Activist Morara Kebaso warned Kenyans against ethnic voting patterns before the 2027 elections. He argued that tribal allegiances would guarantee President William Ruto another term while benefiting political elites. Kebaso stated that ordinary voters would suffer the most from such decisions. Opposition leaders like Rigathi Gachagua, Kalonzo Musyoka, and Fred Matiang'i plan to unite against Ruto. However, former Chief Justice David Maraga's presidential bid could split opposition votes.

Kebaso emphasized that regional kingpins exploit ethnic mobilization to secure parliamentary seats before negotiating profitable deals. He urged citizens to abandon tribal politics and focus on policy-based campaigns. The activist believes genuine change requires voters to reject ethnic loyalty in favor of accountability. Martha Karua's refusal to serve as anyone's running mate may further divide opposition forces. Kebaso's statements highlight Kenya's persistent struggle with tribal politics since independence.
