‘Don’t worry!' Former DP Gachagua's message to Mt Kenya region

Speaking on Friday in Limuru, Kiambu County, the ousted deputy president reassured his supporters that they shouldn’t be worried regarding the political future of the region, urging them to remain calm.

“I want to tell the people from our region not to get worried, many people are calling me asking what will happen. Please, don’t worry; our community is very unique and many people are shocked,” he said.

According to the ex-DP, the majority of Kenyans were expecting his supporters to stage demonstrations in rejection of the impeachment motion as has been the norm for leaders from other regions.

Consequently, he claimed that when his people are irked, they release the negative energy through songs and dances.

“They expected people to go to the streets, lighting fires, destroying vehicles and shouting; that's not who we are. These people don't know us well, when we feel offended we keep quiet. If you feel so offended that you must express yourself, do it through songs or dance,” Gachagua noted.

The remarks by Gachagua come as questions continue to linger over his political future with some suggesting that the recent impeachment may have been the end of his career.
