The battle for Mt Kenya has taken another dramatic twist, and many people were left talking after fresh political remarks reignited debate over the Ol Kalou by-election. What happened next surprised many as Deputy President Kithure Kindiki insisted the region remains firmly in the Kenya Kwanza camp despite the ruling coalition's heavy loss.
Speaking after the mini-poll, Kindiki dismissed claims that the Ol Kalou outcome signaled a collapse of government support in Mt Kenya. He argued that one by-election should not be used to judge the political direction of an entire region, maintaining that Kenya Kwanza still enjoys strong backing ahead of the 2027 General Election.
His remarks came after the Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) secured a convincing victory over the UDA candidate in a contest that attracted nationwide attention. The by-election quickly turned into a symbolic political showdown between President William Ruto's allies and supporters of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.GET FULL STORY HERE.
