Rigathi Gachagua has written history as the first deputy president of the Republic of Kenya to be impeached.
The former Mathira MP also holds the record of having served the shortest period as DP under the 2010 constitution. Here is a look at how the former second-most powerful man fell from grace and favour with his boss.
When he took that oath of office two years ago before a packed stadium at Kasarani, Rigathi cut the image of a man eager, almost impatient, to ascend to the second-highest office in the land. He had risen, nearly meteorically, from a businessman and one-term MP to deputy president.
Just as fast as he had ascended to the presidency, he was kicked out in a process that took all of three weeks.
Here's our executive producer, Enock Sikolia with the documentary: SAVAGE KINGDOM and president William Ruto's role in the rise and fall of Gachagua.
