Nakuru Senator Tabitha Karanja blamed former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's ally Joe Nyutu for the former DP's woes, noting that his words and actions catalysed Gachagua's downfall.

While appearing in a television show on Citizen TV, Karanja spilled the beans, stating that her Murang'a counterpart stoked the fire with his comments during Senate sessions and political gatherings about Mt Kenya's superiority and Gachagua's influence in the region. "He was responsible for the fall of Gachagua with his comments.

And I remember knocking on his door and asking him what he was seeking to achieve.

I even went to our WhatsApp groups asking what was going on," Karanja remarked.
