Governors want an impeachment procedure similar to that of the president, as they are all "elected by the people". Council of Governors chairman Peter Munya further noted that motions against Governors have been messy, hence the need for a bill to address loopholes. "This will see justice done for a governor being impeached," he said on Thursday when Eldas MP Adan Keynan proposed Impeachment Procedure Bill 2016. It provides an overall framework for removing public officers including the President, DP, cabinet secretaries, governors, deputy governors and county executives. The petition will be submitted to the clerk of the relevant House or through an MP on their behalf, with the Speaker's consent.
