Speaking on Saturday in Nyeri County during Pastor Dorcas Rigathi’s ordination as a reverend, Gachagua said that although their political exit brought them peace, it also limited Dorcas’ ability to support vulnerable young men battling addiction and depression.
Gachagua explained that while serving as deputy president, Dorcas led an extensive rehabilitation programme that targeted struggling boys, especially those trapped in alcoholism and drug abuse.
According to him, her influence and reach reduced significantly after he was removed from office.
He noted that this slowdown has affected many boys who relied on the initiative. He expressed disappointment that the fight against illicit alcohol, especially in Central Kenya, has also weakened, saying the problem has resurfaced and pushed many young men back into addiction.
Despite the setbacks, Gachagua praised his wife as a devoted servant of God whose compassion and commitment continue to inspire their family and community. He described her as the pillar of their home, a woman who has upheld family values and dedicated herself to ministry even during difficult times.
During the ceremony, he also thanked their children for supporting Dorcas’ calling, saying the family remains united behind her work and mission.
Pastor Dorcas’ ordination marked an important milestone in her ministry journey, with Gachagua calling her a beacon of hope whose service has shaped many lives.
He maintained that while the impeachment brought unexpected challenges, their family remains strong, grateful, and committed to continuing the work they started.
