Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has welcomed ten Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) from Kajiado County to his Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP). 

In a statement on Monday, August 10, Gachagua said the nine MCAs defected from the UDA, ODM and Jubilee parties. 

The DCP party leader noted that the defections are a sign of growing support for his party in Kajiado County. 

“The journey to 100% DCP in Kajiado is almost complete. This morning, I received into the DCP Party 9 MCAs from Kajiado County who have decamped to the party from Jubilee, ODM and UDA. 

“I never asked the MCAs to listen to the ground; they are the ground themselves. They have told me that the ground is green,” Gachagua stated. 

The former DP noted that MCAs made the decision to join DCP after listening to their constituents.
