Kenyan opposition leader Rigathi Gachagua faces backlash for promoting Kikuyu dominance in Nairobi, threatening unity ahead of 2027 elections.
Former Kenyan Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, leading the Democratic Citizens Party, is emerging as a key opposition figure ahead of the 2027 elections, but his campaign has drawn criticism for promoting ethnic Kikuyu dominance in Nairobi.
His claims of securing most parliamentary seats for his party and assertions that Kikuyu should lead in the capital have sparked backlash over tribalism.
Despite efforts to unite the opposition and form alliances, including with Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka, his rhetoric is seen as divisive, potentially weakening coalition unity and bolstering President William Ruto’s re-election prospects by rallying support against ethnic exclusivity.
