A political step by former president Mwai Kibaki set the stage for Rigathi Gachagua to rise in government.
While it was former president Daniel Moi that gave Gachagua a chance to serve in the government, it was Kibaki that created the opportunity for him to get the right connections and rise in the bureaucracy.
Like William Ruto, the man who will be his boss, Gachagua built his profile during the last 10 years of the Kanu government.
