Rigathi Gachagua, leader of the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP), has dismissed President William Ruto's assertion that his coalition "must win" the 2027 General Election, labeling it "wishful thinking."

• Gachagua's remarks followed an alleged attack on his convoy in Nakuru County, which DCP claimed was an assassination attempt.
• The DCP leader cited the opposition's landslide victory in the recent Ol Kalou by-election as evidence against Ruto's confidence.
• Gachagua accused Ruto of lying to Kenyans and questioned his authority to demand a win, stating, "He must persuade the people of Kenya that they can trust him."

The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) is reportedly in a state of panic ahead of the planned Linda Mwananchi rallies in Homa Bay.

• Party stalwarts, including chairperson Gladys Wanga, are strategizing to undermine the rally's success.
• The rallies are scheduled for Sunday.
• Efforts are being made to urge residents to boycott the event.
