In the post, Ngunyi used a striking metaphor, describing Gachagua as "a blind man in a dark room chasing a black cat that is not there,” extending the analogy to the party and its perceived support base.
The remarks, clearly aimed at questioning the political direction and strategy of Gachagua’s emerging movement, quickly gained traction online.
Ngunyi framed his argument as a challenge to the Kikuyu electorate, suggesting that they are being led into a political pursuit lacking clarity, substance, or achievable goals.
To amplify engagement, the analyst attached a poll asking followers whether he was wrong.
Early results showed a majority agreeing with his assessment, while a significant minority disagreed or expressed confusion.
The poll attracted over a thousand votes within hours, reflecting the intense interest surrounding Gachagua’s political maneuvers ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The comments come at a time when Gachagua has been actively positioning himself as a central figure in opposition politics, particularly within the Mt Kenya region.
His efforts have been met with both enthusiasm and skepticism, highlighting deep divisions over leadership, strategy, and the region’s political future.
While supporters view Ngunyi’s remarks as a harsh but honest critique, critics argue that the language is dismissive and risks deepening ethnic and political tensions.
As political temperatures continue to rise, the exchange underscores how social media has become a battleground for shaping narratives, testing public opinion, and influencing voter sentiment long before the campaign season officially begins.
