A showdown is expected Tuesday at the Nyamira County Assembly as two rival factions prepare to meet for the first time in six months to deliberate on a Senate report.

Both factions claim to be the legitimate leadership of the Assembly, with each having assumed the authority to call the House to order as it reconvenes from a five-week recess.

The Assembly has been functioning under parallel leadership-one led by former Ekerenyo Member of County Assembly (MCA) Thadeus Ndubi and the other by Speaker Enock Ogori Okero.

The faction allied to Nyabaro has enjoyed the support of a majority of MCAs and had previously barred Okero from accessing the Assembly premises, despite a court order reinstating him.
