NASA principals. [Photo| Twitter]The Attorney General Githu Muigai has filed a petition in court to challenge the formation of NASA's People's Assembly. Muigai in his petition wants the court to declare formation of the assemblies illegal and unconstitutional.The case has been filed under certificate of urgency against county assemblies that passed the motion and Council of County Governors.A total of 15 county assemblies have already passed the motion to form the People’s Assemblies.“The establishment of the People’s Assemblies by the aforementioned county assemblies is an illegality as the institution is alien to the Constitution and is neither within the framework of the County Governments Act or any other legislation,” the court papers read in part. “The establishment of the proposed assemblies is also not envisioned within the mandate and the functions of the county assemblies or indeed the County Governments. The respondents continue to use public resources in illegal activities not envisioned in the Constitution," the papers added. The case will be mentioned on January 28.
