by Mustafa Juma

Nyali Constituency MP Mohamed Ali alias Moha Jicho Pevu is in the process of moving a motion to impeach Transport Cabinet Secretary James Macharia.

The vocal Journalist-turned politician through his official twitter account on Friday morning said he had decided to do so for the people of Mombasa, who are doomed to serious economic loss because of CS Macharia’s actions in forcing through patently illegal actions to prop up the profitability of the SGR.

He further noted that he was also doing it for the people of Kenya,who are saddled with projects that have not been completed under CS Macharia’s watch but have been,and have to be paid for.

The first term MP has accused CS Macharia of three allegations. First, the lawmaker wants the CS impeached for gross violation of article 10 (1)(c) and 2(a) of the Kenyan constitution.

By failing to undertake public participation with leaders, stakeholders, or even departments within the ministry of transport in implementation of a policy decision to have cargo from Mombasa transported via Standard Gauge Railway, the MP says CS Macharia was in gross violation of the constitution.

He also accuses the CS of gross misconduct contrary to the provisions of Article 125 of the Kenyan constitution. Mohamed Ali says CS Macharia has, in several meetings between him and parliamentary committees, appeared to commit perjury by lying under oath and giving evidence in parliament through provision of inaccurate information.

Moha Jicho Pevu notes that this is not something that he takes lightly,nor is it something that he is doing to serve the ends of political expediency.

He says, it would be a most callous action on his part to move this motion with no grounds to do so.

The vocal MP says it is in CS Macharia’s capacity as a public officer that he is asking the parliament to judge his actions and cease the sanction of impunity in his remaining term in office.
