DP Gachagua Breaks Silence on Alleged Impeachment Plans, Alleged Ruto’s Involvement
Deputy President Gachagua Addresses Impeachment Concerns: Clears President Ruto's Name

In a recent address to vernacular radio stations in the Mt Kenya Region, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua tackled the growing concerns surrounding a potential impeachment motion filed against him. Speaking on August 4, Gachagua was swift to absolve President William Ruto of any involvement in the controversy, emphasizing that the President has no part in the impeachment proceedings.
The Impeachment Motion – A Move Against Regional Representation?
Gachagua suggested that the impeachment motion might be linked to his recent efforts to integrate more Mt Kenya leaders into government positions. This move, aimed at promoting regional representation, could be seen as a threat to certain interests. By pushing for a more inclusive government, Gachagua may have inadvertently stirred up opposition from those who feel their power or influence is being challenged.
Support for Local Farmers – A Possible Reason for Unrest?
The Deputy President also cited his work on issues such as avocado farming as a possible reason for the unrest. His efforts to support local farmers and promote agricultural development in the region might have contributed to the ongoing tensions. It appears that Gachagua’s commitment to empowering local communities has not gone unnoticed, and some individuals or groups may be seeking to undermine his progress.
Speculation and Uncertainty
Despite not having seen the motion himself, Gachagua speculated that his push for regional representation and support for local farmers might have contributed to the ongoing tensions. This speculation highlights the uncertainty surrounding the impeachment motion and the motivations behind it. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen what evidence will be presented and how the proceedings will play out.
The recent address by Deputy President Gachagua has shed some light on the growing concerns surrounding the impeachment motion. By clearing President Ruto’s name and highlighting his own efforts to promote regional representation and support local farmers, Gachagua has provided some insight into the possible reasons behind the unrest. As the situation continues to unfold, it is essential to remain vigilant and ensure that the democratic processes are upheld. The people of Kenya will be watching closely as this drama plays out, and it is crucial that the truth is revealed, and justice is served.
