To Kenya Kwanza’s administration, former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua is the bogeyman responsible for the government’s inefficiencies and the root cause of all the troubles facing President William Ruto’s government.
Gachagua inherited this bogeyman title from ODM leader Raila Odinga, who has transitioned from being a ‘career’ government critic to a supporter. Before his handshake with President Ruto, the ODM party leader was, according to government apologists, an existential threat to the country’s peace and stability.
