Former president Uhuru Kenyatta has once again sparked political discussions following reports of a private meeting with former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua and other opposition leaders. The gathering reportedly focused on fostering unity among opposition figures as the country begins to eye the 2027 General Election.
According to media reports, the meeting took place on Wednesday, April 2, shortly after the burial of former Kirinyaga senator Daniel Karaba. Sources claim the discussion involved Uhuru, Gachagua, Kalonzo Musyoka, Martha Karua, Eugene Wamalwa, Fred Matiang’i, Justin Muturi, and Siaya governor James Orengo.
The alleged engagement has fueled speculation over possible political cooperation among leaders considered critical of President William Ruto’s administration. Observers noted that any interaction between Uhuru and Gachagua, once seen as political rivals, is particularly notable.
No official statement or announcement has confirmed the formation of any coalition, and the full details of what was discussed remain unverified. Analysts caution against interpreting the meeting as evidence of a finalized political alliance.
The timing of the gathering is politically significant, reflecting early signs of 2027 succession planning. Kenya’s political landscape is already shifting, and the involvement of influential figures like Uhuru continues to draw public and media attention.
