    "content": "nominated to serve in this committee. You have heard references being made to a committee that I chaired that was meant to impeach the Governor of Murang’a. I have also heard someone say; “commonsense of the House”. In my own interpretation, it means that the House had already made up their mind as to the guilt of the Governor of Murang’a. I remember when I came to this House to present the report, one Senator told me that if there is no impeachment, we do not want the report. That means that the House had already condemned the Governor of Murang’a even before hearing evidence. Therefore, this now gives us the reason why we must allow this House to conduct this hearing, so that they can pass a decision that is informed. I say this because I have been watching and following the interest that this matter has created in the whole county of Nyeri and, indeed, the whole of the former central province and Kenya at large. Therefore, it will be only fair that this House listens to the evidence that will be adduced, debate it and take a decision, so that we can say that we made a decision as a Senate. This is because the matter of the committee of a House deciding the impeachment of a governor has been very divisive. I want to imagine that this should be the last impeachment Motion that is coming before this House. Therefore, it must be done by a whole House so that everyone takes responsibility. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you."
