Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has announced he will be speaking to the nation on Sunday, February 9, 2025, to give the way forward following long consultations with Kenyans since December 2024.
Speaking on Sunday, February 2, during a church service in Mathioya constituency, Murang'a County, Gachagua said he would inform Kenyans of what he had been able to collect during his consultations.
The former DP noted that if a new administration takes over in 2027, its first priority will be to scrap off the housing Levy and dignify the payslip that he claims has been raided by the Kenya Kwanza administration.
Gachagua pointed out that the economy has deteriorated because of the raid on payslips hence weakening the purchasing power.
At the same time, Gachagua called out the Kenya Kwanza government saying it has been lying to Kenyans and taking their hard-earned money from the pocket instead of putting the money back.

Further, the ex-DP slammed President William Ruto saying it was pointless for him to be concerned about the chaos in DRC while at home there are ongoing abductions and killings of government critics.
“It is pointless, Mr. President, for you to pretend to be creating peace in DRC when your government is abducting and killing our children. It doesn’t make sense; that is pretense.
"How are you concerned about the insecurity in DRC when under your very watch, your government is abducting and killing our young children?” he posed.
Gachagua also slammed the Ruto administration for diverting public funds to try and woo Mt. Kenya voters instead of putting the said money into development.
He asked the Mt Kenya residents to take the money but be cautious as it's blood money.
