New National Security Committee chairman Limuru MP Peter Mwathi.
Limuru MP Peter Mwathi has been elected to chair the powerful National Administration and Security Committee of the National Assembly.
Members of the committee unanimously endorsed Mwathi to take charge of the team following the death of Kiambaa MP Paul Koinange.
The committee vice chairperson Fatuma Gedi (Wajir), who had declared interest in the seat, withdrew her candidature in favour of Mwathi, citing intervention by ODM leader Raila Odinga.
National Assembly Majority Leader Amos Kimunya on Tuesday said that the Jubilee party had settled on Mwathi to replace Koinange.
