Chaotic scenes were witnessed at the Nairobi County Assembly on Monday as a group of MCAs stormed into Speaker Beatrice Elachi’s office in an attempt to eject her.

Ms Elachi had reported back to her office on Monday despite her impeachment by the MCAs last week. The Speaker has since obtained a court order suspending her impeachment.

The rowdy MCAs broke into the Speaker’s office and camped there chanting ‘enough is enough’ and ‘Elachi must go’.

Majority Leader Abdi Guyo insisted that the position of County Assembly Speaker is now vacant and there is no going back on their decision to impeach her.

Journalists were later locked out of the Speaker’s office as Ms Elachi settled for a meeting with the leadership of the assembly.
