On June 26, 2020, the Senate will hold a special sitting to consider the report of the 11-member Senate Special committee investigating the impeachment of Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru.
The committee, headed by Kakamega legislator Cleophas Malala, heard the impeachment motion against the embattled Kirinyaga Governor on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Before the hearing, Waiguru tabled 40 cartons of evidentiary documents to the Office of the Clerk of the Senate for her defence in conformity with the deadline set by the Senate committee.
The Governor presented three witnesses in defence, led by her Chief witness Mr Joseph Carillas Otieno, who serves as the Kirinyaga County Procurement Director.
Waiguru was ousted on June 9, 2020, after 23 out of 33 MCAs voted in support of her impeachment on the charges of violation of the constitution, abuse of office, and gross misconduct.
