The anticipated public participation to impeach Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua turned chaotic in Nanyuki as residents expressed divided opinions.

The hundreds of residents who had flocked the Nanyuki CDF hall on Friday began chanting and disrupting the meeting which had kicked off well.

A section were calling for the removal of the Gachagua and while on the other hand others held placards in support of the second in command.

By the time of airing this news no local leaders had arrived in the scene where the security was beefed up.

Gachagua is accused of gross violation of the constitution including undermining national unity through inciteful public utterances, amassing property estimated at Sh5.2 billion that is not compatible with his known legitimate income among other allegations.

The motion to impeach the second in command was tabled in the National assembly on Tuesday by Kibwezi West Member of Parliament, Mutuse Mwengi.
