Governor Mutai Announces Next Step After Second Impeachment

Governor Mutai Vows Legal Battle After Second Impeachment

Kericho Governor Erick Mutai has strongly condemned his recent impeachment, calling the entire process unfair, pre-arranged, and lacking in transparency.

The impeachment took place on Friday, August 15, but according to the governor, what happened was not a legitimate impeachment.

Speaking shortly after the vote, Governor Mutai insisted that nothing lawful or truthful happened inside the Kericho County Assembly chambers.

He claimed that the impeachment was the result of a manipulated and rigged system that was planned in advance to remove him from office.

“There was no impeachment in Kericho,” he firmly said. “We raised our issues on the floor of the house, and we came in person.”

Mutai argued that the digital voting system used during the impeachment had been compromised even before the voting officially started. He alleged that nine staff members of the County Assembly had already received access to the voting platform before any MCAs had cast their votes.

“I can confirm that 9 staff of the county assembly had already been given the link to prevote. That explains why at the beginning of the voting, it began with 6 votes, not one vote, then it jumped to around 20-something, and within a short time, it went to 32, then 33,” he explained.

He also wondered why the Assembly resorted to using an SMS-based voting system when all 47 Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) were physically present in the chamber. In his view, the Assembly could have simply carried out a headcount or a manual vote if they were truly interested in transparency.

“The simple question I ask is this: Why resort to voting through SMS when all 47 members of the assembly are present? What is so hard about asking people to stand and then counting them? We only asked for one thing — fairness,” he emphasized.

Governor Mutai said he is not afraid of being removed from office as long as the process is fair, transparent, and conducted within the law.

“If someone feels I should be impeached, I am ready to go home with my head held high — if fairness and justice are upheld,” he declared.

He further criticised the digital voting system for not being verified by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) or any other recognized regulatory authority. He insisted that such a system should not be trusted in serious matters such as impeachment.

The embattled governor revealed that he is planning to take legal action. He believes he has enough evidence to challenge the impeachment in court and will also take the matter before the Senate.

“We have other evidence that we are going to submit both in court and in the Senate,” he said, suggesting that this is only the beginning of his fight.

Following the impeachment, the County Assembly is now required by law to notify the Senate within two days. The Senate will then examine the charges against Governor Mutai and decide whether to uphold or dismiss the impeachment by the County Assembly.

As the legal and political battle heats up, all eyes are now on the Senate to see whether the impeachment will stand or whether Governor Mutai will remain in office.
