NAIROBI, Kenya, Nov 1 – Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has dismissed claims of a fallout between him and retired President Uhuru Kenyatta, defending his predecessor’s record and accusing President William Ruto of turning against the former Head of State after benefiting from his political support.

Gachagua said Uhuru had completed his constitutional term and handed over a stable country, accusing the current administration of damaging the country while continuing to use political allies to attack the retired President.

The former Deputy President made the remarks during a church service at Kamangu Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA) in Kikuyu Constituency, Kiambu County, where he launched a fresh attack on Ruto and Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung’wah over what he termed a campaign to intimidate the Kikuyu community and interfere with church affairs.
