According to him, successful impeachment of Kenya’s second-in command comes along with a possibility of creating animosity and conflict between the communities around Mt Kenya region and the other communities across the country.

Furthermore, he called upon the senators to consider the current impeachment motion tabled to them with appropriate transparency asking them to only ensure they uphold their constitutional duties as mandated.

“Our major concern is that the way DP Rigathi Gachagua’s impeachment process is shaping up could easily lead to conflicts between the people of Mt Kenya area and the people of the country, this is what we are worried about,” NCIC Chairman Samuel Kobia stated

He has echoed his sentiments when they’re are only few days left for the senators to resume duty Wednesday and Thursday this week, to consider the motion before taking a vote.
