Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria on Thursday accused Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua of setting him up against President William Ruto.

The CS while taking to his social media accounts, alleged how Gachagua mobilised a team to set up fake accounts using his name.

According to Kuria, the Deputy President's team would then go ahead to attack the Head of State using the alleged fake accounts.

CS Kuria also claimed that the DP was not only fighting the president but also some of Ruto's close allies including Majority Leader in the National Assembly Kimani Ichung'wah and Kiharu Member of Parliament, Ndindi Nyoro.

The Deputy President was also accused of staging political wrangles against Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja.

“Dear Team Rigathi Gachagua. Stop it! You have set up a whole unit to do paddy accounts and fake accounts in my name to fight President Ruto, Governor Sakaja, Hon Ichung'wah, Hon Ndindi Nyoro etc.,” CS Kuria alleged.

“Please! I don't have any problem with you. You are doing more harm than good to your boss,” he added.

It is not the first time the CS has hit out at the Deputy President. In his recent comments, Moses Kuria publicly lectured Gachagua for attempting to interfere with the Mt Kenya caucus dubbed Limuru III.

Kuria who spoke during an interview on Citizen TV, expressed his disappointment by Gachagua's attempts to convince Martha Karua and Jeremiah Kioni to change their stance on holding the Limuru III meeting.

According to CS Kuria, the second in command allegedly invited Karua and Kioni to his Karen residence to try and convince them to drop their plans of convening the Mt Kenya meeting.

“He is my boss but I don't agree with him because we were elected by the people to solve their issues," CS Kuria remarked on Gachagua's sentiments to Karua and Kioni.

“Solutions of this country have no forwarding address that If you have a problem you go to a specific person, this country has a lot of problems. Who are you?” Kuria questioned as he lectured the DP.
