Gloria Orwoba Apologises As Senate Orders Her 3-Month Suspension
Orwoba admitted that she had learned from her experience and promised to be a better person when she returned.

Nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba has called upon her Senate colleagues to forgive her as she begins her suspension from the House.
As she left the Senate after Deputy Speaker Murungi Kathuri communicated on implementing the resolution regarding the Committee of Powers and Privileges' report on her conduct, Orwoba admitted that she had learned from her experience and promised to be a better person when she returned.
“I offer my apologies to the members of this House and the Members of Staff who I might have offended as I pursued oversight and legislation.
“Truly from the bottom of my heart and as you can see I have learnt how to present and represent people better. It is a learning curve, I own up to my actions and therefore as I proceed to my suspension I do hope that those who I have offended will find it in their hearts to forgive. It was not my intention to make it seem like I'm trying to ridicule this Upper House,” she stated.

“The 79 Callender days that were to be applied in the year 2023 will therefore run from today Wednesday, February 12, 2025, to Thursday, May 1, 2025,” ruled Murungi.
