Opposition raises election rigging alarm, questions Ruto’s links to Chivayo
Democratic Party (DP) leader Justin Muturi has raised fresh concerns over the integrity of future elections, accusing President William Ruto of associating with individuals he claims are linked to disputed electoral processes and questionable activities abroad.
Speaking during a church service at ACK Gitugi, Muturi warned that Kenya could be heading down a dangerous political path if what he described as questionable foreign actors continue to access the highest offices of power.
Muturi singled out businessman Wicknell Chivayo, alleging connections to disputes and controversies in other African countries.
He questioned why such individuals frequently travel to Kenya and gain access to senior government offices, claiming Chivayo routinely enters the country and has been seen near government circles.
“We must begin to ask ourselves: what is it that William Ruto does with these people? These are crooks,” Muturi said, urging Kenyans to consider the implications of these associations on national leadership.

Muturi also mentioned other international figures, including a Venezuelan link, framing them as part of a broader network whose members have been implicated in electoral credibility issues in Namibia and South Africa.
While noting these allegations, Muturi urged citizens not to lose hope but to pursue change through democratic means, emphasizing the ballot as the avenue for political transformation amid economic and social challenges facing the country.
The DP leader’s comments come amid ongoing opposition demands for electoral reforms, including calls for the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to review its engagement with technology firms such as Smartmatic, which have faced scrutiny in other jurisdictions and raised questions among Kenyan political groups about election technology credibility ahead of the 2027 General Election.
