Late Nyeri Governor Nderitu Gachagua's son has come out to refute allegations that he has been disinherited of his father’s properties.
He was responding to a post by Kileleshwa MCA Robert Alai who had asked about his whereabouts.
“Where is Ken Nderitu? He is over 35 years old now. He asked Rigathi to teach him how to run a family business but he is nowhere to support his case,” Alai said.
Ken Nderitu said his uncle, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, has taught him about business, and that the estate of his late father has been handled in the way his dad would have been satisfied.
"My uncle has taught me a lot about business, the estate of my late father has been handled in a way he would have been satisfied with.
“So kindly, stop using my family’s loss and bereavement as a means to make relevant or propagate your fledging political career,” he said on X.
The DP has condemned his political detractors for involving his late brother’s will in the impeachment motion against him.
Senior Counsel James Orengo has accused the DP of irregularly obtaining funds from his late brother’s accounts.
Speaking on Wednesday during the impeachment hearing, Orengo expressed doubts about how Gachagua executed his brother's Will, which has become the subject of the impeachment case.
He claimed that the Deputy President “raided” his brother’s accounts and used the proceeds to acquire prime properties.
