West Pokot County Assembly Speaker Catherine Mukenyang was on Tuesday locked out of the chambers even after the High Court in Eldoret reinstated her.
Ms Mukenyang was returning to preside over the day’s business after the court allowed her to carry out her duties until the case challenging her impeachment is heard and determined.
Escorted by armed police officers, the speakers was denied entry by the sergeant-at-arms who said they did not recognize the order.
The embattled speaker spent at least 30 minutes outside the premises as a section of MCAs told her off.
