What you need to know:
- Mr Osotsi also wondered why Ms Kihika had repeatedly failed to honour the summons considering that she was not the governor during the period under probe.
- He said the committee was not satisfied with the reasons given by Ms Kihika for skipping the summons as she was seen gracing public events within the country despite saying she was not in Kenya.
The Senate has fined Nakuru Governor Susan Kihika Sh500,000 for failing to honour summons to appear before the House on three separate occasions.
The Senate's County Public Investments and Special Funds Committee, chaired by Vihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi, issued the fine on Monday while ordering the county boss to pay by July 4, 2023, the fresh date on which she has been summoned afresh to appear before the team.
