A three-judge bench on Wednesday declined to issue conservatory orders to halt the impeachment trial of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua in the Senate. Judges Erick Ogolla, Antony Mrima, and Frida Mugambi ruled that Gachagua would not suffer any undue prejudice if the Senate proceeded with the impeachment motion.
The judges explained that while they would not grant the orders to stop the process, Gachagua still had the option to challenge the outcome in court if the need arose. This decision means the impeachment trial will continue as scheduled, and Gachagua can pursue legal recourse afterward if necessary.
