President Ruto on Wednesday, September 21, delivered his inaugural speech at the UN General Assembly before holding bilateral talks with several Heads of State.

During his absence, Gachagua has been in charge of the country and before the president returned, he directed the DP to convene a crisis meeting on Monday.

The meeting will entail deliberations on interventions to tame the severe effects of drought that has ravaged most parts of the country.

“My deputy Rigathi Gachagua will, Monday, convene a meeting of GoK involving county leaders/officials to harmonise urgent interventions to stem the severe adverse effects of ravaging drought in almost 20 counties that is putting about 3 million people at great risk," President Ruto said.
