According to accounts shared by attendees of a closed-door discussion, the President is said to have pushed back strongly after a proposal linked to former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua calling for the removal of Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen and Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo.
The Head of State, in remarks widely shared online but not officially confirmed, is quoted as saying, “Hakuna mtu sisi tutatoa kwa ofisi,” a statement interpreted to mean that no official will be removed from office under external pressure.
The alleged exchange has ignited conversation across political camps, with supporters of the administration viewing it as a signal of firmness in defending institutional stability, while critics argue it reflects deepening cracks within the ruling coalition.
The claims come at a time when political realignments and succession politics are increasingly shaping national discourse ahead of the 2027 elections.
Both allies and rivals of the Kenya Kwanza government have intensified their public engagements, with each side attempting to consolidate influence in key regions.
However, no official statement has been issued by State House regarding the alleged remarks or the reported directive involving Murkomen and Omollo.
Senior government officials who were reached for comment declined to confirm the authenticity of the exchange, urging the public to rely on verified communications.
Political analysts note that such narratives often gain traction during periods of heightened political activity, especially when coalition partners publicly disagree on governance decisions.
As discussions continue online and in political forums, attention now turns to whether the leadership will address the matter directly or allow the speculation to fade amid ongoing national priorities.
