Chaos erupts at burial in Kericho as MCAs clash over Governor Mutai’s impeachment
Chaos erupts at burial in Kipkerieny village in Kericho County at the burial of the late former Member of County Assembly Jones Kiplagat Mutai, after members of the Kericho County Assembly differed due to political tensions concerning the impeachment of Governor Erick Mutai.
Reports from mourners indicated that the unrest began after Nominated MCA Dora Keino expressed her support for the impeachment, causing outrage among Governor Mutai’s supporters.
The Senators are expected to determine whether to uphold the motion or give him another chance, after it was passed last week by 31 MCAs.
The motion cited allegations of gross constitutional violations, abuse of office, and misuse of public resources.
Amason Kingi thereafter ruled that the hearing on the impeachment motion will be heard on October 14-15, 2024.
