There was drama at a meeting chaired by Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i after an impeached Governor attempted to represent the county which ejected him.
Former Wajir Governor Mohammed Abdi Mohamud attempted to sit at a meeting where Dr Matiang'i was holding deliberations with the Council of Goverrnors.
Mr Abdi introduced himself as the Wajir Governor while his former deputy and present Governor, Ahmed Ali Muktar, did the same.
Muktar, who had arrived after former Governor Abdi, found that his predecessor had proceeded to take the present Governor's seat, leaving Muktar without a place to settle.
The incident caused confusion at the high-profile meeting as organizers attempted to get the Wajir governor placed at the conference table.
Members who attended were also confused as to which of the two was appropriately placed to represent the North Eastern region county.
Mr Abdi would later be escorted out of the National Development Implementation and Communication cabinet committee meeting with CoG by police officers.
