What you need to know:

  • The DP spoke on Friday at Ntrukuma village in Laikipia East Constituency in the company of Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi and three cabinet nominees during the burial of Ms Susan Kiiru, mother of Secretary to the Cabinet Mercy Wanjau.
  • Conspicuously missing during the ceremony was area MP Mwangi Kiunjuri who on Thursday launched a scathing attack against the DP, accusing him of destabilising the government to the point where opposition leader Raila Odinga had to be brought in.

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has lashed out at unnamed leaders seeking to gain political mileage out of the anti-government protests that rocked the country recently.

Terming such leaders idiots, Mr Gachagua said it was saddening that these individuals were out to settle political scores with those they do not agree with on certain issues.
