Kiminini MP Chris Wamalwa has called on the members of parliament from the Jubilee Party to work independently.
The Ford Kenya lawmaker said MPs were elected to serve the public and should, therefore, receive orders from nobody while in parliament.
Citing cases where Jubilee MPs purportedly received orders from the Executive over legislation, Wamalwa who is also the Deputy Minority Whip, said elections and politics were over and it was time to work for the people.
Wamalwa was addressing the press in Mombasa during the opening session of the Post Election Seminar of National Assembly members at Prideinn Hotel on Monday.
His remark came even as Garissa Township Member of Parliament Aden Duale asked the opposition - NASA coalition not to criticise the Jubilee government without tangible reasons.
"The opposition should not criticise the government for the sake of it. We should not oppose the government merely for the sake of politics, rather than offering constructive criticism while taking cognisance of the achievements of the government and interests of the general public," said Duale.
"Let us not oppose the government for the sake of politics. Parliament’s role is to offer oversight on government which includes pointing out failures and give suggestions," he added on Monday.
According to the Majority Leader, the Minority Party will earn respect by the extent of the interest they show in their responsibilities.
