“I admire the courage of the Deputy President, now welcome to the club of courageous people and I call on you to exercise courage for the sake of Kenyans,” the Wiper party leader commented.
The former Vice president went ahead to defend DP Gachagua over claims of being termed a villager and called on him not to fall for such comments.
Kalonzo also fault the government for failing to protect its citizens following the death of youngster Rex Masai who reportedly succumbed after being shot while demonstrating.
According to Kalonzo, it was the right of every Kenyan to picket and demonstrate without interference from police officers.
