Political commentator Mr. Makau Mutua who also doubles up as Rt. Hon. Raila Odinga’s point man, took to his official Facebook page and published a post, expressing his worries over the plans that ousted deputy president Rigathi Gachagua could be drafting ahead of 2027 presidential elections. Mutua says, something has to be done so that Gachagua is not given space to manoeuvre especially in Mt. Kenya region on matters politics and leadership as early as now before the next general elections.
Mutua says, he’s seeing a possibility of Gachagua isolating GEMA communities from the rest of Kenya come 2027. To Mutua, already Gachagua has started to play around with the mentality of Mt. Kenya people, this is after the process of removing him from holding office of the deputy president was made successful.
In his caption, he says, “Kenyans ought to be very wary of ex-DP Gachagua. He’s actively stoking resentment in Mt Kenya to create a siege mentality. He could isolate the GEMA communities from the rest of Kenya. As a nation in embryo, Kenya can’t afford such heightened ethnic polarization.” Mutua wrote.
Initially, Mutua thought Gachagua has no impact on matters politics of Mt. Kenya region but as time goes by, he’s now seeing Gachagua as a dangerous strategist given that he’s no longer in good terms with president William Ruto. After his removal from office, Gachagua returned to his people where currently he’s meeting with them for some Political discussions.
This information has been highlighted on his official Facebook page. Makau Mutua.
