Reacting to the summons, Maina stated, "Surely, the more things change, the more they remain the same. Governments for you."
The lawmaker has been one of the supporters of the deputy president during the speculations on his impeachment before the motion was eventually tabled in Parliament.
On Tuesday, October 2, the National Assembly invited Kenyans to submit their views on the impeachment motion by sending their views via email to [email protected] before October 5.
Similarly, the views can be forwarded to the Clerk of the National Assembly via P.O. Box 41842-00100 Nairobi or hand delivered to his office at Main Parliament buildings in Nairobi.
Parliament disclosed that public hearings on the motion will be held on Friday, October 4, across all the counties in the country, where the views will be collated.
