New Twist as Gachagua Changes Tune on Launch of New Party, Again

On Sunday, former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua once again postponed the highly anticipated launch of his new political party.

Speaking during a prime-time interview aired on all major media stations from the Mt. Kenya region, Gachagua assured the public that all preparations for the new party were complete, with only the official unveiling remaining.

However, despite widespread speculation that he would reveal key details about the party during the interview, he chose to remain tight-lipped, leaving many of his supporters in suspense.

Gachagua confirmed that the party’s official launch would take place in Nairobi, a strategic decision aimed at accommodating supporters traveling from different parts of the country.

However, when pressed to disclose the name of the new political outfit, the former Mathira MP declined, citing political strategy.

“I will not announce the party’s name today, but I can assure you it is a strong party with a solid constitution.

Everything is in place, and we will launch it in a grand ceremony in Nairobi at a venue that will be announced later,” Gachagua stated.

“This event will bring together people from all corners of the country as we officially unveil our party. Once that is done, we will roll out our plans and move forward,” he added.

His latest statement marks yet another shift from his earlier promise to launch the party on January 31.

When that deadline passed, he reassured his core supporters that the unveiling would happen within weeks.

Now, he has extended the timeline further, indicating that the party will be launched in May—more than three months from now.

During the interview, Gachagua confidently predicted that the formation of his party would lead to a mass exodus from the ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA), significantly altering the country’s political landscape.

In recent months, the former DP has been using his Wamunyoro residence in Nyeri County as a key political base, frequently hosting local leaders from the Mt. Kenya region in an effort to consolidate his influence and rally support.

However, his claims of pulling Mt. Kenya behind him were met with strong criticism, particularly from his political rivals.

Among the first to respond was Mathira MP Eric Wamumbi, a former ally turned critic, who dismissed Gachagua’s assertion that his party would trigger a mass defection from UDA.

“Rigathi Gachagua is not Mt. Kenya, and Mt. Kenya is not Rigathi Gachagua. The people of this region are politically aware.

If they feel you are misleading them, they will abandon you,” Wamumbi remarked during an interview with NTV.

“I have a massive following in my constituency. I even visited his stronghold, and his own people told me to stand with President Ruto because they believe Gachagua is misleading and deceiving the people of Mt. Kenya,” he added.

Gachagua’s political maneuvering continues to generate mixed reactions, with some viewing his moves as a strategic attempt to carve out an independent power base, while others see it as a miscalculated step that could cost him politically in the long run.

As May approaches, all eyes will be on him to see whether he finally delivers on his promise or shifts the goalposts once again.
