“Someone thinks bringing a tribal card against The DP and leaders of Mt Kenya will diffuse the rot in the Kenya Kwanza Government as highlighted by the protestors.
“Presenting an impeachment agenda against the DP Rigathi Gachagua is a decoy to shift the attention from allegations of massive corruption and open inefficiency on various issues flagged by Kenyans,” said Wamumchomba.
The UDA MP went on to say that the MPs supporting DP Rigathi Gachagua may be outnumbered by their colleagues but they have the support of Kenyans.

“For now, those drafting the impeachment and whipping MPs alert us when you are ready for the monkey dance,” she stated.
At the same time, Wamuchomba claimed that there was a plot to discipline Kenya Kwanza MPs who rejected the controversial Finance Bill 2024.
“Accusing us of opposing government on taxation on matters Avocado via KRA eTIMS deductions is a fallacy. Any sober MP will defend voters against such punitive taxes. Even in the future, such bills will face resistance,” Wamuchomba added.
The Githunguri MP’s remarks come after reports emerged that there was a plot to impeach DP Gachagua on grounds of gross violation of the constitution and gross misconduct.
