Kenyan MPs are due to vote on whether to impeach Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua in a political row that has gripped the nation, following his recent fallout with President William Ruto.
The lawmakers accuse Gachagua of corruption, practising ethnically divisive politics and undermining the government, among a host of other charges.
The 59-year-old politician, popularly known as “Riggy G”, has described the allegations against him as "outrageous" and "sheer propaganda", maintaining they are part of a plot to hound him out of office.
He is expected to appear before parliament to defend himself before the vote, after which impeachment proceedings will move to the Senate.
