    "content": "(i) Failure to account for the financial resources allocated to the county in disregard to Article 201(a) 183(3) of the Constitution and Sections 149 and 166 of the PFM Act. (ii) Lack of accountability to the County Assembly pursuant to Section 32 of the County Governments Act, 2012. (iii) Misappropriation of resources through corrupt procurement processes, contrary to Section 19 of the Wajir County Disaster Management Act, Sections 82(1)(b), 119(5), 201(a), (d) and (e) of the PFM Act and Sections 45, 46, 47, 48, 53, 54, 57, 71 and 74 of the Public Procurement and Disposal Act, 2015. 2. Abuse of Office/Gross Misconduct, contrary to Article 235 of the Constitution, the County Governments Act, 2012, and the Public Service Act by allegedly constantly reshuffling Chief Officers (COs) at the convenience of the Governor’s wife, exercising nepotism, favoritism and other corruption malpractices contrary to Article 73(2)(b) of the Constitution. Furthermore, the Governor has allegedly usurped the powers of the County Public Service Board (CPSB) by appointing persons to hold office. Hon. Senators, in terms of the way forward, following the reading of the charges against the Governor, Standing Order No.75 (1)(b) of the Senate Standing Orders gives the Senate two options on how to proceed with the matter. “The senate may- (i) by resolution, appoint a Special Committee comprising eleven of its members to investigate the matter; or (ii) investigate the matter in plenary.”"
