Impeached Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua‘s security has been reinstated according to Kiambu Senator Karung’o Thang’wa.

In a statement on Sunday, October 27, the Kiambu Senator said part of Gachagua’s security has been reinstated.

“The state has reinstated part of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s security detail. In the same spirit, I urge the government to take the next honourable step and reinstate his employees as well. Justice must not only be done but must also be seen to be done, “Thang’wa revealed.

Thang’wa revealed the statement after he accompanied the impeached Deputy President to a church in Kiambu County.

“Today, I had the honour of joining Deputy President Gachagua for the Sunday morning service at ACK Cathedral in Kiambu Town.

The provost delivered an inspiring sermon, encouraging us to keep praising, praying, and singing to the Lord,” the Kiambu Senator said.

In what seems to be a political undertone, the Kiambu Senator expressed optimism that Gachagua will overcome the court battles related to his impeachment.

“Just as He broke the walls and chains for Paul and Silas, God will also break our shackles and set us free,” Thang’wa’s statement read.

Rigathi’s Security Withdrawn

Thangwa’s statement comes days after Gachagua’s security detail was withdrawn while seeking treatment at the Karen Hospital.

On Sunday, October 20, Gachagua addressed the media within the vicinity of Karen Hospital and disclosed that his security was withdrawn while he was admitted to the facility.

He criticized the government for taking away his security while he was hospitalised.

“It is very unfortunate that when I was here in the hospital my brother and my friend President William Ruto ordered the withdrawal of my security from the hospital here.

He ordered the withdrawal of security guards in my rural home in Nyeri, in a private home in Karen and officers close to me were disarmed and warned not to associate with me,” Gachagua revealed.

At the same time, Gachagua said he was surprised by the actions President William Ruto has taken against him, noting that he stood by Ruto while the government was frustrating him during Uhuru Kenyatta’s tenure.

“I did not know that President William Ruto could become that vicious. I am shocked by how vicious a man I helped to become president could be. A man I believed in. A man I was viciously persecuted for supporting could be so vicious while I am literally fighting for my life in hospital,” Gachagua further revealed.
