Nyaribari Masaba's MP Dr Daniel Manduku has urged the Gusii community to support President William Ruto, stating that the region would benefit more from aligning with the government than joining an opposition coalition ahead of the 2027 General Election. The politician questioned the political future of former Interior Cabinet Secretary Dr Fred Matiang’i, alleging that opposition alliances were not offering him a presidential ticket.
Manduku claimed that former President Uhuru Kenyatta, who he described as Matiang’i's political sponsor, had distanced himself from the former Cabinet secretary, leaving him stranded. He challenged Matiang’i to reconsider his political strategy and work with President Ruto, stating that the Gusii community should not invest its political resources in an alliance with uncertain power prospects.
Manduku emphasized the importance of supporting Ruto to gain greater influence in national decision-making and secure development projects for the region.
