Applause to Hon. Senator Okiya Omtatah for Defending the Constitution


Hon. Senator Okiya Omtatah, a distinguished resident of Busia County, deserves commendation for his unwavering stance in defending the Constitution during the recent Senate debate on the motion of impeachment. In the face of a highly charged political atmosphere, Senator Omtatah remained a beacon of reason and constitutional fidelity.

During the Senate discussions, Omtatah articulated a vital concern: the importance of following constitutional guidelines, especially when it comes to matters as grave as the impeachment of a Deputy President. His words were not only timely but reflective of a profound respect for the rule of law, which he rightly pointed out must be upheld above all political considerations. His worry over Parliament proceeding with impeachment without fully considering the constitutional framework was a warning that no democratic nation should ignore.

Senator Omtatah’s argument serves as a true measure of leadership, one grounded in principle rather than expediency. His defense of constitutionalism is a reminder that laws are not meant to be bent to fit political interests but to safeguard the integrity of governance. In standing firm against the potential undermining of the Constitution, he demonstrated the courage, clarity, and commitment that any citizen of Kenya can take pride in.

In these times, when political maneuvering often overshadows reason, Hon. Senator Omtatah stands out as a leader who is willing to speak truth to power. His actions echo the values of accountability and justice that the Constitution enshrines, and for that, he has earned the admiration and respect of not only his constituents in Busia but all Kenyans. It is through such leaders that the nation can hope to safeguard its democratic principles for generations to come.

Wake-Up Call to Kenyans: Remember the Roots of a Falling Brother, and Hold Leaders Accountable

Fellow Kenyans, today more than ever, we must wake up to the realities that face us as a nation. We must understand the importance of standing together, recognizing that the failure of one of our own is a reflection of the failure of the entire society. In a community where brothers and sisters fall and no one comes to their aid, the fabric that holds us together begins to tear apart. When we abandon the vulnerable, when we allow corruption and betrayal to erode our social structures, we fail not just as individuals, but as a nation. A falling brother is not just a person struggling; it is a symbol of the weakness in our system, the failure of our society to care for its own. When a member of our community falls into despair, poverty, or hopelessness, we must remember that the root of their fall lies within us all. Their failure is a mirror reflecting the cracks in our values, in our governance, in our responsibilities. As the African proverb goes, “It takes a v
