Gachagua, who insisted that President William Ruto’s administration will never entertain any form of handshake, said Raila should keep the government in check.

The DP blamed Raila for abetting state capture and extra-judicial killings by going to bed with retired President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government.

“Hard Raila remained in the opposition, these atrocities would not have happened,’ Gachagua claimed.

“There would have not been conflict of interest or massive looting of public funds if Raila remained in the opposition.”

Gachagua said the Kenya Kwanza is keen on a “strong and vibrant opposition to keep us in check”.

“Please Mzee(Raila) take your rightful place as the leader of opposition….keep us in check and criticise us where we go wrong…we shall take it nicely if you do your work,” he said.

He also rubbished Raila’s call for the government to invite the Scotland Yard to prove extrajudicial killings saying the country’s security officers are competent enough to do the jobs.

“Going forward the government of President Ruto will govern under the rule of law,” he said.

Gachagua spoke when he attended a church service at AIPCA Kenol, Murang’a county.    BY THE STAR
