Political activity is increasing as Kenya heads toward the 2027 general elections. President William Ruto is seeking another term while opposition leaders form new alliances nationwide now.
Political analyst Mutahi Ngunyi has stirred debate after making claims about hidden influence inside the united opposition camp. He shared his view during recent online discussions publicly.
Ngunyi alleged that former President Uhuru Kenyatta is acting as a mole within opposition ranks. The claim points to moves shaping leadership choices in the coalition lately.
He linked the allegation to changes seen in Azimio la Umoja leadership structures. These shifts include support for Kalonzo Musyoka in top coalition roles recently announced publicly.
The analyst also mentioned the appointment of Caroli Omondi as secretary general. He said such decisions weaken the Orange Democratic Movement party position inside the alliance structure.
Ngunyi argued that these steps could split opposition groups into competing camps. Division may affect joint strategies for the coming elections and public messaging across regions nationally.
He further suggested a plan to present a former cabinet secretary as Jubilee candidate. Such a move would reshape alliances and contest dynamics in the 2027 race.
At the same time opposition rallies under the Linda Mwananchi banner continue across the country. Leaders use these forums to present unity and test public response levels.
The comments have added new debate about trust inside opposition partnerships. Observers say such claims reflect growing tension as parties prepare for long campaigns ahead nationally soon.
