Renowned radio and TV host Eric Latiff has dismissed former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s criticism of President William Ruto’s administration, calling it hypocritical. Latiff argued that Gachagua was once a key part of the very system he is now attacking and only turned against it after his impeachment.
During a discussion on his show, Latiff questioned whether Gachagua had suddenly become a champion of good governance after losing his position. He pointed out that while serving as Deputy President, Gachagua defended the government’s actions, yet now, after being removed, he claims the system is flawed.
Latiff challenged the narrative that Gachagua’s criticism was genuine, suggesting that his change of stance was motivated by personal grievances rather than a sincere commitment to reform. He noted that leaders should be consistent in their principles, rather than switching sides based on their political fortunes.
His remarks have sparked debate, with some agreeing that Gachagua’s attacks on the government lack credibility, while others argue that his experience as an insider gives him insight into the administration’s failures.
