The High Court in Kisii has struck out a constitutional petition filed by Member of County Assembly Bouse Mairura challenging his six-month suspension from the Kisii County Assembly.
Justice Nixon Sifuna on Wednesday struck out the petition and an accompanying application seeking to suspend the implementation of the disciplinary decision, ruling that Mairura had failed to exhaust internal dispute resolution mechanisms available within the Assembly.
Mairura had moved to court on June 3, 2026, challenging a decision by the Assembly’s Committee of Powers and Privileges to suspend him from the House for six months.
