Politicians Denied Chance to Speak at Ruto’s Event in Nyandarua.

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua revealed that the presiding Bishop had told him that the politicians were not allowed to give speeches at the altar. 

As such, only the Deputy President and President William Ruto spoke to the congregants at AIPCA Ndogino, Ndaragwa, Nyandarua County.

President William Ruto and other politicians had attended the event on the invite of Bishop David Kibao Mundia. 

After being denied the chance to speak, the politicians had to rely on DP Rigathi Gachagua to announce their presence to the congregants.

“Let me recognise these politicians. You know the church has told me today that these politicians are no longer allowed to speak,” Gachagua announced the end of political rhetoric in houses of worship. 

Some of the leaders who had accompanied the President included Nyandarua Governor Moses Kiarie Badilisha as well as area senator John Methu.

The area Member of Parliament George Gachagua who was playing host to the Head of State was also denied a chance to speak. 

Notably, the crowd cheered after the announcement that local politicians should not be allowed to speak in church. 

The Deputy President remarked that if the politicians do not listen to the wishes of the people, they will be voted out in 2027. 

DP Gachagua also urged the locals to show political restraint and avoid attacking the homes of local parliamentarians.  

President William Ruto agreed with the Bishop’s request and further explained the government would seek ways to fund the construction of churches without resorting to Harambees.
