Rigathi Gachagua went off at a Nairobi church service about how the opposition coalition is staying locked in for 2027, and he made it clear they'll put up one candidate against Ruto when the time comes. The ex-deputy president called out what he sees as government schemes to split up opposition leaders, specifically mentioning attempts to pull Kalonzo Musyoka over to their side. He said those efforts flopped hard.
Gachagua leaned into the family angle between himself and Kalonzo, saying their bond runs deeper than political calculations and that Mt Kenya plus Ukambani communities are finally working together after years of division. He talked up a deal where the Democratic Congress Party and Wiper would back each other in their strong areas to sweep seats. The former DP threw shade at ODM for getting cozy with the government, but said the door's still open if they want to link up with the opposition instead.
