Maraga Unleashes Scathing Demand for President Ruto’s Ouster in Explosive National Call.

Kenya’s former Chief Justice David Maraga has delivered a powerful and unprecedented call for the removal of President William Ruto, warning that the country is heading down a dangerous authoritarian path unless immediate action is taken.

In a fiery public statement that has sent shockwaves across the political landscape, Maraga outlined a meticulously crafted four-step strategy designed to force President Ruto out of office. The former judiciary head did not mince words, branding the Ruto administration as a direct threat to democratic stability and civic freedoms.

“The current regime has shown complete disregard for the Constitution, the rule of law, and the suffering of Kenyans,” Maraga declared. “Citizens must now act decisively to reclaim their nation.”

An Urgent Blueprint for Removal

Maraga’s four-point roadmap is a direct response to what he terms a “collapse of institutional integrity.” His plan calls for:

  1. Judicial Redress: Legal petitions aimed at challenging President Ruto’s eligibility to continue serving based on alleged constitutional violations.
  2. Parliamentary Impeachment: Lobbying Members of Parliament to begin formal impeachment proceedings anchored on misconduct and abuse of office.
  3. Grassroots Mobilization: Organizing civic petitions and voter awareness drives to strengthen public rejection of the administration.
  4. Non-Violent Mass Action: Calling on Kenyans, particularly the youth, to take to the streets in sustained, peaceful protests until the government is held accountable.

Maraga’s Rallying Cry to the Youth

The former CJ hailed the recent youth-led demonstrations as a critical turning point in Kenya’s political awakening. He praised the courage of young protestors who have taken to the streets against perceived government overreach, economic oppression, and the controversial Finance Bill.

“Young people have shown the rest of the country what it means to stand up against tyranny,” he said. “If the formal structures of power have failed us, then it is the people who must become the last line of defense for the Constitution.”

Silence from State House as Pressure Mounts

State House has remained silent on Maraga’s blistering statement. However, insiders suggest growing unease within government circles as calls for impeachment grow louder. The Ministry of Interior has warned against public disorder, while President Ruto, in earlier remarks, vowed not to yield to what he called “mob pressure.”

Sources within Parliament indicate that sections of the opposition are already studying Maraga’s proposal with the possibility of triggering formal impeachment procedures.

The Nation on Edge

Tensions are rising as Kenya faces what could be a defining political showdown. Public anger continues to simmer, fueled by rising living costs, tax hikes, and what many see as a failure by President Ruto’s administration to deliver on promises.

Civil rights groups have echoed Maraga’s concerns, citing increasing police brutality during protests and the growing criminalization of dissent.

A Historic Challenge to Presidential Power

This is the first time a former Chief Justice has directly called for the removal of a sitting president in Kenya’s history. The move could galvanize new legal and political efforts aimed at resetting the country’s democratic trajectory.

Observers warn that the situation remains fluid and could escalate if the government fails to respond to mounting civic pressure.

As Kenyans await the next chapter in this unfolding national drama, one thing is clear—Maraga’s explosive intervention has cracked open the door to what may become one of the most consequential constitutional crises in modern Kenya.
