Githunguri Member of Parliament Gathoni Wamuchomba has announced she will never vie again for a political seat using the ruling United Democratic Party (UDA).
Speaking on Wednesday, February 12 night, Wamuchomba accused the UDA party of betraying her.
She called out the ruling party for abductions, extrajudicial killings, and policies that hurt Kenyans.
“I am not going to vie again under UDA that I must declare because UDA has betrayed me. I did not campaign for President Ruto as my President to abduct and kill my sons and daughters. I did not campaign and endorse my President to invade people’s pay slips and force them into serious mandatory deductions on their pay slips.
“That is why you see me opposing him in Parliament because I believe whatever he is doing, he is doing on his own he has not consulted me as one of those who were his chief supporter and campaigner,” said Wamuchomba.

The UDA lawmaker also questioned the recent merger between UDA and Amani National Congress (ANC) Party.
Wamuchomba mentioned that she is waiting for President William Ruto to gazette the merger before she declares her position.
“We are waiting to see whether the President will gazette the merger so that we can also declare our positions because we did not give him the mandate to do so,” she stated.
On whether she will join former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s highly anticipated political party, Wamuchomba said she is open to joining any party that encompasses her principles and expectations.
“If he (Gachagua) comes in and tells me, I have this political vehicle that is going to deliver whatever it is that I am fighting for, I will be at liberty to make my decision. But as of now, I am watching,” Wamuchomba added.
