David Kipsang Keter, the Member of Parliament for Emurua Dikirr, has softened his stance on former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's planned visit to his constituency. Earlier this month, Keter had warned Gachagua against coming, but in an interview on Thursday, August 20, 2026, Keter now said Gachagua is welcome to Emurua Dikirr.
He also urged residents to maintain peace and allow Gachagua to conduct his rally without confrontation. The change in tone comes as Gachagua prepares to make the visit on Friday, August 21, during a thanksgiving rally organized by his Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) following a May parliamentary by-election.
