Corridors of Power

What should the staff at the dissolved office of the Government Spokesman do now that Muthui Kariuki was dumped and redeployed to other offices within the civil service? Soon after getting the news, Muthui asked his staff to hand over to him the keys and other office equipment they had in their possession. The staff refused as they believe it was him who was re-deployed and not the office. They are now waiting to hear where they will be sacked or re-deployed also.

The facilities in Parliament were stretched to the full when the Eleventh Parliament started its sessions a few months ago. The stand-off between the MPs and the Sakaries and Remuneration Commission over pay saw many of them hang around Parliament Buildings straining the washroom facilities to such an extent that a pungent smell pervaded the lobby for days on end. Now that the MPs have been receiving their salary on a regular basis, the MPs have deserted the premises. Even the Media Centre where journalists were ejected by Speaker Muturi to ostensibly create space for use by committees is now always under lock and key.

A senior counsel is reportedly planning to sue a popular social joint along Kiambiu Road because it allegedly compromised a Christmas rendezvous he had planned to hold. The lawyer had invited his friends, both local and foreign to attend what he had said would be a “Kingsize Christmas rendezvous”. He was greatly disappointment when the establishment failed to honor its promise to provide exemplary service. Instead, his guests had to wait for four hours for the food to be served and when it did, it was so bad that the lawyer had no option but to move his guests to another hotel something to eat.
