City lawyer Peter Wanyama has criticised Speaker Moses Wetang'ula, dismissing the Speaker's allegations of defamation in a demand letter.
In his response, Wanyama denied making any defamatory statements, stating that his comments were fair comment, truthful or an honest opinion - all of which are protected by the Constitution.
He also criticised Wetang'ula's legal team for failing to specify which words were defamatory, where they were published and how they harmed the Speaker's reputation. "Without clear particulars, the allegations are baseless," Wanyama stated.
