Monday, November 24, 2025 - Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has claimed that he narrowly escaped an attempted attack during a church service in Mbeere North, where he was campaigning for DP Party candidate, Newton Karish.
Speaking during an interview after the incident, Gachagua
alleged that a man he described as a Personal Assistant to Public Service
Cabinet Secretary, Geoffrey Ruku, attempted to confront him while armed with a
knife.
According to Gachagua, members of the congregation and
youths who were present quickly intervened and restrained the individual before
any harm occurred.
Gachagua condemned the incident, accusing allies of
President William Ruto of resorting to intimidation instead of engaging in
issue-based campaigns ahead of the November 27th Mbeere North by-election.
He urged political leaders to exercise restraint and allow
voters to make their democratic choices peacefully.
