Some MPs from the North Eastern and Eastern regions are irked by one of their own whom they claim has used about Sh 20 million, part of it from the ministry he heads, to organise a three day retreat for leaders from the region at the Samburu Lodge to discuss county matters.

 Central MPs are running scared following the launch of a lobby group, Central for a United Kenya Forum. The forum composed of former MPs, councilors and aspiring parliamentarians is sending shock waves as members, mainly powerful Kikuyu middle class, vow to oppose attempts by current crop of leaders from using the ICC and any tribal sentiments as a way of maintaining status quo come 2012. Those privy to ongoings fear the forum is being used by other communities and especially ODM top leadership.
