"Her actions and omissions have caused embarrassment and brought the office of the speaker into disrepute, this assembly resolves to sanction," he said.

Undermining the County Assembly Board

They accused Elachi of taking up functions of the COunty Assembly Board while at the same time subjecting board members to unnecessary suspicion and investigations. 

Conflict of interest

The leaders said that during the purchase of the speaker's house, Elachi interfered, bullied, and intimidated staff so as to get her say.
