Nairobi Assembly Speaker Beatrice Elachi has cancelled the planned week-long induction for city MCAs.

The retreat was set to happen this week in Mombasa.

Explaining her decision, Ms Elachi said that it beat logic for the 122 MCAs to have travelled to the coastal city last Sunday to learn basics of the chamber yet they would be conducting  business at City Hall.

“I felt it was practical for the members to do it here at the chambers since, basically, they were to be taught how to enter, and how to use the systems and electronic machines,” said Elachi.

After the change of plans, the induction process has been going on at City Hall.

“Our staff are the ones inducting the MCAs,” she said.
