Moses Kuria Reveals Martha Karua Warned Gachagua Over Ruto Tricks
In a dramatic revelation on Sunday evening, Senior State House Advisor Moses Kuria expressed deep regrets among Mt Kenya leaders regarding their decision to join President William Ruto’s Kenya Kwanza coalition without political party backing.
Kuria criticized his fellow politicians for underestimating the political consequences of their alliance, pointing to warnings from prominent figures, including Martha Karua and Mwangi wa Iria.
“Dr. Thuo Mathenge No Wanguku, William Kabogo, Peter Munya, Mwangi wa Iria, Martha Karua warned you about going into elections without a political party,” Kuria stated emphatically. His remarks come at a time when dissatisfaction with the coalition is growing, particularly among those who feel sidelined in the current administration.
Kuria, known for his candid political commentary, urged those who ignored the warnings to brace for the consequences of their choices. “Forget about the government as you move into the opposition,” he advised, highlighting that Deputy President nominee Kithure Kindiki would assume his responsibilities without protest.
“You fought us like a monitor lizard. Now you want us to cry with you into the opposition. Forget! We have moved on. Prof. Kithure Kindiki is the Deputy President of the Republic of Kenya,” Kuria added, delivering a stinging rebuke to those he believes have been disloyal to the Kenya Kwanza vision.
The implications of Kuria’s statements are far-reaching, given his history with these leaders. His acknowledgment of former rivals like Karua and Munya signals a potential shift in alliances and loyalties within the region. In previous months, Kuria had publicly criticized Deputy President Gachagua’s “isolationist politics,” urging unity among Kenyans.
“I want to tell my people of Mt Kenya, let no one deceive you that we can isolate ourselves. There is beauty and sweetness in bringing all Kenyans together,” he asserted. Kuria’s candid observations have raised eyebrows, particularly as he also accused senior government figures of conspiring for his removal from his ministerial role earlier this year. “You pressed President Ruto repeatedly to have me fired,” he revealed, detailing his experiences with intra-party politics.
As the political landscape in Kenya continues to evolve, Kuria’s insights highlight the challenges and divisions that leaders from Mt Kenya face in navigating their political futures.
