In the ever-shifting landscape of Kenyan politics,a turbulent development that has been making headlines is the escalating feud between Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua and Cabinet Secretary for Trade Moses Kuria, which has left President William Ruto caught in a political quagmire.
President William Ruto, a staunch supporter of Deputy President Gachagua, and Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria, who holds a significant government position, were once considered allies in the larger Hustler Movement—a political force championed by Ruto that seeks to empower ordinary Kenyans economically. However, recent events have revealed deep-seated divisions within this movement, putting President Ruto in a precarious position.
The feud between Gachagua and Kuria is multifaceted, with both sides trading accusations and harsh words. What started as a difference of opinion within their shared political ideology has now evolved into a full-blown confrontation.Some of the key elements of this political standoff:
1. Allegations of Mismanagement:
President William Ruto has accused Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria of mismanaging funds meant for the Hustler Movement's activities. Ruto alleges that Kuria has not been transparent in his financial dealings, leading to mistrust and resentment within their ranks.
2. Leadership Disputes:
The power struggle within the Hustler Movement has also come to the fore. Both Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua and Cabinet Secretary Kuria have expressed their desire to lead the movement, further complicating the situation. This leadership dispute has raised questions about the movement's cohesion and direction.
In the coming months, all eyes will be on how President William Ruto navigates this turbulent political waterscape. Can he successfully mediate between Gachagua and Kuria to restore harmony within the Hustler Movement?
