There was a light moment on Sunday, June 9, during the Akorinu National Prayers Conference in Nakuru County after Nyandarua senator John Methu teased that the Akorinu believers got worried about Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
Taking to the podium to give his remarks, the lawmaker said that the Akurino believers had started getting worried when they did not see the DP at the on set of the prayers.
Methu said that Gachagua was a great friend of the Akurino community and when they did not see him, they got jumpy.
"We want to thank you (Gachagua) for finding time to come. We had started panicking when the service started. The person we knew was nowhere to be been seen and we had agreed you would come dressed in white.
"We were looking for the DP in white clothing but we could not see you. That's why you saw the believers start clapping amid the prayers when they saw you because you have been our friend," Senator Methu remarked.
