Natembeya used the moment to push a hard message on political independence, warning against reliance on outside alliances while hinting at a new regional path, as seen in his remarks.
According to Gachagua’s account, the call was not merely a request — it was a forceful demand.
The President allegedly pressed Kiaraho to cut short his treatment and immediately fly back to Nairobi to cast his vote.
The urgency and pressure were apparently so intense that the call has now become a focal point of political debate.
But in a dramatic twist, Gachagua says MP Kiaraho refused.
Despite being unwell and recovering in a foreign hospital, Kiaraho reportedly stood his ground.
“I cannot betray you and the people of the Mountain,” Kiaraho said during the conversation — a line that Gachagua repeated to an astonished audience.
This principled refusal, according to the former Deputy President, prevented what some political analysts are calling “an orchestrated manipulation of parliamentary votes.”
The revelation has sparked fierce reactions across political divides, with supporters praising Kiaraho’s loyalty to his constituents, and opponents questioning the implications of Ruto’s alleged intervention.
Whether this explosive account will lead to further political fallout remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: Kenya’s political theatre just got a lot more dramatic.
