The Senate is set to begin the impeachment hearing of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua today, October 16, 2024, in a plenary session. The proceedings are scheduled to unfold over two days, with a detailed timetable outlining how the events will progress.

On the first day, the Senate will hold a closed-door pre-hearing meeting from 9 AM to 10 AM. During this session, senators will review their mandate, the Rules of Procedure, and the Hearing Programme to ensure all parties are prepared for the process ahead.

At 10 AM, members of the National Assembly involved in the case, along with their legal counsel, will be introduced. Following this, at 10:30 AM, Deputy President Gachagua and his legal team will also be formally presented to the Senate.

The charges against Gachagua will be read between 11 AM and 11:30 AM. Following this, the National Assembly will present its opening statement, after which Gachagua’s defense team will take the floor. Each side will have 30 minutes to present their case.
