Uhuru Steps Down as Azimio Council Chair, Gachagua and Orengo Mentioned as Successors
Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has relinquished his position as chairperson of the Azimio la Umoja coalition’s Council, following the coalition’s reorganisation and rebranding as the Ukombozi Alliance.
Reports initially indicated that Rigathi Gachagua had been proposed to succeed Uhuru, with Siaya Governor James Orengo expected to serve as co-chair. However, subsequent reports said Orengo took over as Council chairman after the coalition’s September 21 reorganisation.
The leadership changes come as opposition parties restructure their alliance ahead of the 2027 General Election. #Uhuru #Elections2027 #Gachagua
