Kenya Senate Votes to Impeach Deputy President Gachagua

The Kenyan Senate has voted to oust Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua in a historic impeachment vote.

The Senate only had to find him guilty of one charge to remove the 59-year-old from office, but voted to impeach on five charges out of a total of 11 against him, after two days of hearings.

The 11 charges — which Gachagua had vigorously denied — included corruption, insubordination, money-laundering, undermining the government, practising ethnically divisive politics, bullying public officers and threatening a judge. 

He is the first deputy president to be ousted in this manner since impeachment was introduced in Kenya’s revised 2010 constitution.
