Friday, January 9, 2026 - Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua was attacked on his way to Kagio in Kirinyaga County, as suspected goons, reportedly under police escort, blocked and unleashed terror on his motorcade.
A video shared online shows police officers deploying
teargas to disperse men who were throwing stones at the convoy.
Eyewitnesses claim that the attackers appeared to
be state-sponsored, targeting Gachagua as part of a coordinated attempt to
intimidate him.
The incident comes just a day after Gachagua publicly accused the Government of deploying goons to intimidate locals in Nyeri town during his meet-and-greet tour.
