United Democratic Alliance lawmaker George Koimburi plans to table a motion for two hours of weekly parliamentary debates in mother tongues, spotlighting Kikuyu, Kenya's most spoken language.

The idea faces swift backlash as tribalistic and entitled, with critics asking about Kenya's other 41 tribes amid bigger issues like floods and corruption; Kenya's Constitution sticks to English, Kiswahili, and Kenyan Sign Language for official business.
