Senate Speaker Amason Kingi has defended senators against allegations of extortion and bribery made by President William Ruto, urging him to file a formal complaint. Kingi stated that the allegations lacked specific details and that he has received no official misconduct complaints.

• President William Ruto claimed a parliamentary committee received Sh10 million to approve the Anti-Money Laundering Act.
• Kingi said he had not received an official complaint alleging misconduct from the Executive or other government agencies.
• The Parliamentary Powers and Privileges Act (Cap 6) outlines a framework for addressing errant legislators, with the Committee of Powers and Privileges mandated to inquire into conduct within 14 days of receiving a complaint.
