Former Azimio leader Raila Odinga’s chief agent Saitabao Ole Kanchory has stated that former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua will play the role of kingmaker in 2027, despite his removal from the government.
Gachagua was ousted from the government after President William Ruto instructed Members of Parliament and Senators to initiate his impeachment.
Nonetheless, even after his impeachment, Gachagua has gained significant popularity in the country, particularly in the Mt Kenya region.
Indeed, promoting President William Ruto in the Mt Kenya region is akin to attempting to “sell pork in Saudi Arabia” due to Gachagua’s impeachment.
Regarding Gachagua’s influence, Kanchory remarked that any candidate Gachagua supports in 2027 will ensure Ruto’s defeat by 8 am.
“The candidate whom Gachagua backs will defeat Ruto in 2027.
“I don’t favor Gachagua, but he is the individual we must unite behind.
“Politics is simply a matter of numbers. It is straightforward. Siasa musiweke Kwa roho. We should be practical, not sentimental,” Kanchory posted on his Twitter page.
