President William Ruto has maintained studious silence in the wake of impeachment woes facing his deputy, Rigathi Gachagua.

Appearing in public for the second time yesterday since the process of kicking out the DP begun more than a week ago, Ruto steered clear of the talk amidst heightened calls for his intervention to put the matter to rest.

Ruto attended a church service at Nairobi’s AIC Milimani, where he instead, assured that there will be no compromise on the freedom to worship in the country.

The debate to impeach Gachagua gained momentum while the president was in the United States for the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) meeting and even upon his return, Ruto has not uttered a word on the subject, which is uncharacteristic of his renowned strong viewpoints on issues affecting the country.
