Governor Ngilu’s Impeachment Motion To Continue

Date:

Kitui Governor Charity Ngilu was on Thursday dealt a blow after the High Court judge refused to stop MCAs from impeaching her.

The High Court Judge, Justice Weldon Korir ruled that the governor’s application did not meet the threshold needed to be given conservatory orders.

Ngilu filed the case to the High Court on June 14, seeking to stop her MCAs from tabling an impeachment motion against.

“Impeachment of a Governor is akin to an election petition. It would, therefore, be advised that any person desirous of filing a court case with respect to impeachment should approach a High Court within the county in which the impeachment is taking place,” a court statement read.
