National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah has dismissed claims by Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua of an impeachment plot, calling it a tactic to gain sympathy.

Speaking on Saturday at the burial of his family friend and former employee, George Owiro, in Pap Nyadiel village, Alego Usonga Constituency, Ichung’wah criticized Gachagua’s remarks as an attempt to incite residents of the Mt. Kenya region against their Members of Parliament.

The Kikuyu MP further cautioned Kenyans about the DP’s intentions, warning that such statements could be aimed at creating political instability if things do not go his way.

“If you listened to him, he passed a veiled threat to Kenyans, saying that an impeachment motion would cause political instability, or rather he framed it’s about stability of the nation. What he meant, is that he is trying to threaten that should there be one, there will be political instability.”

“As a Leader of Majority, I can tell you there has never been an impeachment plan against him. That has been a creation of those that he walks around with. It’s a sympathy seeking gimmick to try and incite people from the Mt. Kenya region against MPs,” Ichung’wah said.

“No MP has ever proposed, even to collect signatures. It’s only the DP who’s been speaking about his impeachment. Probably, he’s calling for it or he might imagine that he can incite one region of the country against the MPs. I’ve put my chest forward to defend the MPs,” he noted.

Ichung’wah emphasized that the Deputy President should focus on promoting the government’s agenda during media engagements, rather than airing personal grievances.

“What I would have expected the DP to be doing now, even last week I challenged him that in the last two years he has never addressed national issues on the media stations. How I wish he would spend time on people centric issues instead of selfish and parochial things as he has engaged us in,” he noted.
