The Kenyan Senate will hear an impeachment motion against Kericho Governor Erick Mutai next week in a plenary session, after a proposal to form a special committee failed. The governor faces numerous accusations including misappropriation of funds, abuse of office, and gross misconduct, with over Sh85.7 million in alleged fictitious payments.

• Governor Mutai and the County Assembly must submit their arguments by Monday.
• Accusations include inflated purchases (e.g., sodas at Sh500 per bottle), Sh5.1 million paid without supporting documents, and Kericho's pending bills ballooning to Sh1.1 billion.
• The governor is also accused of diverting Sh351 million from farm cooperative funds and mismanaging Sh9 million raised for Londiani accident victims.
