Gachagua: I had promised to support Ruto up to 2032; now I will be president in 2027 - October 2026

Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has announced he had promised to support President William Ruto until 2032 but now intends to become president in 2027, marking a significant shift in political allegiance. Gachagua dismissed Ruto's efforts to divide the opposition coalition, stating it will remain united until the 2027 general election. He also claimed the Ol Kalou Contest was a contest between Ruto and himself, not other candidates, and accused Ruto of having an outburst at a journalist because Gachagua had foiled Ruto's US Mrima Hill minerals deal. Vihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi and Nominated MP John Osotsi both defended Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna after President Ruto criticized him as "empty minded" and a fool, with Osotsi characterizing Ruto's remarks as erratic.
