Senate to hear DP Gachagua impeachment in plenary next week

Senators will hear the impeachment motion against Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua through the plenary for two days next week.

This is after the leader of the minority failed to support the establishment of a special committee of 11 members to investigate the charges.

Speaker Amason Kingi has assured Kenyans of the Senate’s fair trial. Gachagua legal team is scheduled to respond to the charges on Monday before the hearing commences on Wednesday for two days with a possibility of extending to Friday.

“This impeachment is unique and unprecedented. This is yet another opportunity for the Senate to demonstrate its fidelity to the Constitution and to live up to its reputation” he said in his communication.
