Sunday, May 26, 2024 - Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has urged senior Rift Valley leaders to stop interfering with the affairs of the Mt Kenya region.
Speaking during fundraising for a women empowerment program in Kesses, Uasin Gishu on Saturday, the DP accused a section of
leaders of scheming to determine who the next leaders would be in Mt Kenya.
But in an apparent warning to the leaders, the DP said their
bid is an exercise in futility as the Mt Kenya politics is more complex than
they think.
“I want to request the Rift Valley leaders to note that we
supported the President willingly because we loved doing so and we will
continue doing so. But we ask for respect; don't dare plan the politics of Mt
Kenya and its leadership".
Gachagua said the Rift Valley leaders should focus on their
region's politics instead of Mt Kenya, adding that they will never contemplate
choosing leaders for the region.
The DP asked the Rift Valley leaders to focus on helping
President William Ruto to deliver on his campaign promises, saying continuous
politicking would make him a failure.
Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi and President William Ruto's aide
Farouk Kibet are among those who are accused of trying to destabilize the
vote-rich Mt Kenya region.
