Lawyers for respondents in the former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's impeachment proceedings are asking the High Court to strike out a supplementary affidavit. They argue the affidavit, which includes allegations about President William Ruto making a call to a hospital, was improperly introduced and contains unproven claims.

• The affidavit alleges a phone call from President William Ruto inquiring about Gachagua's health.
• The respondents cite that the affidavit was filed without court permission and introduces new matters not presented during Senate impeachment hearings.
• The High Court is expected to rule on the admissibility of the affidavit as the impeachment dispute continues.
