Tensions Explode in Senate as Treasury CS Mbadi Snubs Session — Senators Furious Over Disrespect.

A political storm has erupted in the Senate after Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi failed to appear before the House in what lawmakers are calling a blatant display of disrespect and disregard for parliamentary procedures.

In a jaw-dropping twist, Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna tore into CS Mbadi for bailing on a crucial Senate plenary meeting—citing “official commitments” only hours before the session began. What infuriated Sifuna even more? Mbadi was spotted on live TV the previous night, giving an interview on Citizen TV while Senators awaited his presence in Parliament.

“I saw him on TV just before the Inter Milan vs Barcelona match,” Sifuna raged on the Senate floor. “I didn’t even bother to watch the interview. I switched to football because I was expecting him here in this chamber! This kind of last-minute excuse is outright contempt for the House.”

Sifuna didn’t hold back, warning that ministers—regardless of their political affiliations—would face full accountability under his watch.

“As long as I sit here as Nairobi Senator, I will not allow any CS, ODM or not, to play games with this House. They serve the people, not their own convenience,” he declared.

Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale joined the firestorm, revealing that Mbadi also skipped a Finance and Budget Committee meeting the day before. “He gave us the same excuse, saying he was tied up in a Cabinet meeting. But in reality, he was busy attending a rally. This is deception,” said an incensed Khalwale.

Khalwale, a member of the ruling UDA party, warned of a dangerous trend if Parliament continues to tolerate rogue behavior from Cabinet Secretaries. “If we don’t act now, this government will spiral into the same dysfunction we saw during the grand coalition days,” he warned grimly.

The Senate chamber buzzed with outrage, with lawmakers demanding that Parliament crack the whip on absentee CSs who continuously ignore summons and treat Senate invitations as optional.

This scandal raises serious questions about executive accountability and whether Cabinet officials are above scrutiny—or if the Senate will finally draw the line.
