Human rights and constitutional lawyer Willis Otieno has dismissed the wave of impeachment motions targeting governors, terming them political weapons rather than genuine accountability tools. Speaking on a local radio station on Thursday, September 4, 2025, Otieno claimed the ruling coalition is using ouster motions to punish county chiefs who fall out of line, instead of addressing corruption. He argued that conflict-of-interest charges being pursued do not meet the threshold for serious anti-graft action.
