Sabina Chege, a National Assembly nominee, will still serve as the minority deputy whip due to a court order prohibiting her removal.
Speaker Moses Wetang'ula announced during a National Assembly meeting on Thursday that a court order had been issued prohibiting her removal.
"Honorable members from the foregoing, my hands are tied with regard to the court order that has been brought to my attention," he said.
Did you read this?
"Until and unless further information is provided, that this order has been varied or set aside, the court order effectively suspends the decision by the minority party on the replacement of Sabina Chege as the deputy minority whip."
However, the Speaker accepted that the Azimio alliance had complied with all formal conditions for the leadership change.
He urged the Jubilee party and the Azimio group to try to reach an amicable agreement, warning that legal disputes would prove to be counterproductive and damage long-standing political ties.
"I'm confident that an amicable resolution of the issues shall positively contribute to the continuity of the business of the House and it's vibrancy," Wetang'ula said.
On May 30, Azimio kicked out Chege and replaced her with Embakasi West MP Mark Mwenje.
Following his nomination, the coalition wrote to Wetang'ula asking for Chege to be replaced before the start of the June session.
Chege was expelled as a result of her change in allegiance to the Kenya Kwanza administration of President William Ruto.
A section that is unfaithful to Uhuru recently appointed her as the party leader of the Jubilee party.
