The deal that led to my fallout with President Ruto; Gachagua
Rigathi Gachagua now says the Adani Group deal is what led to his fallout with President Ruto.
Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has asked his former boss President William Ruto to listen to the voice of the people.
Speaking on Sunday, November 24, during a church service in Kigumo, Murang’a County, Gachagua claimed that issue with the Adani Group is what led to his fallout with President Ruto.
The former DP asserted that he had told the president that the deals with the Indian firm were shady and that the people did not want it.
He, however, claimed that the Head of State dismissed him, alleging that he was opposing government projects.
“The matter with Adani is what led to my fallout with the president. Because in the Cabinet, I was the only person who could tell him the truth. All the others were cowards. I told him the issue with Adani is shady and the people don’t want it. He hated me. It was said I’m opposing government projects. I would like to ask the president to take time to read the book of John 8:31. Let him agree to listen to the people of Kenya,” Gachagua claimed.

He further claimed that the president did not cancel the Adani deals out of a move from his heart but because the Indian firm’s founder was indicted in the United States.
“Even after the president cancelled the deals, there was no need to clap for him because it did not come from his heart. He only responded after that suspect was indicted in the United States,” the former deputy president claimed.
While making the move to scrap the deals last Thursday, President Ruto noted that the new orders were informed by new information regarding the integrity of the Indian company.
“I have stated in the past, and I reiterate today, that in the face of undisputed evidence or credible information on corruption, I will not hesitate to take decisive action,” the president remarked.
