Currently, governors answer questions from senators through their respective standing committees. Except for my senator, of what use is it to appear at plenary before all senators?” posed the Makueni county boss. Nyeri’s Kahiga Mutahi agreed with his counterparts, saying there will be no difference as governors always appear before Senate committees. Senator Thang'wa now wants the Senate to introduce new clauses in the Senate Standing Orders to allow governors to appear before the House. To implement this far-reaching proposal, Mr Thang'wa is proposing an amendment to the Senate Standing Orders to introduce new clauses to Standing Order 59.
