In modified images, Kenyans show Rigathi Gachagua (Riggy G) cowering behind a window and curtains during King Charles III and Queen Camilla’s visit.
The forum’s goal was to improve ties between Kenya and other partners of the European Union (EU).
According to a statement from the DP office, “The Deputy President has completed his very fruitful and successful visit to Belgium and Germany where he inked key deals, especially on coffee.”
Gachagua and Java Coffee Company in Brussels, Belgium, inked an agreement for the latter to buy more than 700,000 kg of coffee from smallholder growers, mostly women.

Michael: Why would someone photoshop Riggy G like that with President William Ruto, Rachael Ruto, Musalia Mudavadi, King Charles III and Queen Camilla at State House like that? Whoever photoshoped Rigg G like that needs to be stopped and arrested immediately!
This is Totally Unacceptable.
Inid: Why would someone photoshop Riggy G at that spot.
Let’s have respect for elders and leaders please.
Although the four-day trip has been billed as an opportunity to look to the future and build on the cordial modern-day ties between London and Nairobi, the legacy of decades of British colonial rule looms large.
It is the 74-year-old British head of state’s first visit to an African and Commonwealth nation since ascending the throne in September last year on the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
Under rainy skies, the royal couple were given a ceremonial red-carpet welcome by Kenyan President William Ruto, who has hailed the visit as a “significant opportunity to enhance collaboration” in various fields.
The British High Commission said the tour, which follows trips to Germany and France earlier this year, will “spotlight the strong and dynamic partnership between the UK and Kenya”.
