Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has fallen ill just minutes before he was set to take the stand as a key witness, according to his lawyer, Paul Muite.
“First and foremost, I want to express our apologies and regret that the Deputy President is not present. He has taken ill, very ill, and as I address this House, he is in the hospital,” Muite stated.
“I have just received this information; my proposal is that you give me the rest of the day to assess the situation and maybe come back at 5 pm. At least give me an hour or two so that I can see the Deputy President and talk to the doctor,” added Muite.
