Gachagua Vows to Appeal Court Ruling Upholding His Impeachment

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua plans to appeal to the Court of Appeal after a High Court decision upheld his impeachment by the Senate, which he has labeled a "constitutional coup." The Senate is set to appeal a separate High Court ruling that awarded Sh50 million to Gachagua for infringement of his right to a fair trial. Opposition leaders and lawyers are challenging the impeachment verdict, with ODM Party leader Oburu Odinga dismissing Gachagua's medical explanation as an afterthought that should not justify compensation. Meanwhile, Speaker Amason Kingi has defended the Senate's impeachment proceedings, asserting the process was conducted properly despite the High Court findings. The court ruling is expected to significantly influence Kenyan opposition politics ahead of the next election.
