Go and campaign in Nyanza – Gachagua advices Kalonzo Musyoka

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has advised Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka to campaign in the Nyanza region. 

Speaking on Thursday, August 6, Gachagua said Kalonzo supported the late Raila Odinga for more than 15 years, making him a familiar figure in the region.

Gachagua urged the former vice president to take advantage of the goodwill he built while supporting Raila to popularize the united opposition in Nyanza. 

“I was telling Kalonzo Musyoka yesterday that he supported Raila Odinga and the people of Nyanza for a long time. 

“For 15 years, you stood with them, and they know you. Help us to make inroads in Nyanza. Kalonzo should now tour the region and help consolidate our support there,” Gachagua said.

The former DP praised Jubilee Deputy Party leader Fred Matiang’i after he toured Kuria in Migori. 

Gachagua asked Matiang’i to also try to make inroads in Homa Bay County and the rest of Migori County. 

“My brother Fred Matiang’i, I saw you yesterday campaigning in Kuria. Good work. Consolidate support there, strengthen our support in Kisii, and if you can, also move into Homa Bay and Migori because they are your neighboring counties,” he stated.

The DCP party leader said he will consolidate support in the Mt Kenya region, Nairobi and South Rift Valley. 

“When I assess where I have the most influence and where I can deliver votes for the united opposition, it is the Mt. Kenya region, Nairobi, and the South Rift, including the Maasai and Kipsigis communities,” Gachagua added. 

This comes a day after he challenged Justin Muturi, Peter Munya and Lenny Kivuti to make efforts to popularize their parties. 

Speaking at his Wamunyoro home, Gachagua noted that the DCP party is popular in Mt Kenya because he and his team work hard and hold numerous rallies in the region.

“DCP has become popular because its party leader, Rigathi Gachagua, and his team are working hard. So, I am telling my brothers, come, let’s work together, and market your political parties. If you don’t market your parties, you will end up making losses,” he said.
