Murang’a Senator, Joe Nyutu has refuted claims that Ndindi Nyoro is President William Ruto’s project in the Mount Kenya Region.
Speaking in an interview with TV47 on March 19, 2025, Nyutu revealed the tensions that led to the rift between the two claiming that the President has taken a stance against those who did not support the impeachment of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
He claimed that Nyoro as one of the key figures who defied the president’s expectations and stayed away from Gachagua’s impeachment.
“President Ruto will never forgive anyone who either voted no or abstained against the impeachment motion of former DP Rigathi Gachagua which is what Ndindi Nyoro did” the Murang’a Senator said.
“The cardinal sin that Ndindi Nyoro did was refusing to be used by President Ruto to impeach Gachagua. That is why he says that the last time he had any conversation with the President was in October 2024” he added.
Nyoro on the other hand while speaking in an interview in his office stated that he last spoke with Ruto in October 2024 but was hesitant to reveal the theme of the discussion noting that it was a political conversation.
