According to a report by Nation, Mr Gachagua has reportedly intensified efforts to identify and expel members suspected of acting as moles within the party ranks.
Source indicate that the process of rooting out those believed to be collaborating with rival political camps is already underway which the former DP vowed he will spare no one found culpable.
The developments come amid rising tensions between DCP Deputy Party Leader Cleophas Malala and Kirinyaga Woman Representative Njeri Maina.
The fallout reportedly stems from a meeting held on Wednesday night at a hotel in Murang’a County, where Mr Malala met with several Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) from Kirinyaga.
Ms Maina accused Mr Malala of working in cahoots with agents linked to Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru in a bid to undermine Mr Gachagua’s influence in the region.
According to the Woman Representative, the meeting brought together ward representatives from across Kirinyaga County to allegedly form a breakaway faction within the party that could challenge allies of the DCP leader.
In a strongly worded response, Ms Maina launched a scathing attack on Mr Malala, claiming that the main agenda of the Murang’a meeting was to create a splinter group aimed at weakening Mr Gachagua’s leadership.
However, DCP Head of Strategy Peter Mbae defended Mr Malala, dismissing the allegations and insisting that the meeting had the full blessings of the party leadership.
Dr Mbae stated that Mr Gachagua had tasked his deputy with reaching out to new supporters and expanding the party’s grassroots network, adding that the Murang’a meeting was part of that broader strategy to strengthen the party’s presence across the region.
