Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has come out to defend Trade Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria against calls to have him sacked.

Speaking during the funeral of Field Marshal Muthoni Kirima, who was laid to rest in her home in Ihithe, Nyeri County, Mr Gachagua said he was willing to talk to all leaders for the sake of the people, and would work towards consolidating the central Kenya vote ahead of the next General Election.
