Senator Orwoba commences suspension after parliamentary misconduct ruling

Nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba has begun her three-month suspension from Parliament, following disciplinary action for violating the Parliamentary code of conduct. The suspension, which runs from February 12 to May 1, 2025, was enforced after the Senate determined she had engaged in misconduct.

The decision follows a High Court ruling granting the Senate the authority to proceed with disciplinary measures against Orwoba after she repeatedly failed to appear for summons. The summons were related to harassment allegations she had lodged against the Senate.

Court documents reveal that Orwoba had accused Senate officials of discrimination, claiming she was denied travel opportunities that were granted to other legislators. However, Senate representatives countered, arguing that she had violated the institution’s code of conduct and made unsubstantiated claims within official communication channels, including a Senate Business WhatsApp group and her personal WhatsApp status.

The disciplinary process dates back to August 2023, when Orwoba was invited to appear before a Parliamentary Committee to discuss the accusations. However, she refused to participate, citing bias and prejudice before walking out of the session. In his ruling, Judge Lawrence Mugambi noted that her deliberate absence from proceedings had weakened her case, paving the way for the Senate to impose disciplinary action.

Addressing the matter in Parliament on Wednesday, Orwoba issued a public apology for her conduct. “I hope those I have offended will find in their hearts to forgive me,” she stated.

The suspension bars her from attending House sittings and parliamentary activities, marking a significant moment in the Senate’s efforts to uphold institutional discipline and accountability.
