I don’t like @rigathi’s toxic and petty politics. I’ve disliked it since I found him at the University of Nairobi in 1986 singing “KANU and Moi Juu, Juu Kabisa!”
But as a man who is fully committed to fairness, justice and the rule of law, I believe that the Court’s ruling today was predetermined, is legally unsound and factually faulty. It should be overturned on appeal.
The impeachment of Gachagua was not conducted fairly, was unjustly rushed and was motivated by parochial personal differences with @WilliamsRuto. The court ought to have nullified it.
I said it in 2024 when Rigathi Gachagua was impeached by the Senate. The High Court agreed with me today that indeed he was denied a fair trial. A decision that infringe on a litigant's non derogable rights like the right to a fair trial under Article 25(c) can't stand in law.
