The Senate Special Committee probing the grounds for the impeachment of Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza will hold its second and final hearing on Wednesday. The 11-member committee adjourned Tuesday's session at midnight and will start today’s hearing at 9.30am. The County Assembly has accused Kawira of violating the Constitution 62 times, all committed within 64 days. All 67 Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) present during the impeachment session voted to remove her. In her opening remarks on Tuesday, Kawira through her lawyer Elias Mutuma said she was a victim of blackmail.
