dismisses Gachagua castration fears as \u2018panic-driven\u2019"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><strong>NAIROBI, Kenya, Nov 13 \u2013 The ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA) has issued a scathing statement targeting former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, accusing him of spreading falsehoods, engaging in political theatrics, and defrauding a parliamentary aspirant in Mbeere North.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a response on Thursday, UDA Secretary General Hassan Omar Hassan dismissed Gachagua\u2019s recent public letter to the Inspector General of Police as \u201cpanic-driven, baseless, and bloated with innuendo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour latest public outburst, packaged as a solemn letter to the Inspector General of Police, is nothing more than a satirical drama script miserably lacking in facts and swollen with innuendo,\u201d the response read in part.<\/p>\n<p>Gachagua had written to Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja, alleging inaction over threats of violence circulating on social media ahead of the November 27 Mbeere North by-election, and calling for immediate arrests of the alleged perpetrators.<\/p>\n<p>UDA accused Gachagua of fabricating allegations linking senior officials\u2014including Embu Governor Cecily Mbarire and Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku\u2014to political interference, calling his claims \u201cthe product of a pregnant imagination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe names you dropped, including alleged close associates of the UDA Chairperson and the Cabinet Secretary, exist only in your imagination,\u201d Omar wrote.<\/p>\n<p>The party further claimed Gachagua\u2019s letter revealed the predictable floundering of a political figure whose career is collapsing under the weight of a publicly documented history of misdeeds.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u2018Routinely abusive\u2019 <\/h2>\n<p>UDA reminded the former Deputy President, impeached in 2024, of his past controversies, accusing him of routinely insulting other leaders and engaging in acts that tarnish his reputation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe nation remembers how, before and after your impeachment, you routinely used abusive, insulting, and offensive language against leaders who rejected your polarizing rhetoric,\u201d the party said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour record includes political thuggery, violence, looting, and the deeply embarrassing invasion and plunder of the sheep of a former Kenyan Head of State\u2014a permanent emblem of your character,\u201d Omar added.<\/p>\n<p>The party also ridiculed Gachagua\u2019s claim of a plot to castrate him upon arrival in Mbeere North, noting the absurdity of the allegation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe sheer absurdity of this claim is only surpassed by the irony that you are traveling to Mbeere North to campaign for a candidate belonging to another party,\u201d Omar said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cContrary to your wild allegations, the peace-loving people of Mbeere have no intentions of harming you or interfering with any part of your anatomy.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fraud <\/h2>\n<p>UDA further accused Gachagua of defrauding a parliamentary aspirant in Mbeere North by receiving substantial sums under the pretext of issuing a nomination certificate that never materialized.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBefore engaging in further theatrics, you need to address the brazen scandal where you swindled funds from a prospective Mbeere North parliamentary candidate under the guise of issuing a DCP Party nomination certificate,\u201d the letter stated.<\/p>\n<p>Senator Omar said residents of Mbeere North are demanding that Gachagua refund the money, framing it as a matter of integrity rather than politics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTheir ultimatum is clear: as you plan to set foot in Mbeere territory, prepare to refund every penny you swindled from their kinsmen,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The party also cautioned Gachagua against involving its candidate, Leo Wamuthende, in his melodramatic reactions, insisting that UDA\u2019s campaigns in Mbeere North have been peaceful and lawful.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUDA has conducted its campaigns with absolute tranquility and decorum, with zero incidents of violence recorded,\u201d the statement emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving historically anchored your politics on bitterness, antagonism, and thuggery, your current outburst is recognized for what it is\u2014a cynical ploy to create a pretext for violence,\u201d Omar asserted.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NAIROBI, Kenya, Nov 13 \u2013 The ruling United
