A church service at Witima ACK Church in Othaya, Nyeri County, attended by former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, was on Sunday disrupted after police lobbed tear gas, causing panic among congregants.

Gachagua later took to social media to condemn the incident, alleging that security officers also fired live bullets as they moved in to disperse worshippers. He further claimed that his vehicles were set ablaze during the chaos.
