National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah has expressed appreciation to Members of Parliament from both the National Assembly and the Senate for their support in advancing the government’s development agenda, acknowledging that the journey has not been without significant challenges.
Speaking during a parliamentary engagement, Ichung’wah noted that lawmakers across the two Houses have played a critical role in facilitating the implementation of key government policies and legislative priorities.
He emphasized that despite political differences, economic pressures, and heightened public scrutiny, Parliament has largely demonstrated unity when it mattered most.
According to the Majority Leader, the support from MPs and senators has enabled the government to push through crucial bills aimed at stabilizing the economy, enhancing service delivery and strengthening governance frameworks.
He pointed out that legislative backing is essential for translating policy proposals into actionable programs that directly impact citizens.
Ichung’wah acknowledged that the current political and economic climate has tested the resilience of both the government and Parliament.
Rising cost of living concerns, fiscal constraints and public expectations have placed lawmakers under intense pressure.
However, he said the willingness of legislators to engage constructively, even in moments of disagreement, has ensured continuity in government operations.
The work of Parliament is never easy, especially during challenging times, but the commitment shown by members from both Houses has been instrumental in keeping the government’s agenda on track,” Ichung’wah said.
