Former Deputy President and Democracy for Citizens (DCP) party leader Rigathi Gachagua has officially launched the party’s second satellite office in the United States, as part of his ongoing political revival and outreach mission. The latest office, based in Boston, Massachusetts, was unveiled on Monday, July 21, 2025, just a week after the inauguration of DCP’s first diaspora office in Seattle, Washington. The move marks a significant milestone in Gachagua’s efforts to consolidate support among Kenyans living abroad.

In a statement released by the DCP leadership shortly after the launch, the party reaffirmed its vision of building an inclusive and responsive political movement that incorporates voices from both within and beyond Kenya’s borders. “We are proud to announce that our second satellite office in the USA has been officially opened by our Party Leader,” read the statement. “Our commitment to listen to all Kenyans and restore our national heritage remains firm. Thank you to the Kenyan community in Boston for your support.”

Gachagua emphasized that the new office will act as a critical engagement point for Kenyans in the Northeastern United States, enabling the party to maintain consistent dialogue with the diaspora. He noted that DCP is seeking to build a globally conscious movement that recognizes the value, voice, and contributions of Kenyans abroad. “This is more than a political gesture—it is a declaration that no Kenyan, no matter how far from home, will be left out of the national conversation,” he said during the Boston launch.

This latest expansion forms part of Gachagua’s broader two-month US tour, which began on July 9, 2025. The tour, his first international mission since being ousted as Deputy President in October 2024, is widely seen as a strategic move to relaunch his political career. Gachagua has framed the tour as a “listening and healing mission,” aimed at reconnecting with Kenyans in the diaspora, rebuilding trust, and discussing the challenges currently facing the country.

The Boston office launch closely followed the opening of the DCP’s North Pacific Chapter office in Seattle on July 14, 2025. At that launch, Gachagua emphasized the importance of grounding the party’s operations in regions where the Kenyan diaspora is most active. “This office is a symbol of unity and engagement. It will help foster stronger links with our brothers and sisters in the Northwest Pacific region of North America,” he stated.

Beyond political speeches, Gachagua has used these engagements to interact with professionals, students, business leaders, and youth in the diaspora. He has called for renewed patriotism, greater civic participation, and transparency in governance back home. “We must rebuild Kenya together—those at home and those abroad,” he told a crowd in Boston.

DCP officials have hinted at plans to open additional offices in allthe  cities such as Dallas, Atlanta, and Minneapolis before the end of the tour. With growing interest and warm receptions from diaspora communities, Gachagua’s political resurgence is taking shape on foreign soil—laying the groundwork for what appears to be a calculated return to Kenya’s political center stage.
