Meru Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) spent Sh3 million in legal fees to press for impeachment of governor Kawira Mwangaza in the year to June 2024, a new audit has revealed.

The audit reveals that the MCAs used funds they had not budgeted for to procure legal services for the impeachment, even as impeachments by other counties backfired in courts.
