Moses Kuria has stirred political debate after alleging that influential individuals are secretly shaping the 2027 Nairobi gubernatorial contest.
Speaking pointedly Kuria claimed that powerful people summoned Makadara MP George Aladwa and pressured him to abandon a political pact that had been taking shape behind the scenes.
Kuria criticised the move as premature political interference saying those involved had let the cat out of the bag too early unintentionally exposing their broader 2027 strategy.
His remarks hinted at growing tensions within political circles as succession plans and alliances begin to form well ahead of the next general election.
The controversy centres on an emerging partnership in which Kuria formerly Public Service Cabinet Secretary had hinted at selecting Aladwa as his running mate for the Nairobi governorship.
The potential alliance had sparked interest given Aladwa’s grassroots influence and Kuria’s national political profile.
However Kuria now suggests that external pressure has disrupted those plans raising questions about who is pulling the strings and why.
Although Aladwa has yet to publicly respond to the claims Kuria’s revelations have revived discussions on political manipulation, elite interests and backroom dealings within Kenya’s electoral landscape.
With the Nairobi race traditionally attracting high political stakes the unfolding drama signals that the road to 2027 will be anything but predictable.
As alliances shift and political camps recalibrate Kuria’s bold accusations have set the stage for intensified scrutiny of the forces shaping Nairobi’s Future.
