Mr Gachagua wants to wait before telling people about his new party. He picked May 2025 as the time to share his news. He worries someone might try to stop his plans if he talks about them today.
He knows other people want to form new parties. These people might want to split up their area by asking different leaders to run for president. Mr. Gachagua remembers this happened in 1992 when Mr. Moi won because Mr. Matiba and Mr. Kibaki ran at the same time.
Mr Gachagua visited Ms Martha Karua at her home in Gichugu. He went there because he needed help to win his big fight. He thinks Ms Karua stands up strong for their area. She made him feel welcome when he came. He promised to help her start her party again.
The wise older people told Mr Gachagua to bring everyone together. He listened to them. When he starts his new party, it will look different from his old one. It will not use yellow colors or have pictures of wheelbarrows.
Mr Gachagua lost his job at his old party, UDA. He plans to leave that party soon and wants to make sure he tells everyone when the time comes.
