Gachagua’s message to Mbeere North locals
Gachagua described Mbeere North as a powerful symbol of resistance and renewal, saying the region stands at the centre of Kenya’s political, economic and social liberation journey as the by-election approaches.
“Mbeere North is strong and inspiring, they stand at the intersection of our Nation’s liberation,” Gachagua has posted, celebrating what he called an unstoppable wave of civic awakening.
He said his tour, which ran from November 16 to stops in Ishiara, Kanyuambora and Siakago, had revealed renewed hope among residents determined to shape the future through the ballot.
“There is no greater hope of liberation than we have witnessed today, the people are draining the swamp and the hegemony must fall,” Gachagua has said.
He also warned that oligarchs have no space in a civilised society.
He further praised locals for standing firm against intimidation and bribery, adding that their commitment sends a strong signal to corrupt leaders ahead of the 2027 general election.
Gachagua to safeguard Mbeere North votes
“That notwithstanding, Gachagua speaking to the media earlier said that he will safeguard the votes,” he emphasised.
Additionally, he reiterated his pledge to protect every ballot cast in Mbeere North.
“Kazi yenu ni kupiga kura mpige kura, kazi ya kuchunga kura muwachie Riggy G na watu yake, hakuna ata kura moja itapotea,” Gachagua said.
He insisted that the by-election will reflect the true will of the people, saying no external pressure or manipulation will weaken their resolve to choose their preferred leader.
The former Deputy President concluded his tour with a rallying message to residents of Kanyuambora and the wider constituency, urging them to remain vigilant and united as voting day draws near.
“Asanteni sana WanaKanyuambora, intimidation and voter bribery will not sway you in the least,” Gachagua has said.
He has framed the by-election as a defining moment for Kenya’s democratic path.
