Gachagua: Gov't is a Company, Some Kenyans Are Majority Shareholders and Others Have None

Gachagua: Gov't is a Company, Some Kenyans Are Majority Shareholders and Others Have None

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua says only those who voted for President Ruto will get appointments and contracts in the Kenya Kwanza government.

Speaking during a tour of various projects in Kericho County, Gachagua described the government as a company in which some Kenyans have shares while others have none.

He stated that the Kenya Kwanza administration will first reward those who worked to ensure Ruto clinched the presidency in the last election and others will share the leftovers.

“This government is a company that has shares. There are owners who have the majority of shares, and those with just a few, while others do not have any. You invested in this government and you must reap. You sowed, tilled, put manure and irrigated, and now it is time to reap,” Gachagua said.

Gachagua took a dig at a section of opposition leaders who started trooping to State House seeking government positions.

 “Some are criticizing me for saying those who sowed reap first, but there is nothing wrong. Their time of reaping will come some day in what remains after those who sowed have finished reaping,” he noted.

The deputy president insisted that those who voted for the other presidential candidates must learn a lesson about elections.

“Elections have significance. You cannot make noise talking ill of Ruto and after he wins you get in line to get benefits before those who were with him,” he added.

    This is your future president in 25 years . He said is clearly: you reap what you have sowed. So Kenyans planted an idiot for vice president and now , they are reaping. First he says Nairobi is for Mt.Kenya ppl when he the mayor wanted to br the mattes from the CBD area. Now he says Kenya is not for everyone. Think about that for a second!

    Is this a government or a looters leadership. You have no mandate to rule Kenya if that is your attitude. Take your people and forget about those who did not vote for you. The rest should not pay taxes to feed the Ruto sycophants. Kenya has no leadership. What we have are a bunch of looters.

    This is the tragedy of our country. Those in power talking recklessly and emotionally without the benefit of intellect. How can you tell Kenyans that Kenya belongs to you and Ruto. Kenya is for every Mwananchi! Those who voted whichever this way. Those who refused to vote, those who couldn't vote - even the unborn. This is our country not a private corporation. Think before you talk!

    Gachagua is proving himself to be a spiteful,vengeful greedy scoundrel. isn't he? Governance should be on merit & based on individuals with best qualifications for the jobs .

    Kabla ya upigaji wa kura mwaka uliopita, Rais Mstaafu Uhuru Ngina Kamau aliwaonya WaKenya wasiwapigie kura Samoei na Rigathi.

    Wananchi walikataa kuyasikia mawaidha ya Rais Mstaafu. Sasa wakati umefika wa "KUONA CHA MTEMA KUNI."

    Ni lazima tuhakikishe ya kwamba, hawa wanafunzi wa Toroitich (Samoei na Rigathi) wamestaafishwa mwaka wa 2027, kwa manufaa ya umma.
    Hayati Mpilo Tutu wa COHO (Continent Of Human Origins a.k.a. Africa) ya Kusini aliwika na kusema:

    "If you are silent in situations of injustice, you have taken the side of the oppressor."

    This "truthful" man doesn't know how to behave when in a presidency position. I can only compare him with Moises Kuria

    The worst VP Kenya has ever had. His mental state should be evaluated sooner than later.

    Gachagua is another wasted sperm

  14. Kora KaniniFeb 20, 2023

    Gachagua is right. We can bi$$h all we want, but truth be told Kenya is owned by very few people. We Paul kagame or Msheveni.

    I feel sorry for Kenyans. This is what we have became. So sorry. With this kind of mentality it appears that we are all doomed!!!!!!!!!!! Poor Kenyans. You asked for it, you got it!!!!!!! These are your politicians. God help us all.

    No wonder Mau Mau weren't given leadership 63. Too rough and gruff. Freedom fighters not always good leaders. Look at S Sudan, Castro, Savimbi, etc
