THE POLITICAL REBIRTH OF RIGATHI GACHAGUA: FROM IMPEACHMENT TO ASCENDANCE

THE POLITICAL REBIRTH OF RIGATHI GACHAGUA: FROM IMPEACHMENT TO ASCENDANCE

By DR. FAITH MUSYOKA 
The COUNTY DIARY REPORTER 

In a dramatic turn of events, Rigathi Gachagua, the former Deputy President of Kenya, has emerged as a powerful force in Kenyan politics. After being impeached by President William Ruto in a calculated move to eliminate him from the political scene, Gachagua has risen from the ashes like a phoenix, stronger and more determined than ever.

The impeachment, which was widely seen as a ruthless political chess game, has had an unintended consequence. Instead of ending Gachagua's career, it has catapulted him to the forefront of Mount Kenya politics, where he now commands respect and loyalty that no impeachment could erase.

But in a surprising twist, Ruto is now working tirelessly to have the courts clear Gachagua's name. However, this move is not driven by goodwill, but rather by pure political calculation. Ruto fears that Gachagua has secretly aligned himself with a powerful emerging force - a coalition that could reshape Kenya's political future.

The coalition, which is said to feature Kalonzo Musyoka as the presidential candidate and George Natembeya as his deputy, has sent shockwaves through the political establishment. Ruto is terrified that this ticket could unite the opposition and pose a serious challenge to his re-election bid.

By pushing for Gachagua's clearance, Ruto hopes to trick him into running for president and splitting the opposition votes, thereby securing himself a second term in State House. However, Gachagua is not a man to be underestimated. A graduate of Political Science from the University of Nairobi, he is a strategist, a thinker, and a survivor who has a deep understanding of human nature, power, and politics.

As the 2027 elections approach, it's clear that Gachagua will not fall into the same trap twice. He has learned from his experience and is ready to take on the master. The question on everyone's lips is: what will happen next in this gripping game of political chess?

  1. Good political moment here. What you failed to address is the election counting process. Thats the process that is corrupted. IN THE PAST TWO ELECTIONS IN KENYA


    Every one said Raila won but the election commission changed the data.
    Please adress the political results manipulation issue.
    My thing is this RUTO will be re elected . People will say its corruption that made him re elected.
