Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's political moves have taken a sharp turn recently, as he shifts from being a fierce critic of Uhuru Kenyatta to expressing eagerness to collaborate for Mt Kenya unity. The once fiery critic has now extended an olive branch to Uhuru amidst the escalating supremacy battle in the region. However, this shift hasn't gone unnoticed, with voices like Makau Mutua warning Gachagua of the potential consequences of picking a fight with William Ruto.

The Kenya Kwanza ruling coalition has rallied behind Gachagua, defending him amidst concerns of internal fallout. As leaders come to his aid, the dynamic political landscape in the region continues to evolve with alliances constantly shifting. Nyeri governor Mutahi Kahiga's remarks on Gachagua being mistreated highlight the growing tensions within the Mt. Kenya leadership, especially towards Ruto.

In a bold move, Gachagua openly invites Uhuru Kenyatta to cooperate with him in the quest for unity, emphasizing the need to move past political divisions and focus on uniting the region. Meanwhile, clashes between politicians like Njeri Maina and Governor Waiguru add fuel to the already intense political environment, showcasing the rifts within the ranks.

The intriguing dynamics between Gachagua, Uhuru, and Ruto continue to captivate the political scene in Mt Kenya. With alliances shifting and tensions rising, the region remains a hotbed of political intrigue. As Gachagua navigates this complex landscape, his alliances and decisions will shape the future of Mt Kenya politics.
