Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has rubbished the Mt Kenya Kingpin Battle as the Ndindi Nyoro debate heats up with some of the Mt Kenya legislatures proposing Ndindi Nyoro for the 2027 DP seat.
According to Gachagua, the Ndindi Nyoro debate is a bigger plot to devide the Mt. Kenya region. He termed the people fueling that debate as the enemies of the region that should not be given a chance.
“Those scheming to divide the region should know that the people of Mt Kenya are intelligent and are aware of what is happening. Those seeking to divide us are enemies of the region.”

Speaking at Kiambu Golf Club on Saturday, the DP said that elections were over and it’s time to work for the people. He urged the leaders of the region to be united and avoid decisive politics that might cause the region’s high stakes in the national government.
“Elections are over, let us close the debate on who voted where because nobody was wrong in making his/her political choice. Let us not remind people where they voted because that is null.”
“President William Ruto and I decided to move on and unite the people. The region is united behind President William Ruto; the people want development and a conducive environment for their businesses.”
However, the Kiharu MP has avoided the Mt. Kenya supremacy debate since the onset of the debate. Therefore signalling an unclear path ahead.
