24 MCAs from Laikipia and Nakuru Join Gachagua’s DCP Wave
Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has announced that he received 24 sitting Members of County Assembly from Laikipia and Nakuru counties at his Wamunyoro residence.
In a statement, Gachagua claimed that a mass exodus from UDA, TSP and other parties he referred to as “wheelbarrow outfits” to the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) is gaining momentum, predicting that by December those parties “will be mere shells.”
The visit comes shortly after the Nyandarua Senator joined DCP.
Among the Laikipia MCAs who paid the visit were:
Hon. Paul Kirenyi Leshuel – Mukogodo East Ward
Hon. Nicholas Mwaniki Muturi – Tigithi Ward
Hon. Irene Wachuka – Igwamiti Ward
Hon. Catherine Nyokabi Kibui – Ngobit Ward
Hon. Daniel Mugweru Muchemi – Umande Ward
Hon. Simon Kanyutu Kimani – Marmanet Ward
Hon. Samuel Mugambi Gatati – Salama Ward
Hon. Stephen Ndiritu Kamau – Thingithu Ward
Hon. Anthony Theuri Wambui – Nanyuki Ward
Hon. George Karuiru Wairimu – Ol-Moran Ward
Hon. Joseph Gitahi Macharia – Githiga Ward
Hon. Mary Gathoni Muriuki – Specially Elected MCA
From Nakuru, the MCAs included:
Hon. Philip Wanjohi Ndiritu – Lare Ward
Hon. John Mwangi Macharia – Turi Ward
Hon. Jane Wanjiru Gituku – Maella Ward
Hon. Ann Njaguara – Nominated MCA
Hon. Paul Kipkorir Tuwei – Kiamaina Ward
Hon. George Wang’ang’a Mwaura – Elementaita Ward
Hon. Simon Kamau Karanja – Kihingo Ward

Hon. Wathiai – Shaabab Ward
Hon. Eliud Kamau Chege – Mai Mahiu Ward
Hon. Peter Njuguna Mwaura – Elburgon Ward
Hon. Karanja – Aspirant, Molo Ward
Hon. Isabella Makori – Subukia Ward
Gachagua ended the statement with the slogan: “Green is Wealth, Green is the future.”
Questions on the ground:
How significant is this wave of MCA defections for the 2027 political realignment?
Will more elected leaders from other counties follow the Laikipia and Nakuru group?
How will UDA and other parties respond to the growing exits?
Political realignments continue to intensify across the country as 2027 approaches.
Stay informed. Stay ahead.
