Chaos erupted after goons allegedly interrupted a church service at PCEA Mwiki in Kasarani on Sunday April 6, 2025, where former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua was in attendance.
Several gunshots were fired during the incident as chaos filled the air in Nairobi’s Kasarani area.
Reports indicate that Gachagua’s bodyguards fired into the air to disperse hundreds of youths who had stormed the church.
This was after the youths gained entry into the church and broke chairs used by the congregants during the Sunday service.
The standoff forced the organisers of the event to momentarily stop the service as some of the congregants ran for safety.
During the standoff, a vehicle belonging to Gachagua was stoned, with the windows shattered, according to images and videos shared on social media.
