Nyamira County Assembly has rejected the nomination of Dr James Gesami (

This means Governor Amos Nyaribo will have to go back to the drawing board to pick another nominee.
The vote was conducted through secret ballot where those in support of the report carried the day with 21 votes while those against were 15.
The results are a culmination of two weeks of lobbying against and for the nominee of the deputy governor nominee. Earlier on, tempers flared after the Appointments Committee rejected Gesami.
The morning and afternoon sessions saw MCAs opposed to Gesami s nomination sticking to their guns against attempts to amend the report.
