Published on June 26, 2020, the governing council of the Amani National Congress (ANC) approved the expulsion of Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala from the party.
The party's disciplinary committee had suspended and summoned Senator Malala in November last year to appear and respond to charges made against him.
According to the committee, Senator Malala's utterances and activities at the ODM party rally on October 27, 2019, prejudiced the integrity and reputation of the ANC Party, its members, and employees.
Senator Malala failed to respond to the charges and refused to appear before the committee to defend himself, leading to the decision to expel him from the party.
