Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has pleaded with Kenyans to focus on the government’s positive developments.
Gachagua was speaking in Mwea, Kirinyaga County, during the Consecration and Installation of Regional Bishop Samuel Karimi at the Pentecostal Evangelistic Fellowship of Africa (PEFA) Church.
The DP praised William Ruto’s administration for its achievements, especially job creation for more teachers.
“We should not remain negative. The government has made significant progress, such as hiring 56,000 teachers in a year, streamlining the CBC education system, waiving coffee debts, and resuming stalled road projects,” Gachagua said.
Gachagua urged Gen Z to avoid goons taking over their protests to cause chaos.
“To Gen-Z, we’ve heard you. Continue advocating peacefully but avoid letting goons hijack your protests to cause chaos and destruction.” The DP added.
Meanwhile, Pastor Dorcas Rigathi has maintained that her projects will continue despite the budget for her office being scrapped.
The second lady affirmed that her fight for the boychild would not be affected.
This comes after President William Ruto announced austerity measures in the government.
The president scraped budgetary allocation for the office of the First Lady, spouses of the Deputy President and the Prime Cabinet Secretary.
Pastor Dorcas has been known for her fight against alcoholism especially amongst the youths and has been involved in the rehabilitation of victims.
Dorcas revealed that she started her projects long before she joined the office of the second lady.
