“We Are Behind You” – Ndindi Nyoro Tells Gachagua

The member of the national assembly for Kiharu, Honourable Ndindi Nyoro expressed his unconditional support for Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua during a fundraiser at Bishop Gatimu Kinyona Girls in Murang’a County. In an event hosted by the nominated member of the national assembly, Sabina Chege and attended by Rigathi Gachagua, Hon. Nyoro said, “Deputy President, we will support you and the President unconditionally.”
He assured Mr. Gachagua that UDA leaders will always support the presidency and that the government is promoting education throughout the country. The remarks come just a few weeks after some Murang’a leaders suggested Ndindi as a suitable candidate to succeed Ruto in 2027.
The leaders from Murang’a County, led by Gatanga MP, Edward Muriu, have since retracted their statement and now support Gachagua as the highest-ranking politician in Mt Kenya. The Murang’a event marked the first time Gachagua and Ndindi shared a public podium since their endorsement, which sparked speculation of power struggles between them.
On Friday, Gachagua spoke in Kirinyaga where he asked all leaders to unify and speak with one voice to promote unity and progress.
In the Kirinyaga event, Gachagua urged leaders to unite and avoid divisive political manoeuvres. “Those trying to divide the area should know that the people of Mt Kenya are knowledgeable and aware of what is occurring; those seeking to separate us are enemies of the region,” he underlined.
