Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza has spoken out after the Senate Special Committee rejected the impeachment proposal against her.

In a Facebook statement on Friday, after the verdict, Mwangaza quoted the Bible, seemingly in a celebration.

"Give thanks in all circumstances; For this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.  1 Thessalonians 5:18," she wrote.

The Committee chaired by Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale said it did not see the ground for her impeachment, as Meru MCAs failed to substantiate all allegations they levelled against her.

"All the 11 members agreed and recommended to this house that all the charges were not proved or substantiated," Khalwale said.

Mwangaza was impeached on December 14.

She was accused of nepotism, illegal appointments, and unlawful dismissal of the constitution and statutory functions of county organs. She denies all the allegations.

The governor was also accused of appointing her husband Murega Baicu as the Hustlers Ambassador and Youth Patron alongside other roadside appointments of county workers.
