Nairobi — Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has convened a consultative meeting on Tackling Alcoholism in Central Kenya.

The forum to be held at the Kenya School of Governance is a follow-up of last week's meeting he hosted at his Iruri residence which was attended by all elected, government, and religious leaders from Murang'a, Kirinyaga, Nyeri, Kiambu, and Nyandarua counties.
