What you need to know:

  • Justice Mwita said courts should be reluctant to take over functions of other arms of government. 
  • The judge, however, said the Deputy President's petition raises substantial questions of law.

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has, yet again, lost a bid to arrest the ongoing impeachment process against him.

The High Court in Nairobi on Tuesday declined to grant Mr Gachagua’s request to stop his impeachment trial in the Senate, set for Wednesday and Thursday.
