Monday, September 23, 2024 - Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has warned President William Ruto against green-lighting his impeachment, saying the people of Mt. Kenya may never forgive him.
Speaking at a church service at
Pentecostal Evangelistic Fellowship of Africa (PEFA) Church in Thika Town,
Kiambu County, Gachagua urged Ruto to shun betrayal politics rocking UDA today.
He particularly asked Ruto to keep
his promise of ensuring his deputy is not humiliated, adding that if he cannot
keep that promise, then he will not be trusted to keep any other.
He therefore challenged the Head
of State to ensure his critics do not humiliate him.
“I would like to ask my boss Ruto
to be cautious and do the right thing and let’s keep our house together. Let us
not be disruptive and let us not re-introduce the politics of betrayal,” he
cautioned.
According to Gachagua, Ruto is the
greatest beneficiary of the people of Mt Kenya’s distaste of betrayal and as
such, he should avoid the politics of betrayal.
Gachagua, seemingly pricked by the
current state of affairs, warned the president that should he take the path of
betrayal politics, there would be consequences.
“Our people hate betrayal and they
are very unforgiving if you betray them. I ask my brother not to be tempted to
go in that direction because these people will be very unforgiving,” Rigathi
Gachagua asserted.
He further reminded the president
that there was an attempt to betray him in the former regime but the people
stood with him to express their displeasure of betrayal.
“I would like to request the president to put his house in order so that we can deliver for the people.
"And
if there is a problem in a home, the father of the homestead can still down and
resolve pressing issues with his family,” he added.
Gachagua also cautioned that
betrayal politics is a threat to the unity of the UDA party.
“I want to caution the direction
that is being taken of dividing our UDA house. If the house collapses it will
not be remade again,” he observed.
