Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua has challenged accusations that he is the source of divisions among opposition leaders, insisting that he is instead the "glue" holding them together. During a church service in Kiambu County, Gachagua rebuffed a TIFA poll that labeled him as divisive and addressed President William Ruto's efforts to divide opposition leaders, stating that none were available to be drawn away.
Additionally, Gachagua raised concerns over the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) preparedness for the 2027 General Election, warning that the commission's potential disruption due to its contract with Smartmatic could impact voter registration. He also accused the commission of bias in voter registration, alleging that it is being conducted in pro-government areas while opposition strongholds are being overlooked.
Gachagua has stated that the opposition will formally write to the commission to discuss the electoral system and other concerns, and questioned IEBC's choice of the Miru system, urging the commission to consider alternative options.
