Ruto-Gachagua Rift Distracts From Real Issues Facing Kenyans

The rift between president William Ruto and his Deputy Rigathi Gachagua has in the past few weeks intensified as Kenya Kwanza regime shows signs of deep-rooted disagreements.

Recently, 40 legislators drawn from Mt Kenya region signed an agreement to install Interior and National Coordination Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki as their spokesperson.

This revelation sealed Gachagua’s fate as United Democratic Alliance’ first political casualty. This played out perfectly on Sunday 16th September, when Gachagua snubbed a church service where Ruto was attending in his Nyeri backyard.

In his speech Ruto castigated his deputy for playing 2027 politics saying it’s too far.

True to this Gachagua has been traversing My Kenya calling upon the region to unite ahead of 2027 elections.

Ruto’s allies from Mt Kenya, led by Majority leaders Kimani Ichung’wah have been throwing jabs at Gachagua calling him “tribal” and “village man”.

In the Sunday Church service, Ichung’wah indirectly asked Ruto to shake off Gachagua arguing that he is becoming a hindrance to Ruto’s government delivery.

All these wrangles are diverting attention from Kenyans who are fed up with the regime’s unfulfilled promises.

Creation of employment, adherence to the rule of law for example secrecy in government deals like Adani Deal has punctuated Ruto’s two-years in office. All of which are painting the government in a bad light.

Therefore, the pull-and-push between the president and his deputy is a non issue at the time citizens are seeking clarity on government policies and deals that are mostly shrouded in secrecy contrary to constitutional processes.

The fights in the presidency should not blind Kenyans from real issues affecting them. Disagreements at the presidency shouldn’t be a reason for the state to neglect responsibilities to focus on politics
