How the senators voted to fire Mwangaza

This follows the Senate's confirmation of Mwangaza's dismissal on Wednesday, August 21, a decision previously made by the Members of the County Assembly (MCAs).

The MCAs accused Mwangaza of abuse of office, gross misconduct, and violation of the constitution and other laws.

The Senate concluded its deliberations, with many leaders finding Mwangaza guilty of all crimes.

The process was not without controversy, as some senators criticized Speaker Amason Kingi for not allowing enough time for voting, especially for those attending the sessions closely.

However, the High Court temporarily postponed the prosecution of Mwangaza after opposing the decision of the Senate session on Tuesday, August 20, to approve his removal from office.
