Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has become a tough political heavyweight, years after being removed from office through an impeachment process.
The former Mathira Member of Parliament has joined other opposition leaders, including Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka, Martha Karua, Eugene Wamalwa, Fred Matiang’i, among others, in efforts to ensure that President Ruto serves only one term.
As the political tensions between President Ruto and his former deputy continue to escalate, political analysts and observers have revealed that President Ruto might be fighting this battle alone and is receiving little to no support from his inner circle within the government.
These political analysts believe that individuals who should have been helping President William Ruto confront and politically neutralize Rigathi Gachagua have remained silent; some appear afraid to speak out, while others have seemingly disappeared, as political temperatures rise in the country.
