In the wake of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s removal from office, Kibwezi West Member of Parliament, Mwengi Mutuse, has opened up about the political and personal gains he received, courtesy of President William Ruto’s intervention. Mutuse, who has remained vocal about his loyalty to Ruto’s administration, shed light on the rewards during a recent address, offering rare insight into the changing political dynamics within the Kenya Kwanza government.
Speaking candidly at a public event, Mutuse detailed how his fortunes improved significantly after Gachagua’s ouster. Without holding back, the MP quoted specific amounts of support and opportunities extended to him by President Ruto. While the exact figures remain speculative, insiders close to the legislator suggest that these benefits include increased allocations for constituency development, access to new political alliances, and personal advancements in government initiatives.
“The President rewarded me because I stood firmly with his administration at a critical time. The changes we are seeing today are proof that loyalty and hard work are recognized,” Mutuse reportedly stated.
President Ruto’s reshuffling of key allies and strategic political maneuvers has been a focal point since Rigathi Gachagua’s controversial removal. Ruto, known for his calculated approach to rewarding loyalists, appears to have expanded his political base by elevating MPs like Mwengi Mutuse, who have proven to be strong supporters of his vision.
