The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party’s disciplinary committee has summoned nominated Senator Karen Nyamu for disciplinary action.
According to a statement seen by The Kenya Times, UDA’s Disciplinary Committee chair Charles Njenga had summoned Nyamu in December over her alleged misconduct while at a party in December 2022.
UDA said that Nyamu’s misconduct while at a party in Dubai and which was captured in a viral video that trended both on social and mainstream media injured its reputation.

“In the said incident which is well captured on video that has been widely circulated in both mainstream and social media, your conduct and mannerism as exhibited in that incident have brought shame, disrepute and lowered the dignity of the party which nominated you to the office of Senator,” Njenga wrote.
After appearing before the committee last month, the President William Ruto-led outfit resolved to grant the lawmaker more time to respond to the allegations levelled against her.
“The senator was allowed more time to respond to the allegations levelled against her by a party member. The committee adjourned the matter to 9.00 am on 24th February,” UDA stated on January 20, 2022.
The legislator was captured in a video that circulated across social media platforms for the better part of the Christmas period while engaging in a scuffle with Mugithi Singer Samuel Muchoki (Samidoh) and his wife Edith Nderitu.
She later owned up to her mistake, saying she had broken up with Samidoh, who is the father of her two children and that she had quit alcohol in 2023.
