Gachagua can only be removed from DP office through the altar
Kenyans are still processing the impeachment of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, and a resurfaced video of his wife, Pastor Dorcas Rigathi, has added a new layer to the conversation.
In the video, Pastor Dorcas confidently addressed the situation, stating that her husband could not be removed from office due to the power of prayers and divine intervention.
She remarked that Gachagua had been “prayed for on the altar,” and such a blessing could only be undone through the same spiritual process, not by political actions.
“Many of you call him Riggy G, while others call him the truthful man. He is the Deputy President of the Republic of Kenya. Some people are having a hard time accepting that. He was prayed for on the altar. Anyone prayed for on the altar can only be removed through the altar,” Dorcas declared.
Impeachment and power struggles
As political tensions rise amid the rumors of impeachment and power struggles within the government Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua and his wife Dorcas Wanjiku Gachagua have stood together in prayer. Rigathi had mentioned during a press briefing that some of the allegations labelled against him are just foundations that were initiated by his wife.
Gachagua often refers to his wife as his greatest support system, both in politics and in life. Having been by his side through various phases of his career, from civil service to politics, Pastor Dorcas has played a significant role in keeping the family grounded despite the pressures of public life. Their marriage, which began in 1989, has weathered personal and professional storms, showing resilience that mirrors Gachagua’s own political journey.
As the political landscape becomes more turbulent, with the recent #ImpeachingGachagua trend and whispers of dissatisfaction within the government, Rigathi’s personal life seems to offer him a sanctuary. The Deputy President recently addressed the rumours surrounding his alleged undermining of President William Ruto, dismissing claims of discord as unfounded. Throughout this time, his wife has remained steadfast, continuing her charitable and religious work, notably advocating for the empowerment of widows and supporting community development through her initiatives.
Dorcas often reflects on the success of their marriage, emphasizing that while maintaining a marriage requires effort, it can thrive when both partners are committed to working through challenges. She advocates for intentionality, stating that their marriage has survived through mutual respect, love, and a willingness to grow together.
The couple has also supported each other through various ventures, with Dorcas being a strong pillar in Gachagua’s political journey. On several occasions, she has noted how faith and dedication have been central to their relationship. Dorcas, a spiritual leader, uses her platform to encourage families to prioritize values that strengthen marriages, including open communication and shared responsibility.
Looking forward, Pastor Dorcas has expressed her hope for even more years together, stating that they remain committed to seeing their union grow further. This enduring partnership between Gachagua and Dorcas stands as a testament to the power of unity and shared purpose in building a lasting marriage.
