Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has renewed his attack on the government's Vision 2060 initiative, urging focus on immediate economic and security issues instead of long-term development plans.

• Gachagua criticized the Vision 2060 initiative, calling it a distraction from pressing concerns like the high cost of living, agricultural sector struggles, and insecurity.
• Key issues highlighted include the need to protect local rice farmers from imports, concerns over poor quality fertilizer affecting maize crops, and the impact of a 0.8 percent tea levy.
• Gachagua also raised alarm over the closure of the New KCC processing plant in Nyahururu, the resurgence of illicit alcohol, and preparedness for anticipated El Niño rains.
• Politically, he rejected alleged plans to amend the Constitution to replace the presidential system with a parliamentary model.
