Besieged Kisii Deputy Governor Robert Monda and the County Assembly face-off as his impeachment hearing begins in the Senate on Wednesday. The deputy governor faces four charges including abuse of office, gross misconduct and gross violation of the constitution. In the papers filed in the Senate, Monda will be represented by three lawyers led by senior lawyer Katwa Kigen. The deputy governor has also lined up six witnesses in the case that could make or break his political career.
