Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua was notably absent from a landmark court ruling on his impeachment, which he watched from home with other politicians.

• The ruling was delivered nearly 20 months after Gachagua became the first deputy president in Kenya's history to be removed through impeachment.
• Key individuals involved include former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, his legal representative Harrison Kinyanjui, and the petitioning lawyer Enock Aura.
• The impeachment stemmed from charges including gross violation of the constitution, alleged commission of crimes, and gross misconduct, with a significant accusation of acquiring unexplained wealth amounting to Sh5.2 billion within two years.
