Friday, January 31, 2025 - Former police spokesperson Charles Owino has accused former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua of working against President William Ruto while still in office.
This follows Gachagua’s recent
conduct and criticism of Ruto and his government.
Speaking in an interview, Owino
claimed that many people would have believed Gachagua if he had resigned voluntarily.
"If Gachagua had resigned
on his own volition, people would have really believed in him. But if you don’t
do that and come and start behaving the way he is behaving now, then people
will tend to believe that indeed he was sabotaging his government," he
said.
Owino's statement comes amid
increasing political tension between Gachagua and Ruto.
For instance, while attending
the opening ceremony of the DAP-K party headquarters on Monday, January 27,
Gachagua alleged that senior officials at State House are doing business in the
Affordable Housing Programme.
Gachagua claimed that Ruto's
allies were the ones supplying construction materials for the projects, adding
that the programme was coined to benefit those close to the president.
During the same meeting,
Gachagua accused Ruto of spreading false narratives about his removal from
office, slamming him for labeling him as corrupt while deflecting his own
accountability.
