Democratic Party leader Justin Muturi has expressed concerns over former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s conduct within the United Opposition. Muturi warns that Gachagua’s political approach risks undermining the coalition’s unity and its shared ambition of securing State House in the 2027 General Election.
Muturi accused the Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) leader of promoting political tactics that could fragment the opposition, questioning his commitment to the movement’s collective presidential agenda.
In a statement, Muturi said Gachagua’s insistence on tripartite political arrangements and what he described as attempts to undermine existing cooperation raised questions about whether the former Deputy President was prioritising the presidential contest or positioning himself for post-election political bargaining.
