A political showdown is looming in the Senate with the lawmakers set to consider the impeachment of Kisii Deputy Governor Robert Monda. “We expect that due process shall be followed to give the deputy governor and the people of Kisii justice,” Narok Senator and Minority Whip Ledama Olekina told Nation yesterday. If a majority of the senators, 24 in this case, vote to uphold the impeachment charge, the deputy governor will cease to hold office. Should he be impeached by the Senate, the deputy governor also has an opportunity to appeal the resolutions in a court of law. This will be the second time the Senate will be hearing an impeachment case against a deputy governor following Mr Oduol’s case.
