The interaction took place amid renewed political discussions surrounding the 2022 presidential election and the decisions that shaped the contest.
Gachagua, who served as President William Ruto’s deputy before falling out with him, reportedly made remarks about Uhuru’s political choices during the election period, prompting laughter from the former Head of State.
Uhuru had supported Raila Odinga against Ruto in the 2022 General Election, despite having previously worked closely with the current President.
The political decision became a major talking point during the campaign, particularly because Uhuru and Ruto had governed together for nearly a decade before their relationship deteriorated.
Gachagua later became Ruto’s running mate and secured the deputy presidency following their election victory. However, his relationship with the President also collapsed, leading to his removal from office.
Since then, Gachagua has emerged as a vocal critic of the Kenya Kwanza administration. He has repeatedly accused Ruto of abandoning campaign promises and questioned the direction of the government.
His latest interaction with Uhuru has therefore attracted interest as political leaders begin positioning themselves ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The former President has recently urged opposition leaders, including Gachagua and Kalonzo Musyoka, to put aside personal ambitions and agree on one candidate to challenge Ruto.
The exact words exchanged between Gachagua and Uhuru, including the warning referenced in the headline, were not provided in the available account.
