The hearing of a case challenging the impeachment of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has resumed before a three-judge High Court bench comprising Justices Eric Ogola, Freda Mugambi, and Anthony Mrima.

Gachagua’s legal team, led by Senior Counsel Paul Muite, argued that the National Assembly failed to conduct meaningful public participation before approving the impeachment motion.
