ellyphalet Osuri (Ruma Kaksingri) and Julius Nyambok (Homa Bay Town Central) backed Mr. Gaya stating that the allegations were false.
Mr. Gaya, a pioneer of Homa Bay county assembly is widely remembered for causing unrest in the chambers back in 2016 when Opposition chief Raila Odinga officially opened the renovated chambers.
The incident then prompted Central Karachuonyo member to engage in a physical fight with the then nominated member Mary Amwata where he would later be attacked by then MCAs Ruth Ombura and Rachel Polo who mercilessly beat and scratched Gaya.
