Former Nyeri Town Member of Parliament Ngunjiri Wambugu has responded to remarks made by Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua regarding his fellow politician, Ndindi Nyoro. Wambugu posted on his Facebook account that Gachagua seems to harbor a dislike for independent-minded individuals. This comes after Gachagua's recent comments suggesting that opposing independent political actors would result in being labeled a "mole."

Wambugu emphasized that regardless of one's stance on the impeachment or personal feelings towards Gachagua, remaining independent should not result in such a label. The former Nyeri MP's response adds to the political discourse surrounding the opposition's unity ahead of the 2027 General Election, as leaders grapple with forming a cohesive front or allowing for independent political identities.
