Gachagua’s DCP Party billboard vandalized in Nairobi
Gachagua’s DCP Party billboard vandalized in Nairobi
A massive congratulatory billboard celebrating the Democracy for the Citizens (DCP) party launch was brought down in Nairobi, sparking several reactions.
An image showed the billboard, which featured former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua (Riggy G), the DCP Party Leader, and Irungu Nyakera, reduced to a mangled wreck.
The billboard had carried the message, “Hongera Riggy G on your party launch,” alongside photos of the two leaders.
Nyakera on Saturday, May 17, took to his social media to condemn the act, expressing his disappointment over the destruction of the billboard.
“To the two illegitimate governments’ headquarters in Nairobi: You can destroy a billboard, but you cannot stop the message. Congratulations, Riggy, on DCP Launch. Agenda ni WANTAM for Kenya and Nairobi,” Nyakera stated.
“Politicians wa Kanairo/Kayole,—Isn’t it too early for this?” Nyakera further questioned the motive behind the act.
On May 15, Gachagua launched the new party, characterised by neon green, brown and white colours, with the slogan “Skiza Wakenya” and a logo showing an illustration of an ear with fingers cupped around it, describing the act of listening.
