Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua addressing a gathering in Machakos town yesterday
By MTK Correspondent

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has asked the people of Ukambani region to unite with the people of central Kenya and form a formidable alliance to remove President William Ruto from office.
The former DP has assured the residents of Ukambani that they will form the next government together with other like minded Kenyans only if they unite under the GEMA banner.
Mr. Gachagua was speaking yesterday during a Church Service at Gospel Confirmation Centre in Machakos Town constituency.
He has also requested the region to unite under the Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka promising to work together with Kalonzo in the 2027 elections.
The former Deputy President noted that the residents of Ukambani have been left behind in terms of development and they have every reason to form the next government.
As usual, Gachagua continued his onslaught on President William Ruto saying that he is desperate to get support from Raila Odinga and can do anything to ensure that he survives under his armpits.
He added that the opposition will continue calling out his unpopular government despite the president’s call that they have no agenda.
On the consultations meetings being held by Deputy President Kithure Kindiki, Gachagua said that the money being distributed in the meetings are proceeds of corruption while asking Kenyans to get their share and not allow themselves to be compromised by the loot.
The former DP however asked the Ukambani residents to register as voters in big numbers to ensure that their numbers count in the next general elections.
He was accompanied by his spouse Pastor Dorcas Rigathi and scores of leaders.
These included MPs John Kaguchia, Jayne Kihara, Wakiri Muriu, John Gakuya, Joe Nyutu, Sammy Wambua, Karungo wa Thangw’a, John Kinyua and Wanjiku Muhia. Also present were former Machskos Town MP Victor Munyaka.
