3-Judge Bench Pushes Gachagua Case to 2025
Petitions challenging the removal of Gachagua as DP through impeachment to be heard on January 23, 2025
The three-judge bench comprising Justices Eric Ogola, Frida Mugambi, and Anthony Mrima pushed the hearing date to January 23, 2025, in what looks to effectively seal the lid on the Gachagua impeachment fiasco.
“The matter of the hearing of petitions filed challenging the impeachment of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua is fixed for further direction on Thursday, January 23, 2025,” noted Justice Ogola.
This new development comes a day after Gachagua, through his lawyers led by Senior Counsel Paul Muite, withdrew a petition they had filed at the Court of Appeal. The petition had challenged the hearing of his impeachment by the three-judge bench at the High Court.
