[PHOTOS] Gachagua takes campaigns to Kirinyaga

UDA deputy party leader Rigathi Gachagua on Friday took campaigns to Kirinyaga county.

Gachagua held a series of rallies in the county during which he urged residents to back DP William Ruto for president.

Leaders present were Kirinyaga governor Anne Waiguru, Speaker of National Assembly Justin Muturi, Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria and a host of leaders from the Mt Kenya region.

Gachagua said that the Kenya Kwanza government will invest in infrastructure, farm inputs and technology to ensure every farmer has a profitable market for their produce.

He stated that the high cost of food in the country cannot be tackled through hurried, transitory and politically-driven gestures.

''It is Kenya Kwanza's deliberate and innovative subsidy plan that will allow our farmers to produce more to feed us in the long run," Gachagua said.
