Medical services minister Anyang’ Nyong’o has moved to court to block the directive by the head of public service Francis Kimemia that all ministers and assistant ministers who won various seats in the March 4 elections to resign.
Nyong’o who is the senator-elect for Kisumu county sought the order from the High Court on the grounds that the ministers and their assistants can only resign once the new cabinet has been sworn in.
Last week Kimemia ordered through a president’s directives that Ministers and their assistants who were elected in various leadership positions should resign to pave way for the new government.
High court judge Isaac Lenaola has directed Nyong’o to serve Kimemia with the petition and file it with the clerk of the National Assembly. The hearing has been set for March 28.
