“Voters and Kenyans, in general, should start questioning their leaders to enhance accountability in governance and make the leaders accountable for the decisions they make on public issues. The political leaders that are being used to pull others down and drive a wedge in the Mt Kenya community should be cautious because their mission will fail,” Gachagua warned in the wake of a broad-based government.
Gachagua responded to allegations of tribalism by reiterating his dedication and affection for his Mt Kenya community, while also highlighting his inclusive stance toward all Kenyans.
“I have a weakness of loving my people from Mt Kenya’s backyard. You may have to forgive me. It does not mean I have a problem with the other Kenyans. The rest of Kenya are also our friends and we talk the same language and we understand each other,” he explained.
“Let us love each other, support each other, stay close to each other, and care for each other,” Gachagua urged, reinforcing his message of unity and cooperation among all Kenyans.
Gachagua welcomed the four nominees from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) namely, Wycliffe Oparanya, Hassan Joho, John Mbadi, and Opiyo Wandayi, affirming their inclusion in the Cabinet as a positive step towards a united and inclusive government.
