NAIROBI, Kenya-Kiharu Member of Parliament Ndindi Nyoro has described Kenya’s current political landscape as lacking a credible opposition, warning that the nation risks unchecked governance.
Speaking to NTV, Nyoro said a government that exploits citizens’ lack of information becomes a “monster” — not only to the people but also to itself.
“The parties you know currently and the formations as they are now, none will be on the ballot in 2027,” he said, predicting major shifts in Kenya’s political scene ahead of the next general elections.
On whether he intends to vie for the presidency, Nyoro remained non-committal, choosing to focus on national issues over personal ambition.
“I find it unfair to keep talking about what I may become. I would rather talk about what Kenya will become,” he said. He added that his focus is on economic stability and governance, stressing that political positions are meaningless if the country itself is not secure economically.
Ndindi Nyoro: In Kenya now there is no opposition.When you have a government that can ride on the ignorance of the people not having information, they become a monster.The parties you know currently and the formations as they are now, none will be on the ballot in 2027.
Reflecting on the 2022 elections, Nyoro admitted that youth and inexperience led to “silly politics,” often resulting in personal clashes over power.
He said he has since redefined his political approach, emphasizing respect for others and issue-based leadership.
“I am not a moralist, but I have decided to define my politics going forward, and it will involve respecting people,” Nyoro said.
He also addressed past tensions involving former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, noting that he did not support efforts to impeach him and chose not to participate in divisive political campaigns.
“In politics, I decided that I will not have any enemies. Rigathi Gachagua is my friend. We spoke recently,” Nyoro said.
