This morning’s conversations on X are dominated by the High Court’s landmark ruling on former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s impeachment, growing debate around NTSA’s automated traffic enforcement system and continued discussions surrounding the Finance Bill 2026.
Kenyans are also engaging in conversations about media literacy, digital public services, international entertainment trends and the ongoing NBA Finals.
Gachagua
Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua is the most discussed political figure this morning after the High Court upheld his impeachment while simultaneously awarding him KSh50 million in constitutional damages.
The court ruled that although the impeachment process was lawful, his right to a fair hearing was violated when the Senate declined to grant a medical adjournment request during the proceedings.
The decision has sparked extensive legal and political debate regarding due process, accountability and the constitutional limits of parliamentary proceedings.
“The Constitution is the grundnorm, and where that grundnorm deliberately and clearly limits the power of the court, that limitation must be respected.” — @StandardKenya
