Kenya Politics & Government3 stories
The impeachment process for governors and their deputies in Kenya, which was intended to protect public resources from misuse, has reportedly become a tool for corruption and wasteful spending. Kenyan senators have acknowledged that county assemblies frequently misuse the impeachment process against governors. This misuse has sparked concerns about the integrity of the exercise since the beginning of devolution. These concerns were highlighted during a recent high-profile impeachment hearing of Nyamira Governor Amos Nyaribo before the Senate. The process for governors and their deputies is now viewed by some as a broken system.
