Gachagua is expected to address residents at the centre as he continues his political engagements in the region.
The former Deputy President and his entourage on Friday made a stopover at the home of the late Johana Ngeno, where they condoled with the late MP's mother.
Police officers have been deployed around Mogondor Centre, with heightened security expected as supporters and residents gather ahead of Gachagua’s arrival.
This comes as Gachagua and the opposition have condemned the rise in violence witnessed during rallies.
Last week, DCP's convoy was attacked in Nakuru county, with Gachagua vowing not to stop his tours of the region despite what he termed as a plot by government operatives to cause chaos during rallies.
On Wednesday, the United Alternative Government called upon the Chief Prosecutor at the International Criminal Court to initiate action against President William Ruto following investigations over the latest political violence experienced across the country.
In a statement read on behalf of the United Opposition, People's Liberation Party Leader Martha Karua highlighted recent attacks on Opposition politicians during rallies, calling on the government to explain how such chaos could occur under its watch.
She noted that the ICC ought to review the status of previous charges levelled against President Ruto and assess whether to reopen the case.
