Mount Kenya Will Not Be Silent-Gachagua to Ruto
Gachagua vowed to lead mass protests if Koome is removed. He questioned why the president was allegedly targeting leaders from the region that overwhelmingly supported his election.
“This is too much now. How do you purge the leadership of an entire community that made you president? If Koome is dismissed and I call for protests, will you come out? We are not going to sit again as Ruto destroys the leadership of Mount Kenya,” he declared.
Gachagua told voters to punish any leader supporting Ruto by voting them out in the next election. He insisted that Mt. Kenya must stand together to protect its interests.
“Anyone supporting this injustice should not expect our votes. We must defend our region from betrayal,” he told the crowd.

Former Law Society of Kenya (LSK) president Nelson Havi accused Koome’s bench of gross misconduct. His petition also called for the removal of High Court judges Alfred Mabeya and Lucas Naikuni over alleged misbehavior.
Another petition, filed by Edwin Dande of Cytonn Investment, also accused Mabeya of misconduct. The JSC stated that all petitions would be reviewed before making a final decision.
