Wiper Patriotic Front Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has declared his readiness to contest the presidency in the 2027 General Election, stating he had shelved his ambitions for 15 years. In other political developments, President William Ruto appointed Bungoma Governor Kenneth Lusaka as his Western region campaign coordinator, placing him at the forefront of high-stakes regional politics. Meanwhile, ahead of President Ruto's tour of Northern Kenya, Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua challenged the president to account for promises made since 2022. Gachagua claims the visit is an early campaign attempt for the 2027 election, rather than a move to address crises like drought and insecurity.
