"content": "Impeachment was introduced within the framework of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010. Impeachment is a very sensitive issue in this country, especially now when we are looking at what happens amongst the governors. We have had several attempts at impeaching governors. The first governor to be subjected to impeachment in this country survived the process and is about to complete his second term. In between, some other governors have been impeached and have gone home. So, the whole issue of impeachment, if we may recall from ancient history of England, was about looking at people who had committed high crimes and misdemeanours and needed to be removed from public office or to ensure that they did not continue with the bad behaviour. That works within the framework of Parliament, as the custodians of the law and overseer of public funds. At the county level, it takes place within the framework of the county assemblies."
