Githunguri Member of Parliament Gathoni Wamuchomba has come out clear in support of President William Ruto ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Taking to her official X account on Monday, January 26, 2026, Wamuchomba, in a video, confessed her support to Ruto, declaring two terms for Ruto as she also embarks on a three-term journey for Githunguri Constituency.
“Yangu ni three term ya Rais ni two term twende kazi bila kelele,” Wamuchomba said.
On her part, the Githunguri Member of Parliament, while maintaining her support for President Ruto, insisted on actualising her 2026 resolution, which she announced to be more developmental with politics aside.
“Yeah i have decided this year i want maendeleo na kazi, siasa tutapiga baadaye,” she added.
Drapped in a United Democratic Alliance scarf, Wamuchomba announced she feels at home.
“Niko nyumbani niko State House kwa UDA,” Wamuchomba firmly stated.
Her remarks come just months after she questioned the excitement that teachers showed when they danced with President William Ruto at State House, saying the reality of their pay slips does not match the jubilation.
At the time, the Githunguri Member of Parliament went on to say that she found it surprising to see civil servants celebrating at State House when they continue to face frustrations caused by multiple salary deductions.
“I saw teachers dancing with the president, very excited. Kwani, what did he give them? Did he remove the house levy, or did he give them a waiver? I was not on the news all day,” Wamuchomba posted on her official X account on Saturday, September 13, 2025.
“I get surprised when I see civil servants dancing in the Statehouse, yet their pay slips are punched,” she added.
Her remarks opened up debate among Kenyans online, with many reflecting on the pressure faced by teachers and other workers who have complained about high deductions.
Wamuchomba’s sharp reaction reflected her consistent criticism of policies she argues have reduced disposable income for ordinary families.
Some saw the MP’s statement as a warning that the financial burden faced by civil servants cannot be ignored, even when government leaders rally support through events and promises.
