Former Second Lady Rev. Dorcas Rigathi has intimated that her husband’s impeachment was a blessing in disguise as it has helped them advance their agitation for better leadership.

According to Rev. Dorcas, the ousting of Rigathi Gachagua from office in October 2024 has earned him prominence by etching his name as a top opposition member, and gained significant support from Kenyans.

“I think Gachagua’s impeachment happened for our good. He is now on everyone’s lips, and everyone is talking about him. I doubt he would be as popular if he were still in office,” she said on Citizen TV’s Sunday Live Show.

She added that ills tied to the government like abductions, the high cost of living and the death of youths during protests are what they passionately want to change in the upcoming 2027 General Election.

“I can tell you it would be difficult if today we were in office, like the abductions and death of the Gen Zs. When you watch these things from the outside and think of the many things you would want to do, we look forward to 2026,” she added.

The ex-Second Lady added that the family, however, lives with worry over his security, citing attacks on his convoy and public appearances.

“There has been a lot of incidences that would worry us like going to church and he is attacked by goons. Of course you are on edge and as a family we get abit disturbed by those incidences. We are still continuing,” she said.

She firmly defended the ex-DP, now the Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) leader, saying that she foresaw the impeachment, intimating that

Sometimes when you see two people who walked together start to have different opinions…I saw it, and I prayed about it, and it worked good,” she added.

Rev. Dorcas believes Gachagua harbors the best political ambitions for the nation’s growth and remains positive to clench victory in the 2027 polls.
