Peninnah Gathoni Muchomba, known as Gathoni Wa Mucomba, is a Kenyan politician, journalist, and entrepreneur currently serving as the Member of Parliament for Githunguri Constituency.
Recently, she sparked an intense debate on Kenyan social media with a post questioning the alleged denial of Pastor Dorcas Rigathi’s access to her belongings at the Karen residence.
In her bold style, Wamuchomba posted, “Nguo za mchungaji munafungia huko Karen za nini?” (Why are you locking the Pastor’s clothes in Karen?), igniting reactions that highlight frustrations and political tensions. She added a pointed reminder, “Power is transient,” underlining the fleeting nature of political influence.
This incident centres on claims that President William Ruto’s government barred Dorcas Rigathi, the wife of former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, from collecting personal items from their previous home. This seemingly minor issue has significant implications, shedding light on shifting power dynamics within Kenya’s elite circles.
Many have questioned why the Rigathis did not retrieve their belongings when leaving the residence, suggesting they might have clung to hopes of a political comeback.
Social media reactions are divided: some sympathise with the former Deputy President, while others argue that “power is transient” and warn against arrogance. This controversy reminds Kenyans that in the political game, no position is ever truly secure.
