This Government Belongs To Mt Kenya Residents – Gachagua Tells Ruto To His Face

Sunday, January 8, 2023-Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has maintained that Mt Kenya residents are the major shareholders of the Kenya Kwanza Alliance government since they stuck with President William Ruto while other communities were supporting former President Uhuru Kenyatta and his handshake brother Raila Odinga.

Speaking in Nanyuki during interdenominational prayers organised by local clergy on Sunday, Gachagua first thanked Mt Kenya residents for coming out in huge numbers and supporting Ruto’s presidential bid during the August 9th, 2022 presidential election.

Gachagua said while other communities were obsessed with the handshake, the Mt Kenya electorate stuck with Ruto because they considered him as their son.

“’Hii Serikali Tulioyanjenga Ni Ya Watu Wa Milima Kenya. Wao Ndio Walisimama Na Ruto Wakati Watu Wengine Walimtoroka Wakaenda Handshake. Kwa Sasa Mtazidi Kupwefa Nafasi Kwa Hii Serikali Kwa Kuwa Mlifanya Kazi Si Kama Hao Wengine,"Gachagua said.

Gachagua also asked President Ruto who was in attendance to continue giving the people of Mount Kenya more opportunities in his administration saying that the region worked hard for the formation of this government and should not just be ignored the way others are saying.

"I want to call upon president Ruto to continue giving you people more opportunities in his government because you deserve even much better," he said.
