Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua on Monday, March 17, made a startling revelation on alleged demands made by former Prime Minister Raila Odinga to President William Ruto before they signed a Memorandum of Understanding.

Speaking during an exclusive interview with Kameme FM, Gachagua claimed that Odinga had come up with demands, including more Cabinet Secretary and Principal Secretary positions for Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Party members. "For Raila to support the President, he demanded six cabinet positions just the way we had asked for eight positions in exchange for our votes because that is how a government operates," Gachagua revealed.

In a more damning revelation, Gachagua claimed that bigger changes were imminent as the process of restructuring the principal secretary positions had already kicked off.
