Monday, September 2, 2024 - Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua expressed his frustration, questioning why some Mt. Kenya leaders are being paid to shame and embarrass him, despite his position as the region's political kingpin.
Speaking in Mukumbune, Meru county on Sunday, Gachagua said in other
regions, leaders are respected but in the Mt Kenya region, they are insulted by
some betrayers paid by their enemies.
"I told our leaders, please be like other communities. I have never heard people of Luo insulting Raila, not a single one.
"I haven't heard even one Kalenjin insulting William Ruto and
I haven't heard even one Kamba insulting Kalonzo," the Deputy
President said.
Gachagua said that it is only in
the Mt Kenya region where a few people get paid to insult their leaders.
He said such people are only
betraying the community, calling on the community to ignore them.
The DP affirmed that the Mt
Kenya region remains stronger when united and any attempts to cause division
will only make the situation worse for them.
"In a population of 13
million, they are less than 10 just ignore. The people are good. Going forward,
I want to assure you that as long as we are united as a region, we are in good
space.
"Don't allow anybody to
divide you along county lines. Our strength is our unity."
