In a pointed political outburst, impeached Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has accused President William Ruto and his successor, Deputy President Kithure Kindiki, of orchestrating a campaign to undermine his public rallies in Meru County. Gachagua alleged that a covert financial operation was executed to mobilize hostile youth groups aimed at discrediting his political presence.
Speaking at a local forum, Gachagua detailed claims that Ksh3 million was disbursed at the President’s direction, with Kindiki acting as the conduit, delivering funds to allied MPs who were instructed to stage crowd-based disruptions. The objective, according to Gachagua, was clear: embarrass and politically isolate him as he attempts to revive his influence after impeachment.
According to Gachagua, lawmakers from Meru County were offered financial incentives to organize hecklers and stage-managed dissenters, turning what were intended to be consultative meetings into confrontational spectacles. He maintained that these acts were not spontaneous but strategically crafted through political engineering at the highest levels of government.
The impeachment, which removed Gachagua from his position earlier this year, did little to dull his voice within Mount Kenya’s political narrative. His latest allegations signal an intensifying rivalry between the former allies-turned-adversaries, threatening to further fracture the ruling coalition.
The emergence of Deputy President Kindiki as a loyal executor of Ruto’s political will has drawn attention, particularly among Mt. Kenya constituents who remain divided on leadership direction post-Gachagua. Kindiki, often viewed as a quieter but methodical political actor, has yet to comment on the allegations, but insiders suggest the administration is keen on neutralizing Gachagua’s populist resurgence.
This confrontation adds fuel to an already volatile Mt. Kenya political landscape, where succession battles, regional loyalty, and national ambition are intertwining rapidly. With Gachagua positioning himself as the voice of resistance against what he calls “state-sponsored betrayal,” the political ground appears increasingly unstable.
Whether these accusations are a desperate plea for relevance or a revelation of internal sabotage tactics, one thing is clear: the ruling establishment is not as united as it projects. And with 2027 already casting its long shadow, this fallout could reshape alliances sooner than expected.
