Elgeyo Marakwet senator Kipchumba Murkomen has told off Makueni senator Mutula Kilonzo junior after he should interests of defending impeached governor Anne Waiguru.
Senator Mutula Junior had argued the MCAs might have acted in contempt of a High court order to impeach the governor.
According to Mutula, the move by the Kirinyaga MCAs raises serious fundamental questions of law, and thus, the senators have to await for the proceedings.
“The question whether the County Assembly of Kirinyaga acted in contempt of the High Court order by proceeding to impeach Governor Anne Waiguru raises serious fundamental questions of law . We await the proceedings !” he tweeted.
But responding to senator Mutula Junior, the former Majority leader in the senate argues that the lawmaker might have been whipped by his NASA coalition, and the senator should tell the nation so.
Murkomen argues that it is for either senator Mutual to tore the line, or Raila Odinga-led ODM party takes back their seat.
“Stop shilly-shalling, just tell the nation you have been whipped. You either tore the line or ODM will take their seat,” posted Murkomen.
Governor Waiguru was on Tuesday June 9 impeached after 23 out of 33 MCAs voted to kick her out.
Some MCAs on Monday June 8 spent their night at the Assembly as they prepared to debate an impeachment motion against Governor Waiguru.
The MCAs, who claim to be the majority, trooped to the County Assembly premises on Monday night as they sharpened their tools to tackle the ouster motion against Waiguru.
There was confusion at the Assembly this morning as the pro-Waiguru group insisted that there is a valid court order stopping the impeachment while her opponents insisted that the orders had elapsed as the matter was not prosecuted.
The pro-impeachment MCAs said they have the support of 24 out of 33 members of the county assembly.There was confusion at the assembly as the order paper for the business to be transacted today had not been circulated.
Waiguru has however, vowed to fight on. She claims that the impeachment motion against her was ill-informed and illegal.
She said the issues raised in the motion are baseless and a waste of valuable time that would be better spent handling serious issues impacting the County including Covid-19 pandemic.
She further claimed that she sought and obtained a court order from the High Court stopping any proceedings by the Assembly the impeachment motion until the numerous issues that she had raised with the court are determined.
