Pro-government lawmakers have demanded the arrest of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua for allegedly inciting Kenyans into violence for his political gain.
The MPs, led by Kimilili Member of Parliament Didmus Barasa, accused the former DP of reportedly hiring goons from central Kenya to destroy properties in Nairobi's Central Business District (CBD).
Addressing the press on Thursday morning in Nairobi, the vocal legislator claimed that Gachagua hired the goons and ordered them to destroy the properties of people who do not conform to his political stand. "We are demanding the immediate arrest of the former DP who has been on record sounding drums of war, inciting our young people against individuals who do not subscribe to his political ideology," Barasa claimed.
