Ruto fires fresh attacks at Gachagua in Homa Bay - March 2026

President William Ruto campaigned in Homa Bay while continuing his public criticism of Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, accusing him of promoting tribalism and stating he should not be given any leadership role in the country. The remarks suggest ongoing political friction within the Kenya Kwanza administration. Kenya's opposition has issued a bold challenge to President Ruto, daring him to arrest Deputy President Gachagua. Meanwhile, Kenyan church leaders including Bishop Kamomoe have issued stern warnings to political leaders, urging them to abandon divisive politics that threaten national unity, while Archbishop Kakala has called for the dissolution of the National Cohesion and Integration Commission, alleging it has allowed hate speech to proliferate.
