Gachagua stable in hospital; more tests underway, says Dr. Gikonyo » Capital News

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua is in stable condition and undergoing tests, according to Dr. Dan Gikonyo, Chief Cardiologist and founder of Karen Hospital.

Dr. Gikonyo revealed that Gachagua was admitted on Thursday at 3:00 PM after experiencing “intense chest pains.”

Gachagua had been scheduled to testify in the Senate for cross-examination during his impeachment trial.

“He is stable at the moment and we are still carrying out more tests to rule out any serious issues,” Gikonyo said.

Dr. Gikonyo stated that stress may be a likely cause of Gachagua’s sudden condition, adding that he will be monitored for three days before being discharged from the hospital.
