Monday, March 10, 2025 - Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has sensationally claimed that President Ruto has sold the Bomas of Kenya, a national heritage site, to a Turkish investor.
Speaking at the ACK Holy Trinity Church in Kitengela, Kajiado
County, Gachagua alleged that the Cabinet approved the sale
despite opposition from the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA).
"As we speak, Bomas of Kenya has been sold to a Turkish
national.”
“The Cabinet was informed, and I was the only one who
opposed it.”
“This is a national heritage; we cannot sell it," he
stated.
He further claimed that the KCAA raised concerns due to the
site's location within a flight path, but the Government allegedly ignored
their objections.
Gachagua also alleged that the sale
extended to prison lands, warning that Kenyans are “on their
own” in protecting national assets.
The Bomas of Kenya, established in 1971,
was meant to preserve and promote Kenya’s diverse cultural heritage.
It has served as a major tourist attraction and a venue for
national events, including past election negotiations.
Gachagua’s remarks come just days after President
William Ruto and ODM leader, Raila
Odinga,
formalized a political pact aimed at fostering cooperation
between their parties.
The agreement includes proposals for the Office
of the Official Opposition Leader and the reinstatement
of the Prime Minister’s position.
Dismissing the Ruto-Raila handshake as a distraction,
Gachagua urged Kenyans to focus on real issues, stating, “Politics
is a game of numbers, and I assure you, the numbers are good.”
