Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has hinted at a political alliance with Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka, stating that Kalonzo has proven to be an ally of the mountain in difficult times and, as such, the mountain shall return the favour at the right time.
Gachagua says the mountain owes Kalonzo a debt for supporting the late President Mwai Kibaki, and 2027 is the time to pay the debt.
The former deputy president has often talked about giving the Mt. Kenya region and his supporters political direction next year, but Rigathi Gachagua may have already let the cat out of the bag, hinting at a political alliance with Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka
The former DP who has often talked about giving the Mt. Kenya region and his supporters political direction next year spoke during his visit to Kalonzo’s political bastion in Mbooni, Makueni County.
“Wakati tulikuwa tunafukuzwa na wale walitusaidia, nyinyi mlikuja mkatushikilia, na sisi watu wa Mlima Kenya sisi ni watu tuko na shukrani,” he said.
He says Kalonzo’s political dues in the mountain have now grown with interest, starting from his time as Kibaki’s vice president, and that Kalonzo has proven his unwavering loyalty to the people of Mt. Kenya when it matters the most.
“Huyu Kalonzo alisimama na Mwai Kibaki na hiyo deni hatukulipa. Sasa kura lazima tutaweka debe moja,” added Gachagua.
