Ex-Governor’s Stark Warning to Kalonzo on Mt Kenya Alliance
Former Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana has warned Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka about seeking support from the Mt Kenya region in preparation for the 2027 general election.
In a statement released on Tuesday, July 30, Kibwana suggested that the former vice president was receiving poor advice from his advisors.
The former governor questioned why Kalonzo claimed to be combating tribalism while simultaneously seeking support from the Mt Kenya region.
Kibwana noted that national ideology is likely to prevail over tribal politics in the upcoming 2027 general election.
“Just my two cents, Kalonzo Musyoka your inner circle is misadvising you. How can you say you are fighting tribalism as the tribeless Gen Zs and then in the same breath state you are courting Mt Kenya? In 2027, national ideology will triumph over tribal politics,” said the former Makueni Governor.

Following Kalonzo’s recent initiative to bring together the Kikuyu and Kamba communities in preparation for the upcoming general election, he committed to collaborate with leaders from the Mt Kenya region.
During a church event in Othaya, Nyeri County on Friday, Kalonzo assured his active involvement with the regional leaders of Mt Kenya.
“We are building a strong team and we are inviting all leaders who want to change Kenya in real-time and in the right direction. Without fear of intimidation, I have just talked to Uhuru on the phone before coming to this place. Uhuru had forewarned you and we want such straightforward leaders,” said Kalonzo.
The leader of the Wiper party revealed that he has been in discussions with Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
Kalonzo was joined by Jubilee Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni, former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu, and DAP-K leader Eugine Wamalwa.
