Kenyans have taken to social media to react after two residents from the Rift Valley announced their bold plan to cycle all the way from Eldoret City to Wamunyoro in Nyeri County to visit former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
The two, identified as Kiprono and Kimeli, revealed that they will ride bicycles for hundreds of kilometers in a symbolic show of support for Gachagua, who was recently impeached while serving under President William Ruto’s administration.
According to the duo, their journey is meant to send a clear political message and to personally encourage the former Deputy President.
Speaking before embarking on the journey, the two said they believe Gachagua still has a lot to offer the Republic of Kenya despite his impeachment.
They argued that leadership is not defined by positions but by vision and courage, adding that Gachagua stood firm on issues affecting ordinary Kenyans.
