Gachagua Praises Ndindi Nyoro, Discloses He Used to Hide in His House to Avoid Arrest
A motion for the impeachment of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua was submitted to the National Assembly on Tuesday, October 1.
The motion received support from 291 Members of Parliament, including a representative from the Mathira constituency, which is Gachagua’s home area.
What comments did Gachagua make about Ndindi Nyoro?
Before the motion’s presentation, Gachagua praised Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro, revealing details about their previously unknown relationship.
He characterized Nyoro as a disciplined and competent leader who stayed above the political fray during discussions.
“I have mentored him and will continue to do so. He is a bright young man. That’s why you won’t hear him resorting to insults. He is respectful and conducts himself like a leader because he understands his responsibilities. He has a promising future and is a very good friend of mine,” Gachagua remarked.
Gachagua also shared that Nyoro provided him refuge during the pursuit by former president Uhuru Kenyatta’s administration.
“During the times I was arrested every Friday under the previous regime, I would go to his home, where his wife Sophia would prepare meals for me,” he stated.
