Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua finally breaks silence about his whereabouts last week after he missed crucial state functions.
Speaking on Tuesday May 21 during the burial of former Kianyaga High School Principal Julius Kano Ngumbi, Gachagua revealed that he was in at the heart of Mt Kenya Forest.
The Deputy President noted that he took a seven-day leave to pray and meditate on the state of the nation and the welfare of the people of Mt Kenya.
“I had taken seven days away for prayers and fasting, meditation and reflection in the heart of Mt Kenya forest. I had no phone and nobody could disturb me. I had given clear instructions because I wanted to reflect and meditate about the state of our nation and the welfare of the people of our region,” Gachagua revealed.
