A typical post picks up 1.1K interactions against 1.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.103%. Measured over 49 original posts, its engagement rate beats 71% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 38K times each, and 2.99% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.44% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 70% of days. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 49 posts sampled, 96% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 22K interactions, about 19x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Rigathi Gachagua's engagement rate beats 71% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 78% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.103%, Rigathi Gachagua sits above the 25th percentile of the 212,349 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.025% to 0.146%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 212,349 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,452 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

  • Its average post runs 462 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    My cousin, Senator @edwinsifuna, congratulations are in order on the launch of your political party today. Democracy must prevail. To those who thought they could stop an idea whose time had come, we are sorry. Your time is up! The launch of your political vehicle, The Equitable Party, marks the real beginning of your journey to national leadership. I encourage you to move with speed to market your new party and identify strong aspirants in your stronghold to get rid of Ruto sycophants and surrogates who have betrayed the electorate and the people of Kenya and our great nation. I am very encouraged that the journey to form the 6th Administration is becoming more defined, as we need a majority of Members of Parliament in the two Houses to prosecute our legislative agenda and save our nation from collapse under this kleptomanic regime so senseless. I appeal to all those who support the candidature of Senator Edwin Sifuna to join his new party and back aspirants for the various positions under the party. Strong political parties are essential for the growth of our democracy as a country. There will be no escape route for this regime! It will be WANTAM and Round ONE! Things are boiling very nicely!

    Bwana IG, I have seen that you have purported to order a thorough investigation into the abduction of Alex Kiprotich, the Associate Editor of the Standard Media Group. That investigation, like all the others you have ordered, will go nowhere because it was done by police officers outside your command. You are clueless about the operations of the National Police Service. I do have more information as to the happenings in the Service than you do. The National Police Service was taken over a long time ago by Mr. Kipchumba Murkomen and Mr. Raymond Omollo, with the concurrence of Mr. William Ruto; orders are directly issued to your DIG, Eliud Langat, and DCI Mohamed Amin. You are just a flower girl leading a shell, and you will be sacrificed at the right time and blamed for the excesses in the Service. Let me bring you up to speed. Mr. Alex Kiprotich was preparing for an assignment in the Mau Forest, where thousands of Mau evictees from the Kipsigis community have been conned out of millions of shillings in compensation money by officials of the National Government Administration under the direction of Mr. Murkomen and Mr. Raymond Omollo. This money has been paid by the duo to their brokers and proxies. Alex was to publish an exposé giving a blow-by-blow account of how the funds have been stolen, leaving the evictees helpless and in anguish. A late-night meeting on Monday evening between Mr. William Ruto and Mr. Kipchumba Murkomen sealed the fate of Mr. Alex Kiprotich, where it was decided that he had to be stopped. The DCI, Mr. Mohamed Amin, was instructed to put Alex under 24-hour surveillance. The DCI assembled a team headed by one Mr. Zachary Kariuki, who, though retired, has been recalled by Amin to coordinate this squad trained in abductions, killings, and cover-ups. This is the team that abducted Alex Kiprotich and was instructed to abandon the earlier plan to eliminate him after the abduction was captured live and provoked public outrage. This team of 60 rogue police killers is responsible for the abduction of businessman Jimmy in Mlolongo, as ordered by DIG Langat, Zizo Abdulaziz, Lawyer Molu, and killed Rachel Wandeto after you and Kipchumba Murkomen visited her in hospital. That is why, even after Mr. William Ruto told Kenyans that the killers of Rachel Wandeto would be arrested, it has not happened and will not happen. Bwana Kanja, before you order investigations into the abduction of Alex, kindly first release the findings of the previous investigations you ordered into the death of Rachel Wandeto, the attack on Witima ACK Church, the attack on Mwiki PCEA Church, the attack on Kariobangi PCEA Church, and the killings and mayhem in Ol Kalou, to name but a few. You have no report to release because no investigations were carried out, and none will be carried out. You cannot investigate your seniors, and police cannot investigate themselves. IPOA is dead, and the rule of law has been suspended. I can see you crying at the International Criminal Court in The Hague next year. |Photos courtesy of SG|

    Happy birthday, my gal! It’s yet another year filled with grace and favour. Two years ago, on a day like today, we celebrated your birthday in shock, having been humiliated and disgraced by a man we had sacrificed everything to make king. Today, as we celebrate your birthday, we thank God that we are a very happy family. Over the past two years, we have received countless blessings from God, as well as inexplicable favour and acceptance from the people of Kenya. As we prepare to travel back home and engage the final gear in the liberation of our country, please accept my assurance that, on a day like today next year, I will throw you the biggest birthday celebration bash ever at the most coveted address in the country. In our 37 years of marriage, I have made you many promises and kept most of them. This is one promise I SHALL honour and MUST honour.

