    "content": "During the term of the 11th Parliament on five occasions, the Senate considered the proposed removal from office by impeachment of governors and deputy governors by way of a special committee and on one occasion, in the plenary. Further, during the term of the 12th Parliament on two occasions, the Senate has considered the proposed removal from office by impeachment of the governors by way of special committees and on another two occasions, we have decided to go the plenary way. At a special meeting of the Senate Business Committee held on 3rd May, 2021, the Members deliberated on the proposed removal from office of the Governor for Wajir County. They deliberated and resolved that a Motion be moved in the House to allow Senators an opportunity to agree on the procedure to be followed on the proposed removal from office by impeachment of the Governor of Wajir County in accordance with our Standing Orders. Accordingly, should the House resolve to proceed with this matter by way of special committee, the Senate Majority Leader and the Senate Minority Leader in consultation with the Senate Business Committee will agree on the proposed Membership of the special committee for consideration and approval of the House pursuant to Standing Order No. 181(3). Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a very unique Motion today. As you have noticed, this Motion proposes the Committee but the names are not there."
