According to Gachagua, the said politicians had partnered with others from the Mt Kenya region to ill-advise the Head of State on critical political issues ahead of 2027
“There are politicians from Rift Valley who have partnered with others in the Mt Kenya region and have decided to plan 2027 politics. The problem is a few leaders from this region (Rift Valley) who are ill-advising the President on Mt Kenya politics.”
However, Deputy President denied reports of a possible fallout between him and his boss and promised to stand behind him and rally his community to do so till 2032.
“The people of Mt Kenya have no problem, we are good people, we promised to support Ruto and we did just as we promised. We are honest and straightforward people, the only thing we hate is betrayal.”
This comes after reports from within the circles of government claimed that various powerful individuals are considering Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro for the Deputy President position in 2027.
This also comes days after Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru slammed the DP, accusing him of personalising the office and not allowing anyone to talk or dream about being a DP in future.
