Oburu Oginga's sudden U-turn shakes race for deputy president slot

13th February, 2026

The race for the deputy president slot is shaping up to be a fresh political headache for William Ruto ahead of the 2027 General Election.

The latest twist comes after Oburu Oginga made a sudden U-turn on his party’s push to target the deputy president position, reopening debate over who will ultimately secure the powerful slot.

Oburu’s remarks have reignited scrutiny over the delicate balancing act facing President Ruto as he prepares his re-election bid and weighs his choice of running mate for a possible second and final term.

With shifting alliances and growing regional interests, the battle for the number two position is now emerging as one of the most closely watched dynamics heading into 2027.
