Politicians plotting against the government continue to realign as the 2027 general election draws closer.
Former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua has been on a mission to bolster his side to challenge President William Ruto out of office in the next vote.
On Saturday, March 1, Gachagua hosted political activist Morara Kebaso, with whom he discussed the future of the country.
Morara, who is also the leader of the INJECT party, revealed that their discussions revolved around, among others, the economic wellness of Kenyans, police brutality
"I met with Rigathi Gachagua to discuss the reality of Kenyan politics and the practical steps that should be taken for meaningful reforms. We also discussed the issue of youth unemployment, economic exclusion, and human rights abuse. He shared with me his thoughts about what should be done to exact justice for victims of police brutality, abduction, and extrajudicial killings. I will continue to engage leaders from across the political, religious, and civic space in amplifying the voice of the youth in their quest for change," he said.

Morara has expressed his interest in vying for the presidency in the 2027 elections.
Gachagua, on his part, has restated often that the Mt. Kenya region will solidly be in the next administration, regardless of his unsuitability to vie for the presidency having been an impeached person.
Others in Gachagua's fold are Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, PLP's Martha Karua, and DAP Kenya's Eugene Wamalwa.
Ruto has however dismissed the formation, saying they have nothing on him given that their sole agenda is to unseat him at the expense of development.
