Kenyan lawmakers voted Thursday to remove Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua from office over accusations of gross misconduct irregular

Rigathi Gachagua has pleaded not guilty to all allegations against him including corruption, inciting ethnic divisions and support for anti-government protests that saw demonstrators storm parliament

Political experts warn that if Gachagua is removed from office, it could lead to public outrage and calls for similar action against Ruto — a reawakening of the demands made by citizens during the deadly anti-tax protests that rocked Kenya in June and July.
