Kenyan Deputy President on Monday confessed about leading a drunkard life before he was saved from his woes by Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Rigathi who is currently leading the fight against illicit brew in his Central Kenya backyard said he used to abuse alcohol back in the day.
“I only quit drinking after I had an encounter with Jesus Christ and became a born-again Christian,” said Rigathi while addressing a conference in Naikuru.
“The President, Prof Kithure Kindiki and the rest of us have no problem with alcohol. I must admit I used to drink a lot before I got saved,” Gachagua said.
“My life has changed a lot since I quit alcohol,” said Gachagua.
“I am a deputy president because I quit drinking. I invite those who drink to consider dropping it and maybe things will get better,” he said.
The DP cautioned police who run bar businesses as it is a hindrance to government’s war against alcoholism.
