Embattled Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has asked his detractors to allow him to work and complete his five-year term as talks of his impeachment gather pace.

The DP, who toured Kirinyaga, Embu, and Meru counties, described criticism against him by a section of leaders as unjustified.

"We are asking our detractors to allow us to work for Kenyans. Leave me alone. Let us work for Kenyans and stop the high-temperature politics. We were given a five-year contract by Kenyans. There are many stalled projects that need attention and completion," said Mr Gachagua.
