The Senate is preparing to hear the impeachment motion against Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua later this week.
With the hearing scheduled just days away, the National Assembly has taken steps in accordance with its standing orders, nominating several key MPs to make representations on its behalf.
The move follows days of intense debate and speculation over the Deputy Presidentโs political future.
Mutuse, along with other MPs, will present their case before a special committee in the Senate, as allowed under Senate Standing Orders Section 73, Sub-section 5.
As the Senateโs special committee gears up for the hearing, political analysts are closely watching the developments.
The outcome could potentially lead to the removal of the Deputy President from office, making this one of the most significant political events in recent Kenyan history.