    Dear Kenyans, Tomorrow morning, the Vision 2060 Afro CINEMA LIES will continue at a popular hotel, Mombasa Road. The Afro Cinema will start at 8.00am and End at 1.00pm. Usual upgraded lies, posturing, photohops, and dramatic phone calls; just drama to hoodwink Kenyans. Lunch will be served from the venue. "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time." - President Abraham Lincoln

    Upon my return from the United States, I welcomed the Linda Mwananchi leadership, led by Senator @edwinsifuna , to the Wamunyoro residence. We held a candid and constructive discussion on the liberation of our country and the formation of the Sixth Administration. Wamunyoro has long been a venue for consequential political consultations and deliberations that have helped shape a brighter future for our great country. Today was such a day.

    Mr. William Ruto, I have heard you brag and fallaciously argue that Rtd. President Uhuru Kenyatta did not defeat you when he was President and that he can't defeat you now that he is retired. Put logically, you were elected President despite President Uhuru Kenyatta having been against you. Let me remind you, because memory seems to fail you; You were not elected as President because President Uhuru Kenyatta failed to defeat you. No! President Uhuru Kenyatta did not sufficiently convince me and a majority of Kenyans that you were incapable of leading the country, that you were viciously corrupt, and that you would completely ruin our country in less than three years. Today, you have proven to me and the whole country that President Uhuru was right. Based on that, he has no further role in convincing us that we must get rid of you on 10th August 2027 at the ballot. President Uhuru Kenyatta is not your opponent in this election. You are just trying a bad deflection. Poor tactic Mr. Ruto, but we know you very well. Your opponents are the people of Kenya: the payslip holders whose payslips you have raided, the GenZs whom you have abducted and killed, the Christians whose churches you have defiled, the business people whom you have run out of business, patients who have no medicine and lack medical insurance, parents and students with no access to affordable education, and all those choking under the high cost of living. 55 million Kenyans are your opponents. Have you ever heard of a President hated even by children? Even the worst dictators do better. Your ranking is on another level. These are your real opponents, and you should not confuse them with the shadow of President Uhuru Kenyatta. Be advised that the leaders tasked with the responsibility of removing you from office by Kenyans require no sponsorship. They have clear, and sufficient instructions from the people of Kenya. This is the first presidential election where money is not a factor. Kenyans are so determined to get rid of you that they don't require any inducement. Every morning and evening, I am informed that what you witnessed in Olkalou and your dirty money make you quiver. You have seen nothing yet, Mr. Ruto. Olkalou was just a dress rehearsal for the forthcoming General Election. Kenyans will take your money and vote you out. Have you forgotten the Embu-Nembure weekend ordeal of your fake deputy? Prepare enough bribes for everyone, or no one! The decision to vote you out is settled, and only one matter is outstanding to complete the picture: the identification of a single presidential candidate to take you home. I want to assure you that this is a piece of work in progress, and very soon we shall let you know the man or woman to whom you shall hand over. As you spend money in Nyanza to bribe people to attend your meetings, please appoint a team to start preparing your handover notes. Your fate is sealed; Italians would kindly tell you, "Il tuo destino è segnato!" Finito!

Ranked by total interactions across everything we have tracked for this account, which is a longer history than the 30-day window the rates above use. The multiple compares each post to this account's own median.

Buy or sell Twitter (X) accounts - escrow-protected

PlayerSells is an escrow marketplace for Twitter (X) accounts. Every deal is protected, with no middleman risk.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 1.1K interactions against 1.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.103%. Measured over 49 original posts, its engagement rate beats 71% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 38K times each, and 2.99% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.44% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 70% of days. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 49 posts sampled, 96% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 22K interactions, about 19x its own typical post.

What is Rigathi Gachagua's engagement rate on X?
Rigathi Gachagua (@rigathi) has an engagement rate of 0.103%, based on the median interactions across 49 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,104,104 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.103%, Rigathi Gachagua sits above the 25th percentile of the 212,349 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @rigathi have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 71% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @rigathi post?
Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.73 posts per day across the measured window.

Keep going
