Monday April 3, 2023 – Today Monday, April 3, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua shared photos of himself reporting to work early even after the ODM party leader Raila Odinga suspended his anti-government protests.

With the calling off of the demonstrations, the DP urged all Kenyans to go back to work and resume their businesses.
“Time Check: 5.30 am. As I drove through Nairobi City on my way to work early this morning, I was amazed by the resilience of the Kenyan people,
“Despite the heavy downpour, Kenyans are briskly walking to work as drivers beat the traffic jam and drainage challenges,” Gachagua said in a Tweet.

‘Kenya is a country with the rule of law. Violence and destruction of property have no place in our country. It will never be allowed under the leadership of President William Ruto now or in the future,’ he added.
