Governor Abdi Ibrahim Hassan Guyo has survived an impeachment attempt after the Senate ruled that the Isiolo County Assembly did not follow proper procedure during its sittings.  

Senate Speaker Amason Kingi announced the decision on Tuesday, July 8, stating that the impeachment motion against Guyo was procedurally flawed.

"The Senate finds that the County Assembly of Isiolo did not appropriately hold sittings on the 18th of June 2025, and 26th of June 2025, to table, debate, and pass a vote on the motion for the proposed removal from office by impeachment of the Governor of Isiolo County, Hon. Abdi Hassan.

"The impeachment proceedings terminate forthwith. As a result, Hon. Abdi Ibrahim Hassan retains his seat as the Governor of Isiolo County," he said.

Following the announcement, Guyo welcomed the Senate's decision, calling it a victory for truth, justice, and the people of Isiolo.

"The Senate has today reaffirmed what we have consistently maintained: that the purported impeachment was procedurally flawed, legally unsound, and entirely without merit.

"This resolution is not only a personal vindication but a powerful statement in defence of truth, justice, and the sovereign will of the people of Isiolo," he said.

With the Senate’s verdict now delivered, Guyo called for unity and a renewed focus on development.

"To my family, friends, and all supporters, your prayers, steadfast belief, and unwavering commitment have been our greatest strength. This victory belongs to all of us. With this chapter behind us, we now refocus our energy on what truly matters: driving meaningful development, fostering unity, and fulfilling our shared vision of a thriving Isiolo.

"The journey ahead continues with greater resolve, renewed purpose, and an unshakable commitment to serve with integrity and dignity," he added.
