An Eldoret court has upheld the positions of Turkana County Assembly Majority Leader Stephen Edukon and Majority Chief Whip William Etubon Samal. The court dismissed a May 5, 2026 UDA Caucus meeting and associated resolutions aiming to remove them from office, declaring them unlawful and unconstitutional. Edukon and Etubon retain their roles unless removed via a Constitutionally and Standing Orders compliant process.
The court also invalidated a May 6, 2026 communication regarding new office holders, issuing a permanent injunction against their appointment. Each party is responsible for their own legal costs in the matter.
