Isiolo Governor Abdi Guyo Saturday met seven Members of County Assembly in Nairobi as part of efforts to reconcile with the team that wanted to oust him from office.
This follows a failed impeachment at both the County Assembly and at the Senate.
Guyo said he was ready to meet all the MCAs for reconciliation for the good of devolution.
“We are ready and willing to meet all concerned parties to solve these issues and work for the people of Isiolo.
This is the beginning of our reconciliation,” he said.
He said they plan more meetings with the leaders in the county to ensure devolution works.
“I urge all to forget the past and join us in ensuring we deliver.
We have mandate to deliver and it is imperative we do it,” he said.
Guyo had last week survived an impeachment attempt after the Senate ruled that the Isiolo County Assembly did not properly convene to debate and vote on the motion seeking his removal from office.
This followed a vote taken by Senators on Tuesday night after a total of 31 Senators backed the decision, while 11 opposed it.
Guyo’s legal team successfully raised a preliminary objection stating the impeachment did not take place as it is alleged by Members of the County Assembly of Isiolo.
Advocate Elisha Ongoya, who led Guyo`s defense team, said nobody had certified the Hansard presented by the County Assembly, terming the motion null and void and of no legal consequence, citing the impeachment of Kericho Governor Erick Mutai, which was abandoned since it did not meet the threshold.
