Coalition against sexual violence, CSV wants action taken against Tigania Member of parliament, Mpuru Aburi and Meru Deputy Governor Isaac Mutuma over the reckless comments they made about Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza.
The statement read,”Their actions deserve swift and decisive action. We demand that the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission take on this matter as these leaders have clearly fallen short of the conduct for a public officer.”
“Furthermore, we demand that they be held accountable for their actions through appropriate recourse,” they added.
The group further demanded that the two withdraw their sentiments and issue a public apology to the governor.
He stated,”These disgraceful remarks callously uttered to a cheering crowd, represent an appalling attack on the Governor’s person. The statements are a gross affront to not only the Governor but also to the dignity of women everywhere.”
Notably, The group commended the senate for standing by Governor Kawira Mwangaza and finding her not guilty in all the seven charges.
They stated,” It is important that accusations leveled at leaders are substantiated and meet the threshold required objectively.”
On Wednesday, The senate found the seven charges not substantiated hence they cannot remove her from office.
Amason Kingi ruled,”The result of the division indicates that the Senate has not upheld any of the impeachment charges. The Senate has failed to remove from office by impeachment Governor Kawira Mwangaza and the Governor accordingly continues to hold office.”
