Speaking to supporters, Gachagua opened the door for a strong alliance against the current government. He wants to join forces with the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) and its acting leader Oburu Odinga. The only condition is simple, President Ruto must stay out of the picture.
Gachagua, now leading the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP), says Kenya needs fresh unity to fix the country’s problems. He believes working with like-minded leaders from ODM can build real change for 2027.
Many in Mount Kenya region, once strong Ruto backers, now feel left out and are listening closely to Gachagua’s message.
This offer comes at a hot time in Kenyan politics. ODM under Oburu Odinga is busy talking with Ruto’s side about a broad-based government.
Some ODM voices have already said teaming up with Gachagua will not lead them to power. Yet Gachagua insists the real power lies with the people, not deals made in offices.
His statement has sparked fresh excitement and debate. Supporters cheer the idea of a big opposition front without Ruto. Critics call it a desperate move by a man fighting to stay relevant after being removed as deputy president.
Gachagua’s clear “no Ruto” line draws a sharp battle line. As parties prepare for the next big election, this move could shake up alliances and force many leaders to pick sides.
Will Oburu and ODM listen? Or will they stick with the government? Kenya watches as old rivals eye new friendships, all to win the hearts of voters tired of broken promises.
