Former Meru Governor Kawira Mwangaza has accused President William Ruto's administration of playing a role in her removal from office.

Addressing the press on Tuesday evening, Mwangaza claimed she was impeached because she refused to bow to the pressures of political puppeteers who, she alleged, sought to use her position for their own selfish gains.

According to Mwangaza, her refusal to compromise her principles made her a target of the current regime, adding that the impeachment was not based on legitimate grounds but was instead a politically motivated scheme.

She went on to describe her impeachment process as a sham, asserting that her removal was primarily orchestrated by male politicians who manipulated the system to oust her.
