According to Wambugu, this crucial move kept Gachagua afloat politically at a time when many thought he was on the brink of political disaster.
Wambugu’s revelation comes as he shares his side of the story in a candid Facebook post, which can be viewed here: Facebook link.
He claims that Kalonzo and Eugene’s involvement was not incidental—they were strategically contacted by him, not by Gachagua, highlighting the behind-the-scenes maneuvering that often escapes public view.
The revelation also paints former Deputy President Gachagua in a new light. Wambugu points out that Gachagua did not have direct lines of communication with Kalonzo or Eugene at that point, suggesting he had never seen the need to engage with them politically.
Wambugu stepping in to bridge that gap underscores the role of strategic intermediaries in Kenya’s high-stakes political arena.
This disclosure has fueled discussions among political analysts and grassroots supporters alike.
Some see Wambugu’s intervention as a masterstroke of political foresight, while others question why Gachagua himself did not take initiative, raising doubts about his independent political management.
The timing of Wambugu’s revelation is also significant. With 2027 around the corner, every political move, alliance, and strategic conversation is under scrutiny.
Observers note that understanding these historical alliances is key to predicting future power plays in Mt Kenya and beyond.
As the political chess game intensifies, Wambugu’s openness serves as a reminder that influence in Kenyan politics often extends beyond elected positions.
The unsung role of connectors, negotiators, and strategists can define who survives politically and who falters.
