Did I read right that there may be a public participation exercise afoot as concerns Gachagua’s impending impeachment?
If this is true, Gachagua’s jaw must be on the floor and his heart throbbing and soaring right up there with the eagles

It is dead easy to nitpick procedural and substantial blunders on a public participation exercise.
Hats off to Riggy G. He has played Jambazi and the system.
Oh heck. Gachagua is the 6th Wadau till 2042.

A section of Members of Parliament from the Mt Kenya region, who initially supported the motion to impeach Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua from office, have now changed their stance.

MPs Geoffrey Wandeto from Tetu, Rahab Mukami from Nyeri, and Njoroge Wainaina from Kieni have stated that they will not continue with efforts to oust DP Gachagua.
"After soul-searching and reading through the motion I realised this is something our deputy president and the President sit down and resolve because Kenya is bigger than all of us. I have listened to the ground and the people of Nyeri have said they do not want the deputy president removed," said Rahab Mukami.

"When we ask our people, they are saying they do not see this (impeachment) as a priority, they think we should be focusing on other priorities. As representatives of the people it behoves upon us to listen to our people and do what they have asked us. So on Tuesday, I will be voting NO," added Geoffrey Wandeto.

The u-turn by the MPs comes one day after their names were mentioned in Parliament, as they were among the MPs who signed and endorsed the motion to eject Gachagua from office.
These legislators, hailing from Gachagua's stronghold in Nyeri County, instead expressed that what is needed now is a discussion aimed at reconciling the President and his Deputy.
"Our deputy president please, go to the President and ask for forgiveness. And for our President, please sit down with our deputy, speak and reach an agreement," added MP Mukami
Other MPs from the Deputy President's stronghold who still support this motion include Eric Wamumbi from Mathira, Wambugu Wainaina from Othaya, and Duncan Mathenge from Nyeri Town.

Additionally, the Woman Representative for Embu, Pamela Njoki, has also indicated a change of heart. In an official letter, Njoki stated that she signed the motion but has withdrawn her support after discussions with the residents of Embu.
 
Tukunia seeing fire on the ground

This impeachment motion will be withdrawn before Tuesday, perhaps as early as today, "to give yUDA Party internal dispute a chance".
