Deputy president Rigathi Gachagua yesterday went ahead to give his speech from Mombasa, shortly after President Ruto’s speech in Nairobi.
The deputy president claimed that he and former president Uhuru Kenyatta were to be framed for the protests
“Yesterday, he(the official) was trying to put up a team together to craft lies and propaganda and attribute the chaos that was in the country to leaders, former President Uhuru Kenyatta and I included,” Gachagua started.

He further called out the NIS for their unresponsive nature, especially when protestors invaded the parliament building.
“I want to call on the National Intelligence Service not to take us back to the dark old days of the Nyayo era where you create propaganda and schemes to undermine leaders and those you don’t agree with. The National Intelligence Service slept on the job, and the problem is simple. The Director General of the National Intelligence Service, Noordin Haji, was a junior who served in the National Intelligence Service before he was appointed as DPP. When he was appointed to the office of the director general, because of inferiority complex, he chased away all the people who were senior to him when he was in the service, therefore crippling the capacity of that service and making it dysfunctional.”
He further urged Haji to resign from his work.
