The National Assembly is questioning the relevance of the Senate in Kenyan governance, suggesting its functions may overlap with those of the National Assembly and county assemblies. The Constitution (Amendment) Bill, 2024 could potentially lead to the Senate's abolition.

• The proposal reflects concerns about over-representation, with Kenya currently having 418 members of parliament and over 2,000 legislators when including County Assembly members.
• George Murugara, chair of the National Assembly Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs, asserts it's time to reassess the need for two parliamentary houses.
• Godfrey Osotsi, a senator, warns this move threatens devolution and reflects a neglect of pressing issues facing Kenyans.
