UDA Coalition Leaders Clash Over 2027 Gubernatorial Endorsements

Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro has publicly apologized to Kenyans for his absence during the crucial Finance Bill vote and requested three to four weeks to determine his future political direction, stating he is no longer supporting the current government. National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula has been accused by fellow UDA politicians of favouring Susan Nakhumicha for the Trans Nzoia governor's seat in 2027, sparking an uproar within the ruling coalition. At the same time, Senate Speaker Amason Kingi and Sports Cabinet Secretary Salim Mvurya are spearheading a unity campaign in the Coast region to rally support for President William Ruto's re-election in 2027. These developments highlight deepening fractures within the Ruto administration as key allies distance themselves while others work to consolidate support ahead of the next general election.
