In Murang'a, leaders from the United Alternative Government have denounced what they term as the illegal takeover of property belonging to Raphael Tuju, a former Cabinet minister. They voiced their concerns during an interdenominational church service, highlighting the importance of legal processes in handling property disputes. The leaders allege that the invasion of Tuju's property is not merely a private issue but is intertwined with the actions of senior government officials, underscoring a broader concern regarding governance and legality in property rights.

Rigathi Gachagua, leading the condemnation, emphasized that the only authority able to authorize police action in property issues is the President, making it crucial that any directives in such matters come through official channels. This reflects a larger sentiment of unease among the opposition regarding the handling of law and order under President William Ruto's administration. Gachagua's remarks not only call for legal adherence but also seek accountability from the government, suggesting that the current administration may overstep its bounds in property matters.

Additionally, Gachagua took the opportunity to criticize President Ruto's governance, claiming that the President is distracted by business ventures while the economy struggles. This criticism places pressure on the ruling government to address economic issues and reflect on their governance priorities. The stance taken by the opposition leaders signifies a heightened political tension in Kenya, particularly regarding issues of property rights, governance, and the accountability of those in power.
