Cracks in Kenya Kwanza as Kabogo, Kuria boycott Gachagua Kiambu rally

Ruto and Gachagua campaign

A picture on a campaign trailer shows Kenya's Deputy President William Ruto (Left) and his running mate Rigathi Gachagua of United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party during their first rally after being officially nominated as Presidential candidates by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).

There were signs of schismatic movements within the Kenya Kwanza Alliance in Mt Kenya region on Thursday after two parties skipped a Kiambu rally addressed by their presidential running mate Rigathi Gachagua.

Chama Cha Kazi Party leader Moses Kuria and Tujibebe Wakenya chair William Kabogo gave the meeting a wide berth, a day after clashing with United Democratic Alliance gubernatorial candidate Kimani Wamatangi.
