This, he has alleged, is as a result of the impeachment of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, who was leading the anti-brew war.
According to him, brewers and dealers are now free to go about their businesses because Gachagua's successor, Kithure Kindiki, is working with them.
“The fight against alcoholism and drugs died the day Rigathi Gachagua left office. The current Deputy President is not only silent, he’s part of the problem. Some of these brewers are his proxies,” he claims.
The lawmaker made this claim in Kiruari village, Embu North, as reported by Citizen Digital.
He claimed the government has also cancelled Dorcas Gachagua's 'Mama Boys' rehabilitation program and switched to giving handouts to youths.
“The so-called empowerment programme today is a cash-handout scam. The Ksh.2,000 they are giving our youth is blood money, a bait to drag them deeper into alcoholism."
