Tuesday, October 8, 2024 – President William Ruto has not seen the last of his Deputy, Rigathi Gachagua.
This is after the DP vowed never
to resign in light of his looming impeachment, saying he would fight him to the
bitter end.
Addressing the nation from his
Karen residence yesterday, Gachagua insisted that he would not resign from his
position given the 'frivolous' charges leveled against him.
"I have heard people saying
I was planning to resign. I have no intention whatsoever to resign from this
job. I will fight to the end," Gachagua said.
He said the resignation is out
of the question as he greatly respects the country’s judicial system and judges
to entertain the idea of voluntarily opting out of office over outrageous
accusations.
“The impeachment of a deputy
president elected by 7.2 million people is not a small matter that can hastily
be decided by a few members of Parliament and senators and wash it away.”
"I will submit myself to
independent institutions to get justice, and I’m sure, I have no doubt in my
mind that I will get justice,” Gachagua emphasised.
Gachagua said a few people have
been sending his friends to persuade him to take the easier route of
resigning, but he declined.
