There is a growing pattern that is hard to ignore: every time Rigathi Gachagua opens his mouth, he tells us more about who he really is. And it’s not looking good.
When Gachagua speaks, we see a leader who often falls back on tribal language — the kind that divides rather than unites. He constantly reminds us who voted for whom, as if Kenya is a private business run on shareholder politics. That’s dangerous talk in a country where unity should come before regional loyalty.
We also hear a man obsessed with power and position. Gachagua’s every word is about what he deserves, what his region deserves, what he wants. There’s little mention of service, solutions, or sacrifice. That kind of entitlement doesn’t build a better Kenya.
And then there’s the dishonesty — the twisting of facts to fit whatever story works for the day. One moment he is loyal to the President, the next moment he is rallying against him. He claims to speak for the people, yet the same people feel left out, ignored, and misrepresented. It’s the kind of behavior that makes you wonder: is he fighting for Kenya or just for himself?
Yet, ironically, the more he speaks, the better it is for the country. Because now, we no longer have to guess. We are seeing him clearly — unfiltered, uncensored, and unmasked.
So by all means, give him the mic. Let him talk. Kenya is listening — and learning.
