The High Court has scheduled hearings for over 40 consolidated petitions challenging the impeachment of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, with substantive hearings set for April 2026.

• Hearings will run from April 14 to 18, 2026, and additional dates on May 26, 27, and 28, 2026.
• Gachagua's legal team, led by Senior Counsel Paul Muite, argues the impeachment process was unconstitutional, citing failure to meet the threshold of serious misconduct under Article 145(1).
• Petitions question whether due process was followed by the National Assembly and Senate, and if adequate public participation occurred.
• Gachagua was found guilty on five grounds by the Senate and impeached by the National Assembly with 281 MPs supporting the charges.
