This happened during the long, costly and divisive Vietnam War, which was fought for 19 years from late November 1955 to April 1975. In a bid to scuttle his impeachment, Sonko sequestered about 70 MCAs in Kwale county, hosted them in high-end luxurious hotels, and switched off their phones to ensure they did not vote for his impeachment motion. But to his surprise, the impeachment vote still carried the day. Begs the question, was this a case of forged or fragged impeachment? Did the impeachment vote pass through hacking of unwilling MCAs’ credentials, or was it a case of Sonko’s own soldiers throwing him under the bus?
