Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua returned to Kenya from a United States tour, greeted by a large and enthusiastic crowd at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).

• His arrival on Thursday afternoon caused significant security and traffic disruptions along the Mombasa Highway and the Expressway.
• He was received by a delegation including DCP Deputy Leader Cleophas Malala and Naivasha MP Jayne Kihara.
• Hundreds of supporters thronged the airport, leading police to erect barricades, though the party had formally notified police of plans for a peaceful procession to Kamukunji Grounds.
