A section of North Imenti residents, led by prominent Meru-based lawyer Mugambi Kiogora, has launched a bid to recall area MP Rahim Dawood.
They accuse the three-term MP of voting in favour of the controversial Finance Bill 2024 and the impeachment of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua-actions they term unconstitutional.
The group also cites his alleged failure to exercise proper oversight in Parliament, particularly regarding abductions and killings both nationally and in North Imenti, as well as his failure to lobby for budgetary allocations to complete stalled development projects.
Kiogora, who is spearheading the signature collection process to be submitted to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), said he is acting at the behest of residents dissatisfied with the MP's leadership. "I have received numerous calls and requests from North Imenti voters who say they cannot wait until 2027.
