Former Kiambu Governor and aspirant William Kabogo has broken silence just a day after an ugly clash with Wamatangi during Kenya Kwanza rally in Kiambu.
According to Kabogo, he is taking blame on DP Ruto’s runningmate Rigathi Gachagua.
Speaking during a rally in Kiambu on Thursday, Kabogo launched a series of attacks on Gachagua claiming to be a dictator who was unsuitable to be Ruto’s deputy.
In a video spotted by Mkenya Leo, he claimed that the tUDA was trying to force them to support Wamatangi for the governor seat.
“Ati wanatuambia lazima tutachagua Wamatangi, hiyo ndio maneno mnataka nyinyi? Kesho huyo Rigathi Gachagua atakuja hapa. Kabla ya kuchaguliwa Rigathi Gachagua na William Ruto, mimi nilikua nimepinga,” he said.
“Amechaguliwa ndo maneno ya UDA na sisi imeanza kusoroteka. Kwa sababu huyo jamaa ni dikteta. Makosa yangu nikusema kweli kwa sababu niliambia Ruto atapoteza kura mingi kwa huyu jamaa. ”

Kabogo intimated that he was about to embark on a new political chapter in his life, as evidenced by his decision to travel to Thika to address his fans.
“Mimi nimerudi hapa kwa sababa nataka kuanza safari mpya. Sipendi kwenda bila kufika nyumbani. Nimeona William Ruto na chama yake ya JUDA wanataka kumeza vyama vyote. Na mimi nimekataa Kumezwa.”
