There was chaos at the Baringo County Assembly on Thursday afternoon whilst MCAs were debating the BBI Bill.
According to reports, drama begun after Ernest Kibet- who vied as an independent candidate- was slapped twice on the back by Mogotio Ward MCA Charles Kosgei throwing the assembly into chaos.
Amaya Ameja Selemoi, a local MCA claimed that a section of Jubilee MCAs were planning to shoot down the motion without the residents engaging in public participation.
“Mr. speaker, I know there are some Jubilee members here who are conniving to shoot down the bill which is sponsored by the government, this is very unfair” Selemoi said.

Several videos had shown the assembly MCAs in shouting matches with the debate appearing to have stopped altogether momentarily.
