Gachagua Warns Odinga Siblings on 2027 Election Bids

Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua has cautioned Raila Junior and Winnie Odinga against contesting elective seats on parties linked to President William Ruto in the 2027 elections.

Gachagua believes Raila Junior has a strong chance of winning a seat in Nairobi, but not if he runs on a ticket associated with Ruto. He also thinks Winnie Odinga could win if she ran under DCP, Linda Mwananchi, or Wiper, but not under Ruto.

2027 Election Prospects

Gachagua claimed an alliance between himself, Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, and Embakasi East MP Babu Owino would sweep Nairobi’s seats in 2027. Winnie Odinga has announced plans to contest the Nairobi Senate seat, while Raila Junior plans to run for the Kibra parliamentary seat.
