Wiper Party Leader Dr. Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka has called out President William Ruto’s government for what he termed as a State-sponsored attack on former Deputy President H.E. Rigathi Gachagua at the PCEA Church in Mwiki, Kasarani.
The brazen assault, which has sent shockwaves across the nation, has raised serious concerns about the state of law and order in Kenya. Kalonzo condemned the violent act, labeling it a national shame and an affront to the sanctity of church grounds, which should remain a place of peace and reflection. He questioned why such an attack would take place in the house of God and accused the government of orchestrating the violence in a desperate move to silence the Deputy President.
Eyewitnesses at the church report that chaos erupted as unidentified goons stormed the sanctuary, disrupting the solemn Sunday service with violence. What should have been a place of worship turned into a battlefield, as the former Deputy President’s security detail fought to shield him from the aggression.
The incident, widely condemned across political and religious circles, has sparked a fiery backlash against President William Ruto’s administration, with accusations of orchestrating the attack to silence his estranged deputy.
Kalonzo Musyoka Condemns the Attack
Wiper Party Leader Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka has strongly condemned the attack, calling out those behind it as “workers of iniquity and servants of the devil.” The church, a sacred space meant for peace and reflection, was desecrated by the very forces meant to uphold order. Kalonzo questioned the morality behind such an act, asking, “Why would anyone, let alone state-sponsored elements, commit violence in the house of God?”
State Funds for Manipulation?
In another shocking revelation, allegations have surfaced that President Ruto has been paying citizens to attend his meetings, a desperate move that points to dwindling public support. “Why would you pay people to attend your rallies?” Kalonzo posed. The growing disillusionment with Ruto’s leadership has fueled the trending call for his resignation under the viral hashtag #RutoMustGo.
Observers argue that the fundamentals of Ruto’s administration are compromised, as bribery and deception can only sustain a regime for so long. “You can’t buy loyalty forever,” Kalonzo added. “At some point, Kenyans will see through the lies.”
A Nation at a Crossroads
The attack on former DP Gachagua at Kasarani Church is a clear indication that Kenya’s political climate is becoming increasingly volatile. The question now is—how far is too far? Has Kenya’s leadership abandoned all principles in the quest for absolute power?
