Gachagua Banks on Judiciary to Uphold Will of the People

1 min read

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagu is having faith on the Judiciary to fairly prosecute his impeachment motion.

Speaking during a church service on Sunday in Embu, DP Gachagua expressed confidence that the matter will be handled impartially as it faces the scrutiny of the Chief Justice Martha Koome-led arm of government.

He reiterated that the “will of the people” should be respected and Kenyans are the only ones who should back his ouster plan.

“Our Judiciary is very professional and I have no doubt that our eminent judges will protect and uphold the constitution and always make sure that the will of the people is sovereign,” he said.

“The will of the people should be respected because they vote every five years and it is good to respect their choices.”

He however urged Kenyans to maintain calm despite the outcome of the impeachment case.

This comes after the High Court on Friday issued orders allowing the petition challenging Gachagua’s impeachment to be forwarded to CJ Koome, who will empanel a three-judge bench to determine the case.

High Court judge Lawrence Mugambi noted that the case warrants the attention of CJ Koome as it is a matter of great public interest.
