The Senate will decide the fate of impeached Kericho Governor Eric Mutai next week during hearings scheduled for Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. The governor and other parties must respond to allegations by Monday, August 25, at 5 PM.

• 33 out of 47 Kericho County Assembly members voted to impeach Governor Mutai.
• The Senate opted for a full plenary hearing after a motion for an 11-member special committee failed due to the Minority Leader's refusal to second it.
• Governor Mutai faces accusations of gross constitutional violations, illegal tender awards, and misconduct in public office, which he denies.
