The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party has announced that the party's National Executive Committee (NEC) is awaiting the court's decision to suspend Gachagua and appoint Kithure Kindiki, who has been nominated as the next Deputy President.

Speaking to the press on Tuesday, UDA Secretary General Hassan Omar said that Gachagua should forfeit his court battles and accept his fate.

"Once the process in the courts has been concluded, we will sit down as a party and we make sure that we replace the Deputy Party leader with the new one," he said.

Further, Omar said that Gachagua should opt to settle his political scores off the court.

"If he wants to go and regroup himself and re-organise politically we wish him all the best but let us move on," he noted.

President William Ruto nominated Kindiki on October 18 after the Senate impeached Gachagua.

Gachagua's legal team has argued that the ouster process was marred with ill intent particularly after the Senate decided while the embattled second-in-command was hospitalized.

The impeached Gachagua still maintains that he is the rightful Deputy President and will fight tooth and nail to stay in office.
