Pastor Dorcas Rigathi has called on Kenyans to desist from gossiping about her husband the deputy president Rigathi Gachagua.
While speaking on Tuesday, June 6 in Bungoma, Pastor Dorcas said her husband is a good leader who was chosen by God to lead the country.
She further defended Gachagua, saying that he is a leader who is dedicated to serving Kenyans.
“When you are around the country, you will hear people talk ill of the deputy president but sincerely speaking, he is a good leader,” she said.
Moreover, the second lady urged the opposition to give President William Ruto’s administration time to work for Kenyans, adding that the Ruto- Rigathi government will deliver its mandate as promised during campaigns.

“Ruto and Rigathi are men of God, even during campaigns, we were praying hard and that is why we won the elections,” she noted.
The second lady further said her office is aiming to support the boy child whom she felt had been neglected. Pastor Dorcas stated that supporting the boy child will greatly lower cases of teenage pregnancy and drug abuse in the community.
“I’m not in that office as an ornament, I’m there to ensure that I support young people where I can,” she said.
Furthermore, her remarks were echoed by Bungoma Governor Ken Lusaka who called on Azimio leaders to give President Ruto time to deliver on his promises.
