Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua on Sunday, January 8, once again continued with his onslaughts against Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja.
Gachagua while appearing on Inoro TV said that he will not stop fighting for the business owners in Nairobi County.
The second in command said it was wrong for Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja to ban nightclubs from operating in residential from playing loud music.
“There is no one who makes money by making noise for other people. It is an unpopular decision that I made and the right thing to do,” Gachagau said.
However, while rejecting Sakaja’s plan, the former Mathira MP revealed that clubs should be allowed to operate without being closed down.
Gachagua revealed that he was once a musician at Koinange Street on the outskirts of Nairobi.
“I was once a dance song musician at Dolce club on Koinane street,” the DP said.
He said that the best way Sakaja would do is to sit down with club owners and give them enough time to soundproof their facilities to minimize noise pollution.
“Remember that the bar owners are parents who also need to continue with their businesses to meet their daily bread,” he added.
The deputy president maintained that he will continue fighting for the rights of the businesspeople in Nairobi majority of whom are from his Mt Kenya backyard stating that if fighting for them will make him tribalistic, then so be it.
“I am still the same Gachagua who has been fighting for my people. If this will make me described as tribalistic then may it be,” he said.
The Mt Kenya billionaire however said that he has now been reduced to a beggar since he was declared the deputy president.
“Since I became Deputy President I have become a beggar. I spend all my time begging for food. It is humiliating to me,” the DP added.
