Kenya’s Deputy President Impeached for Alleged Corruption and Undermining Government, Politics News Reports


The Kenyan Senate has made history by voting to oust Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua in a historic impeachment vote, finding him guilty on five out of 11 charges, including corruption and money laundering. Gachagua, who was too ill to attend proceedings, is the first deputy president to be removed in this manner since the introduction of impeachment in Kenya’s constitution. Despite requests to delay the vote due to his illness, the Senate proceeded with the proceedings. The impeachment process has caused controversy, with many viewing it as politically motivated and a distraction from other issues in the country. The hearings have delved into Gachagua’s finances and have the potential to impact President Ruto as well. Gachagua has denied the allegations against him and has called the impeachment process a political lynching. President Ruto, who has had a falling out with Gachagua, has not commented on the proceedings. The events surrounding the impeachment have raised questions about the political landscape in Kenya and the potential consequences for those in power.
