Deputy President Gachagua Urges Aspirants to Allow Elected Leaders to Serve
Gachagua stressed the need for unity among leaders. “Let us avoid divisions and bringing other leaders down. Avoid envy. Let us not fight; instead, love and support each other.
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has urged leaders to avoid political distractions and focus on serving the public.
Speaking after Holy Mass at Sacred Heart Endarasha Catholic Church in Kieni Constituency, Nyeri County, Gachagua emphasized the importance of letting elected officials complete their terms without interference.
“Those elected should be allowed to do their work and execute their respective mandates. People should concentrate on their work. Stop discussing other people’s work and allow those in office to work. Those occupying seats should be allowed to work without interference,” he stated.
Gachagua also addressed the government’s commitment to combating illicit brews and drug abuse, thanking President Ruto for supporting the initiative. “The fight against this menace will go on, and we will not relent until the vices are eradicated,” he affirmed.
Community leaders praised Gachagua’s efforts. Ms. Grace Kaniaru remarked, “Women across the country are happy about the eradication of illicit brews and drug abuse. The community supports this effort because it is reuniting families that were previously broken.”
Gachagua also called on leaders to lower political tensions and respect each other. “Let us respect those who are elected and give them a chance to work,” he said. “The public will have the opportunity to review their work and decide whether to renew their contract or terminate it. For now, let us bring down political temperatures and allow those in office to work.”
He was accompanied by over 20 MPs and other political leaders who echoed his sentiments. Nyeri Governor Mutahi Kahiga stated, “We will ensure President Ruto and his Deputy succeed in the transformation agenda and fulfilment of pre-election pledges.”
Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei and Embakasi North MP James Gakuya praised Gachagua’s leadership in agricultural reforms. “The rural economy is being boosted through the economic reforms he is driving,” said Manyatta MP Gitonga Mukunji.
In closing, Gachagua stressed the need for unity among leaders. “Let us avoid divisions and bringing other leaders down. Avoid envy. Let us not fight; instead, love and support each other. I will continue advocating for unity behind President William Ruto. Let us pray for his success,” he concluded.
