Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has criticized the Kenyan government for its slow response in prosecuting individuals involved in recent attacks on churches, calling for immediate action and stressing the need to protect places of worship.

• Gachagua highlighted attacks on PCEA Mwiki, Kariobangi, and ACK Wetima churches, drawing parallels to the tragic 2007 Kiambaa church attack during post-election violence.
• He demanded that once investigations are complete, files concerning the attacks be forwarded to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for prosecution.
• Gachagua asserted that an attack on a place of worship constitutes a "terrorist act" and those responsible should face legal consequences, threatening that the church cannot forgive the government until prosecutions occur.
• He urged the Inspector General to explain why alleged attackers remain free, while former Public Service Cabinet Secretary Justin Muturi also emphasized constitutional freedoms of worship and conscience.
