The couple have known each other since the 80s. In the past, Pastor Dorcas shared how she met with Gachagua.
At the time of their meeting, she was going through a lot and was contemplating suicide.
“My mother was in distress. I was in the university and I was contemplating suicide. Marriage was the last thing on my mind. On a visit to Kabarnet Gardens, I ran to President Moi because I wanted his security to shoot me dead. Thankfully, the President lent me an ear. We met at the University. Riggy G came into my life in the ’80s, on June 17, 1987, and there were these trips we used to go and see President Moi at Kabarnet Gardens,”” she opened up to Rev. Cathy Kiuna in the past.
“My friend told me to accompany her to Kabarnet Gardens and I saw a good opportunity. I decided I would go with them and guess who was writing the names? Riggy G!” she added.
She further confessed that shge was smitten with Riggy G at first sight.
“I thought he was interesting because he was wearing a brown suit with a brown tie with some stripes and he said hello as I went inside.”
