    "content": " Hon. Senators, you will recall that at the Sitting of the Senate held on Thursday 2nd November, 2023, I appointed Tuesday 7th and Wednesday 8th November, 2023 as the days when the Senate will hear the charges for the proposed removal from office, by impeachment, of Hon. Kawira Mwangaza, the Governor of Meru County. Subsequently, a Procedural Motion for the alteration of the sitting time of the Senate for Tuesday, 7th and Wednesday, 8th November, 2023, to facilitate the impeachment hearing against the Governor of Meru County was considered and approved by the Senate on Thursday, 2nd November, 2023. Consequently, a hearing programme has been prepared and appended to today’s Order Paper. Hon. Senators, as is the tradition, and in line with the schedule of activities for an impeachment hearing in Plenary, the Senate will hold a closed preparatory session to discuss the management of the investigation. This is aimed at ensuring that the process is conducted seamlessly and concluded timeously in line with the requirements set out under the County Governments Act and the Senate Standing Orders. I now, therefore, direct that all members of the public including the media, to withdraw from the Galleries and any form of broadcast from the Chamber to cease forthwith. The open session and hearing will thereafter commence at 11.00 a.m. as per the hearing programme. I thank you. You will signal, so that we proceed with the session. Once the media is out and there is no broadcast, you will let me know."
