When you see Gachagua, he’s always in a fighting mood. He has won an election, but appears he’s still annoyed… Election is over, so Gachagua keep your peace. - ODM leader Oburu Odinga
Exactl to the point ? Biggest win in Kenyans electoral history? For those who compare olkalau with moi's era? Moi won elections against? Kikuyus (add matibas & kibakis votes) add jaramogis add kijana wamalwa = disunited opposition?
Gachagua to Sammy Waweru: You fought a hard fight against a president, deputy president, 7 Cabinet ministers, 16 principal secretaries, 91 MPs, a train, 2 boats, 2,000 police officers, mattresses, shoes, goons, Sh14bn worth of projects, Sh1.1bn in cash, and you became victorious. Wewe ni mtoto wa Mungu.
Analysts say the goals range from targeting Iran’s supply lines to curbing its influence in the Strait of Hormuz.

For those who failed English language? Gachagua said he'll mobilise 7.1m votes in several counties in his region. Mandera? Garisa ? etc will be delivered by others. That 7.1m plus others in united opposition will win 2027 for Rig Gs candidate of choice? Hope its clear ???
Thank you wakili ? Some people who're lost ? Failed to read Rig Gs capacity. Rig De G said 2022 he delivered some mrima votes & 2027 he'll deliver 100% . It may not meet 25% county threshold BUT that's the most he'll do for THE United opposition? Others will also bring?
UDA and ODM leaders in the BreadBased Government are getting it wrong. HE Rigathi Gachagua is clear that he has the overwhelming support of Kikuyu voters which are 8 million. He has demonstrated that fact through the first by-election. Underrating that proven fact with reference to defeats in North Eastern, Nyanza and Western Kenya is foolhardy.
The fact is that without 8 million solid votes which he previously had or even half of it, President William Ruto cannot be re-elected. His plight is further aggravated by the unnecessary violence meted on the people of Ol Kalou. CS Aden Duale and all those misadvising the President to chest thump will be his biggest downfall.
BREAKING: Kuwait’s Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy says one of its electricity generation and water desalination plants was targeted by Iran in the latest attack, resulting in fire and damage to the site.

Despite many things your friends brought? They lost ? That's the focus for now ? And projections for the future ? Eat & vote ? For your information. That's a big deal deal for wanjikus?
THE outcome of the Ol Kalou by-election is completely irrelevant and insignificant to the 2027 elections. It’s a complete NOTHINGBURGER. Let’s not make a mountain out of a molehill. The 2027 elections will not be decided in Mount Kenya. Take this to the nearest bank.
