Gachagua urges Gen Z to obtain IDs and register as voters

Former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua has urged Kenyan youth, commonly referred to as Gen Z, to obtain national identification cards and register as voters as part of the preparations for the 2027 general elections.

Speaking on Sunday November 10, 2024 at the Priesthood Fellowship Church in Kahawa West, Nairobi, Gachagua emphasized the importance of voter registration, adding that it was the only way to ensure election of the best leaders in the country.

At the same time, Gachagua and other leaders present, expressed dissatisfaction with President William Ruto’s administration.

The former DP also encouraged parents to advise their Gen-Z children to obtain IDs and register to vote, emphasizing the importance of participating in elections for purposes of shaping the leadership of the country.

Additionally, he urged his supporters to remain calm, assuring that despite being sidelined, he has met with religious leaders, businesspeople, and professionals to discuss future plans.

 “We will tell you what we have discussed at the right time, so that you can also tell us what you think, ensuring we never find ourselves in such a hole again,” said Gachagua.

His sentiments were echoed by KANU national chairman Gideon Moi, who was speaking during a church service at AIC Church in Nakuru on Sunday.

Moi noted that Kenyan youth are the majority and should use their numbers to determine the leadership of the country in the 2027 elections.

The former Baringo Senator who was part of the election observers in Botswana, urged the Kenyan youth to learn from the youth in Botswana by registering as voters and voting wisely in the 2027 elections.

“In Botswana, youth did a great job during the elections. They removed the president and other powerful politicians from power, by turning out in large numbers and voting for leaders of their choice,” said Moi.

He added that the Botswana youth were united and that is how they managed to consolidate their votes, without basing on their tribal or ethnic backgrounds.
