Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has broken his silence on the country’s political direction, offering strategic advice to the United opposition ahead of the 2027 General Election.
In a video that has since gone viral, the former Head of State urged opposition leaders to prioritize unity if they hope to mount a formidable challenge against the ruling administration.
Uhuru, who has largely kept a low political profile since leaving office, emphasized that internal divisions could significantly weaken their chances at the ballot.
According to the video seen by us, Uhuru cautioned that a fragmented opposition would struggle to gain the trust and confidence of Kenyans.
He advised leaders to set aside personal interests and instead focus on building a cohesive front that resonates with wananchi across the country.

“Stay united and speak with one voice,” Uhuru is heard saying, underscoring the importance of solidarity in competitive politics. He noted that unity alone, however, would not be enough without actively engaging the public.
The former president further challenged opposition figures to pay close attention to the needs and concerns of ordinary citizens.
He stressed that listening to Kenyans and addressing their issues sincerely would be key to gaining widespread support.
Uhuru’s remarks come at a time when political realignments continue to shape the country’s landscape, with various leaders positioning themselves ahead of the next election cycle.
His sentiments are likely to spark debate within opposition ranks, many of whom have struggled to maintain a common agenda.
Political analysts say Uhuru’s message reflects lessons from past elections, where disunity among rival camps often influenced outcomes. As the 2027 race gradually takes shape, his call for unity and grassroots engagement may prove pivotal for those seeking to unseat the current regime.
