It is not in doubt that the trial court in impeachment matters is the Senate. Accordingly, the preliminary objections raised by counsel for the Governor will be determined by a vote of the Senate. The procedure will be by way of a motion in the usual manner. To this end, the.

Arising from the preliminary issues canvassed, the following are the issues that require determination by the Senate:. Whether the County Assembly of Isiolo held sittings on the 18th and 26th of June 2025 on the motion to impeach the Governor of Isiolo County. Whether, in light

On whether the impeachment meets the criteria of the legal threshold, the issue can only be determined once the Senate has interrogated all the facts and evidence in the impeachment motion against the standard for impeachment as laid out by the Supreme Court in Sonko vs County.

That on the alleged fraud and forgery of the Hansard reports, fraud must be specifically pleaded, and the particulars of the fraud must be stated on the face of the pleadings. Moreover, considering that the standard of proof for fraud is higher than the balance of probabilities,.

That the Governor’s request for a trial within a trial is unattainable, as it is a misguided attempt to obstruct and derail the proper proceedings of the House. Such a process is only necessary when the subject matter of the mini-trial cannot be established during the full trial.

That on the same question, the Speaker of the Senate recently ruled during the impeachment proceedings of the former Deputy President that any injunction interfering with the work of Parliament has no effect on Parliament in the exercise of its constitutional functions.

b). That with regard to the first preliminary objection, the question of court orders seeking to prevent the Senate from fulfilling its constitutional duties has been settled by the Supreme Court of Kenya in Martin Nyaga Wambora vs County Assembly of Embu & Another [2017] eKLR,.

In response to the preliminary objection raised by the advocate for the governor, the firm of Alex and Boniface Advocates LLP, advocates for the county assembly of Isiolo stated in writing the following:. a).That the preliminary objection raised by the Governor does not meet the

@HonAmasonKingi That the purported impeachment motion as presented by the County Assembly of Isiolo failed to meet the criteria and legal threshold under Article 181 of the Constitution, Section 33 of the County Governments Act, the Standing Orders of the Isiolo County Assembly, and the Standing.

The counsel invited the Senate to conduct a preliminary inquiry by way of a trial within a trial in limine with a view to establishing the authenticity of the Hansard reports provided by the Assembly in support of the impeachment proceedings. ~@HonAmasonKingi #BungeLiveSEN.

The law contemplates that impeachment proceedings can only be commenced and considered before the Senate upon the passage of a valid resolution by the County Assembly, in compliance with the procedure laid down in the law governing the removal of a governor from office. However,.

2. As stated, the resolution has evidently been submitted to the Speaker of the Senate. It is therefore upon the Senate, once informed of the existence of these orders, to determine whether it will proceed to handle the said resolution thereby abetting a blatant disregard for the.

1. On 27th June 2025 and 2nd July 2025, the High Court of Isiolo, in Constitutional Petition No. E004 of 2025 — Hon. Abdi Hassan vs County Assembly and Two Others, invalidated the proceedings of the County Assembly held on 26th June 2025, which gave rise to the impugned.

The Senate has been suspended for 30 minutes to facilitate the preparation and circulation of a supplementary Order Paper. Having concluded the hearing of the preliminary issues raised, and pursuant to Standing Order 38 as read together with Standing Order No. 1, for the

The deficiency of this motion is on multiple grounds. Broadly two. There's an order of court declaring it null and void and when it's declared null and void, it's not a valid motion. Secondly, it is a piece of paper. It is a piece of paper because even for this Senate, for a

Yes, this is the same motion that the court declared null and void. ~ Elisha Ongoya. #BungeLiveSEN.

This was not a conservatory order. This house has historically issued orders granted ex parte. The order we have here is an order granted hearing both parties. The assembly lawyers were even given time to go to their clients and take instructions and come back. ~ Elisha Ongoya.
