Nyandarua County Assembly Deputy Speaker Zachary Njeru is among three county officials found guilty of contempt of court. The deputy speaker, Majority leader Edinald King’ori and the acting county assembly clerk Elizabeth Muthui were found to have gone against court orders directing that they allow the County Assembly Speaker Ndegwa Wahome access to his office, return his official car and the assembly mace.
Appearing before Justice Hillary Chemitei, he fined the three Ksh 400,000 each or serve two months in jail. Nyandarua County Commissioner Benson Lepamorijo and County Commander Zachary Kimani were also part of the case
Justice Chemitei gave the county commissioner and the commander two days to ensure that the assemble is open for Wahome, his official car is returned and his mace taken back.
Ndegwa Wahome had been impeached by a group of MCAs but was reinstated by the High Court.
