Moses Kuria dares Gachagua to oath taking over alleged pre-election deal with Ruto
On Saturday, August 8, former Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria dared Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua to declare that he has not, and will not, make a pre-election deal with President William Ruto.
Kuria invoked Gachagua’s faith and told him to publicly swear by the holy book on his political relationship with his former boss.
He asked the former Deputy President to book an appointment with the moderator of the PCEA Church, for the public oath, adding that his wife, Pastor Dorcas Rigathi, should also be present.
“I challenge Rigathi Gachagua to lift the Bible in front of the cameras and say the following words: I, Rigathi Gachagua, do solemnly swear that I have not made a deal with President William Ruto, and that I, Rigathi Gachagua, will not make any deal with President William Ruto before 10th August 2027,” he wrote.
The former CS wants Gachagua to declare further that if he was not telling the truth under oath, then God should strike him with lightning and thunder.

Meanwhile, he warned the people from Mount Kenya that there is a likelihood that by 2027, they could be the only Kenyans left in the Opposition.
He argued that all the other leaders in the United Opposition were only courting the Mountain to get a share of the millions of votes in the region, but would dump them once they realised they would fail to secure the votes.
“Dear Mt. Kenya people. From what has happened this week, are there any doubts left that you are the only ones who are in the opposition with a view to sending Ruto home?
“All others are there so that your 8 million votes can make them President. If you don’t, they will vote for Ruto (And they have said it publicly). If you do, you will start singing’Wantam’ as early as January 2028,” he stated.
While opening DCP’s office in Kiambu, Gachagua maintained that he was the best-suited candidate in the Opposition to face President Ruto.
He argued that he had the numbers to unseat the incumbent Head of State, citing Nairobi, Mount Kenya Region and Maa Region as his support bases.
