The fate of Ms Anne Waiguru as governor of Kirinyaga will be known when the Senate holds a special sitting to debate the report of the 11-member special committee that investigated allegations levelled against her by the county’s assembly members.

MCAs impeached her on June 9 on account of gross violation of the Constitution and abuse of office, charges that were canvassed on Tuesday and Wednesday during the trial conducted by the committee chaired by Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala.

The committee is expected to submit its report to the House today, being the 10th, and final, day on which the Senate must pronounce itself on the issue in line with the House Rules and the County Governments Act.

And as the committee retreated to write its report on Wednesday, its mandate is limited to establishing whether the evidence submitted before it, and which was relied upon to impeach the governor, is substantiated.

One of the determinations the committee must make is whether the governor abused her office by conferring herself a financial benefit for foreign trips she didn’t make.

MCAs listed about 13 foreign trips she never made but for which she was paid large sums of money, amounting to Sh10.6 million in imprests.
