Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has recently sent a message to President William Ruto few hours after an attack on him during an event in Nyandarua.
Through a statement, Gachagua warned Ruto against actions that undermine the Constitution and cautioned him against disregarding the will of Kenyans.
“To President Ruto, no amount of intimidation or violence will stop the Kenyan people from criticising you, demanding for good governance and accountability, or asking you to respect democracy and the rule of law,” Gachagua noted.
His message to the president came a few hours after an alleged attack during a thanksgiving prayer service at Shamata Ward MCA Gitau Njamba in Nyandarua that led to police using tear gas and firing gunshots.
He was forced to scamper for safety with his envoy when the commotion started.
The event took a wrong turn when Nyandarua Senator John Methu addressed the crowd before a fracas disrupted his speech and a teargas canister was thrown at the dais while he was speaking.
This caused a commotion, with the crowd dispersing in different directions.
Fortunately, the area residents took the initiative to escort the alleged attackers out of the event and Gachagua expressed his gratitude.
