    "content": "Over the last eight years, we have sent over Kshs2 trillion to the counties. If we cannot show what that money has done in the counties, it shows that some of the money has been leaking and not translating into service delivery for the people. This law will help some of those people who may cite unfairness since there will be a proper procedure to be used. The legal basis that will be used to impeach one governor will be the same law that will be used to impeach other governors. I am sure by the time we are through with this Bill, this House will have enriched it to ensure that the standard approved is good, and everyone feels fairly treated in the way they are removed from office, should an impeachment process eventuality come to fruition. So, I have faith that this Bill will seal the existing loopholes. At the very least, the Bill should remove the confusion on the intent of impeachment as a tool to engineer good governance as well as the confusion in respect of the constitutional standard for impeachable offences."
