With the birds chirping and a distant roar of a resident lion within the Mt Kenya Conservancy cutting through the crisp air, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua took early morning steps to retrace a journey made decades ago by his parents.

Around him, the morning mist clung to every living thing, emphasizing nature's authority and power over all. This was the second day of a series of treks up Mt Kenya that have become part of a daily routine for the Deputy President.

"This mountain has a healing effect on people," the DP says, as he carefully steps over the nooks and crannies of the narrow trail. Jumping over protruding roots, pebbles and rocks.
