Insult Uhuru Yourself, Don’t Send Farouk and Ichung’wah - Gachagua Dares Ruto

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has accused President William Ruto of orchestrating attacks on former President Uhuru Kenyatta through proxies, daring him to deliver the insults personally.

Speaking on Sunday, May 4, Gachagua alleged that Ruto had instructed his personal assistant Farouk Kibet and Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung’wah to publicly insult the former head of state.

"Yesterday, I saw President William Ruto had sent Farouk Kibet and Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung'wah to insult former President Uhuru Kenyatta. I want to dare Ruto to insult Uhuru himself and not by sending his proxies," he declared.

Gachagua warned Ruto to stop instructing his allies to insult Uhuru, or he will face the wrath of the Mt. Kenya people the next time he visits the region.

"During Ruto's visit to Mt. Kenya region, I called on the people of this region not to insult Ruto or heckle him. I want to say that if you continue insulting the people of this region, the next time you come here, I will direct them insult you themselves," he warned.

Speaking in West Pokot on Saturday, May 3, Farouk hit out at Uhuru whom he accused of meddling in the running of the country.

He accused the former president of inciting the youth to lawlessness at every opportunity he gets to speak.

Farouk asked Uhuru to sit back and allow his successor the space to carry out his agenda like he was allowed for the ten years he was in power.

"We are asking the retired president to respect Kenyans. You can't be a retired head of state and then incite the public. He should allow the current president to govern.

"He was president for ten years; we were not happy with his regime, but we put up with it and allowed him to work. Every morning he wakes up to incite; he doesn't want peace for this country, we tell him that he will be defeated," he said.

Other Kenya Kwanza leaders including Ichung'wah, South Mugirango MP Silvanus Osoro, Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi and Belgut MP Nelson Koech have been on record calling out Uhuru.

The remarks come after Kenyatta called on African youth to fight for good governance and shun short term political gains, while delivering the keynote address at the second annual Guild Leaders’ Summit 2025 at Makerere University, Uganda.

During the lecture, Uhuru urged the youth to embrace their role as the freedom fighters of this era.

The fourth president highlighted Africa’s demographic advantage, noting that more than 65 percent of the continent’s population is under the age of 25, which presents a key opportunity to break free from cycles of division and corruption.

“You have the numbers, you have the time, and you have the energy to get involved and stay involved in governance discussions until you effect the changes you wish to see,” he stated.

He emphasized the urgent need for integrity-driven leadership and self-reliance to tackle the continent’s most pressing challenges. At the same time, he called on young Africans to seize the moment and become architects of a self-reliant and united continent.

“Young leaders should embrace merit-based governance, where policies serve long-term national interests. No one is coming to save us, and as the world turns increasingly inward, the places to seek refuge are rapidly disappearing.” he stated.
