"content": "leader both in the county and the national level, holding a senior leadership position in the Parliament of Kenya. Article 93 of the Constitution states that Parliament consists of the National Assembly and the Senate. Although the National Assembly and the Senate are required to perform their respective functions in accordance with the Constitution, it is the role of Parliament to protect the Constitution and promote democratic governance of the Republic. Roles of legislation, representation and oversight belong to Parliament. It would not be correct to say, as we were urged to find, that the mandates of the Senate and the National Assembly are so distinct that the affairs of county governments and county officials will fall entirely outside the jurisdiction and oversight of the National Assembly so as to remove a Member of the National Assembly from any possible connection with oversight of county officials. For this reason, therefore, I find and rule that it does not promote the purposes, values and principles of the Constitution nor contribute to good governance for the Legislature to put itself in the place where one part of the Legislature serves as a judge in matters relating to integrity in public affairs and Members of the other party of same Legislature act as an advocate for the State official parties to the matter. In the present matter, I also know that the Deputy Governor is represented by other counsel, among them learned counsel Mr. Katwa Kigen, and will not be deprived of his right to legal representation. I, therefore, direct that Hon. Silvanus Osoro, MP, ceases forthwith to serve as part of the legal team for the Deputy Governor."
