Gachagua Alleges Officers in Mutiso Murder Hiding in Uganda - August 2026

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua made claims that two officers linked to the Mutiso murder are hiding in Uganda. These allegations emerged as part of a broader accountability statement questioning President William Ruto's tenure. A fact-check revealed several inaccuracies in Gachagua's claims regarding NSSF remittances, fuel price increases, procurement tenders, national debt, and investigation report releases. Allies of President Ruto fiercely rebutted Gachagua's claims about corruption and security within the Kenya Kwanza administration. The controversy unfolded amid a scathing critique by Gachagua that the Kenya Kwanza government failed to deliver on its 2022 campaign promises over the past four years.
