The impeachment hearing for former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has been postponed to December 16, 2025, by a three-judge bench. This decision stems from ongoing appeals concerning the legality of the bench and the authority of Deputy Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu to empanel it.

• The postponement allows for the determination of Gachagua’s appeal challenging the high court's jurisdiction.
• The case involves Gachagua’s impeachment in October 2024 by the Senate following charges of corruption and misconduct.
• Gachagua maintains the impeachment was politically motivated and procedurally irregular, lacking sufficient public participation.
