The question of whether former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua can contest public office in future elections has sparked online debate following a High Court ruling upholding his impeachment.
While the court affirmed the legality of his removal from office, legal experts argue that the ruling does not automatically lock him out of elective politics.
Law Society of Kenya (LSK) President and lawyer Charles Kanjama says Gachagua remains eligible to seek public office and was legally viable even before the High Court delivered its judgment on Monday, June 8.
