Wiper Leader Kalonzo Musyoka has vehemently opposed NASA nominees to Parliamentary Service Commission, one of the most influential parliamentary committees.
Three MPs, Aisha Jumwa (ODM), Gladys Wanga (ODM) and George Khaniri (ANC) had been fronted by the NASA coalition, a move that was opposed by Wiper.
Through Borabu MP Ben Momanyi, Wiper regretted the move, accusing Raila Odinga's ODM for lack of consultation.
"We are senior partners in NASA yet things are done behind our back. The list should not admitted in parliament," Momanyi said.
He added: "As a party, Wiper feels left out in crucial decision making and the list should be suspended until proper consultations are done."
Appointment to parliamentary committees has been a thorny issue within NASA coalition, with coalition partners crying foul.
Under the arrangement, Wiper was given Senate Minority Whip (Mutula Kilonzo Jnr) and National Assembly Deputy Minority Leader that is held by Robert Mbui.
