Political analysts say the opposition’s best chance of defeating President William Ruto in the next General Election lies in rallying behind Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka as a single presidential candidate.
According to observers, Kalonzo’s long political experience, national appeal, and reputation as a consensus builder could make him the unifying figure needed to mount a credible challenge against the Kenya Kwanza administration.
“The opposition’s best chance at winning the presidential election is to unite behind Kalonzo Musyoka. With his leadership, they might just take it home. Otherwise, Ruto could be the winner,” one analyst noted.
However, with ongoing political realignments and shifting alliances expected ahead of the 2027 polls, it remains to be seen whether opposition leaders will put aside personal ambitions to forge a united front.
As the political landscape continues to evolve, all eyes are on how the opposition strategizes in the coming months — a move that could determine whether Kenya witnesses a fiercely competitive election or an easy win for the incumbent.
