Yesterday, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua was reportedly attacked while attending a church service, allegedly by a group of Goans.
Some speculate the attackers were hired mercenaries sent by powerful forces within the government, but investigations remain unclear, leaving the truth shrouded in mystery.
The incident sparked widespread outrage, with many Kenyans expressing deep disappointment in the Kenya Kwanza regime.
A wave of online and on-ground reactions followed, with some citizens vowing to vote the government out in 2027. The narrative is quickly shifting, especially in the Mt. Kenya region.
In Murang’a County, the area’s Woman Representative—once a staunch supporter of Kenya Kwanza—shocked residents by switching sides.
During her address, she passionately declared her support for Gachagua, stating, “Riggy, nakupenda kama nyama,” a popular expression of deep affection.
She also rallied the crowd, saying they were ready to “take Kasongo home 2027,” signaling a push to remove President Ruto from office.
As political temperatures rise, the recent attack could mark a turning point in the relationship between Gachagua and the ruling coalition, as well as reshape the 2027 political landscape.
