President William Ruto has received a warning from former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua before to his upcoming trip to Central Kenya.

On Monday, March 31, Gachagua visited Wangige in Kiambu county for a quick public meeting in what appeared to be a calculated political maneuver.

As anticipated, the former DP attacked his former boss, claiming that he had started projects that weren’t part of the Kenya Kwanza government.

Gachagua claims that most of the initiatives Ruto plans to start were started by his predecessor, Uhuru Kenyatta.

“I want to tell the President. You are coming to Mount Kenya to tell us which projects you are working on….But we must say the truth: the projects that are in Central Kenya are those that were initiated by former President Uhuru Kenyatta, and you have refused to complete them,” Gachagua said.

Ruto is scheduled to appear on all Central Kenyan vernacular stations before to his tour, a move Gachagua says is intended to deceive the public ahead of the President’s arrival.

“Don’t lie to the people of Mount Kenya. I hear he is going to make an appearance on the radio tonight. Will you listen to him?” Gachagua remarked.

Two days prior, Gachagua had warned the residents of Mount Kenya to be cautious of the President’s purported use of financial inducements to win over the voting bloc.

For the first time since August 2024, when Gachagua was still his deputy, Ruto will be making a thorough tour of the Mount Kenya region. It is anticipated that Ruto, whose tour starts on April 1, will start a number of projects in several counties, including Laikipia, Nyeri, Meru, Kirinyaga, Nyandarua, Murang’a, Embu, Tharaka-Nithi, and Kiambu.
