Senior Economic Advisor Moses Kuria has recently criticised former DP Rigathi Gachagua over alleged plans to lead protests should CJ Martha Koome be dismissed from office.
Expressing himself on his socials, Kuria accused Gachagua of attempting to run a selfish political agenda by allegedly allowing Mt Kenya residents to protest.
According to Kuria, there is no problem with anyone advancing their legitimate political goals but calling for demonstrations for Mt Kenya youths to get killed on the streets was unreasonable.

“I have no problem with anyone advancing their legitimate political goals. But telling young men from my region to come to the streets and get shot dead while other regions are pursuing an agenda is very selfish,” Moses Kuria commented on his X account.
Kuria further called on the former DP to first protest alongside his children before rallying other Mount Kenya residents to the demonstrations.
His comment came a few hours after Gachagua pledged to lead mass protests if the chief justice is removed from office.
Speaking during an interview on Sunday, February 9, Gachagua noted that he will not allow CJ Koome to be hounded out of office the same way he was impeached.
The former DP moreover emphasised that politicians from the Mt Kenya region will not keep quiet if the government begins to frustrate or mistreat leaders from the region.
