Rigathi's walk to the mountain came even as Cabinet and Senior Ranks of the Executive pitched a tent at Fairmount Mount Kenya Safari Club, domiciled at the foot of Mount Kenya, to deliberate on taking the country forward in line with their Kenya Kwanza Plan.

"Facing Mount Kenya, I prayed to 'Mwene Nyaga' to give good health and wisdom to our Great Leader President @WilliamsRuto  as he embarks on the economic transformation of our nation and the restoration of the dignity of the Kenyan people. Mlima is calm, steady, and stoic na iko sawa," Gachagua said.

Gachagua has been positioning himself as the Mt Kenya kingpin who is to take over from Former President Uhuru Kenyatta.
