The impeachment motion was unanimously passed by 59 out of 60 MCAs present during the Tuesday afternoon session.
The MCAs accused Likowa of poor management of the county assembly and lack of accountability on the House finance affairs.
Led by Majority Leader Ken Ouma, the MCAs said they have not been paid their committee allowances for a very long time and the Speaker has not been giving any proper reason.
Ouma said the failure of the Speaker to run the county assembly as per the expectation of the MCAs has derailed activities in the House.

He also added that the Speaker has not been looking into the welfare of the MCAs.
Acting Speaker Chacha said they’re going to work together henceforth to address the issues that have been ailing the County Assembly.
