It may be too early for siting Members of County Assembly (MCAs) to celebrate an April ruling directing the government to pay them for eight months after the August 8 elections are held.

Attorney General Githu Muigai has lodged an appeal against the verdict where High Court judge Edward Muriithi ruled that the five-year tenure for MCAs ends on March 3, 2018 in line with Article 177(4) of the Constitution that provides they serve for five years.
