Tuesday, January 28, 2025 - Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has accused his former boss, President Ruto of being a thief of public funds, claiming he shows no mercy with taxpayers' money.
Speaking on Monday during the launch of the Democratic Action Party (DAP) office, Gachagua cited the ongoing housing project as one of many Kenya Kwanza Alliance initiatives designed to siphon taxpayers’ money.
He said the housing project is owned by Ruto
and his cronies who pocket billions by selling cement, metal, and roofing
sheets.
“We initially believed the President that the
project was about job creation, you know, a lot of English and talk,” Gachagua
said.
“Until it came to my attention that it has nothing to do with that; it is a business.
"If you want to
construct the houses, you have to sign a sub-contract from the Housing
Principal Secretary with the company to sell you cement, metal, and roofing
sheets.”

The big four agendas for the previous government were not achieved; government is doing what was to be done five years ago. Gachagua need to reevaluate his push against it.
ReplyDeleteOne of the biggest problems in Kenya is housing. Tax is the most fair equalizer. The drumming against development is defying logic, and half of us don't like what Gachagua is doing.
Ideally, without corruption, this government is on the right track.
No one likes the show of luxurious living displayed by a few MPs and CSs. They need right taming.
The big four agenda items are:
1. Food Security
2. Affordable Housing
3. Manufacturing
4. Affordable Healthcare
So you mean all employed pple being deducted house levy will have the houses?Answer is simply no.
