“Mutuse” — Wahome Questions Politician Behind Alleged Bid to Impeach Wamatangi

City lawyer Wahome Thuku has publicly questioned the push to impeach Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi, casting doubt on both the motive and legal foundation of the process.

In a strongly worded Facebook post, Thuku turned his attention to Murera Ward MCA Moses Ngatha Wamburi, popularly known as Mutuse, who has been mentioned as the face behind the signature collection aimed at removing the governor from office.

Thuku appeared unconvinced that the impeachment drive is grounded in law or the Constitution. 

He challenged the MCA to clearly articulate the specific constitutional violations allegedly committed by Governor Wamatangi.

According to the advocate, impeachment is a serious constitutional process and not a political experiment or a popularity contest within county assemblies.

He warned that collecting signatures without solid legal grounds risks reducing impeachment to a reckless political game with lasting consequences.

Thuku posed a direct question to the MCA, asking what would happen if the county assembly fails to impeach the governor despite the signatures.

He also questioned the aftermath should the Senate overturn the impeachment, as has happened in several high-profile cases across the country.

The lawyer suggested that such outcomes could permanently damage the credibility of those driving the process, especially if no convincing evidence is presented.

In his remarks, Thuku implied that impeachment should not be weaponized as a tool for settling political scores or gaining short-term relevance.

He emphasized that leaders initiating such actions must be prepared to defend them publicly, legally, and morally.

The advocate further warned that reckless impeachment attempts undermine devolution and weaken public trust in county leadership.

Thuku’s comments have sparked debate online, with some users echoing his concerns while others defend the MCA’s right to initiate oversight processes.

As the conversation grows, attention now shifts to whether the impeachment push will translate into formal assembly action and, more importantly, whether it will withstand constitutional scrutiny.

For now, Thuku’s remarks have injected caution into a politically charged situation, reminding leaders that impeachment is a grave constitutional remedy, not a trial-and-error exercise.
