Why 7 PM Broadcasts No Longer Excite Many Kenyans, Gachagua Alleges

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has intensified his criticism of President William Ruto, claiming that many Kenyans have lost interest in listening to the Head of State's televised addresses.

Speaking during a public meeting, Gachagua alleged that President Ruto's speeches no longer attract the attention they once did.

He claimed that many people now switch off their television sets whenever the President appears on screen, saying this reflects growing dissatisfaction among citizens.

According to Gachagua, many Kenyans are frustrated by the high cost of living, unemployment, and other economic challenges.

He argued that people are looking for practical solutions to their daily struggles rather than political speeches.

He said leaders should focus on addressing the issues affecting ordinary families instead of making promises that are not fulfilled.

The former Deputy President also said public trust is earned through actions rather than words.

He maintained that leaders should deliver development projects, create jobs, and improve the economy if they want to regain the confidence of the people.

His remarks come as political campaigns and debates continue to gather momentum ahead of the 2027 General Election.

Political leaders from both the government and the opposition have been holding rallies across the country to strengthen their support and share their vision with voters.

Supporters of Gachagua applauded his comments, saying they reflect the frustrations experienced by many Kenyans.

They argued that the government should pay more attention to the concerns raised by citizens and work harder to improve their lives.

However, supporters of President Ruto have defended the President, insisting that his administration is implementing major development projects and economic reforms.

They argue that such reforms take time to produce results and have urged Kenyans to be patient as the government continues with its plans.

Political analysts believe that strong exchanges between government and opposition leaders are likely to increase as the country moves closer to the next election.

They say both sides will continue presenting their arguments in an effort to win public support.
