Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has dismissed Deputy President Kithure Kindiki as a political rival, while warning the opposition against underestimating President William Ruto’s campaign machinery ahead of the 2027 General Election.
Speaking during a political engagement, Gachagua claimed that Kindiki was not in his league, arguing that the Deputy President was following in his footsteps in terms of political engagements and public appearances.
“I have told Methu that Professor Kithure Kindiki is not in my league. If Kindiki visits a particular place on Monday, Methu returns to that same place on Tuesday,” Gachagua said.
The former Deputy President also described President Ruto as an aggressive campaigner with significant financial resources, cautioning opposition leaders against giving him political room.
“Ruto is an aggressive campaigner, a liar and has money. If you give him room, he will run you over,” Gachagua stated..
