Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has received 24 sitting Members of County Assembly (MCAs) from Laikipia and Nakuru counties into his Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP). Gachagua hosted the MCAs at his Wamunyoro residence on Wednesday, where he welcomed their decision to join the opposition party. “The mass exodus from UDA, TSP and other wheelbarrow outfits to DCP is gaining momentum, and by December, they will be mere shells,” Gachagua said. “I am pleased to have received 24 sitting MCAs from Laikipia and Nakuru counties, who paid a visit to me at the Wamunyoro residence,” he added. Gachagua has been seeking to consolidate political support in the region as he positions DCP ahead of the 2027 elections.
