President William Ruto’s senior economic advisor Moses Kuria has condemned the incident in which goons stormed a church service where former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua was in attendance.
Kuria through his X handle termed the incident as ungodly.
"This is utterly ungodly. Leave your backward and primitive political wars out of places of worship. Today was AIPCA Kenol reloaded. The lightning that will strike us is still loading. Pole sana Gachagua," he said through the tweet.
Kuria's remarks come after chaos briefly erupted when unknown individuals attempted to disrupt a church service attended by the former Deputy President.
The disturbance occurred shortly after Gachagua and his entourage arrived for the Sunday service, as the group attempted to storm the church, temporarily compromising the security of congregants.
During the attack, Gachagua was quickly shielded by his security team, who took defensive positions to prevent the intruders from gaining access.
During the brief commotion, the group could be heard shouting while trying to force their way in, with church members standing in resistance.
Gunshots were also heard.
“Let us remain calm, please,” the bishop was heard urging the congregation amid the unrest.
Despite the tense moments, calm was restored as security forces dispersed the group, allowing the service to continue without further incident.
Speaking after the chaos had cooled down, Gachagua questioned the motive of the attack, saying it should not happen at this age.
"I don't understand why goons were sent to attack us during a church
service. I don't want to speak much right now because I have an
interview tomorrow and I have things to say," the former DP said.
