Governor Kawira Mwangaza says she's ready for dissolution of entire Meru County leadership over impending third impeachment process

Governor Kawira Mwangaza says she’s ready for dissolution of entire Meru County leadership over impending third impeachment process.

Meru County Governor Kawira Mwangaza has stated that she was willing to ask President William Ruto to dissolve the entire county administration. 

Speaking on Thursday, the first-term governor lamented that she was being frustrated by Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) in discharging her duties. 

“There are many organizations collecting signatures to dissolve the Meru County. As the governor, I think they should do what is good, if that (dissolution) is how citizens will get help, I will support them,” Mwangaza said on Thursday. 

The Governor went on to say that despite the backlash she has faced from the Members of the County Assembly and other leaders, she has served the people diligently. 

“There is no governor who has been impeached three times in a year. And despite the suffering, I have worked and ensured the absorption of the budget to the tune of 72%. It was hard because of the challenges. If God and the people see it fit, they will re-elect me,” she stated.

The governor was responding over another impeding motion just a week after surviving a second impeachment in the Senate.

A Meru resident, Michael Kibutha has moved to the High Court seeking revocation of the Senate decision.

The resident wants the court to find that Governor Mwangaza was procedurally impeached for gross violation of the Constitution.

Meru County Assembly members are also now targeting Kawira’s executive after two futile attempts to impeach the governor. 

The MCAs want to impeach her 12 County Executive Committee (CEC) members over misappropriation and misuse of County resources.
