The TIFA Research’s national survey that uncovers hidden facts has always been a turning point in political dealings. Literally, the elections in 2027 would hinge on the results of this survey that has presented a divided country over President William Ruto’s reelection. According to these findings, the voters are very much like a volcano waiting to erupt. As passionate allegiances have turned extinct due to the new all-inclusive government.
The poll implies that the traditional ‘death’ of the opposition has brought about a precarious and dubious political situation. The Ruler has been able to sidestep his former opponents, but this has resulted in an alienation of a vast number of people who are left without any political representation.
The commentators now indicate that a ‘Shadow Resistance’ is taking place among the common folk, far from Cabinet influence.The country is now divided into two widely ranged and irreconcilable camps.
There is a faction that thinks that the new administration’s consolidation of power through the Cabinet has made re-election of President Ruto a simple matter of figures. They state that the administration has opened its way to 2027 by neutralizing the two large voting blocs in Nyanza and Western.
But at the same time, the other camp of equal size that exists in the country sees this power-sharing arrangement as a denial of the democratic process.
For the latter group, the presence of opposition politicians in the government has not improved the situation regarding the high cost of living and the health crisis. Rather, it has created a feeling of discontent that could erupt at the time of the coming general elections.

The data from the TIFA suggests that there is an emerging pattern where people are annihilating the names that have always been synonymous with political power.

By effectively organizing opposition, President Ruto has created an unorganized, yet volatile, movement that is hard to control. Such a movement cannot be subdued since it does not have a leader whose power can be snuffed out.The survey predicts that the biggest obstacle to a win in 2027 is not a specific candidate.
Instead, it is the widespread feeling of the electorate saying they do not want any of the candidates who are being put forward that is growing everywhere in the country and is quite hard to predict.
This unpredictable force makes political parties and their strategies less relevant.The Nyanza region continues to be the center of skepticism, which is in direct contradiction to the recent assertions made by the government officials.

The voters seem to be united in their resolve to turn their backs on any leader who would rather hold a Cabinet position than attend to the people’s needs.
