On Tuesday, the Serious Crimes Unit of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) questioned three senior aides of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua over their alleged involvement in sponsoring goons during the anti-government protests. The questioning took place at the deputy president\u2019s residence in Karen.<\/p>\n
Former Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu, who now serves as a political advisor to the Deputy President, and former Embakasi West MP Eric Theuri, currently the youth advisor, were among those who recorded statements. Munene wa Mumbi, the private secretary to the Deputy President, also provided a statement.<\/p>\n
The DCI is investigating the violent protests and looting that occurred in Nairobi, Central Kenya, and other parts of the country.<\/p>\n
The Serious Crimes Unit (SCU) at the DCI headquarters on Kiambu Road has summoned additional allies of Deputy President Gachagua for questioning, including Embakasi North MP James Gakuya and Embakasi Central MP Mejja Donk. Both are suspected of being involved in the infiltration of goons during the Gen-Z protests.<\/p>\n
Further investigations are underway, with additional MPs and a former governor reportedly under scrutiny. These individuals are expected to provide statements related to the unprecedented invasion of Parliament.<\/p>\n
Police handling the case noted that there is currently scant evidence linking the individuals to the alleged activities. They are seeking more information on the roles these individuals played in the unrest.<\/p>\n
The investigative teams have been relying on intelligence, which they have deemed not yet actionable.<\/p>\n
DP Gachagua Impeachment Scheme<\/strong><\/h5>\nThe investigation into officials in Gachagua\u2019s office follows growing reports of a looming impeachment of the deputy president.<\/p>\n
What began as mere rumors last month has now escalated into serious reports suggesting that a faction of MPs and a Cabinet Secretary nominee are orchestrating Gachagua\u2019s impeachment.<\/p>\n
According to reports, a high-stakes meeting on Saturday night, attended by 21 MPs and a Cabinet Secretary nominee, decided to move forward with the ouster motion against Gachagua.<\/p>\n
The attendees, mostly from the Mt Kenya region, criticized Gachagua for allegedly undermining President Ruto and promoting a divisive ethnic narrative. The Cabinet Secretary nominee reportedly claimed that President Ruto was frustrated with Gachagua\u2019s behavior, which included making unreasonable demands for government appointments that favored his community.<\/p>\n
\u201cDeputy President Gachagua\u2019s actions have harmed the unity of our government. His divisive tribal narratives and constant demands for government positions for his community have undermined President Ruto\u2019s leadership,<\/em>\u201d said an MP who attended the meeting.<\/p>\n\u2018Holding Ruto Hostage\u2019<\/strong><\/h5>\nThe accusations against Gachagua include claims of blackmail and holding the President hostage by insisting on key appointments for individuals from the Mt Kenya region. One notable instance cited was Gachagua\u2019s insistence that the former Kenya Revenue Authority Commissioner General Githii Mburu\u2019s position be filled by someone from his region.<\/p>\n
\u201cGachagua\u2019s parochial and tribal approach to governance is unacceptable,\u201d<\/em> declared an MP as quoted by media sources.<\/p>\n\u201cHis opposition to the Finance Bill 2024 and his efforts to persuade pro-government MPs to defy it were blatant acts of insubordination.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\nThe CS nominee reportedly added, \u201cThe President is fed up with Gachagua\u2019s antics. He constantly holds secret meetings with his community, inciting them against paying taxes and opposing government policies.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On Tuesday, the Serious Crimes Unit of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) questioned three senior aides of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua over their alleged involvement in sponsoring goons during the anti-government protests.
