A video allegedly showing Rigathi Gachagua celebrating the reported death of MP Johana Ngeno has sparked heated debate on social media, with many Kenyans expressing shock and disappointment.
The clip, which has been circulating widely online, triggered mixed reactions from different quarters.
Some social media users questioned whether the former Deputy President could truly celebrate the death of a fellow political leader.
However, according to reports from unverified sources on social media, Pastor Dorcas Rigathi has now responded following the viral clip.
In the alleged statement, she described the situation as “very unfortunate” and painful for their family.
She reportedly defended her husband, claiming that the viral video could have been generated using Artificial Intelligence (AI).
According to the circulating claims, she suggested that the clip was created to tarnish her husband’s reputation and damage their name.
Pastor Dorcas allegedly urged Kenyans to dismiss the video and avoid spreading unverified content. She also reportedly raised concern over the misuse of AI tools, saying such technology can easily be used to mislead the public.
She is also said to have maintained that her husband is a God-fearing man who cannot wish harm upon anyone.
As the debate continues online, many Kenyans are now calling for proper verification of the viral clip before drawing any conclusions
