Thuku predicted the next public image of Musyoka could show him with President William Ruto in Narok inspecting wheat and sunflower farms.
The remark followed high-profile opposition events on Saturday July 25 2026 including the Linda Mwananchi tour in Trans Nzoia County.
Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua also held Democracy for the Citizens Party engagements in Embu the same day.
In Trans Nzoia Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna led the Linda Mwananchi movement drawing large crowds for discussions on governance and the economy.
Governor George Natembeya welcomed the delegation as the tour continued gathering momentum ahead of 2027.
Separately Gachagua's Embu itinerary included opening DCP county offices and stops at markets and towns across the region. This formed part of a broader Mount Kenya East push aimed at strengthening party structures ahead of the next election.
Thuku noted that Musyoka long positioned as a key opposition figure has been notably silent in recent weeks. This comes since Gachagua referenced a period of intensified activity sometimes described in political circles as 45 wamunyoro days.
Speculation has grown that Musyoka could be considering cooperation with Ruto's camp which sources claim has approached him previously. It's alleged still no one knows what's going on in his mind Thuku wrote in his post.
On X users highlighted the stark contrast between Musyoka's silence and the day's political activity elsewhere. Posts observed Sifuna mobilising in Western Kenya Gachagua in Embu and Ruto hosting community health promoters at State House.
Some framed it humorously as Musyoka competing for missing person of the week among online commentators. Others suggested he was waiting for endorsement or already eyeing government options quietly behind the scenes.
Musyoka launched a 2027 presidential platform in June 2026 under the rebranded Wiper Patriotic Front focusing on ending state capture.
Allies such as Machakos Governor Wavinya Ndeti have urged Kamba unity behind his presidential bid going forward.
Past outreach from Ruto's side including earlier offers of positions that were declined continues fuelling talk of possible realignment.
Analysts note that prolonged silence risks ceding ground to rising voices such as Sifuna whose movement has gained significant visibility recently.
Whether Musyoka is recalibrating strategy or weighing cross-aisle options remains unclear at this stage. His next public appearance will be closely watched as Kenya's 2027 contest continues intensifying across different political camps.
