The National Assembly faces an uphill task of raising a supermajority to overturn President Uhuru Kenyatta’s memorandum that rejected an enhancement of former MPs’ monthly pension following the recommendations of its committee.
At least two-thirds majority or 233 of the 349 MPs in the National Assembly are required to veto the President's memorandum, a feat that is yet to be achieved by the House since the promulgation of the 2010 Constitution.
