Speaking on Saturday during a DCP rally in the Central region, the party’s deputy leader, Cleophas Malala, declared confidently that former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua will win the next general election and become the sixth president of the Republic of Kenya.
Malala assured the crowd that Gachagua’s journey to State House is unstoppable, despite any challenges or opposition.
In his statement, Malala explained that nothing can stop Rigathi Gachagua from contesting the presidential seat in 2027. He reminded Kenyans that even Mwai Kibaki was once fired as Vice President by President Moi, but that did not stop him from becoming president later.
Malala emphasized that impeachment or other political tactics will not affect Gachagua’s plans, insisting that he is determined to lead the country.
Malala also directed a strong warning to President William Ruto, saying there will be “no escape route” for him once Gachagua assumes power.
He added that Gachagua’s first actions will include reviewing the Standard Gauge Railway project, stopping the Affordable Housing program, and holding accountable leaders accused of embezzling public funds.
According to Malala, those involved in corruption, including Ruto, will face the law in court.
The rally attracted large crowds from the Central region, with many supporters expressing confidence in Gachagua’s leadership.
Malala’s message is seen as a bold move to energize the DCP base and position Gachagua as the main contender for 2027.
