Opposition Members of Parliament staged a walkout after Kenya’s National Assembly approved a motion to privatize the Kenya Pipeline Company. The legislators protested the move, claiming it was introduced without proper notice or public participation. Government-allied MPs defended the process, arguing that privatization would improve efficiency and accountability. The opposition vowed to challenge the decision in court, calling the process opaque and biased in favor of select individuals rather than serving national interests.
