Rigathi Gachagua’s lawyer has proposed that he should consider forming a strategic alliance with Kalonzo Musyoka to challenge President William Ruto in the 2027 elections.
This recommendation reflects the shifting political landscape in Kenya, where coalition-building has historically been crucial for electoral success. By uniting forces with Musyoka, Gachagua could potentially consolidate support from various voter bases disillusioned with Ruto’s leadership.
“We want to plan ourselves and urge Gachagua to look for other friends we form government in 2027. The incoming government will be under Gachagua and those friends. We cannot forget Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, whose MPs and senators voted against Gachagua’s impeachment. Gachagua should look for him and form government. We must take Ruto home,” said Njiru.
As the 2027 election approaches, the effectiveness of this potential alliance will depend on various factors, including public sentiment, the state of the economy, and the overall political climate. Both Gachagua and Musyoka would need to address their respective constituencies to build a robust coalition capable of mounting a serious challenge to Ruto’s administration.
This strategic move could redefine the electoral dynamics and set the stage for a highly competitive election cycle in Kenya.
