The impeachment motion against Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza was defeated when a Senate special committee determined that none of the 62 claims made against her were true.
The 11-member Boni Khalwale-led committee’s findings, which was presented to the Senate during a special session, offers some respite to the embattled governor who was on the verge of resigning over alleged offenses she allegedly committed while serving for only 64 days.

“The committee having investigated the matter in accordance with its mandate under section 33(4) of the County Governments Act and standing order 80(2) of the Senate Standing Orders reports to the Senate that it finds that the five Charges against the Governor of Meru County have not been substantiated,” reads the committee report,” reads the committee report.
