Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua and MP Oscar Sudi head over Gen Z protests and impeachment that are in parliament. Both accuse each other of misdeeds.
Riggy G posted on social media saying, “The use of the criminal justice system to manage politics is an outdated political strategy that was used in the past.
“President William Ruto and I, on assuming office, gave an undertaking to the people of Kenya that never again shall the criminal justice system be called upon to help in the management of politics.
“I am embarrassed that we are back to where we were. Harassment of my office staff and Members of Parliament perceived to be close to me has been going on for the last two months.
“I have learnt of a scheme to prefer trumped-up charges against three members of my staff and the MPs for Embakasi North Hon James Gakuya and Embakasi Central Hon Benjamin Gathiru Mejja Donk.
“This evil scheme is to associate them with violent demonstrations that took place in late June, in a futile attempt to soil my name and hopefully create grounds for the mooted impeachment proceedings against me.
“Kenyans are very intelligent people. They know what factors made the people of Kenya take to the streets. Kenyans also understand the underlying issues facing their country. They surely know Rigathi Gachagua is not among them.
“Let our agencies remain professional, follow the rule of law, and keep off politics.”
MP Oscar Sudi also hit back at the statement, saying Riggy G’s time is up in the UDA government, and it was the moment to reflect and think about home.
Oscar Sudi’s move comes after he stated that the Deputy President had only two weeks in government.
“My boss, it’s no longer a secret that you’re the mastermind behind the dead-on-arrival plan to oust our president.
“Young people were killed in the streets, and those jailed are a result of the money you poured to sponsor demos, yet now you claim you’re fighting for them! Save for the respect we have for your office; you belong to jail.
“Unfortunately, you’re using upcoming political leaders like James Gakuya, Alfred Keter, and Benjamin Gathiru after attempting to mess up the political careers of brilliant leaders like Ichungwah, Kimani Kuria, Cecily Mbarire, and Ndindi Nyoro.
“Just know we’re woke and wise enough not to go after the piper but the chief financier of chaos. Tuko macho mbaya sana.
“We know what you’re planning, kwa hii maneno inakuja lakini tuko rada.
“Don’t hide your ill intentions by attempting to box Mt. Kenya people into a tribal cocoon.
“You’re a Kenyan leader, and it’s a shame to dwell on Usiguse Murima and other stories when you know they’re about your selfish agenda and not our fellow Kenyans in Central. Shame on you!” Sudi posted on social media.
