Former Laikipia Woman Representative Cate Waruguru has expressed support for former Deputy President Rigathi gachagua saying he has paid the price for her generation.
Addressing a congregation at Priesthood Fellowship Church in Kahawa West, Nairobi, Waruguru asserted that the former DP who seized to hold office after being impeached by Both the Senate and National Assembly, has paid the price like other leaders before him such as former presidents Mwai Kibaki and Uhuru Kenyatta.
She encouraged Gachagua saying he is not alone and that the people of the Mount Kenya region are still rallying behind him every step of the way.
While referring to Gachagua’s ouster, Waruguru further explained the importance of preparing to face consequences for good things to happen.
“There’s nothing good that will come if you’re not ready to pay a price. You’ve paid a price for my generation. Mzee Kibaki paid a price some 20 years ago, Uhuru Kenyatta paid his price. I want to tell you my brother that you are not alone,” she said.
At the same time, Waruguru urged the Mt Kenya region not to entertain any form of reciting remarks over Gachagua’s ouster.
She also warned that the loud silence from the region should not be mistaken for cluelessness over what was going on.
“When you see this people quiet, they are not quiet because they don’t know what is happening in this country. Watu wakiona tumenyamaza waache kushinda wametuambia sisi ni waoga, we are not going to allow you to take us to that path of incitement, making ridicule of our community, nobody is going to incite us against our community, we have invested in this country and over beyond we are into the diaspora and every corner of the world,” she added.
