Nairobi gubernatorial aspirant Tony Gachoka has sharply criticized President William Ruto's administration and opposition leader Raila Odinga, alleging a collapse of democracy, rampant corruption, and betrayal of the Kenyan people. He claims elected leaders have prioritized personal political gain over public interest, leading to widespread disillusionment.

• Gachoka stated the National Dialogue Committee (NADCO) talks, intended for structured opposition, were hijacked into "co-operation talks," creating a "broad-based government that sidelined citizens."
• He accused Raila Odinga of repeatedly betraying Kenyans through deals, weakening public trust in opposition politics over the last 25 years.
• Gachoka specifically cited the aborted impeachment of Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja as an example of political deals undermining accountability and described Nairobi County as "by far the most corrupt and most mismanaged county."
