Kiambu Senator Karungo Thang’wa has celebrated the approval of his County Governments (State Officers’ Removal from Office) Procedure Bill, 2023 for publication by the Senate Speaker.

The proposed legislation aims to establish a clear and fair framework for removing Governors, Deputy Governors, County Executive Committee (CEC) members, and County Speakers from office

Senator Thang’wa argues that the current system lacks the necessary safeguards to ensure due process and fair administrative action as outlined in Articles 47 and 50 of the Kenyan Constitution.

The bill has already gained initial support from the Senate Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs & Human Rights, with some suggested revisions.

Most importantly, this paves the way for public participation. Kenyans will now have the chance to offer their input and opinions on the proposed legislation before it progresses further.

In simpler terms, the proposed law discourages impeachments based on weak evidence or political motives.

It proposes a system that guarantees a fair hearing for any accused official, protecting their rights and ensuring adherence to due process.

The Senator believes this legislation will be instrumental in fostering greater transparency and accountability within county governments.

Key Points:

Senator Thang’wa’s bill proposes a clear framework for removing county officials from office.

The current impeachment process lacks necessary safeguards for fair administrative action.

The public will have an opportunity to contribute their thoughts on the bill before its enactment.

The goal is to establish a more transparent and accountable system of county governance.
