In a public statement, Gachagua claimed that President William Ruto is not concerned when MPs insult ordinary Kenyans because, according to him, the President is the one who sends them to do so.
Speaking during an event, Gachagua said, “When you see MPs insulting Kenyans, President Ruto laughs because he is the one who sends them.”
His words caused a stir as many people wondered what he meant by this statement.
Gachagua's comments seemed to suggest that the MPs were acting according to a plan set by the President, which many found troubling.
Critics of the government have questioned the ethics of such behavior.
Some argue that it is wrong for leaders to encourage insults towards their fellow citizens, especially when these remarks create divisions in society.
One concerned Kenyan said, “It’s not right for leaders to insult us; we are the ones who voted for them. They should respect us.”
On the other hand, Gachagua’s statement raised questions about the relationship between the President and his MPs.
It also made people think about whether MPs are truly representing the interests of their people or simply following orders from above.
“Are these MPs really speaking for the people or just for their own gain?” asked another Kenyan.
The Ex-Deputy President’s words reflect ongoing tensions in Kenya’s political environment, where public figures often make controversial remarks to defend or promote their positions.
The challenge, however, remains whether these actions will help unite the country or deepen the divisions among citizens and their leaders.
In response to these claims, some political analysts suggest that the government might be using such tactics as a strategy to rally support or distract from other issues.
“It’s a dangerous game,” one analyst remarked. “Such comments could backfire and make the government seem disconnected from the people it is supposed to serve.”
