As the countdown to what appears to be Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s political zero game, it appears the former Mathira MP has scaled down all public engagements to gather arsenal for the fight for his life.

The beleaguered Gachagua has not been in public space since Tuesday when 282 MPs approved his impeachment.

The Standard has learnt that he has taken a tactical retreat to build up a case to save his political career and his business empire.

According to his allies, Gachagua will not be attending any public event as he has directed all his efforts to gather materials and evidence to discredit the impeachment motion which, if approved by the Senate, may confine him to obscurity.
