"I'm amazed that our creative young people have given me a nickname. They have looked at my two names Rigathi Gachagua for something that sounds easy and melodious and called me Riggy G. I don't think it's a bad name."

The sunglasses he was wearing attracted the attention of young Kenyans online and many equated his look to that of characters in the famous Narcos TV series.
