Former Kenyan Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua plans to release his interim report through broadcast media on Sunday evening, February 9, 2025. He announced the upcoming address on his X social media platform, inviting citizens to watch the televised presentation starting at 7 PM.
The report stems from extensive consultations Gachagua conducted with various groups at his residence. Though he initially intended to share findings by December 31, 2024, he cited overwhelming public response as the reason for the delay. "I ask for forgiveness for being a little bit late. The responses and feedback were overwhelming," Gachagua explained.
He noted the consultations drew broader participation than expected. "At first, I thought it would only be people from Mt Kenya who would show up; however, many people from across the country came, and I saw it fit not to lock anyone out," he said.
The former Deputy President's Wamunyoro residence has become a center of political activity, particularly attracting delegations from Mt Kenya counties to discuss future political options. His meetings have included politicians, opinion leaders, church officials, and professionals from the region, indicating possible groundwork for 2027 political aspirations.
From these discussions, Gachagua emphasized that solutions to national challenges rest with the citizens themselves. He stressed the importance of inclusive participation in the country's development process. "We will re-orientate our political discourse. The consultations continue," he stated on February 2, 2025.
The broadcast will air across multiple television and radio stations, making it accessible to viewers nationwide. Gachagua pledged to maintain an ongoing dialogue with leaders throughout Kenya about advancing the country's interests.
