Senate Speaker Kenneth Lusaka [Elvis Ogina, Standard]
Senate Speaker Kenneth Lusaka is appealing to governors to foster good working relationships with ward reps in order to stem the current wave of impeachments in the country.
Lusaka wants the county bosses to embrace dialogue with the MCAs and stop chest-thumping if at all they want to continue to stay in office.
The Speaker was reacting to the impeachment of Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko by the Nairobi County Assembly, which the senate stamped authority to his removal last week.
Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu was also impeached last year and his deputy Dr James Nyoro took over as governor.
