Former nominated senator Gloria Orwoba has been released on a KSh 10,000 police cash bail after her arrest outside the Parliament Building on Wednesday, August 27, 2025. She faces potential charges of causing a disturbance and obstructing justice.

• Orwoba was arrested and processed at Central Police Station, Nairobi.
• She claimed she was denied access to the Senate despite presenting reinstatement orders, alleging her replacement, Consolata Wakwabubi, was illegally in the Upper House.
• The arrest coincided with a Senate impeachment hearing for Kericho Governor Eric Mutai, which Orwoba also deemed illegal.
• The Political Parties Disputes Tribunal (PPDT), chaired by Desma Nungo, previously nullified Orwoba's expulsion from the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) on August 20, citing procedural lapses.
