Kalonzo has rejected efforts by President William Ruto’s allies to bring him into the government. Kalonzo has told Ruto’s allies he will not join their administration. The Wiper Party leader reaffirmed his commitment to the opposition.
Gachagua, a key ally of Ruto, reportedly urged UDA leaders to stop trying to lure Kalonzo into government. Kalonzo has remained firm in his position, insisting he will face Ruto’s administration as an opposition figure. The tension comes amid ongoing political maneuvering in Kenya.
