Make no mistake. Impeached Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s rising political status is the reason President William Ruto and President Uhuru Kenyatta met on Friday.
The pretence is that the meeting was accidental. Truth is, it was well calculated.
The two are united against Gachagua. Ruto because he fears his Deputy can make him a ‘wantam’ President.
Uhuru has never forgiven Gachagua for humiliating him in the 2022 elections. In the mountain.
Worse, his stolen sheep and raid on his expansive Northlands farm have hurt to date.
Uhuru consciously wants to retain the GEMA kingship for political play.
The 4th President was almost silent in the Hague for protecting his community in the Rift Valley.
Uhuru has taken good note of what has happened to the Moi family. He will be keen to ensure his family remains politically active.
He is already grooming his daughter, Ngina Kenyatta, for leadership. With a firm strategy of grooming her to become the first woman President in Kenya.
GEMA masses owe Kenyatta a political debt. They are likely to listen to him.
Who are the losers of UhuRuto deal?
