A third force forming away from Ruto and Gachagua ahead of 2027

Amid high-octane politics, including one-term and two-term political sloganeering pitting President William Ruto against his former Deputy Rigathi Gachagua, youthful leaders across the political divide are coalescing to form a third force.

While Ruto and Gachagua’s axis are competing based on ethnic mobilisation while presenting themselves as each other’s checkmate, the youthful group is presenting itself as a budgetary watchdog, and Gen Z friendly, whose aim is to liberate the country from the ever politicking class which include the Kenya Kwanza government led by Ruto and the opposition led by Gachagua, Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka among others.
