Gachagua: I’m ready for any outcome in my impeachment case.

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has announced his absolute readiness to accept whatever verdict the High Court delivers regarding his controversial ouster. 

Speaking during a Sunday church service in Karen, Nairobi, Gachagua maintained a calm and composed posture just hours before a three-judge bench makes its historic ruling on Monday, June 8, 2026.

The highly anticipated decision will address the constitutionality of his October 2024 impeachment by Parliament, which was executed on 11 counts, including allegations of corruption and promoting ethnic division.

"I ask that you pray for me. I was removed from office against the law. Tomorrow (Monday June 8, 2026), the court will issue its verdict," Gachagua told the congregation.

"We are ready for whatever outcome. If the three judges rule that we were treated unfairly and against the Constitution and lift the impeachment, we shall be grateful to God. We will also be grateful that the justice system in Kenya works.”

Expressing his faith in the legal process, Gachagua added: "I have confidence that our Judiciary is independent, it is impartial and will give justice to Rigathi Gachagua and millions of his supporters across the country." 

"If the ruling goes the other way, it is still okay," Gachagua remarked, signalling that his legal team is already prepared for a multi-tiered battle.

"We will still have an opportunity to go to the Court of Appeal and follow the legal remedies that have been provided by the Constitution."
