    "content": "However, the rules guiding the proceedings in the impeachment of a governor or deputy governor provides that new evidence shall not be admitted. Mr. Speaker, Sir, further to that, permit me to bring to your attention the findings in the Civil Appeal No.21 of 2014, which was the case of Governor Wambora versus the County Assembly of Embu. In that case, Justice Odek (may the Lord rest his soul in peace), Chief Justice Martha Koome as then was and Justice Visram held that these proceedings of the impeachment of a President or Deputy President are pari materia to the impeachment of a governor. That is to say they are identical. So, what applies in those rules in the impeachment of the governor can and should equally apply to these rules. Finally, this House being a House of record, we are bound by our previous precedence. I am most obliged."
