• 14 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this House has gone both ways on matters of impeachment. We have seen this House deal with impeachments the committee and plenary way. I have been an ardent supporter of the committee way because I feel they can interrogate issues more closely, just as Sen. Sifuna said. However, this matter is too weighty to be left on the shoulders of 11 Members. If anything, Members who have been proposed to be in that committee are not even willing.
