Speaking at a public rally in Isiolo yesterday, Nyakundi said Uhuru should allow the current government to focus on development and service delivery instead of engaging in political attacks. “Uhuru Kenyatta failed to deliver when he was president.
He should stop criticizing President Ruto and instead leave him to work for the benefit of Kenyans,” Nyakundi said.
The MP’s remarks come as Uhuru recently vowed to support a united opposition front ahead of the 2027 General Election, signaling his intent to challenge President Ruto’s re-election bid.
Nyakundi described this move as counterproductive, emphasizing that the country needs stability and development rather than political antagonism.
He also appealed to opposition leaders to consider the welfare of ordinary Kenyans instead of focusing solely on political rivalry.
“Kenya cannot keep repeating the same political games. Leaders should prioritize service delivery and leave the current government to implement its agenda,” Nyakundi added.
Political analysts say the tension between Uhuru and Ruto supporters reflects the growing polarization ahead of the 2027 elections.
Uhuru’s support for a united opposition coalition is seen as a direct challenge to the ruling party, while MPs like Nyakundi continue to defend President Ruto’s record and push for uninterrupted governance.
The debate is expected to intensify as the country edges closer to the next general election, with party loyalty, leadership performance, and development promises likely to dominate public discourse.
For now, Nyakundi’s comments underscore the divide between former and current leaders and highlight the ongoing contest over Kenya’s political future.
