Kiogora will now prosecute the motion within the next seven days' after MCAs voted to alter the Assembly's Calender by moving the adjornment date by two weeks.

The governor is accused of nepotism, illegal appointments, unlawful dismissals, usurpation of constitutional and misleading campaigns against other leaders.

The judge said the MCAs had not followed the right procedure and that Kawira's constitutional rights would have been violated.
