Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala expelled from ANC party

The governing council of the Amani National Congress (ANC) on Friday approved the expulsion of Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala from the party.

The party’s disciplinary committee had in November last year suspended and summoned Senator Malala to appear and respond to charges made against him during an Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party rally.

“…your utterances, and activities at the political rally convened by the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) at Kibra on October 27, 2019, prejudiced the integrity and reputation of the ANC Party, its members, and employees,” the committee told the legislator.

Senator Malala however failed to respond to the charges and refused to appear before the committee to defend himself hence their decision to expel him.
