What you need to know:

  • Mr Gachagua criticised President Ruto for suggesting that he will easily win the 2027 election because his opponents are weak. 
  • DAP-K leader Eugene Wamalwa said the opposition is ready to make sacrifices to ensure they deliver presidential seat in 2027.

Leaders of the United Opposition formation have announced that they will use all means available to win the by-elections, which are scheduled for November 27, 2025.

While addressing the media on Monday in Nairobi, the leaders said they will ensure that President William Ruto's United Democratic Alliance (UDA) and its partner ODM in the broad-based government do not win seats in the exercise.
