Gachagua's impeachment verdict: The absurd judgment pitting lawyers against Judiciary

The High Court recently delivered a verdict on the impeachment of Rigathi Gachagua, a decision that has drawn significant criticism from legal professionals. The court upheld the impeachment proceedings against Gachagua while simultaneously awarding him Sh50 million. This award was reportedly for a violation of his right to a fair hearing during the impeachment process.

The contradictory ruling raises questions about the integrity and consistency of judicial processes in high-profile political cases.
