Embakasi Central MP Mejja Donk has claimed that allies of Deputy President William Ruto are ready to deal with any impeachment motion against him
The MP said they will not be cowed into submission by impeachment threats by MPs whom he said are trying to undermine the DP.
''We are telling them, bring it on, we will deal with it,'' the MP said in Maragua on Saturday.
During a fundraiser hosted by area MP Mary Wa Maua, Donk said they will no longer entertain threats directed at the DP and his troops.
He condemned a section of MPs and leaders from Northern Kenya who have threatened to initiate Gachagua's removal from office.
Donk said it was unfortunate that the same leaders have previously attacked Gachagua's efforts to unite Mount Kenya yet they have not come to rebuke the MPs who defend the country's spymaster Noordin Haji.
''We want those claiming that we are preaching tribalism to also rebuke the Northern Kenya leaders,'' he said.

At the same time, Donk took a swipe at a senior state officer for attacking Gachagua saying the officer is eyeing to deputise President William Ruto in 2027.
"There are some ministers traversing this area and their work is absolute abuses and insults, I am sending a message to those cabinet secretaries, that even if you have an appetite for the DP office, it is not vacant at the moment,'' he said.
The MP asked Gachagua to bring up the matter of being disrespected at the Cabinet when they meet next saying it was unfortunate that juniours are undermining their boss.
''When you go to the cabinet please talk and address this issue, those who want that seat, let them wait for 2027 and look for those whom they can deputise,'' he said.
Addressing the press in Nairobi, Northern Kenya leaders expressed their dissatisfaction with the remarks noting leveling accusations against him in the press is not only reckless but also unfortunate.
According to the leaders, Gachagua has an opportunity to raise the matter in the security committee which he is part of instead of making the matter public.
“The DP’s actions in discussing sensitive civil servants such as the Director General of the NIS in the press instead of taking his concerns to the National Security Committee in which both of them sit, are reckless and unfortunate,” they said.
