Article 181 of the constitution distinctively lays out strict grounds for removal of a governor from office. When the Senate Committee made prior decision to salvage Anne Waiguru, citation of weak and unsubstantiated evidence made the impeachment out of favour. Some laws that touch on impeachment of elected leaders were borrowed from the US and Britain. If indeed Africa wants to have a vision and mission to accomplish, our leadership and laws must intermarry. Claims by MCAs made during impeachment motions since the new constitution inception are sufficient enough for a governor to resign or get impeached.
