Gachagua is once again on the spotlight after Kasmuel McOure claimed that the former Deputy President openly encouraged voters to “eat” politicians’ money during campaigns.
According to McOure, Gachagua has been on record telling voters that when politicians visit them with handouts, they should take the money without hesitation. McOure argues that this kind of messaging undermines the integrity of elections and fuels a culture where leaders use cash to influence votes instead of presenting real development plans.
He further warned that such statements normalize bribery and weaken democracy, especially at a time when Kenyans are demanding accountability from their leaders. McOure is urging voters to reject leaders who rely on handouts and instead support those with clear policies and a genuine desire to serve the country.
The debate has sparked reactions online, with many Kenyans questioning whether political bribery has now become an openly accepted practice in the country.
