Gachagua Bolsters DCP Party Ranks with High-Profile Entrants at Nyeri Home

NYERI, Kenya — Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has intensified his efforts to strengthen the Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP), receiving prominent leaders at his Wamunyoro private residence in Watu, Nyeri County.

Following the high-profile reception of Nyandarua County Governor His Excellency Badilisha to the outfit on July 29, Gachagua welcomed former Githunguri Member of Parliament, Hon. Kago Wa Lydia, alongside prominent businessman and political figure Dr. Thuo Mathenge to the growing political movement.

Consolidating Mt. Kenya Support

Speaking during the morning event, Gachagua revealed that Hon. Kago Wa Lydia expressed his commitment to contest the Githunguri parliamentary seat on a DCP ticket, citing direct instructions from his constituents.

Gachagua assured the incoming leaders of transparent internal democratic processes:

Democratic Nominations: A commitment to free and fair nominations for all prospective aspirants across the country.
Grassroots Mobilization: A call to new entrants to lead robust membership recruitment campaigns in their respective regions.
Welcoming Dr. Thuo Mathenge, Gachagua framed the party’s green brand identity—carrying slogans such as “The Future is Green” and “Green is Wealth”—as a symbol of economic rejuvenation and national political transformation.
The strategic defections underscore Gachagua’s hands-on approach to consolidating regional support ahead of upcoming electoral contests, signaling a major realignment within the Mt. Kenya political landscape.
