Kenya's High Court has ruled that the Senate can proceed with debating the impeachment of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua. This comes after Gachagua's legal team attempted to halt the process following a parliamentary vote to remove him from office. The court's decision paves the way for the Senate to discuss the charges against him, which could lead to his removal from office. Prominent lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi has advised Gachagua to resign before the Senate debate intensifies. The political future of Kenya's deputy president now hangs in the balance as the impeachment process moves forward.
It’s a shame to see political infighting take center stage while Kenya is facing so many real issues that need attention. Instead of pushing for impeachment, the focus should be on stability and leadership that doesn’t get bogged down by political theatrics. This kind of power struggle can easily distract from what’s best for the country.

This is exactly why we need strong leadership that focuses on stability rather than endless debates and legal battles. If the deputy president has done something wrong, it should be dealt with swiftly to keep the country moving forward, not dragged out in messy political games.

It's good to see the rule of law upheld—leaders need to be held accountable, and it's important that Kenya's institutions are allowed to function without interference.
