Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro claimed he believed staying away from Parliament would prevent the impeachment of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua. Nyoro stated he considered abstaining from the proceedings the best strategy to stop the motion. The impeachment required a two-thirds majority in Parliament. Nyoro’s absence was part of a broader strategy to delay the process. The motion against Gachagua was introduced by opposition lawmakers. Gachagua was removed from office in 2022. Nyoro’s comments came during a parliamentary session. The impeachment process faced legal challenges. The government defended the motion as a legitimate political action. The debate highlights tensions within Kenya’s political landscape. The outcome of the impeachment remains pending.
