June 27, 2020 - Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru has extended an olive branch to the 23 Members of County Assembly who unsuccessfully tried to oust her.
Speaking after the Senate invalidated charges that led to her impeachment, Waiguru called on the County Assembly to join her in addressing challenges identified by the Senate Special Committee.
The committee was established to probe allegations of gross-misconduct and abuse of office leveled against her.
Waiguru said she will embark on a reconciliation process to heal the rifts caused by the battles that saw the Assembly pass an impeachment motion against her.
She urged the MCAs to own up to their failures and prioritize allocation of funds for COVID-19 management and healthcare projects as proposed by the executive.
Waiguru agreed with the report's findings, which called for improvement in administration by officers and better checks and balances.
