Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's troubles are deepening as more Kenya Kwanza leaders pledge to support his impeachment.
Gladys Boss Shollei, Uasin Gishu's woman representative and deputy speaker of the National Assembly, has made it clear to Gachagua that his removal is inevitable.
Shollei stated she would oversee the impeachment process, asserting that no one will touch President William Ruto while she is around.

"I will personally send you home. Rigathi Gachagua I am putting you on notice today. I want to confirm to you that you will be impeached and I shall be in charge of that impeachment motion. Here at home, they call me an iron lady. No one will touch William Ruto when I am there," she stated.
Her remarks followed comments from Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi, who declared that the decision to impeach Gachagua is final and cannot be undone.
According to the lawmaker, the deputy president has less than two weeks left in office.
Meanwhile, Atheists in Kenya have also called for the deputy president's impeachment.
The community argued that Gachagua's recent comments are stoking tribalism nationwide, driven by self-serving interests that could lead to tensions akin to those seen after the 2007-2008 elections.
Harrison Mumia, the society's president, emphasised that Kenya needs new political parties focused on developmental ideas rather than tribal agendas.
