Kenyan Member of Parliament Peter Salasya from Mumias East has publicly endorsed former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua for the 2027 presidential election. The endorsement comes as Gachagua seeks to re-enter national politics after stepping down from his role in the government.
Salasya, a local MP, expressed support for Gachagua’s leadership qualities and vision for Kenya’s future. The endorsement is seen as a strategic move in the growing political landscape ahead of the 2027 polls.
Gachagua, who previously served as Deputy President under Uhuru Kenyatta, has not officially announced a candidacy but is increasingly viewed as a potential contender. Political analysts note that such endorsements can influence voter sentiment in a competitive electoral environment.
The political climate in Kenya remains dynamic, with multiple figures vying for influence ahead of the next presidential election.
