“I want to tell the principals of the United Opposition that president Ruto moles in your parties,” he said.
The remarks appeared to be directed at opposition leaders, urging them to exercise caution and tighten internal structures to prevent potential leaks or internal sabotage.
Gachagua did not provide specific details or evidence to support his claim but insisted that political parties should remain alert to the possibility of infiltration, especially during a politically active period.
His statement comes at a time when political realignments and coalition-building efforts are ongoing across the country, with various leaders positioning themselves ahead of future elections.
The former Deputy President has in recent months been vocal on matters relating to political organisation, party loyalty, and shifting alliances within Kenya’s political landscape.
His remarks often draw attention due to his previous role in government and his continued influence in political discussions.
The term “Kasongo” used in his statement is understood in political circles as a reference to a rival political figure presidentWilliamRuto, though Gachagua did not elaborate further during his address.
His warning to opposition principals adds to growing political rhetoric as leaders continue to engage in debates over strategy, unity, and control of party structures.
While political parties routinely conduct internal checks to ensure cohesion and discipline among members, claims of infiltration are not uncommon during periods of heightened political competition.
