    "content": "issues have their place in the Constitution. There is the issue of whether the people of Embu or any other county would want to remove their Governor on a particular issue if he messes up. That is there. However, in this particular case, we are talking about specific issues like violating the Constitution, violating the Public Procurement and Disposal Act and abuse of office. The Committee found out that some allegations had not been substantiated. So, we would like to use this opportunity, as a Senate - I propose - to send a message to the other County Assemblies. Some of them have quarrels with their Governors and may rush for impeachment. It is not done like that. This is not a question of popularity between the Governor and the Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs) but whether the Governor has violated this or that law, starting with the Constitution. Wherever the MCAs are, it is good for them to take up responsibility. We, as the Senate, should take this as an example. One contributor said that CDF showed us that we could go into devolution and it could work. However, it will be disastrous for the real devolution to come and not to work simply because some offices were taken up by individuals who, in other circumstances, could have been working very well but given the responsibilities of a Governor or a Chief Executive, are not doing their job well. With those few words, I beg to support."
