Gachagua launches attacks against government threatening tax boycott campaign - June 2026

Deputy President Gachagua has launched strong criticism against the government, hinting at a potential tax boycott campaign. This comes as matatu operators across the nation are holding a strike protesting escalating fuel prices. Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has responded by accusing Gachagua, the former Deputy President, of fanning ethnic divisions for political advantage ahead of 2027. The political tensions are further heightened by widespread disruptions from the matatu strike, which has also impacted newspaper delivery as reported by the Sunday Standard Newspaper.
