CJ Martha Koome appoints three-judge bench to determine DP Gachagua’s case

Chief Justice Martha Koome has appointed a three-judge bench to hear five petitions challenging the impeachment of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.

The bench comprises Judges Eric Ogolla, Antony Mrima, and Frida Mugambi.

This development follows a recent referral of the case by High Court Judge Lawrence Mugambi to the Chief Justice.

Mr. Gachagua is scheduled to defend himself before the Senate on Tuesday, October 15. Following his defense, the Senate will decide whether the grounds for impeachment are valid or should be dismissed.

In another political development, Kericho Governor Eric Mutai is facing potential removal after the Kericho County Assembly members voted unanimously to initiate his impeachment.
