A United States-based Kenyan content creator who bears an uncanny resemblance to former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has shared a celebratory video showing off his new black Jeep Wrangler. The viral clip surfaced just days after the creator met the politician during his tour of the United States.
Cyrus Kinuthia Ndung'u, widely known online as "Riggy G Junior" or "Gachagua Mdogo", posted a video filmed in a residential parking lot. In the selfie-style clip, he danced beside the vehicle while gesturing proudly toward the SUV.
