Two MPs, a Senator and a National Assembly member, could find themselves jobless if their party leader makes good his intentions to haul them before their party's disciplinary committee. The party leader who did not win the presidency in the concluded elections was angered by the behaviour of the two elected members after they met his rival who did not also fair well in the presidential election for "coalition talks".

A former MP who was vocal during the campaigns of his presidential candidate in the last elections had to eat humble pie when he was told by the guards at his former boss' compound that he was no longer welcome at the home. The man who lost his bid to retain his parliamentary seat had been a regular visitor at the home often taking charge of campaign schedules. Last week he was terribly embarrassed when he was told that he could not go beyond the gate. His attempts to get through to his former boss failed as he was informed that his services were not required. The man who had a habit of asking for kitu kidogo every time he visits according to sources finally left the compound.

Colleagues of a senator from Western province have put the man on the spot for accepting a bribe to tilt the vote during the election of the Speaker of the Senate. The man was seen animatedly engaging a leading member of the Jubilee Alliance after the inconclusive first round of voting before he retreated to his seat to vote in the second round. Tongues are now wagging about what the man may have been given, or promised by the Jubilee leader.
