The recent meeting between President William Ruto and former President Uhuru Kenyatta has sparked a variety of responses from key political figures. Among those reacting are Senator Methu Muhia, Senator Karungo wa Thangwa, Lawyer Ndegwa Njiru, and Githunguri MP Gathoni Wamuchomba. Their reactions reflect a mix of skepticism, and cryptic messages, further devalue the ongoing political discourse in Kenya.
Senator Methu
Senator Methu Muhia shared a cryptic message on social media, posting an image of a broken cup that had been mended but still showed visible cracks. This metaphor suggests that while efforts have been made to repair relationships or situations, underlying issues remain. Methu’s message has prompted various interpretations and speculations about its meaning and the senator’s stance on the meeting.
Lawyer Ndegwa Njiru
Prominent lawyer Ndegwa Njiru voiced his strong opposition following the meeting. In a striking declaration, Njiru stated, “Not even UHURU will take Mt. Kenya to RUTO….Misiri tulitoka.” The phrase “Misiri tulitoka,” which translates to “we left Egypt,” is a powerful metaphor implying that the people of Mt. Kenya have moved on from past political affiliations and will not be persuaded back. Njiru’s statement underscores his belief that the region will not support Ruto despite Kenyatta’s involvement.
Gathoni Wamuchomba
Githunguri MP Gathoni Wamuchomba took a more enigmatic approach, posting a series of cryptic messages. She shared an image of a broken clay pot, a metaphor that can be interpreted in various ways. Wamuchomba’s messages, laden with symbolism, have prompted speculation about her stance on the meeting.
Karungo wa Thangwa
Kiambu Senator Karungo wa Thangwa also reacted with a cryptic message. He tweeted: “I’m not boarding!!!!” This statement, accompanied by significant engagement on social media, suggests a strong refusal to align with the outcomes of the meeting. Thangwa’s defiant stance adds another layer of complexity to the political reactions surrounding the event.
The varied responses from these political figures have sparked widespread discussion among Kenyans. While some see the meeting as a positive step towards political inclusivity and national progress, others remain skeptical about its long-term effects. The mix of support, caution, and cryptic criticism reflects the complex dynamics within Kenyan politics.
The meeting between President William Ruto and former President Uhuru Kenyatta has undoubtedly become a focal point of political discourse in the country. With reactions from key figures like Senator Methu, Lawyer Ndegwa Njiru, Senator Karungo wa Thangwa and Githunguri MP Gathoni Wamuchomba, it is clear that the event has significant implications for the country’s political and social landscape. As the public continues to speculate and debate, the true impact of this meeting remains to be seen.
