Friday, April 18, 2025 - A video of Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei vowing to do “everything possible,” including rigging the 2027 election, to ensure President William Ruto secures a second term has surfaced online, drawing sharp criticism from Kenyans.
In the undated clip, the outspoken Senator declares in
Swahili: "Hatutakubali Ruto awe one-term president; sisi tuko tayari
kuiba kura, lazima amalize miaka kumi. Sisi si wajinga, si walevi, na si
wazimu." (We won’t allow Ruto to be a one-term president; we’re ready
to steal votes - he must complete ten years. We are not fools, drunkards, or
madmen.)
The remarks come amid rising political tensions, as
opposition figures, led by former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, signal
plans to unite behind a single candidate ahead of the 2027 polls.
President Ruto, under pressure over his administration’s
performance and waning popularity, especially among the youth, recently stated that
he will respect the people’s will, and focus on farming.
Cherargei’s comments, however, have raised concerns over
electoral integrity and the intentions of Ruto’s inner circle.
