Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's official account on Twitter with over half-a-million followers has been unverified.

The actual reason for the account's unverification isn't clear yet but this has happened amid Twitter going ahead to commercialize the blue check mark

Earlier, Twitter announced plans to remove the verified check-mark status of 'notable' verified accounts before Elon Musk's takeover, unless they have subscribed to Twitter Blue or the business-focused Twitter Verified Organizations plan.

The only individual Twitter users who will have verified blue checkmarks are those paying for Twitter Blue.
