According to Dorcas Rigathi, the wife of Rigathi Gachagua, the vice president-elect, every wife should do something unique for her spouse.
Bishop Dorcas mentioned in an interview with KTN that her unique gesture is to hand iron Gachagua’s clothing.
“For me, for the last 35 years I have been married, I iron for my husband. When he goes out there if the shirt is creased or he has opposite sock. Because I don’t know about these men but they have a thing with sock. If you don’t look after it, even a shirt if you don’t iron it he’ll go with it,” she said.
According to Dorcas, the general public frequently doesn’t care if she is busy or not; instead, they just want to see a spouse who is well-cared for.
After graduating from Kenyatta University and Alliance Girls High School, the professional career of this alumna began as a banker, from which she later retired to take a directorship in the family firm.
She eventually gave up her company to devote herself fully to the church as a bishop.
Dorcas claimed that after her father passed away, she and other members of her immediate family were made to spend their early years sleeping in chicken enclosures.
Gachagua admitted his net worth to be Sh800 million, and the pair has since developed a multimillion dollar business empire. They are also blessed with two children.

Their youngest child is a doctor, and their oldest son, who is 31 years old, works as a computer software engineer at a nearby bank.
She claimed that in her capacity as the vice president’s wife, she would wish to devote herself entirely to promoting the welfare of boys and young men.
“I have seen how the boychild’s life has really changed. When I go out there to the shopping centre I find they are drunk, and others on the street,” she noted.
Dorcas noted that when it comes to welfare and care, boys and girls should be given the same priority.
