President William Ruto has slammed the brakes on the intended purge of his critics and internal rebels from plum parliamentary committee leadership positions.
The move may come as a temporary reprieve for several allies of impeached DP Rigathi Gachagua, who were facing ouster for defying positions taken by the party.
According to other parliamentary sources, President Ruto has urged his compatriots to allow the political temperatures post-Gachagua ouster to cool down.
The President is said to be not keen on stirring more dissent, especially in the Mt Kenya region.
Gachagua has been leading the charge against Ruto, with MPs who participated in his removal, especially those from his Mt Kenya backyard, facing a nightmare.
