Njiru suggested that Gachagua had a chance to be in a government despite his impeachment.

Impeached people in Kenya are barred from public office.

“We want to plan ourselves and urge Gachagua to look for other friends we form government in 2027. The incoming government will be under Gachagua and those friends. We cannot forget Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, whose MPs and senators voted against Gachagua’s impeachment. Gachagua should look for him and form government. We must take Ruto home,” said Njiru.
