In historic vote, Kenyan Senate impeaches Deputy President Gachagua
Kenya’s Senate voted Thursday to confirm impeachment charges against Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, but the proceedings were halted by the Kenyan High Court while Gachagua was hospitalized with chest pains. The delay will give the impeached Deputy President a chance to appeal the conviction. The court has suspended the process until 24 October after Gachagua’s legal team filed a petition claiming his removal was unfair. VOA’s Esther Githui-Ewart spoke to VOA Nairobi Bureau Chief Mariama Diallo for the latest developments in the impeachment trial.
