Gathoni Wamuchomba claims Ruto plans to shortage Mt Kenya alleging the president is headed for a handshake with Raila

Gathoni Wamuchomba claims Ruto plans to shortage Mt Kenya alleging the president is headed for a handshake with Raila.

President William Ruto is allegedly preparing to undercut the Mt. Kenya region by having a handshake with ODM leader Raila Odinga, according to Githunguri MP Gathoni Wamuchomba. 

During an interview on Inooro TV, Wamuchomba claimed there would be a handshake similar to the one between former president Uhuru Kenyatta and the ODM leader.

Wamuchomba argues that Mount Kenya leaders are being duped into believing there is no political agreement between Ruto and Raila.

Wamuchomba said it would be a matter of time before it eventually happens and that the Central region will stand to lose.

“The same handshake that happened last time is the same that will play out again. But we, the people of Mt Kenya, are being told nothing is happening. But some of the cards have been hidden so that we (Mt Kenya people) can be comfortable. But plans are happening, and the handshake will happen; when it happens, the people of Mt Kenya will be left in the dark,” Wamuchomba said on Sunday, October 8. 

She claimed that the vote-rich region is being managed, but eventually, the handshake will happen between Ruto and Raila.

“They pretended as if nothing was happening, and then we saw them together shaking hands on the stairs of Harambee House,” she added. 

Remarks by Wamuchomba come after DP Gachagua warned that the Mt Kenya region would resist any move that would give Raila incorporated in Kenya Kwanza government. 

“I assure you that the talks will get him nowhere. We have agreed with President William Ruto that we will not bring him into the government,” Gachagua said. 

The DP stated that he had given President William Ruto a condition that, if not met, would see the region rescind its support for the head of state. 

“I have since put a condition on President Ruto that if the talks end in a handshake, Mount Kenya will rebel,” the DP added. Gachagua explained that the leaders in Mt Kenya would not accommodate the former premier in government through a handshake arrangement.
