Ruto embarrassed as Gladys Shollei discloses he ordered them to impeach Gachagua
Uasin Gishu woman representative Gladys Boss Shollei has explained the reasons behind her push for the impeachment of former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua.
Speaking during the commissioning of AIC Kipkorgot Church in Kapsoya Ward, Ainabkoi Constituency on Sunday, December 22, Shollei revealed that her actions were in line with instructions from President William Ruto.
As she mentioned Gachagua’s name, President Ruto appeared visibly embarrassed, covering his face with one hand while smiling in discomfort.
The congregation also looked astonished and turned their gaze toward the president in surprise.
“Your excellency, as your loyal foot soldier, if you tell me to speak briefly, I will. If you tell me Gachagua should go home, Gachagua will go home. I always follow orders, and I will continue to do so,” Shollei stated, before thanking the congregation for their support in the successful building of the church.

Speaking days before Gachagua’s ouster motion, Shollei stated that it was inevitable, affirming that nobody would touch the president while she was around.
She made it clear that she was in charge and would oversee the process.
Despite the controversy, Gachagua expressed his gratitude towards Shollei for her support during the tenure of former President Uhuru Kenyatta, when he faced multiple arrests.
However, despite Gachagua’s defence of his actions and his insistence on his innocence, the Senate ultimately voted to impeach him due to his controversial tribal remarks, disrespect towards the president, and other issues.
