Ndindi Nyoro, the Kiharu MP, has challenged Nyandarua Senator John Methu over allegations that President William Ruto bought the senator's home in 2024. The remarks came during a political rally in Kajiado County on October 13, 2026, where Nyoro defended his loyalty to the opposition and rejected Methu's claims that he was a mole for Ruto.
Methu, who is the DCP secretary-general designate, sparked the controversy by questioning Nyoro's commitment to the opposition's efforts to prevent Ruto from winning a second term in the 2027 General Election. Nyoro dismissed Methu's accusations and suggested that the senator should explain his own alleged connections with the head of state.
The allegations remain unverified. Nyoro also criticized Methu for discussing Ruto's meetings with opposition leaders on television, arguing that such exchanges distracted the opposition from its main goal of unifying against the president. He warned opposition leaders not to bring internal disagreements into public discussions and insisted that the coalition should focus on building a united front ahead of the 2027 election.
Nyoro highlighted a Ksh30 million payment and challenged Methu to provide explanations regarding his alleged dealings with Ruto. He urged opposition leaders to respect each other's positions and not engage in personal attacks. Nyoro also addressed their past disagreements, stating that they arose after Methu joined the People's Party of Kenya.
He recalled that the two met about two weeks before the Ol Kalou by-election to discuss fundraising, and Methu received money from Nyoro during their discussions. The opposition leader further alleged that funds collected for the Ol Kalou contest were not distributed as intended and that a car was purchased two days after their meeting.
Despite the accusations, Nyoro urged fellow opposition members to prioritize unity and concentrate on addressing Kenyans' concerns, rather than squabbling over who belongs in the opposition.
